Chapter 5: Working Dogs!

'Mangy mutts…Where are their prides? Stupid…'

Breeze sat in a secluded dark corner watching wolves pull cargo. She sat there watching for two days now and it still didn't make sense at all. What happened to them? Wolves were creatures that were proud of their own and fought for what they wanted. This…Pack of losers…Pulled for food and water and one wolf laid disguised in his human form watching from afar.

'He must be the leader or else they wouldn't be doing this degrading shit…'

The coward. If they were going to pull for anything, he should be the first one in line. The asshole…

Three days ago, when she left the city, she was saddened and on the brick of tears from the bare land covered in snow. She couldn't find any animals or even forests. So after sulking for god knows how many hours she ran after the one thing she knew could keep her going…That lovely smell. For once she was following her nose instead of her feet.

Dusk was approaching fast and her stomach growled in hunger. Sighing, she stood up walking out the place making sure she wasn't noticed. Some days ago, she felt her pride break piece by piece the longer she walked in this ridiculous form, but what could she do? She figured if she didn't they would try to make her work with these fools and that sure wasn't happening.

'Plus I can't take the risk of getting injured again. I need to find that fragrance…'

She blinked sniffing around. That smell…Was it Hige? She shook her head. No, he was too far away. She shrugged walking out the station while rubbing her rumbling tummy.


"To paradise." He blinked at the cub briefly before glaring slightly at the laughing offenders. "Kiba, why are they laughing," Toboe asked with all his innocence.

"Because they obviously don't know anything about paradise," was all he said. His eyes remained hard and he stood as stiff as a board. He didn't like these wolves. Something was very odd about them. Though they were his kind, they were still another pack and couldn't be trusted that was for sure.

The small pack's laughter soon died down and the one he assumed was the leader spoke up. "We know all about it." Kiba's expression remained stolid as Hige and Toboe shock was quite noticeable. Tsume remained in the background just staring. His expression held no interest but he stood stock still listening with intensity. Kiba's glare was strengthened for what was to come next. One of the wolves that sat next to the leader was the next to speak.

"It's nothing but a stupid legend."

"Legend," Toboe asked.

"That's right kid. There's no such thing as paradise."

"What makes you say that," Kiba was the next to ask. The guy smirked before saying, "Maybe because we've been there. We all seen it." Shock filled the air as his smirk widened.

"And I'm telling you it wasn't paradise. That place was more like hell."

Kiba almost growled hearing the amusement in his voice. Tsume added his two cents of course but Kiba only heard his fury buzzing in his ears. He just glared. Seeing their mouths move but not a word came out. Toboe pulled at his arm saying he didn't wish to be there anymore. He would have to agree. Standing around these guys only fueled his anger.

'But I'll have to thank them…' He inwardly smirked. 'This little conversation only makes me want to get to paradise faster.'

They walked a little father from the small pack until they were walking near the ocean.

"Hey, do you guys smell that," Hige asked suddenly. Everyone gave him questionable looks. "Well I don't smell anything," Toboe said sniffing the air.

" Runt, you wouldn't know. You've never met her before." Hige ignored the small cub's growls. Walking forward he closed his eyes focusing. Everyone stood silent.

'Tsk…Maybe if we're lucky. Fat ass will lead us to some food with that nose of his.'

Tsume didn't have time for this. Why did he follow them in the first place? There was bound to be some humans he could use somewhere. But no. He was stuck with these dreamers. He turned his back to them.

'…Maybe I'm the dreamer too…' He slightly bared his teeth at the thought. 'Tsk…Yeah right…'

" The girl from the city," Kiba subconsciously said looking up ahead.

"Right! Wait wha? Hey, how do you know about Breeze," Hige asked in surprise. The white wolf didn't answer. Toboe smiled from ear to ear making Tsume raise an eyebrow.

"You mean that pretty girl we met back in the city?! She's here?!"

'He means that little bitch huh,' Tsume thought smirking slightly.

"How does everybody know her?! This is so weird," Hige sighed in frustration. Toboe happily started babbling about how they met and how beautiful and nice she was. Hige grumbled and walked up ahead while Toboe continued his happy story.


"Ugh! There is no food here! What the hell man! I'm starving!" Breeze walked around on all fours sniffing the ground with so much concentration, that it was impossible for her to pay attention to anything else.

Ears flickering every time a noise came from a distance. Tail waving from side to side as she walked forward slowly. This has been going on for almost an a few hours now. She smelled everything but food. She started to realize how those wolves pulling the cargo felt. That was their way of getting food though it wasn't all that serious. She huffed bringing her head up from the ground.

'This is just great… Fine so be it. This won't get me down one bit. I don't need food. I can go a month without food no sweat.'

Grrrrrr……

"Ugh," she sighed ears flattened against her head. She stomach roared again making her growl slightly. She whine a bit before walking slowly through an alley.

"Maybe I shouldn't of left so quick. I mean, Hige and his friends are looking for the smell too and he offered me a place in their pack…Maybe they have food…"

She drooled at the thought. She was so hungry she could eat a whole flock of ducks. Mmmm…Ducks… Blinking she shook her head of duck meat and sighed. "Dammit there I go again. Who cares about Hige and his so called friends. They're of no importance to me…"

Though she wasn't convinced with her own words. Hige helped her out of whatever trouble she was in back in the city and the least she could of did was wait for him like he asked.

'Man, why am I still thinking of him?!' Her nose flared a bit before her ears went erect. 'Now that I think about it…This isn't my imagination! He really is here!'

Her tail swung happily. And that means if the stocky one is here…He might have food! Her tail swung faster at the thought. 'Sweet! I'm getting me some food!'

She tried to remain calm and continue to walk toward the other wolf's smell but it was becoming too much for her as her feet starting jogging on its own accord. Maybe she was hungrier than she thought.

'Oh wow! He's really close!' She licked her lips happily and jogged a bit faster.


'Ugh…Why am I here again???'

She sat on the ground in her human form. Knees tucked under her butt and a noticeable white wolf head on her lap. She sighed stroking the unconscious creature subconsciously while staring up at the beautiful night sky.

'Man if I wasn't so good hearted, he would be left for dead. Ugh…Why me???'


*~`Flashback`~*

"Food food food food food foo- wha???"

Breeze slid to a halt seeing a very beaten and battered detour in her way. Her eyes scanned the white beauty in awe. Scratch here and there. It was little to no blood but you could clearly see that this male was outnumbered by whatever it was fighting.

"He-Hey…Are you alright…?"

Silence…

She took a hesitant step toward it, before walking forward sniffing the poor thing. She almost gasp finally realizing who laid before her. How couldn't she have known? He smelled of Hige and she even smelled two other familiar wolves on him. She sighed sitting down.

'Well since he's alright, I guess I'll continue to look for Hige. Ahh…Food…'

She stood up turning from him before throwing one last glance his way. She began to trot off but was halt by a soft groan. Turning around quickly to the sound, she blinked at the white male. He didn't move. Though, the only thing he could probably do is breathe.

She glared battling with her conscious. She told herself that he was fine, food was more important. Though the little voice at the back of her head told her to at least give him comfort until he woke up.

'Fuck that. I don't know him…"

'But Hige knows him…Stay with him and Hige just might come looking for him…'

'Well, how do I know he's part of his pack?I mean…What if it was Hige and his pack that did this to him…?'

'Hey well it's only one way to find out.'

She turned to the male slowly contemplating what she should do. Well her conscious was right. There was only one way to find out.

'I mean…This is the only way right?...Hige's smell is practically all over this city so I mean I'll stay here and see if he'll come. It's not like I'm staying here for his benefit…No way…'

She nodded switching into her human form. Walking up to him and placing his head gently on her lap she sighed feeling warm inside. It was almost like his body heat was making her tingle all over and you know what…It felt good.

'Ugh…I hate this feeling. Who is this guy anyway…?'

She looked down at him before rolling her eyes looking into the sky.

*~`End Flashback`~*


Daylight began to light the sky slowly. Breeze blinked tiredly at the sky before looking down at the still sleeping male. She grunted glaring. He was sleeping like a log! She grunted again glaring as if it'll make him wake up.

"When is he going to get up," she growled selfishly. She sat there all night rubbing and comforting this fool while sniffing the air for any signs of Hige showing up…Though this white snow flake didn't even have the decency to wake up!

"Why did I even bother with this guy," she thought rubbing his fur tenderly. Wait, tenderly? Why exactly was she rubbing him….Tenderly? Grunting, she shook her head of the unwanted thoughts. This guy was becoming too much. Time to go.

Slowly sliding her legs from under the white beauty, she stood up stretching all her limbs. Yawning, she looked one last time at the other before stepping away from the alleyway. Little did she know that as soon as her silhouette faded in the distance, the strong one woke up from his restless slumber.


"Well I guess I should leave this dump now," she sighed shaking her head in misery. She felt a little bad for leaving the poor sap back in that alley injured like that, but she wasn't one to take care of others. She was still surprised at her actions when it came to him anyway. Scratching at her head, she found herself back at the train station where the others were pulling the cargo. Glaring down at them with shame, she sighed. She couldn't help but feel pity for them. None of them could be blamed but their leader. Her eyes widened seeing an old timer having a bit of a hard time. She growled in anger and turned from the site. He was dying down there!

"...Breeze?"

She snapped her head up only to see...

"Hige?!"

They stared each other down in disbelief before Toboe yelled something in a frantic voice. Their eyes went from each other to down below. Breeze couldn't believe her eyes. The white one from before. Scratches and all stood looking at the scene before him before charging in rage at the humans. They could nothing but watch as he was attacked by the leader on the pack.

"This is...Happening so fast...What's going on," Breeze thought in amazement. In fact everything was happening a bit too fast. It was almost like...Everything was planned...

"I...I have to get out of here," she whispered backing up slowly. She didn't know what was wrong with her and she didn't care. Her instincts spoke out to her and they told her to run and run fast...

And that's exactly what she did....She ran...She ran as fast as she could; not even listening to the voice yelling her name behind her. This world...Was making her crazy....
