Both Shimo and Tsuki looked at Kira in sheer awe. They just kinda sat there and stared, collectively thinking What the--? Are all women like this?
They looked at each other and smiled. "Hehe, yeah, each of us has our own problems," Tsuki began, "but we help each other out with them. It's what we do."
Shimo nodded, "Then I will help too!" He trotted over to Kira and nudged her, "Are you ok?"
Tsuki smiled, He's almost as old as I am, but he's still just a kid... I don't get one thing, though: how could his memory just disappear? Oh well, "We'll be making new memories for him from here on." He whispered. He looked over to where Hito lay asleep, "New memories for us, too." In the back of his mind, he couldn't help wondering how Kage was doing, but he swore not to pry, plus he had a duty to his guests, so he couldn't go even if he wanted to.

Giga justs laughs at Wahya as he stares in the reflection. Wahya walks away with a grunt. One of these days Giga, I will find a way to get rid of you...
Haha! Good luck with that because I will be here forever, and if you do find a way to get rid of me I will still hunt your dreams.[/b]
Wahya points his ears foward in announce and plops on the ground with a sigh. He rolls his eyes to see everyone talking to one another.
Looks like almost everyone has someone.... Wahya lays his head on the ground and closes his eyes.

Shimo trotted over to Wahya and tilted his head, "Hey, so Tsuki said you were another alpha. Do you have a female like Hitoban? Do you have to to be an alpha? What's being an alpha like?" He sat there and smiled at Wahya, wagging his tail excitedly. He was so curious, and wanted so much to learn.
Meanwhile, Tsuki walked back to Hitoban and laid down next to her, wondering how Kage and Dawn were. Surely, she must've said something by now... He hoped it went well.

Wahya looks over to Shimo and lifts his head with a half smile, "Yeah I am another alpha like Tsuki. I do not have to be a alpha if choose to, but I chose to be one. Being a alpha is alot of responsibility and hard work, but it has its benefits I guess.... As for a female," Wahya plants his head on the ground with a sigh, "I don't have one...."

Shimo smiled up at Wahya, "Do you really need one? No matter what you do or don't have, you're still you, right? I bet you're a great alpha anyway..." he paused and stared at the ground, "though I really don't know anything, huh?" Shimo's left eye flashed red for a second, though he hadn't noticed, "Y'know, sometimes I feel like I shouldn't be a wolf, but I can't change that, so I have to be the best I can, regardless of what happens, right?"

Wahya's eye caught the glimpse of something flashing, but didn't know what it was. He sits up and looks at Shimo with a concerned look. "Don't say that you do not know anything because you might know more than you think you do. And never question yourself as a wolf, even in the roughest of time you have to be the best you can whether you know how to or not. You must always.... always push yourself to that limit."

Shimo looked into Wahya's eyes, and caught a glimpse of something he'd never known before. His eyes' color changed again for the space of a blink, so it was hardly noticeable. That flash of red was merely an outward signal of what had just happened, and Tsubasa was certain he was the only one who'd figured it out; Shimo had just learned something. It was in his mind to learn everything he could, that was why he could climb trees, talk to other creatures, and eat berries. Wolves are not designed for any f this, but Shimo's body simply adopted anything he saw; this time, he saw strength.
He could tell Wahya was tired, and somehow caught a glimpse of his burden, though he could not feel it like Tsuki, he was suddenly aware that something was troubling Wahya, like a ghost, or a bad dream that wouldn't go away. He smiled in admiration at Wahya, "You... you're strong! To fight like this. I don't know why, and I don't really get it, but it really... impressed me. Hmm..." Tsuki's words echoed in his mind, Each of us has our own problems, but we help each other out with them. It's what we do. He thought about it for a moment before the eye flash occurred and he gleaned information from it. "If there's ever anything I can do, let me know, ok?"
Tsubasa watched from a tree branch overlooking the scene. Shimo was learning quickly. So quickly, in fact, that it worried him... he was afraid that the wolf's mind would break under the strain it must be under. He knew that things take time to learn, and speeding up the process like this, however useful, could be dangerous. The hawk let his piercing eyes wander from the pup, who he knew would feel his gaze, but his thoughts were still on him.

Wahya looks back into Shimo's eyes with a half smile, "Well, I do not fight that hard really, but if you think so thanks. Don't worry, if I need help I will let you know, but that also goes out to you and everyone else. If you ever need help just tell one of us." Wahya starts to think about what Shimo said about Wahya's strength.
Can he.... no thats impossible, there is no way he saw who I have to deal with and what I do everyday of my life. Wahya chuckles to himself.

Dante rose to his feet, "It is time." he said in a dreary, worn out voice. He and Mar walked away from the bear, and sat beneath a tree. Shimo watched very carefully. Dante looked to Mar with a smile, "You know, my only regret in life is that I never taught my techniques to anyone else. I had thought to perhaps teach that Dawn girl, but it's too late for that now."
"Really?" Mar said in surprise, "Why her?"
Dante chuckled, "You know, I'm not certain, but she may have the necessary qualities. Perhaps she will gain this power on her own one day, but I only have strength left for this last act, so I'm putting everything I am into this one."
They stared at each other for a while, remembering the good times and bad times since they met. Then finally, Dante smiled and said, "Good bye, friend. It's funny, usually I say this when someone else leaves this world, now it's finally my turn.
Dante made three circles this time; one on Mar's chest and one on his own, the third encircled both of them on the ground. The three rings glowed brightly, and Dante's body began to simply disappear. Streaks of light poured into Mar's chest and flew around his body like a great gust of wind. He yelped in pain, and caught the other's attention. The last thing anyone saw of Dante in this world, was his body illuminate and vanish in a brilliant flash of light.
"Dante!" Tsuki cried. He rushed to the spot, but it was too late. "Dante..." Tsuki wept, he only felt his own sadness now. He'd never really lost someone of his own before.
Across the feild, Shimo's eyes flashed.

Wahya quickly looks over to the yelp and saw the scene, but he did not rush because he knew this day was coming. He walked over calmly to Tsuki and placed a paw on his shoulder, "Its alright Tsuki, there is always someones time to go.... and this time it was Dante's turn... I know that you and him were close, but thats what you must remember. You must remember him not because he is dead... no... you must remember him for who you knew him." Wahya looks to where Dante once stand then to Mar.
Wahya moves his paw off Tsuki and bows, "If you need something, let me know, but now is the time you must reflect on this..." Wahya thought about what Tsuki must be going threw, then a sudden pain strikes down Wahya's spine. Wahya tenses to the pain, he stands and walks a distance into the forest. As he goes he stops by a tree and plants his head into forcing as he bears his teeth. Tears start to roll off his cheeks, Go ahead.... think more about it.... fuel me...[/b]

Tsuki sat there, a strange sense of melancholia settling over him. He felt as if what he had seen did not just happen, even though he knew it to be true.
Shimo, on the other hand, had watched everything closely. His eyes caught every detail, even Wahya did not escape him. He wanted to help, to talk to them, but he was stuck. His body would not respond, it merely gathered information. It all gave Shimo a headache, as he just sat there, staring at everything at once. His eyes turned red, but this time, they did not change back. It was as if his brain was trying to absorb something it was completely incapable of understanding. This had never happened to him before, that he could remember, so he just kept sitting there, trying to understand. Dante had burst into light. It was pretty. He managed to turn his attention to Tsuki, "Why... why so sad?"
Tsuki just cried, but Mar walked over to Shimo, "He's dead, Shimo."
He couldn't understand this... what did dead mean? He looked at Mar with a puzzled look on his face, his eyes were wide open, and you could see the strain he was under.
Mar stared at the child for a moment, What's is he? He shook it off and answered the unspoken question, "We're sad because none of us will ever see him again in this world, and we miss him." Shimo blinked. "He's never coming back." A tear rolled down Mar's face, and Shimo's eyes followed it. The tear fell to the earth and splashed down, and something clicked in his mind. It all made sense now. His eyes and mind relaxed, and he fainted, uttering "I'm sorry for your loss." just before passing out.

Wahya closes his eyes and slams his head into the tree again, I will not let that memory get to me!
Why fight it, and why would you want to forget that memory. Would you want to forget about those poachers that killed the pack and your mother.[/b]
Wahya opens his eyes and they are now completely gold, No... I want to.... kill them... I WANT TO FIND THEM! Wahya starts to bear his teeth as he growls at the thought of the poachers that took his life away.

Tsuki's grief was pierced by Wahya's feelings. Even though he was farther off, the intensity cut through Tsuki like a sword. He doubled over and spit out blood; his body was in shock from the intense burst.
Mar reacted instantly, looking for the source of the attack, but none was found. He helped steady Tsuki as he fell to the ground.
In the other clearing, Kage felt a sharp blow. Tsuki!
He had moved to lay beside Dawn, she'd needed time to absorb his proposal, it seemed. But now he had to go. "I'll be back." He whispered in her ear before he left to help Tsuki.
Tsuki, what's wrong? He spoke in thought. No response. Tsuki was alive, but unconscious. He searched his memory for any information through the link they shared. There was intense hate, hate he'd seen before, but much stronger. Something had happened to Wahya. Kage burst into the clearing where the others were, took one look at Tsuki, then continued on to find Wahya. Hopefully, he wouldn't be too far away, otherwise, there would be nothing he could do.
Mar followed, unsure of anything else to do. "What is it?" He demanded.
"Not sure," Kage replied, "Tsuki felt something. Something strong and violent, completely out-of-the-blue. It was strong enough to damage him physically, the only thing I don't know for sure is the source and how much damage it did."
He looked back at his father, "We may not survive it."
Mar understood; by "we" he meant him and Tsuki. The only emotion that had ever hurt Tsuki physically was hate. "We have three options then: we must either subdue this feeling, distance it's source from your brother..." He fixed his gaze on the silhouette they were quickly approaching, "or kill it."

Wahya clinches his paws tightly as the memory runs through his mind at a fast rate. Moments of seeing flames and blood violently appear in Wahya's mind and continues to see the scene. Wahya's fur starts to fade into a light black and his ear's twitch to the sound of something coming in a fast pace.
He quickly turns to look to see silhouettes coming, his golden eyes gaze at the sight and grins wickedly.
Take it off.....[/b]
Wahya places his paw on his dream-weaver as his fur darkens by the second.

Kage was the first to recognize the wolf to be Wahya. They were approaching swiftly, and Kage could see what was happening. "Wahya! Don't do it!" He yelled.
The two stopped with enough space to react in case of an attack.
Kage barked at Wahya, "You can't let Giga go free! He'll destroy everything! You'd be putting yourself and everyone else in danger; we'll be forced to kill you!" He'd decided not to tell him about Tsuki; because Tsuki's powers had increased, Giga could probably kill Tsuki just by thinking about it now. He looked to Mar for support.
Mar nodded. We can't show any weakness; Wahya is now our enemy. But if this "Giga" is contained now, he could crush Tsuki if he got out. He looked back toward where Tsuki was. C'mon, son, hang in there.
