Chapter 3

I groaned as something nudged my nose, and turned my head. I wasn't ready to wake up yet, then sun hadden't even rised! I growled at my intruder and tried to go back to sleep. Half way back to my sleepy haze, somthing bit hard into my right flank. I yelped jumping up and snapping my jaws at the intruder. Toboe and Yuru scattered away from me, snickering and wagging their tails at me. I laid my head down on my paws, and glanced at the sunrise.

Another sign that it was another day. Wich meant only one thing. I had to find somthing for us to eat. Of course this time we had extras...I groaned and got to my feet, still feeling sleepy as all hell. I looked around the roof, Toboe and Yuru were tackling each other in friendly play, while everyone else slept. I padded away quietly, making my way down the iron stairway. By the time I had reached the bottom I had pulled on my human mask and was busy tying my hair into a low pony-tail.

People hadn't come out of their homes yet, so the streets were bare. The sun light just started to grazed the ground down the main road. I kept my face down, looking at the ground infront of me, silently sniffing the air for food. I walked around an ally, side stepping a hissing cat. I glared at it, making it scamper off, fur raised. I chuckled childishly at for a moment before my nose sniffed a smell so mouthwatering, drool pooled behind my lips. I strolled carefuly, looking for any signs of sweet smelling thing.

I stopped in my tracks. Ahead of me was a small crate of meat. It looked so fresh and tasty, the sun hitting it just right, making the blood droplets shimmer like rubies. I looked around the ally and moved stealthily twowards the treasure. I grabbed it, being careful not to loose any of it, before leaping onto the roof with it, and heading back to the abandoned apartments.

~Later~

"KANA, YOU ARE AMAZING!" I glanced at Hige who was stuffing his face full of meat. Blue, who was next to him, sighed, nibbling slightly on her food. Everyone was eating except for me. I wasn't all that hungry. I was too busy watching Cheza, who in turn, was watching me. It was a little unsettling, like she new somthing that I didn't. I leaned against the railing looking over the city. No one spoke as they ate, Yuru trying to steal a few bites from Hige and Toboe. I wanted to laugh, but somthing else caught my attention. Kamu was sitting next to Kiba. It wasnt a big deal, but she wasnt just sitting there, she was having a CONVERSATION with him. I felt a stab of jealousy. She never talked to anyone other than Yuru and I felt a little left out.

I sighed before grasping the cold iron fence and flinging my body off the roof. I landed steadily on the balls of my feet, and rocketed forward; out of the ally. Too many people first thing in the morning anyway, they might need a break, and I could use a work out. I ran with my human mask on, until I got to the gate. I jumped up and hoped over the gate, landing outside the city. I grinned to myself and took off into the woods releasing the mask.

As I ran and owl swooped low to my head, laughing. I glared at it and tried to snap its wing. He flew higher, his screeching laugh wrapt in my head. I stopped running and looked around the green forest. It was still early fall, and the trees around still had green leaves. I glared at the foliage. Did everyone know someting I didn't? It was really starting to piss me off. I trotted forward growling the whole way to the river that ran by the city.

I leaned down to look at my reflextion. The water was clean and clear and showed myself easily. Even as a wolf I wasn't anything special. My black fur was short but shaggy, and my eyes where a mossy green, with little spots of yellow. I looked like a rough wolf, a little too thin, with strong looking legs. I was small and no where near a dangerous wolf. I slapped my paw down into the water, scattering the image. I sat back on my hind legs and just watched the water flow down the river. The sun was streaming through the trees, bathing me with a warmth.

"I need to forget about all my flaws and think about the good things," I murmured. I went to move to the river again, when somthing pushed me into the river. The water pricked my skin, sending shivers up my spine as I stood up.

"Who the hell...?" I glared at the wolf infront of me. He was, definately different than others. But extremely familiar. His fur was black but I could smell the dye in the air, and as he stepped forward I could see the red tints. His tongue hanging out of his mouth, and a happy grin on his face. I smiled back.

"Long time no see, Kisu," I got out of the water and shook off the droplets.

"Yes Kana. If I had known that you had been staying in this City I would have come sooner, but, allas...I hadn't and it took me longer to get to you than I had planned," His smile turned into a grimance.

"You sound like an old man. What happened to you, Onii-chan?" I asked, trying to sound just a little bit cuter than normal. He barked out a laugh.

"Since when do you call me that? I always thought that you where the Big Bad Wolf!" I growled at him, stepping forward irratedly. He shut up.

"Anyways, I was out looking for our father," I stared at him for a moment. Why would he be looking for that bastard? It didn't make any sense. He seemed to read my mind and hurried with an explanation.

"I head that he might be able to help find Kawa and that they where near here, you just so happened to be in the nearby city," I stepped closer to him bearing my fangs and growling lowly.

"Where is Kawa?" He backed away puttinghis tail in-between his hind legs and lowering his head.

"Thats why im looking for her, I don't know. I wish I did," I pulled my human mask on and ran my hand through my hair, he did the same. Even as a human he smelt of hair dye. His once blond hair had red and black highlights, and his eyes were the same as our mothers, dark brown with green flecks. He always had looked like our mother had, in both forms, thats most likely why he dyed his hair. I ran my hand through my hair again and leaned against a tree.

"Well I haven't smelt many wolves around here, only the ones in my pack..." I grimanced. It wasn't my pack, well not full, now that Kiba's pack and Cheza had joined us. I looked at the ground and tried to pull my shorts further down my thighs.

"You have a pack? And you haven't invited me to meet them yet?" He asked raising an eyebrow. I glared at him.

"I have manythings on my mind right now. Kawa, and finding paradise," He snorted a laugh.

"You and your pack are looking for paradise? Are you crazy? You'll get yourselves killed!" My glare deepened and I moved away from the tree heading back down the path that led back to the City gates. He jogged after me.

"Kana, you never believed in that fairy tail, why believe in it now?" I sighed and looked up at the sky.

"One of my pack mates, uhh, before recesnt acctivities, was looking for the Flower Maiden that would help us get to Paradise, she told me about manythings, so I decided had nothingn better to do so I'm going with her, and a couple others in search if Paradise," I said stepping over a tree root. He was quiet for a moment.

"If you need the Flower Maiden then isn't that what you should look for first?" I sighed again and twirled a strand of hair around my fingers.

"We already found her,"

"What?" He asked stepping in front of me. His eyes where a blaze with curiousity, and a old passion. That passion that had died out when the stories stopped, when our mother passed away all those years ago, was now light a new. I muttered somthing under my breath.

"I guess I have some explaining to do..."

"Damn straight you do, little sister," I glared at him before telling him about the past few years we hadn't seen each other, and about the previous night. It only took an hour or so, but he was soon caught up on my life. (I didn't care all that much about his because he had already told me what he had been up too.) He was know begging me to join in on the "fun."

"You cant just ask me, you have to ask everyone," He was about to say something so I turned an went to punch him. My knuckles landed on the tree righ next to his face. He stood still until I took my hand back, wiping the blood on my shorts.

"Alright! I got that message! No more talking until we get back to the City!" I rolled my eyes and kept walking. 'This going to end badly, I just know it...'

As we climbed the stairs of the abandoned apartments I could hear Kamu shouting something or other. Thats a first she was always the quiet one.

"It's not my fault she ran off!" That was Tsume... 'Whats going on?'I looked at Kisu and told him to follow me. I flung open the door and screamed.

"DON'T WORRY MY FAITHFUL FOLLOWERS I HAVE RETURNED TO YOU WITH A STUPID LUPA AND WITH IT THE UGLYNESS OF A BEAR!" That got every one to shut up. I was instently tackled to the ground.

"WAHHH! Kana where have you been!" Yuru cried clinging to my shirt. I grinned and patted her head.

"Its ok, Im back now,"She nodded her head and hugged me tight. I smiled up at ever one else. Then pointed at them.

"Group of Followers seeking Paradise, Meet Kisu. Kisu meet G.O.F.S.P" Kisu smiled and waved at them. Tsume glared at the hand, then at his face.

"Who the hell are you?" I clicked my tongue.

"Tsume there are little ears around," He lost his glare when he looked at me but still snapped half-heartedly.

"Does it look like I give a flying Fu-"

"LITTLE EARS!" I screached. Every one but Cheza covered their ears. I laughed at my handy work. Tsume turned away from everyone and looked down at the city. I pushed Yuru off me and looked for Kiba. He was right next to Cheza, standing like a guard dog. I walked over to him.

"Kiba, I need you to keep a little seceret," He looked at me boredly, waiting for me to carry on, Cheza giggled and went to stand by Kamu, who had relaxed a little.

"Kiba that stupid wolf I brought with me is my older brother Kisu, and he wants to find Paradise, can he come along?" I asked as sweetly as possible. Kiba looked over at my brother who was getting questioned by Yuru and Toboe.

"How is that a seceret, it seems like more of a question to me," I wiggled my finger in-front of his nose.

"The fact that he is my brother needs to be kept a seceret,"

"Why?" I grinned and poked the tip of his nose earning a creeped out look from him.

"Just because he is really stupid and I am not," He nodded his head to this and looked over at his again.

"Yeah he can come,"
