Myth ran around in the morning light, she saw a forest in the distance and stumbled towards it. Her large paws, tripping her as she ran. Myth smiled and shook her head in amazment as she saw the forest...
The forest was a winter wonderland! It didn't even seem real, Myth looked around curious of her surroundings. She had never seen so much white stuff, in fact had never seen white stuff before. She wondered if is was soft or hard, stiffing her paw in it she quickly found out it was a mixture of everything. She padded through the stuff floating on top like an angel, some parts were soft and mushy and other hard and in crystals.
Myth saw rabbits and birds, she didn't know what do do when a crow flew down and pecked at her. Myth smiled and kept walking she saw some shrubs laced with ice, and pines blanketed in soft patches of snow. Myth sighed were was she going she didn't know why she was even here! Her tummy growled long painful requests to be fed, Myth looked around trying to find fruit or something soft. Instead she smelt something it smelt odd and funny, but she followed her nose anyways.
Myth's nose lead her to an aspen tree with very low branches, hmm she thought if only I could get up there. Then remembering she could, she gracfully jumped to the first branch then the second, and third. Myth then saw what the strange scent had come from, a small nest was nestled in the twigs.
Myth didn't know who she could get it, but with a risky move she walked across the flimsy branch. Reaching the nest she, devored a small sparrow egg. Eating the next one she decided to save the last one for the momma sparrow! Myth then crept lower down then back up to a wide and strong branch, laying down she then lied there looking like a young cougar taking a nap...

Aquilae "God save us, everyone, will we burn inside the fires of a thousand suns? For the sins of our hands, the sins of our tongue, the sins of our fathers, the sins of our young. No." [/i] ---Linkin Park, The Catalyst Aquilae was bored. He had nothing to do. Nothing had happened, and it didn't seem like anything would happen. He had sent his pack members to do background tasks like hunting, and Aquilae has slipped out while they were gone. He scented a puppy nearby, a new member if he ever smelled one. He followed the scent trail to a young pup basking in the sunshine. Aquilae approached cautiously. "Why hello there, little pup," he whispered warmly. "What is your name? Don't worry, I mean you no harm." He really meant the little pup no harm, and wished he couls have the pup as an ally.

Myth jumped at the site of an adult canine, shaking she jumped out of the tree. "Hello, my name is Myth, what's yours" she said smiling, her tail started shaking and knocked a twig of of one of the trees many branches. Blushing she lowered her head "am I on your land" she asked quietly, she didn't want to offend this adult. She had seen what adults could do to other adults and decided that the best thing to do was to lay down. Lieing there she whimpered.. and waited for the male's strong voice to fill her small puppy ears..

Aquilae "God save us, everyone, will we burn inside the fires of a thousand suns? For the sins of our hands, the sins of our tongue, the sins of our fathers, the sins of our young. No." [/i] ---Linkin Park, The Catalyst What was he supposed to say? No? She was on his land... "Yes, but you can stay forever if you want. You could join our pack and play forever here," he responded, the warmth still in his deep voice, "I am Aquilae, and I am Alpha here. You can join my family, if you want. We could be friends. Don't be shy." The first part wasn't entirely true. She would have to hunt and learn to fight. But it would be fun, to be trained with friends. He'd train her if he had to. With gentle fighting moves and great hunting styles. He'd be her friend, if she wanted. If not, they'd be allies. Members of the same family. The same pack.

''I would love to live with you guys, I was left and have been looking for a family". She then smiled ''wait here" she said as she jumped back into the tree, getting back to the third branch was easier now and she got the last egg. dropping it down it cracked on the first brach and the soft liquidy inside streamed on to the snow. Then climbing higher she grabbed an egg from another nest and brought it to the empty nest, ''here momma sparrow it is not your egg but will be your baby" she said quietly as she dropped it into the nest. Then she jumped down out of the tree and layed down, waging her tail.

Aquilae "God save us, everyone, will we burn inside the fires of a thousand suns? For the sins of our hands, the sins of our tongue, the sins of our fathers, the sins of our young. No." [/i] ---Linkin Park, The Catalyst Aquilae smiled at the pup. Taking one and giving it back. They were meant to be friends. "Then let's go to our camp, and I'll introduce you," he whispered joyously, then added, "Do you want to be friends, Myth? Forever and a moon?" He knew, hopefully what she'd say. She was too kind to say no. Everyone was his friend, but this pup was making the impression of a best friend, one that could last a lifetime. And maybe beyond that, though he didn't believe in an afterlife. Maybe she did, and that would count him able to enter the afterlife, when he finally passed.

Aquilae "God save us, everyone, will we burn inside the fires of a thousand suns? For the sins of our hands, the sins of our tongue, the sins of our fathers, the sins of our young. No." [/i] ---Linkin Park, The Catalyst Ah. A mate is what she meant. "I don't have a mate yet. I haven't found the right person yet. But I will," Aquilae said comfortingly. A tear had rolled down her cheek. Why? She bit his ear playfully to try to cover it up. Aquilae looked inside her emotions, trying to pry the information out, and found that she needed to lead. It was her 'destiny.' "You know, destiny can be a funny thing," he said after reading her emotions, "It can seem like it's one thing, then you realize it has twisted into something completely different! So what you think is your destiny now will be different tomorrow." He hoped she took what he said into account. He didn't want her to push forth and make herself Alpha, or worse, leave.

''Who will you know when you found the right person" she asked quietly jumping down from his back and looking at him. "How did you know", she asked "you know my mom always told me that I was to lead a pack, and claim land, though all I really want is to have a family". "When I ever think about not having a pack it makes me cry, I see my mom looking down at me disapointed at me".. "Are you still going to lead me to the camp" she asked quietly..

Aquilae "God save us, everyone, will we burn inside the fires of a thousand suns? For the sins of our hands, the sins of our tongue, the sins of our fathers, the sins of our young. No." [/i] ---Linkin Park, The Catalyst "I know many things, Myth. Many things," Aquilae responded, wisdom in his bark. "You could be leader here, in my pack, if you tried very hard and became Beta. Who knows? I may grow up to appoint you as my Beta. Then, when I retire or pass, you can lead my pack. You can own my land. You can complete your destiny. And you can have a family now. You already do. A pack is a family. I am your family. Everyone in Lapsos Ultionem will be your family. But I will be more of your family, for a friend is like a sibling. A friend is closer to family than most parents. Because a friend will understand you better." He finished, looking at the pup, expecting anything; tears, silence, anything. His eyes were so calm and warm, and his face had turned to a smile. Pups were so innocent.

Myth smiled "You are like the the brother and father I never had" she smiled and playfully bit his leg. I will forever follow you she said smiling, her big eyes full of love and joy.. ''I will forever work hard and be loyal to you and the rest of the members".. She then smiled and then stared him in the eyes, "can you show me to hunt" she asked quietly...

Aquilae "God save us, everyone, will we burn inside the fires of a thousand suns? For the sins of our hands, the sins of our tongue, the sins of our fathers, the sins of our young. No." [/i] ---Linkin Park, The Catalyst Aquilae's smile widened. "Of course, Myth. I am your mentor, after all," Aquilae responded happily, "Now watch me." Aquilae stared at a rabbit, nibbling on a leaf. Aquilae flicked his ears toward it, then dropped into a hunting crouch. He leapt as it turned away, then snapped its neck, ending its life. He silently thanked the prey for giving its life to him, and dropped the rabbit, burying it to pick up later. "Now you try," Aquilae gently commanded. He knew she probably wouldn't get the sparrow chirping away in the grass or the vole nibbling on a seed nearby on her first shot, but if she did, he'd be delighted. He wasn't a very good mentor.

Myth watched and learned quickly, hmm she said as she heard a strange sound ''MOMMA MOMMA" she followed the sound ina croutching poistion. She saw a small fawn stuck in the snow... She remembered her mother hunting these creatures she said that they give alot of meat! Myth jumped into a tree branch above then looked back at Aquilae, jumping down she bit the fawns neck and broke it.. She then growled as a large brown version of the fawn, ran at her snorting..
Myth ran whimpering then back into the tree and growled at the strange creature as it went back to her kill. She then thanked the fawn for giving it life in a song, her glorious song changing pitchs as she sang.

Aquilae "God save us, everyone, will we burn inside the fires of a thousand suns? For the sins of our hands, the sins of our tongue, the sins of our fathers, the sins of our young. No." [/i] ---Linkin Park, The Catalyst Wow! Even Aquilae hadn't noticed the fawn. Myth killed it easily, then fled back into her tree when the fawn's father showed up. The father was just about to drag the fawn away when Aquilae jumped at the retreating deer. He bit down on its neck, snapping it instantly, and thanked it for its job in feeding his pack. "Don't go for game you can't get," Aquilae snapped, then calming himself, he said, "I could smell that deer from a mile away. You could have gone for that sparrow," he gestured to the sparrow, "Or that vole," he pointed to the vole, "You don't have to impress me. You already have."

Myth sighed "very sorry, but are you sure you smelt it you were glued to that vole you never even heard it bleating" she said with a faint smile. She then jumped down from the tree "what if that sparrow was the momma sparrow", she said now completley sure there was an instinct she had that he didn't. Maybe she was just caring and but then she might not of been able to kill. She trotted over to Aquilae and pounced on him making him lose his balance as she tackled his leg. Myth then sighed "will there be other pups like me" she said quietly.
