And I [return]

[Nemisis]

She moved through the fields. The flowers, swaying in a slight breeze, stood out in stark contrast against her glowing white fur. And the red marks adorning her body rippled with her muscles as sh emoved. This place was familiar to her, like a memory of a dream. Something that she had once known and was now returning to. I have returned.

This place, this world, it was all horrid to her right now. Limping across the battlefield, her front leg still hurting her after two weeks of the injury first being inflicted. Her eyes gazed ahead, casting a golden glow across the field in her vision. Akki howled once and smiled. She now sensed another wolf nearby. But frankly, she was a bit shocked.

A wolf... she hadn't scented a wolf in ages. Ever since her battle with Darcia. Slwoly, she crawled down into the grass, and nestled her nose into her stomach. She wanted to cry, to let all her emotions out, but then, she fell into a state of simply half sleep.

She continued to walk. The breeze brought to her the scent of another. She stopped,waiting. The other did not come any closer, nor any further away. so she continued onward. She walked for a few moments, then found the other. It was lying in the grass, blood and infection all over it. The scent of death was almost overpowering. This one had killed, or was very close to the black gates. seh sat down and howled loudly. That should wake the other.

[glow=blue,2,300]Akki opened her eyes. She saw another, smaller than her, but another. She gave a sickly grin and attempted to stand, but when she tried, her wound hurt so badly, that she fell back down. Akki yelped in pain and licked the blackness surrouding the still bleeding gash on her leg. Akki then looked up and sighed.

"Hello wolf," she said. Akki gathered her emotions, her strength, and tried again to stand. Bearing the pain was a awful burden, but she managed to stand up this time. Akki shook herself and choked on the fresh air. Trembling, she felt her sickness sweep over her, but yet did not allow herself to throw up. [/glow]

[Nemisis]

She moved away from the sick wolf. The stench was overpowering. What are you doing here, traveler, and who has put you in such a state? It would be easier to just offer a healing, but she wasn't one to do that. You must take a circling route....sometimes.....alright, she just wanted to annoy the heck out of this other one. But the other one could not run. That gave a better chance for them to become allies.... The words, only so previously remembered, ran circles inside her head. She had known another one, a warrior like this other. The memory overswept her before she could stop it.

He was bleeding from many wounds, nothing deep, but there were so many of them....She wanted to help him, though it would be the death of her...there was so much life blood flowing from those wounds.... She would have to use all her strenth to heal him.

Go! You must reach the center! The center must not break! But it had. There was no stopping the chaos it had released...but she went anyways.

He would die. His life would be taken so that she could live. And as the stone caved in a round her, she thought one more time.....the center must not break. I promise it won't.

Akki listened to the other white wolf's words. She shook a bit, her heart was pounding, and her head felt like a spike had just been driven into the side of it. She felt suddenly dizzy, but did not dare fall and show another sign of weakness in these times. Her eyes went up and down the image of the young fae as her tail swayed in the soft breeze. What am I doing here, and what one did this to me, eh?

"I am here because I thought it would be a nice place to die if I did. The one who did this to me... his name is Darcia," She swallowed a wad of spit and mucus that went hard down her throat. She closed her eyes, then opened them to a squint. She quaked a bit on her uneasy thoughts and unstable legs.

The wolf had replied, the memory, gone with the words. She looked at the other one, wondering if she should heal her. Ah, whatever. she called upon her magic, feeling it swirl around her. She sent it to the other wolf, feeling ever sore muscle, every scrape. Slowly the healing began. Muscles were knit back together, flesh pulled over them. Blood was sent back on its original course. When she was done, the other looked so much better. But it still smelled bad. She waited, wondering what the other would do.

Akki suddenly felt whisks of wind around her fur. Sudden sharp pains, but not brutal, she felt all over her body. She watched as the but on her leg began to heal, the blackened fur and scabs turning into her original gleaming white pelt. Her eyes went wide for a moment, but then she caught on. The other wolf was healing her. Akki smiled. She had done this to herself, by going and attacking Darcia first. But now that didn't matter. She was better. There was no denying that happy factor.

When the winds vanished, she could feel hardly any pain. Her leg was only sore a bit. She smiled at the other wolf, and was going to offer thanks, but then decided to ask the wolf something instead. "So tell me wolf, what is your name, so that when I thank you, I can speak it?"

[/glow]

[Nemisis]

She looked at the other with a mildly concerned look on her face. Name...when was the last time she had heard her name? She spent a moment in thought, old memories drug up that shouldn't ahve. Another memory momentarily overtook her, but she shook it off. The few seconds she had been in the memory she remembered...she turned to the other wolf.

My name is Ami.

[XXSilentXOneXX]

[glow=blue,2,300]

"Ami eh? What a wonderful name, I think I may have heard it before. But first, thank you Ami, and my name is Akki,"

Akki grined, but not that stupid ear to ear grin, a kind grin. One that invited the other wolf to stay here with her. One that invited to have Ami by her side... to fight with her. Akki turned, and looked towards the distant mountains, where Lord Darcia resided. She then turned back to the young fae, and looked sternly at her.
