I didn't do any editing on this. My head hurts and I feel sick but my mom is being a bit of a dick. If you see anything majorly wrong, tell me and I'll go back and do editing. But this is all for now.
"Well?" Lovino repeated with a slight scowl on his face as he made the wolf look at him. "What fucking happened to you? I want to hear it from you and you alone dammit. And no, don't try to use the whole 'but I'm a wolf and I can't talk right now veh~!' shit. I can still understand you. Now start talking dammit."
Feliciano growled at him warningly. "{They dug a fucking bullet out of my leg. I'm not going to put up with your shit right now. Just leave me alone,}" he snarled, his tail lashing, reveling the white bandage rapped around his right leg already looking slightly pink.
"Knock off the fucking attitude Feliciano." Lovino growled back. "I'm trying to fucking check on you."
"{Fuck you,}" the younger spat, baring his teeth. "{I didn't ask you to come here. I'll get home by myself, I don't need you! Or anyone else! They should have just left me back in the fucking past! I was a lot fucking happier there! To hell with this Ludwig! Fuck him! Since we've been here he's pretty much only been angry at me!}" He got shakily onto his feet, his right forepaw held off the ground, his fur bristling. "{I'M SICK OF IT!}"
Lovino glared as he gently forced Feliciano back down. "Your ass is fucking staying there unless you want me to go alpha on your ass! Now fucking REST!" Then he added. "And knock it off with that past shit! This isn't fucking you!"
"{FUCK YOU!}" Feliciano screeched, getting back up. "{I'm not going to listen to you anymore! You aren't the boss of me, you're just my brother!}"
Lovino tensed up as his eyes melted to gold. Then he stiffly got up and headed for the door. "Get… me me out here…. Right now…. Before I do something." He ground out to Antonio as he tightly kept his fists clenched.
Worried, Antonio gently put an arm around Lovino's shoulders and held him outside quickly.
Lovino fell silent as he let Antonio lead him out, although the Italian was starting to tremble slightly.
"Lovi, what happened in there?" the vampire asked anxiously.
"I-I….." the Italian stuttered then swallowed. "It's…. uh….."
Hugging him gently, Antonio began to rub the other's back. "It's okay. Just take some deep breaths and relax."
"T-Trying….."
"Shh shh..." Antonio did his best to help calm the teen down, holding him close and swaying form side to side, one hand running lightly through Lovino's hair as the other made gentle circling motions on his back.
Finally Lovino's trembling started to slow down.
Antonio continued to sway and rub his back, pressing light kisses all over Lovino's face, finally planting a soft, lingering one on his lips. "Are you alright?" he asked, his voice low.
Back upstairs, Feliciano was limping around the room, growling lowly to himself.
Ludwig stayed close but a good distance away from the wolf, unsure of what to do.
Every time Feliciano caught site of the other he would snarl and his fur would stand out, doubling his size intimidatingly.
"…. I'm sorry….." Ludwig quietly said.
In response, Feliciano grabbed the red bandage in his teeth and tore it off, spitting the bloody cloth at Ludwig's teeth, the wound once again bleeding freely.
Ludwig immediately raced over and started trying to bind the wound again.
Feliciano instantly attacked him in response, clawing and biting at the vampire, not minding the blood the pooled under his wound. He was to angry and felt to betrayed to care about the injury at the moment.
"Feliciano! Stop this!" The German ordered as he tried to hold Feliciano back, hold him down, and try to bind the wound all at the same time.
Feliciano snapped at Ludwig's hands, forcing the other to let him go. He bolted from the room, crashing into the walls in the hall and he made a mad dash for the door to get outside.
Ludwig chased after him.
Scrabbling to stay up, Feliciano raced for the door. He tumbled down the stairs, jumped up, ignoring Yao's surprised yell, and bolted for the door, bursting out of the shop into the street, his eyes wide and his heart pounding wildly. His body shook with pain, though he continued to ignore it. He had to escape this place. No one wanted him here anyone, and all they all did was hurt him. He had to go back. Find the ship. His true Ludwig. His real brother.
His mind crated an elaborate story to fit his emotions and current thoughts. Of course this place wasn't real! He had know that all along! He just had to find another portal to get back! Then Ludwig, his Ludwig, would help the pain go away. Lovino would scold him but pat his head, and they could go on a raid. Everything would be back to normal. He just needed to find those people. The ones who had taken him to the ship in the first place. The ones who had sent him home.
This idea planting itself firmly in his brain, he took off for the forest, hobbling as he was far unsteadier than his mind was leading him to believe, the wolf unable to put any weight onto the injured leg.
Lovino teared up as he shook his head no. "N-No….. b-before…. I-I wanted to fucking MAUL him! A-And teach him a fucking lesson for talking back to me! B-Because…..!"
"Because you're the alpha, Lovi. It's okay. It's not your fault. You have to remember that. You don't have those feelings because you want them, it's because you are the leader of your's and Feli's pack. It's natural instinct to defend your position when it's questioned," Antonio explained gently, holding him close. "You don't need to justify yourself, amor."
The Italian looked down and bit his lip. "I-I know dammit…. But…."
Just as Lovino was beginning to calm down, they heard something crash out of Yao's shop and the nature spirit yell. They turned to look and discovered a crazed looking Feliciano, his right front leg bleeding badly, limp-running towards the forest, his eyes unfocused, panting heavily.
Seeing the other wolf Lovino tensed up and started growling as his eyes narrowed and turned gold.
Antonio quickly tried to pull Lovino's attention back to him. "Lovi, Lovi, look at me," he said, putting his hands on the werewolf's shoulders. "Look at me, querido."
However Lovino continued growling more as his eyes followed Feliciano's movements before starting to pull away from Antonio.
Feliciano didn't notice the two, struggling to get to the tree line.
Unable to hold it in Lovino scratched at Antonio with a clawed hand then raced after his brother.
The claws tore into his skin and the Spaniard gasped in pain, letting go of the other and holding his injured arm to his chest tightly.
Lovino ignored him as he chased after the wolf, soon gaining on Feliciano.
The little wolf was almost to the trees, completely unaware of his brother bearing down on him.
When he was close enough Lovino kicked the wolf in the stomach then shoved him to the ground, glaring down at him with his blazing gold eyes. "Who's not the fucking boss?"
Feliciano let out a yelp of pain, landing heavily on his side, luckily not on his injury. He glared back at Lovino and growled, angry for being stopped. "{Get off. You're not my alpha, and you're not my fucking brother.}"
Lovino growled and trembled as he tried to fight off changing.
The Italian got up and began to head towards the forest again.
Lovino shoved him back down, accidentally scratching Feliciano with his sharp nails. "Y-You're… not going any fucking where! Got that?!"
The younger brother yelped again as he was scratched.
"Y-You…. WILL listen to your alpha! D-Do you fucking hear me?! You'll obey me or DIE!"
Feliciano glared defiantly up at him. "{Then kill me.}"
Back at the shop Ludwig ran out of the building only to crash right into Antonio in his hurry to go after Feliciano.
The two toppled to the ground, fighting each other for a moment before realizing they were attempting the same thing and calming enough to get up without further injury. They rushed into the street just in time to see Lovino, standing over his helpless twin, raise a clawed hand to strike, Feliciano doing nothing to get away, merely growling his displeasure.
"LOVINO! NO!" Antonio yelled, running towards the pair.
Ludwig was the first to reach the brothers, jumping behind Lovino and knocked him back away from Feliciano while hissing as Lovino's claws grazed him. Then when Lovino went to get up held him back. "Antonio! Take him while I move Feliciano out of here!"
Antonio lept forward, wrapping his arms tightly around Lovino and hauling him backwards. As this all happened, Feliciano again began his trek towards the forest.
Lovino winced in pain then glared and kicked Feliciano away from him into the wall and jumped to his feet. "Fuck you!" he snapped as he punched Feliciano again then ducked under a punch.
As he was being dragged Lovino snarled and thrashed around, clawing and biting at Antonio as he tried to get around him.
When they were gone Ludwig rushed over towards Feliciano and gently scooped the wolf up into his arms.
Feliciano howled in pain as his stomach was touched. He snapped furiously at Ludwig's arms, struggling to escape his hold.
"Feliciano! Stop that right now!"
The Italian snarled and thrashed.
Ludwig still held on.
Back in the woods Lovino teared up as he slowly stopped fighting then bit down on Antonio's arm and bolted off when he was free.
Antonio hissed as the same arm was injured. He blinked back tears and watched his boyfriend worriedly.
Even when he lost sight of Antonio Lovino didn't stop until he ran all the way to Arthur's house and pounded on the door until the mage answered.
"What the bloody hell is your damn-?!" Arthur started to snapped but was cut off as Lovino slammed past him into the house.
"What was that damn spell that those bastards used to turn me into a dog? Cast it on me right now! Quick!" The Italian gasped as he panted for breath.
The mage blinked then frowned. "…. Excuse me?"
"You fucking heard me!" Lovino snapped as his eyes flashed brighter for a second. "Do the damn spell before I do something that's really fucking bad and can't be changed!"
Arthur stared at him for a few second then sighed and nodded as he pulled out his spellbook. "Very well… if you're sure…." Then he started the spell with the light covering Lovino from head to toe until it glowed a bright white and faded away. "There. You're done. Now leave. I'm expecting a guest soon."
There was a knock on the door then. "Artie!" Alfred's voice called. "I'm on time today!"
Arthur sighed and dragged a hand down his face as he walked to the door, shoved a slightly dizzy Lovino outside then pulled Alfred in and shut the door and locked it.
Meanwhile, Feliciano was still furiously fighting Ludwig's hold, snarling and clawing, thrashing his body to try and escape.
Ludwig carried Feliciano back all the way to Yao's shop, set him down on a soft pile of blankets in the store room then walked out and shut up to let Feliciano wear himself out before he could go back in and work on the injuries. "I'm sorry…."
After almost a half hour of listening to the Italian howling in agitation and slamming his body into the door, the sounds ceased.
However it wasn't Ludwig who carefully slipped into the room, instead it was Lovino who came back while tracking his brother's scent and avoiding running into the other. "….. Feli?"
The wolf had retreated to the blanket pile, laying down and panting, his pink tongue hanging from his mouth as his sides heaved. He looked at Lovino in confusion. He could smell the other, but he smelled like a dog, not a wolf.
Lovino frowned and didn't meet Feliciano's eyes as he inched over and gently started to check the wound. "You need to stay down dumbass. Going to get more hurt this way…." Then he bit his lip. "B-But…. S-Sorry about before…."
Feliciano just continued to pant and watch him.
Finally close enough and still looking away Lovino slowly reached out and set his hand on Feliciano's paw. "You need some damn water or something?"
The Italian wolf growled at the touch, but was to tired to move. Instead he just lowed his head and nudged Lovino's hand away, then lay his head over his front paws.
Lovino frowned more but pulled his hand away. "What made you run off before?"
Feliciano ignored him, his tail lashing.
Lovino sighed to himself and moved over to check the wound.
Surprisingly, the werewolf allowed this, only growling slightly, but not trying to stop him.
Working as gently as he could Lovino rebound the wound and bandaged it then moved back. "Better?"
Ignoring him once more, Feliciano got up and limped the the door, then sat in front of it and pawed at the wood with his good leg.
"I'm not letting you out." Lovino huffed as he watched. "You need to fucking rest before you end up hurting yourself again.
The wolf bristled and growled.
Lovino glared back and crossed his arms. "No."
Feliciano bared his teeth, snarling at Lovino angrily.
Still Lovino glared back. "You want out? YOU fucking open it yourself."
Letting out an angry howl, Feliciano began to again slam his body into the door.
"Fuck! I didn't mean to do it literally!" Lovino snapped as he darted forward and blocked Feliciano's way."
The younger Italian growled warningly, telling Lovino to move.
Lovino growled back and trembled but stayed where he was.
Feliciano snapped at his legs.
Lovino yelped as he jumped back away just as he started turning into a dog until finally he stood there in front of Feliciano as a full dog and being forced to look up at wolf.
The wolf stopped in confusion. He leaned forward and sniffed the other animal, discovering he smelled just like his twin. He growled, but it was more irritation at not understanding than actual anger. He nudged Lovino with his nose, trying to figure out what had happened to him.
Lovino barked then jumped back away from the touch, not liking the feel of it at all.
The Italian huffed, then turned away from him, losing interest in favor of getting the door open.
The dog growled then darted around and sat down right in front of the wolf, blocking the door.
Feliciano stared at the small animal for a moment, then slid him out of the way with his head and began slamming into the door once more.
Lovino growled as he jumped at Feliciano and lightly nipped him.
Feliciano bumped him away with his side.
Lovino barked at him and jumped in the way again.
Feliciano snarled and hit Lovino hard with his shoulder, they laid down on top of the dog, irritation radiating from him.
The dog yelped loudly as he tried to pull free while nipping at Feliciano.
The wolf couldn't even feel him struggling.
Lovino struggled more then howled.
Feliciano just huffed and used his good paw to push Lovino's head flat to the ground.
"{Feliciano! Let me the fuck up dammit!}" Lovino barked as he tried to get up.
The younger twin growled.
At that moment the door opened up as Ludwig carefully walked inside. "Feliciano….?"
The wolf jumped up and sprinted out, slamming Ludwig into the wall as he passed.
Lovino jumped to his paws and ran out after Feliciano, still with the oversized shirt flapping around him.
Cursing, the German vampire pulled out his phone and dialed Antonio's number as he chased after the wolf.
"Hola?" Antonio answered, The Spaniard was outside, trying to find Lovino.
"Feliciano got away from me! I'm not sure where he is but keep Lovino contained until I can catch him again! We can't let him attack Feliciano!"
"Where are you guys? Where is Lovi?"
"Feliciano just ran away from Yao's shop!"
As soon as the words came out of Ludwig's mouth a medium sized brown dog wearing a oversized human shirt came running up, and not paying attention, crashed right into Antonio's legs with a loud yelp.
"Ouch!" Antonio yelped, rubbing his shins. He looked at the dog and paused. "Wait a minute…. Lovi….?"
