The End?

[wolfsraingurl]

A low chuckle came from deep inside his throat "So you finally caught on did you?" He stopped and looked her directly in the eye "I am not Thread. I am the demon who killed his pack." he began to lower his head and smile maliciously.

He flexed his muscles and started to charge. He hit her shoulder with his front claw, and purposely landed far from her. "Before I kill you, I want you to know the name of your defeater. I am Rickoushe. Satan's least important demon." He began to charge again.

(OOC: Not really going to kill her)

[kaiya]

Kaiya deep blue eyes slowly widened as she allowed the demon's words to sink in. This creature was not the wolf she had spoken to and he was certainly not planning on having a pleasant conversation. Her suspicions were confirmed as the wolf leapt towards her, striking her left shoulder and landing a few feet away. The young female yelped in pain as the demon's claws bit into her shoulder, tearing through the skin. Her snowy white fur was dyed a dark crimson as blood poured from her wound.

The demon before her spoke, his words menacing and cruel. "Before I kill you, I want you to know the name of your defeater. I am Rickoushe. Satan's least important demon." Kaiya listened to his words, remembering the name and preparing for his next attack. As she expected, he charged forward. He was going to do away with her, just as he did Thread's pack. Luckily, Kaiya was a wolf of dangerous speed.

Now that she was prepared, she could anticipate her attacks. She would not be able to fight him with her injured shoulder. She could however, go on the defensive; at least until Thread was able to regain control of his body. That was her plan anyway. Kaiya could only hope that the young male would be able to do so before it was too late. She waited until the perfect moment, her sharp eyes watched as his paws left the ground. Anticipating his movements, Kaiya waited until the opportune moment. She waited until he was merely inches away before leaping out of his path and dodging his attack.

She had managed to make a clean jump and land gracefully a few feet away. She winced slightly as the pain reached her shoulder. She was in pain. She was not going to be defeated however. Kaiya would fight as long as it took. She would survive. "I don't how long I can keep this up..." she thought to herself as she prepared herself for another attack. "Come on Thread... I know you're in there..."

[wolfsraingurl]

*Inside*
A deep menacing growl erupted from his chest. Thread tried to win over the powerful demon, but instead he was just being shot down. Rickoushe stood into his true form. The once small, blackish demon was now a towering, flame red, beast with horns and wings. "You'll never win!" He roared to Thread and charged. Thread shot out of the way and jumped up to grab the end of his wing. A miss. Thread now charged the demon with all his strength, only his hatred of the demon and his want fro revenge kept him going.

*Outside*
Rickoushe kept charging the female. His anger getting more and more fierce with every missed blow. His charges were getting slower and slower as the wolf body lost strength. "You're mine no-" A roar erupted from deep in his throat as Thread started to gain control. He hoped she would be able to hold him off for a few more minutes while he fought against the demon.

One last charge was directed toward her. Thread had most control now, and he could feel the cold snow hitting his feet again. A howl came again as he barely clipped her tail and he regained control. "I WIN!!!" he yelled. He skidded to a stop and stared Kaiya happily. He can't hurt her. For now. In his mind the demon was exhausted on the ground breathing heavily.

[kaiya]

Kaiya dodged and dodged, leaping away from the demon's blows. She noticed that it was getting easier to do so. Thread must have been winning! She leapt out of the way once more. Come on Thread, you can do this! she thought to herself. Just a little more! Suddenly, she felt a sharp pain behind her. It wasn't great, but still agitating. She yelped slightly as Thread shouted behind her "I WIN!"

Apparently, he had regained control. Kaiya smiled at him, happy that he had been able to regain control of himself. Unfortunately, he had managed to clip her sensitive tail. She sighed slightly, turning to see the damage. It wasn't very deep. In fact, it wasn't very bad at all. The white fur around the tip began to slowly turn red. The tip of her tail was bleeding. It stung a bit, but it wasn't that bad of a wound.

She lowered her tail, laying the tip into the snow. The cold would chill it and stop the bleeding. "Thread! You're back..." She said quietly. She was happy for him. The wolf couldn't hope to understand what he had been going through. She could only imagine. She knew that it had to have been very difficult for him. For that, she was very happy that he was able to overcome it. "I... knew that you could..." She said quietly. She gave him a gently smile.

[wolfsraingurl]

Thread trotted over to her and a toothy grin appeared. "Thank you for holding your own." He sat next to her and looked at her wounds. It pained him to see them, and that his body was the one who inflicted them. "Are you okay?" He looked at the deep gash on her side. He looked back into her eyes with a worried expression. "I mean about the gash."

His worried face was replaced by a freezing one. This is not the weather for a wolf who still has his summer coat. His paws were cold, and his nose was dry. His body started to shake from the cold wind that was winter.

(sry its short.. I have been really sick lately)

[kaiya]

Kaiya smiled at him. The wound in her side was not nearly as bad as it looked. Kaiya's fur was white as snow. Often times, that meant that any wounds she may have obtained appeared much more severe. After all, it only took moments for even the smallest trickles of blood to stain her white fur into crimson. It was a problem that she could do little about; simply minor inconvenience.

Kaiya smiled to him and nodded slowly. "I will be fine. Trust me... it's not nearly as bad as it seems." She rose to her feet and positioned herself. It was getting colder. From the looks of things, Thread's winter coat had yet to grow in. If the two of them didn't find shelter soon, he would freeze. thrusting her paws backwards, the female began to tear into the snow with her claws. She was digging; digging a burrow for the two of them to make shelter in.

Digging was an easy task for the young wolf. Each one of her two-inch claws were sharp as knives. They were hooked and curved slightly, designed for tearing into snow and ice. She moved as quickly as she could, hoping to make progress. She paused for a moment and gazed at Thread. She worried that he would transform again... he was simply too quiet. "Hey, don't worry about me. I'm fine! We need to build a burrow... something to keep us out of the cold until the storm blows over... You alright?"

Her digging slowed to a halt as she watched the male carefully. Something wasn't quite right with him. Something was deeply troubling him. Perhaps he was upset about the flesh wounds he had inflicted. Or was he simply trying his hardest to hold back the demon inside of him? What if he was simply freezing his tail off? She stared at him, worried for the wolf before her.

[wolfsraingurl]

He replied with a small nod, "I'm fine, just freezing my snout off." Even though that was true, he still couldn't get over the fact that he was the one who did that to her, but he heeded her words and started to forget about it.
"Good idea with the burrow" shivering while he said so. His open wounds weren't helping him confront the cold anymore than is summer coat did. No matter how much warm blood dripped down his side, he still couldn't be warm.

He stiffly walked over to Kaiya and continued digging where she had stopped. Large paws scooped the snow like shovels as he dug into the cool earth. When he reached a depth he liked, he started to carve out a small cave. The cave was big enough for both of use to wait out the storm.

Thread popped his head back up just as the winds began to howl angrily. "Come on! Hurry" His head disappeared in to the burrow. He laid down into a tight ball next to the left wall. I covered my scarred paws with my tail and left my head out to look around.

[kaiya]

Kaiya leapt into the large hole and looked around. It was small, but comfortable. She smiled, sweeping her tail from side to side. Her tail brushed a bit of snow around the entrance, making a thin layer across the top. It would seal it off and keep the wind from blowing in. This was very important, if the wind were to continue blowing, it would make the burrow cold on the inside. If that happened, the two of them would freeze. Kaiya knew that.

She crawled further in and pressed herself against the other corner. With a sigh, she flopped down onto the floor. She was rather tired. The battle with the demon and digging their burrow had taken it out of her. She was exhausted. "So... Are you alright?" She asked worriedly. Despite the fact that she was bleeding as well, she was still worried about Thread. He had done everything that he could to make sure he didn't murder her. She knew this, and for that, she bore him no grudge.

After a few moments, her cheeks turned a light pink for a moment. She realized the strangeness of the situation. She was lying down in a burrow about seven feet underground with another wolf; a male wolf. Now that she had thought about it, the idea made her a little bit nervous. She couldn't help but wonder if he had the same feeling that she did. "Ummm... this isn't... awkward for you or anything...is it?" She asked quietly. She placed her head on her paws and waited patiently, curiously about his reply.

[wolfsraingurl]

He watched as she entered the cave. As she sealed off the entrance, warmth was slowing coming back to him. He still had light shivers every now and then, but everything was alright now. Thread licked his nose in the cold air; he was gonna regret it. Oh well, you can't prevent everything.

When she finally lay down, seeing that she was so tired. He felt the same. All of his strength had been taken during the fight. He remembered every second of it. From being angry in the beginning, to so rudely digging in on her burrow -Ruining it in the process- to finally loosing control. It was all so frighting that he lost control that easily. That wasn't supposed to happen, but he was glad it did. If she wasn't there he could've killed -if there was anything to kill- in the Arctic.

"Yeah, I'm fine. These wounds have been there and bleeding since I became 2" He picked up his head and looked at her. Acting so worried, when shes the one who did most of it. By a total fluke she was there. By a total fluke he lost control that quickly. His head went back down onto the snow and he began to close his eyes.

"Ummm... this isn't... awkward for you or anything... is it?" he herd her ask. Honestly it didn't bother him one bit that she was there. Knowing that it was very close quarters and it was just us in here, he didn't feel anything weird in the least amount. He had to keep close quarters when guarding the females in his pack during winter. Even being around them was no problem, but he could see she felt a little strange. Being in suck a small place with another wolf would be okay for her if it was just another female, but she was in here with him; a guy.

"Not really to be honest." was all he said as he opened his eyes. He could feel his tail brush against her's. Now that you mention it, it was a little awkward. The females in his pack he knew since he was a pup. Kaiya on the other hand, he met during the fight. He didn't know anything about her, except she was fast.

[kaiya]

She gave him a sad smile. Apparently, this didn't bother him at all. She took a quiet, sharp intake of breath as she felt his tail brush against hers. She could feel a faint color of pink rush to her cheeks. They were so close... Kaiya had never been that close to a male outside of her pack before. She had grown up with them, known them her entire life. Of course, even those wolves made her feel on edge sometimes. She was a very shy wolf. It didn't help that her memories of those members were not the best. She remembered their fury; how they had furiously run her out of the pack.

Somewhere in her heart, Kaiya knew that Thread was not like them. She knew that he would not intentionally harm her. Still, she couldn't help but be weary, After all, there was no saying that he would not lose control once more. Of course, in this tiny space, that would be disastrous. Were he to lose control in this burrow, she would have no escape. He would attack her and she would die. She shuddered at the thought. A few drops of snow from above fell, landing on her open wound.

She shivered slightly, feeling the cold substance chill her wound. She was hoping that it would have closed by now; or at least started to. Unfortunately, that was not the case. If anything, her digging and other rapid movements had opened the wound, widening it further. Now, she was beginning to worry. It was unlike her to take such time to heal these wounds. Perhaps the wound was deeper than she had expected? That wasn't good. Not wanting to alert him to this, she decided to play it off as nothing. "So... ummm that's good I suppose. At least it... won't be awkward." She replied to his comment, smiling at him. Hopefully he wouldn't notice her pain.

[wolfsraingurl]

Thread looked away from her, with no emotion on his face, but he was grinning on the inside. His blue eyes shifted towards her wound. 'How can she not cringe at that? The wound looks so deep it seems i can see her bones. I wonder if shes trying to conceal the pain' "At least it... won't be awkward" is the only thing he heard. It pulled him quickly out of his thought process. "No I guess it won't" His eyes had a happy glimmer to them. But as quickly as they shined, they vanished. He lifted his head and looked at her. "Are you sure that doesn't bother you? I mean it looks very deep" Thread shifted his weight slightly so he was turned more in her direction. His scarred and bleeding paw moved closer to hers.

To her he must look like a stray mutt. He was covered in blood, and he was scarred. He lay his head back down and allowed the demon to reheat his body, but that thing was so wiped out that he could barely lift a finger.

[kaiya]

"I'm alright, truly." she said quietly, a small smile creeping onto her face. It was true, that she would be alright so long as she didn't get into any more high speed chases or battles. She certainly needed to rest for a moment though. With a sigh, the white wolf laid her head down on the ground. Her ears flattened against her head as her mouth opened in a yawn. Stretching out her body slightly, the femme yelped as her wound stretched. Using her tail, she flicked some snow from the wall onto the open wound. The cold would slow the blood flow help it heal faster. Violent shivers ran through her body as the ice landed on her side. Raising her head, the female cocked her head to the side, noticing that he was inching his paws closer. She gave a gentle smile

"So thread, what type of wolf are you anyway?" She asked curiously as she looked over his shaggy coat. Certainly he wasn't an arctic breed such as herself. That dark thin coat would never help him in the subzero temperatures of the arctic. Perhaps a forest wolf or mountain wolf... Blinking, Kaiya found herself staring off into thought. Perhaps he was a mixed breed, a mutt. How fascinating! Coming back to earth, she waited anxiously for his reply, her tail sweeping from side to side as her body shivered slightly from the snow.
