Again?! C'mon! Akuma's hurt(Open)

[Naruto]

Akuma stayed limp on Kraze's back,her paws dragging the ground and leaving shallow gouges in the ground. She groaned in pain as her body shifted slightly on his back,and cringed.

[Member]

"Hang in there, I'll get you back to camp," Kraze said to Akuma softly, walking to camp as fast as he could. If he ran, he'd only make the injuries worse. How could this have happened? This was the second time she was injured here. One when he did it, and the other with Duke, the crazy Omega. This didn't make sense. if she was just going to be hurt left and right, should she be here?

[Naruto]

Akuma tried to hold back yips of pain,but some broke through. "Sorry,"she grumbled,barely conscious.

SO SHORT

[Member]

"Sorry? What are you so sorry for?" Kraze asked her, turning his head to look back at her. So a couple sounds of pain came through, didn't she know that was alright? With injuries like hers, how could he get mad or irritated over it? At all?

[Naruto]

Akuma paused a moment. "Sorry for ever coming here."she rasped. She could have saved them all this trouble if she'd never come. Could have caused Kraze a few moments without having to save her from his Clanmates.

[Member]

Kraze didn't answer for a while. Sorry for ever coming here. Yes, problems started to happen when she came, but... not that bad, well, for her, and it was pretty stressful for him. The other wolves would probably blame her for all their misfortune. "Sorry for not chasing you out when I was supposed to. None of this wouldn't have ever happened then." Kraze gave a little chuckle as he padded on.

[Naruto]

Akuma gave a pained laugh and coughed. Then she twisted her head around to look at Kraze's face. "Why did you take me back to you're camp back then? I know we haven't had an exact friendship since then."

[Member]

"I already explained while we were in camp. You were injured, you would have died like that. Hm... now that I think of it, maybe not. But if I let you go, you would have been seen on the other clans territory, and we would have had a problem on our hands. Besides... you just wanted a place to stay." Kraze sighed and kept going onward. Maybe there was something else to that... maybe.

[Naruto]

Akuma sighed and relented with her questions. She felt a slight warmth spark in her fur. Kraze was handsome. And kind. And strong. She ignored the slight prickle in her heart and closed her eyes,trying to deny it.

[Member]

Kraze looked ahead again. What to say now? He didn't know... not at all. Some part of him wanted the silence to go on, but it wasn't because of his personality as he though, but something more. A part of him that wanted to go through the moment in silence and just... be there, near Akuma, like he liked to.

What was he saying!? This wolf was a nuisance! Always complaining about everything! So stubborn! Always havig something to keep her away from everyone, but... for some reason... he... possible liked it? Yes, liked her attitude and her distrust towards others, but why?

He had to get these thoughts away. "So Akuma," he started, "what was the first thing you thought about this place when you came?"

[Naruto]

"I guess I liked it."Akuma murmured,her eyes still closed. "Why do you ask?" Again,that warmth. Only this time it seemed to make her fur blaze. She liked this feeling though...but why? This wolf had hurt her. Had nearly killed her. Why did she even attempt to meet these feelings?

[Member]

"Just wondering, you seemed to really hate it when you were first here, but maybe that's after you met me." Kraze laughed again, one of those genuine laughs you get when you're having a really good time with someone. Or one of those laugh that you'd reserve... just for the family.

Just for the family!? What!? Last time he checked Akuma wasn't family, but she could be. What if she was his mate? And they had pups and lived happily ever after? A mom and a dad, and a daughter and a son. One of those cliche family mash ups.

Kraze snapped away from his thoughts to find his pelt hot, oh but why! Why! Why! Not too long ago she was saying how she didn't want to be here and how he was so annoying and now....? He was getting all... loving? No, he resented her, and she resented him. Did she? He hoped not.

Oh no! There it goes again! Right now Kraze wanted to run back to camp and hide in his sleeping spot, but he couldn't, not with Akuma on his back.

[Naruto]

Akuma laughed too. "Nah. I don't hate you. I guess you're one of the first wolves I've trusted for a long time."she admitted in a hoarse voice. She felt his body stiffen. "What's the matter?"she wondered,her eyes opening as she turned to look at him again.

[Member]

One of the first wolves she trusted. The statement made Kraze unintentionally stop in his tracks, his pelt getting hotter and hotter by the second. Don't let her see this! He started off quickly again. Had she noticed? Of course! He was standing there for moons!

He hesitated again, almost going into a stumble when Akuma asked him what the problem was. Was he that obvious! He forced himself to relaxed before looking up at Akuma with his most O.K sincere looks ever, but did it hold something else? "I'm great," he replied to her before looking back ahead, his smile going away into an almost nervous and dreading expression.

OOC: Poor Kraze, he's just a man, can you blame him?

[Wolvine]

OOC: Heh

Shiron watched the two wolves talking to each other. It took all his self control to not walk up to them and start making fun of them. Instead he sat and waited. This show was almost as good as fighting.

[Member]

OOC: *glares* YOU BUTT! I can't believe you. Shouldn't you be handling Duke? Man...

[Naruto]

"I take that as you're not great."Akuma laughed. "Did you hate me?"she added quickly,feeling her fur grow warmer every second. Does he feel the same way?

[Member]

Yeah... he wasn't actually great, and Akuma knew, she wasn't a fool. "No, I didn't hate you," Kraze replied to Akuma, "Just.... greatly dislike." Greatly dislike, but now.... that could be considered the opposite of how he felt. Akuma was a beautiful white wolf, even with the blood that turned her pelt red even made her look great. But he couldn't tell her that. He'd make a fool of himself.

[Naruto]

Akuma nodded. "A lot of wolves tend to "greatly dislike" me."she murmured. "Do you still "greatly dislike" me?" She knew she would probably get dumped on the ground in a few minutes if she didn't shut up but she had to know.

[Member]

Kraze's pelt prickled at Akuma's question and he had to use all his might to relax. "Now?" He said to her, pausing to stall for time. Did he really have to say this now? "Uh... no, I don't." Kraze finished quickly.

[Naruto]

"Good."she murmured softly,closing her eyes. "I'm going to sleep for a little while,'kay?" Within moments she was asleep,exhaustion and blood loss contributing to the fact that this conversation was starting to make her heart flutter wildly in her chest.

[Member]

"Okay," Kraze said as she fell asleep. He was glad for it. Now he had a little time for himself. Did he really... like her like that? Or was it just emotions from the shock? He didn't know, not at all. It was just... weird.

He started to walk a little faster, trying to get them to camp faster. He saw the area now, and he wanted to get there as fast as possible.

[Naruto]

"No! Father,Mother!"she screamed,fear pounding through her veins. Her eyes were full of horror as she watched her best friend brutally slaughter her parents,blood spattering over his brown fur and his eyes gleaming wildly. At her scream,he turned from their lifeless bodies towards her,and snickered. "Where's the big bad demon Akuma now?"he sneered,stepping closer. She stepped back,icy claws wrapping around her heart. Tatsuko lunged,and she closed her eyes,waiting for death. Instead,she heard a startled yelp and dared to open her eyes to slits. Konoga's brindle pelt was standing over Tatsuko,her throat slashed and her paws covered with blood. Tatsuko had a deep gash along his side from where Konoga's teeth had cut him in her attempt to distract him,and his eyes were glazed. "Tatsuko!"she howled,rushing to his side,even though she already knew. He was dead. Her eyes stung and she looked to Konoga,grateful. "Thank you,"she murmured tersely. Konoga only nodded,falling on her side. She padded over to the other wolf's side,but she was dead as well. Akuma felt her heart-beat increase rapidly,and her throat was choked with grief. She ran from the site of the murders,her flying paws carrying her far out,beyond the Pack of Wanderings' territory. "Goodbye."she whispered,looking up at the moon. "I am so sorry,"

Akuma jolted awake,terror chasing the warmth from her veins.

[Member]

"Akuma!?" Kraze said, startled by Akuma's sudden wake. He jerked in his fast waking and stumbled. He quickly tried to get his balance, but the rain made the street a little slippery. It took him a while, but he finally got his balance back. Had he injured Akuma further?

[Naruto]

Akuma's breathing was too fast,she realized,as she tried to calm down. "It's-It's nothing."she breathed. But she doubted he believed her. She'd never known that the dream could be so vivid....it was just like that day. "Just a dream....just a dream..."she repeated to herself over and over. But she couldn't shake the feeling of horror that made every hair on her pelt stand up.
