#4 of Dogman


Well I'm sure you all are wondering where this is going and I just formed the entire plot from beginning to end in my head, it's gonna get even better as it goes, so it's just a matter of putting it down on paper. Enjoy!

I turn around; my heart skips a beat ‘no this can't be happening. I turn back to Tairin for answers and he's already next to me. I jump back a little surprised to see him so close without hearing him.

He looks at me very coldly "there's a rule here...if one of your people gets to close...they die."

My mouth drops in horror ‘no they can't kill them...' "no you can't because if you do our government will never except you as "good people," please go back into your wolf forms and this will all be okay." I look at him pleadingly "I promise."

He looks at me with concern, like he's split in 2 by the decision he's got to make. After thinking it over he nods his head in agreement "okay, but you're gonna have to make this look like we don't live here and you CAN'T let them in the cave."

I nod in agreement "okay, don't worry I know something that will work just turn into wolves and listen close until I tell you to do something."

He thinks about that until he's interrupted.

Off in the distance "hey there's different...oh my god come here and look at these tracks I've never seen anything like them before."

Tairin nods in acceptance "okay, but I don't like this, there's no wind. I can't tell how many of them there are...I can't even tell there out there." Tairin turns around, looks at all the wolves, and they all nod. They all change into their wolf forms simultaneously, come close to me just like last time, and sit beside me.

I look toward the woods and shout "I thought I told you guys to get out of here."

A bunch of guys in camo hunting gear carrying guns flood out of the woods stopping at the edge of the clearing. The leader smiles "well well well...what do we have here, the same fucking tree hugger from before...I got a question for ya...what are all those odd wolf like foot prints around the area? I've noticed that they have a human quality to them." He narrows his eyes at me challenging me to answer him.

I play stupid and raise my brows in surprise "werewolves don't exist you fool now go home." I point in the opposite direction.

He smiles wickedly at me "actually I don't think you own this land and I'm very curious to see what's in that cave over there, so that's where I'm going." They start walking over to the cave from the edge of the forest.

‘I hope this works; it's a little out of date, but yet true.' "Okay look I didn't want to tell you this, but I live with the wolves and we live off the land, so if you try to pass me they will attack."

The wolves start to growl at them in reassurance of my clams.

One of the men steps forward toward the leader. "Sir lets go, we shouldn't be confronting a homeless guy, I mean he's probably lost enough being away from humanity and all..."

I interrupt "sir...wait a dam minute you're from the government aren't you."

The leader turns his head from the other guy to me and says in a mocking tone "dam, Rick you just had to fuck this up." He looks directly at me "yes, we are from the government and we were sent by the president himself to get rid of these horrible creatures once and for all."

Shock plasters itself all over my face "s...so how do you plan on doing that with a 22."

*Chuckles* "oh, these...there not 22's there a special rifle designed to look like a 22 as disguise, these are actually dart guns."

Confused I ask "to capture them?"

*Chuckle* "oh no...we've already done that and learned all we needed to know about them, their stronger, faster, cunning, and too unpredictable to be trusted, so we have to kill them all."

"What did you do with the one you captured?"

"Oh we did our testing, let him go, and tried to follow him, but he was too fast and cunning. He outsmarted us and got away. We tried to follow him back to his den but he escaped, the only thing we know is that he was heading in this direction."

"I see, so ho..."

1 dogman runs out of the woods, panting from the running to hard and unaware of the imminent danger he is in.

The soldiers turn around and are shaken by what they see. One soldier shouts "holy shit that's one of them!" Another soldier says "my god what a disgusting creature." The leader yells "FIRE AT WILL MEN."

‘No, that's the one that was getting my cell out of my car' "no don't shoot, please they won't hurt you, I'm living proof of it please don't shoot."

The dogman is shocked by all the humans in the area and is too confused to do anything at the moment. The soldiers raise their guns, fire, and hit the dogman. While this is happening the other dogmen race by me in there grotesque, huge dogman forms, and charge the soldiers with their ferocious battle cries. The soldiers turn around stunned by the surprise attack, but it's too late. Tairin is the first and claws the leader in the arm tearing into his skin forcing him to drop his gun while he is screaming in pain from the brutal and sudden attack then tears his arm off and tosses it to the side, after which he claws away at his chest creating a X and after 30 seconds of that Tairin hits him in the chest with so much force that his ribs crack and break from the force as he flies 20 feet in the air and lands on the ground motionless. Rhine is the next and nocks the gun out of the soldiers hand then slashes the soldier the leader called Rick with his claws right across his face, Rick is on his knees clenching his face with both hands screaming profusely until Rhine hit's Rick on the far left of his face so hard that his face sits at a 90 degree angle on his shoulders instead of 180 degrees before Rick finally descends to the ground completely still. The other 2 claw and hit their targets with less brutal attacks, but none the less fatal.

I stand there watching all this and can't believe what I'm seeing ‘there...there just k...killing them, oh my god now what am I going to do, there all dyeing and there's nothing I can do. I don't know what to do, some part of me is telling me to stop them from committing these atrocities, but the other part of me is saying that their getting what they deserve, they shot the other dogman and I can't believe I care about him, but some part of me does, it's saying what my people did was wrong. I don't know what to do or think I'm so confused.

The final scream is shouted as the last soldier falls to the ground motionless. Tairin goes over to the other dogman, drops to the ground, shacks, and cries while hugging and embracing his fallen comrade. He does this for several minutes as his friend slowly and painfully convulses then he goes still and limp in Tairins arms, Tairin mournfully howls, puts his body down gently, and after looking at his pack mate he looks at me. Clarity forms all over his face as though he realizes that this has affected me as well. He gets up, changes into his normal form, runs over to me, and shacks me rapidly. "Vien, Vien, I...I'm sorry, but I had to do that, I had..." He trails off crying again.

I meekly manage while keeping my eyes locked on the dogman that just died "I...I know, it's ok, but what are we gonna do now?"

Surprised he stutters in a raspy voice "we...well w...we have to go to the place down south until the situation here cools down."

"Then we have to move fast, get my keys were taking my car."

He looks at me like I've lost my mind "but..."

I interrupt "I know, but it's faster and we don't have to risk running into any ambushes or traps along the way, no one knows I'm gone yet, so we need to go now."

With teary eyes "last time I trusted you got one of mine killed..."

I interrupt again "the only reason why this ended so badly was because he showed up without checking to make sure everything was all clear, if he had, I'm sure this could all have been avoided, now will you guys come on before the army shows up?"

He nods his head while looking away to check the area then looks at me seriously and says "why do you want us to take your car?"

"Because it allows us to get through all the wooded areas where humans will check, so it would be to our advantage to use my car and besides we can put 1 in front and the rest in back. So I'm guessing that you will be in the front and the others will be in the back."

With no emotion "yeah, you and the others go to the car I'll meet up with you after I take care of this poor soul."

I look down at the body of the dead dogman "Ok, but don't be too long or you will get caught."

"I won't now go." He points in the general direction of my car.

The others come over by me ‘ok, now there under my control...fuck' "let's go" then I turn around and walk into the woods with the others following me, occasionally I will look back and I can see Tairin crying will holding onto his fallen pack mate. I notice that the others have watery eyes and are looking away from me, as though if they can't see me that they will not have to feel the pain that whelms in their bodies. I decide to break the ice...if only a little. "My car is about a 3 hour run so let's get going."

The others nod.

We start to run at a slow pace and after 15 minutes Rhine says "we can go faster."

With no verbal response I kick it up a few gears and start to pick up my pace. Within 2 hours I can hear them panting and I am proud that I can still keep going, until hungry sets in and my stomach starts to hurt. I slow down and Rhine runs up beside me obviously concerned. I beat him to the punch "I'm okay Rhine just hungry."

Rhine slows down more "ok" and goes back a little.

Sure enough 1 hour later we arrive at the parking lot where my car is sitting, just waiting to be driven. We all stop right next to it. Rhine gets close and starts to rub the surface "so smooth and so big, is this new?"

*Chuckle* "no it's 10 years old, but when this car came off the assembly line in 1999 it was ahead of its time. I remember my dad went from the ford dealership where he worked to see it and even give it a test drive. He came home that day and said "son I just drove the most advanced car in my life." I never understood what he meant until I actually got to drive my mom's 1999 LHS, it was so smooth to drive and since it has the same engine as a Plymouth Prowler; it was fast for a big heavy luxury car."

Puzzled Rhine asks "how come you don't have a new one from this year?"

*Chuckle* "because they discontinued the LHS in 2001, I don't think it was even replaced with anything and besides new cars are very expensive especially since I'm a college student."

Even more confused "Why would they do that?"

*Sigh* "the steering rods were the biggest problem because they were defective to begin with."

A puzzled look forms on Rhines face again "What?"

"It's like putting a part on something that looks close enough to fit and work but doesn't."

Rhine is still confused "what's the worst that could happen?"

"Your steering eventually goes out at about 60,000 miles and then you have this massive car with no steering going down the road and sooner or later this car is gonna hit something and hurt or kill someone."

Realization sets in. "Oh...wait why would they do that and why would you buy one?"

I roll my eyes "because Chrysler is cheap and didn't want to spend too much, so they just put a band-aid over this massive problem. They didn't really care, so they just discontinued the model and that pissed me off that they were that incompetent to stop making their best car at the time. My dad made sure that this car wouldn't have any problems like that so that's why I got it and this car was given to me as a graduation present because my mom was getting a Chrysler 300."

"I see, well if our people do stop this war then I want to learn more about these moving machines of yours, there just so fascinating."

*Chuckle* "well that would be interesting to see a werewolf working on a car."

With a challenging stair "you think I can't do it?"

I put my hands up "I didn't mean it like that, I just mean that...well...it just doesn't fit, but I think that's just because you're not human. That doesn't mean you can't do it though."

Rhine narrows his eyes "that's another problem with your people, you discriminate against others so much it's pathetic. This is just one reason why I don't think your plan will work."

*Sigh* "look I'm sure there's a group of people out there that will help you. Like PETA would help you even though I fucking hate that organization; their goals are to save...er try to make animals and people equal. I don't like their radical approaches to any of their goals and in my opinion animals don't understand freedom and if we were to free all animals they would either all die because they're so used to us feeding them that it's practically instinct, or if they do survive then they will go back to how they were before, it would take 3 to 4 generations to pull it off, but that's very unlikely anyway. Unfortunately they might be the only people that will help us and make sure there is a place in this world for your people."

In a curious tone "So...what do you think your people's response will be?"

"I don't know because I never thought of anything like this before."

He smirks "I bet having sex with us will be different."

I raise a brow "you mean like porn because I have no clue what kind of sick pervert gets off on werewolves."

*Chuckle* "oh there're out there."

Confused I ask "what do you me "they're out there" are you saying that humans like your race sexually?"

*Chuckle* "well what do you think we do when we get bored, ha we go out, scope the trails for hot guys and when we find them we rape them. Some come back for more and some don't come back at all."

My mouth drops in horror "and who the fuck gave you the right to RAPE anyone?"

He looks confused "right, ha are you that stupid everything your people are given is a privilege not a right, in fact that word doesn't really have any meaning because it isn't possible."

I challenge Rhine "then prove it!"

Rhine shacks his head "ok" he gives a weird look to the others and they nod.

I narrow my eyes in more confusion.

"I'm gonna rape you."

"You can't do that you have no right."

Rhine smirks evilly and cocks his head "oh yeah" he walks over till he is right in front of me, grabs my waist, pulls my sweaty body up against his, and touches his nose to mine as I struggle, but to no use "if I had no right then something would have stopped me, but even then that something might fail in its attempt and you would be all mine, so in actuality what you are given is a privilege...not a right because the way your people perceive rights are as unbreakable promises and nothing can do that."

Starting to understand "then why don't they say that?"

Rhine narrows his eyes "Because it makes countries feel more powerful if they say you have rights when even they know that all of the rights they put in place will be broken eventually."

"Ok, so what I have is a privilege."

"No you have privileges, not just one, but many; understand?"

I nod "yes, but Tairin would kill you."

Rhine lets me go and brushes himself off "True, so how are you going to go about telling your people?"

I shrug "I...I don't know I guess I could try to talk to the president."

Rhine whines in amusement "those soldiers just said they were sent by the president, how are you gonna do that when the president is the one behind the recent attacks."

‘He's got a point what am I gonna do, who could I go to that would help me, wait...' "the vice president."

"Isn't the vice president picked by the president?"

"Look I know that, but the vice president has been pushing for more environmental approaches and is a lot more open minded about things then the president."

Rhine cocks his head in confusion "I don't get why your president would chose a man that doesn't seem to agree with his views."

I nod "well in my opinion they agreed to support each other in any decision they made."

He cocks his head again "why would they do that?"

I shrug "the vice president was a liberal or says he was and has a lot of power with the Democratic Party and the president is the president of the Republican Party which is the 2 most powerful political parties in the US. By pulling strings for one another they can get anything they want done."

"If they can do that then why don't they fix your country?"

*Chuckle* "to keep the rich rich and the poor poor. They say that the trickle down system will work, but it's a bunch of bullshit. They say if they take care of the rich that the rich will buy enough things to keep the economy afloat."

Rhine looks at me oddly "That's radical and risky."

*Chuckle* "yeah and it didn't work either."

"So what do those 2 do anyway?"

"They...or I should say the vice president is the only one that's done anything. He made sure that everything's good for the environment even if it costs too much money otherwise the president has pretty much fucked up the economy by getting us into 2 wars, the first one I agreed with, but the second just didn't make sense at all."

He looks at me with interest "what are your views on the Republican party?"

*Sigh* "that's something you have to figure out for yourself, otherwise I will be influencing you to accept my views and I think you need to make your own decision on who's right and who's wrong, not me because that's corruption and we don't need any more that."

He looks at me confused not understanding why I don't just simply answer the question "Well what party are you part of?"

*Chuckle* "I already told you I'm not telling you anything like that because you will only agree with whatever I say."

Rhine starts to give me the puppy dog eye treatment. "Plea..."

I interrupt angrily "NO DAMNIT, now get in the car before someone sees us." I unlock the doors and point to them.

Rhine growls in agitation that I won't answer his questions "fine" then walks over as I open the door, he gets in, and crossed his arms pouting."

*Chuckle* "you got to be kidding me a 170 year old pouting, you know you are older than any human that's ever existed and your pouting, damn that's funny."

He glares at me as the other 2 get in on the other side. "Don't fucking start, our race is different from yours."

"Yeah and so far physical is the biggest difference I've seen."

Rhine rolls his eyes "whatever" then turns into his regular wolf form. The female wolf jumps in the car and sits in the middle.

I look at her ‘oops I forgot she was even here' "look you see how quiet she is, why can't you do that."

He looks away from me and lies down.

I shake my head, open the driver's side door, get in, and wait for Tairin ‘dam I hope this doesn't take too long. One hour later "so what does Tairin have to do before he can join us?"

Rhine looks at me nervously and fidgety "we...well he has to do our sacred magical ritual of the dead then he can join us."

‘Again with this fucking magic shit' "ok what the fuck is this magic shit you're talking about because I don't get why no one will tell me."

Rhine looks at me sincerely "I'm sorry, but I can't tell you without Tairins permission and I'm pretty sure that he wants to do that himself."

I nod in agitation. Tairin shows up completely exhausted. I open my door "hey come on, you're sitting next to me in the front."

Once he gets in the car he meekly manages "hur...hurry th...there be...behind us about 4 miles back."

*Chuckle* "it will be awhile before they get here, now hang on...you guys are in for a ride" I start the car; turn us around, floor it, and we all speed off onto the road leaving nothing but a trail of dust behind us.

Damn that was a good chapter. Now if you're wondering why I didn't put the death caution, it's because I didn't want to spoil anything and your all adults and can handle something like this and if not there will be sex later in this story, so you can't speak up even if you wanted to, but you all know how much I can about that anyway. I almost forgot about the female wolf, ha I was so focused on the males that I almost completely forgot about her, that's why I just threw that part in there unexpectedly. I hope you can handle politics, if that's not your thing then prepared to be educated I guess because politics is a big part of my life mainly because I like history so much. I'm not one sided, but I do belong to one party and if you really think about it you can figure it out. If you're wondering the president isn't Bush even though it was tempting to put him as the president I decided to leave real people out and put real situations along with my own situations that I made up. You won't hear about politics for some time now, unless I decide to have a conversation about it, but I will try not to. My best friend hates politics, that's why I keep thinking that you will to, but I hope you don't and if you do, bear with me and ignore some of it but you won't be able to ignore it all because I will get you with my interesting conversations ha. Anyway my best friend hates politics because of his hardcore republican dad won't shut up about it. I want to say something, but I know it will end horribly, so I just shut up about it because I don't want to ruin my friendship between me and my best friend's family. Anyway leave some comments and stuff like that. Sorry about me getting into all the car stuff, next chapter I will get into more interesting things like 2 legged creatures.
