2. Chapter 1: The One thing he can do

CHAPTER 1

"What the-?" Hibiki crouched, peering at the battered form in front of him.

Bruised and unmoving, the same wolf that he beheld earlier was collapsed on the ground near his burrow. He had come across the wolf while searching for something to eat. Hibiki's instincts dictated that he should run away, the fear of being the wolf's next meal running rampant in his mind. And... Is the wolf even alive...?

"Y-you're not dead... Are you?" Hibiki was filled with an unexplainable fear for the creature's death. He sniffed cautiously at the wolf's form. Thankfully, he felt that the wolf was breathing when his ear brushed on his face.

"Ah." The rabbit's ears were sensitive. He crouched back, staring at the wolf's handsome face. /What should I do? To meet a wolf here, so far from their territory.../ His gaze shifted to the wolf's numerous injuries. /But if I leave him here like this... He might die.../

Hibiki fell silent, debating the danger of a rabbit such as himself helping the wolf, their natural predator. But as he looked back at the hunter's peaceful face, he knew that there was only one thing he could do.
