Shadow fell to the ground in shock when the wolf attacked it, and it reeled in its tendrils for a worthless defense. She watched him thrash it about, and then it retreated into a corner. Then, he came and licked her wounds. She looked over her shoulder at spots of blood, and watched the wolf care for her. She occasionally flinched at his tongue but positioned herself closer to him. She gave him a quiet and short-lived purr of thanks, and leaned against him. She wondered how the strange little alien got in the complex, if perhaps there was more than one opening in the ship, or if it had gotten through the same one the corpse had used. She reached up and licked the wolf, glad he was still here.

The feline gave short purr as Kiba cleaned her wounds, and then leaned against him. The feline then gave him a short lick. Kiba felt appreciation at this gesture, and was glad that his presence was comforting to her, as was hers to him. He then decided to curl around her, seeing she had been a little shocked and thinking it would help comfort her. That creature, he had never seen anything like it. And it confused and enraged him. Where had it come from? Perhaps they would find out shortly. They must have been near some sort of opening through which the creatures were coming. Kiba licked the last of the wounds clean and remained curled next to the cat. He decided to wait until she was ready to get back up and continue onward.

Shadow rested her eyes when the wolf curled around her. She felt safer with him, and buried her muzzle into his fur as he cleaned the last of her wounds. Nothing would be nicer right now than a nap, but a low snarl from the glowing native in the corner reminded her that a nap would have to wait. She heard the wolf's heart beat faster than hers would, maybe he was on alert or angry about something, but she still laid with him and got warm from cold fear.
His scent of fire was one of safety now, and she loved it. She let her whole body relax for a few moments, resting her head between their paws, and let a quiet steady purr escape her throat. The wolf seemed deep in thought as usual, so she rubbed her head lightly against his shoulder, then stood. She dipped her head and licked behind his ear in thanks, and looked to the next door.
The creature was squished in a corner near the new door, and Shadow let a small growl of annoyance fill the room. It was returned by fearful and angry groans and snarls by the native green. Suddenly she wanted to be as far away from the radioactive creature as possible, as she could smell its decaying blood where she fell, and from across the room, and even faintly on the wolf's breath. She flattened her ears and wrinkled her nose as she glared at the door, wondering how she would get past the creature, if it was even hostile anymore, or to just kill it.

Kiba noticed the cat begin to relax as he layed beside her and cleaned her wounds. He was glad that he was calming her. She relaxed and rested her entire body for a moment, then gave a steady purr. Kiba felt happy that the cat was relaxed now. He was on alert, but felt comfortable as well. And he wanted to stay and rest for a while. But a low growl had come from the corner, and he remembered that they had to continue moving. The cat arose and gave a lick behind his ears, then looked at the next door. Kiba felt very much appreciated by this cat, and was comforted by the lick. She then have a snarl at the corner, which returned a snarl back. They had to find a way through that door. Kiba decided he would push the beast in the opposite direction so they could pass. Hopefully itd still remember the fight he gave it. Kiba ran around up to the side of the door, looking back to make sure the feline was following before he turned the corner around a counter and bolted at the beast. He stopped a few feet from it and barked repeatedly, snarling in between barks. The beast snarled back and swiped at him a few times, but Kiba was able to push it back enough to intimidate it. Eventually the barking and snarling did the job. He had gotten scratched a few more times, but nothing compared to the first encounter. The creature ran away towards the other end of the room, and Kiba took the opportunity to make sure they got through the door. He looked back at the feline and motioned his head towards the door. He would wait until she was through. He didnt want the beast to attack her again, and wanted to ensure she got through safely.

Shadow followed the wolf, staying close behind him. Once the green thing had scurried away, she sniffed the doorway, keeping her ears aimed towards the native, and glanced at the wolf before pushing the curtain-like doorway aside and disappearing. She came out in the same hallway as before, around another corner.
Around a nearby corner she could see a hole in the wall large enough for them to squeeze through, near what appeared to be another door. In the opposite direction, more hallway, with some doors along it. She looked back at the wolf wondering where they should go.

Kiba saw the feline move through the door, and followed her into the next room. Inside was another hallway with more machines and several doors. But what caught Kibas attention was a hole in the wall large enough for the two of them to fit through. He wondered if this was the entrance through which those strange creatures had came. Kiba was curious where it led, and saw the cat looking at him as if awaiting his action. Seeing this, he looked over at the hole in the wall and whined, gesturing his interest in that.

Shadow glanced at the hole again, and back over her shoulder along the inner hall. She felt the radiation burning her whiskers as she crept towards the hole she peeked out, refusing to inhale, and a wall beside the hole on the outside had a door facing them. It was like a small courtyard, the airlock surrounding two of the four sides, the ship the third, and the fourth was the entrance to the strange planet. Thats fresh air... she felt the burning in her eyes and whiskers and flattened her ears. She continued to look around for a moment, bioluminescent moss seemed to have taken over the airlock, in patches.
Soon she had to take a breath and pulled her head back inside. She turned away and took a breath, and felt the radiation burning through her lungs. It hurt to breathe, but once she stopped breathing, she collapsed.

The feline had decided to move towards the hole in the wall, and so Kiba followed close behind her. As they approached the hole Kiba felt a sort of burning sensation, like he was near a fire. It got worse and worse the closer they got. The cat poked her head outside the hole for a few moments. Kiba had to hold his breath in order for his lungs to not feel the same burning that the rest of his body did. He could see the natural environment outside as he stood just behind the cat, attempting to get a glimpse of the outside as she was. Then suddenly she collapsed after retreating back inside. Kiba was in shock, and hurriedly grabbed the feline with his jaws and dragged her away from the opening. He knew that it must have been the outside that had caused her to faint. It was that burning, whatever it was, that had done it. So he dragged her through a doorway and into a room that happened to be right next to the hole, far enough inside that he could be sure she would recover without it happening again. He sat down beside her licked her, hoping she would wake up. He felt worried and didnt understand what had happened or what that burning feeling had been. Then he began to feel lightheaded, and dizzy. He stumbled around a little. "What is going on?", he thought. Then, he fell unconscious.

A world of color... Three large moons in the sky... One larger... Two small... All glowing and colorful against a jet black sky... Not a star tonight... Hey, it's the wolf... He's howling, it sounds like danger... I don't see any danger...
Vines! Lots of them! They're flying around... Roots now that I see them... They're covered in blood...
Something just landed in front of me- oh- the pain... The wolf's head, I can't look at it... Nothing but fur and bone... Half of his face is peeled off the bone, a milky opalescent white bone, cracked down the middle, his white stripe crooked with the fallen in cranium and stained dark scarlet in his own blood... His fur is matted badly and glued in every direction at random... His bottom jaw gone.
Shadow woke with a massive gasp. She flipped over and bristled her fur, expecting to see long wooden tendrils reaching for her after draining her companion's body of life and energy. She jumped to her feet, and saw him laying near her unconscious. Her eyes went blurry and she fell again, and took a breath. She regained vision and crawled close to the wolf.
His face was perfect, no blood-soiled fur, no missing face, white marking. She nuzzled her way under one of his forepaws and felt his warmth. Still alive... she thought in relief. She curled up under his chin.
Wolf, wolf wake up! Wake up! Please! She poked under his jaw with her nose. His head only slightly twitched at the motion. She set her head under his and listened to the pulse in his throat, waiting for him to wake up.

Kiba felt as if he were floating in a dark, black nothingness. Everything was pitch black. It remained that way for some time, but then suddenly was replaced with a dream. He was with the cat, and he felt extremely calm. He felt the cat laying under his arm, and she pushed up under his jaw. He was comforted by her presence, and it made him feel safe. But he felt a tension coming from her. He sensed that something was going wrong, and came back to the realization that he was in a dream. "What if she needs me?", Kiba thought "I have to wake up". He tried opening his eyes and wrestling his way out of sleep. Eventually he succeeded, and awoke to find the cat nuzzled under his arm/paw, seeming frantic and worried. She must have been trying to wake him up. He remembered dragging her away from the hole in the wall and feeling dizzy after. He must have fainted as well. Kiba licked the feline gently until he felt her calm a little, and layed there with her for a minute. He was glad that she was safe and there with him, and felt relieved to see that she had waken up and recovered. He would remain laying down next to her until she felt ok getting back up and deciding on their next action.

Shadow purred when the wolf woke up and relaxed as he licked her. She laid her head on her paws and scanned the room. It was curved, with large windows and skylights, but completely sealed off. She moved her ears but heard nothing but their breathing.
She slowly crept back out of the wolf's paws and sniffed him. He seemed alright, a faint tang of radiation on him but nothing terrible. She licked his face, glad it wasn't shredded, and walked around him, still sniffing. She concluded he was fine, just radiation about him, and licked his ear.
She sat near him, straight like a statue, and laid her tail across her paws. She examined the room, the same one she had seen covered on the outside with glowing moss. Inside she saw another door, but knowing the outside toxin of atmosphere she decided not to explore that area. It looked more than curtain material, anyway. There was nothing but them inside the room, and windows.
Shadow glanced back at the wolf, and stared at him. She froze herself in this manner, and wondered why he would bring her to this room, as opposed to any of the other areas they'd been to. Why this dead end, with nowhere to go but a forest that only lets in the occasional ray of pure white light illuminating nothing, whose air burns to the touch and breath.

The feline relaxed when Kiba started licking her, resting her head on her paws and observing the room and its many windows on the walls and ceiling. She then slowly backed out from under his paw, sniffed at him, and licked him on the face. The cat walked around Kiba sniffing and examining before she gave him a lick on the ear as well. She must have been concerned about his safety, as he had been about hers. The cat then sat down and observed the room once more before looking back at Kiba and staring at him, as if wondering where he wanted to go next. Seeing this, Kiba headed back out the door of the room, making sure the feline wasnt too far behind, over to another doorway at end of the hallway opposite the one from which they came. He had seen the doorway earlier and wondered where it led. Inside Kiba saw rows of beds lining the sides of the room. These beds did not appear that they were intended for animals such as the feline and himself judging by its characteristics. And they were all identical in shape and size. "These must have been for humans" he thought. Kiba had seen human things before, and faintly remembered some of the things they were known for. He had seen their flying machines in the sky, and began to think that this structure had likely been one of those. He looked back to ensure that the cat was still by him, and then began looking about the room, taking in its details.

Shadow followed the wolf, into a new area in the hallway away from the hole and the way they'd come. He went to a doorway at the end of the hall, and she followed him inside.
Along the walls were rows of beds, large enough for both of them to lay comfortably in one. They were jutting out from the walls, and Shadow sniffed around the nearest one. It was longer than it was deep, and she hopped up into it. She continued sniffing, and then jumped down to examine the rest of the room.

Kiba saw the feline jump onto a bed after sniffing it, taking a moment to sniff it further while on it, and then jumping down. Kiba became interested as well, and jumped onto a bed to inspect its smell. It felt unlike any other material he had walked on. It almost bounced you back up if you pressed down on it for a second. It was actually pretty entertaining to jump on the bed. So Kiba started jumping higher and higher until he was jumping multiple feet in the air. He jumped from bed to bed like this out of just basic yet pure entertainment and enjoyment. As he jumped around he looked at the cat, hoping she would become curious and join him jumping. He had no idea why, but a basic and simple thing was evidently bringing him quite a bit of enjoyment.

Shadow inspected the rest of the beds before deeming it safe enough to sleep on. The wolf seemed to be ahead of her, or just a reckless dog, as he was jumping around the beds. She hopped onto one at the end by a window and looked outside. Nothing interesting, so she turned back and sniffed the bed. She jumped across the room, and couldn't get to jump very high, as she wasn't anywhere as heavy as the wolf, so she laid down in a corner and watched him entertain himself.
