A Wolf's Cry

Chapter Three - Haze

Kagome was freezing. Ever inch of her body was shivering uncontrollably.

When she had finally gotten out of that damn city she found out that it was snowing rather than being dry like the city, and Kagome was still in her tank top and shorts. She thought about turning back and getting a jacket but remembered that old man with the wolf would be there to kill her so she decided to press on into the wilderness.

The warm red liquid was still dripping down her arm and was leaving a trail of blood behind her. The bullet had made a gash in her arm and now it hurt like a bitch and it wouldn't stop bleeding Kagome had tried to use her miko powers but sadly found out that she was too weak to use them.

She had been so focused on getting out of the city she never thought once about even healing herself before she left. It had taken all of her strength to leave that place and she now regretted not healing herself before she left.

Kagome slowly made her way through the now rapid falling snow. She couldn't barley even see right in front of her and she had to keep her head down most of the time so she knew where she was stepping.

The snow was up to her knees and she had a hard time walking through the snow, sometimes falling because of how deep it was.

How long had it been snowing out here? It never snowed in the city, but then again that shield was always around it so it was probably snowing for a long time out here.

Kagome stopped for a minute to catch her breath. She was getting very weak now making it hard for her to breathe. And now she was becoming dizzy. Clutching her wound, Kagome let herself fall to the ground and into the snow as she began gasping for air.

The wound on her arm had grown larger from it not being treated properly and blood was flowing freely out of it now. Her eyes were becoming blurry and her mind was becoming dizzy.

It seemed like she had walked for days but she couldn't even tell when the sun rose or fell with how much snow was falling down now.

Kagome slowly turned her head to look in back of her. It looked like she had been walking over a long bridge that seemed to go on for forever. Kagome shook her head, trying to clear her eyes of the haze that was filling them.

`I have to get up…I have to keep going. I'll do it for mamma…and Sota.'

Hope and perseverance filled Kagome as she stood up and began to walk again, struggling to keep her alive. The snow was pouring out of the sky like there was no tomorrow and it didn't help with Kagome's eyesight at all.

`If only I was stronger' Kagome thought silently to herself as she kept walking through the snow. Taking a step in front of her, Kagome's foot sank extremely deep in the snow, causing her to fall again. It must have been a hole Kagome cursed as she wordlessly struggled to pick herself up and began walking again.

It had been at least an hour when Kagome finally reached a, what looked to be, small town. She was becoming dizzy again and Kagome wasn't sure about the outcome of what would happen if she fell again.

She winced as another sting of pain shot through her body causing her to stumble forward. She didn't know where she was now, but all she knew was that she was walking in a graveyard. There were tombstones everywhere and she wondered if there had been a war here.

She stood still for a few moments shivering before she fell to the ground lifelessly. Her whole body was numb and Kagome couldn't feel anything. She began coughing uncontrollably and Kagome ended up struggling to breathe again when the coughing finally ceased.

`The bullet must have had poison in it.'

That was Kagome's last thought before blackness engulfed her, the red image of her blood slowly covering the pure white snow around her would be forever imprinted on the back of her eyelids.

"I'll show you the way to get there," the old man told them; slowly standing up from the beating he had just received from his other pack members. The old man led the group of four to the far end of the town and into the graveyard.

"I smell blood," said Kiba, walking only a few steps into the graveyard. The others lifted their noses and took a whiff of the air around them and agreed. The five of them followed the scent until they saw someone lying still as stone on the ground. The group kneeled down, all except one, and examined the person on the ground. One of the group members turned the person over so the person was laying on it's back.

"It's a woman" Hige spoke up, surprise evident on his face.
