WOLF HUNT:

Disclaimer: Spirit Wolf belongs to Val Gilliam, ShadowWing belongs to me, Please ask prior to borrowing ;-)
The terrified thug was pinned to the wall by ShadowWing's telekinetics, the Austin based crime fighter named Spirit Wolf had gone missing. ShadowWing had come to Austin to try and figure out what happened, lo and behold she had found on her first night out but a two bit street punk showing off a very unique set of knives. ShadowWing should know, she had seen a demonstration of them before, in the hands of her friend and partner Spirit Wolf. It had been a simple matter to scare off the punk's so-called pals and herd him into this abandoned warehouse. The terrified man whimpered before answering, "I don't know nothing!"
ShadowWing inwardly groaned at the bad English, and turned toward the man, knives in hand. "You actually expect me to believe that these knives just walked up to you?"
He just whimpered.
"I guess it's the hard way." ShadowWing picked out a knife, "Look I'm gonna give you eight chances to tell me what I want to know. If I like what you say, one of these knives will miss any part of your body I choose. If I don't like what you say or don't say, let's just say the result will not be pretty. First question, where did you get these knives?"
The creep eyed the knife carefully and finally blurted out, "My Boss gave them to me!!" The knife left the female crime-fighter's fingers a thudded into the wall behind him hooking his belt and pinning him to the wall in the right.
"I liked your answer." she reassured him, "Next question. Who's your Boss?" picking up a second knife.
He didn't delay his answer this time, "Dante! He only calls himself Dante!!!" This time the knife hit the left side of his belt....
By the time ShadowWing was through, she had the location where Spirit was captured, when she was captured, where Dante's headquarters was located, where the wolves were located, where Spirit's Bronco was dumped, and the color of his underpants.
After collecting the knives and mind-wiping the punk she went off to find her friend. First on the agenda was the Bronco, now way was she gonna fit two wolves, Spirit and herself, into her Viper. Especially if Spirit or the wolves were injured. She drove the Viper to an old dump on the outskirts of Austin, and there half buried under trash and scheduled to be crushed the next day was the dark green Bronco painted with Spirit's logo.
Thank God for telekinetics or she'd never have dug it out.
She stashed the Viper in a parking lot and drove off in the Bronco to the pound where the wolves had been dumped.
If the attendant and been awake at the time he would have noticed a sleek silver and black form creeping from cage to cage whispering "Smoke? Mist?" Though he woke up real quick when the aforementioned wolves answered, loudly.
"Hey!" he yelled, "What are you doing...." He slumped back into his chair with a blank look on his face as ShadowWing tampered with his mind to forget her and the wolves. After popping the lock on the cage doors, the two wolves danced around her happy to see anybody they knew, yipping and barking in typical canine fashion. Of course that set almost every other animal off as well.
After getting the wolves into the Bronco and thanking herself for leaving Black Magic in her hotel room, she cruised off to find Dante and Spirit Wolf.
Dante was your typical drug lord who specialized in getting merchandise over the border into the United Stated. The only things that separated him from other drug lords was his success and his name. Business was good, until Spirit Wolf entered the picture. For the past six months she had been systematically shutting his operation down and sipping key information on his operations to the Rangers and the local Police.
So when he received word from his associates that they had captured the Native American Crime Fighter, he jumped at the chance to have a talk with her.
That was two days ago, she still wasn't cracking. Truth serum was used, but she just answered his questions in what he presumed was her native language, what ever that was.
Physical techniques were next and not faring much better. He was getting just a little bit angry when a small commotion turned his train of thought.
Spirit came around from the haze she was in to gather her thoughts. "That can't be Smoke." she muttered. A loud yell was followed by one of the goons racing into the room with the aforementioned wolf hanging on to the man's britches with all his might. Spirit began to chuckle.
Mist raced in next and made a beeline for Dante, was holding a tazer over Spirit. Mommy was in danger....
Dante seeing the crazed wolf coming toward him, actually did something smart! He ran.
ShadowWing had finally taken care of the other guards and dashed into the room to see Smoke happily chewing on somebody's pants and Mist yipping and barking at a door with Spirit wincing and growling.
"Well it took ya long enough!!!!!"
Shadow Travis was on her feet again, and was not happy. She was pacing and rating, in her living room and muttering curses on Dante's head. Belle was happily typing away on her lap top. "After all of that!" she raved, "He still got away!!!! Ooooo.... If I ever get my hands on him..... Belle could you please stop typing, I can't rant with your typing distracting me."
Belle sighed, "If you insist Shadow I'm about done." she then scribbled something on a paper and handed it to Shadow. "Here, if you want to give Dante one hell of a pay back use this."
"What is it?" asked Shadow as she skimmed the paper.
"Dante short sheeted a few big boys in Colombia about a month back. They want to have a friendly chat with him, if your catching my meaning. Dante been covering his tracks so they can't find him or his operation. Heck they have been supplying him since the short deal and don't know it." Belle gave a mock sigh, "While you were recovering a did a bit of digging, and found out how to get a message to those guys in Colombia....catch my meaning?"
Shadow got a feral grin that rivaled the wolves.
A week later....
Belle got a phone call in New York, it was Shadow.
"Thought you might like to know, Dante has mysteriously disappeared and his operation is in shambles." snickered Shadow.
"Oh gee," replied Belle, "I wonder why?" with mock worry.
"Don't you know?" stated Shadow, "He was punished for illegally hunting a Wolf."
