We're in heaven.....—Bryan Adams

Could it be any beautiful? It was everything that represented perfection. From the first puff of cloud to the last daffodil in the air. From the flower-covered emerald hills to the countless breath-taking meadows, to the very last sparkling drop of water in those crystal clear rivers and streams. It was a God-crafted canvas, a piece of heaven...it was Paradise.

Amid a sun whose light cast a shimmering effect to every thing it touched, there they stood, rooted to the ground, shocked, fascinated, exhilarated...relieved. No longer were they in that godforsaken epoch delimited by ice, waste, and demise. None of them spoke, not wanting to shatter this dream that they were in. Was it a dream? It seemed too good of a fantasy to be real. But then...how did they feel the soft breeze stroke their cheeks and play with their hair? How did they inhale the sweet scent of flora, enticing them to roll around in the millions of bed flowers. If it were a dream...why were they all frozen for the same reason?

Hige, pondering if this were Paradise or not, looked down at his feet. He was just standing on dirtied snow a moment ago and now, his feet were planted on green grass. His heart caught in his throat, Hige snapped his head up, eyes watery, and let a huge grin come on his face.

"YEAH!" The joyful wolf yelled out, as loud as he could, and ran down the hill they stood on. PARADISE!

"Hige!" Blue called out and gasped, eyes widened in shock. She clamped her mouth shut and closed her eyes tight. In her mind she prayed and begged and pleaded that she was still in this perfect dream she was having and apologized to God for crying out like that and to not punish her by waking her up from this reverie. But still, she heard the soft chirping of birds, and felt the wind rustle her raven hair.

"Hige! Wait for me!" Toboe barked, racing past the praying Blue, engulfed by happiness and tears of joy. He leaped off the hill, and tumbled down into beds of flowers, laughing all the while.

Blue kept her eyes closed but still she heard Hige's cries of rapture and Toboe's laughter. If this were a dream, wouldn't she have awaken already? Slowly, she opened her azure eyes and found that she was still in her dream. But was it a dream?

Tears whelmed up in her eyes as a smile crept onto her face. No. It wasn't a dream. She was certain. She looked to the side where Kiba and Tsume still stood, shocked as ever.

"Come on you guys!" She smiled and without waiting for them, Blue raced down the hill, heading for the fields. "Hige! We made it!" She yelled out in joy, her tears streaming down. She was accepted! Paradise had let her in! Her, a half breed!

Hige spotted her and sprinted to her, throwing himself on her. Both of them, crying of happiness, cuddled and played around, their spirits high and free. Toboe soon joined the crazy wolves and rough housed with them as well.

But still, there on the top of the hill, were the last two wolves, unsure. Tsume eyed the place, not believing that the bastard had really brought them to Paradise. This mad expedition that seemed hopeless at first, and so far at the end, had come to a finish. To Paradise.

Tsume, looked at Kiba and smirked.

"I'm glad you crossed my path." He softly punched Kiba in the arm and strolled down the hill, no longer in his human. He could hear the laughter of the threesome, somewhere lost in the large meadow of flowers.

"Tsume! This way!" Toboe's voice rang out, accompanied with an "umph!" as Hige threw himself on the pup. "Wolf pile!" Hige laughed, being jumped by Blue.

"Kiba?" A small voice asked, bringing the young man to life. He looked down at the fragile Cheza that was cuddled up in his arms and couldn't help but softly smile at her.

"Yea, Cheza?"

Cheza, dark veins still on her pale skin, weakly smiled, her ruby eyes squinting in the light. "You finally...have your paradise."

Kiba could only smile, for inside, he was ready to explode of joy. He gently put down Cheza who hugged him. "Run. You're free."

Kiba beamed and gladly obeyed her. Switching into his white wolf figure, he let out a long happy howl as he raced through the fields.

"Paradise!" He praised, the pure wind on his face, the green grass beneath his paws. He finally found it.

Toboe's Pup: Lol, I like how you think T.B, but I can't tell you if you're right or not. Cuz that would just spoil the story and ruin my fun of teasing you guys P Truth be told, I don't even know myself where I'm going with this. But alas, a magician never reveals the truth behind her tricks ;)

A/n:

Gosh, I never thought I'd get so many reviews for just the synopsis! You guys rock so hardcore ) If you didn't notice or if I was vague on writing this chapter, everything is in Italics for the fact that the event (the group entering Paradise) has already happened. In the next chapter (which I'm already writing) it'll connect to this chapter, so everything's in order. You'll get it once I upload the next chappie.

Thanks for reading and reviewing! You really make this psychotic writer feel so loved ::big smile:: )

Tata for now!
