chapter 44

holy hell-bending christ...

you practically felt your paws sink into the ground like roots to a tree as your eyes roamed the massive wolf like creature before you. his long fur was a pure white that glowed in the sun's light. the massive beast glared down at you, eyes glowing like smoldering ember, snarling in what seemed to be an unknown anger as he lashed its tail side to side. his jaws parted, and you caught a glimpse of a bright burning yellow, with thick black smoke pouring from it.

it's... the hell hound... right in front of my face..!

it drank in your petrified state and snorted, as if it were amused. that shook you from your trance and you unsheathed your claws into the ground, fluffing out your pelt best you can. adrenaline took full swing, suddenly being taken by a defensive anger. "so... you finally show... the great demon hound... you have quite the reputation here in woundsworth... humans are throwing themselves at your paws like a dog to a treat!" you bared your teeth as a newfound surge of fury suddenly ignited in your chest. "many sacrifices... many lives... all just to please you!" you drop into a huntress crouch, flattening your ears to your head, a snarl emanating from your throat. "how giving a few repayments to them, o mighty hound of hell? to put an END to your silly LEGEND, huh?!"

the beast let out a deafening roar in response, lunging for you, mouth agape.

you smirked, whipping your head around to your make shift belt and latched your teeth onto a rusted, dirty handle. at once you pulled a rusted but relatively long, sharp dagger. clenching it tightly in your teeth, you couched as the massive dog closed in on you.

game on.

of course, he lunged for you mouth first, something you easily evaded with a single bound, allowing you to scramble up his snout, over his head and onto his withers. the beast snarled and whipped his head around to try and get a bite at you, but you sank your claws into his hide into a firm grip. at this point, he was romping about, spinning and jumping wildly to try and throw you off of him while you stubbornly clung to him. after a while you found an opportunity for your strike. after taking careful aim, you flick of your head, and jabbed the blade semi-deep into his powerful shoulder and dragged it down to his back, eliciting a loud roar of pain from the mighty hound, causing a jolt of thrill to fill your chest, as you dislodged the blade from his back and dug it into his hind leg, clinging to it like a tick. the hellbeast swung his furious head around and went to snap at your small body again with its powerful jaws, only for you to leap out of the way, and instead find his own fangs in his leg. as he yelped in surprise and pain, you neatly land on your feet watching in pride as the hound ogled his injuries in what looked like shock. however this shock lasted no longer than a millisecond as he turned toward you, fury adorn his features. "oh, excuse me." you grinned tipping your head to the side innocently. "did I graze you a bit?" he bared his teeth fiercely at you, black smoke rising from his heated maw. all at once, he charges at you, and this time he reared onto his hind legs and swatted at you with a clawed paw, prompting you to jump back as he raked a chunk of earth from the spot. you ran up to a nearby tree, restraining chuckles of amusement at the hound's astonishment. the beast glared daggers at you as you sheathed your weapon back under your collar-belt and gave him a cloying grin. "sorry about that." you reach around and clasp your teeth around another offering (dog) had given you. eck... that's an odd flavor... but... you pull it free and raise it into the light. it's worth a shot. to your surprise, the hound almost immediately stopped in his tracks as he caught sight of your next weapon.

a slightly worn, but still edible dog biscuit.

the massive wolf's eyes glittered at the sight, and a bit of dribble running down his maw. "you like that?" you asked waving the treat around, watching as he followed its movement. you tip your head back and coil your tail around the treat and hold the biscuit up in its grip. "if you want it," you wave the treat tauntingly down from the branch. "ya gotta get it!" in a blind moment of desire, the great white demon dog race towards the treat, tongue lolling from his mouth.

CRAASH!!

just before he could reach you, you leapt from the tree, watching in dispassion as the hound rammed into the tree, splintering it on impact and putting him in a temporary daze. eesh... was kinda expecting a little restraint on that one... the hound lifted itself from the rubble and shook out access wood shards from his fur, before wheeling around to fix you with a furious glare. you actually flinched at this and took a step back. uh-oh. the hound reared back with a deep breath and came back down onto his forelegs, belching out a thick stream of scarlet flames.

you managed to dodge away from the flames, but your whiskers got singed and your bell flew off your collar as you landed with a discordant ring against the dry ground. "hey now, hey now, let's not get overheated here!" tucking the treat into under your belt, you strutted upto the mighty hound and dipped your head humbly. "you demonstrate an extraordinary amount of sturdiness, o great demon." your ear twitches at the snort of triumph from the beast as he walks over to you and looms over you, drinking in your submission. you open your eye to see his massive paws mere inches from yours. aaaaand.... now!

you bunched your quarters beneath you and launched yourself onto his massive paw, sinking your teeth as deep as possible into his chest. he yelps in surprise and instinctively throws his paw up launching you up into the air, giving you time to coil your tail around the treat again and pull it free from your belt again. with a little flip, you landed on his muzzle, with a sly little glint in your eye. the beast crossed his eyes to glare at you as you laid on his muzzle and gave it a comforting pat with your paw. "sorry. adrenaline rush." you waved the treat up again and his gaze instantly lit up. "maybe this ought a make up for it?" he stood on his haunches, tongue lolling out of his mouth. you wave the treat around in your tail for a bit, watching as his eyes followed it. "gracious, great or small, you canines like your treats." you muttered to yourself, while stroking his muzzle. "well... your legend has brought strife to this small village..." you smirked and let a purr rumble in your throat. "but I think Henry Berry-brains caused it, now that I really think about it." you grinned cheerfully. "here's a reward for silencing his tomfoolery!" with a flick of your tail, you tossed the treat into his massive mouth. almost instantly, his eyes shut as the look of pure bliss took over his features.

you purred in amusement, but it faltered as you felt the hound wobble like a tower ready to fall over. "h-hey, whoa whoa, steady!" you hissed, latching onto his muzzle. you yelp as the hound fell over like a massive oak tree, the impact causing a thick cloud of dust and dirt to rise up.

in your daze, you managed to feel two hands grasp you and lift you up. shaking off your dizziness, you blink up at a pale-skinned man with wild white hair stare down at you with curious crimson eyes. you smirked slyly at him. "I think we know who the real legend is."

he furrowed his brow for a moment, before he humble dipping his head to you and picking you up and carrying you into clearer air.

"bravo!"

your ears pricked at a familiar voice. "oh, bravo! quite a spectacular show that was, dear mistress!"

Mr. Michaelis?

you turn towards the source of voice and sure enough, sebastian was standing there, clapping with a prideful smile on his face. beside him the servants were going wild.

"YEAH, YOU SHOWED HIM SOMETHIN' (NAME)!" bard cheered.

"hooray for (name)! you're the greatest kitty the Manor could ever ask for!" finny piped.

"such a brave, graceful lady, she is!" mey-rin clapped.

"ho ho ho!" tanaka cheered.

pride swelled up in your chest and you lifted your head letting a purr rumble in your throat.

"And she's quite the risk-taker, she is..."

your chest froze at a small young voice breaking through the cheers.

uh-oh...
