Wolves Blood

A/N: I had some free time. :P


Chapter 12

Next Morning

'Uh why is it that I have to wake up with a heavy feeling on my arm and stomach?' Natsuki thought cracking an eye open.

Looking to her left she saw brown hair. 'Well that explains my arm.' and then Natsuki tilted her head to look at her stomach to see flame red hair.

' Oh wow, I've never seen seen this side of Nao all relaxed and calm.' Natsuki thought to herself.

A few minutes later Natsuki heard a groan and felt Nao move off her stomach.

Upon opening her eyes Nao turned to see Emerald eyes on her "Morning Spider." Natsuki said with a smirk on her face.

Nao feeling slightly embarrassed just growled and ignored Natsuki.

Natsuki just laughed till she heard another groan from.

Both Natsuki and Nao looked at the source of the groan to see a half asleep Shizuru crack an eye open.

Shizuru yawned and said "Good morning."

"Morning." Nao and Natsuki replied.

Shizuru finally sat up and Natsuki could feel her left arm again.

Nao yawned and said "Uh. I'm freaking hungry." while rubbing the sleep out of her eyes.

Shizuru stood up and stretched. "Don't worry I'm about to go hunt for breakfast. Till I get back Natsuki can you show Nao around please."

Natsuki nodded and said "Sure, come on Nao."

"Okay." Nao said following Natsuki out the den.


Shizuru's Pov

After running out of the den in her travel form Shizuru came to her normal hunting spot and stopped. 'Ara, I smell deer.' She thought while wagging her tail. Going into Stealth mode Shizuru got closer and closer to the grazing deer. Shizuru crouched once she was close enough and attacked. 'To easy.' Shizuru thought laughing to herself. Shizuru started dragging the corpse back to her den for skinning and cooking.


Natsuki's Pov

After leaving the Den with Nao. Natsuki's started showing Nao around. While heading towards the training ground Natsuki finally had the chance to ask Nao something.

"So, Nao what made you come after me when I left with Shizuru?" Natsuki asked looking back at Nao.

"I was just bored I guess." Nao answered.

Natsuki just stared at her till Nao yelled "What are you looking at me for?" Causing others to look a them for a second then continue on what they were doing.

Natsuki smirked and looked away "Oh nothing Nao. It's nothing."

Nao growled and Natsuki just laughed causing her tail to wag.

'Wait Mutt is a mutt now. So she should have sensitive ears now.' Nao thought to herself Smirking at Natsuki's back.

Natsuki shivered 'I don't feel safe right now.' She thought.

Without any warning Nao jumped and tackled Natsuki to the ground and yelling "Mutt!" into her right dog ear, The jumped off and ran like hell towards the training grounds.

Natsuki blinked after the ringing in her ears faded. "You are so dead Nao!" Natsuki howled after her phasing into her travel form and giving chase.

Nao looked back and saw a flash of Dark blue fur before falling to the ground.

"I give!" Nao yelled covering her face with her arms.

Natsuki got off Nao but not before muttering the words 'Jerk and Spider'.

Normal Pov

"Ara what happened here?" Shizuru asked noticing Nao was still on the ground and Natsuki was still in her Wolf form.

"Just a little playing around. Don't worry about Nao she will be fine." Natsuki said walking over to Shizuru after phasing back to her more human look.

Nao glared at Natsuki after getting up and brushing off her clothes.

Natsuki wrapped her arms around Shizuru's waist and nuzzled into her neck. Shizuru just leaned back into Natsuki's touch. 'Ara, Natsuki is so soft.' Shizuru thought with her eyes closed.

'Wow Mutt wasn't lying when she said found love' Nao thought while watching there public display of affection.

"Did you finish showing Nao around Natsuki?" Shizuru asked with her eyes still closed.

"No, but I'm already at the last spot." Natsuki answered.

Opening her eyes and looking at Nao, Shizuru said "Nao this is the training field. Where many types of combat is practiced."

Nao scanned the field not seeing anyone. "Where is everyone?"

"Ara, that's strange. It's usually crowded out here." Shizuru said looking around.

Natsuki looked around also. Noticing a three figures in the distance she said "Look there is a few people over there."

Shizuru turned to where Natsuki was talking about and instantly started growling while her eyes narrowed into slits.

Worried Natsuki asked "Shizuru whats wrong?"

"Rogues, They dare come on my Mothers land." Shizuru snarled out making Nao jump.

"Wait you mean like the group the attacked you?" Natsuki asked.

"Yea, We can't allow them to pass." Shizuru said phasing into Mega form along with Natsuki.

"Nao go back to the Den." Shizuru said.

Nao nodded and ran off. Once Nao was at a safe distance Natsuki turned to Shizuru asked "What do you think our chances are?"

"Two against Three? I'm sure we will be fine. Ready?" Shizuru asked. "Yea let's go.

Shizuru started running towards the group of three along with Natsuki. The group of three didn't seem worried about them.

"Look here girls a couple of pups think they can take us on." A brown haired with patches in her fur said making her companions laugh.

"Yea, by the time we are done with you pups your going to be whining for your mommas." A black haired one said making them laugh again till they saw a flash of fur and fire.

"Leave now and we might spare your lives." Shizuru growled out.

"Oh yea? You and what army? the third one growled out not feeling threatened.

"We don't need an army to take down such weak rogues like yourself." Shizuru said.

"Enough talking you bitch. You're pissing me off!" The black one yelled moving closer to Natsuki thinking she will be easier to take down.

Natsuki growled and glared at the rogue at the rogue getting closer to her. Once the rogue got closer Natsuki attacked lunging at her ripping into her neck with her claws causing the rogue to cry out in pain.

Shizuru made sure the other two rouges didn't get close to Natsuki.

Hearing a howl in the background the two remaining rouges froze in fear seeing two new werewolves appear on the enemy's side.

Looking behind herself Shizuru saw Chikane and Himeko. "Hime-oneesama, Kane-oneesama!"

"Yo a lil red head said you found trouble." Chikane said motioning toward the rouges and then looked over at Natsuki's fight and seeing she was winning. Chikane Nodded at Himeko and charge at at the brown haired rogue sinking her claws into the rouges fur and pushing her away from the one remaining rouge.

Himeko looked over at Shizuru and said "Call Kiyo-hime. I'll call my guardian." Shizuru nodded while phasing back to her human form while glowing purple as Himeko started to glow pure white. They both whispered the at the same time "Kiyo-hime/Yori."

A sudden flash of lights and both appeared wearing their battle armor. Kiyo-hime yawned and turned to Yori. "Hey Sis. Guessing that we were both summoned somethings going on."

Yori turned to Himko and asked "Is there something I can do for you master?" Himeko nodded and motioned towards the lone rogue still watching her companions getting their asses kicked.

"You need help with this Small fry? She probably wont even give me a good fight." Kiyo-hime taunted the reaming rogue.

Yori just sighed and looked at the rogue. "You know you could just save yourselves the trouble of this and retreat."

The rogue growled but nodded her head turning to her wounded friends and yelled "Retreat!"

After the rogues were gone Kiyo-hime turned to Yori and said "Geez Yori I didn't even get to fight."

"Fighting wasn't required this time." Yori said shaking her head "why do I have such a violent little sister?" she asked no one in particular.

"Aw you know you love me either way." Kiyo-hime countered back.

Natsuki phased into her human form and went over to Shizuru. Shizuru instantly looked over Natsuki's body for and damage.

She sighed when she saw none,but gasped as she saw the look in Natsuki's eyes. "Natsuki whats wrong?" Shizuru asked looking concerned.

'That damn rogue! Next time I see her again I'll make sure she can't move on two or four legs again! Calling Shizuru, my Shizuru a bitch.' Natsuki thought to herself not even hearing Shizuru's question the first time she called out to her.

"Natsuki!" Shizuru yelled shaking Natsuki to get her attention.

"Huh? What did you say Shizuru?" Natsuki asked.

"I asked if you were alright. You had this look in your eyes that had me worried." Shizuru said.

'Great I made her worried too.' Natsuki thought. "I'm fine it's just when that rogue insulted you I was lost in rage." Natsuki said with her ears flatting down in slight shame.

Shizuru blushed slightly at the way Natsuki looked. 'So that's it huh.' Shizuru thought. "Natsuki look at me." Shizuru asked lifting Natsuki's chin so that their eyes could meet. Once they locked eyes Shizuru moved closer and sealed their lips into a warm and comforting kiss.

After a few minutes that left like hours they broke apart for a breathe of air with there foreheads touching and faint blushes on their faces. They both jumped when they heard a cough beside them. They both turned to see Chikane and Kiyo-hime smirking while Himeko and Yori were looking away with faint blushes on their cheeks.

"Well getting a lil friendly there huh Shi-chan, Nat-chan?" Chikane asked in a teasing voice breaking the silence. They both blushed in embarrassment.

Ignoring Chikane, Natsuki tugged at Shizuru "Come on Shizuru let's go before Nao eats all the food." Natsuki said pulling Shizuru towards then den.


Entering the den Natsuki saw Nao laying on the furs filing her nails in boredom.

"Hey Nao have you eaten yet?" Natsuki asked sitting on some furs near Nao.

"Nah, I was waiting on you guys." Nao responded.

"How thoughtful of you Nao." Shizuru teased making Nao blush.

Shizuru walked over to the well cooked meat and dispelled the fire so that she could pull it apart.

"I also found some fruit this morning to go with the deer." Shizuru said pointing to the bowl of bluish red berries.

"Um what are these?" Nao asked picking up the bowl while Natsuki grabbed a few from it.

"They are Waka berries, depending on the size they will be either sweet or sour. Big ones are sweet small ones are sour." Shizuru explained as both Natsuki and Nao popped in a berry.

"Woah this is-" Natsuki started "Freaking tasty!" Nao finished.

Shizuru lauged at there antics. "I'm glad you both like them." Shizuru said finishing pulling apart the meat and putting it into three different bowls. Once done she passed out two of the bowls. Muttering thanks they all dug into their bowls.


After Breakfast

The group decided to go explore once again.

"Ah Shizuru, Natsuki I need to speak to you." Shizuma said when she noticed them walking by.

"Nao I didn't see you there. How are you enjoying your stay?" Shizuma asked seeing Nao at the last second.

"I'm loving it here. I don't feel like an outcast like I did with humans." Nao said.

"Well that's to be expected you are one of us just in our sister clans" Shizuma said patting Nao on the back. Shizuma turned to Natsuki and Shizuru and asked"I heard from Himeko, that both of you helped chased chase away the group of rogues. Is that true?"

"Yes, mama we did." Shizuru asked.

"Are any of you injured?" She asked

"No, we are fine. I can't say the same for the rogue that Natsuki fought." Shizuru said a smirk growing on her face.

" Really now? What did that rogue do to provoke you Natsuki?" Shizuma asked.

"She insulted Shizuru." Natsuki answered in a growl remembering what the rogue called Shizuru.

"I'm glad you are keeping your promise, but be careful the rogues may use that rage against you." Shizuma said.

"I'll try too next time." Natsuki said.

"Good, but until then you need training. Shizuru and Nao can join in too." Shizuma said.

"Wait why do I have to..." Nao was cut off by Shizuma saying "Because if we get attacked again like during the night time you could be at a great disadvantage."

Nao sighed knowing there was no way out of the training. "Fine, I'll train." Nao said crossing her arms.

"Mama what type of training will i have?" Shizuru asked. "You need to work on hand-to-hand combat. If you lose your weapon you would be killed instantly."

And my training?" Natsuki asked.

Shizuma turned to Natsuki and smirked "All of the above." 'Oh great' Natsuki thought holding in a groan.


After the training was over everyone's bodies were left sore.

"I need a bath." Natsuki said popping her arms and sighing.

"Yea, a bath would be awesome." Nao said.

"Ara, I knew I forgot to show you guys the bathing area." Shizuru said pulling them towards a waterfall area.

Awestruck Natsuki asked "How did you forget to show us this?"

"I don't know, I guess since we have been to tired in the afternoons." Shizuru said.

"Well I don't care right now I just want to cast off the sweat from the past two days!" Nao yelled running and stripping towards the waterfall.

Once she got there she jumped into the water making a huge splash.

"Well that was random." Natsuki said sweat dropping.

"Indeed it was." Shizuru agreed.

"Well we can't let Nao have all the fun." Natsuki said stripping off her clothes as well.

Shizuru nodded and also started to strip. Looking over at Natsuki seeing that she was finished taking off her clothes.

"Race ya into the water?" Natsuki asked.

"Your so going down" Shizuru smirked.

"Ready."Natsuki said. They both phased into their wolf forms.

"Set." Shizuru said. They both crouched got into a crouching positions.

Nao noticed Shizuru and Natsuki were about race and yelled "Go!"

They both took off toward the top of the waterfall with Shizuru in first.

"Your going to have to try harder to beat me Natsuki." Shizuru taunted.

In a flash of blue fur Natsuki shot pass Shizuru and made it to the top of the waterfall. She then phased and turn around. "See you at the bottom" Natsuki then fell back. Shizuru jumped and phases in mid air following Natsuki laughing the whole way down.

*Splash*

*Splash*

"Woot nice splashes guys!" Nao cheered from a distance swimming towards the area they came up from.

"Heh I beat ya Shizuru. So what do I win?" Natsuki asked whipping her hair out of her face.

Shizuru smirked and swam closer to Natsuki and whispered into her ear. A few seconds later Natsuki's face exploded into a strong blush.

"That's what you won." Shizuru said nipping her ear as she pulled away.
