Sorry everyone about not posting this sooner. I have a lot of stuff to go through and this is taking up a lot of my time. Gomen nasi-PIYOKO
The days passed and Kiba's wounds slowly healed. Soon he was well enough to stand and walk around. Mika nursed him and as soon as he made a full recovery, he was erging to continue on the road to Paradise once again. He paced around the house, waiting for Mika but also thinking of Cheza.
"I hope she's alright..."Kiba said to himself.
Mika came out from the other room. She was in her wolf form. Around her neck was a silver bandana with the Japanese symbol for HOPE scattered acrossed it. She looked at Kiba with sodden eyes.
"Are you ready,Kiba?" she asked.
"Yes,let's go." he answered.
They walked out the front door and out into the snow. Mika looked at her house and bit her paw. Some blood trickled from it. Using that paw,she smeared an X across the door.
"What's that for?" Kiba asked.
"It's the symbol that a wolf has lived here and is now gone. Come,let's go.We have a long journey ahead of us."
The two started to run across the snow at a steady pace, making sure that they would not be spotted by the nobles or the humans. The days turned into a week and they had not eaten anything but instead basked in the moonlight as Mika had said before.
"So,where did this DARCIA take your friend?"Mika called out to Kiba.
"I'm not sure, but it was far off into the distance. We must find my comrads, Hige, Tsume and Toboe before anything else. Without them, we'll not stand a chance."
"Right! Then we'd better hurry! It's almost sun-up. The nobles patrol then."
Kiba and Mika both picked up speed and ran faster. In the distance they saw some iced caverns.
"There! We'll hide there!" Mika shouted.
They reached the caverns and started to walk inside. But then, suddenly, they heard voices. Human voices. They were getting closer and closer. Kiba and Mika reverted back to their "HUMAN" forms and hid behind an ice boulder.
"It's a good thing we caught those wolves. They were trying to get to that PARADISE before Master Darcia. But we solved that. We took the Flower Maiden and injured them all, making them easy to catch. It's a shame we lost the white one. Could've got a good price for his head."
Kiba and Mika watched the men walk past them and out into the snow. Moments later, a whole army of the Nobles followed out. It wasn't until after they were gone that the two decided to make a move.
"So it's these bastards that have the others." Kiba cursed.
"Then we've got to rescue them!" Mika said in a determined tone.
They dashed down the tavern until they came to an open area where all their technology was set up. Hige, Tsume and Toboe were all unconcious behind metal cages. They ran over to them.
"Hige! Tsume! Toboe!Are you guys still alive!" Kiba shouted.
Hige was the first to open his eyes. He looked up at Kiba and smiled weakly.
"Hey...thought you didn't care about us anymore..."he said jokingly.
Mika successfully woke Toboe as did Kiba to Tsume. They all were astounded by Kiba's return but they were also confused as to why Mika was there.
"Who's that?" Toboe asked, pointing at Mika.
"Better not be a human, Kiba, or I'll rip her to shreds!" Tsume threatened.
"Nevermind. Let's get you out of these cages."
They worked for a few moments before Kiba's strong fangs bent the steel bars and freed them. They all filed out and took off back down the tavern. Hige turned to Mika and looked strangely at her.
"Well, you're not Cheza that's for sure. Who are you anyway?" he asked.
"My name is Mika. I'm---"
"She's a wolf." Kiba interrupted.
Hige, Tsume and Toboe all looked at her. It was a long time since they last saw the female of their species.
"Wow! A female wolf! I thought we were the only ones left." Toboe said.
Tsume rolled his almond shaped eyes and turned to Kiba.
"She's not working for the Nobles is she?" he asked.
"No. She's looking for Paradise.She said she would help us get Cheza back."
Tsume turned and faced what was infront of him.
"You'd better be right." he growled.
As soon as they reached the exit, they heard the Nobles returning to their hide-away. They hid themselves as they all passed by, laughing and talking about good times passed. The wolves filed outside one by one carefully as to not make any noises that would startle the guards. Suddenly, there came a loud bellow.
"THE WOLVES! THEY'RE GONE!" a guard shouted.
The whole place was in an uproar, giving them time to make it back into the snow once again...
