was scared, he knew I didn't know what to think, nor what to do. My eyes were welled up with tears, and my head shook.

"Thats not it... you are a god, I am.. nothing.. You are helping me, and I have nothing to offer back." I said, ashamed of myself, and I tilted my head, knowing he probably thought I was lame at this moment, and I sighed.

Akani's eyes narrowed at me, and it made me cower. I saw his anger reflecting at me. "I am not a god, that you should be concerned in pleasing. Korikage, yeah, you might want to please her because she is picky. She's the reason we live here- cause she saw that we needed a break, and that more of our kind should be on Malixia." Akani said almost flatly, hiding his anger behind his deep voice. Akani hated that his anger could show easy.I perked my ears, and looked at the blood god. Blood slipped through his fur, like a snake through grass, easily slipping between threads.

"Yu-Yes sir.. I mean.. Akani.... " I said hesitantly, and smiled, almost weakly, and slowly sat down, feeling abit better, and my ears swiveled as I heard a howl in the distance. It made my flesh crawl, and I almost yelped. It was horrid! Wasn't a howl I heard- or a howl that I could recall. Akani shifted his attention to the outer den, and flattened his ears slowly.

"Pup, get sleep, I will be out there, patrolling, and looking for a good exit to find your pack.. or whatever you guys called it. " Akani said, before turning around, and strutting out of the den, My head tilting, and I obeyed. I was very obediant to my elders.

I woke up to Akani's voice, his voice shattered my dreams like glass falling to the ground, crumbling to a million pieces. My eyes snapped open, and my head lifted faster than I opened my eyes. "Akani?! whats the matter?!" I said, almost quickly, and panicing like. He picked me up, and ran out of the den, and I held on to his scruff, and winced as he ran as fast as he could, through the woods, and towards an empty plain.

"Quiet Young'un!" Akani ordered, as he entered the plain, me on his back, almost scared. Akani's brown paws lifted from the ground. A scream arouse from the forest we just left, and gunshots rung. I squeeked, and buried my head in his fur. Akani looked at me, and roared in pain as a bullet pierced his hackle, making him take off quickly, me still on his back, holding on for my life. Akani looked back at me, as a different scent arouse in the air. Blood. His blood didn't smell the same, though his normal blood that ran through his pelt normally didnt smell of anything, that I had noticed, but this blood... it reeked.

"Akani! you okay?!" I whispered in his ear, as I held my paws around his neck, enjoying the ride, but worried about him. My eyes widened as he dodged more incoming bullets, them being soundless as they came at us.

The bullets seemed to come closer, and Akani tried to run faster, knowing he was limping slightly, and winced, groaning in pain slightly. "Teio, listen to me, and if anybody gets you, you yell my name- or Korikage.. Kori will help you get out of this mess better then me myself.... I am still gonna get you out of this tangled mess.." He said, as he dodged another bullet, and yelped, as one pierced his flank, thankfully missing his organs, barely shaving his side.
