Here is a story that ive been working on for a while now, PM me if you wanna be in it or something!
Murder Forest
Chapter 1
It was a quiet evening when I heard a loud bang. I awoke from what seemed to be a nap and pricked my ears up. "What was that?" I asked my father who was beside me. "I..I don't know Amaya ," my father said, "It cant be good though." He told me to go back inside to my younger sister, Cora, who was crying. "Shhhh, it's okay Cora," I said,"Father will be back soon." I wrapped my long silky black tail around her. I looked like my mother, jet black. I had the long fur like my father. He nicknamed me "jet". I snickered at the thought.
Later that night I went outside to see if Father was back, he wasn't. I sat down on a large boulder outside the small, damp cave we called home. Cora came outside and set her dark grey head on my front paws. "I coulden't sleep," she said," I keep wondering where Papa is." I looked at her with my soft amber eyes. "Im sure he's just fine, he just went to go see what that noise earlier was." She could tell I was worried, too.
A couple hours later I took Cora back inside, because she had fallen asleep. I set her down on her soft pad on the floor. I lied down beside her and sighed. I layed my head on her back, and slowly drifted to sleep. The dream was horrible. I dreamt that my father was killed in a fire while saving me and Cora. I shot up with a whimper. Cora was still sleeping silently. I looked at her gently and put my tail around her and tried to sleep once again.
I awoke the next morning. Cora was already awake chasing crickets outside the cave. I walked out to her and sat on the boulder and watched for my father. He had never been out this long before. I told Cora to go inside while i went hunting for food. She went and immediately started swating moths that we shared our cozy home with. I turned around and darted into the forest. I wasn't searching long when i saw a huge buck. He looked in my direction but i ducked into the shadows and crawled. I was behind him now. I sprang with incredible speed and leaped onto his back and sank my teeth in. He tensed up then slumped over. My father taught me that move. When I was 2. I was 4 now and was nearly old enough to take care of myself. Cora was 11 months old, still a cub.
I grabbed my kill and started back home. I was nearly there when a heard a twig break behind me. I shivered and turned to discover my father! He was bleeding all around his snow white coat. "Papa!" I screamed, "what happened?!" "Nothing," he said,"Go get Cora and get out of here..." He trailed off into a painfull moan and slumped over. "Papa!!" I yelled and ran to his side."Jet, tell your sister I love her,"he said trying to hide the shiver in his voice," I love you too Jet..." A tear ran down my face."Don't talk like that! Your gonna be fine!" I yelled. He looked at me with pain-filled eyes, then they slowly shut. I sniffed his face. He was dead. The leader of the wolves, gone.
Here I stood. Looking at the only family I ever had. Dead. Lying next to his body I burried my head between his arms, and cried. Still lying there I priked up my ears and heard a small voice calling my name. It was Cora. I shot up and wiped the tears from my face with my paw. Cora appeared from behind a huge oak tree. "There you are," she said happily,"I've been looking all over for you!" She started my way. I didn't want her to see her father like this so I ran to her. "I'm so sorry Cora, I got carried away. I caught a big deer, lets go home and eat it." I tried to look happy. She believed me and ran in the other direction and yelled for me to catch her. I looked at my father's lifeless body and said to myself, "Father, i won't let your death go that easily.." I trailed off and darted toward home.
Cora, of course, was already there. "What took so long?" she said with a I-won-you-didn't look."I had to get the buck," I said," here, I know you' re hungry." I dropped the buck in front of her. "Now then, eat, it'll get dark soon" I said turning around. "Now where are you going?" Cora asked. "I'll be back soon, don't worry about me, now eat," I said," then go to bed, okay? I'll be back late, so don't stay up waiting for me." She nodded and started eating. I looked at her gently and ran into the forest.
Chapter 2
Once in the forest I noticed that it was getting darker. I could hear noises, all around me. My father once told me that when you are scared you are supposed to think about the things that are most Important to you, the things that would be most important. Cora. She is the only real family i have now that Father has died... Even him, well, he was my step-father. He found me when i was so little. He said i was so little, my eyes had barely opened. But cora....... I've been watching over her since she was born.
~~*Flashback*~~
"Whats wrong pappa?" I asked. "Your mother is in labor. The puppies should be here any minute" He said with a little bit of excitement in his voice. "Yay!," I shouted," I get more brothers and sisters!!" Then suddenly i heard a ear-shattering exblosion. I bolted out of the cave. I couldn't believe my eyes. The forest surrounding my home was all in firey ruins!! "Dad?!" I screamed. "Where are you!!??" Turning to the side i saw a small, dark object under a fallen tree. I trotted to it and rolled the tree over. A small whine alarmed me of what it was. ONE OF MY SISTERS! I picked her up by the scruff of her neck and bolted back toward the cave. Almost there i tripped over something. I got up with the puppy still in my mouth. I looked at what i tripped over. Tears rolled down my cheeks.
It was the charred remains of my mother. "MAMMA!!" I screamed. Father came running doun the hill. "what is it?" He asked suddenly. I moved out of the way for him to see. "wha..." Was all he could stammer. The puppy wriggled on my back. "oh, yeah, I found one of the pups." "Is it okay," he asked "Yeah, it is a little shooken up, but it shou...." I was inturrupted by a huge pain in my left leg. "Amaya!" My father yelled. A cougar was latched on to my leg, growling madly. I snarled and did a quick turn to bite his neck, but his quickness decieved me. When i turned he let go of my leg and latched onto my neck! "Amaya no!!" Father yelled and bolted toward me. But he was cut off by 3 more cougars. "AMAYAAAA!!!" My dad yelled. The 3 cats attacked him all at once.
The cougars jaws clenched harder around my neck. I felt the fangs protruding through my skin. Suddenly i heard a small growl and the cougar yelled in pain. Cora was latched onto his ancle! A mere pup. *This is my chance!* I said to myself. I lept into the air and sank my fangs into his throat and ripped it open. Panting, i picked up the youngling and headed over to my father. He had killed all the cougars when I got there. "I..Is the pup okay?" He murmmered. "Yes," I panted," She actually saved me in fact..." "Heh." He said under his breath. "C'mon Jet, lets go back ho..." My eyes widened in awe. A GIANT cat had scooped my father up in his huge jaws.
"Pappa!!" I screamed. The cat chuncked my father far away. He came toward me with incredible speed. I managed to dodge it. Suddenly something struck me. *The pup?!* I thought to myself still in the air. When i landed i bolted back to the cat, ran under its legs, grabbed the pup, and skinned back away as fast as I could. The cat cought me by suprise and whacked me with its giant paw. I went flying and the pup fell out of my grasp. *Oh no!* I said to myself. The cat cought the pup. I landed on my feet and bolted back toward the cat. "Give back my sister!!" I screamed wildly. I lept up high and latched onto his eye.
He let loose a stomach-clenching roar and my sis fell off his paw. While he was falling down *took a while* I lept off his carcass and cought my sis before she hit the ground. Standing up i felt a spine-tingling pain run up my side. I looked around in shock to find that the cat had impaled me with his claw. I felt me going limp. All was black...
~~**End Flashback**~~
I awoke from my daze. I was lying in a hollowed out log. I crept out and looked up at the full moon. There was somethink different about this moon, it wasn't the clear blue like normal, it was red. An eerie blood red. I started walking again. The forest is very hard to get turned around in. Suddenly i heard a twig break behind me. I stiffened. Slowly I turned around to digsuver my worst nightmare...a sabertooth tiger was snarling at me. *Oh, great...* I thought 2 myself. I turned completely around and started glrowling as well. "Hmm, its been a long time huh?" He said to me. "W...what are you talking about?" I asked. "Im guessing it was your father I killed, am i right missy?" He had an evil smile on his face.
" YOU'RE THE one WHO KILLED MY FATHER?!" I Screamed. " I am. He said smiling. "Y...you!" I screamed and bolted toward him with full force. "Killing your father was easy enough, now its your turn!" He yelled. Standing there ready for my attack. I came at him and latched onto his shoulder. "Is that all you got girl!" He said and smacked me with his paw. I fell to the ground. "Oh, i never properly introduced myself," He said smugly, "Im Soto, leader and commander of the powerful sabers." "I don't care who you are, you killed my father, PREPARE TO DIE!" I yelled. I jolted around and before i could sink my teeth in he had his long sabers in my back. I let out a pain-filled whimper and fell to the ground.
Blood formed a pool around me. He ripped his sabers out of my side and said, " Just as I thought, you and your father are just alike. WEAK!" I was lying there...in my pool of blood...when suddenly I heard a small snarl. The tiger yelled in pain. "C..or..a?" I said painfully. She was ontop the beast with her fangs sunk into the back of nis neck. She was growling furiously. She started ripping at his back with her claws and teeth. Soto was bucking and howling in pain. One hard buck sent Cora flying into the air. She landed on her feet. Soto was dumbfounded. *How could a little cub like this bring me down.* he thought to himself. He turned around and bolted off in the other direction.
"Maya! Are you okay?!" She came running in my direction. I managed to get the dignity to stand. "W...what are you doing here? I told you to stay home!" I yelled. "I wanted to help you..." She said. "I dont care! You could have gotten seriously hurt!" "But..." She inturupted. "Is it true Maya? Is Papa really dead?" I didn't answer. "Why didn't you tell me?" She looked up at me with her clear blue eyes. "I...I didn't want you to know. I thought it would be too much for you to understand." "Amaya, im not a baby anymore, i need you to start telling me things. I feel like....well, like I dont count." She said. She walked under my front paws and lied down. "Cora, you do count. Without you, I dont have a reason to live anymore. You are my sister, your right. I should've told you about Papa." I lied down next to her. "Cora, I will surely protect you..." With that, he both swept off into a deep sleep
Chapter 3
I awoke to a voice. "Is she gonna be okay Diego?" Someone said. I opened my eyes to find nine other wolves standing over me. "Huh?" I moaned. "Who are you?" "I am Diego. Leader of this small pack. We found you and your small sibling lying in blood in the forest. Well, and being the good souls we are, we needed to your wounds and fed the little one." The light brown wolf said. "Little one?" I said, "Oh, Cora! Where is she!?" I shot up. Still sore from last nights battle. "I said Where is she!" I growled. "Im right here silly!" Cora walked out from behind a boulder. "Im fine Maya, these nice wolves helped you. You should be greatful!" She said, and sat down next to me. "And who are the rest of you?" I asked. "Oh, how rude of me." Diego explained. "This is Lauru, and 2 kids, Coura and Milieru. These over here are Ukina, Yusuke, Sano, Midnite, and Karou. Others we have picked up along our journey." I sat down, deciding that they weren't gonna hurt us.
He told me about sabers seperating their original pack, and the one that attacked us was the leader of all the sabers. "Wow, so the bastard who tryed to kill me was the leader huh?" I said. "But what I dont get is, why did he attack us?." Diego came and sat next to me. He was a handsome young wolf. Light brown all over. For the exception of his left ear and tip of his tail, which were black. He was probably a little older than me. But not very much. "Well," he said. "Soto just kills wolves for the fun of it. He's a heartless killer. Any wolf he sees is like a walking target to him." He got up. "We would like for you to stay with us. Come with us on our journey." Where to?" I asked. "Dosn't matter where does it?" He answered. I looked over to Cora. She was smiling. "Can we Amaya? Pleeeeeease?" She got up on all fours and wagged her tail. "Well..." I hesitated. "We dont have ANYWHERE else to go. I gues we could tag along. As long as it gets us to where we're going." "WELL DECIDED!" Diego said, rejoicing.
We began our journey. Walking. On and on, days without food. It was worth it.In the years I was with him I had grown extremely close to Diego. Closer than I could've ever imagined. I was always by his side. Running, walking, snow, rain. I was always there. One particular nite, it was a full moon. But it seemed different now that I had Diego. It seemed more enjoyable. It was long into the night. Me and Diego were lying next to eachother in a deep slumber. I was awoken by a painfilled scream. I jolted up to find Soto. His sabers were stuck into Ukina. "Ukina!!" I screamed. I Bolted to the young wolves' aid. Latching onto Soto's neck. "You! You're still alive?!" He said in shock. 'Yep, alive and kickin!' At the same time i said that I swung around onto his back. Looking down I saw the scars that Cora left him from her supprising assult. "Whoa.." I said, slightly supprised.
With that i sank my fangs into the back of his neck. I felt him tense up, then go limp. I jumped off his carcass and ran to Ukina. "Hey, are you okay?" I asked. She didnt answer. Blood had formed a pool around her. "Ukina!" I yelled. "Wake up!" I nuged her with my nose. Getting blood all over it. Diego awoke moments later and came running. "Amaya, what's happened?!" He said pushing me out of the way. "Ukina!!" He yelled. "Amaya how could you!" He yelled at me. "Wha...what are you talking about?! I didnt do this!" I said. "Oh yeah, then why is her blood all over your muzzle!!" "I was trying to..." He didnt give me time to answer. He bolted at me and latched his long fangs into my right side. "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!" I screamed. Out of instinct I bit his left thigh and started ripping at it. He howled in pain.
This senceless fight went on for hours. I was bloody all over. Cuts, bruises, bite marks, claw stabs....everywhere on me. "Diego.....why won't you let me explain?!" I yelled at him. He was fine. Only 1 or 2 bite marks here and there. "Because you killed Ukina, I will never forgive you Amaya!!" He lunged at me, sinking his fangs into my neck. He started thrashing maniacly. Ripping my throat open. The pain was unbearable. I didnt fight back anymore. This was stupid. He let go. I fell forward, muzzle-first into the earth. I coughed up some blood onto the ground. Not one spot on me was not bloody. I saw Diego standing over me. Then all was black.
Chapter 4
~~**Flashback**~~
"Daddy..." A young teen girl said. "Yes sweety, what is it?" A big broly man looked up from his work bench. "I found a little puppy, can I keep her, please?" The girl said holding a small black puppy up so her father could see it. "I don't know Karen, it's a wild dog, it could hurt you." "No she won't, I promise to take care of her and everything. I'll feed her, bathe her, water her, Everything!" She pleaded. "Okay sweety, you can keep her. I know you can take good care of her." The father said. "Oh thank you pappa!!" The girl gave her father a hug and ran outside to play with her new puppy.
Years past, Karen had named the pup Amaya. Now Amaya was an adult, so was Karen. She would always take Amaya for a walk. Every day, for hours at a time, Amaya loved her owner and her peaceful life. One day Karen and her dog were running the trail as they always did. Karen on her horse, and Amaya following behind. Today seemed different. There was a scent of danger in the air. Amaya noticed this a while back. Amaya pricked her ears up and stopped running. "Whats wrong Amaya?" Karen asked. Amaya started growling. Karen hopped off her horse and jogged over to Amaya. "Whats wrong?" She asked again. A twig broke behind them and Amaya whipped around to find a STRANGE looking.....thing. It was a dog-looking......thing. With horns coming out of his head. Not Amaya nor Karen had seen anything like this before. Its eyes, were the most distinguishing, glowing crimson.
Amaya stepped up infront of Karen. "You foolish wolf." The thing said. "Wha? How did you know I was a wolf?" Amaya said in supprise. Karen was on the ground, sitting, afaraid. Though she didn't understand what the creatures were saying, she listened. "I just know, because i used to be one." He said. "What, how, you used to be a wolf? Like me?" Amaya said. "Heh heh, yes, i USED to. You know how humans can sell theis souls to the devil for power? Well, wolves can to!" The thing transformed into this ugly GIANT wolf deamon. Amaya stood there in awe. "And now, for no exact reason, i'm gonna kill both of you!" He lunged at Amaya and Karen. "Oh no you dont!" Amaya yelled, bolting at the demon. "Amaya come back!" Karen yelled.
Amaya jumped high into the air and latched onto the demon's shoulder. The demon didnt even seem to flinch! He ripped Amaya off his shoulder and pounded her onto the ground. Growling, Amaya got up and attacked again, this time landing on his shoulder again, in the same place. Thrashing and clawing at his skin, ripping it open. The demon yelled in pain. He grabbed Amaya again and threw her to the ground. Amaya smashed into the earth. When the dust cleared Karen saw Amaya alive and standing. The demon appeared infront of Amaya with a sword. "AND WHERE DID HE GET THAT?!" Amaya said to herself. The demon took a swing at Amaya with the sword. Amaya jumped out of the way. While in the air, Amaya saw something, a dagger just APPEARED in the demon's hand! The demon turned around quickly and impaled Amaya strait through the side. Amaya fell to the ground in horrible pain.
"AMAYAAAAAAAAAA!" Karen shouted in a tear-filled blur. She got up and ran to Amaya. "Are you okay?" She said crying. Amaya opened up one eye, pain shot through her body, just as the blood that pumped through her veins. She jumped with pain. "Don't move Amaya. You're hurt...." "Awww, how sweet...." The demon said, "The little human cares for the beast." "Shut up, just SHUT UP!" Karen screamed, holding Amaya's head on her lap. She got up slowly, lying Amaya's head down. "You've taken away the only happiness I ever had." Karen said walking toward Diablos. "I no longer have any reason to live." She stopped infront of the demon and just stood there. "Hmmm, what? You would risk your life for a mere wolf? How foolish." The demon snickered. "Heh, stupid human. You waste your life!" He bolted toward Karen with his knife. Karen shut her eyes and waited for the end. Nothing happened. She opened her eyes. Amaya stood there with her fangs sunk into Diablos's neck. He went limp and splashed to the ground in his own pool of blood.
"Amaya, your okay!" She ran to Amaya's side and burying her face into her warm black fur. They sat there for a few minutes and Karen took her face out of Amaya's fur. "Wait a second, if that wolf-demon could talk....." She reached her hand to touck Amaya's snout. Amaya turned her head away. "Can you talk Amaya?" She looked at Amaya. Amaya looked up at Karen. "Yes, I can...." Amaya said to Karen. Shocked, Karen asked. "Can you turn into a human, too? Amaya said. "Yes, but I really dont want to, I...." Amaya was inturrupted by Karen infront of her. "You can tell me Amaya, Im your friend." Karen smiled. "Well, I dont know Karen..." Karen put Amaya's paw in her hand. "Please?"
Amaya looked at the ground and closed her eyes. Before Karen even blinked there was a young girl sitting right in front of her. The paw that was once in her hand was a hand, just as hers. "Amaya?" Karen stumbled. Amaya opened her eyes revealing a soft amber color. The girls stood up. Amaya's black hair swayed in the wind. She was wearing a beautiful yellow blouse with black leather-flared pants. Amaya dusted herself off. Then she looked at Karen. "Im sorry I didnt tell you sooner. I was afraid you wouldn't like me anymore." Supprisingly Karen ran to her and gave her a hug. Amaya was dumbfounded, but hugged back. "Why would you think that Amaya? You are my friend, I would never forget you." The one moment of love and compassion was shattered. Karen fell to the ground, dead. Diablo stood there with a sword in his hand, barely alive. "If I cant have her then you cant either!" Diblos shouted and fell to the ground. Amaya fell to her knees. "Karen....no." She held Karen's lifeless body, in a tear-filled emotion that just took over. Crying, Amaya put her down. She got up and ran into the forest, to never be seen as a human again.
~~**END FLASHBACK**~~
Chapter 5
Amaya slowly awoke, one eye at a time. "Amaya, Amaya! Are you okay?!" Cora's voice broke the silence. "AMAYA!" She yelled. "W....what happened?" I mumbled. "Diego attacked you, and apperantly he won." Karou said. I got up and sat in front of Karou. "Where is he?" I said to him in a VERY serious voice. "Right here." A voice interrupted. Diego stepped out from behind a boulder. I growled and pounced onto him. "Amaya stop." Cora said. I looked over at her and slowly got off of Diego. "Im so sorry Amaya, " Diego said sadly. "I now know what really happened. You didn't kill Ukina. It was the tiger. I was wrong to be so quick to kill. I hope you will forgive me for my horrible mistake." His head lowered infront of me. "I forgive you Diego, but this is for you..." I said. I slashed him across the snout. 4 scratches appeared on his muzzle. "Heh, I deserved that, didnt I?" He said. "Yes!" I yelled at him.
^^**A Few Months Later**^^
The pack gathered at the exit of the city. Diego came running up. "Whats happening?" He said. "Diego," I explained, " We're leaving the city. If we stay here we will have to spend the rest of our lives in hiding or worse. We cant live with the humans anymore and survive. To the humans we represent terror. Things keep happening to our pack." Diego looked up at me and said," There are all kinds of things that happen in this world, and you cant do very much about most of it. But sometimes just waiting to see what happens makes the journey fun." He looked at me and smiled. "I agree, we should leave."
"Wait just a minute!" Sano yelled, "Do you have any idea what leaving the city would mean?!" "Actually, yes i do." I said. "You'll just die!" He yelled again. "Possibly," I said standing up, " We're all gonna die, it's a natural part of life. But if your life has no purpose then your dead already!!" I yelled at him. Pissed off, i shoved him aside and started out the gate. I turned my head, "Those who dont want to die had better follow me." I said. Diego, Yusuke, Cougra and Milieru, Midnite, and Karou came over to me. Sano, all alone, turned around and headed back to the city. "Sano wait!" Milieru called. "It's okay Milieru," I said," Sano has lost his pride as a wolf, he has no common sence." I turned Milieru around and told the pack, "I've heard of a place, a wonderful place, where wolves reign suppreme. No cougars, hyenas, or humans. Paradise." The pack, eager to know more of this dream world, sat down and pricked their ears up. "So, i think we should search for paradise, if anyone has any better idea of what we should do as a pack, stand up now." No one stood, "Well decided everyone, we run as a pack!" With that new determination we all started our journey.
Our journey had begun, the road is rough and we have nothing to eat. It's much harder than when we were in the city. But I dunno, it's kinda nice, it feels like i've got my friends with me. The more the merrier when your on a journey, right?
One day, when we were walking thorough the snow, a young girl appeared. She looked over to us. "Wolves?" She said in a soft voice. I put my ears up flat against my head and backed up a step. "It is okay young wolf, 'This One' will not hurt you." She said taking a step toward me. She smelled so good. Like flowers. She put one hand on my head, then the other. She bent over onto her knees and hugged me. "This one has been waiting for this moment." Her voice swifted through my ears. She seemed so calm. A chill ran down my spine. "You!" I said in supprise, "Your the flower maiden!" "Yes young one," she said softly, "I've been searching so long to find the wolves." Karou walked up to the maiden, sniffed her, then looked up to her. "It really is her, the flower maiden, Cheza." He said in shock.
We let the girl stay with us. Just as long that she got us to where we're going. I could tell that everyone in the pack had a soft spot for her. Even Karou and me. The two misterious ones. Heh. Who would of thought. So, cheza was with us. She stayed with us, through thick and thin. She was a good to all of us. Such a sweet girl. Cheza.
Chapter 6
One day, under a sunfilled sky, a pack of hyenas were making their move on the pack. One hyena at a time the slowly broke through the pack. Diego, Amaya, Karou, Midnite, and Cora were the only ones with minor injuries. Diego took a couple of bite wounds and claw stabs. Amaya had a slash over her eye bleeding fusiously and bite and claw marks. Karou was taking a LOT, claw marks everywhere, a pretty deep tooth stab to the throat. Yet he was still holding up somehow. Midnite was infront of Cora, protecting her from any danger. He was bleeding all over and yet, still continued to protect the one he loved. Last, Cora. She was completely okay. All because of Midnite risking his life for her. Young love.
