Disclaimer: I don't own Wolf's Rain!
Luna: Yay reviews! Okay, this chapter is based off the 1st Wolf's Rain manga. Mostly centered around Toboe I know I did it out of order of what happens in the manga…but there's a reason for that…I think…Anyways, enjoy! Oh and the reviewer responses are at the end.
Chapter3
Kiba and his pack of idiots had managed to go a couple of feet until some armed men stopped them.
" You're outsiders!" the man announced, " We can't let outsiders in!"
" uh…" said Hige, " You already did. I already was there and I ate your hotdogs."
The armed men simply stared. Kiba was too busy with his perfume bottle to really care, Toboe was too busy trying to his uh…family jewels and Tsume simply stated, " Do you really believe that you ate their hotdogs?"
One of the armed men shifted from foot to foot and whispered to his partner, " Did we forget to stop the outsiders? Again?"
The other one blinked and said, " I think so…"
" Then we'll just be on our way." said Kiba.
" Stop right there!" shouted the man, pointing his gun at Kiba, " Get out! GET OUT OF OUR VILLAGE! We can't let the outsiders in! Or bad stuff will happen!"
" We are out of the village…" stated Kiba, confused.
" Oh yeah," said Hige, rolling his eyes, " Bad stuff like making profits off tourist traps."
" Exactly!" agreed the man.
" I was…kidding."
Too late. The armed men opened fire on the wolves, causing them all to scatter. Toboe could barely move, so he did the only thing he could do. Tear off his leather pants and run around in his pink thong. This did work in his advantage, because most of the armed men were too stunned from his undergarments to target him.
Kiba ran off in another direction, and managed to hide unscathed. But the 'Lunar Flower' wasn't as lucky. It shattered once a bullet pierced it, and Kiba began to weep; perfume all over his shirt and hands.
As for Tsume…well, no one really cares where he ran. And no one gives a damn about Hige either.
" Today sucks ass," decided Toboe, running in the forest.
Eventually, he tripped flat on his face. A girl about his age with a long, black braid stopped by him, carrying a flower basket.
" Are you hurt? Are you okay? Are you depressed? Are you constipated?" she asked.
" No, no, a little and…not really," answered Tobeo, " I'm fine! See, I can stand up!"
She stared at him and then said, " …Your not wearing pants."
" I know…it's a long story." he said.
" Shh…they'll hear you and probably arrest you for indecent exposure," she said, " Follow me."
She led him to her cottage, not too far off.
Toboe sat in her kitchen chair, and she rummaged through some drawers and said, " I'm sorry. I only have a few medical herbs and some weed."
" Weed…?" asked Tobeo.
" Uh…never mind. And I…don't have any pants. But I do have a skirt…"
Tobeo decided that this day went from suck to major suck in the matter of minutes, so he decided he might as well go all the way.
" Okay…" he said.
" My name is Tia," the girl introduced herself, and handed him a brown skirt.
" Toboe!" he said, as he put on the skirt.
" You see that sapling over there?" asked Tia.
" Uh-huh."
" That's my only friend…" she said, and began petting the pot, a large grin on her face, " I give it water from the hill-"
Toboe was scared of this girl and her odd relationship with the flower. And he was bored.
" And moonlight-"
Tobeo yawned. Who cares? He thought, Its just a stupid flower…
" And the occasional human brain-"
His eyes widened at that and said hastily, " I think the flower will bloom!"
" Really?" asked Tia, brightening.
" No." said Tobeo.
Just then, there was loud knocking at the door.
" Tia!" screamed the voice on the other side, " You wouldn't happening to be hiding an outsider, fem-male with no pants, now would you?"
" N-no!" she said, and she whispered to Tobeo, " You have to go!"
Toboe didn't hesitate, and jumped out the nearest window.
He rejoined his fellow wolves and a teary eyed Kiba. They eventually out ran the psycho gun tooters.
" Wow, nice skirt, Toboe!" snickered Hige.
Toboe gave him a death glare.
" Do you really believe it's a nice skirt?" asked Tsume.
" Go die." said Hige, annoyed.
That's when Kiba broke them the news.
" The Lunar Flower…is dead!" he cried, in agony, " All GONE!"
" What? How?" asked Hige.
" A bullet…and…it happened so fast!"
" Well, that explains that fruity smell…" said Toboe.
" I have an idea," said Hige, " Why don't we find the weird blind, clerk girl and make her give us a refund on it. It is perfume after all…"
" Does anyone else wonder what the hell perfume has to do with Paradise?" asked Tobeo.
Everyone ignored his odd and rare stroke of brilliance.
" Great idea, Hige!" said Kiba, brightening, " Let's go!"
