Kiba

The white wolf wandered the alleys of this city following a smell of the lunar flowers. He was in search of paradise...
As he wandered the alleys he saw an adult man whipping and beating a wolf, his fur frizzled up and he ran snarling and lunged at the man crunching down on his abdomen.

*Human & Wolf*

The man was knocked over and part of his abdomen was seized between Kiba's jaws. With a painful cry, he brought one of his fists full-force down over the attack wolf's nose. With the other hand, which he had his whip, he tried to lash at the wolf. But, it was hard to do that when he was pinned on the ground.

The other wolf picked himself up after he had been cringing under the frightful blows of his master. His fur, a mixture of brown, tan, black, and white, carried traced of blood here and there where the whip had dug through his summer coat and into his skin. His ears were laced back, and he didn't speak yet.

Kiba

Kiba released the man, jumped back and yelped. He leaped forward again and clamped onto the man's neck trying to bite into the jugular vein.

*Man & Wolf*

The man was in the process of picking himself up after Kiba sprang back, but then pain in his abdomen cause him to hunch forward a moment with a wince. Because of that small delay, he wasn't able to get up in time and shield his throat. Kiba's fangs again met their mark and drove in deep, hitting the jugular veins. Dropping the whip, the man reached both hands up to squeeze around the wolf's throat. But soon he would be dead from blood loss.

The other wolf watched with wide eyes still. He had a chain around his neck that was attached to a leather collar, which he couldn't reach with his own teeth, or he would be free by now. The young wolf still didn't speak.

Kiba

Kiba refused to let go, the man seemed to be dead. After 10 minutes, Kiba released the man's neck and looked at the wolf.
Kiba then ran deeper into the alley and continue his search for paradise.

*Other Things*

The wolf watched with anxious eyes as Kiba left, then looked down at his dead 'master'. A few moments later, the howls of the wolf could be heard echoing across the canyon of buildings. The sound died away as Kiba moved further down the dank alley ways.

The alley that Kiba went down branched off in many ways; the whole area was several square miles in size. If he continued on straight, he would come across a semi-busy street. A few of the alleys that branched from the one he was on where dark and narrow; some carried the scent of other canines. Some carried the scent of blood. Human stench and garbage were everywhere. The low sound of human voices came from under a nearby archway.

Kiba

Kiba chose the branch that went straight for the semi-busy street. He hated humans and didn't care for other canines unless they were being hurt or in need of paradise. All he wanted was to live in paradise.

*Dangers*

A small car blasted its high-pitched horn at Kiba as it whizzed by, but the driver didn't care to slow down. He was in a hurry, but going no where in particular. A few more vehicles sped by, but most didn't pay any heed to the wondering wolf.

A half-flattened young opossum lay on the side of the road. The slow-witted creature had been a victim of the careless humans on the road, and a reminder to others of just how dangerous crossing this simple bit of concrete could be. A group of three crows alighted on the ground nearby. Two hopped closer to the opossum, and the other gave Kiba a curious look. "You a pet?" it questioned.

Kiba

*growls* 'No I am not a pet and never will be a pet! I live as a free and wild wolf and shall not ever be captive!'

*Crows*

"I see, I see." the crow replied lightly, seeming unphased by the growl. "If you really want to stay that way, this is a poor place to be. Humans will either try to kill you here or capture you; of course, they do the same in the wild, but this is their environment." He explained a bit.

The two crows begin to peck at the carcass, ignoring their companion and Kiba.

Kiba

So? I smell the scent of the lunar flowers. Nothing will stop me from seeking paradise*snarls and snaps at the crows*

*Crows*

The crows took to the air, quite startled by his hostile reaction. They landed on a nearby light post and looked down at him. "Suit yourself! But don't be expecting help from are kind when the humans have captured you!" He retorted angrily.

Kiba

I do not require help...

Kiba ran across the semi-busy road trying to avoid traffic

*Crows & Cars*

They watched on, talking amongst themselves.

Kiba nearly made it across the street, but a speeding little truck passed a slower van in head of it. Because of this, the driver didn't see Kiba in time, and he probably didn't have much time to react either. The little truck came boring down on the wolf with the sound of screeching tires and a blaring horn. The corner of the truck rammed the wolf's hindquarters and threw him to the ground. Before the lady could completely stop the little truck, one of the wheels ran over a hind leg of Kiba's and fractured a bone.

Very suddenly, many people were scrambling out of their vehicles to see if the lady was all right. A few ran over to Kiba, although not many of them looked friendly; they seemed more concerned with whether he was a danger to them or not.

Kiba

Kiba shook his head and struggle to get up and snarled and growled and snapped.

He started to limp off....

*Humans*

The group of humans gave him a wide berth at first, alarmed by his aggression, but not much surprised. After a moment's hesitation, two men ran forward. One had picked up a cro-bar from his vehicle and the other took up a long chain. The cro-bar man tried to run over and cut in front of Kiba, while holding up his weapon threateningly.

The other man tried to sneak up behind the wounded wolf while looping the chain at the end so he could try to get it around Kiba's neck.

Kiba

though injured he leaped as far as his injury would allow and snarled growled spit and bared his teeth and threatened attack

*Humans*

The cro-bar man wielded his weapon and just narrowly missed striking the wolf in the head. The guy with the chain hesitated again, not wanting to get too near such an angry wolf. "Go ahead, hit 'im already!"

"I know, shut up!" he growled back at the man and stepped closer to Kiba again, raising the metal bar up. Watching the gleaming fangs, the human swung his heavy weapon at Kiba's head. If Kiba didn't get out of the way, he would be knocked out by the blow.

Kiba

Kiba as quick as his injury allowed moved off and lunged at the guy with the crow bar trying to bite the jugular vein

*Humans*

After putting so much force into his swing, he couldn't possibly pull back in time to fend off the wolf; and, not being the brightest around, the man didn't think to drop the cro-bar and try to shield his throat. Kiba was able to reach his desired goal and his fangs punctured the life veins.

While the stricken man struggled with Kiba, the other human rushed forward quickly slipped the chain around the wolf's neck. Being a chain, it was rather hard for the man to tie it, so he just twisted it together to try and choke the wolf, while also pulling back to try and get him off the other man.

Kiba

Kiba released the man and bite the man with chain's leg

*Humans*

The first man fell to the ground, clasping his torn neck as other crowded around him, trying to help.

The man with the chain gave a painful cry, but he knew if he let go of the chain, he'd be in worse trouble with this wolf. Knowing very well Kiba could break his leg, he decided to risk that as he twisted the chain tighter, making it hard for the wolf to breath and constricted blood flow.

Kiba

Clamping down as hard as he could he rip the leg open as he felt a little woozy. He released the leg and went for the face for the man had fallen.

Bullet

The large hybrid had returned to the Alleys, which his pack had more or less claimed as their territory. While they didn't mind the odd wolf or dog wondering around in it, they despised all the humans. Bullet crouched in the shadows of some trash cans as he watched what was going on. Kiba would pass out soon if the chain was kept on much longer. Then he'd be at the mercy of the humans, who'd surely kill him.

Without a snarl, the hybrid rushed out and launched his mass at the man with the chain. His powerful jaws aimed to seize the man by the back of the neck and break it.

Kiba

Kiba stopped at stared at the wolf that mawed the man and crepted backwards to other people.

*Humans*

The humans were in an uproar now; a large crowed had gathered just as the stricken, cro-bar wielding man had died. Kiba had slunk into their mists and Bullet just assaulted the other man.

The chain man fell face first to the ground, dropping the chain which freed Kiba from its grasp. Being such a frail race, the human's neck couldn't with stand the tremendous pressure of a canine's jaws; he was killed quickly.

The humans scattered away from Kiba as he crept towards them. They didn't have any weapons at the moment. But if he stayed any longer, someone was bound to show up with a gun or something other.

Kiba

Kiba stared at the people and limped away favoring his broken leg until it would heal

*Humans*

The humans in this particular group were too frightened to dare follow after him. By the time police and other people arrived, Kiba was gone and none of the frightened humans could quite recall just where he went.

A few humans rushed Bullet now.

Bullet

He stepped slowly back from the dead human, bristling his fur and flashing his teeth, but pulling his ears back to show the crowd he didn't want any more trouble. But his snarling warned them he would kill if they pressed him. He was going to follow after Kiba, but he thought twice about entering the large crowd. Instead, he turned while their attention was on Kiba, and ran off.

Kiba

Kiba continued through the sidewalks that were nearly un-occupied. The humans shrieked and stood still as he walked by. He was still following the scent of the lunar flowers

Kiba

He walked by a group of adults flattening his ears and baring his teeth to show he just wants to past by...

*Humans*

The news of the attack spread quickly through the area, so just about everyone out in the open was on guard now. Not knowing much about wolf postures and what they meant, the foolish band of adults thought the flattened ears were a warning of attack. And ignorantly thinking that bared teeth defiantly preceded an attack, the humans readied themselves. Three of them made a mock rush at Kiba, yelling and throwing their hands up to frighten him off.

Kiba

Kiba was not afraid but he continue to threaten them so they could run away. He quickly went on his way still baring his teeth and lowering his tail.

Kiba

Kiba ran through the dark alleys and ran into a gang of humans. They looked at him and laughed and surrounded him....

*Humans*

There were eight of them, and their laughing was malicious. As they surrounded him, they began to kick at the wolf while being careful to watch out for his fangs. You can see that at least one human has a gun; the others might have them in their pockets, but you can't tell yet. The one with a gun points it down at Kiba and fires...

Kiba

The bullet had met its target. Kiba yelped and flew a little backwards from impact. The humans gloomed over him and he immediately got up and flatten his ears and lowered his tail and snarls...

*Humans*

Laughing all the more cruelly, the humans kicked out at the wounded wolf without remorse. Kiba's blood stained their shoes and boots now. They had one thing in mind; money. If they could render this wolf helplessly near death, they could easily haul him off to some facility that would give them money in return for him. Wolves in these parts were seen a great menace, so cruelled against them was often looked over.

Toboe

*snarling came from behind the humans. a fresh tan and brown wolf stood there. he kept his head low to protect his neck. he bared his gleaming fangs and lunged at a man. he was close enough not to miss. it was so sudden they couldn't expect it.*

*Humans*

The man was thrown forward and landed on Kiba. Although this would knock the wind out of the already injured wolf, it protected him from all the kicking for the moment. The stricken man gave a loud cry and tried to throw Toboe off, but the brown-hued wolf could kill him with a bite to the neck before the man could stop him.

The other men turned their savagery on this new wolf. Toboe was over the one of their members, so the gun man decided not to risk shooting just yet. Instead, they went to kicking and punching at Toboe. With so many humans, the wolf was bound to get hit by at least some blows.

Toboe

*grabbing a hold of the mans neck he started to drag him off kiba. he winced slightly as a punch landed on his haunches but he bit the mans neck harder.*

*Humans*

The man was quickly killed. More punches fell on Toboe now. And realizing the man had been killed, the gun-man didn't hesitate about using his gun. He aimed it at the wolf and fired.

Toboe

*he leapt off the man for another victim. no one hurt a fellow wolf. he felt the bullet graze his shoulder. yelping he growled and leapt at the gun man. his canines already covered with crimson*

*Humans*

The man just had time to fire off another shot as Toboe leapt. This time the bullet struck him in the neck at and angle. By pure luck, it missed his jugular vein and just grazed his windpipe before it exited. This injury wouldn't kill him, but it would be painful to eat and drink, and harder to breath for a while. The man was thrown onto his back before he could fire a third shot.

Again, Toboe was pelted with kicks. His body would be sore and bruised later. One man was even bold enough to reach down and grab the wolf's scruff and try to yank him back.

Toboe

*he growled as the bullet struck him. he tried to latch on to the man but was pulled off by the other. he was not that heavy for a wolf his size either.*

Kiba

Kiba watched as he tried to get up, but with despair his injuries held him back and gravity was pulling him back down

*Gang*

After pulling Toboe off, the man jumped down on him and wrapped his arms tightly around the wolf's throat in a way that Toboe couldn't bite him. Soon, he would pass out from lack of oxygen. A second man ran over to help hold Toboe down.

Another man sprung at Kiba and held him down, although he couldn't get up anyways. A forth man ran off to go get their vehicle and some chains to tie the wolves up with.

Kiba

Kiba snarls as he is held down by the man. He tries to fend for himself by biting and snapping, spitting shooting out of his mouth as he does. He struggles and sometimes yelps and whimpers in pain as the man touches some of his injuries as he holds Kiba down...

toboe

*since he couldn't bite he used his blunt claws as his eyes shifted in fear they showed their whites. gurgling from the lack of oxygen he started to see spots.*

Kiba

The human returned without the chains but instead VERY VERY VERY HEAVY DUTY nylon/cotton/polyester ropes and started to tie Toboe up...

Toboe

*he growled and when they had gotten the rope around him he started to try and bite at it.*

Kiba and Humans

One of the humans tries to shut his trap and tries to tie it securely with a much smaller but just a super duty rope.

Toboe

*as they tried to tie his maw he felt their grip loosen on his neck and felt air rush into his lungs. he snapped at their hands dangerously. never get close to his maw.*

Kiba

The men on Kiba saw that their friend was in trouble so they released Kiba and grabbed hold of Toboe so hard and one of the BIGGEST man clamped onto his throat so hard that hopefully Toboe could not even breath at all...

Toboe

*the wolf yelped but it was more of a gurgle since the hand now clamped on his throat. why wasn't the other wolf fighting back why was he just standing there.*

Kiba

Kiba stared and stared on, hating the humans even more and more. But there was no way he could fight his injuries hurt even more but he was able to stand and to run a little. He was in search for Paradise and only the lunar flowers could lead him there...

Toboe

*he was looking for paradise too but he couldn't. not in this position. he started to roll to try and get away from the mans grip. but finally the dots covered his sight and he was finally out cold.*

Kiba and Humans

The humans laughed in joy and tied Toboe up securely and Kiba had fled. The men carried Toboe to a truck with a medium sized cage and put Toboe in it and drove him......

toboe

*he started to gurgle as air rushed into his lungs. feeling breath he stood up. the ropes were heavy but he could withstand it.*

Man

It was dark and the street lights were on, but still it was dark. The night had some stars but really none, the man who sat in the back of the truck filled a syringed full of tranquillizer and shot the weary Toboe in the rear....

Toboe

*he yelped in surprise but turned and growled. he felt his legs going numb but he snapped out at the man before falling now awake but he couldn't move.*

Man

The man stuck his hands into the cage and puts muzzle on Toboes maw as they drove to the lab....

Toboe

*he snarled through the muzzle still having a free willed mind*

Man

They drove in front of the LAB and carried his cage to the front door of the Laboratory.

Kiba

Kiba lingered no longer but he had found the safest place in the alleys were he could rest and heal up.
