I slowly opened my eyes as I felt something warm rubbing against my face. I looked up, and knew right away who the giant wolf was.
"Daddy!" I happily yelled, as I jumped on him.
I rubbed my muzzle into his soft bronze messy fur, as I pushed him to the ground.
"Good morning sleepy head you're the last one to wake up like always." His cold calm sounding voice entered my mind, as his golden eyes looked warmer then normal, as I got off of him and we both stood up.
"Sorry….where did mommy and sis go?" I asked noticing my mother and Azumi weren't inside our cave any more.
"They left already Azumi went with her friends to hunt and Mayumi went to see how the pack was doing….speaking of the pack we should get going too." He headed to the end of the cave, as I just stood there.
'I had wanted to see if I could find Himeko today, but if I stay with my daddy and mommy I wont be able to leave till night and then her smell would be gone.'
"Is something wrong?" His calm voice snapped me out of it, as I looked up at him.
"It's nothing…" I answered, as I followed him.
'I'll have to take my chances tonight, because I can't tell my daddy about going off to try to find a human….' I thought, as we both kept running through the trees of our woods.
The snow felt so relaxing, as I was able to keep up with my dad with no problems.
My dad is the alpha male for so many reasons. One being that he is the only son of his father the last alpha male. Two being that he is so much bigger than any normal wolf in our whole pack, and the last reason is that he is the strongest out of everyone in the whole pack. No one would ever challenge him to a fight for control of the pack at lest no one that I know would ever do such a thing.
The cool wind was blowing right at us while we ran making me want to go faster and faster, as I let myself speed up and I started running as fast, as my paws and four legs could take me.
"Chikane slow down we are almost there and I do not want you to run into anyone!" I heard my fathers calm soothing voice ordered, as made myself slow down.
Even though I had slowed down a great deal sure enough I run right into another wolf.
"Sorry about that…." I calmly apologized, as I slowly stood up.
"I see you haven't changed one bit Chikane…." I knew that calm voice, as I looked at the copper colored fur male who was standing in front of me.
His cold hazel eyes looked warm while he was looking at me.
"Daisuke!" I was happy to see the young male wolf that has became a yearling just like Azumi.
"Chikane I told you to slow down." My dad's voice came into my mind and sounded both calm but stern.
"It's alright Satoru….I'm already use to it." Daisuke's voice was also so calm and happy sounding even though he was chosen by my dad to become Azumi's mate someday.
"I guess your right…." My dad's soothing voice spoke, as we all started walking.
Everyone of the pack lowered their heads to us, as I soon saw my mom and ran over to her.
"Mommy!" I stopped in front of her, as she went and rubbed her muzzle against my neck.
"Good morning sleepy head."Her warm voice spoke, as she looked to see dad and Daisuke.
"So you ran into Daisuke again…" I looked away.
My mom always knew everything it was really creepy.
"Good morning Mayumi. Chikane is still the same I'm really glad….I don't think she would be Chikane if she didn't ran into me every time she came over to the pack." Daisuke teased, as I lowered my head to them.
I knew they were all laughing at me I just knew it.
"Chikane!" A happy voice yelled in my mind, as I soon felt someone tackle me to the ground.
I looked up at the copper wolf pup that was on me her warm amber eyes happily stared at me.
"Otoha!" I happily spoke, as I rolled over and was on top of her.
Otoha is my best friend and Daisuke's little sister. Unlike Daisuke who had his fathers hazel eyes Otoha had her mothers warm amber eyes. Their mother and father were killed in one of the many fights we have with the humans, so during the winter they both leavethe pack and go give their respects to their parents at the spot where they died. So I was happy to see them both back home unharmed, as I rubbed my muzzle into Otoha's soft copper fur.
"Let's play!" We both said at the same time, as we ran off.
"Same old Chikane, but she's such a good pup." I heard Daisuke say, before I was too far away to hear any of their voice anymore.
"Come on Otoha catch me!" I slowly stopped running, as I noticed that Otoha had stopped and was lying on the snowy ground panting.
I returned to her side, as I rubbed my muzzle against her warm fur.
"Are you alright?" She looked up at me with those soft eyes of hers.
"Just tired…..you're really fast." She answered, as I lay down next to her and rested my head on hers.
"Sorry….I got carried away." I breathed in her honey scent, as I waited for her to be alright.
I soon lifted my head, as a new smell was around us one that I never smelled before.
I slowly stood up on all fours, as I was over the now sleeping Otoha. I was lowly growling, as I was looking around to see what it was.
'It's another wolf…no it's a lot of wolves, but none of them smell like our pack mates…' I thought, as finally one of the unknown wolves came out of the shadow of the woods.
"That scent….your Satoru's daughter. Well now it's a rare treat to find you so far away from your pack…." The snow white unknown male's cold voice was now in my mind and sounded so evil.
He was big, but not half as big, as my dad was. My growl grew louder, as I narrowed my eyes to this unknown wolf. His killer cold blood red eyes narrowed but they were filled with amusement and not anger.
"Such a feisty little pup you must be his daughter, but I heard he had two which means you must be his youngest. I wonder how pissed off he'd be if I took you away from him." The white wolf started growling.
I soon noticed that the remainder of the wolves started to leave the shadows of the woods and surrounded both myself and Otoha who had finally woken up and was staying under me. I looked around at all of the full grown males that were barring their fangs at us and since none of them were attacking me I knew that meant that the snow white wolf had to be their alpha male. I knew this wasn't going to end well, but I wanted to at lest keep Otoha safe so I lowered my self closer to her so that when they attacked they would only hurt me. My growling was getting louder, as I was showing my fangs to their alpha male.
"You've got guts pup." He growled, as I was getting ready for them, but I froze as I heard a loud howl that was really close.
'Daddy!' I thought, as I looked and a huge group of familiar wolves came out of our woods and my dad was in front of me now. His golden eyes narrowed as he was loudly growling at the snow white alpha male.
"Well now it's been so long. How are you Satoru?" The snow white alpha growled, as he narrowed his eyes at my dad.
"Tsubasa! What the hell are you doing in my woods?!" My dad growled, as his voice sent warnings through out my whole body.
I looked around and knew all of the wolves with him I even saw Daisuke near us growling, as I soon felt a familiar warmth rub against my neck.
"Mommy! Azumi!" I was happy to see them, as I relaxed and moved so Otoha could get up.
"I see you've brought your mate and your older daughter…how cute. So how are you my dear little sister?" The white wolf sounded like he was mocking both of my parents, as both Otoha and I were with Azumi and Daisuke now.
My mom went over to stand next to my dad, as she too narrowed her now cold royal blue eyes to the white wolf…to Tsubasa.
"It's been a long time brother….I see you haven't changed." My mom's voice was so cold sounding; I have never heard her voice sound like that before.
'Why are mommy and daddy growling at him….if he is mommy's brother?' I thought, as Azumi was rubbing her muzzle against mine.
"Let's go….come on Chikane." Her voice was really hard to hear, as she softly whispered but I didn't want to leave.
I wanted to know why mom never told us she had a brother and why he wasn't in our pack, but I could see that my sister was in no mood for me to argue with her. So both Otoha and I followed both Azumi and Daisuke slowly to make sure the other wolves from Tsubasa's pack wouldn't see us and or follow.
Once we were sure they hadn't followed us all four of us took off running, as fast as we could. I let myself go, as I speeded up I wanted to get home I wanted to return to our pack, as fast as I could so that I could feel safe again.
"Chikane slow down!" Azumi's voice went through my mind, as I soon noticed I was getting closer to our pack and had to make myself slow down even though I wanted to speed up.
I was soon running along side my sister, as we both soon came to a stop.
"Man…you two…are really….fast."Daisuke managed to say before him and his little sister lied down on the snowy ground to catch their breaths.
Both my sister and I went over to them, as I rubbed my muzzle against Otoha's warm copper fur. I saw my sister do the same thing to Daisuke's fur, as he lifted his head and licked her face. Our pack soon noticed us and were all around us in a matter of seconds. All of them making sure we were alright. I soon felt safe once again, as we all waited for my mom, dad, and the others with them to return to our pack safely.
Awhile later.
The sun was starting to set, as both Azumi and I looked out into the woods and ran up to our mom and dad.
"Are you alright?" We both asked at the same time.
Mom rubbed her muzzle against mine, as dad did the same to Azumi.
"We are fine…" They both whispered, as the other wolves that went with them came out and ran to their mates and pups.
"Now then it's late….we should all get some rest….since there is an enemy pack around the area I want all of us to sleep together like we use to. That way we can all keep each other safe." My dad calmly ordered, as no one had any problems with it after all this would make everyone feel much safer.
Everyone was finding a place to lie down so that they could all go to sleep I took this chance to ask Azumi about mom's brother.
"Azumi….why didn't mommy say anything about having a brother? Why isn't he in our pack?" I softly asked making sure to block everyone else out of our conversation.
Azumi's eyes said it all she didn't want to tell me about it, but she knew I had a right to know.
"Tsubasause to livein this pack with us….this was before you were born and when I was really young. He became power hungry and tired to take control of our pack, but dad stopped him….he hated us after that. Once he was fully healed from the fight he took a few other wolves that hated dad just as much, as him and tried to kill off the pack including his younger sister…..mom tried to stop him, but he ended up hurting her really badly. Mom had to make dad promise not to kill him which is why he is still alive, but….." I went and rubbed my muzzle against her neck.
"I get it you don't have to tell me anything else…" I felt her muzzle rubbing against me, as we soon pulled away and ended up lying down next our mom, as our dad made sure everyone was around.
Later.
I slowly stood up; as I made sure everyone was asleep, as I snuck away from my pack and headed into the woods. Once I knew I was far enough away I took off running, as fast as I could. I hadn't let the events from the day keep me from what I wanted to do.
'I have to see her again….now more then ever I have to see her. I have to see for myself, if she is safe.' I thought, as I let myself go and took off to the spot that I saved Himeko.
It didn't take me long to get to the cave, as I sniffed around to see if I could smell that sweat scent of hers. I froze, as I lifted up my head and took off running.
'It's her……..it's her sweat smell.' I thought, as the smell of her made me speed up.
I soon slowed down, as I saw an opening in front of me. I slowly walked over to it, as I made sure to stay in the shadows of the woods. The sight of the human strange building froze me in my tracks.
'It's huge…..humans really are weird…but amazing too.' I thought, as I soon heard a voice.
I headed towards it, as quietly as I could. It wasn't near the human's home, but it was inside our woods, as I followed it I realized that Himeko's smell was in the same place. It didn't take me long to find it, as I was heading for another opening. The moons light was shining over it almost as if it was guiding me towards it, as I soon stopped near by. I looked and saw it was Himeko she was sitting under a huge tree and she was singing a very soft sounding song. She was wearing the same white cape as before, but her pink and white outfit looked a lot warmer than the outfit she was wearing when I found her.
I slowly walked out of the shadows of the woods even though my instincts were yelling at me to stay away. I slowly went and lay down nearby her, as I listened to her sing but she slowly stopped, as I saw her open her eyes. Her warm soft violet eyes were looking right at me, as I was happy to see her smile at me, as she stood up and once she was at my side, she wrapped her warm arms around my neck. I felt her rubbing her face into my warm mid-night black fur, as I went and licked her warm check. Trying to let her know I was happy to see her again too.
"I'm so glad…you found me." Her voice was still filled with kindness, as I felt like my pack, my home, my mother, father, sister and best friend were behind me and the only thing that I wanted was to stay by her side.
They both meet once again but what will happen now...will Chikane stay with Himeko or will she return to her pack and what if Himeko's father sees her this time? So many question, but you'll have to keep reading to find out ^-^
