WITD Part 4: An Unexpected Visitor
#5 of Whispers In The Dark series
Part 4 of my story series~
I love to procrastinate apparently. x.x
Well, Tao was my old fursona before Takiro, and she's more arrogant, headstrong, ignorant, etc. than Takiro. :P
Will have a ref up for her soon~
Tao, Kane, and Takiro all ©: Me~
*** 2 days later ***
Kane kept his questions to himself after asking about her collar, and Takiro never mentioned it to him. Kane had to go to work the next day, worried about the little fox being alone for ten hours. But once he turned on the television for her, she took care of herself on her own and was fine when he got back.
Now that he was off from work, he was watching tv with Takiro watching as well on the floor. Things were quiet, until the front door burst open and a tall, sexy wolf stood in the doorway, her bright green fur contrasting against the sunset behind her. She wore a tight tank top that nearly made her D-cup breasts pop out of her shirt, along with tight jeans. Along the tip of her paws, her tail, ears, and muzzle was dipped in a dark blue color, her hair trailed down her back in long locks of green highlighted with blue. "Hey bae~ I'm home~" the she-wolf murred, walking in and stopping at the sight, her bright red eyes wide before she frowned irritably at the small silver fox on the floor.
Both Takiro and Kane had jumped when the door had opened, the little fox seeming to almost have a heart attack at the sound as her eyes darted from the tv to the door and at the she-wolf that stood there with a look of annoyance directly at Takiro. Kane jumped up from his seat, his eyes wide. "Tao... You're back?" He questioned confusingly, walking over to the green wolf.
Tao turned her eyes from the small fox on the floor to the wolf, a smile creeping on her face. "I came back as early as I could, I missed you so much~" she purred, stepping towards him and wrapping her arms around his neck to pull him closer to her, planting her lips hard onto his own. From the corner of Kane's wide eye, he saw Takiro get up and quickly dash out of the living room and into her room, the door slamming closed behind her.

'That was scary... And awkward...' Takiro thought in her head as she leaned against the door, sliding down the smooth wood to sit on the floor. The loud noise when the she-wolf barged in spooked her badly, but the sight of someone she did not know frightened her even more. And those eyes that glared at her, she had felt the hate and confusion coming from that gaze.
She had to get out of that room, she knew it was a bad situation she didn't want to get involved with. So she bolted for it. Things have been nice the past few days, but she had a deep feeling in her chest that her presence will be very bad.
Ryn sighed softly and leaned her head back against the door, hearing voices coming from the hall that was muffled by the door.

"You FOUND her?! And picked her up off of the streets?!" Tao exclaimed, louder than what Kane expected and he winced visibly. "She was scared and hurt, and she had nothing." He tried to explain to her, to try to calm the she-wolf, but that seemed to go the wrong way. "Nothing? So you brought her home 'naked'?!" She exclaimed once more, huffing as she stormed off into the kitchen.
He sighed and followed her. "She was hurt. Badly. And you know how the streets can be in the middle of the night. She could've been raped or killed if I left her there." He tried once more, stepping towards the wolf that had her back turned towards him, her arms crossed over her chest as she sulked. "Then why didn't you take her home then?" She questioned, glancing at him with suspicious eyes. "She doesn't have a home. She literally has nothing." He told her, frowning. Normal Tao's jealous behavior.
"Then how long is she staying here?" She asked, turning towards him to give him a hard stare. "I... Don't know. She's only been here for a few days though." He muttered quietly, stepping back from her glare. He knew he would have to deal with Tao sooner or later, but he didn't expect her to be back for another week.
Tao stared at him for a few more moments before growling a bit and turning away from him, walking off to his room to slam the door, causing him to flinch from the noise. He sighed heavily and shook his head. He never could understand women.
*** That Night ***
The worst thing than not being able to sleep, was the noise across the hall that wouldn't let Takiro sleep. She was curled up beneath the warm blankets, now with her pillow over her head to block out the loud, screaming moans that the she-wolf was making through the walls from Kane's room.
She had stayed in her room for the rest of the day, refusing to come out even when Kane asked her why. He brought her food while she comforted herself in her usual way: brushing her fluffy tail. There wasn't really much in the room to keep her busy, so she kept herself busy in her own way. Her wrists and thighs still hurt her while her body was still sore in some places, but it didn't bother her.
Right now, it was just hard to get to sleep with Tao's loud moaning coming through two layers of wall, or Takiro's ears were really sensitive to noise. She sighed heavily, pulling her head from beneath her pillow to slowly get up and crawl out of bed. She wore no clothes, feeling uncomfortable when she tried to sleep with them on. She walked towards the window and carefully opened it, not like anyone could hear it with the noise in the other room. She climbed through it with ease, landing on the soft ground. She was only going to be out for a little while, at least long enough for those two to end their fun for the night.
She continued walking along the soft grass, coming up to an overly-large oak tree with its branches nearly touching the ground below it. She looked up at the taller branches and smiled a bit, running up to the closest, lowest branch, jumping up onto it before letting her paws take hold of another above it, swiftly climbing up. She was rusty, but her skills in climbing trees like this never failed her. She climbed about halfway up, the leaves not so thick as the season was changing to autumn. She sat down on the branch she stood on, balancing herself as she looked up at the moon past the branches above her, he legs swaying in the air.
Nature had always called to her, ever since she learned to survive out in the wild all by herself. It was the only thing she had ever known. After Kane finding her and showing her these new things that she never even heard of, her perspective of the world had completely changed. It was all strange to her, and with the appearance of Tao and the noise coming from the other bedroom would mean she would probably stay holed up in her room to keep away from the she-wolf.
Takiro let out a soft sigh, pulling one leg up onto the branch to rest against her chest, resting her chin on her knee as she gazed out at the bright moon, hoping things could get better again for her.

"Hey Tashira, what'cha doing?" Tao mused as Takiro sat in front of the tv watching Pok?mon. The sound of Tao's voice caused the little fox to jump and quickly turn her eyes away from the screen to the she-wolf standing in the kitchen doorway. At the sight of Tao, Takiro swung her tail around to hug against her chest, always having that uneasy feeling being around Tao.
"Um... Just watching tv..." She mumbled quietly, not even going to try to correct her on not saying her name right. Kane was working, and it was just the two girls alone in the house, which Takiro had a bad feeling about.
"Well, I'm not gonna sit here all day to die of boredom." Tao sighed, walking down the hall to disappear for a few moments before coming out with a duffle bag slung around her shoulder. Takiro's ears perked up curiously before Tao took hold of the little fox's arm, pulling her up from the floor. "Hmm maybe you could use a little exercise anyways." Tao muttered, basically dragging the little fox out the door, stopping to lock the house behind them.
"Uhm, where are we going?" Takiro asked quietly, now only having no choice but to follow the she-wolf into her neon green and black mustang. Tao threw the duffle bag in the back seat while Takiro climbed in, the wolf sitting down in the driver's seat before closing the door and starting the car.
"You'll see." Was the only reply Takiro had gotten before they drove off towards town.
