"I was doing just fine on my own! Why did you have to butt in!?"

Sakura stood before the three of water, fire, and thunder, yelling furiously at them. She was trembling with anger, a good distance away from the human village, her fists balled up tightly at her sides. She then yelled,

"I was perfectly fine until YOU showed up! Why don't you give me some space!?"

The yellow one then stepped up and said,

"Sakura. We do all that we do because we love you..."

"If you loved me, you'd let me go back!"

The yellow one sighed. He turned to the blue one. She stood and said,

"Sakura, do you know why we fear and run from humans?"

"Because of the Mightyena!"

"No. There's another reason."

Sakura blinked. What was the reason?

The fire one stood, and allowed his gray cape to drape over his shoulder. There, in the middle of his back, was a fur-less spot, with a mark in the center, shaped like an arrowhead.

"This is why we don't trust the humans," the fire one barked. "We did them no harm, and yet, they attacked us. I almost didn't make it out alive."

Sakura gapped at the scar on his back, her face falling, and her eyes growing wide. She wasn't sure what to think. Were the humans trustworthy? Or were they as savage as animals? She wasn't sure.

Later, the sun arose, and the pack had to move once more. The Mightyena stretched, and knew it was almost time to leave. Within half an hour, the pack continued to move.

As Sakura led the pack, on the back of the water one, she was still torn on humans behavior. Were they as untrustworthy as the fire one said? As she pondered over this, she heard a sound that was different from the beasts and the dogs. A galloping sound to be exact. She turned her head and was surprised at what she saw.

The boy from last night, Tori, was on the back of a white colored horse covered in fire.



I know this is really short, so I'm sorry! I just hope it was worth it to read! :)
