Hi there. I really don't want to spoil anything this time. Just expect lots of drama and action. Hope you enjoy.
Alue's eyes widen. She was in complete shock.
"You mean…she has my babies."
Tundra just nodded. Tears were appearing in Alue's eyes.
"No…it can't be…"
Balto and Kavik tried to comfort her. Sora closed his fist tight. He can't remember being this angry. If anything happens to Kaylee, Fie, Sapphire, Nook, and Juni. He didn't know what he'd do.
"Alue, I promise you, I'm gonna make sure that subordinate pays." He said.
"You're gonna have to count me in." Balto said. "Nobody messes with my family and gets away with it!"
"If that subordinate thinks she's gonna hurt my great nieces and nephews," Kavik said. "She's got another thing coming!"
"There's something else the human said." Tundra said to Alue. "She doesn't want this human with you. If he is, she'll destroy one of your pups."
Sora gasped.
"What!" He shouted. "I can't be with you guys!"
"That's what she informed…" Tundra said in a low voice.
Sora's fists were shacking like crazy. If anything were to happen to Alue, Balto, Kavik, Boris, Muk, Luk, the pups, and rest of the clan. It would be his fault. He wasn't there to protect them. But if he went with Alue, Balto, Kavik, and Tundra, the subordinate would destroy one of the pups. It would definitely be his fault. This was a losing choice.
"Sora…" Balto said.
Sora looked at him. Balto took a deep breath.
"I'm afraid we have no choice…you're gonna have to stay here."
Sora lowered his head, not looking at Balto.
"Yeah…" He said in a low voice. "I guess you're right."
With that, Alue, Balto, Kavik, and Tundra ran back to the den. Sora was in an extremely foul mood.
"What the heck am I suppose to do now!" He shouted. "If only there's someway I could help them!"
"I believe I know a way."
Sora brought out his Keyblade. He just heard a voice.
"Who's there?" He said.
A man came from behind the trees. Sora lowered his Keyblade.
"Oh, it's you, Mooneye."
Mooneye smiled.
"Hello, Sora." He said.
Sora just looked away.
"Don't mean to be rude," He said. "But now isn't good time for me."
"I see…" Mooneye said. "Another subordinate is threatening that she'll destroy the wolf leader's offspring if you show up."
Sora looked at him, surprised.
"H-How did you know?"
Mooneye grinned at him.
"I'm well known about this subordinate's tactics." He said.
"Which subordinate is this, anyway?" Sora asked.
"Her name's Asza." Mooneye said.
"Asza…" Sora said.
He was trying to remember what Nava said about her. Then it clicked inside his head.
"She's the one that can control plants, right?" Sora asked.
Mooneye nodded.
"Wait, didn't you say know a way so I can help my friends?" Sora asked.
Mooneye nodded again.
"How?" Sora asked.
"By turning you into a wolf." Mooneye said.
Sora's eyebrows went up.
"A wolf?"
"Yeah, her plants are too powerful for you to take them as human." Mooneye said. "But as a wolf, you'll have the strength, speed, and instinct to take her plants down."
Sora thought for moment. He wasn't really faun of the idea of being turned into a wolf. But if it means saving everyone, what has got to lose?
"All right," Sora said.
Mooneye went closer to him. He then removed his eye-patch. Sora now knew why he was called "Mooneye". The pupil was a little black dot and the rest of the eye was colored as the neon moon.
"Close you eyes, Sora." Mooneye said.
Sora did what he was told. Mooneye's eye started glowing. Sora's body started glowing. Then his entire body was shifting. His hands and feet turned into paws, his ears grew and were pointy, his face turned into a muzzle, fur was growing all over him, and a tail appeared. Sora opened his eyes. The first thing he noticed he was standing on four legs. He looked at his body. He was amazed on what he become.
"Wow…" Sora said. "I had no idea you had this type of power, Mooneye."
Mooneye smirked.
"Can you turn yourself into a wolf, too?" Sora asked.
"Of course." Mooneye said.
He then, turned himself into a black wolf. He still had the scar and the moon colored eye.
"Come on, let's go help the clan."
"Right!" Sora said.
Alue was running franticly towards the den. Balto, Kavik, and Tundra were close behind. When they got closer, they saw the rest of clan waiting for them.
"Alue!" Most of them called out.
"What's going on?" Alue asked.
They lowered their heads and made room for Alue to see a black and white wolf on the ground, beaten and unconscious.
"Vike!"
Alue ran towards him and tried to wake him up. Vike opened his eyes.
"Alue…" He said in a low voice. "She has…The human has our children."
"I know." Alue said. "Where is she?"
"Right here."
A woman with long thick pink hair in a pony tail, wearing a long black cloak, appeared. Along with dozens of plant-like Heartless, circling the wolves. The woman smiles at Alue.
"Hello, my name's Asza." She said. "I can see you know what I've done to your mate here. That's the price paid to those who try to mess with me."
Alue growled at Asza, along with Balto and Kavik.
"What have you done with my children?" Alue shouted.
"Oh…There right here, safe and sound." Asza said.
She moved aside to show that the pups were cornered by Heartless.
"Mama!" They cried.
"Babies!" Alue cried.
"Please, help us! We're scared!"
Balto growled like he never growled before.
"LET THEM GO, YOU-"
"You better be careful on what you say to me, wolfdog." Asza said. "Or…"
The plant-like Heartless got closer to the pups. Vines were going around them. Balto gasped.
"All right, all right, please don't hurt them." He said.
The plant-like Heartless' vines were removed from the pups. Asza made a sinister grin.
"There, now you see what I have to use against you." She said.
"What do you want with me?" Alue asked.
"The ice crystal that's what." Asza said. "I know you couldn't give it to the Keyblade Master. So I figured you need a true reason to release it. And-as you can tell-this is indeed a true reason."
She then made a sinister laugh. A laugh that Balto and Kavik's blood to boil even more.
"Now, give me the ice crystal or your pups are going to be lunch for my dear plants." Asza said.
Alue couldn't take this. Tears were coming out her eye like crazy. Then, her eyes started glowing. She then made a tremendous howl. A howl she has never done before. Soon, the ice crystal of a caribou appeared. Asza looked as though it was a wonderful birthday present.
"I knew it!" She squealed.
Alue stopped howling.
"There!" She shouted. "You have your ice crystal! Now release my pups!"
"What?" Asza said. "Oh, of course. But…you must come with me."
"Why?" Alue asked.
"Because, you're the sacred wolf I've been looking for." Asza said.
Balto went in front of Alue.
"She's not going anywhere with you!"
"Well…in that case, my dear plants will have their lunch now." Asza said.
The plant-like Heartless, once again, wrap their vines to the pups. But before anyone could react, in a blink of an eye, the Heartless were destroyed and the pups disappeared.
"What!" Asza shouted.
"Sorry, Asza!"
Everyone turned around. A young wolf with blue eyes, silver and white fur, wearing a necklace with crown on it, and a couple of brown hair sticking out on top of his head, appeared. All five pups were on his back.
"But there's no way I'm letting these pups become lunch!"
Balto and Kavik stared at the young wolf. There's something familiar about him. Then, like a quick flash, they knew who he was.
"Sora!"
Sora smiles at them both.
"Hey, guys." He said. "How do you like me now?"
"What!" Asza said, stunned. "H-How did you…"
"How did I become a wolf?" Sora said. "Tell them, Mooneye."
"With pleasure."
Then Mooneye appeared as a black wolf.
"You!" Asza shouted.
Mooneye smirked.
"Well, wolf or not, my dear plants will finish you off!" Asza shouted.
Then dozens of plant-like Heartless appeared.
"You guys better find a place to hide." Sora said to the pups.
The pups nodded. They got off Sora's back and ran for it. Then Sora brought out his Keyblade and the battle began. He ran for the first Heartless. With his wolf speed and ability, Sora was taking the Heartless down easy. The rest of the clan was fighting as well. Some wolves got caught by the Heartless' vines. But Balto and Alue broke the vines with their fangs and took the Heartless down. Kavik grabbed a vine of a Heartless and started swinging it around, hitting nearby Heartless, destroying them. Despite being hurt, Vike manage to take down a few Heartless. But one of the Heartless' vines hit Vike, sending him to the ground. Vike tried to get up, he was too weak. The plant-like Heartless was about to hit Vike with it's two vines. But Sora and Alue saw the Heartless and grabbed the vines with their mouths.
"Are you thinking what I'm thinking?" Sora said whiles his mouth was still holding the vine.
Alue nodded. Then she and Sora started running. They used the vines to tie up the Heartless. After that, Sora and Alue pulled the vines and Heartless started spinning like a top, destroying the nearby Heartless. Alue went to her mate.
"Vike, are you okay?" She asked.
"Yeah, I'm fine." Vike said, getting up.
He then started nuzzling Alue.
"Thank you, Alue and…Sora."
"Don't mention it." Sora said. "Come on, we better help the others."
The battle seemed to go on forever. Most of the wolves were getting tired. But in their pride, they'll keep on fighting. Sora and Balto were circled by ten Heartless. They examined each and every one of them.
"Are you ready for this, Balto?" Sora asked.
"As ready as I'll ever be." Balto replied.
But before they were about to fight, Sora and Balto felt some sort of power.
"What's this?" They asked.
Then something clicked into their heads. They now know what it is.
"HOWLER!" Sora and Balto shouted.
The power inside them was released. Sora and Balto moved as fast as lightning, destroying each Heartless that was in their way. After destroying twenty Heartless, the power inside Sora and Balto grew stronger.
"EARTH HOWL!" They shouted.
Sora and Balto started howling. The ground started shacking and it destroyed the rest of the Heartless. The wolves then cheered them on. Sora and Balto looked at eachother.
"How did we do that?" They said.
But then again, it did the job. So they didn't care. Asza was watching them in the air, laughing.
"Oh, you wolves think that was it?" She said. "But that was a few measly plants, compared to this."
She rose up her hands. Then a giant Venus fly-trap with the Heartless symbol, appeared. Sora, Balto, Kavik, Alue, Vike, Mooneye, and the clan bared their teeth. They charged towards the Venus fly-trap Heartless. It swung its massive vines towards the wolves. Sora, Balto, Kavik, Alue, and Mooneye jumped to avoid its attack. Sora brought out his Keyblade and started attacking the Heartless' three mouths. But the Venus fly-trap's mouth was sucking Sora and Balto in. As they got closer to the mouth, Sora used his Keyblade to keep its mouth from closing. Sora then shouted: "FIRE!" Flames were burning the right side of the Venus fly-trap's mouth, destroying it.
The Venus fly-trap then pushed Sora and the rest of wolves away. Sora now knew what he had to do. He once again charged towards the Heartless. But the Venus fly-trap Heartless did another trick. It brought up its routs. Sora, using his wolf abilities, dodges each and every one of them. He jumps up to the Heartless. But its vine grabbed Sora and brought it to the middle mouth. Balto saw what was going on. He and 15 other wolves pushed the Heartless' vine down, releasing Sora.
"Thanks guys." Sora said.
The left mouth was about suck the wolves in. But Sora went in front and did the same thing he did with the right mouth.
"FIRE!"
The left mouth was destroyed. Only one mouth still remained. But more vines appeared, making it almost impossible to get to the mouth.
"How are going to do this?" Alue asked.
"I don't know." Sora and Balto said.
Then, once again, the power inside came again. Sora and Balto gave eachother smiles.
"HOWLER!
Sora and Balto moved as fast as lightning, destroying the vines.
"EARTH HOWL!"
They both howled. The ground started to shake. It made a crack where Venus fly-trap was. It fell into the hole, making it completely helpless. Sora aimed his Keyblade towards the Heartless' mouth.
"FIRE!"
The Venus fly-trap Heartless was on fire. Soon, a heart came out of it, going strait into the sky. Then it was gone. Everyone jumped for joy.
"You were amazing, Sora!" Kavik said.
"Thanks." Sora said. "We all were."
"MAMA!"
The pups ran up to Alue and Vike, nuzzling them like crazy.
"I knew you would save us." Sapphire said.
"I thought we would never see you again." Juni said.
"Oh nonsense, I would never let anything happen to you guys." Alue said.
She looked at Sora.
"Thank you, Sora."
"Don't mention it." Sora said. "I'm just glad was able to help."
The pups then looked at Sora.
"Are you really Sora?" They asked.
"Yeah, it's just…"
Sora stopped there. He started glowing. Soon, he was his human self again. Everyone gasped.
"How did you become a wolf?" Balto asked.
"It was Mooneye that turned me that way." Sora said.
Mooneye came to them.
"I forgot to tell you, Sora." He said. "The wolf transformation only lasts for an hour."
"Oh…" Sora said. "And I was starting to get the hang of it."
"It looked as though you had, the whole time." Balto said.
"You did some moves that most skilled wolves don't have." Kavik said.
Sora grins at them.
"I'm a fast learner." He said.
"Noooooooooooo!"
Sora and the others looked up in the sky. Asza was staring at them, filled with rage.
"How could my plants lose to a bunch of wild animals?" She shouted. "You're going to pay for this, Keyblade Master!"
Sora brought out his Keyblade.
"You just don't give up, do you?"
"Not in a long shot." Asza said.
She lowered herself to the ground.
"Are you ready to challenge me, Keyblade Master?"
"You know I am!" Sora said.
"So am I!" Balto said.
"And me, too!" Alue said. "You're going to pay for hurting my family."
"Well…in that case." Asza said.
She made force field, so only Sora, Balto, and Alue could fight her. The rest of the clan, Kavik, Boris, Muk, and Luk watched. The battle was about to begin.
End of chapter. You all know what's going to happen in the next chapter. So in your reviews, could you give suggestions of how the battle with Asza should work. I already got a few ideas. But I would like more.
