History:
Cinder is from Arizona originally but when it came time for her to move out she decided to live in Montana. she had always loved the cold and the woods and thought it would be the best place to move to, she had no one holding her back and didnt mind the traveling between Arizona and Montana to visit her Family.
"Just the thought of an new life away from the Drama of old friends makes me feel at ease." she thought to her self as she was browsing the internet for apartments in a really cute town out side the city. "Who knows i may end up making new friends in this new place."
Cinder had graduated high school at age 17 and started college a year later. After her Sophomore year in college was over she had found the perfect place and had already enrolled and chosen her classes at a Community College near the cute town in Montana. Exactly 15 min away. And she was right, while moving she did make some new close friends at school. She had decided to work on getting her Doctorate Degree in Science and Nursing, for she did not really know what she wanted to do in the medical field so thought it best to just go as far as she could in the schooling so she can figure it all out when she Graduates.
As Cinder walked up the stair case of the apartment complex with the last of all the boxes in hand she shuffled through her purse for the key to her flat,"Grr." she managed to say with her lolly pop in her mouth. Cinder hated the bottomless pit of un-organization in her vintage tan satchel but it was to cute to replace, so she tolerated it. "Here let me help you with that." said a voice behind her, a very deep husky voice. She turned her head to see who it was behind her, balancing her heavy box with one arm and her hand in her bag. It was a Young Mutt around her age, maybe older. She gazed for a moment, studying his facial features and lean cut bod."Oh." she managed to say, she was suddenly unable to move having been struck by the arrow of cupid.
The man walked over and took the box from her arm and held it for her off his hip like it was a sack of potatoes but had feathers in the sack and not the potatoes. Cinder Blinked to snap out of it, it wasn't nice to stare, "Thanks." she said, "I though my arm was gonna fall off." he laughed, "Well we wouldn't want that now would we. I'm Tucker," he said reaching out his free hand expecting her to shake it, "Nice to meat you, I'm Cinder." she said pulling her left arm out of her bag to shake his hand. "What a unique name. I don't think I've seen you around here before did you move from another town?" Tucker asked, "Oh no, I moved here from Arizona." Tucker was suddenly surprised, "Oh Wow. That's pretty far away, what made you want to move here?" he said not trying to pry but sounding friendly. "The weather." Cinder answered with a smile. "Oh Ok. Yea the snow is killer here." He said back. "Yea, I'm a sucker for snow haha." she said.a few minutes went by as they got to know each other and then,"Well its no fun talking out here and my arm is starting to feel like its going to fall off." Tucker said, "Oh sorry ill open the door." Cinder said apologetically and shuffled through her satchel for her keys. "Oh, Its no problem." Tucker said embarrassed he had said anything and didn't want to have accidentally insulted her. Cinder finally found her keys and pulled them out. Then, she went up to the door, turned the key and opened the door letting Tucker in first to set down the box. "You can just set it on the floor ill get to it later." Cinder said as she walked in behind him. Tucker set down the box as Cinder slid past him to her kitchen bar counter and set down her things. "Welcome to my Humble abode." she said with a friendly smile, extending her arm out like a realtor showing a home. "Wow." Tucker said with enthusiasm. He walked further down the hall as he looked around at all the vintage decor and furniture, modern shelving on the wall with some boxes still scattered around the room with bubble wrap hanging off some. "You did an amazing job!" he exclaimed. "Eh its not finished yet but thanks." Cinder said accepting the complement. He walked over to where she was looking at the pictures on the wall, a black and white cat on the couch and to the scenery out her window, "I would have killed for that view." He said walking over to the sliding door to her balcony. A view of the town and the street below with little shops on every block. "Thanks, I just fell in love with the view and couldn't let anyone else try and take it. So i gave them an offer they couldn't refuse." She said with a Smile. "I knew the people who lived here and tried my best to pry it off them but they wouldn't budge." Tucker said gazing off the balcony, crisp autumn breeze rolling across the town. The trees were all in season making the town look even more Beautiful then a post card picture. Cinder leaning on the balcony bar looked over at him. Tucker turned to look back at her and blushed. He quickly looked away, Cinders white hair blowing in the wind had made her look like a model in a magazine and he had a slight nose bleed moment. "I'm glad they didn't give it to me tho." he said looking in the other direction trying to hide his sudden attraction to this new girl he had barely met. Cinder noticed his sudden change of feelings towards her and she to blushed; she smiled to his comment and tried not to make anything awkward so she looked at the scenery again, "I have yet to explore the town, its so big I dont know where to start." she giggled. Tucker quickly wiped his head around and looked over at her, "Ill show you!" sounding eager he quickly caught himself not wanting to sound desperate. "The town i mean," he smiled, "Ill be your tour guide." Cinder looked at him, "No, i couldn't i still have to unpack and find a job then feed Felix." she was cut off from her excuses, "C'mon what could it hurt. Isn't it time you taken a break anyways?" Tucker said with smile " 'With that that smile how could i refuse.' " Cinder thought to her self. she paused for a moment and made a thinkers pose, "Alright. I guess I could go. But only for a little while!" she said raising a brow at him.
***
Time had passed and it was now 7 O'clock. Tucker had shown her half the town, from the historical park on Central to the small boutiques and Old shops. They had found a funny costume store on the corner of Williams and dressed up in many different out fits, making fools of them selves and taking pictures of themselves before almost getting kicked out of the store. Guess the store owner was getting tired of their fun noticing they weren't going to buy anything and asked to leave.
Walking up the stair case back to her apartment they had been laughing the whole way home about random things, stupid things and the store owner at the costume store. "I can still see the look on his face, 'Hey! Buy Something, Or Get Out.' Price less." Tucker said smiling as the grew closer to their doors. "HAHA I know, What a day." she said trying to catch her breath from all the laughing. then she remembered she didn't know where Tuckers door was. "Wheres your Place?" she asked after they had calmed down. "Oh. I'm right here." he said with his thumb out to the side gesturing to a brown door, three doors down from her. "Oh Ok." she replied, "Well thank you for the tour. I had a great time." Cinder said with a big smile as they stopped in front of his door. A slight pause came from Tucker before he had snapped out of where ever his mind had wandered, "Yea...It was my pleasure Madam!" he said in an accent and bowing, they had dressed up as people in high class back at the costume store. Cinder laughed, "bye." she said with a smile before she had walked to her door. Tucker watched her before they both exchanged gazes, opened their doors and walked inside their separate flats. Breaking the gaze with closed doors, backs up against them and slid down with butterflies in their stomachs and hearts racing faster then they ever had before. "He/Shes amazing." they both thought.
Cinder didn't expect to meet a guy let alone like anyone till she had finished school. And tucker had just gotten out of a long relationship. Felix the cat being as weird as ever slung over Cinders shoulder, "I don't know Felix what to you think?" Cinder said talking to her cat. He looked up at her and cocked his head to the side, "mooow." He said very long. "Yea I think so to." She said petting him. Tucker thinking the same thing with his hand on his face, "Will I be able to let her go.."

Her story is alot like her Half sister Jane's. She was born on the streets as a pup, near the woods. her mother was Wolf and her father was a mut of some kind. Her mother was never really around, mostly doing missions or battles for her pack. She loved being around her half sister though. They played and practiced fighting together all the time, trying to get better at their attacks and skills. She never really knew her father, he was never really around but when he was she tried her best to get to know him more. tho, with him, she got the sense of not being wanted at times, but she still tried anyways. she learned to steel and how to become a stoaway on ships and boats, how to pick pocket and fight better. she loved being in the city because of all the bright lights, and being in their Underground City as well, because in that city no one cared you were there, they enjoyed her company. Unlike the city above. she befriended many dogs and ally cats."its her Kind nature that makes them want to be around her." her sister would always say. Her symbol came to be when she was only a pup. similar to her Half sisters only this just means Beast in japanese. Her sister has the full markings of their blood line, but because Alana is only Half wolf she bestoed the mark of Beast. the markings come at a young age when the pup fur starts to fall away to make room for the adult fur coat. thus slowly making the marking come into view. some say the blood line of this wolf family is from royalty, touched by the ainchient wolves, but is only a legand now.

History: Tuckers story is the same as Cinders. Only different past, Tucker was in love once. With a Girl named Daina. She was a beautiful brunet, and despite her being high maintenance tucker still loved her. they were polar opposites yes but they still some how made it all work. They were in love, and engaged.
looking up into the sky watching the fire works show from their friends balcony Tucker turned to Daina,"Happy New Year Honny." he said looking at the light flashing on her face as she gazed up at the fire works. She turned to him with a warm smile, "Happy New Years." After the fire works had ended, the guests had started leaving the party. So Tucker and Daina did the same, they had been drinking yes but a friend offered to take them home. Sober John, a good friend of Tuckers, piled everyone into the car and drove off in the direction of Tucker and Dainas place.
Their house was about an hour long but they managed to make the best of the time in the car as they drove. Going through all the twists and turns of the mountain pass they laughed and joked to pass the time away. As they came up to the last turn of the mountain they all started saying their good byes as their house was very near. John saw the dirt road after the last turn on the mountain and started to slow down. "Dude Im Glad you could make it. It totally made my knight that you guys came." Jonh said to Tucker and Daina. "Your only saying that because i was your wing man in getting you a possible gf." John made a face like he was found out. "Yea but still im glad you guys came." He said quickly back to Tucker. As they pulled up the drive way they grabbed all their things and got out of the car once it stopped. Tucker waved good by as his friend drove off.
that night Daina wasn't feeling to well but thought nothing of it and went to sleep anyways, thinking it must have been the alcohol not settling well in her stomach. So she kept a trashcan by her bed side just in case she felt the urge to hurl. Days went by and her symptoms only got worse and Tucker was getting worried. "I'm taking you to the hospital come on, we are leaving." Tucker said in concern for her well being. "...Tucker...I cant move..I just hurt..." Scared Daina started to cry. Tucker froze and quickly snapped out of where ever his mind had wandered and walked over to picked her up and carry her to the car. he grabbed her around the back and under her legs and set her carefully in the car.
When they arrived at the Hospital Daina had started hurting even worse the before. "Its like I'm being stabbed in my stomach." Daina said as Tucker got out of the car to get a Wheel chair and an emergency team. when he came back he had explained all her symptoms to the nurses and raced inside behind them after they had Daina moved onto a bed. A Doctor was waiting in the room assigned for them and quickly started asking questions, they symptomes the nurse had explained to him caused concern to him and he wanted to conferm what the nurse had told him so he asked Daina what it is she felt. The symptoms were the same. He had run into something similar to her case and quickly took action. "What you have is a form of Stomach cancer. It makes you feel like your stomach is being punched or stabbed on the inside. Only I've never seen it spread this fast...Ill immediately put you on antibiotics and run some tests." The doctor said and quickly left the room.
".omg...OMg OMg!!!" Daina said as she started to freak out, she was throwing her arms everywhere and tucker tried to grab them to calm her down, "Its OK, ITS OK!" tucker said as he finally caught her arms. Daina looked away with her eyes closed crying. "..Hey.. Look at me..Everything's going to be fine." Tucker said trying to comfort her but he knew it wasn't going to be ok, he tried not to cry and pushed back the tears so he could stay strong for her. "NO ITS NOT TUCKER!" she said opening her eyes but still looking away crying, "I have Cancer, its to late for me now... its probably already spreading." Daina said coming to terms with her fate. "Dont you dare say that!" Tucker said in a stern voice, he reached his hand to her chin to turn her head so he can look her in the eyes. He gazed at the beautiful green eyes and thought about how much he loved her and how he would be nothing with out her. "You'll be OK." He said to her, she didn't seem to convinced but the thought of him being by her side made it all ok. Even if it wasn't.
2 years passed and Daina had already lost all her hair. Their doctor not giving up to try and save her started looking for better antibiotics and running her through Kemo. The money used for Kemo was taken out of their Wedding account and used to try and save her...But nothing was working. They didn't give up hope, clinging to God they prayed and spent all the days at the Hospital together. Making the best out of the time they had left together. Then their biggest nightmares became a reality, Dr. Matthew walked in with an expression of depression on his face. He closed the door, Tucker and Daina looking at each other like what it could be troubling him? And braced them self for the news. Dr. Matthew pulled up a chair and leaned on his knees looking at the floor. "The cancer is spreading." Daina froze. "It's spread to her kidneys, and...their failing. We can put her on an organ doner list list but it would take a whole lot of waiting." Tucker grasped Diana's hand that rested on his shoulder, holding back the tears he spoke, "What can we do? There must be something we can do!" Dr. Matthew looked up, "Just take the same antibiotics." Then he paused a moment. "I'll giver her mine." Tucker said. "What" Daina and Dr.Matthews said in unison, "I'll give her my kidney. What ever it takes to save you Ill do it!"
Dr. Matthews set up the preparations to transfer his kidney to Daina. Diana's father also gave her his kidney, after Tucker's was transferred her right kidney failed a month later and her father as well couldn't bare to see her the way she was and donated his kidney aswell. She did fine for a few years and her stomach canser started to shrink in size but was still causing problems. Daina wanted tucker to go home and get some proper rest after his insision healed up. She hated seeing him sleep on a chair and wanted him to get some fresh air. After arguing he decided to go after losing the fight. That night Diana's stomach canser grew back to its original size and spread once more but this time taking over her stomach. "Ring, ring." The tone of the house phone suddenly sounded sad, tucker glanced over at the time, "Three in the morning?" He reached over to answer the phone, "mmm Hello?" He said in to the phone, "Tucker, it's Phil." Phil was Diana's father after tucker had left the hospital the day before her parents decided to watch over her that night while Tucker got his sleep. "It's Daina," tears were in the back ground Phil holding back his tears, but choking on them at the same time, "Shes um, passed away. Could you come down here please." Tucker didn't have the breath to speak. "Hello? Tucker? Tucker?...son!" Phil said, "Yea I'll be right there."
The preparations for the memorial took place days after. Weeping could be heard a mile away as she was being put into the ground. Tucker had to go to counseling at his church in order to cope with Daina being gone, She was his whole world and living with out her brought sorrow and anger into his life. The counselors suggested starting over, "In order to heal you must remember the good times but also comeing to terms of moving on. Starting over. Getting rid or let go, of the things that you hold onto most that reminds you of her. because holding on to these can be self inflicted pain with out knowing it." Tucker had to let that sink in, "start over"? 'let go"?, those words rattling in his head. How could he start over? Falling in love seemed wrong to him. He felt like he would be betraying Daina. So when he told the counselor this he gave him some helpful exercises so that he would be able to let Daina go and start over. these worksheets he completed with help from his Bible. A book that had been with him for a very long while and had sadly not been opened since Daina's death. He worked through the challenges with help from his counselor and was finally in a stable enough state where he was able to finally let her go when he decided moving into a new place would be best. He kept a select few things of Daina but not to the extent to where he relapses. Just photos of her of all the good times they had together, She was now only a memory of a very good friend.
Years later Tucker was walking up to his apartment when he saw a very nice looking girl struggling with her Boxes and trying to open her door. Grunts and Growls came from where she was, he could only stand and giggle a bit until he decided to help her out. She strained her head in his direction when she heard steps walking up behind her, he was stunned by how pretty she was and tried not to make it obvious to her that he was drooling so he played it cool. They soon got to know each other right off the bat, and had alot in common. This girls name was Cinder, a Collie with Snow white hair. (see Cinders story above for their meeting)
When tucker returned to his apartment his heart was racing. He slid down his door, once inside, with hand on his head and elbow on his knee. He couldn't believe how much he liked this girl, and they only had just met. It felt good going out again and getting to know people but he never had though he would be able to find a girl he liked as much as he had Daina. And now that he had he was confused, he didn't really know what to do but he knew he was happy being around Cinder, and that seemed to only matter to him. It had been a while since he was this happy, and he liked it. He did like Cinder but felt like he should get to know her more.

Before either of them knew it they were finally together, 2 years went by and he finally asked Cinder if she would marry him and she said Yes. Happily married they lived a quiet life with 3 little pups running around and weird little Felix Cinders Black and white cat.
