Chapter 6 - The Ninja

Kemi was in his wolf form running through the woods it had taken him 2 minutes to get to the top of the mountain but he didn't still have a clear line of sight. The rest of the mourmen were still on their way.It was pitch black but could see Clare a day and it wasn't because rays of moonlight missed the leaves, he wasn't a dog person but he appreciated their gifts. He continued to run in between the trees, jumping over fallen ones the initial mourmen had fallen in their return.

He stopped at the edge of the mountain and felt continued to feel the wind in his fur.

The last of the mourmen was less than a mile away and he saw no one following it. He stood there two more minutes just to be sure. As he was descending from the mountain he heard a twig snap, he had heard something similar earlier on but had dismissed it, thinking it's a mourman. He went back to check just in case and everything looked normally but as he was going he saw from the corner of his eye the shadow of a tree grow a branch. He decided to check it out because though he could see a mile away his sight wasn't perfect, he could not see if the color was blended. An example would be wearing a green dress lying in a green grass he will be only able to see if the person moved.

He walked to the shadow and tried to touch it with his nose as he go close a hand sprouted from the shadows grabbing him by the lower jaw and a second hand under the belly flipping him over, this happened in a flash. He was fast but he had no time to react.

With his back on the ground the hand squeezing his neck he kicked his hind legs to give him some kind of advantage. When it was not working he tried to scratch the hand with his fore legs but it was hard. Feeling hopeless he pretended to pass out then the hands let go.

The shadow figure walked into a ray of moonlight that illuminated the dark, it was a girl with black scales but her scales didn't just cover the upper part of her body but also the lower part but her face was bear. In an instant the scales on her body disappeared, it answered a question Kemi has been wondering about ever since he was grabbed.

"Why didn't I smell her? "

He could smell her now and see her clearly in the spotlight as nature intended, he watched her pick up a dress he had brushed off in his search. As she put on her dress Kemi thought

"she is defenseless, I can bite her in the neck and that's that."

So he charged at her but as he jumped she grabbed him by the neck squeezed till she brought him face to face. She looked at him as he scratched then hit him on the ground.

Her her deep blue dress was slashed and her blood had soiled her dress.

" Stupid dog, he ruined my dress", she said looking at the slashed dress.

She raised her head to see Shoto standing there, he looked angry.
