Funny thing about that chapter, fans. It was OLD! -.- So.. This means I'm back and here to finish this damn story (no offense) but I think two years is long enough and when I finish I'll be dancing on clouds. College should make that easier.. Maybe, hopefully… I'll see you in two years .

27.

And so they ran…

The wind whipped their fur, but instead of pushing them back, it guided them forward, towards home. The ghost wolf was well in the lead ahead of them, however his body slowly faded.

"I am the spirit of those people, their guide. They are the lost souls of wolves once were. Your appearances brighten their hope to find Paradise. In turn, I came. I am the first elder. I died hundreds of years ago, yet my spirit stayed with my people. Thank you Wolves, Chosen Ones… We will never forget and love you always, just as before…"

The Spirit Wolf faded into darkness leaving Tsuki the leader. Kiba watched her. Her head held high in confidence as she sped up. He couldn't help but thinking about how he was then. The leader to a bunch of misfit wolves. His lips curled into a small wolfy smirk.

" I think I see it!!!"

Shippo's voice yelped as a big looming dark tree. Kiba looked up with his bright yellow eyes. The tree's figure was familiar definitely. He felt a slight chill up his spine. They would have to climb that same cliff edge… The full moon glowed brightly, this time it wasn't red but a bright blue.

Tsuki stopped upon reaching the rocks. Everyone did the same. Hige and Cyan starred above. Tsume sniffed around for any bad signs. Toboe and Shippo marveled at the amazing height they would have to climb. Kiba knew this area all too well. He starred up. The mountain was taller and darker in a way. A hand found its way into his. He turned to look at Tsuki, she smiled.

" It's the end, Tsukimono isn't here and this is it… isn't it?"

His eyes gazed into hers. He had a feeling it wasn't. He gave a fake nod and kissed her forehead.

Growls erupted around them.

Toboe yelped and Shippo's growls were heard. Out of the darkness many pairs of ghostly white eyes appeared. Each eye gazed at the group, ready to kill them. Toboe let out a yelp as fangs clenched around his throat. Shippo growled loudly and attacked the wolf that was suffocating his friend. But his attempts proved to be fatal as another five wolves jumped him. Kiba howled and leapt towards the group crunching every leg and throat his fangs could find. Everyone followed. As they fought the selected that attacked Shippo. The other Agents/wolves stood back waiting for orders. There were about 30 of them that did so.

Finally Tsume killed the last and Toboe managed to free himself. Shippo couldn't be found. His body rested somewhere under the rest of the bodies. Toboe, realizing Shippo was gone, let out a howl.

Kiba on the other hand, wasn't ready to mourn. He turned and looked at the group. A familiar glass-eyed man stood about 50 feet high onto the mountainside. His sapphire eyes seemed to glow in the moon.

"Well Kiba, God of Wolves… I have finally caught you at last."

A eruption of howls of laughter danced along the dead of night. Blade smirked and threw his head back and let out a laugh of his own. His golden hair swayed in the soft wind.

" Tsuki…"

Her eyes jumped to a dark figure in front of her. She recognized it immediately as her dad. His eyes shown a glow of love, the black completely drained for a split second.

"Daddy…"

She didn't move but stared at her once father. He smiled brightly.

"I'm proud of you… My Moon Wolf. I knew you were special and that you would lead everyone to Paradise."

Tears formed in her eyes, "I love you, Dad." She moved to nuzzle him but Kiba held her back, "No Tsuki!"

Her blue eyes stared up at Kiba confused.

" Kill THEM!"

Her father's eyes instantly turned black and he leapt aiming for her throat. Kiba had time to react and grabbed him by the leg with his jaws and threw him into the rocks. Tsuki blinking in sudden realization jumped to attack a wolf that was about to pounce on her Kiba. She bit down hard enough to break the wolf's back. She didn't stop to look and faught another around her. The Pack worked in pairs watching each other's back's while attacking the wolves around them.
Hige and Cyan managed pretty well, where Hige was slow, Cyan would attack with a speedy swipe. Hige would manage the harder blows. Tsume did most of the cutting and biting while Toboe was falling under fast. He wasn't used to such attacks and especially when his neck had a deep gash in it. Kiba and Tsuki were the perfect match in speed and strength.

The Agent/Wolves were reduced to 5 and they were finishing up when a loud Yelp erupted around them. They turned to see Blade with Toboe in the clutches of his fist. He had Toboe by the neck and was squeezing the air. Toboe tried kicking and biting but to no avail.

Tsume growled and leapt to kill Blade. Blade chuckled and with his other hand swung a sword to Tsume's mid section and he fell back.

Toboe wasn't moving any more and Blade chucked him into the rockside. Toboe's eyes bulge and his tongue hung out.

Blade leapt up the mountainside and ran. Tsume and Hige followed close behind. Cyan and Tsuki ran to Toboe to see if he was still alive. However, he was far into his own Paradise now. Running in the fields with Shippo and Hana close by his side.
