Kouji and the Wolf girl Chapter 10

The last stand…

Suddenly, Dan let out a terribly loud howl, his vocal cords growling, a bellow was more accurate. John had jumped onto his back and bit his neck, trying to kill him, but Dan ran into another wall and rammed into the wall with John, hurting him badly.

"GO Mamori! GO!" John yelled at his friend. Mamori nodded and ran up towards the mountain to find Kouji.

Dan's back was marked with scratches and blood that were made from John. Finally Dan grabbed John's paw and slammed him down on his back with great force! John coughed up blood from the force, a gasp coming out as the wind was knocked out of him. He was phased by the slam. Dan quickly noticed Oki coming towards him and sliced an artery on his arm, making him fall to the ground with a pool of blood on the ground. He looked back at John and pushed down on his neck with his giant paw and bit down on his neck, a terrible shriek coming out, but shortly ending, as John layed on the ground, as his lower jaw twitched twice, his eyes giving a desolate, on the deathbed look.

Oki struggled to his feet and ran at Dan. He clamped down on his hind leg, trying to make Dan let go of John. Dan slowly turned his head back towards Oki, a wicked grin on his face. Oki growled angrily, but looked up, fear in his eyes as he looked up at Dan. Dan shifted around quickly, slipping from Oki's grip and tearing at his throat, Oki layed on the ground in pain, as his eyes only looked at John. Dan ran up the mountain towards Mamori and Kouji.

A pool of blood formed around John. Oki struggled to his feet, blood dripping from him. He slowly, breathed in and out, but it was hard to breathe. He staggered over slowly to John, his arm being of no use. He was now crawling over to him.

"Oki…" John stuttered. "My friend…" Oki grinned. "I'm coming with you shortly…please…wait…for...me…" John slowly closed his eyes, his last breath, leaving his cold body. Oki layed a foot away from his friend and stared at the sky, as if he was watching John's spirit, floated quietly away into the heavens.

"Oki! … … OKI!" Darkrai yelled sliding to a stop next to his brother. Oki's vision was blurry.

"Hey Darkrai…" He replied to his little brother's yell in a scratchy voice.

"Remember, how we use to play…in the medows…and mother and father would always get… mad at us…we always got into so much trouble…but we would always…get out of it…John was there too…" Oki said slowly forming a grin. Darkrai felt tears coming up.

"What are you talking about nii-chan? Were still alive! " Oki looked at his little brother, then at John, and finally, again at the sky.

"I wish we could have had…one more memory together…" Oki said not even listening to Darkrai's replies. Tears slid down his furry face in two streams.

"Please Darkrai…kill me with your fangs" Darkrai's eyes shot wide, he looked away.

"I- I can't! I won't kill my own brother!" Darkrai said, tears forming in his eyes.

"Please little brother…I'm in pain…" Oki asked in a scratchy voice as he looked at him one last time, his eyes barely able to stay open. Darkrai looked back at Oki, then down at the ground.

Darkrai nuzzled his big brother before finally preparing to do that deed.

"Please, after you kill me, find and help Mamori…" Darkrai nodded and pulled away from his brother, as his lower jaw quivered. He came down on Oki's neck, and killed him instantly.

Darkrai ran up the mountain after them. Oki's eyes had closed when he finally took his last breath. Snow began to fall upon the lands.

Darkrai jetted up the mountain faster than lightning as he chased after Mamori and Dan.

Mamori was getting close to Kouji, but Dan had caught up to her and bit down on her foot, dragging her down the mountain onto the ground next to him! The edge they were on slanted downwards towards a sharp rock. Mamori was flailed in the air, but she grabbed his face with her claws and bit down on pulled him with her, slowing her velocity down and biting down on his muzzle! Dan screeched out with pain as he struggled to get her off of his face, when he finally did he was trying to go for her neck again, but this time Darkrain rammed into him, making both of them fly over fight feet into the air, and finally falling down towards the ground, but Dan was smarter than Darkrai and flipped around onto his back and flatted Darkrai! Darkrai yelped with pain as he gasped for air from the 300 pound wolf. Darkrai stood back up and grabbed Darkrai by his throat, but Dan grabbed him by the scruff of the neck and rammed him into the wall, then throwing him towards the spiked rocks!

Darkrai's side was bleeding profusely, but he didn't stop fighting, he pulled himself from the rock, staggering a bit, he tried to run at Dan again, but Darkrai rammed into him, cutting an artery on his leg, Darkrai couldn't move. Dan knew it was getting late and ran up towards the mountain!

Mamori shook her head and took off over to Darkrai.

"Where is Oki and John?!" Mamori asked.

Darkrai looked away, he bared his fangs a little. "Oki had me put him down, and John died before I got there…" Darkrai replied in a shaky voice. Everything in Mamori's heart seemed to drop cold. Her comrades had died.

"Here I'll carry you" Mamori said trying to grab Darkrai, but he snapped at her.

"Go after him!! If you don't then their lives will be in vain!" He yelled. Mamori's eyes were wide with fear, but she took off after Dan. Darkrai's eyes grew heavy with tiredness from the lack of blood. He let out a howl as he fell to the ground, his blood streaming down the icy ground. He slowly entered his death.

"My Brothers…I will…be with you soon…" He said his eyes finally closing.

Mamori ran up the hill in her human form, she felt a tear sliding down her face, but quickly clenched her teeth as she jumped onto the hill, just as Dan started to go towards Kouji. She ran at him in her wolf form again and attacked him! The two went at it again, fighting to the death.

"Mamori…" Kouji whispered as he returned to his human form and started to glow. Dan made Mamori tumble to the side, her body now covered in scars, two scars across her nose, and another large one from his fang on top of her head.

"Kouji!" Mamori yelled. Dan walked towards Kouji, he bit down on his ribcage, blood spilling out from the wound as he was getting ripped away from the light. Mamori growled at Dan and tried to bite his neck, but Darkrai let go of Kouji and grinned evily as he walked towards her, but threw up dark blue blood from his mouth onto the ground. He looked down at the ground at this and seen Kouji's blood was poison to him. He was after all, a mortal wolf. Kouji held his side, on his knees all he could do was watch as Mamori fought. Dan looked over to Kouji and noticed a glimmer of rays surrounding him.

"Finally, the gates to the heavens have been opened!" He walked towards Kouji. Mamori fell on her side, watching as Dan tried to kill Kouji so he could enter, but a light shone spontaneously from above his head! Dan was set on fire with blue, pink, purple, green and red light, he disappeared into thin air.

Kouji opened his eyes, as the light from the heavens slowly lifted back up into the sky.

Mamori opened her eyes and rolled over onto her stomach. She slowly stood up and walked over to Kouji, her tail going from side to side as she neared him. Kouji watched as she came over to him. When she was close enough, it seemed as though she finally relaxed and landed her head into his lap. Kouji pet her gently as she relaxed in his arms.

"I'm glad I got to meet you…" Mamori said looking up at him. Kouji's eyes widened. He hugged Mamori.

"You can't die…" He said, tears coming down his face. "Please Mamori…stay with me…" He replied, holding back his tears as a knot formed in his throat.

"Please forgive me kouji…Do you forgive me?" Mamori asked. Kouji nodded.

"Yes…I do…you don't even have to question that…" He said. Mamori transformed back into her human self. He hugged her close to him. She closed her eyes and gently kissed him on the cheek before closing her eyes.

Kouji looked at Mamori. He layed her down on the ground and stood up.

"MAMORI!!!!" He yelled at the top of his lungs.

Blacks Out…
