A/N: ok, I know I said there was a 1000 word minimum on chapters, but this is genuinely the longest I could make this without spoiling later chapters, so don't hit me please *hides* on a side note, I discovered you can REPLY to reviews. Whoops... I feel like an idiot now. Well, at least you can guarantee I will reply to all reviews now!
You slept soundly, without thought or dream, the still silent blackness of your inner conscience at the front of your vision...
The sound of thumping and growling, accompanied with the sounds of cursing, interrupted your peaceful slumber. Grumbling to yourself under the effects of the tranquiliser, you shifted and rolled over. It could wait, whatever it was.
Unfortunately, whatever it was obviously didn't think the same way. You heard a hollow bang echo through the otherwise silent forest, disturbing your peace further. The small scream of a wolf disturbed you, it sounded so familiar...
You heard the padding of clothed feet heading your direction. Sensing the urgency in those quick steps, you struggled to your feet, but only managed to push yourself up on your two front feet before a hand grabbed you behind the neck.
It grabbed you right on the scruff on the back of your neck, and now was time to panic. You opened your eyes, groggy and hazy though they were, you could just about make out a pale silhouette towering over you. It pulled you up so that you dangled helplessly in the air, and you yelped in fear and surprise. You struggled wildly to get out of his grip, to bite the hand that trapped you, anything, but you just couldn't make this man budge.
You eventually stopped struggling, and started hyperventilating in fear. What was happening? Who is this man? Why is he holding me in the air? Where is Romano? Your (e/c) eyes darted around, until you saw a tall man with sandy blonde hair kneeling over the.. over the body of Romano.
How dare he? How dare he kill a pack member of yours? You only pack member left! You were furious, furious beyond belief. With an almighty kick, you freed yourself from your captor. You expected him to holler in pain, or curse, or do something, but he just stood there. It wasn't until you turned and looked at the two- wait, two? Wow, why was he swaying? Circles, circles, circles.. you tried to step away from him, but your feet collapsed under you.
You heard soft chuckling out of the corner of your ear, then saw the sandy haired man pointing at you, and saying something to the other taller man. It was obviously funny, as they were laughing, but they weren't even trying to capture you again. Why were they just letting you be there? It was like they wanted you to do something for their entertainment. Well, you weren't a show pony, this pony can bite.
With one swift motion, you turned your muscular neck to bite Canada right in the center of his palm, causing him to yelp in pain and drop you roughly. Landing with a thump on the soft earth, you stood on shaky legs and ran awkwardly to where Romano was. But it was hard to tell where he was, the stars at the edge of your vision weren't helping, and neither was the fact that Romano seemed to have several doppelgangers as well. You tried desperately to run to one, your once agile (h/c) paws stumbling over rocks and dirt. You had hardly gotten ten metres until you fell, with a giant weight right on your shoulders. You were pinned to the ground, and you felt the weight shift, and a Canadian accent whispering in forced soothing French to you, as you faded into unconsciousness.
