"No, my master needs time to heal" Okami layed down with her muzzle between her paws.

Kiara laid down beside her. "Are you ok? i know it must worry you," she said.

"Asura is my master. I worry about him all the time. But I don't show it in front of him"

"i see why i am sure he would be strict about stuff liek that. my mom said he tries to act tuff alot but like i was told there are limits to strength," she said.

Asura is tough. He'll pull through"

"Yeah i know he will. Vitani is the best," she said with a smile.

Asura relaxed as his wounds were healed.

"There you go asura. i have healed your wounds. now you only need to rest up ok," vitani said.

"Thank you. I would like to speak with Kita"

"hmm that makes you too. She has been wanting to see you for ever," she said leavign and kita came in. "You ok now?" kita asked.

"I'll be fine. But the shadow wolves are stronger than ever"

"We must find some way to end this feud. We are down so many fighters. i don't know if we can continued this," she sighed.

"Perhaps the pups will be the one's to bring peace"

"Hopefully. i just wish the war would end already," she said.

(we should skip to when they're older. i plan to bring the shadow wolf back)

(What about that shadow pup who has a crush on Okami?)

thats who i plan to bring back. they cant very well do anything as pups)

(K)

Years went by. Okami ran through the fields, building up her strentgh and endurance.

Jake watched form the shadows. HE had secretly watched Okami grow up since they had that encounter. There was something special about her and he knew it.

Kiara sat in the healing den tending to the wounded. Since Vitani had died, she had taken over as healer.

Okami was exhausted. She stopped at the lake to get a drink of water.

Jake quietly came out from the shadows and tackled her.

Okami looked up at Jake. "You!" she pushed him off and summoned a water shield. "What do you want?"

"aww come on no need to fight. i ain't gonna hurt you sweet thing," she said with a smirk.

"Stay back, I'm warning you!" The water began to swirl.

He sighed and swipped his paw through the water, making it stop. "Fine i try nic it don't work then i guess i will use force,"he said. He tackled her biting the pressure point in her neck.

Okami went numb. She looke Jake in the eyes. "Do what you want, but I will never give you the satisfaction!"
