Dalina's story

Wolves vs Spiders

I've been walking for hours now. I was walking in a forest with a river flowing by my side. I stopped for a bit staring at the river, when suddenly a spider-demon pops up in front of me, it made me recede untill I stopped on my tracks realizing that I had just got stucked on a giant spider web.

- Look, what we have here! - it said revealing a creepy voice. - An half-demon, it's a good meal!

The demon start to get closer to me, I was whining in fear just hoping someone willing to help heard it. The demons giant jaws were inches apart from my neck. Then, out of the nowhere, three wolf-demons appeared, while one of them was fighting the spider, the other two ran in my direction and released me from the web. After a few minutes I was finally safe (for now), completely freaked out (hey, I almost gotten eaten by an insect) but safe!

- Thank for helping me! - I said politely to the trio.

- It was nothing! - said the black haired one. - Anyway, what's a little girl like you doing here on her own?

'WHAAT?! Did he just called me... little!? The only people allowed to do that are Inu and Sesshy, ONLY!' I tought getting annoyed at the wolf.

- First of all, I am not little, I'm fully grown up! - I said. - And second,... what I'm doing here is none of your concern flea bag!

- Flea bag!? You're bot in a great aspect yourself, you know? - he scream.

- Still better than you and your revolting wolf smell! - I scream also.

Tired of this, the other 2 demons covered the mouth of his companion, and one of them said:

- Sorry 'bout him, he's a little impulsive! By the way, my name's Ginta, this is Hakkaku and the one who you were screaming with is Kouga! - he said smiling and pointing the other two while speaking.

- Oh,.. well then, nice to meet you Ginta, Hakkaku! I'm Dalina! - I replied nicely.

Hakkaku let go of Kouga and made his way in my direction leaving the flea bag back.

- So what are you doing here? - he asked, but immediatly said - You don't have to say if you don't want to!

- Don't worry about that Hakkaku! - I giggled a bit at his statement. - To be honest, I'm on my way to meet up with my brother!

Then SOMEONE butts in into the conversation right after had noticed something.

- Why do you have dog ears, aaah... Dalina?! - asked Kouga.

- What kind of question is that!? You have a tail, but that's not reason enough so I can ask why you have it! - I replied lifting up my brow.

- That's not what I meant! - he apologized. - I meant to ask what your kind is!

- Oh... OK, I'm half-dog-demon and half-human! - it was my answer.

- I see! Say where were you heading to? If your way is South, you can come with us! - Kouga said.

- That's also my way! - I stated bluntly.

I was now an honorary member of Kouga's pack, while we were walking I got to know the three boys better, they were actually pretty nice, but the one who I got along better was surelly Ginta. I learned that they were trying to catch up with an hanyou and his group, Ginta said Kouga was in love by one of the human's of the group, they didn't say anything more about the matter.

It has been 2 days since I've been with them, we were now sitting by a tree to rest, and the lights in Kouga's legs were really getting me annoyed, I have been saving this question for me, but my brain was almost exploating so:

- Say Kouga... - I started.

- What is it Dalina? - he asked opening one of his eyes to look at me.

- I didn't want to ask this, but it's really getting on my nerves! - I said taking a deep breath. - What the hell are those lights in your legs?

- WHAT? - Ginta and Hakkaku screamed at the same time, giving me have a GIGANTIC scare that even made me jump.

- You mean... you can see them? - Ginta asked me carefully. I nodded in response.

- Can't you? I mean... - I didn't finished my sentence, since a girl screm was heard and, ince the three of them started jogging towards it, I followed.
