Part 2

THe horizon darkens as a horrible plot begins to unfold for Matsuko's clan.

 

 

THe pack has found a forest that wasn't totally covered in ice in snow. so finding dens and food wasn't much of a problem. 

They all agreed to stop there to rest from walking all that time.

 

 

Matsuko wished she'd never met Kaji now.

Sooo many thoughts and emotions filled her head every day they met.

One day she talked to Shaston about him.

Masuko was pacing back and forth while she was sitting on a rock hearing her rant.

"Why do I feel so confused? I can't stand him! He's so annoying!! But.... But he's so....."

"Charming?" she said.

"Its not just that! There was something about him that freezes me on the spot. And the way he kissed.."

"HE KISSED YOU?! NO WAY!!" she shouted.

"Oh no! I was thinking out loud..." she thought that time. 

She blushed.

"Wow! I thought it would 've took him longer to come up to you and do that." she said.

"Don't tell! Not Venice or Galent. Anybody!" Matsuko shouted.

"Ok! Its nothing to be embarassed about." she said.

"Yes it is! Oh! Does he even know what he's doing to me.....?"

"Its crazey isn't it? Everytime he comes to you your insides flip out. He makes your bones turned to water right?" Shaston said smiling.

"How'd you....?"

Did she read her mind?

"I feel the same way about....uh...?" she stopped.

"Galent right? Don't think I don't see how you went head over heels over my brother." Masuko said.

Now it was her turn to blush.

"Galent...."she said alittle starstrucked.

"Oh boy...She has it worse than me.." Matsuko thought.

 

Then suddenly Talon was runing towards them. He looked injured.

"Talon? What's going-"

"Its Kumiko! She's been killed!! We were attacked but she didn't-" he said.

Both were too stunned to speak. They got up and ran back to the pack.

 

All of them were mourning the death of their leader.

She quickly spotted out Galent on the side.

"Galent! What happened?!" Said Matsuko.

He was too speechless to say anything.

"Someone is a traitor." said Talon.

"What?" she asid.

"A member of this clan killed her. Caught her off guard." he said.

"Who will take her place then?" asked Shaston

"Who else?" said Talon.

All three looked at Talon with horror!

"Oh no! Not....!"

"ME!" Akchrome said with pride.

She pushed Galent and Matsuko out of her way.

"And I want all of you to meet  by  the river to find out who killed my mother." she said walking away.

"Who would do such a thing?" said Galent.

"I wonder where Kaji is?" Matsuko thought.

"Come on Mat! We have to go!" said Talon.

She shook off her thoughts and followed them.

 

 

That night all of the pack gathered at the river.

"All my members hear me now!!" Ackrome shuted.

"Whatever." thought Matsuko.

"We had a terrible lost the other night. The murderer is still among all of us!  When we find the traitor he or she WILL be brought to justice!!!!" she howled.

The pack howled altogether. 

 

 

Then Kaji appeared to the pack.

"My head.....Hey what's going on everybody?" he asked.

"BLOOD!! HIS PAWS ARE COVERED IN BLOODD!!!!!!" someone shouted.

"Blood?" he said then he looked down and his paws were soaked in blood!!

"What? How did this happen?!" he looked shooked to see it.

"Traitor!! Kaji is the traitor get him!!" shouted Ackrome.

"Wait!!! I didn't do it I........!"

Kaji backed up but the whole pack surrounded him.

"Wait!!" Matsuko pushed through the crowd.

"He couldn't have done this!!!!!! Its impossable!!" She tried to defend him but she knew it was useless.

"He will be killed on the next sunset!!! An eye for an eye my friend. Take him away!"  Achrome said coldly. 

He struggled but on of the warriors hit him on the head with his paw. 

"No! KAJI!!" Matsuko tried to follow him but Talon blocked her.

"Get back Mat. He's a traitor. Stay away from him or he'll kill you too. Same to you Galent." said Talon

Galent nodded but Matsuko was determined to find the truth. She saw the blood herself but she felt that somethings not right. Kaji wasn't a killer! Or is he? She really didn't get to know him very well.

"But I have to know the truth!  I'll sneak to see him in the morning. Ackrome and the rest will be asleep." she thought as she walked with Galent and Talon.

"I'm going to hunt in the morning. The rabbits don't  catch themselves. I want you two to stay togethergot it?" he said

They both nodded.

Talon went to sleep but Galent ever left his gaze off his sister. He knew she'll be up to something so he watched her as she slept. 

She didn't worry. He'll be knock out by the time she leaves.  She'll have a good night sleep unlike her brother......

 

 

The sky was bright but it wasn't dawn just yet. It was the perfect timing to sneak off.

Matsuko woke up quietly. She saw Her brother out cold like she thought he would be.

She went to the abandend ditch were they kept Kaij in.

She passed the guards and saw Kaji sleeping.

"Some guards....sleeping on the job." she thought as she saw the wolves sleep. But unknown to her they were not sleeping but one was dead! and the other was out cold.

"Kaji....Kaji....!"she whispered.

His ears perked up.

"Who's there!" he growled.

"Shhhh. Its me Matsuko!" she tried to get him to be quiet.

"Oh. Mat you have to believe me I didn't do it!" he said to her.

"Shh. Calm down Kaji now just-"

"Calm down?! I was framed! What would you do if you were about to be killed for something you didn't do?!"  

She couldn't blame him for being angry. He said he wouldn't join another pack ever but he did to find her.

Know his reward is get rejected and accused of a crime he didn't commit. She had to know if he did or not!

"Kaji tell me what happened?" she asked.

He sighed.

"I was watching Venice like before until I saw that Kumiko wanted to talk to me. She wanted my help. She said that one of her guards was killed and she knew who did it . But before she told me someone jumped us and knocked me out. When I came to, Kumiko was gone and a trail of blood was all I found. When I followed it it lead me to the pack.That's when I saw the blood on my paws. You know the rest." he said.

"Oh Kaji." she sighed.

"I was knocked out but I did not kill her I swear!" he said.

She looked in his eyes. Even though the evidence was heavey on him she believed him.

"I believe you Kaji but if that wasn't Kumiko's blood then who's is it?" she asked.

"When I smelled it, it was like a rodent. I don't know. A mole? Or rabbit mabey?" 

 

 

 

Galent woke up to find his sister gone!

"MAT!" he shouted.

He looked around for her  but he saw Shaston sleeping. He didn't want to wake her but needed to find his siter.

"Shaston! He have you seen Matsuko?" he asked her.

She yawned and said. "Noooope.....I thought she was with you." she said.

"Well she better not be with that killer!" he growled.

"Look I know he's new but I'm not sure he did it. He's doesn't look like the kind of wolf who would do that." she said.

"You saw the blood he's guilty!" he growled.

"But why would he be shocked to see the blood if he did do it?"she said.

"Talon said he saw it with his own eyes!" Galent said.

"But I thought he was with us when Kaji came back how could he.....?" 

 Then suddenly Galent ran from her with the speed of light!

"Galent wait!" she said.

"No! Get back up and lead them to the ditch hurry!!" he shouted.

 

 

 

"Rabbit? The only one who hunts rabbits for the pack is-" 

 "Matsuko! Look out!!!!!!" Kaji shouted but Matsuko felt a sharp blow to the face.

She fell of and slided off int the ditch.

"Matsuko!" he ran to her.

The wolf that hit her jumped into the ditch.

"Oh dear...... always the slow one huh Matsuko? At least Galent would have gotten it alot quicker. He was always my favorite one."

"Talon! You killed Kumiko!!" said Matsuko.

"WelI can't take all the credit. If you didn't charm your way to Kaji's heart I never would have found anyone to get the blame. You may be slow but sometimes you can be useful." he said with a colder smile than winter.

"But why? Why would you do this? You were like our second father!" Matsuko cried.

"Well since you're about to die I guess it does no harm to tell you.Your mother." he said.

"Mother?" they both said.

"Yes. In truth I am your father's best friend until he met your mother. She was the most beutiful wolf I had ever seen!She was a pure vampire like myself. I loved her but she desided to go with your father.

I was bitter about it soo the day you went to the mountain I was the one who pushed the rocks. I did get my revenge but lost the love of my life.So I took both of you in.but you to reminded me toomuch of your parents.

One of the wolves that helped me kill your father was staring oo have second thoufht so I eleminated him.
