Rya blinked as she finished and nodded."y-yeah lets go"

As Victor walked, he looked over at Ray. "Is something troubleing you? You've been acting odd all morning"

Ray looked at her and shook her head."im fine"

"If there is something you want to tell me, feel free to do so. I promise not to tell anyone else"

Ray smiled."im sure"

Victor just shrugged and kept walking. "What a beautiful day it is today"

Ray nodded."yeah its wonderfull out"

Victor stopped, hearing a noise by the side of the path. He peered over into the bushes and found a little gray wolf pup, curled up and shivering.

Ray blinked also seeing the pup and looked around with caution.Somthing didnt seem right.

Victor scooped the pup into his arms. "Hey little guy, wahts your name?" "Ghost" the pup said nervously.

Ray looked at him then looked around."Victor...somthing doesnt seem right"

Victor put his right hand on the grib of his sword while cradleing Ghost in his left arm. "Ghost, were are your parents?" "They went away. Just ran and left me"

Ray went to the pup sniffing him and growled some looking towards the forest.

Victor removed his sword. "Ray, what is it?"

"take the pup to the village...now",she said lowly.

Victor took off with Ghost as fast as he could.

Ray watched them go and then went deep into the woods.

Hours past since Victor had brought Ghost back to the village.Rya had not yet returned.Hiroshi sat in his pup form ,at the entrence where Ray would enter,he whimpered every now and then.

Victor had enough waiting. "Hiroshi, watch Ghost, I'm going to look for Ray" Victor ran out into the woods.

Hiroshi sat next to Ghost and looked towards the woods.

When he got deeper into the woods there was blood everywhere in one big spot ,the a trail of blood heading down a path and ended at a ledge ,with a fast moving raging river at the bottom of it.

Victor was horrified. He called out Ray's name. "Ray! where are you? Ray!"

There was no reply,all there was ,was the sound of the river bellow.

Victor followed the river downstream. He had to find Ray. If anything had happend to her, he would never forgive himself.

As he followed the river,the water slowly became calmer.Turning into a stream. On the other side of the river,on a large rock there was more blood,that went towards the forest then simply stopped.

Victor followed the blood into the woods. He once again tried to call out Ray. "Ray! Please answer me! Ray!"

As he got deeper into the woods ,the ,feeling chaged it became much more darker. Suddenly a wolf came out of the bushes snareling at him.Its eye pure black.
