EPISODE 31
         Kiba continues to run down the road.....when something catches the corner of his eyes, he saw someone or something move at high speed in the back of an alley way...."What was that?!" He turns and runs down the alleyway chasing something he can barely see or let alone keep up with.....then he reaches the end of the alley, and no one to be found.....he looks high and low and even jumps atop a building, but he sees nothing. He jumps back down from the building and notices a glimmer of light from something......he finds a ring....."Who did this come from.....??" The ring has a strange symbol on it, and he can sense deep within himself that this ring holds strange, unworldly energies....he puts the ring on his finger and walks out of the alley, and as soon as he comes out.....he sees someone jumping from building to building, he stares wide-eyed, "A wolf girl?! So there are more wolves in the world besides me...." Kiba starts to chase her down, then she turns around and turns into a wolf and they get into a small fight, she says, "So you're a wolf too? Well no wolf is gonna stand in my way!" Kiba then says, "Stand in your way?? No......I want to know who you are and why you are in this city! Are you searching for Rakuen?" She replies, "Rakuen......a place of paradise......maybe I am......so what's it to you!?" Kiba answers, "I'm also searching for paradise! Do you know where flower daughter is??" She answers him, "No, I don't know who you speak of, who is flower daughter?" Kiba explains to her everything he remembers right before the rebirth, but he doesn't remember much, all he remembers is Cheza and that she can find paradise and that she tells him she will see him in next paradise.....then she says, "Very interesting, then I must find her too!" Kiba then asks, "Do you know who this ring belongs to?" She replies, "No, I don't, sorry." Kiba still wonders, he thinks back, "looked like a spirit or something.......??" Then he asks for her name, "Why?! Why do you want to know my name?!" "Why are you hiding it from me??", replies Kiba, "First tell me yours! Then, I'll tell you mine!" "I'm Kiba. Now, what is your name?!" "My name......is Elune......." Meanwhile.......Toboe (in human form) is wondering around a fish market in the same city. "Mmmmmmm, fresh fish :)", he says with delight, "Grandma will be happy to cook these for me! :9" He speaks to the man selling the fish, "Excuse me sir, but may I please have some fish? {:-)" The man answers, "Have you any money??" Then Toboe checks his pocket......"N...No....but please can I have one....just one little one? :D" The man speaks sternly, "No! Go home little one, you're interrupting business! >:(" Toboe starts to cry a little, :*( and headed back home....On his way home, he meets a small child, sitting all alone on a step playing with a small ball. Toboe gets curious and wanders over there....."Hi!" says Toboe, the child responds, "um....hello! What's your name?" Toboe answers and says, "My name? Is Toboe! What is your name?" Child responds giggling, "That's a funny name :D, my name is Mia! Do you want to come to the park and play with me? :)" Toboe replies, "Sure! Sounds fun! Hehehe :D" So Mia and Toboe go to the park, and they start playing catch with the small ball. Mia throws the ball to Toboe, and Toboe catches it and throws it back.....Mia says, "What happened?! :o" She was wide-eyed and Toboe was confused, and says, "What's wrong Mia??" He comes nearer to Mia and looks at the ball, it had fang marks.....Mia starts to cry saying, "My favorite ball.... :*( it was you....you did something to my ball....." Toboe replies, "Me?? What did I do?? I'm really sorry Mia for making you cry, but don't understand how this happened.....??" Mia calms down, "It's ok Toboe, I know you probably didn't do it on purpose." Then, some duck got her attention....and she begins to smile again. :) I love ducks hehehe! :D Toboe smiled and asked her, "Do you want me to get you one? :)" She smiled and replied, "Yay! That would be great! :D" Toboe runs over and the ducks start to fly away, and he jumps into the air, and grabs one and brings it back down to the earth....Mia was astonished, she had never seen such a thing before. She says, "WOOOOW!" and runs over to Toboe as he caught it, Mia asks, "How did you do that Toboe??" Then she looks down at the duck, then Toboe says, "Here is your duck. :D" Mia holds the duck, then she notices it was bleeding on her shirt, and bite marks in it's side, then she says, ":o It's dead...... :*( it's dead......" Then Toboe saw it, and said, ":o That was Mia's duck...... :*( that was Mia's duck...." Then he starts to cry, and then changes form and starts to howl.....Mia looks wide-eyed and then drops the duck and starts backing away, Mia then says, "S...st....stay away from me....Stay away from me!" Then Toboe stopped howling and spoke, "Wait Mia.....please wait, I won't hurt you I promise...." Mia then says, "No! You just go away!! Stay back...!!" Then Toboe looks her in the eyes, sad and teary, and spoke, " : ( Why Mia? Please, don't go...can't we still be friends?" Then Mia starts running away in fear, and tells a man what she just saw, and the man starts running.....but Toboe had gone, and left the duck.....Meanwhile, Hige (in human form) was sitting in a fast food place all the way across the city from Toboe, and was chowing down on a cheeseburger and fries...(?? lol :P) then he heard someone scream from outside, "Sounds like trouble!", he says, as he jumps from his chair to his feet instantly. He ran outside to see what all the commotion was about, and he saw three men surrounding a pretty woman, and they pushed her down to the ground and ran off with something shiny. Then the woman yelled, "GUARDS! GUARDS! THIEVES!!" Before the guards came running, Hige jumped off the wall to the rooftop of a building, and was chasing those men. The men were common gangsters, then they ran into a deserted alleyway, and slid open the side of a huge wall revealing a hidden passage... with stairs that lead downwards, into a secret living sanctuary. Hige saw this and waited until they were down there, and then he tried to open the wall, but it was really hard to move, he noticed it took three men to move it, so he went to get some help from the guards. Then they opened it, and Hige and the guards rushed down there, but the gangsters were ready, and killed the guards with their machine guns, but Hige was too quick, and outran all the bullets, and killed one by one all of the gangsters. Then, without warning, Hige was struck from behind. it was the boss of the gangsters. Hige lay motionless on the floor, as he was knocked out. Then hours later he awoke and found himself chained to a wall. Then the man came in and says to him, "You are foolish if you think you can wipe out the pitbulls single-handedly!" Then Hige replies, "I almost did, hahaha! Your entire gang was killed by me." Then he laughed, "HAHAHAHA! You may think you have won, but there are countless other hideouts. This gang is world-wide!! This city just so happens to be one of many of our main hideouts! You think you can destroy us?! First the city will fall to us, then this continent, and then the entire world!! HAHAHAHA!", and with that he left the room, but Hige was resourceful, he turned into his wolf form and used one of his fangs to unlock the chains around his arms and legs. Then Hige ran into the next room, but the man wasn't there, and then he noticed that the wall was open, and ran outside. Then he saw the man get into a black car and drive off really fast. Hige chased him, knowing that he has to be the one who has the shiny object that was stolen from the woman. He jumped off the wall of a building then landed on the top, and was leaping across the rooftops at high speed, until he was directly above the car, then jumped down on top of it, "WHAT WAS THAT?!?!", says the man, the driver then answered, "Someone's on top of the car!!!" Hige broke the car's left window, reached in, and forced the steering wheel to the left. "AHHHH!!!!", the man screamed, "We're gonna crash, do something you fool!!!!", then the driver answered loudly, "I CAN'T!!!!! HE'S TOO STRONG!!!!!" Then the driver slammed the brakes as hard as he could and they spun out of control and crashed into the side of a building. The driver had been killed, a huge piece of glass was pierced completely through him nailing him to the seat. Hige was outside the car, as he jumped right when the driver slammed the brakes. He waited as the other man pulled himself from out of the car, he was limping, and had sprained his knee. "Urggg....*moans painfully*....my knee!" Then the man saw Hige staring at him, and said to him, "YOU!!! It was YOU who crashed us!!! HOW DID YOU ESCAPE THE CHAINS?!?!?! You're gonna pay dearly for all this!!!", then Hige responded with a smirk, "How are you gonna do anything to me now with that bad knee?! >:) You're the one who's gonna pay, give me back what your men stole from that lady!!" Then the man retorts, "What? This?!", and he quickly puts it in his mouth and swallows it. "HAHAHAHAHA!!! This is too important for YOU to have!!" Then Hige got angry, and changed forms into a wolf. "GRRRR, fangs bared, slides tongue across the top of fangs* "Now how am I going to get that now you think..." Hige retorted, as the man stood in complete and utter fear. "WHAT IN THE NAME OF HELL?!?!?!?!" Screams the man, "Who ARE you?!?!" What ARE you?!?! WAIT A MINUTE!!! YOU'RE....YOU'RE A......" Before the man could finish, Hige replies, "A wolf?! Hahaha! Do you think you petty humans could wipe us out so easily...I think not! You made me angry, now you must and WILL pay the ultimate price! There's no running away now, HAHAHA!! Your knee is sprained I see! Well, I'll let you in on a little secret.....wolves ALWAYS go for the injured when hunting....HAHAHAHA!!! JUST TRY AND RUN!!!" Then the man pulled out a pistol, and aimed at Hige right between the eyes, "There's no need to...hahaha!!!" But before the man could even pull the trigger, Hige sprang at him, mouth wide open, and pounces onto him, his fangs were sinking deeper into his throat, *Screams in agonizing pain* and then, crushes his neck bone between his jaws, then rips his throat out and finds the object the man had swallowed....it was a jewel of some sort, covered in blood. Hige then left the corpse and went to a nearby jewelers, and cleaned the blood off......it was a crystal, and crystals are extremely rare, and extremely hard to come by....Then Hige was shocked, "WOOOW! A crystal?!?! It's a crystal!! I never thought that I would see or let alone be holding one of these!!" Then a nearby woman overheard him and came running, saying, "You have a crystal?!?! Lemme see!!" Then all of a sudden Hige got a big audience around him, because everyone knew how rare they are. Hige had no choice but to leave, and try and find this woman it rightfully belonged to....When Hige left the jewelers and came outside, the crystal began to give an eerie glow.....and Hige noticed it and stared at it for a while, "This in unearthly.", he muttered. Hige became completely attentive to the glow, every thing else around him seemed to fade away in his eyes, and he didn't break free from the spell of it for several minutes......Then he snaps back to himself and runs to find the woman, thinking that this must be very important to her......Meanwhile, Toboe makes his way back to his grandmother's house, and while he was on his way, he was thinking about Mia, and how she started to fear and dislike him....and it made Toboe very sad, and heartbroken, he thinks to himself, ":( But I didn't mean to kill Mia's duck.....", he began to try and figure out a way to get Mia to forgive him, and came up with an idea, and heads on home. When he gets there, he smells the best food in the city, Toboe gets excited, "YAAY! I'm soo hungry! :D", and he runs inside and gives his grandma a hug, and sits down at the table (?? lol :P) to eat. His grandmother did not know that Toboe was a wolf, for he hid himself from her pretty well, luckily, but she did find it strange that Toboe was aging rather quickly. She had already taken him to a doctor when he was younger, but the doctors were baffled, and said it was probably some sort of uncurable disease...lol, Toboe had laughed secretly about it later...:D Toboe has never seen his grandfather before, because, he got adopted right after his grandpa died, so his grandma was heartbroken and so very lonely, so she adopted him from a home when he was very young and raised him like he was her own, so Toboe calls her grandmother.....and, no one knows for sure who Toboe's real parents were, all that is known is his real parents named him Toboe....Toboe says, "YUUUM! :9 This food is delicious! :D Thank you so much grandmother! :)" Smiling, his grandmother replied and said unto him, "You're worth all the food in the world my son, and I know that one day, you will find true happiness just as your grandfather did before you." Early that evening, (one hour later) Toboe slips away while his grandmother was napping, and went to get something that he had found, kept secret, and hid for a while. It was a bracelet, a golden bracelet he found in a beautiful lake one day when him and his grandmother came from their old city to their present one, kind of like a vacation away from their old home to never return again, because it made his grandmother sad, it was the home her husband died in....Toboe went outside in the backyard, and changed into his wolf form, and dug up the bracelet. Then he went to find Mia in the same part of the city he first saw her in, but had trouble locating her, and hours passed and Toboe thought, "It's getting kinda late....better head back home...." and he started back home, but when he got about half-way there, he saw her running from some kid. "Get away from me you creep!", apparently the kid had done something wrong to her, and Toboe saw it and ran towards the scene. The kid says, "Hey, how about another kiss?! >:D", the kid was a little older than Mia, but Mia slaps him, and the kid blurts and says, "OW! Hey! What was that for?! I thought you like me?!", then Mia roars, "Don't you ever kiss me again!! I hate you, go away!" Then the kid replies, "FINE then! Have it your way, but you're coming with me!! >:D" Then he grabs her arm and tries to pull her and she screams, "HELP! Someone please help meee!!" Then Toboe runs at the kid, and Mia sees Toboe coming and yells, "Toboe?! AHHHH!!! YOU GET AWAY!!", and she clings to the kid so tight, that it begins to hurt him. "OUUCH!!", yells the kid. "What's your problem?! Just a minute ago you were trying to run from me! Is he bothering you?!" Then before she could answer him, Toboe turns into a wolf, and starts growling and bearing at the kid his fangs. "Let her go!!", yells Toboe angrily, "AHHHHHHHH!!!! *screams a high pitched scream* Don't you come any closer to me!", screams Mia. The kid was wide-eyed and completely frozen in fear, then he finally screams, "AHHHHH!!! What the heck?!?! How did you DO that?! It must be a trick, it must be! People can't change into dogs!!", "I can.", says Toboe, "And if you don't let her go, I'm going to BITE you!!" Then the kid wet his pants, and said frantically, ":O Um.....uh....uh..uh.....ok....ok...ok, please....please don't hurt me! Please I beg you, I was only playin' with her a little bit that's all, I didn't mean anything, I promise!", and then, he let her loose, but she was still clung to him like a vine. "See?! She won't let go of me! >< YOU'RE scaring her half to death!! Please! Please go away whoever you are!!" Then Toboe got shocked, and asks Mia, "Is this true Mia?? Are you scared of me just because I'm a wolf?? I told you that I won't hurt you, *looks down* and I never will...*tears*" Mia replies, "You're different to me Toboe, I can't do that like you can! I don't even know what you are, but we can NEVER be together again, now...now, please go away!!", and then Toboe sniffing, says, "Here Mia, I...I wanted you to have this, please take it....to remember me...please...", *lays the bracelet at Mia's feet and starts crying, :*( then howling*, and Mia calms down a little after listening to the howl, and picks up the bracelet and looks at it...."WOOW! This is pretty! :D Thank you Toboe! :) I'll never forget to remember you...." Then, when Mia was just about to pet Toboe on the head, a man comes in from out of nowhere it seems and grabs Toboe, and was gone before anyone realized.....Then the man runs inside an old, abandoned cabin, and changes into a wolf before Toboe's very eyes....and Toboe then said, "WOAH!! You're a wolf too?!?!" Then he starts to growl at Toboe, like he wanted to fight, Toboe squirms back a bit, and then the wolf spoke angrily, "You should NEVER show your true form to a human you fool!!! Are you trying to make the city suspicious?!?! I should kill you right here for making such a mistake!!! What do you think the kids are gonna do now?! They're gonna go tell their friends what they saw, and their friends are gonna tell their parents, and their parents are gonna FREAK out and go tell the guard station, and the guards will have this WHOLE DAMN city sieged inside their houses!!! No one will be able to wonder the streets, without getting SHOT at!!" *GRRRRRRR!!!!!!!* Then Toboe replies, "Ok! Sorry, calm down! I was just......" Then before Toboe could say another word, the wolf pounces on him, and gets right in his face, and snarls at him bearing his fangs, *Toboe shuts eyes tightly and grits teeth in fear* and shouts, "Calm down, CALM DOWN?!?!?!?! You obviously do NOT KNOW how serious this is!! DO YOU HAVE A BRAIN?!?!?!?! Don't you know the nobles?!?! The nobles order the guards to search for all wolves, and when sighted, capture and hold, then take them back to the nobles, where they then do HORRIBLE, UNPEAKABLE THINGS TO THEM!!! We NEVER, EVER, EVER, see those wolves again!!! I've lost SO MANY friends that way, that I hate the nobles SO MUCH, that I wish I could tear every one of them apart with my teeth!!" *Snarls ferociously* Toboe then screams, "I'M SORRY, I'M SORRY!!! OK, I GET IT!! SHEESH! What's your name anyways?!?!" Then he backs up and replies, "My name is Tsume, and I used to be part of a wolf pack....now I'm a loner, and wander the streets in search of wolves such as yourself! You had better be glad I rescued you and gave you this warning kid!! Otherwise, you'd probably be already caught by a guard and on the way to the castle! You better go tell those friends of yours to not talk about you too, if you're smart!! I just don't want the nobles capturing anymore wolves! It REALLY pisses me off!!" Then Toboe replies, "Th....Thank you Tsume! :)" "You're welcome kid. What is your name by the way?" "Oh....it's Toboe sir. :)" Then Tsume says to Toboe, "Kid, you and I need to stay together, and try and form a pack. That way, I know that you, and anyone else we get, will be safe. 'Cause you're still too green, you must not know too much about what's going on in the world around you, and I'm going to teach you how to be a real wolf!" Then Toboe notices, and says, "WOW! That scar! That's a cool scar Tsume, how did you get it?!" "What does it matter?! It's not a cool scar to me!" Then Toboe frowns a little, "Sorry, geez, I didn't know...." Then Tsume says, "You better listen to me and go find those kids one last time and tell them to keep your secret silent!" "Ok, I'll go right now!" Then Toboe leaves the cabin, and goes back to try and find Mia and the kid one last time to say farewell forever....and then, at the same time, at the noblemen's castle......"Shall we capture her sire?" "No.....let her come into range, then send out the Ravens...HAHAHAHAHA!!!" "Yes, my lord.....with pleasure....." *evil smirk*..........Then at the same time, Kiba was walking with Elune, talking about what she was going to do next......"I'm going to Castle Bervell, the noblemen's castle...rumours have it, they know a way to paradise, and hold something very important there....." "Then I'll go with you.", says Kiba, "If it's a hint to paradise, I'm in on it too!" "Great!! Then let's get going!" and with that, they start running towards the castle, and shortly thereafter come across the man that Hige had killed. "What happened here?!", Elune asks, "His neck has been torn apart! Are there other wolves in the city Elune?!" "Not that I know of.....I just came to this city yesterday..." Then they both looked puzzled, and then saw blood trails leading away, and followed them. Then they came into a jewelers, and it stopped....and they looked around, but saw nothing suspicious, then they overheard someone talking about how this young man earlier today came in with a crystal...Then they went back outside, and began to explore the entire area of the city, then Kiba notices someone suspicious looking walking around, carrying something shiny......and then they both run at him, but then he turns around and sees them coming, and then he runs into an alleyway, jumps off the wall, and lands on top of a building. "No normal human could do this!", says Elune. Then they jump on the rooftop of a building and give chase. Then they lose him in a dark alley....and begin to look around for him, and all of a sudden, he jumps straight out at Kiba as a wolf. Kiba gets startled, then angry, then they get into a small fight, "Who are you?! You are NOT taking this away from me!! I must deliver this to a woman!!" "We're not trying to take it away! Who are you and why are you in this city?!", replies Kiba. "I'm Hige, and if you know what's good for you, you better leave me alone! I know that you want this, otherwise, you would have never even noticed me!" Then Kiba and Elune change into wolfs, and Kiba says, "I don't care what you have!! Answer my question, why are you in this city?!" Then Elune notices the crystal around his neck, and says, "WOW! A crystal!! Where did you get THAT?!" "Stay back!" yells Hige. "Or you'll suffer the same fate as another!!" "So....you were the one who killed that man.....", says Kiba. "Yes. It was me." Then Kiba asks again, "What are your intentions in this city?!" "To live until the end of the world!" Then Kiba says, "No, come with us! Search with us for paradise!" "Paradise.....yeh I've heard of it....it sounds too nice to be true, but.....sure, where do we find it?" "Search with us, we're going to Castle Bervell....." "CASTLE BERVELL!! Are you two NUTS?! That's the noble's castle!! Noblemen hate wolves! Rumours have it they have been taking wolves there, and doing something horrible to them." Then Kiba gets angry, *GRRRRR* "What have they been doing Hige?!" "Horrible things, no one really knows, but once wolves go in there, they never come out..." Then Kiba stares at the castle sternly..........
