'Takoma.' kouga cut her off.

'yea that's the one! how'd you get it so fast?' she sat straight up looking to Kouga shocked.

'long story.. anyway.. what about him?' He waved off the question.

Secora continued. 'He took over my tribe and completely destroyed it! He said if anyone challenged him they'd die on the spot!'

'Sounds like him...' Kouga said in a low voice. 'I have to go talk to Kago. You can stay at the den for a while, till we get this sorted out.' He turned with a look of anger on his face into the den.

Hesitantly she followed. 'Ok thanks.' she said as she stood and followed him.

When they got back to the den Kago noticed the look on her brother's face. 'We Have to talk' was all he said to the confused girl.

'Ok what about?' Kago blurted oblivious to the subject.

'Not here ok?' Kouga gave his sister a pleading look.

'Ok' Kago was starting to understand. Or so she though.

'Ookami over here!' Kouga called.

'What's up?' Ookami said casually as he walked over.

'Ookami watch over Keoto and Katomi ok? Make sure they don't leave the den.'

'Ok.. Am I allowed to know why i'm playing prison guard?' he gave his leader a questioning look.

'It's about Takoma ok?' Kouga said in a hushed tone

'TAKOMA?' Kago nearly screamed. 'I thought he was...'

Kouga threw his hand over her mouth.'I'll explain later. Anyway, got it Ookami?'

'Got it.' He nodded.

'K. Come on Kago. Secora lets go!. We have to talk.' Kouga said in a commanding tone.

Reluctantly his sister followed, a mixed look of confusion, anger and curiosity on her face. The three demons ran through the forest trees flying past them in their rush to get far enough away from the den for Kouga's liking.

'Ok secora tell me more about Takoma' Kouga said.

She took a deep breath, and began. 'Ok me and a few of the other members were all down by the pond when Takoma came. He looked hurt and was covered in blood. He asked us if we would help him.. Foolish and sympathetic as we were we led him straight to our den. As soon as we got there he took control. We thought he was the former leader of a tribe so we thought it would be natural for him to be giving orders. Then things got worse. He challenged our leader for leadership of out tribe and won. it was all-downhill from there. For the past 4 months my tribe has been working harder then normal. A lot of the hunters are afraid to come back empty handed for fear they might loose their lives. Were still missing 4 members. We had hundreds of members. We were all happy like your tribe.. but now were down to less than 100 demons and wolves alike. the rest have abandoned. He's torn our clan apart.' As Secora spoke these words memories of Takoma came back to Kago. being only of 15 years old she was only 5 when he had 'died'.

Or so she thought. He had been the perfect person to be around, when he was with her and Kouga. But when they left a whole different side came out. Kouga had heard from Ookami that Takoma was planning to take over. Luckily he was told in time and Kouga was able to stop him. He was banished from ever coming back to the tribe and was not to have any contact with any of the members.. Including him and Kago. To protect Kago, she was never told about it. He told her that he had died defending the tribe. 'it was a warriors death.' He had said.

'Kouga I thought he was dead. And besides, that doesn't sound like him.' Tears brimmed in her eyes as she gave her brother a look of disbelief.

'Kago theirs something I need to tell you about Takoma. He didn't die in battle. He was banished.' He lowered his eyes, he couldn't look at his sister.

'No you told me he was dead. He was killed by a demon.' she said in disbelief, the brimming tears now freely running down her face.

'No, he wasn't, he was banished.' He looked now at his sister. Anger seething behind every word. 'He was banished because he was planning to take over the tribe. I feared loosing my rank to him for fear of the destruction of our clan .'

'WHY AM I THE ONE THAT'S ALWAYS NEVER TOLD ABOUT THESE THINGS? WHY AM I ALWAYS LEFT OUT?' she screamed in anger.

'Because it's for your own good.' He gave his sister one last look of apology and turned to Secora. 'Anyway, Secora how did you know to come here?'

'Well as you probably know.. he talks in his sleep. I kept hearing Kago.. Kago this or Kago that. I'll teach you this Kago. Or something involving Kago. So I asked around about this Kago person. I finally found out by one of the younger demons. They said you lived in the southern lands and I came here.' (yes i know convenient but whatever.. - and i'm hoping i got the southern lands thins right )

'so I'm guessing you want our help?' he said in a flat tone.

'Yeah that would be nice..'Secora said with a small smile. ' how soon do you think we'll be able to leave?'

'Leave? LEAVE? So.. you think it's going to be soo easy for me to find out that my brother isn't in fact dead, but instead he was BANISHED for trying to take over? yeah your really thinking.' With that Kago stormed from the clearing. Her wolves followed her to calm her down.
