Chapter 6

The Dreaded Dinner

Disclaimer:

Kiba: Why were you so mean to me? You have to be mean to Hige?

Hige: (Walks up to the camera) It's a good thing

Toboe: Stop doing the Martha Stewart thing! And I can do anything I want to Kiba, I'm

your master

Kiba: No ones my master!

Mika: (pops out of nowhere giving everyone quite a fright) Yes she is! She could kill

you in two words. By the way that is my idea not Toboe's.

Kiba: No she couldn't

Mika: Toboe say (whispers something in her ear)

Toboe: I don't want to walk up dead tomorrow

Mika: (evil stare)

Toboe: O.K! Don't hurt me! (looks at Kiba) Sorry (clears her throat and gives another

sad glance at Kiba) Kiba all of the sudden realizes all his hair has disappeared

Kiba: (his hair starts to fall of) No my wonderful sexy hair! I can't have fan girls without

it! I'm sorry! (Kiba's fan girls start riot out side the windows)

Toboe: Okay It comes back (every thing rewinds) okay on with the story. (Fan girls start

cheering)

Mika: Remember that's my idea!


Tsume was running on a lake shore, his powerful hind legs pushing ageist the deep snow covering the ground quickly as he chased his prey. The elk was larger but Tsume was faster, closer and closer almost touching it. He could already taste it. He did one final lunge then "I need help," woke him from his dreams. It was the same dream he always was having, of his Paradise. The fist time he had that dream was when Cheza had hummed to the four of them her song. "Come on!" the voice yelled again. Tsume struggled to open his eyes to see Cher in the front door carrying three large bags, several smelling pretty appetizing. "What's in them," Tsume said as he walked over to her. "Toys, dog treats, dog food, among other things now help!" Tsume sighed and went to help her out.

"Okay, I bought every thing a dog could what," Cher said as she started pulling things out, "I'm going to give each of you a task, okay?" "Okay," Blue said, "but why?" Cher grinned sheepishly at the three wolves and the half-wolf lined up in front of her. "When those people and I were in the waiting room they asked me a lot of questions about you so they think you have all been my pets for a few years now. I also told them that you were very well trained and so we don't raise any suspicion you need to pretend that you have all been my pets for a long time and you are very well trained." Tsume growled at this 'I won't be anyone's pet' he thought. "Don't worry" Cher said to Tsume as if reading his thoughts "I told them that you and Kiba didn't like strangers. Anyway Kiba I got you forest green water and food dish, Tsume purple, Blue blue, Toboe white, and Hige black," every time she named something she pulled it out, " and I also got Hige a black bed." "Anything else" Blue said.

"Yeh! A few dog bones, dog toys, dog food, and dog treats. I figured if those people want you to do tricks…"

"We're not freaking dogs!" Tsume growled. "Yes… but your pretending" Cher snapped back. "I don't mind they smell good," Blue said. "Anyway, Blue I want you to chew up the bones, Toboe the toys, and Tsume and Kiba set up the bowls and stuff then help Toboe and Blue." Cher quickly ran into the kitchen where she started preparing the elaborate dinner she planned.

"How dose this look?" Cher asked Blue. They were in Cher's modest bedroom. Blue, in her human form, was lounging in one of the purple chairs in the corner. "Fine," Blue said in an exasperated tone, "are you done." "Now… it just doesn't suite me" Cher said and pulled of the blue dress she had on and started rummaging thought the closet. "This one" Blue said and pulled out a shiny black dress from the bottom of the drawer.

"Where did that come from?"

"Dunno"

Cher slipped on the silky dress and Blue gave a low whistle, "Go show the boys" "Na..." Cher said with a grin. "Come on..." Blue grabbed her wrist and pulled her through the door. "Hey boys what do you think?" she called. Cher blushed and turned around. The three wolves were all in human form. Tsume was sitting on the couch and Kiba was on the blue-violet loveseat again. Toboe had fallen asleep on the floor and was snoring peacefully. Tsume gave him a kick "What!" Toboe said as he jumped up, "Oh! Hello Lady you look nice." "Call her by her name Runt" Tsume said and pushed Toboe over with his foot. "Hey that-"

Ding Dong

(it's in big bolded letters cause I felt like doing that)

"Their here!" Cher said and took a quick glance around. To the casual observer the four wolves looked like any other really large dumb dog. "Toboe, Blue most dogs go nuts when people come to the door." "Right on it" said Blue as she raced to the door followed closely by Toboe. They started pawing at door giving the occasional bark.

Tsume gave them a look of disgust and Kiba picked up a bone distinctively lying down and holding it in his paws with his head cocked to the door. Cher gave him a 'thank you' look and went to open the door. "Blue! Toboe! Heel" Cher said as she walked to the door. They insanity stopped and looked at her "Hi Cher" Aimee said as Cher opened the door. She was wearing a back skirt and an expensive looking fashionable top and was clasping Ed's hand, who was in black pants but this time with a black long sleeved jacket. Megan was standing next to Roy who had his arms clasped around her. Roy was wearing blue pants and a blue jacket and Megan was wearing a yellow dress with a green jacket. Cher shivered in the cold night air. A lot had happened these past few hours. "Would you like to come in?" Cher said her voice making a white cloud above her head. "That would be great Cher" Roy said. When they got in Megan bent down to pet Toboe. She lifted her hand into the air and just held it up there. Toboe sniffed it and slowly rubbed his head ageist her palm. "We didn't really get to meet your other dogs" Roy said as he started to pet Toboe's back. Aimee started petting Blue's back and Ed started rubbing her head.

"That was great Cher," Aimee said as she whipped her face. The others were finishing up to and all murmured their compliments at the delicious dinner.

"Thank you"

"Well," Ed said looking at his pocket watch, "We still have a while before we can go get your dog." "Well," Cher said "we can sit in the living room." Cher pulled over another chair and joined them. Megan and Roy had squeezed onto the love seat while Aimee had thrown herself on the couch, stretching her legs across it, and took up almost all the room with Ed squeezed on the end. "Move over" he said pushing her legs. "Shut up Shortly" She replied and hit him the head with her foot. "WHO ARE YOU CALLING SHORT YOU PICKSQUECK?"

"WHAT"

The two started bickering earnestly. "Shudup you two we are at someone's house" Megan said, "Don't worry they do this all the time." Cher was deeply disturbed by their actions but tried to act cool. "So…." Roy said trying to ignore the bickering couple, "Can your dogs do some tricks?"

"Umm…"

"Come here boy" Megan said to Toboe not patient enough to wait for a response. Toboe gave a quick glace at Cher then tensely walked over to her. "Good boy" she said and rubbed his ears.

"Sit boy"

He sat

"Here. I have dog treats in the kitchen" Cher, Roy, and Megan all walked into her kitchen. "Your kitchen is pretty" Megan said glancing at the green walls and sparse furniture as she and Roy sat at the kitchen table. "Would you like some coco?" Cher questioned.

"Yes please… do you have any popcorn?"

Cher brought three steaming mugs and a bag of popcorn over to the table and slid into a chair. She sat gazing out of the window into the snowing blackness. They had been there for awhile chatting and making Blue do tricks when all of the sudden Roy cupped a hand to his ear and said "Do you hear that?" "I don't hear anything Roy?" Cher said. "Exactly! No fighting! I wonder what is going on in there." They got out of the chairs and walked over to the living room.

Toboe was crouched on the floor whinnying and crawling away from the loveseat. Kiba had a paw over his eyes and Tsume was looking appalled. On the couch Aimee and Ed were deeply involved with each other. "Ahum!" Megan said, "AHUM!" Aimee quickly pulled her head away from Ed's as if startled. "Um… We are watching the dogs do tricks in the um… kitchen" Cher said. Megan unlike Cher was right to the point, "We are in someone's house you two…. And you're scarring Toboe." The wolf was crouched on the ground his eyes wide. Aimee bushed. "Well anyway Toboe knows some pretty unusual tricks." "Really?" Aimee said, "Okay then rollover Toboe" The little wolf rolled over and sighed to himself. This was going to be a long night.


Toboe: That was sooo slow (sighs) The next chapter Other Stuff will be out soon. Please Reveiw!
