The wind country, the home of Sunagakure, and many other villages besides. It is in one of these small villages, a place called Kyōfūgakure, the village hidden in the gale, that this particular story unfolded. The main thing about Kyōfūgakure is that, in the hills around it, there are huge numbers of wolves. Like the Inuzuka, many people end up training wolves to be their pets, to be their assistants, and even to be their friends. However, there is also a wide variety of completely natural wolves, who have never met humanity on equal grounds. There are wolves, out there in the land around the village, that would rather just stay away from humanity. They might find them a tasty meal if they'd stop throwing weapons at them everytime they tried, so they generally avoid contact with them altogether. This, sadly, is not the case with this specific wolf. This specific wolf was one of the trained wolves, one called Watage. It was the partner of a training genin who wanted nothing more than to grow up to be able to protect his country, to protect his village, and to make his parents proud. This was never to be it seemed, as he cut himself on a piece of glass on one of the missions he was sent on. Watage affectionately licked his master's wounds.... getting a taste of human blood. Now, I don't know how much you know about wolves and dogs and other animals of the canine variety, but generally all it takes is to taste human blood and they will become monstrous, starting to attack and try to eat humans. Of course, this doesn't happen to all dogs, as most of them are much too well trained to do something like this, and after centuries of domestication they can generally ignore their wild instincts. However Watage had only been trained for around a month at the time, not long enough to subjugate his animal instincts, and thus he turned into one of the human hunting ones, known to those who understood the species as a dire wolf. It was horrible, he dived upon his master, ripping him to pieces. and eating him alive. It was truly gruesome, something most people would not want to see, but his sister found it. And, as you can guess, she got eaten too. It was a barbaric display, and it took a chunin to drive it away from the other families, and now it's staying around the village's borders, attacking anyone who gets too close. With it's strong sense of smell, and it's raw animalistic hunger there is little that will be able to stop it... here's hoping something will, as, consistent with his luck up to this point in his life, it was Tomoya who was sent to have to deal with this little monster. Orders from the higher ups in the village it appeared, and he wasn't going to disobey direct orders from those who controlled him. He was, after all, a soldier of Sunagakure.
