Anat
(A-net)
-An egyptian goddess of Syrian origin. Anat had a warlike character. She usually was represented as a woman holding a shield and an axe. I figured this name suited her best.. though she hates war.. she sometimes likes to be referred to as Aka... just a name shes liked for awhile. Aka means red in Japanese.. referring to some of her markings xD-




Trust worthy
Anat is one who can keep a promise. Sometimes she can act childish maybe a little too much but she is still very responsible. She always keeps anything she says she is a very honest woi. She can always be trusted with responsibilities secrets promises and many other things because she knows that she needs to she was raised this way something that she learned from her family.
Prideful
Yes she is. She can be very prideful sometimes always thinking she is good, better than others. This is just something she might never grow out of but it's just another part of her. She tends to believe herself too that she is better than others she tends to do this a lot to and she holds onto her pride, winning is another thing than can trigger it . She loves to win or beat others because it makes her feel bigger.
Rebellious
She likes to not listen to show that she knows better something that can drive you crazy but also inspire. She never likes to listen it makes her feel like she is more independent and older. But the part than can inspire us how she wants to stand out she always she wants to change the world make it better and not watch it burn she wants the war to stop the fights with the krondors she never wants them to happen although she is a strong fighter she doesn't like to fight but she still wants to have power but without wars.
Brave
Fearless no never with out fear but Anat is a very strong soul. She somehow overcomes fear. When It comes to wars, which she hates, she locks herself in another state of thought, where she doesn't have anything to lose, therefore, why be afraid. Maybe its her competitiveness that takes over, or maybe she just doesn't get 'afraid'. If you aren't afraid, then you just do what you would do, and fight with a clear mind. Which in that case, even the weakest can over come the strongest opponent. The whole reason there is wars, is because they are afraid, of what their opponent can do. If you aren't afraid, they won't know what to do, they don't have any effect on you, so what's the point in fighting when clearly you have found the key.
Fierce
When I say she's brave, and she locks herself in another state of mine,she can be very fierce. She just drifts into that thought of "I need to win". And that usually leads into her getting angry and just going crazy trying to beat them all. Like I said before. Shes brave, strong,not to brag but maybe the perfect example of a great Woi. Like all her siblings. Strong and prideful, usually adds up to being fierce.
Bright
Anat is a very smart woi. She always thinks of what she's gonna do before she marches off to war, which is strange because she can come off as a very obnoxious being. But she isn't, well not as much as you'd think. Obviously she is alittle obnoxious but for her traits, she's doing ok. She always thinks of what she is going to say before she says it, which has proven to be a very good habit, considering she could go off sometimes. But even other than this she has a quick mind. She is very good at using her quick thinking to get herself out of many problems she may face, and very good at helping others too. She can be a very bright and smart WOI, when she needs to.
Funny
Anat has a very good sense of humor. She knows when a little humor could be used and when now is not the best time. Many like her because she's just a fun woi to be around. Her jokes vary from person to person (or from woi to woi xD) but in the end she tries to make everyone happy, and can sometimes find she tells herself jokes, just to cheer her up a bit. Thats just the kind of fun loving girl she is.
Respectful
Anat May be a goof ball sometimes and may get into trouble but when times call for it she can be very respectful. She knows her place and others swell, she knows she needs to respect her elders and others higher ranking than her. She also knows that she should respect younger ones and even her siblings but something like that is to hard for her, at least now at this age. Though she may be a crazy girl she is very kind and respectful to others.
Trustworthy
Anat once again is a little crazy sometimes and may not seem responsible or anything close to it but when it comes to keeping a secret or a primes or making sure something is safe or really anything Anat is a different WOI, she would never tell a lie but that doesn't mean she would tell the truth. Anat Would die before she told something untrue about someone or a promise she swore to keep. She is a very trust worth WOI and is a good WOI to talk to, she is not only trustworthy but a very good listener and comforter.
Devious
Anat's personality tends to jump around, she may be thought of as moody, but yes she tends to be a sneaky devious kind of WOI, quite carless too. She gets into trouble by this trait and maybe a few fights she could avoid without it. She can't help it though. When she is mad in anyway she tends to do this become rude and act like a brave although it may not last for a while but its still very annoying while it lasts. Anat tries to avoid this state of mind, but it may stick with her forever.
Outgoing
Anat has no problem walking up to others starting and keeping conversations, Anat doesn't have much trouble making friends, even with the shyest WOIs. Anat loves to be around others, she does this by being outgoing, making others see how open and good she can be. She keeps friends this way, being the best she can for others Anat loves her friends and loves to always have more. She is one who may become annoying this way though , but she tries not to and rarely does. But over all Anat is just a good WOI who has a happy heart.



It was a cold crisp morning. It made me shiver as I woke slowly from my sound sleep. I could see my brother standing near the entrance he seemed excited but he didn't wake me or anyone. I turned my head to my parents they were still asleep wrapped around each other and my other sister and brother. I sighed I knew I could never go back to sleep no after I was awake. I stood and walked over to him. " why are you awake?"
"Why are you?" He said but I knew he really didn't care he turned his attention quickly back to whatever he was looking at. "Look it snowed!" He said with an en excited voice.
I smiled. "Oh yea." I said. I didn't realize that this would be my first time ever in the snow. " Have you ever been in snow before?" I asked looking out into the glittery white world of Isket that looked so different the day before.
"No." He answered. "But I have always wanted too."
"Me too." I said. Something in me wanted to run out of our cave and straight in the snow. "Want to go feel it?" I asked
"Yes!" He shouted but then lowered his voice as my brother rolled over behind us. "But we can't." He said quietly.
"Why?" I asked looking over to him. He looked back at me. i know he didn't have a answer I wouldn't argue with and he knew it too. He shrugged. "Lets just do it!" I said. He smiled.
"Alright." There was a long pause so I guess to break the silence he whispered. "Race you."
Now I would never turn down a race "Your on." I exclaimed and we were off racing through the echoey walls of the caves of isket. We skated to the entrance and stopped short. Though after a moment I built up my courage and dove down. I was suddenly swallowed by the freezing white blanket as I blindly tumbled down the mountain you wouldn't understand how long it was unless you were rolling down it. I finally came to a smashing stop as I hit the snow at the bottom of our mountain. I was compltely submerged.
"Well that was graceful." I heard my brother mock from the entrance. I leaped up. Seeing light then snow. I did this a few times laughing. This was more fun than anything I could have imagined. I stared up at my brother.
"Get down here!" I called. And he did, his must have been more grace full than mine because by the time he got to the bottom he could still see straigt. I leaped in and out as did he untill the snow was thicker and we weren't falling through. I was able to walk on the icy surface and look around to see the glittering settings that were layed out before my eyes I felt like a leader and this was my world. I wished I was Rayo for a moment but only for that. I looked around seeing other pups doing the same playing in the snow rolling and tumbling around. The summer borne pups may have been older but they knew just as much as me when it came to snow. I saw a brown colored pup leap towards us through the snow. She was older than me but only by a few months.
"Hello." She greeted us.
"Hi!" I shot back my outgoing nature told me she must be friendly. She smiled.
"Have either of you seen snow before?" She asked. I shook my head looking once more across the now white world. "Me either." She said. She smiled again. "My name is Namine" She said.
"Im Anat." I replyed with a smile. Her smile seemed to dissaper though.
"I don't want to be rude but aren't you young to be alone out here?" I nodded and giggled the feeling of being free was fun especially when you arent supost to. "Youll freeze. You best go back in now untill later." She said I knew she only wanted me to be safe but I didn't want to be.
"And miss all of this?" I said. "No I am nice and warm." I shook some of the remaining snow from my colored fur. I felt a little warmer without it slowly melting and freezing my small body. "I want to do somthing though, this isnt enough to just see it. just see this."
"Why?" Namine asked me.
"I want to see more."
"I know what you mean the adventure in you has built up. the rising in the fact of the new substance makes you want to learn more and veiw more. I want to aswell but do you imagine that we should. I don't think it could possibly could be." I haddent understood half the words that came out of her mouth but for some reason they all made out the picture in my head of. Yea lets do something. I want to see it all too.
"Lets go." I say looking up into her face. She was a small sleek WOI she seemed to be built more for speed and agility than fighting. But I didn't imagine why this would matter or why I even noticed. She looked down at me I expected her to be less surprised than she had looked.
"it isn't like me to be persuaded by a young one but I wouldn't mind seeing the world from the winter view. But you must stay close to me don't leave my side either of you. and we will not stray far from the mountain it must always be in view. Do you understand."
I was about to say I guess but I changed it "Yea I do." I did understand at least that I needed to stay near her. We began walking my feet feeling cold against the frozen snow beneath my feet. My brother had ran back home sometime when I was talking to Naminé I didn't really care were he went we were only right next to the mountain he wouldn't go far. So we walked. If I had known something else about Naminé it might have helped but I didn't and thus our troubles began.
We walked for a while admiring the beautiful sense. I smiled. "How far did we come?" Naminé asked. I don't know. She turned and looked around. "We-we-were's the mountain?"
"Hmm?" I was confused. "Right there." She looked confused.
"You will need to be the one to get us back. I forgot to tell you. I have bad eye sight. I cant see well.I can barley see the blur of brownish color." she told me.
"What!" I shouted. "I am so bad with direction!" I sighed.
"I am sorry. Let us go back now. so nothing bad may happen." She said and we began to walk. I followed behind her walking through the scattered trees.
"Let me see your eyes." I said and she turned her head to me as we kept walking. "there pretty though." I said. "whats wrong with them."
She smiled. "I am not completely sure. it happened when I was younger. I was in a stampede of the same animals we hunt. Ever since then I have had bad eye sight although I have recovered in every other way. But really I cant see more than a few paws in front of me."
"Wow, that must have been scary." I said trying to imagine. She turned her head away from me and I looked ahead once again too.
Both of us stood frozen, as still and cold as the land around us. A Krondor stood in front of us. Not far but he hadn't noticed. I held my breath and so did Naminé. Under her breath, she whispered to me. "Slowly...." Long pause as to make it blend in with the noise beneath the foot steps of the beats that dwarfed both of us. "We need to got out of sight. quiet." She was very quiet as she spoke but the firmness in her voice was like that of a trees bark. I was almost more scared to disobey her, than I was of the krondor. We moved slightly to the side. The Krondor though stepped on a stick not even one of us and it turned saw us half in sight. My heart almost exploded. "Run." She said. She beat charged us I did as she said. I looked back she was running a different way. Smart. tricking it. it look the beast a second to think of which one to go after. It chose Naminé I almost wish it hadn't. Her sleek agile body built for speed, she raced out of the way of the krondor. I struggled in the snow. I saw now why Naminé had brought the attention to her and not me. I struggled until I got on firmer frozen ground. I was able to run faster but not nearly as fast as the racing animals in front of me. Naminé ran past me in a way that the Krondor wouldn't notice me. "Go home. I can e-" She had no tome to finish but I had no chose to listen. I ran for it. reaching the mountains I climbed to my waking panic family. "Were where you!?" My mothers voice like soft poison. She nuzzled me. "Naminé and me went into the woods. Krondor. She need. help-" I took panting breaths between my words but my mother and father wasted no time. They had warned another warrior and were off withing seconds. I sat panting trying to catch my breath.
The time past slow. seconds like minutes, minutes like hours and it felt like an eternity before I finally saw my mother and father and Naminé.
I had never felt more relived. "What happened?" I asked her.
She explained to me the dramatic fight sense of the brave warriors. I realized that Naminé and me had also been brave warriors and one day we both could be like our parents. One of the brave warriors of Isket.

[Vargulf]

Username: She Wolf Alpha
Pup number: 4
Pup's name: Amasis (means Child Of The Moon, Egyptian)
Personality: Amasis is the type that has an in between personality, he's not mean nor nice, he is bold, tenacious, though he is young he has a heart of a warrior, he stands for what he believes in and admits when he is wrong
IN BETWEEN:
Amasis is well balanced when it comes to his emotions and his feelings towards those he has contacts with. Though he maybe ignorant at the moment but he will make up for it over time. He never exceeds too much emotion but he surely never gives less.

BOLD:
Amasis as young as he is, is already showing signs that he is willing to test the boundaries and limits. This might include stepping on some toes, if Amasis feels that it's for a just cause or if it's right in his eyes, no matter the consequences he would speak his mind. He sees Isket as a challenge and one that he wants to embrace. He will surely challenge his mother's patients as he will always try to adventure outside his den.

Tenacious:
Amasis is relentless which is a plus when it comes to battle but this can also cripple him if he is not careful. As he grows he has to learn to balance this as much as anything else or it might hinder him from building a strong relationship with his pack and females. Though if he makes an enemy this only makes him determined to see his foe fall to his feet. When it comes to battle he won't relent until the deed has been conquered.

Strong:
Amasis is strong physically and mentally but doesn't know it yet, but with age he will embrace his inner strength. His will grows along with this as he must learn where his boundaries lye when applying his strengths to everyday struggles and survival.

Heart Of A Warrior:
This comes into play with every day life as he defends his home, and his family, and friends. Amasis never backs down from a fight as he thinks this will only make him a better fighter, as Isket feeds him several conquests throughout his life time. He trains relentlessly every morning, knowing the importance that he will have a responsibility to his pack and to his rank. Amasis wants to lead by example to the next younger generation of pups so they too will know that they should carry the pride of their race as well for their very existence.

Story/Histoy: Amasis woke before the sun completely rose over the horizon not knowing that no one else was awake. He gently backed away from his mother's warm coat as he stretched his tiny back, as he did so he noticed the den's entrance. Amasis's ivy green eyes glistened with curiosity as he thought to himself, I wonder what's out there?He treaded lightly as he moved closer to the entrance of the den, and for the very first time Amasis was about to experience something that he never felt before. His fur moved in every which way as it flowed and caressed his body with such fluidity, he closed his eyes as the winds of Isket clasped around him with a soft velocity. Amasis didn't know that this land with such beauty was indeed very dangerous. As Amasis was starting to get a subtle feeling in his soul as he took in his first experience, but that was cut short as his mother nabbed him up by the scruff. Hey what's the big idea mom I wasn't doing anything wrong! He tussled and wriggled hoping to break her grip from him. As Mizuki place him down she scolded him telling him that it wasn't safe to wonder outside of the den, and that it was best to stay at her side. Amasis retorted with a scowl as he tried to sound brave to his mother, I'm not afraid of anything! He puffed his chest out as he closed his eyes, Jex chuckled a little as he admired his son's blissful ignorance. He could see that his son truly believed in his bravery, though Jex didn't know whether to be worried for his young pup, or embrace that it would help him in the long run. Mizuki saw the worry on his face and gave him a reassuring lick on the face letting him know that everything at the moment was going to be fine.

Amasis soon forgot about the outside world and started to play with his siblings, Jex and Mizuki soon heard quarreling from the young ones, Hey get off me...ow stop Amasis. Jex seen that his son was standing over his sister with a mouth full of fur, he gave a firm fatherly look to let go of her, though he knew it was crucial that they became strong over the course of their lives in order to survive the Chimerial Kronadors. Amasis let go quickly as he was afraid of what Jex might do if he didn't, as he started to lower his head something glimmering in the corner of their den caught his eye. He carefully walked up to the mysterious shining object that happened to be hanging on some stalagmites, that seem to be strategically placed as if this part of the cave knew it was going to serve a purpose. Amasis studied the strangely shaped metal wondering why it was here, Father? What is this? Zex looked away from his mate and over to his young pup, Why Amasis that is my Armor...your mother wasn't lying when she said Isket was dangerous. See son there is something out there that hunts us and are determined to rule these lands, so it is our duty to protect this land and our kind. Amasis was intrigued with his father's words and sat quiet before saying out in excitement, WOW! do I get armor too father? Why...yes...but it's something that you don't take lightly my little one it is a journey that is physically and mentally challenging, it tests your very soul. You have to be strong my little one, in your body and in your heart, but at this moment that is far off. He smiled at him and gave him a quick lick on the cheek. Mizuki then laid down and the pups came running hoping to catch some dinner, Amasis please come get something to eat...little pups who don't eat won't grow into strong warriors. That night his father took off after getting word of Kronadors were in the area, Amasis was the only one who woke when he happen to hear his mother and father talking, Be careful Jex... I will Mizuki, I should be home shortly. Mizuki watched Jex take off from the den entrance knowing that he will be just fine, she then turned to her new pups and wrapped her long body around them as she encircled them with her warmth. Amasis was still and quiet as a church mouse as he felt his mother's paws touch his behind, he was hoping that Mizuki would fall asleep soon, as the anticipation grew inside him as if the howling of the wind was calling him out of the den. Though he drifted off to sleep dreaming that he too was fighting off Kronadors and that he had the strongest armor deep from Isket's rocks. He dreamt that he was tough and mentally strong just like his father told him he had to be, this woke his mother as he let out a little growl and wriggled his little legs as if he was running in his sleep. Mizuki knew she had something special, and she softly chuckled at her dreaming pup, she then nuzzled him as she whispered, You are surely my little warrior. Soon Jex returned as he smiled knowing that he had gained so much more and he joined his new family after he removed his armor, We surely have a treasure more valuable than all the land in Isket don't we? I would have to agree with you Jex. She smiled and all that was left was the wind howling in the mouth of their den. (Hope you don't mind that Jex and Mizuki say a few words, I hope I didn't offend anyone, it's only intended to make the story flow. All charries belong to their rightful owners.)

Username:♥~ZemaIon~♥
Pup number:3
Pup's name: Arríe
Personality: (Please excuse my awful grammar)Fearless. Arríe is probably one of the most fearless wolves ever. She isn't afraid of fighting anything bigger then her. She is very brave, smart and clever. She can also be very sneaky. Arríe could get passed anyone without making a noisy mistake. Her tricks are very clever. Everything she does of a trick, is quiet and clever. Also, Arríe can be a bit mean. If you get on her nerves, her temper will lash out badly. Once she is angry, she will possibly snap your bones in a few seconds. She is also a serious type of WOI, she doesn't joke around about serious things like others do. She understands that serious things are not to joke about, she knows better then to do that. Even though she is a pup, she understands adult like things *only some!* She knows which is right and which is wrong, which is good or which is evil. She knows more things like that. Her fighting skills as a pup is pretty good, she knows alot of nice techniques already. She won't even back down on a fight, no matter what.
Story/Histoy: Arrie was born to her parents Jex and Mizuki, they were great parents to her. Soon later, she grew up just a little and was curious about the outside things. Arrie wandered off, away from her family, so she could see what everything was like. Somebody came up to her and told her that she needed to go back home. Arrie refused, saying "i want to see what its like around you warriors. " The wolf stared at her and explained things about the WOIs, Arrie loved hearing the story. She listened the whole two hours of it. "So, i am a Warrior of Iztek(?)?" the young and curious wolf asked. The adult wolf nodded to her "yes you are." the wolf said, smiling down at her. (sorry. i dont have a smart grammer and i have huge writers block)

-drop out-

[lemondropkitten]

Username:
lemondropkitten

Pup number:
#4

Pup's name:
Zike.
I don't know really why I chose this name. I guess I just liked how it sounded, and I thought it fit the little guy quite well. He just seemed like a Zike to me, and it was the first name I thought of when I saw him.

Nicknames:
Zi
Zikers
Zikey

Weight:
Pup weight; Zike, being a rather small pup, weighed 19 pounds at 3 months
Adult weight; Zike was still rather small when he was an adult, weighing between 65 and 70 pounds

Personality:
Territorial.
Zike is very territorial. If even a single bird lands near him when he's in his "territory", he lunges at it, no mattered how big or small it is. The same goes for rabbits and squirrels and other creatures like that.

Studders.
Zike studders when he talks, as an example, when he talks, he talks like this, "H-h-hello, I'm Z-Zike"

Loyal.
Zike is very loyal. To his friends, family, and pack. Always being loyal has it's down sides, but not to Zike. He finds being loyal the only way to live.

Serious.
Zike is often called "too serious", though he does not think is. He simply thinks himself as... attentive.

Often unfriendly.
Zike is not very friendly, since he prefers not to talk much. Though he always has a special smiles reserved for the younger WoIs in the pack.

Quiet.
Zike is quite a quiet WoI. Due to his studdering, he finds it almost embarrassing to talk, and so has become a quiet WoI, who only talks when he has to.

All in all, Zike is a territorial, studdering, loyal, serious, often unfriendly, and quiet WoI. He is kind of an odd WoI, who has some quirks and also a passion for hunting. The things he is defiantly not is disloyal, friendly, talkative, and if you were to call him those things you would would be lying. Though he is quiet, he has a heart of gold and is quite protective of his family, and would do almost anything for them.

Likes:
Hunting
Meat
Being alone
The color blue
Trees
Quiet
The low rumble of thunder in the distance
Sunsets
Being loyal

Dislikes:
Birds
Snow
Winter
The fact that studders when he talks
Mean WoI
Disloyal WoI

Why I want him:
I've been stalking WoI for a while now, tried for one once, but I've never seen one I truly, truly loved. When I saw this one, I immediately truly loved him. His colors, his design, everything about him in perfect, and so of course I had to try for him. Though this is only my second time trying for a WoI, I do love them and would love to have one. I would draw him a lot and sketch him in my sketchbook, and also put him in my signature from time to time. He would also have a special thread all to himself. He would not be left to gather dust, and I would feel very honored to own him. I just love him so much, and his design is simple, yet beautiful and complex in it's own way. He, in my mind, is one of the most gorgeous WoI ever. Thank you for the chance at getting him

Story/History:

Zike could see his breath in the cool air. The blue grass was covered up by snow, and more flakes floated lazy down. One landed on Zike's nose and he sneezed. He was alone at the moment, with no other WoI in sight. He smiled to himself. He was alone. Exactly where he wanted to be, under one of the many trees around him, though it gave him little protection, as the branches were quite bare.

It was his first winter, and it began snowing earlier that day. Fascinate by the small white flakes, Zike had wandered off. He was smaller then his siblings, and due to his studdering, he was often teased by them. The trees was the only place he felt truly relaxed.

Zike flopped down onto the snow under a tree, and was surprised by how cold and wet snow was. Narrowing his eyes at the snow, he growled at it as if it was an intruder in his territory. Suddenly, his ears pricked up and he turned around to see a small bird. "S-Shoo b-bird! S-Shoo!" He growled. He lunged at the bird, and it chirped as he closed his jaws around it.

Zike, who wasn't really hungry, dropped the bird on the snow. The bird chirped and flew away from the WoI who had almost eaten it. Sighing, Zike created a dip in the snow and lay his head on his paws. He slowly drifted off to sleep, laying his ears back at the wind rustling through the trees.

---

Zike woke up to find the freezing cold wind whipping at his fur. Snow hit his face, and he felt like someone was throwing pebbles at him. How did I sleep through this? He wondered, then realized the dip in the snow had been protecting him from the harsh winds. "W-well, s-snow, I d-don't t-think w-we're g-g-going to g-get a-along!" Zike growled. Little did he know this was a start to an adventure.

Shivering from the cold, Zike trudged through he wind and snow. Night had quickly fallen, making the snow sparkle from it's light, though Zike didn't notice. It had turned into a real snowstorm, and he was hungry and tired. I wish I had eaten that bird... Zike thought, shaking his head as a snowflake landed on his eye. Head down, wet and cold, barely able to see a foot in front of him, Zike decided to find a place to rest.

---

Zike's first winter was not going well. He had found a place to rest, near a frozen creek where there was some large rocks. Zike slid under one, and found the blue grass under did not have any snow on it. Zike licked his sore paws, and they lay his head on the grass. How can I be loyal when I don't even know where I am? Zike thought, mad at himself for being caught in the snowstorm.

---

Zike's parents were back at the den, wondering where there son is. "He's probably fine. You know Zike, he's probably mad at himself for being caught in the storm. I'm sure he'll be back by tomorrow." Zike's father said. Zike's mother just sighed. Her other pups were safe, but where was Zike? She was worried about her son. He often vanished during the day, just to be alone for a little while, but never for this long. Zike's father, seeing his mate was distressed, went over to her. "Mizuki." He said, nudging her. "He'll be fine, we can go looking for him tomorrow" Zike's father said. "I honestly hope he's okay, Jex. I hope..." Zike's mother trailed off as the wind whistled louder outside.

"You know what Zike always says, never give up, even in the worst situations." Zike's father said. Zike's mother nodded. "We can go look for him tomorrow." Zike's father said again. "You know, when I had these pups, I never intended for any of them to be stuck in a snowstorm" Zike's mother said, rather jokingly. "You're right, though, knowing Zike, he'll probably find his way back here himself." Zike's mother added. Luxyrus, however, who had been sitting near the entrance of the den, had slipped out when no one was looking to look for Zike.

---

It had gotten colder. Zike was shivering now, and the wind had shifted so now the snow was blowing under the rock. Zike thought to himself, if I don't find somewhere else to rest soon, I'm going to turn into a very cold, not very happy icicle. Zike's paws were still sore, and he hoped they weren't frost bitten. He already studdered when he talked, he didn't need to limp when he walked!

Zike was drifting off to sleep when he heard someone. Ears pricked as far forward as they could go, Zike listed. "Zike! Are you here? Zike!" The voice was soothing and almost sounded like sighing. Lux. "O-Over h-here!" Zike called, jumping to his paws and forcing his way into the wind and snow. He felt like he was going to blow away when he spotted Lux coming towards him.

"Where have you been?" Luxyrus asked as she nudged Zike over to. Zike just looked at Lux, not feeling like talking. He was hungry and cold and still shivering as the wind blow his fur the wrong way, so it looked all spiked. "You're fur looks pretty funny." Lux said. Zike just rolled his eyes. Luxyrus led the way to a waterfall, which was pretty much frozen, though offered a good shelter. They lay down under the sheltered area, and Zike tried to curl his tail around him, but it wasn't that long and only reached halfway along his belly. Lux, who had a long, fluffy tail, curled it around Zike. The warmth from her tail seeped through his fur, and he stopped shiver. "T-Thanks." He said, laying his head on his paws. "No problem." Lux said, also laying her head on her paws.

"L-Lux? W-Why d-did you c-come l-l-look f-for m-me?" Zike asked. Luxyrus shrugged. "I didn't want you to be out in the cold alone. You're still just a pup." She said. "W-Well, t-t-thanks." Zike said. "No problem." Lux said.

---

"Jex! Wake up! We have to go look for our son." Mizuki said, nudging Jex. "Hmmm..." Jex mumbled, getting to his paws. They left the den and headed out into the cold to look for their son. The second Jex put his paw on the snow, he lifted up and was surprised to see a trickle of blood. He dug through the snow until he found a sharp piece of armor. "Who's is this?" He said, picking it up. "Oh! Sorry, Jex!" A WoI said, darting over and taking the piece of armor. Jex rolled his eyes, but he was worried about his son. He knew Luxyrus had gone out to look for Zike, and he hoped she was okay too.

There was no pawprints to track. No sign of Lux or Zike. Just snow. Snow. And more snow. "How will we find them in this snow?" Mizuki cried. "No idea. But I have a feeling their going to find us! You could hear us all the way across the territory!" Jex said, noting how much noise they were making as they trudged trough the snow. Suddenly, more flakes began to fall. "Great." Mizuki said, letting out an exasperated sigh. "Look to the bright side, Mizuki. There's breakfast!" Jex said, pointing to a white hare easily jumping through the snow.

"We can't stop to eat!" Mizuki gasped. "Yes we can. I'm sure Lux and Zike are in no danger." Jex said, leaping forward and, snagging the rabbit almost at once, killed it with a single, swift bite. He grinned and trotted back to Mizuki. "You look hungry." He said, taking a bite of hare. "I am no-" Mizuki started, but was cut off by her growling stomach. Without a word, Mizuki bent her head and started eating.

---

Zike blinked open his eyes and stretched. It took him a minute to realize where he was though. Ears pricked forward, he looked around groggily. Then he remembered. The snowstorm. Next to him, Lux was already awake. "Hungry?" She said. Zike nodded and got to his paws. "L-Let m-me h-h-hunt." He said, and started to pad away. His ears pricked forward, listening for any sounds. He suddenly heard the sound of a rodent moving through the snow. He held still, and then pounced headfirst into the snow like foxes do.

He caught the rodent, a mole, and brought it over to Luxyrus. Dropping it at her paws, Zike went back to look for more prey, and he eventually caught a mouse for himself. He sat down next to Lux and they both ate, though it wasn't a very filling meal. "Looks like that's all we are going to get. Want me to look for a rabbit or something?" Lux asked. "N-No, w-we h-h-have to g-get b-back." Zike said, shaking his head.

"Okay. Let's go then." Luxyrus yawned and stretched, and then got to her paws, shaking snow off her long tail. Zike shook snow off his own tail, and they started on their way back to the den. Zike was quiet... well, he was always quiet, but quieter then usual. Lux looked over at him. "Mad at you're self?" She said. Zike paused, claws digging into the snow. "Y-Yes." He said, and then continued walking.

They soon came to a wide, deep, frozen creek. "Now, where did this thing come from!" Lux gasped. "R-Remember? T-This u-used to b-be a d-deep d-dip in t-the g-ground. I-It f-filled w-with w-water d-during t-that flood w-we h-had in s-summer, a-and n-now it's a c-creek." Zike said. "Geez, you know more about this territory then I do!" Luxyrus said, shaking her head. "I'll see if the ice is strong enough to hold." Lux stepped onto the ice, and it didn't crack. The snow covering the ice made it easier to walk on, and Lux soon made it to the other side.

Zike stepped gently onto the ice and was soon over the creek, too. But then they came to another dilemma. A thick pine tree forest. "How in the world are we going to find out way through that?" Luxyrus sighed. "N-Never g-give up, e-even in t-the w-worst s-situations." Zike said. "Oh, stop quoting you're self!" Lux said. "We are never going to get to the den at this rate." Lux sniffed at the snow and then looked up into the forest. "W-Well, l-lets g-go." Zike said, tail brushing lightly against the snow, he headed into the forest.

---

"Jex, will we ever find them? What if they're injured? Or got frostbite? Or are in danger? Or-" Mizuki was cut off by Jex. "I'm sure they're fine." He said in a soothing voice, though he was worried. It had taken longer then he expected to find them. It was an hour and a half after they had finished eating, and Mizuki and Jex were once again trudging through the snow to look for they're son and Luxyrus.

Mizuki was suddenly sent into shivering as the wind whipped at her. "Shoot, more snow." She said, shivering and flicking her tail. Jex nodded. "We should find some shelter." He said, pointing to a frozen waterfall that would provide shelter. Mizuki nodded and they headed towards the shelter. They then settled down under it, and Jex yawned as he lay his head on his paws. "You think we will find them?" Mizuki said quietly. "Of course." Jex said, already half asleep. It was still day, but he was tired. "Hmmm..." Mizuki mumbled, putting her own head on her paws. She herself soon started to drift asleep, and it had gotten increasingly darker since the snow clouds had covered up the sun.

---

"Ow! Ouch!" Luxyrus cried as more pine needles poked at her. Zike turned around and started laughing. She had pine needle stuck in the fur around her cheeks, making her look like she had dark green whiskers. She also had the pine needles stuck in her tail fur, while Zike somehow managed to avoid the pine needles. "Stop laughing!" Lux said, flicking her tail in annoyance. "S-Sorry! I c-can't h-h-help i-it!" He said, still laughing. Lux rolled her eyes. "It's not that funny. These things hurt like heck." She said, tugging out her 'pine whiskers' with on of her paws. Zike managed to stifle his laughing to giggles. "You're usually so quiet and... well... gloomy. Now, we are stuck in a pine tree forest, and all you can do is laugh!" Luxyrus said. "H-Haha, g-g-guess y-you're ri-right." Zike said, still giggling.

"I'm exhausted!" Lux said, flopping down under a pine tree. "A-A-And hun-hungry." Zike said, crawling under the pine tree next to Luxyrus. Zike couldn't rest. He wanted to get back to the den and that oh-so-familiar territory. He could hear the wind blowing through the pine trees, and the very cold snow made him shiver. If his mother and father had been out looking for them in this weather... well, if they hadn't found shelter, they could get extremely cold, or get frostbite, or... "L-Lux? W-Wake u-u-up." He said, nudging Luxyrus. She blinked open her eyes, yawned, and got to her paws. "What?" She said, stretching. "W-We have t-to f-find o-our w-w-way b-back." Zike said. "Hmmm..." Luxyrus said, and so the two set off once again.

The snow had turned into small bits of hail, and it hurt as it hit Zike and Lux. "If we had stayed under the pine tree..." Lux sighed. Zike sighed. They had been out in the snow for at least an hour, maybe more. They had trudged through the pine forest until they had come out of it, and all protection was gone. Zike's face stung from the hail, and he felt like someone was throwing rocks at his face. "Ow. Ow!" Luxyrus said as the hail came down harder. "Zike, we should have stayed in the forest! This is crazy!" She said.

---

Jex's ears pricked up suddenly. "What was that?" He said. Cocking his head to one side. "I heard it too! It sounded like Lux!" Mizuki cried. Jex suddenly saw two shapes trudging through the snow. "Zike! Luxyrus!" He cried, dashing towards them. "D-Dad!" Zike said. "Jex!" Lux said. Mizuki walked over and gave her son a lick on the head, and he flattened his ears. "M-Mom!" He said, shrugging away. Mizuki rolled her eyes and the four started heading back to the den.

---

Zike didn't know how tired he was until the warmth of the den wrapped around his. He ate a hare, and then lay down to sleep. Outside, the snow was twirling through the air and making the branches of the trees rattle. Head on paws, Zike let out a contented sigh and drifted off to the sleep. "What an adventure." Lux said as she passed him. "I-I w-would h-hardly c-call it a-an a-adventure." Zike muttered sleepily.

Armour Design:


While drawing his armor, I was looking at pages of my book about Egypt, and so I based his armor on what I saw in that book. The colors are not random, in my book there was some color pictures of Egyptian armor and stuff, and so I based the colors on that. The colors are the following;

Blue
Red
Gold
Reddish brown
Black

Pup number:

Pup's name:

Nike
Named after the war god and inspired by Nike's quote "Just do it" which was the inspiration for me to chose this name. The name is a representation of faith and courage. It describes him perfectly based on his personality.

Personality:

His personality is a little like mine. Nike is quiet around people he doesn't know, but loves having a good laugh and doing silly/random stuff with his close friends. The spotlight is not his place, and he'd rather follow than being the leader. He is happy most of the time, and tries not to get mad, but when that happens, he'd rather not talk until the anger is gone. He thinks hating someone is useless, though he can be resentful. Nike always tries to see the positive side of everything, and is optimistic most of the time, though he can be highly negative and sarcastic on a bad day. He is lazy and likes to sleep and daydream a lot.

Story/History:

I will be doing both, but it is a WiP.

Armour Design:

Nike's armour design is based off of this (third one). The tightly woven metal is heavy, but more protective than others because of its well thought out and intricate design. This armor will give Nike extra protection when he needs it most.
