A/N: HI! Sry the last chapter was short!

Disclaimer: I'm not sure if I hav 2 do this every chapta, but o well! I don't own :sigh: ANYONE from Wolf's Rain. NOT EVEN TOBOE! WAHHHH!

"Oh no!" Toboe thought. "I'm dead!" He shut his eyes, waiting for a bullet to pierce his flesh, but it never happened. He heard a scream and blood splattered onto his fur. He opened his eyes to see Tsume fighting off one of the two left. He had his jaws gripped around one poachers throat and the other was holding a gun, trying to get aim on Tsume, but he never fired, afraid of hitting his companion.

"Run, kid!" Tsume said through clenched jaws. He had almost killed the man, but he just wanted to be sure. He looked over at a shuddering Toboe. The rain had turned to snow now and Tsume couldn't see the bullet in Toboe's paw. "RUN!" he said again. But Toboe was completely still (with the exception of shaking.)

BAM! A gunshot fired and hit Tsume in the stomach. He went flying into the icy snow. He was limp and couldn't get up. The man with the gun turned to Toboe. A wave of fear struck over him. His brain was telling him to move, but his legs wouldn't respond. "Oh shit. Oh shit. Oh shit. Oh shit!" That was the only thought repeating in his mind. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He knew he was going to die on the spot. The gun fired, but nothing happened. He heard a thud and looked up. It was Kiba and Hige! "I'm saved!" thought Toboe in relief.

The last man left standing ran off in fear. Toboe limped over to Tsume. "Tsume?" He asked, almost in tears. Kiba had ran off after the last poacher to make sure he was killed.

"You OK?" Hige asked with a concerned look on his face.

"Yeah. I'm fine," Toboe lied. He was almost hysterical, now. "Hige?" He sniffed. "Do you think Tsume is dead?"

Hige could feel Toboe's feelings. "No. He'll be fine." He said, unsure.

Kiba came running up to the others. "Are they alright?" He said, gesturing to Toboe and Tsume.

"Well…" Hige's voice trailed off.

"I'm fine, but what about Tsume?" Toboe, still in tears, asked.

Kiba noticed the bullet in Toboe's hand. (A/N: They're all back in human form now! Sry! I frgt to mention it!) "Hige, Toboe! Take Tsume back to the cave. I'll be back."

"WAIT! Where're you goin'?" Asked Hige.

"I'm gonna go find some herbs for Tsume and Toboe." Kiba replied. And with that, he ran off.

"Toboe?" Hige asked himself. "Did you get hurt?" He said, now directing the question to Toboe.

"Umm…" He didn't want anyone to know. He wanted all the attention to be directed to Tsume at the moment. "Well, sort of. But its nothing to be concerned about! Tsume is hurt! We need to help him!"

"Hmm… whatever you say, kid." They turned wolf and Toboe helped Hige put Tsume on his back. At that they took off.

Meanwhile, Kiba was getting some herbs. Thoughts were running through his mind. He kept wonderin' if Tsume was gonna be alright.

He found about 7 different herbs and got 3 of each. (A/N: That would be 21, right? I'm in 8th grade and I'm still not that good at my times tables, but I still get A's on my tests! J!) So, with the herbs in his mouth, he sprinted back to the cave.

A/N: I no this chapter was reely, reely, reely, reely short, but I'm sort 'a havin' a writers block, so if you hav any ideas pleez put them in ur reviews! PLEEZ HAVE SOME IDEAS! Thank 'ya! Tehe!
