Name:Hanako-Japanese for "Flower Child"

Short story:
I walked out of the red moutains that felled my packs dens. The warm morning sun greeted me when i stepped out into the light. I smiled up at the sun and continued onward. I wanted to go to the waterfalls for a small swim before i ate with a couple of friends. I walked through the blue glistining grass that softly tickled my feet. In the distance i saw a figure move towards me. As it got closer i saw it was only Dax his tanish fur was shining in the sunlight. As he walked by, he smiled brightly at me and i smiled shyly back before turning my head away. 'Man i too shy!' i complaimed to myself. But it wasn't new. Ive been this way since i was small. I sighed deeply my head dropped but i pushed that thought aside and looked forward again. I soon got bored of walking and drifted into a day dream. I was runing through the land on my way to battle a kronador. I had gleaming silver armor on with a blue dew drop forhead necklace on my forhead. A confediant smirk was on my face. On both sides of my was the mighty warrior Amanra in her beatiful armor and on the other Dax with his silver armor.. They gave me an encoraging smile and we all continued on. Then a Kronador with a light green body, and yellow eyes appeared and nocked Amanra aside with its huge head. I quickly took action and lunged up biting into the kronador's neck. It began to swing its head violently trying to get me off. I saw Dax quickly body slam the creature making the kronador fall to the ground. And I quickly jumped away from the creature as it fell. It stood up angerly and glared at Dax and myself. I took a glance towards Amanra, she stood a little wobbably but was ok. I turned my head back to the Kronador and bravely lunged at it's neck again. The fight continued onward but there had to be a winner. I took the final blow and sliced its throat. It died almost instantly and i hovered over the beast's body smiling in victory.
Dax and Armanda smiled up at me "Get job Hanako" they both said cheerfully. I was about to say something back but suddenly the day dream disapeared and reality hit me. Well actually a tree did. I felt a sharp pain come on my head and i fell to the ground.
I quickly started rubbing my head with my paws "ow,ow,ow,ow!" I said and after a minute the pain softened. I looked up and saw a tree. Aparantly I had been so caught up in my day dream that i hadn't noticed when i had drifted off cource. I picked myself up, the pain now hardly anything. I emrassingly laughed somewhat and quickly took off on the right cource again. Well i hadn't gotten far since i could see the waterfall up ahead. But i thought of what my day dream was about. Being a get warrior? 'yeah right I don't even have a mentor yet' I sighed deeply and soon reached the waterfall. I looked up at the beautiful water running down the water fall. I came up to the water and took a drink. And then something began to rustle in some brush nearby. My intincts took place and i stood my ground to whatever was going to appear. But as the figure appeared i dropped down my gaurd. I smiled "Well hello Lyre" i said kindly but a bit shy.
The pup smiled kindly back at me. "So what are you doing here?" she asked me. I sat down a bit relaxed around Lyre
"Nothing much i was just coming for a swim." I saw lyre nod her head and slience fell apon us.
"So.." Lyre started. "Have you thought of who you would like to be mentored to?" It was a good question and one that i have thought alot about. But i had no answer so i shook my head no. "oh well i hope you do find one" Lyre gave me another smile. I nodded my head and are conversation ended. Lyre said her goodbyes and left me probably going home. I sighed again and turned towards the waterfall yet again. I stepped in. The water was cold and it made me recoil my paw back away from the water. But i soon tryed again and this time went fully in. It took some getting use to the cold and then i started diving in and splashing around. It was fun with the water making my entire body feel as light as air. And my mine was clear. But about an hour later i had to get out of the water. i was most likly late to eat and i quickly ran back. After a couple minutes i had finally arrived home. And i could see a figure sitting in front of the enterance to the dens.
I shyly went up to the figure "um... hi Kaliza" Kaliza is a traniee like myself. She is quiet kind and i like her. She's also beautiful with her bluish pelt and her lovly markings.
Kaliza smiled "hi" I didn't say anything after her reply and quickly went into the dens. I went past some tunnels and rooms and soon found the one i wanted to go in. I went in and found a couple warriors and others of the pack eating. None looked up at me as i went in and took some of the left over food. I found myself a spot next to some others and eat while listening to them talk. You know i maybe shy and a day dreamer. but i like avernture and can be brave. And i'll show others that, i'll show everyone that i can be a great warrior someday.
(Its kinda long and i hope the owners of Dax, Amanra, Lyre and Kaliza don't mind me useing there character in my story)

Armor concept

Say 3 things about the WoI Species: - They live in what seems to be a cave but inside is a bunch of tunnels and rooms. The cave is in the side of some red mountains. And there is only one opening to the dens so they can see any attack that would be coming from their enemies
- A custom WoI can breed with another custom. But a normal male can't breed with a custom female. Yet a custom male can breed with a normal female. And lastly a normal male and female can't breed. But the Alpha can breed with anybody.
- Kronadors are horse like lizards that are the enemy of WoI's. There are two territories and the other side fights for the lands. But neither side has been able to overcome the other for generations.

Name:
Hav it's Swedish for ocean/sea
Short story:
I lift my nose and smells. The foest is empty and I'm feeling a bit lonley, I'm not very comfteble with lots of wolfs but I hate beeing all alone. I sight and start walking in a random derection. A small yellow butterfly keeps flying beside me so I start to run, 'cuse the butterfly gives me a strange feeling. The butterfly keeps flying beside me how fast I even run.
I stop running 'cuse it makes me so tierd...I walk a bit further before I have to sit down. So...tierd...I close m eyes and the black night disapear.

Next time I open my eyes the whole forest is light green. Day.
Why did I run away? It was probebly the most stupid thing I've ever done. Life aint always easy, but why'd I always have to run away? This time it was worse than ever. The forest was empty, who ever would whant to get into here more than to get your armour. I've never been here before, but I've heared the stories. Every one says it's horrible and it really is. This butterfly creeps me out. Right, the butterfly. where is that thing? I look around and there it is, in the tree in front of me.
I glare at it for an minuite or so before rising up and smelling. I have no Idea 'bout were I am in this huge forest. I can smell this starnge smell, reminding me of the other wolfs armour so I quickly decide to not walk in that derection.
I start walking in the oposite derektion of the strange smell. The butterfly follows.

The sun goes down and the forest is nlack again. I sight. I glare at the buuterfly.
-"Do you know any way out of here?" I ask, feeling stupid.
The butterfly instantly starts flying to the right. my eyes get wide but I start following it. The butterfly stop sometime, just hanging in the air waiting for me. After some hours I'm extreamly tierd, but the butterfly don't seem to have any intentions of stoping so I just sit down on ground and yawn. The butterfly stops but I don't rise up.
-"I'm tierd." I says as if that would explain everything and lay down.
-"Hm...I need to call you something..." I murmur and open one eye to look at the yellow butterfly."Hmm...Yellow? Ok, ok not Yellow!...What 'bout Olly? I like it..." I look at it for a while."Olly it is." I say some seconds later and close my eyes."Good night, Olly."

When I open my eyes the next morning and see everything in sunlight I immediately recognize the trees around me. I'm just a bit outside the great feild I like to run around on. I sight and rise up.
-"Couldn't you have told me we were close to home?" I say and glare at the butterfly sitting in a tree in front of me.
Olly left of, heading straight home. I sight again and start folowing him. Lots of animals are up colecting food in the warm mornig light. The forest is beutiful and without thinking of it I stop and start daydreaming. I wake up from my dreams when Olly land on my nose.
-"Hey!" I shout and shake my head.Olly flys of and hover in the air in front of me."Hmfp" I say and turn my head in another derection.
After a while I start walking home again.

-"Hav!"
I hear someone shout when I walk over the feild.
-"Huh?" I say and look around.
Lyre stands in front of me 'bout 50 m away.
-"Where have you been?!" She ask.
-"Oh...I..." I stutter and look down.
-Oh, whatever..." She say and starts walking hone."Comimg?"
I can't say how glad I am 'bout that she doesn't ask more. I suppose she's used to me disapearing sometimes.
-"Yeah..!" I says and runs after her.
Olly is stright behind me, even though I don't see him right now.

Name: Duli

Short story: (Written in 'first and third person'.)

I've always felt alone and lost. I live alone...unfortunately, but then again, I've always been extremely shy. I don't mind it though...being alone...no parents. No siblings. It gives me more time to explore and discover new things. I remember one day...I was out on an adventure, acting brave as big wolves passed by me, when I stopped, dead track and sat down, looking up at the sky and started to day-dream, thinking about what it would be like if I wasn't alone all the time.

Duli trekked through the land, looking around at her surroundings, with her long fluffy tail swishing behind her as she trotted along. She stopped and stretched, then continued on. It was a nice day...with the sun shining brightly on her dark coloured pelt, instantly warming her up. She watched some of the warriors, and continued to explore, when she found an abandoned cave. "Huh...that's cool..." Duli mumbled, padding through, sniffing for anything unsafe. Something near the back caught her eye, sparkling in the minimal sunlight that shone through. Was it? It couldn't be! Armour? Yes! It was! Unclaimed armour! Just for her! "This is awesome!" She yipped, grabbing it and pulling it out of the den. It was beautiful, with it's intricate design and silvery gold tint. Duli looked around, then head towards her secret hide out to try the armour on. It fit perfectly. "Wow...it's like it was made for me..." She whispered, and ran around for a while, acting like one of the warriors until she got tired and fell asleep with the glinting, yet filthy armour on.

Art: WIP


Say 3 things about the WoI Species:

1. The WoI's armor was found by the UR´s a long, long time ago.
2. The dens appear to be normal caves, but once inside it's a huge network of rooms and tunnels.
3. Different types:

Big wolf with long ears and a long fluffy tail.
Big wolf with normal ears and a long tail.
Big wolf with noraml ears and a normal (round ended) tail.
Big wolf with short ears and a curled tail.

You should delete me. I got swamped with school and couldn't make art. Sorry ):

Re: Adoptable WOI (Open!)

Postby Vixen_Roe » Mon Nov 21, 2011 2:40 pm

HORRAY!!!!!!!!!! I've been waiting so long!!! Every day I will try my best to add to this form.

I am sorry if it is too long :P I guess I got a lil' carried away XD

Name: Naemia. Pronounced Nay-e-mia

Why the Name?
Last night I sat awake, reading Inheritance (Yay!) and trying to come up with a suitable name for this beauty. I lay there all night... Lexi, no, too common. Selkie, lol no, too sea creature-esque. Hevra, nope-idy dope, just plain wrong. Tae, no, too simple. Laera, no, too much like Lyra from The Golden Compass.... Eventually I fell asleep, still my mind was completely blank, I just couldn't seem to find a suitable name!! I mean, sure, making art and a good story are important, but to me one of the most important part of an adoption form is having a unique and original name. In the morning I still had nothing. Throughout the day I tried out all different names, trying my best. I even got some of my friends to help me out. In French I considered a French name -.- Unfortunately, I kept on thinking of the real meaning of the words and how stupid it would be if someone were called "fly" or "love". I seriously considered using a name from another language, but decided that I wanted my girl to have a "special" name of my own creation.

I logged on this afternoon to see that, just as I had expected, the adoption had been opened while I slept and thousands (okay, maybe that's a minor exaggeration) of entries had come flooding in. I sighed and returned to the front page, goggling at the insane beauty. I copied that form and started typing. I glanced at the form and saw "name" in bold. Mindlessly, without thinking at all, I typed "Naemia" into the allotted space.

After all that, my instinct took over and I came up with a name that I feel fits her like a silken glove.

Why I want Naemia

The first time I set my eyes on Naemia, I was stalking Lilian Nightshade. Yes, it's true, and I still stalk her today (love the new teenie Lilian X)). I had seen many stunning and beautifull designs come from Lilian Nightshade, but it was this one that stopped me in my tracks. Her multi-hued pelt was the first thing that captured my attention, I could literally imagine it shimmering softly in the sun. Next I saw her markings. White, swirled patterns that (as you all know) contrast beautifully with her pelt. The next thing I saw was the writing below. "Will be up for adoption after the W.o.I contest ends" it read. This made me think, a Warrior of Isket contest? Oh man! I missed it! I clicked the link and quickly read through the first post, seeing that the winners had already been announced. Hmm... I though, surely Lilian must have a reason for not opening this beauty for adoption. So I asked. Lilian promtly replied (or was it Runaway Wolf, I forget XD) and told me that the adoption would not open until Ajax and Foalan's adoption had closed and also that a contest winner may still choose her as a prize.

This tore me in two. Should I wait for the pups to be adopted out, though a winner may take her away before I can try for either. Or should I try for one of Foalan and Ajax's gorgeous pups, incase someone did choose Naemia. I decided to wait it out.

Every afternoon I came home from school and raced to the computer to check that no one had snatched her up while I was at school. Eventually, the pup adoption closed (congrats to the winners!) and this adoption opened while I slept.

Anyways, back to the point. As I said earlier, this design really speaks to me. I have quietly sat through many previous W.o.I adoptions, waiting patiently for the perfect one to come along. I knew that you could only ever own one Warrior (except for staff) so I knew I had to get it right. Where some people have tried many times previously for a Warrior, I have waited for Naemia. (I am not saying this in a mean way, or trying to make the judges biased in any way, just saying why I want this Warrior in particular). I will not, however, lie and say that "this is the only one I could ever love." or that "I will never try for another Warrior again." Because, in truth, though I will always hold this girl close to my heart, if I do not win her ther is a chance that I will try again, if I find another.

If I win her I solemly swear that I will not let her go a mnth (rarely ven a fortnight) without new art. I know that Warriors of Isket can not be considered as fursonas, but to me, she will be like a second fursona to me.

I really hope I win her but, in the eventuality that I do not, I will gift all my art (including that I ordered) to the winner, as I strongly dislike people who aren't good sports.

Personality


Shy:

Naemia generally keeps to herself. However she is not a loner and enjoys the company of select companions and friends. Though, Naemia is not an attention seeker. She would far rather lie alone and soak up the aurora of the Isket sun than race through a field with boisterous teenies. Naemia still loves company, just as long as it is not loud, disturbing, company. She loves to day dream about racing through the forest, feeling the wind in her fur and the hot breath of other warriors at her side as they all rush into battle. She is very comfortable around those she knows and can trust, especially her best friend Khantor. Naemia is just rather impartial to meeting new teen Warriors as they can often be too outgoing for her liking. She loves to relax and just lie in the sun, but will always do her duty when needed.

Dutifull:


Naemia holds her leaders in high respect and always does her duty as a Warrior. Though she is not fully grown, she loves to help other Warriors, whether helping a mother laden with young Warriors or collecting prey for the Warriors, Naemia never backs down when she is needed. She has always dreamed of being a Warrior, doing her part to protect her pack. Naemia is rather a favourite as a babysitter as, where other teenies tire of boisterous young Warriors quickly, Naemia rather enjoys watching them playfight and will often join in herself.

Adventurous and brave:


There is nothing Naemia likes better than adventure. Despite her shy nature, Naemia is very adventurous and often wanders off by herself, or with a trusted friend. Naemia is very brave, yet not so brave as to become completely self assured and she still has rational fears. Naemia tries her best to protect her pack and is the first to come running when a guard spots a wandering Kronador that could be a threat to the younger population of Warriors. Naemia loves wandering through the forest, however she will only invite certain comrades out with her. The forest is her favourite place to be as she loves gazing up into the woodland canopies which hang so high above her head. However, Naemia never lets her ventures collide with her duties as a teen Warrior and only wanders when she is certain she is not needed.



A collection of short stories:

Winter's needled bed

There is little Naemia remembers from her troublesome arrival in Isket...

The feel of heavy Winter rain cascading onto her slimy pelt.
Pained groans echoing from beside her.
A crack of thunder and a flash of light.
Then the world turned black.

It was a stormy Winter night when Naemia found herself alone by the riverbed. Her tiny puppy maw opened wide in a desperate cry for warmth and, more importantly, milk. Her pathetic cries rendered soundless by the roars of thunder, little Naemia was alone in unforgiving Southern territory. Winter's deadly fingers grasped at her tender newborn flesh, freezing her blood-soaked pelt and pulling her within an inch of her life.

Eventually the rain ceased and the newly white storm clouds rolled to the West. Once the greasy light of Winter rain had given way to the weak light of the setting sun, Naemia saw the world for the first time.

Whereas most pups first open their eyes to a loving gaze and a warm, rasping tongue, all this tiny Warrior saw was blood. Splattered across the lush grass, the blood of her mother and siblings turned the once blue grass deep crimson.

A few meters away, a blood-soaked brown-gray body lay, slumped into a messy heap. Naemia's cries increased in volume as she tried to wriggle her tiny body towards the carcass.

Her desperate struggles were in vain.

Just before she reached the lifeless body, a burst of river water crumbled the edge where the tattered remains of the once-beautiful Warrior lay, pulling Naemia's dead mother deep into it's watery depths. It was then that Naemia's survival instincs took over and she huddled into the still-warm body of an unlucky sibling, her quacking shudders subsiding into occasional shivers.

Now that she was no longer hypothermic, her pathetic body screamed for milk. Butter Birds danced through the darkening sky above her, free and alive, completely oblivious to the greusome scene below. Naemia's glazed eyes rolled in her head as she whimpered, calling for tjings that none but a mother could provide.

The temprature dropped again as spits of rain began to fall. The Butter Birds flew off to the forests of the North, their silvery wings beating rapidly, leaving Naemia wishing with all of her tiny heart that she too could simply fly away from the terrors around her. But no silvery wings sprouted from her chubby shoulders and she snuggled closer to her dead sibling, whining of a loss too painful to bear.

Soon night's shadowy fingers began to claw their way through Isket, enveloping Naemia's surroundings in utter black. Her soft whimpers grew softer still and, somewhere deep inside, Naemia knew she had no chance of making it through the night alone.

The rushing waters that had laid claim to her mother appeared even more terrifying as darkness contorted the thrashing rapids into slashing, biting monsters. The minute Warrior whined in fear and desperatley wriggled away from the riverbed, the whoosing rain soaking her already-wet fur. The full moon bore down onto her, it's white-orange eye seeming to glare down at Naemia, making her squirm with discomfort. Her small body slowly grew weaker, colder, and Naemia curled herself into a tight ball, the life she barely glimpsed slowly fading before her.

It was then that they found her, three Central Warriors patrolling their borders before midnight, as was the custom. From across the riverbed they saw the ugly massacre that was the birth of Naemia. At first glance, the cruel finger of fate were all they saw as they gazed across from the opposite side of the river, their powerful heads drooping with sadness at the loss of such precious young lives, Southern or not.
"She must have tried to cross the border." one said as it gazed father downstream to where the tattered remains of Naemia's mother lay, caught in the branches of a dead tree.
"There is nothing we can do." another spoke up.
"Best to leave them for their own pack to bury properly." the first, a well-built male, agreed.

Just as they were about to turn back to heir duties, a barely audible squeak sounded from the other side of the river.
"Impossible!" mumbled the third, quickly hushed by the others as all three muscular bodies turned back to gaze across the river.

A moment later their patience was rewarded as another soft squeak was carried across the border.
"Quicly now." The first spoke up, instantly taking control of the situation as he saw his companions frozen with shock. "The river is too dangerous to swim. We will have to cross the fallen log further downstream, one at a time."
The other two Warriors nodded sharply, graciously accepting their new leaders authority. All three Warriors raced down the riverbank to where the rotting log lay, their powerful bodies lenghtening and contracting in perfect, trained unity.

As the Warriors ran to her rescue, Naemia's tiny body began to shudder convulsively as the spark inside her began to falter, death's greedy hands pulling at her viciously. Too weak to look across and see that help was close at hand, her young mind accepted that she was soon to pass into the black void of oblivion that was death.

Three lean bodies skidded to a halt at the edge of the dead tree, their chests almost collapsing as they panted heavily, trying to catch their breath. The third to speak, a lean but muscular young female, was the first to regain her strength and she struggled to spit out words.
"Test..... log.... heavy...... fall..." was all she managed to stammer, but the others must have understood because they nodded vigorously whilst panting. The young female padded up to the mangled tree, it's tattered branches swaying as the current pulled at it. It looks unstable. She thought nervously, her worries confirmed as the trunk jolted, nearly knocking her into the water.

The brave young warrior gathered her nerves and cautiously stepped out onto the log, the Warriors behind her holding their breath as they watched her make her precaurious way along the trunk. Pushing past branches and moving both swiftly and carefully, the light female easily made her way across the log, flattening herself against the trunk when a gust of water threatened to throw her off halfway across. She calmly hopped off at the end of the log, instantly racing to where Naemia lay, about 500 meters upstream.

The second Warrior crossed swiftly and without trouble, racing off after the young female. Finally, the muscular young male stepped onto the fragile log, feeling it rock under his weight. Glad that he had not worn his aromour, he crawled along the log, carefully avoiding patches the others had warned him were weak.

Eventually all three Warriors were, once again, racing along the riverbank. Being faster than the others, the last to cross quickly caught up with the others, and they arrived at the gore-covered scene together. All three Warriors began sniffing the ground, grimacing from the heavy blood-smell as they seardched for a spark of life inamongst the death.

The young female had the sharpest nose and quickly found the crumpled up bundle that was Naemia.
"Over here." She choked out, tears streaming down her face as she realised that the tiny Warrior had ceased to breathe. Not giving up hope,she knelt down beside the pathetic blood-soaked body, licking her fur up the wrong way in a desperate attempt to warm her. The others watched, hope and desperation shining in their eyes as their companion tried to revive the minute Warrior.

They stood there for several minutes, shuffling nervously as the pups tiny form remained unmoving.
"Do you think..." One of them began to speak, quickly cutting off as the female whipped her head around, snarling viciously.
"I can do this." She spat at him, quickly turning back to the tiny bundle she cradled so gently.

With a cough and a soft whimper, Naemia struggled out of the void, whimpering at the massive creatures standing above her as she huddled closer to the warm underbelly of the female Warrior. All three Warriors gasped in surprise and eletion, breaking into happy sobs as the little Warrior tried to suckle from the females belly, whinging in annoyance as she came out with dry lips.
"You did it..." the strong male spoke, awe and gratitude shining through his eyes.
"I guess I did." replied the female, staring lovingly down at Naemia's chubby form.

After a long night and a tiresome fight against death, Naemia finally found her wings in the form of three strong Warriors.


Summer's gentle warmth

Naemia sighed and raised her sun soaked brow to the sun, indulging in the simple pleasure if being alone. Her white markings shimmered like diamonds in the heavy Summer heat, stark and blinding in contrast to the deep blue of her back. The soft blue grass she lay on complimented the multiple blue shades of her long, silky pelt, making her appear even more dazzling. Naemia stretched out her long, lithe forelegs and slowly lowered her heavy lids over her minty blue and green eyes, preparing for a nice, cosy nap.

"Naemia!!" "Naemia, takes us down to the river" "please Naemia PLEEEEEEASE".
A chorus of squeaky voices assailed Naemia's ears and she opened her eyes, softly chuckling to herself. She shook her head slowly as she laughed, amused at the way trouble seemed to always come running straight at her when she wanted nothing more to avoid it. Naemia looked around at the frisky pups around her, playfully swatting one aside when it sank it's dewy fangs into her ear. She rose to her feet, feeling her long leg muscles twinge, stiff from lying still for so long. As Naemia shook the last comforting fingers of drowsiness from her pelt, a dazzling black and white female Warrior came trotting up, looking mildly agitated.
"I'm so sorry Naemia, you know how much the little ones adore you." She said softly, gazing lovingly at her boisterous pups, now locked in a fuzzy ball of limbs and poofy tails.
"Haha, that's alright Foalan, I don't mind. I would love to give you a break." Naemia replied, seeing how tired Foalan looked.
"Thank you Naemia, it really means a lot to me." Foalan replied, licking Naemia gently before turning and trotting back to the camp.
"You be good for Naemia.." Foalan called over her shoulder as she slowly loped away.

"Now, you little rascals." Naemia said, fondly staring down at the six dewy eyed pups as they gazed up at her with clear admiration. "You want to go down to the river??"
"Yes please!!" They all chorused sweetly, fidgeting with anticipation.
"Then you had better keep up!" Naemia said laughingly as she raced towards the river, restricting herself to not go so fast as to lose track of the pups. The six pups ran off after her, giggling and tumbling through the tall grass.
Naemia slowed her pace as the flowing blue-green river came into sight.
"Stay close!" Naemia called as she saw two of the pups race towards the river, skidding and running back to Naemia at her words of warining. Naemia smiled down at the obedient pups, she was glad they were so well-behaved, the river could be dangerous, especially in Summer. Once all the pups had gone back to playing, Naemia chose a shaded spot under a tall tree and lay down, carefully watching the boisterous puppies.

As she lay their, her mind began to wander back to the place where it often did when she was near a river, the night of her birth. She tried desperatley to shut out the horrible images, her torn mother, her dead siblings, and focused instead on the young Warriors as they played. The tiny pups had decorated themselves with what any other teen would see as leaves and grass. But Naemia looked deeper. To the pups, the strands of blue grass were long plates of armour as they fought amongst themselves, taking tuns to play the Kronador.

After half an hour or so of play- fighting amongst themselves, the young Warriors seemed to tire of each other and instead turned to the nearest available prey, Naemia.
Their bright eyes glittered happily as they saw their friend. Naemia was dressed in similar attire, having woven dead leaves from the tree she lay under whilst the pups played. She crouched low to the ground and growled playfully, waiting to see who would strike first.A brave young pup lept at Naemia, it's blue eyes glittering with glee as it squealed a battle cry. It chortled happily as Naemia allowed it to pin her to the ground, it's dewy teeth softly holding her ear.

Soon all the pups joined in and, before she knew what was happening, Naemia became a writhing mass of Warriors.
"Aaah! Mercy! Mercy!" she mock-cried as the pups softly kicked and bit her, their squeals of joy stopping abruptly as they rolled off her, breathless and giggling.
"We're sorry Naemia." They chorused, mischeif still shining in their eyes.
"Haha, that's all right you lil' raggamuffins." Naemia said lovingly as she rolled happily on her back, dislodging the leaves before taking her young charges home.

(I hope it is okay that I included Foalan and her and Ajax's pups in this story, please tell me if it isn't.)


The life of Spring

(( Me and Hollowed have agreed to make Naemia and Khantor close friends should I get her. One of his few trusted friends in fact.  ))
The Life of Spring
Naemia smiled to herself as she paced through the forest, lush with Spring's fresh growth.
The sun basked over her, woven strands of thick emerald grass tickling her muzzle. She marvelled at the way nature managed to create such beauty, and wondered why there were no Butter Birds flitting through the trees. As she walked through the tranquil forest, scattered light reflecting off her multi-hued pelt, Naemia let her mind drift.
"What are you thinking of Naemia?" A husky male voice asked. Glancing in the direction of the utterance she pricked her delicate ears, spotting Khan. The young male padded smoothly towards her, his muscles rippling under his sleek pelt.
"Oh! Hey Khan" Naemia said as she felt his warm pelt brushing up against hers. Naemia smiled happily. Khantor was one of her best friends and she really enjoyed his company, she was surprised that he wasn’t out training. But she was glad to see him all the same.
"I was just thinking about how much I love Spring." Naemia said, gazing up at the trees.
"Oh yeah?" Khantor asked playfully, mischief gleaming in his gaze. Naemia smiled impishly and gently shoved him with her shoulder blade.
"Race you to the gorge!" Naemia shouted as she took off to the North-West.
Khantor shook his head and grinned before taking off after her. The two young Warriors raced through the forest together, kicking up leaf litter that fluttered in the wind.
Khantor laughed as he ran, easily over taking Naemia after a couple of seconds as his thick muscles stretched to their limits, pushing him through the dense foliage. Naemia growled playfully as she saw Khantor sprint past her, her competitiveness taking over as she lengthened her stride in a desperate attempt to catch the speedy young Warrior. They ran through the faltering light of the forest, Khantor leading by a neck. Suddenly a burst of sunlight hit the warriors as they busted out of the vegetation, the hot Spring light momentarily blinding them. Naemia gasped in surprise and, unable to see, tumbled head over heels into Khantor. Khantor grunted in shock as Naemia landed on his chest, winding him.
"Sorry" Naemia giggled as she rolled off him, her long limbs awkwardly folding. Khantor stood up slowly, malice clear in his gaze. A growl rumbled deep in his throat, as he stood glaring straight at Naemia.
"Khan?" She asked nervously, her cerulean optics flickering with shock at his sudden ferocity. Khantor stalked towards her, lips curled back to display his gleaming white fangs. Just as Naemia was about to back away, Khantor leapt over her, snarling viciously.
Naemia gasped in horror as she whipped around to see her comrade wrestling fiercely with a Kronador.
With little time to absorb current happenings, Naemia leapt straight into the fight, incisors bared and claws extended. The gruesome beast roared and swiped at Naemia, it's enormous curved paw tearing through her flank.
Khantor snarled with rage as he leapt at the brute, grabbing its left hind leg in his maw and shaking his head, tearing into the aquamarine flesh. A satisfying snap sounded and the creature shrieked in pain, whipping round to face Khantor. He snarled viciously, the beast's blood dripping ruby red from his maw.
Before the animal had time to throw it's hulking mass at Khantor, he ducked under it's massive head, tearing it's saggy throat from beneath as he slid under it. The creature roared in pain, blood gushing vigorously from it's throat as it dropped to the ground, a wet slapping sound echoing through the hills as it's giant form fell to the ground.
Dead.
Khantor immediately turned to Naemia. His eyes which had but a few moments earlier been narrowed into slits, had now softened into an expression of alarm and concern.
Without even considering his own wounds, he folded onto the ground by her side and desperately began to lick at the three long gashes, gorged just above her underbelly. As he cleaned her wounds, Khantor began to murmur. "Please Naemia, please be okay. Please!" He said sorrowfully.
He sat there for what seemed like hours, until finally, Naemia's eyes began to flutter and she weakly lifted her head.
"Khan?" She mumbled softly. "Shh Naemia, it's alright." He whispered, gently pushing her head back to the ground.
Naemia's minty eyes darted around, widening in surprise as she spotted the blood stained carcass lying behind Khantor.
"We got 'em Khan." She muttered, smiling weakly.
The sepia warrior blinked, glancing down at the fae in surprise at her words. Features lightening he grinned, licking her forehead tenderly.
"Yeah Naemia… we got him."



Trouble will always find you

Naemia raced through the glistening blue grass, not looking back once. She lengthened her stride in a desperate race against fate. The Spring rain pelted onto her fur, making it heavy and dense, but Naemia barely noticed, she had only one thing on her mind: Escape!

As Naemia fled from the terrors that followed close behind, a strange thought occurred to her. Now, as she was most certainly about to come to a gruesome end, she felt more free than ever before. Before Naemia had time to deeply consider the prospect of her fearlessness, a comforting shadow loomed above her. 'The forest!' Naemia thought; hope renewing her strength as she darted into the shadowy recesses of the massive trees.
Sure that she had gained some ground between her and the malicious creatures she ran from, Naemia dipped under a fruitful bush and hid. She crouched low to the ground, panting heavily, her powerful legs weary and shaking. A distinct crunch in the leaf litter near her made Naemia's heart race, and she trembled as her frantically swishing ears desperately tried to pinpoint the sound.

*Crunch...*. 'There!' Naemia thought to herself, estimating the sound to have come from approximately 50 meters away. Naemia slowed her heavy breathing and locked her legs in place; any small movement would betray her location. The gentle spring breeze rustled the dense undergrowth and her thick pelt was dripping with rain. Naemia shivered with cold, her jaws locked shut to prevent her teeth from chattering. Another crunch reverberated in Naemia's ear drums and she began to growl softly.

Naemia slowly began to tense her powerful hind legs and smiled devilishly as she waited to spring her trap.
She stayed there for some time, listening to the quiet noises of the death-bringing creature as it continued it's search. When she was sure that no more than three meters lay between her and the creature, Naemia exploded from the bush, a terrifying war cry tumbling out from between her bared fangs.
The massive male Kronador screamed in surprise as Naemia landed perfectly on it's back, digging in her sharp claws to keep a firm grip. "Don't even think about it." She whispered as the massive scaly beast reared up in an attempt to shake her off.

The Kronador hissed as it landed back on it's feet, pausing for just long enough to allow Naemia time to strike. She threw her head onto the Kronador's neck and bit down, HARD. The creature shrieked and twisted it's head around as it stumbled into a tree. It's massive jaws snapped a bare millimeter away from Naemia's face, hot breath waging onto her. Naemia held on tight with her jaws, pulling up her strong hind legs and raking them across the beast, its tough skin breaking beneath her claws. But the Kronador would not give up. It shook out its thick light blue mane and lashed its long tail, the spike on the end making a snapping sound as it whipped through the air. Naemia growled through her teeth and bit down harder, feeling its thick neck muscles tear satisfyingly. The beast roared and threw its entire weight onto the ground, stunning Naemia. Her jaws slid off it's neck and her body went limp. The Kronador hissed with pleasure as it reared up to give the killing blow. Its claws whistled through the air as it fell down onto her...

A bare second before its ice cold claws pierced her skin, Naemia sprang up with all her force into its exposed belly, her claws raking through it's soft innards like butter. Naemia gasped in surprise as the Kronador fell on top of her and she was completely covered by it. She grunted and squirmed out from under it, racing a hundred or so meters away until she turned to check if it was dead.
The once deadly beast lay on its side, thick blue blood oozing from it's neck and belly. Shocked and exhausted, Naemia flopped down to the ground and let her heavy eyelids fall shut.

As she sank into a deep oblivion, Naemia's last though was: Man! I hope he doesn't have a mate!!

Armour Concepts (by me):

I used TheWolfsGirl90's lines
WIP
As I have said before, one of the reasons I want this W.o.I is because of how unique she is. So, I tried to make her armour unique, getting my inspiration from both a ring I own and the chain mail of ancient warriors I really hope you like it!!!!

Say 3 things about the WoI Species:

- Only Alphas, sub-ordinate leaders and custom Warriors may breed and have pups.
- There is no Autumn (or Fall) in Isket, only Summer, Winter and Spring.
- The Warriors main enemies are the Kronadors, massive, reptile-equine-like creatures with huge fangs and maws designed for tearing flesh. It takes only one fully grown Warrior to take down a Kronador, but can take up to three teenies or young'ins.

P.S I read the entire W.o.I thread and just chose a few points that interested me

Name: Lyranna
Short story:
Hi, my name in Lyranna and I am a WOI. Here is just a short story of my life so far:
When I was a pup, my mother left me in the middle of a snowing forest. I was left for dead. I was wandering the forest for months maybee even years. On day these strange looking things(Humuns) shot at me with a little red thing. I cant remember anything else that day but when I woke up I was in a small cage with hard, cold floor and a funny looking pink thing. I went over to the pink thing, it felt realy nice and soft but I was still cold. It went on like that for years, locked in this tiny, cold cage with my once nice and fluffy now all ripped and non-fluffy blanket. I was fed only once every 2 days and it wasd only the size of my paw.
One day I had just had enough, I started to dig around the small window. Everyday I would dig a bit more off. One day I planed to get out. that day was soon.
Two months digging and digging at the window, I could finelly see some real light. I put all my enegy into digging. 'Dig, dig, dig" I said to myself. The window came off. I was off. The feeling of the wind on my face was increable. I was a lone WOI for months them I found a cave I started to sleep in. Only after I hunted everyday I could smell Somthing like myself. So one day I didnt go hunting. I stayed in my Cave. A WOI came into the entrance. Then another. Three WOI's were now in my cave. "I can still smell her" One said. "So can I" Another said. "Yes, and its even more stronger today!" the last one growled. One of them came over to the furn Lyranna was hiding behind. "SHE'S HERE" one howled to the rest. They took me to there camp.
Right now I am still walking surounded by 7 WOI's who are all taking me back to their "Camp"

Say 3 things about the WoI Species:
There is no Aurtum.
The dens look to be normal caves, but once you are inside it's a huge network of rooms and tunnels.
Each WOi have to go on a mission to find there armour
I am a HoliBomber!

Name:
Kaori

Why This Name:
Kaori means strong, and if you know what she had to go through, it fits perfectly. Both of her parents had died when she was at a young age. She had to go through this and was scared, but she still stayed as strong as she could, with no parents anymore. Kaori had to face seeing all of the others with their mothers and fathers having fun, learning how to hunt and what not. Her sliblings have all passed away too, from a sickness they caught after her parents had died. Everyday she'd see all of the pups play around and play fight, having fun, yet she could not anymore but yearned to.

Why I Want Her:
Like all of the others, I am just so fasinated with WoI. I've only found them possibly a few litters ago though, maybe before that but that was when I actually started following it closely, and I tried twice. The first one I tried for was a pup from Lotis' and Romulous' litter, I tried my hardest for her as I had fallen in love with her, but ended up not winning her. The second one was for Foalan's and Ajax's litter, at first I really liked her, but when it came to writting, I slacked off a bit. I didn't have much motivation, and realized I wasn't very much in love with her and never finnished my form or even got close to. Kaori is just like the first pup I tried for, I actually fell in love with her. At first I was a little bit shaky seeing the competition and what not, but brought myself to try since I couldn't pass the chance for her.

When I saw the picture of her as a little box in the teenies topic, she just popped out, and I just had to click on the picture to see it up close. The design that came up onto my screen was just stunning. The colors of her pelt just came together so beautifully, and her bi-colored eyes made it even more interesting to look at. Just like I stated with the first pup I tried for her in the form of her, I didn't want just any WoI just to be in it and I was looking for one that I fell in love with. This pup, I had fallen in love with for sure, just like the first pup I had tried out for, but even more than that. I'm glad that I haven't got a WoI before her, because this is such a great opportunity, seeing how beautiful she is, and I just clicked with her instantly. If I do happen to win her, I would make sure to draw her as much as I could when I had time to, especially because I get bored in school, and I would of course order art of her. She would get a spot in her own post in my character thread right under my fursona's post. I would also make sure to add on more to her story with more depth and everything when I got free time to, because it was just so fun and interesting to write about her life.

Personality:

Sweet
Although Kaori can be shy, especially around those who she doesn't know too well, she is very sweet. As sweet as you can get from a teen who's parents and siblings have passed away when she was just a young pup. To those who she doesn't know too well, she is a bit less sweet than to those who she know well, becuase she doesn't know how they are yet so she takes a bit of caution there.


Strong
Kaori is a very strong teen. She had to go through her parents and siblings dying in a short time of each other, and kept together pretty well from it all. Especially with her having to face seeing all of the others with their parents and siblings, having fun, or cuddling up and sleeping on the warmth of their fur, know they had someone that loved them still with them. Although she knew her parents and siblings love her still, and are watching down on her, and that always makes her fell a lot better.


Shy
This teenie can be very shy towards you, but it depends on how well she knows you. With her very close friends, and her crush, she feels like she can be herself and they won't care, although sometimes she can act pretty shy but it depends what's happening. Usually with them though, she is not extremely shy as she can be found to be with others. Towards strangers, or others who aren't really close to her, she can be very shy and hesitant to talk to them, not sure if she can trust them or not.


Brave
As a future warrior, Kaori has to be as brave as she can be. She fights without hesitation if it's a threat to a fellow WoI just to protect them, not thinking of what her outcome will be, but what theirs will. In the battlefield, she fights bravely, not thinking of what will happen to her, she fights for her fellow WoI to have peace once again.


Adventurous
Like most WoI, Kaori loves to explore and figure out new things. Spots to hunt, train, or somewhere just to sit down and relax, Kaori loves to find these new places where she can explore and spend free time at. Especially since it gets her out of thinking about her everyday life, and experience new surroundings.


Day-Dreamer
Kaori finds it relaxing to get out of the mindset of everyday life. If she's just sitting there, or hardly doing anything, she may dift off a bit. She also finds it to be much fun because in her day-dreams, she gets to control what happens in it for the most part. Usually when she day-dreams, it's about her family members that she lost, but sometimes her crush appears in a few of them.


Short story:

As A Pup
I was born at night, just when the moon glowed its most, with a slight chill in the air. With my little brothers and sisters, we snuggled up to our mom, seeking warmth. She wrapped her tail over our backs, and looked at our little faces. She thought we were beautiful, every one of us, altough that's what pretty much all mothers say about their children. It was cold outside, but with mom's body heat radiating off her, and her warm fur on us, we were just fine. It felt so good to breathe in the crisp air of the night for the first time.

It was the day each of our little, precious eyes first opened. My siblings all had such beautiful eyes, most had blue, but some had green. I was different. My eyes were both, one blue and one green. Our fur was smoother at this day, and our design showed the best it has so far in the short time we've been alive for. Bluish, gray, black, our pelt colors varried, but they all came together and you could tell we were siblings of course. We all had white markings with some other lighter and darker accents of the base color. We looked so much like our beautiful parents, they were so overwhelmed with how our markings and colors were so wonderful. We were each unique in our own ways wether it be pelt color, personality, or anything else you could think of. Today was a perfect day for names, our pelts were so easy to see, and our wonderful eyes were opened. Since we could actually see now, our personality showed quite a bit now.

My siblings and I studied each other for a while, until we took each other in fully. I knew they were my siblings and so did they, we were overly excited. As we were play fighting, and having so much fun together. Our parents also studied our markings, colors, and personalities, carefully contemplating on the perfect names for their small miracles of life. One of my brothers and I were play fighting, he pinned me to the ground giggling. I lay there thinking of what to do next, then I thought of it. I took my feet and paws and pushed him up, moved out from under him, and when he hit the ground I was over him faking a death blow with my paw. My parents had names for all of us in about an hour of carefully thinking and choosing the right names. The name I had received was Kaori. My dad told me that it meant strong, and he saw just how strong I was while play fighting, and how I had a great potential of becoming such a strong warrior. I just sat there, not fully understanding the concept of what he was talking about yet, but I giggled and gave a quick nod anyways.

A few months later, my mom and dad had to leave for a little. They told us they would be back soon, and were going off to a battle, but would be fine. We nodded and gave them hugs. Watching them leave with their stunning armor shinning in the sunlight. Someday, I wish I could have my very own armor like that, and become a warrior. In a few hours, we saw all of the warriors coming back. Excited to see our parents, we ran outside, looking left and right anxiously for them. But they weren't there. My heart sank low as a warrior saw us and explained that our mom and dad weren't coming back. We were so shocked but I thanked him for letting us know, and slowly made our way back to the den, laying down, just thinking. My siblings and I had all gotten sick within hours of the news, and that's all I had remembered of them.

I Missed Them
Seeing all of the others play fighting with their fathers, and snuggling up to their mothers at the end of the day. It hurt. So much. I did that too. But that was before what happened. I don't know why it had to be them, and I hope that no other young WoI would have to go through this, like I had to. Mom and dad were warriors, fighting with the others to claim back this land that is rightfully ours, against the Kronadors. Kronadors were large lizard like creatures with tough skin and sharp teeth. They were our enemies. We hated them. All of us. Especially me. I felt like I needed revenge for what they did. They changed my whole life. I wish I could go back to it all, having someone to love me and care for me. It was the best feeling in the world. But now I would never again. Not after the battle. The battle my parents were killed in. I wasn't there of course, but there was someone who was in battle near them and told me what had happened. They told me that my parents were both killed by Kronadors, the same one actually. They knew it was the same Kronador because he had claw marks over his left eye, and it was half shut the whole time. He was a very large, muscular creature, holding no mercy against the ones he attacked.

I knew death would come to them some way, but not like this, or this early. I can't tell you how long it took me to believe this was all real. It felt like any second mom and dad would come home, hug me and never let go. I sat in the cave entrance waiting for my parents to arrive for nights. It was no use though, reality was starting to sink in. I was shocked, that something like this could ever happen to someone. I thought I would be with my parents for so long, felt like this would never happen to me. But it did. I felt like revenge was the answer. I felt like I needed it so bad. But I realized that many other warriors lost their lives too, and we are also killing their Kronadors. So it didn't make sense to get revenge from him. If I even had enough strength too, how would I be able to get to him without anyone else seeing me. I still would really want to become a warrior. Not so much of revenge, as it was at first, but for my fellow WoI instead. So they can have peace on our land. To become a warrior though, I had to train hard.


How My Family Members Left
Dad was a strong, brave warrior as others had told me. Just like mom, he had died when I was just a young pup. In battle, by a Kronador. They were fighting near a ledge, which was already something to be aware of, let alone all of the lizard like creatures attacking you. Fighting that large, muscular kronador again, he was snapping at its neck, trying to get a grip of it. But after he tried to, it would also try to back to him. Every so often, inching backwards closer and closer to the edge, aware of it, but not sure how close it was becoming to his back paws. He couldn't do much about the large Kronador, forcing him farther and farther back except to hope someone would come over and help, but that hope was small considering all of the other Kronadors fighting against the other warriors, pretty much everyone was occupied. Dad's teeth cut through the air one last time, latching onto the kronador's neck. It let out a blood curling shriek before it reached down to dad's neck, ripping the warrior off of the creature's throat, taking out a small chunk of it. It saw the ledge and got an idea. A disgusting, horrible idea. With the warrior struggling to break free, the creature swung it's head back and then let go when it came forward. Dad was thrown off the ledge. His arms flailing trying to hold on to anything he could find. But it was no use, nothing could help him now, it was too late. He hit the ground with a thud, nothing broke his fall. His back was broken, he was lying there lifeless from the moment he hit the ground.

My mother was as sweet as can be, and very loving as I was told. I was a bit young to remember too much detail about her really, but I did remember some things about her. She died when I was a young pup. Off into battle she was, right behind dad. Killing, fighting. She was breathing hard, but not enough to have to stop. She knew she had to kill to keep our land peaceful and safe, for pups to have a good future, and not be killed by these horrible monsters. As a mother, it was her instinct to protect. As she was fighting a Kronador, she wasn't aware of anything else around her. That was a mistake. A large, very muscular one came up from behind. It took hold of her fragile throat, picking her up, and throwing her off to the side. She skidded across the rough, rock ground, tearing up her side. Her side now bloddy, and blood slowly dripping out of her throat where the wound was. Lying there with pain, there was no way she could make it. There was a chunk taken out of her throat, and the blood was flowing out faster and faster every so often, as the speed of it increased. At the end of the battle, Ichigo scouted out all of the injured and dead, and tried to help the ones who were injured. Some though had no hope for them, like mom. She was almost dead when Ichigo got to her after the few others he went to before. Her voice quivering with pain, and scared for her children, how they would be doing. On her dying moments, she managed to get out a thank you and asked for him to make sure that her children were taken care of, seeing her husband get killed there was no one else family wise to care for them. He promised that he would try his best, telling her to rest well, and we would never forget her ultimate sacrifice for them all. She gave a satisfied smile and her chest ceased to rise. But I knew that she was reunited with dad, just a few minutes behind him.

My siblings were another thing. I'm was not sure of what completely what happened to them. I just know that they were here once. I used to play with my siblings so much as a young pup, but after what happed to mom and dad, I hadn't a clue where they were. Not sure if they were dead, alive, lost, anything could have happened to them. There was no way of communication with them and me, I didn't even know if they were alive let alone where they'd be. I never asked any of the elders though, maybe they'd know where they'd went or what happened to them. I wish I had the courage to go up to the elders and ask one, but it was a hard subject to talk about, and I wasn't even sure if they'd be able to tell me anything, or if they knew about it or not. There was nothing more I wanted right now then to have my parents and siblings here with me. After I finally got the guts to go up and ask one of the elders, they agreed to tell me what happened after a few hesitations. He explained that after my parents had died, we had all became sick from one getting a cold and passing it down the line. Which made sense because I remembered that but that's all. Only it got worse every time someone caught it. All of my siblings sickness got too out of hand, they died days apart from each other. I was the last one, extremely sick, but I wasn't dead yet. It wasn't as bad as what my siblings conditions were. I survived. My siblings were all together again with my parents, waiting for me to come and join them when it was my time to come.


The one I fell in love with
I ran over to training, trying hard not to be late. My mentor looked over pleased to see I was there. He came up and explained what we were to be doing for today. I nodded listening as best as I could. It was just so hard though. My attention was trying to focus on something else at the same time. There the others were training too. One stood out especially. I don't know why though, it was just that he did. Everything I should say. I wasn't looking for my heart to be broken at all so it'd be best for me just to keep my distance. Why would he like me anyways. I was just as same as everyone else, nothing special. I jumped as my mentor snapped at me, getting my attention back. Him not sure what I was looking at, at all and I wasn't going to tell him. I bit my lip wanting to look back to him, but I knew my training was important. It was so hard to concentrate though, but I had to. If I didn't concentrate in battle, there's a bigger chance that I wouldn't make it out alive, if not injured. I couldn't be so worried about this anyways, I couldn't be in love now. There was too much to worry about, and again, why would he like me anyways. I just carried on with my training for the day, pushing my thoughts about it as far back as possible, at least for now anyways. It was hard keeping him off my mind, and I didn't know why it was. Friends was good anyways, if we even were. I hardly ever talked to him, but I don't really know why, just a bit shy I guess.

After training I walked up to the waterfall, wanting to sit in peace for a while. As I approached it I saw someone sitting there. I couldn't see who it was until I had gotten closer. I stopped in my tracks, my stomach twisting up. I wanted to run away, but I just was there standing. Stepping back greeted with the sound of a twig I had stepped on. I cringed as he looked back at me, signaling for me to come over. Butterflies were fluttering in my stomach, I didn't know whether I should take the chance or not. Without thinking I walked up to where he sat, and sat down right next to him. Explaining how I was sorry and didn't know there was anyone else over here. I don't think he cared though because he didn't respond. I shrank back, my heart dropping, I felt so stupid. He was silent and didn't say a word. I felt so weird just sitting there. I slowly got up and turned around mumbling bye as I walked off, wondering if I did anything wrong. I heard someone running behind me as my ears perked up, and my body fell to the ground. He came back to me and jumped on top of me, starting a play fight. I giggled and ran towards him, jumped up to step up on his head, pushed off and got up to a branch above his head. Snickering at him trying to get up to me. This was so much fun. I jumped back down to face his paws tackling me to the ground. I gazed into his eyes, they were so beautiful. But I snapped out of the moment and pushed him off, this time him falling to the ground. We were so worn out from play fighting, we decided to go back to the others, but we both had so much fun. He was so fun to be around. I was falling for him even more now, but I've already lost quite a few loved ones, I just wouldn't be able to take another if he was killed.


In The Forest
I was alone with him, wandering about the forest. I hated myself for liking him, I shouldn't be because of what would happen if something bad happen to him. But everytime I was with him, my love grew stronger for him. I couldn't help how I felt though. I just did. Wondering if he felt the same way or not about me, I hoped he did, but some other part of me hoped he didn't, I don't know why exactly though. I'm usually a bit shy around others, but when I'm with him, I don't really worry about anything except for him. It was fun exploring the beautiful land of Isket, especially with him. We ran around for a bit, and then we saw something we couldn't pass up. It was a rabbit. We looked at each other simultaniously and grinned, nodding to each other, thinking the exact same thing. I was staring to get hungry right now, and so was he. Plus it'd be fun to hunt for a little bit. We made it a sort of competition, we would go at the same time, and see who got to the rabbit and killed it first. I got into position, lying low, trying not to be heard or seen by the rabbit. As I looked over to see what he was doing to get ready to kill it, he jolted off towards the target. I got up surprised and thinking how crazy he was for just sprinting out towards it. The rabbit was startled, looked like it almost had a heart attack, and ran off with him chasing it down, giggling. I just stay there sitting, grinning about how obnoxious he was about it.

That's about the time when I realized he was gone. My grin suddenly turned worried. My eyes wide and searching around frantically, hoping to spot him. But no, I couldn't see or hear him from where I was right now so I just up and started to move about, looking around frantically, hoping I would find him soon. I had almost given up, when I saw a light. I ran up to it curiously and it was a moth, but it was so pretty, it was glowing. It whirled, dancing around my head, and started to drift off in front of me. It looked like it wanted me to follow it, so I did just that, thinking to myself that this is why I shouldn't have fallen in love. I knew it would hurt if something bad happened to him, I did. But now he was gone, and it did hurt, just like it did when I learned my parents and siblings were never coming back, with him running off it didn't hurt as bad though, something inside of me kept pushing me forward knowing we would find each other again somehow. The moth was still leading me somewhere, and I realized how deep in the forest I was now.

The forest had darkened, and the strange creatures of the night had started to emerge from their hiding spots. I shut everything else out at that time then, only focusing on looking for him and following the moth to see where it was wishing to take me to. When I was just about to give up on the idea of following this random little moth, I heard something. It was a scream. Coming from just a little bit ahead, I stood in shock realizing how familier it sounded. It was him! But what had he screamed for, did he see me and was trying to get my attention? Or was it something bad? Did he run into a Kronador? So many thoughts were going through my head, hoping it was nothing too bad. The moth had picked up it speed racing forward, as I ran after it, in the direction towards the spot where the scream had echoed from. My body flowing up and down through the air as my paw pads violently pounded on the forest floor, desperate to get to him as soon as I possibly could.

When the moth had stopped, it was floating over something and its glow lit up some of whatever was standing there a few feet in front of me. It was so hard to see in this darkness, but as I stepped closer, I could see the outline of a WoI teen. It was him, I had finally got to him! I ran up to him, relieved. When my shoulders dropped down, they were sore, I had realized just how tense I was while making my way here. But when I looked at him again, he looked in slight pain, and said he had stepped in a hole while running, and twisted his paw. His paw was up in the air, bent downwards. I looked at him worried, but he claimed he would be fine. I nodded and embraced him, feeling his warm fur against mine, we were so relived we had found each other. Not sure if the moth was actually trying to bring me to him, or it was just plain luck, I looked over to the moth anyways and whispered a thanks as it flew off. With him limping onwards and me supporting him a little bit, we found our way back to the den, although it did take a while. But it was okay, I was with him again now and only worried of loosing him one more time.

The Waterfall
I looked around silently, making sure nobody was watching me and ran off. No I didn't run away, I was just going to go to one of my favorite places in Isket, especially after training or something very demanding like that. It was the waterfall. It was just so beautiful and peaceful, I loved it. Just the way the sound the water made when it trickled over the reddish rocks while other parts flowed heavily, it was so wonderful. I couldn't wait to see it again so I ran faster, and stopped as soon as my paws were just at the edge of it. I realized that I had never been at the top of it, and curiosity struck me. I quickly ran up to the reddish rocks that made a barrier around the water. I jumped onto the first one, it was fine so I started to makes my way up, jumping up rock to rock. Almost slipping with every jump, from the stray water that splashed the rocks. I didn't care though, I just pushed it aside, all I wanted to do was to see the top of this thing. As I worked my way up, the rocks were getting smaller and smaller, the path got steeper until I couldn't jump up anymore rocks. I had to pull myself up a few spots, but I got to the top.

I stood there, looking around. It was so wonderful to see this place, although just a little higher, you could see so many things. The den over there, the warriors awakening, starting to move about, and the pups who were awake and full of energy, chasing each other around. I had a urge to jump off into the water, but decided that would be too dangerous as I don't know how shallow that could be down there. I quickly found a different path that would be easier to get down, and worked my way down, taking slow steps. When I finally reached the ground, I jumped into the water. It was refreshing, the cool water on my thick fur felt so good right about now. I got right out though, knowing I had to head over to training soon. On land once again, I shook off the cool water, regretting I got out. It was rather hot outside, but I trotted on over to training anyways.


A Little Later In Her Life

Quest For Armor
I woke up and ran out of the cave up to my mentor. My paws were shaking with excitement and nervousness. Around us were the other apprentices and their mentors. Today was an important day, very special it was indeed. Today, we all were going out on our quest for our very own, unique armor. But it's not as easy as you may make it out to sound, we were warned about the many dangers that lurk in the forest on the way to our armor. The Kronadors were the biggest thing to keep an eye out for, since they were very strong. If we come across one of them, we'd have to work it out ourselves to do what we thought was best. It was a life threatening trip, but we had trained so hard, we couldn't just let this slip away from us. All of us were very committed to getting our armor. I have wanted my very own armor, and to become a warrior ever since I saw mom and dad heading off to battle. After the alphas explained to us what we'd have to go through on this journey, we nodded comprehendingly and set off on our seperate ways. I trotted off anxiously into the woods, looking around to make sure no danger was around me. Nothing, yet at least. A branch almost falling on my leg, I picked up my pace, startled. I was as alert as you could ever possibly be. If I wasn't, took my mind off of my surrounds for just a second, I could be dead. A second off guard is all a Kronador would need to come down from its hiding spot and crush my throat.

I carried on, extremely alert still. Maybe about half way through my journy, being safe and feeling a little bit better about being alone in this danger-filled forest, that's when I ran into trouble. The smell threatning to choke me with fear, as I stood there wide eyed thinking about what was going to happen next. After a little bit, I figured out what I was to do. I may end up dying, but I knew I was going to fight this creature anyways, I had to. By the time I passed by it, it would have spotted me, and not back down without a violent, bloddy fight. I stood there, taking in a deep breath, feeling how fresh the air was in my lungs, I cherised this breath, as it may just as well be my last. Exhaling, I walked forward slowly, trying to be as stealthy as possible. But I knew it was waiting for me. For the right moment where it could see me the best and make out an attack, but I already knew it was there so there was no point in acting like it was so hidden, becuase its scent drifting through the air gave it all away. As I approached the bush, the Kronador slickly emerged. I can admit I was a little nervous about this, but I was going to have to fight a Kronador sometime in my life if I was going to be a warrior. And why not start now, I was on my way for my armor anyways, and later I would become a warrior, if I made it there that is.

This is the first time I had seen a Kronador this close before. Its eyes were boring into mine, paralizing my thoughts with fear. I looked away, taking my sight off of it, and that's all it needed was an invitaion to make a move and throw five sharp claws at me. It scratched up my leg, I could feel a stinging sensation where it had just scratched me, and knew it was bleeding slightly but didn't look down. I quickly took action and leaped for the throat, latching on, clamping down as hard as I ever possibly could. I could feel blood oozing out of the spot where I had my teeth sunk into. The creature let out a horrifing cry as it shook vigorously, trying to free itself from the thing crushing it's throat. I held on as best as I could but I focused on killing this creature. I felt like I was going to fall down soon, so I took advatage of when I was already at its throat, and clamped down even harder. That's when the kronador couldn't take the pain anymore, it shook so hard that there was no way I could possibly keep hold, I flew off of its neck and fell on the ground. A good size chunk of Kronador in my mouth right now. It tried to stay up, but its blood loss was growing quickly as the blood spewed out of its throat. My jaw was sore, but I watched as the creature collapsed to the ground. I went up to it cautiously to make sure it wasn't faking, and gave it another bite to the throat to ensure it not getting up again to kill.

I walked off, shocked at how I got that perfect chance at the throat, and had enough strength to bite hard and stay on for enough time. My muzzle now drenched with blood, and my nose constantly going to have to smell the stench of it until I could wash it off. I had forgotten about my leg so I quickly looked down. It was bleeding slightly, nothing to be too worried about. As I walked farther and farther, my nose started to pick up a distant smell. It was the smell of my fellow apprentices, I was getting closer to the cave in which the armor lay. I ran with excitment, the cave now in my sight, getting larger and larger. I had finally made it, nobody was outside of it except for me, so the others must have gotton inside already. I raced inside, slowing down as I saw the first shiny armor. It was so beautiful, a coppery color, but not for me. I explored the cave more, finding armor along the way. Still nothing I felt a connection with. As I went on farther, a spot of silver caught my attention. As I approached it closer, I could see it was another armor. This one was different though, this was the one for me. I slipped it on anxiously, and studied myself in it, it was wonderful.

As I got back to the den, I realized that there was one detail that I had to add on to make it the one for me. I twisted my wrist to face up, my armor cuff shifting the way I moved it, and picked up a sharp looking rock. Carefully I engraved the cuff, making my handwriting as legable as I could, taking my time. When I was finnished it said:

"Gone yet not forgetten,
although we are apart,
your spirit lives withing me,
forever in my heart"

It was a sort of memorial for my deceased parents and siblings.

First Battle
The alphas gathered the warriors, everyone already suited up into their armor. They explained that they had sighted the Kronador army approaching, and were going to declare war. Getting into my tough, warrior mindset, I closed my eyes, thinking. Just reminding myself not to make any stupid moves, and to get that horrid Kronador that killed my parents if I could get the chance, but not go to out of my way to find a certain one. Only because I can't just pass by warriors who may need help, or other Kronadors snapping at my heals. I followed after the other warriors, but staying close behind. We all stopped a few feet away from our part of the land, and the kronadors on theirs, declaring war on each other. Then it broke out into a chain of growls, and we raced towards the Kronador army, as they raced towards the warriors. The battle has just only begun. I spotted my target, sprinting at it and body slammed it. I hadn't put enough force into it though so the creature just stumbled back a little, throwing it off balance for a second. It snapped at my neck, threatening to rip it apart, but I saw it coming some how and dodged the attack just in time. I mirrored its attack this time, going for the neck. My teeth but scraped the fur off of the surface slightly. Right after that I didn't wait for him to possibly kill me, I reached forward and clamped my teeth down on its front leg. It wailed slightly and threw its head down, pinning me to the ground while in between its deadly jaws. I struggled, but wiggled my way slowly to face up towards its neck, trying my best to reach up to its throat. I settled for the spot closest before it could squeeze its jaws shut all of the way, I slipped my mouth around it and latched on. It shot up surprised, and I slipped off from the force. My teeth just made a couple of marks on the fur like before. I was not getting anywhere in this fight, and it was frustrating. Without thinking at all I ran to it full force and smacked our heads together, it fell back and so did I. That actually really hurt, it probably wasn't the smartest attack. But the kronador was still on its back with pain, I just realized the armor on my head, that was probably what did the damage.

I quickly got up, ignoring the slight ache I got when I did and went over the the kronador who was in so much pain. I went for the throat and squeezed, only letting go when blood squirted up, and I knew it was dead. I lifted my head back up, searching to see if any others needed help. There was one at least that I saw. It stood out, I had to help, I couldn't just let it pass. It was my crush. He was being pinned down, the kronador above him, about to make the kill. I sprinted up to that creature and sunk my teeth into its head, biting harder and harder, furious at it for almost killing him. It made a faint noise from pain and stepped back from him, just focusing on me now, it threw its head up, resulting in me falling onto the ground behind it. He went for the front of the kronador while I, the back. I got to one of the back legs, and let my teeth sink in as far as they could before it hit the bone. The creature just kicked at me, hitting my head. I fell back a bit from the pain, but shook it off and went for the front this time, helping him. I looked up at the Kronador, making eye contact for a second, but a second was all I needed to spot the claw marks over the half shut eye. It was him, sure, others may have claw marks over the same eye, but I knew it was the one, he was very muscular, and big. It was the one. The one that killed my parents. I swallowed, hardly able to, as I ran up and got the creature in a hold in between my sharp teeth, feeling the life spewing out of the Kronador as I held on longer and longer. It fell the the ground with a thud, it couldn't take anymore of this. We stood upon it, its eyes open as far as they could, its mouth slightly open, blood started to drip out of it. The wound on the neck created a puddle of blood, the Kronadors whole neck sitting in it. I looked around, dead warriors, dead Kronadors, lying lifeless on the cold ground of the battlefield. The injured moaning and squirming about ever so slightly with pain. The battle was over. The warriors and Kronadors started to make their way back. It was quiet, everyone was just thinking. Thinking of who wasn't in the group returning, thinking of how many of them were dead or just injured, hoping Igino would be able to heal them. Igino was already at the battlefield, scouting out all of the injured and dead, healing those who he could. Some with no hope for life at this time.


Just a few thoughts on her armor, but I may need help making it if I do happen to win her.
Armor Thoughts:
For the cuffs front shape would possibly be a pair of wings, as just a reminder of her deceased family members that they are high up there and watching down on her, and also that if she tries hard anything is possible. Since they're wings and if you have wings you can fly high off the ground, and its sort of adventurous also, like she is because she could explore new places and things if she actually did have real wings. On the back of the cuffs would be just plain old strip of the material. On the strip is where the quote is going to be, but only on one of the cuffs, not both. The armor itself I was thinking to maybe have it a silver color with some tealish blue (the color of her one eye) maybe or a dark grey. For the head armor, I was thinking a triangular shaped plate. The back armor split into two pieces that overlap each other and are a triangular shape. Then a chest plate that is a diamond shape too but curves to fit her. Again, these are just a few random ideas in my head, it's hard to explain them but it looks better in my head then it sounds, and I've been having trouble with trying to draw any armor. If I do get her I'll probably end up redoing most of these thoughts and make it look better, except for the cuffs because I really like them the way they sound, and am probably going to need a bit of help with drawing it and coming up with better ideas.

Thanks! (:


Say 3 things about the WoI Species:

1. One experienced WoI can take down a kronador single handedly, and three novice WoI can take down a kronador together.

2. Only custom and alpha WoI can breed.

3. The WoI's enemies are kronadors which are large, reptile-like creatures and are fighting each other for power of the land of Isket, but neither are capable of defeating one another completely.

Sorry that the form is long, I just got so wrapped up in writing about her, I couldn't stop. It was just to fun and interesting to write about her life and history, and I think I went too far with my form and over did it. But good luck to everyone, and judges to! And thank you for this wonderful opportunity to try for this beautiful WoI teen.

The quote that I used I found online on this one site, I was just browsing through some sites for memorial quotes, and I found that one that I really liked. I did not think this up on my own, it's just a good quote that I found. If you want me to put up the page I got it on then I can, I just have to find it quickly in my history.

Re: Adoptable WOI (Open!)

Postby Raindrop » Tue Nov 22, 2011 1:58 am

Name:

Nocte. (I pronounce it as nock-tay, but I know other people would say it differently.)

Nocte is actually Latin for 'night', which I feel fits this lovely teenie. I guess I think of her as that. A manifestation of nighttime. A very gorgeous one, at that. To me, the deep blues in her design, represent the colours of the night, and the whites represent rays of moonlight. And her bi-coloured eyes, staring straight through your soul. A perfect representation of nighttime all in a canine.

Image

Why I would like her:

This pup is just amazing. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. Words can't describe how much I admire her. Or adore her. Others say they like her because of her design/personality and so on and felt immediately connected to her, but for me, it just started out with a slight interest, which turned into a really deep bond, and that was when I decided I had to try out for her.

As soon as I saw her, I really felt connected to her in a way, and I just felt that she really 'clicked' with me. My imagination and motivation to draw digital art suddenly just flared up again, and I think it was partly because this teenie inspired me. I just really felt more drawn to her somehow than other adoptable WOI I've seen before, she just really captured my attention with her stunning design and personality. She is a really outstanding WOI teenie, and I was really drawn to her even before the official contest for her even started. She really stands out amongst all others in a crowd, and this was one attribute that made me want to apply for her.

I just really love how her dark colours match so well with the light ones. I've always been looking for a character that could have well-contrasting monochrome, dark and light colours. I simply adore the balance of the colours that makes this lovely WOI teenie who she is, and it gives her a wonderful personality too. The background you've made for her gives her a really mysterious air, and coupled with her contrasting design, is a really breathtaking and lovely piece of art. It's one other reason why she really captured my attention and took my breath away the moment I saw her on my computer screen.

I don't apply for WOI just for the sake of having one. I do apply for them, because, they are all wonderful in their own unique ways and deserve a home with a loving owner where they would be comfortable and forever loved in, wherever and whoever that may be. Hopefully I may one day be one of the owners in question and reach the standards of what a caring, loving owner of a WOI should be, but until then, I'll keep on hoping.

I know that if I got her, I would definitely spoil her with endless showers of art, stories or novels, and other forms of written art. Digital art, traditional art, short stories, novels, the like. All of them would be dedicated especially to her, as I think that she really deserves a plentiful amount of art and stories and appreciation. If I won her, I'd definitely sign her up for the WOI RP, and I'd start on writing her entire biography about her past, her personality, likes, and the such. She'd get a page for herself in my character site, with her entire bio in there, with frequent updates whenever I get a new idea for her history/past and the such.

I really appreciate the hard work that all WOI staff put in to run the entire system of WOI, and it can't be easy running it, either. It's really nice, too, that you guys didn't make WOIs an invite-only species and that you actually run contests to help decide owners for WOIs. I think you also deserve an applaude, too, Lilian Nightshade, for making such a lovely teenie and taking your time to hold this contest. :]

Image

Personality:

I tried making her personality as close to the original as possible, but with add-ons, as I felt that her original personality was already really suitable for her. Mostly what I focused on was her shyness, as I thought that it was her shyness that made her really sort of 'unique' in a sense, you know?

-Quiet/Shy-

Nocte is a quiet WOI. She often keeps silent, and only tends to reply when absolutely mandatory. She doesn't speak in random conversations or in conversations about gossip. Often to spare having to talk, she will make excuses or suddenly drop out of conversations.

Nocte shys away from anything that would garner the attention of many other individuals. She doesn't like speaking publicly in front of a crowd, nor does she even speak much in front of close friends. You might not think Nocte to be shy, seeing as she isn't the type to be like that, but she is.

Socializing and bonding with others is a hard thing for Nocte to achieve, although she honestly tries overcoming her shyness to be closer to others. Her past seclusion from most creatures of Isket has made it very hard for her to bond with them without failing.

She prefers to be around with others who have the same bonding disability, as she feels they can understand her better than other who have never gone through her experiences before.


-Observant/Keen-

Nocte has a certain knack for noticing small details around her that most tend to ignore and take much care of. See that snail on that small rock in the bushes over there? If you noticed it, it's most certain that Nocte has too, and most likely she noticed it before you did. She might be farsighted, yes, perhaps a reason why she has this rather surprising talent.


-Sincere/Honest-

Nocte never lies, and is always sincere about whatever she says. She only states the truth, or her opinions, if you were wanting an opinion from her. She never exaggerates about anything, but her words aren't cutting or harsh, either.


-Curious/Adventurous-

Although shyness, Nocte has a certain curiousness with many different things she's eager to know about. Sometimes her shyness is forgotten in her angst to know more. This curiousness can often whip up a whole new batch of problems for her and passerbys. She doesn't pry or eavesdrop, though, if you don't feel like telling or showing her something.


-Loyal/Faithful-

Her loyalty to friends/family/her pack never wavers, and never does, even for a greater good. She remains loyal to whomever she chooses until the very end. But, unfortunately Nocte does not have any living relatives, or any that she can remember, and was probably abandoned when young. That, or her parents died before she could even remember them.


-Mild/Moderate-

Nocte is generally a mild WOI, in both manners and behaviour. She treats other respectfully, just the way everyone else treats her. She is quite gentle, and handles everything carefully, to avoid hurting/damaging things.


-Brave/Courageous-

No one can deny that although her small stature, her bravery exceeds that of a normal canine's. She is more than willing to go up against a Kronador to help her fellow WOI eventually defeat their mortal enemies and gain the long-awaited peace of Isket.


-Rebellious streak/Stubborn-

Although she might be shy, smaller in stature or younger than most, Nocte hates being forced or ordered around, as if she were a youngling. She has a certain mindset, that once in action, is impossible to control. Whatever she deems as the best course of action, she'll do it. But if she doesn't like your idea/order, she'll be most definitely be doing the opposite.


-Daydreamer/Unfocused-

Nocte tends to ponder, or daydream, if you'd like to say it, about many things and that often gets her into trouble. This daydreamer often loves being wrapped up into a fake reality of her current world's situation, and often loves dreaming about things that are not within her grasp to achieve yet. Yes, that could also mean she has a big ego.


Image

Short story:

(Some notes: My stories are kind of a collection of a bunch of stories and events that occurred in Nocte's lifetime. Most of them features her around her current age right now, which I guess would be quite young since she is a teenie? But some might feature her as a young adult warrior, I guess I'm not so sure myself. xD)

The titles might not be quite relevant to the story, I just thought they were cool. xD

Oh, and by the way, I'm not sure if I was allowed to use some existing WOI characters in my stories, but if it's not, feel free to tell me and I'll take them down.

If some stories don't really make sense and don't seem relevant at the moment you read them, read on first, most stories have some connection between them.

If I win her, I'll immediately set off to find her a suitable mentor for her.

Yes, I realise most of the stories are pretty sad and full of grief, sadness etc, but if I can find the time, I'll write up a happy short story, as the first three short stories were done during the earlier stages of the competition.)

Hiding, somewhere in the night.

Still hiding.

The creature sighed. She couldn't see the stars, no matter how hard she tried to do so. It seemed that they were intent on hiding from her line of vision, behind the thick, dark wall of the snowstorm.

But why? Didn't anyone know that, however insignificant to others the stars may seem to them, it was her savour, her only lifeline left to her mother.

Mother. Where are you? She begged silently. She was so confused, and so new to this world. Yet her mother had left her, just like that. Without a second thought to what it would do to her. To her daughter.

Where are you? The freezing wind bit into the she-canid's fur, sending chills down her body. Already she felt the effects of hunger and cold; for she was barely able to move, and the chills were soon constant, never ceasing even after she tried warming herself up. With the cold, came the scarcity of prey. With the scarcity of prey, came hunger.

Death, seemed inevitable.

The she-wolf was afraid. Afraid of going to sleep, afraid of dying out here, so unwanted and unloved, even by her mother and the stars whom she once used to be so fond of.

She could sense her eyelids drooping, and struggled with effort to push them back open. She could not afford to sleep out here - she might die of the cold, or of hunger at any instant, in this deserted snowfield. And she would've failed her mother. Her mother, who had died to keep her alive.

A long battle ensues, raging within the canine. Time and time again she forces herself awake, even biting down, hard, into her own limbs to jerk her awake. Desperate measures called for desperate actions.

Her willpower finally succumbed to fatigue. The battle was lost, everything else lost with it. She could feel herself drifting away, her sight giving way to pitch-black darkness. Her body went still, cold and hard to the touch.

The snowstorm abruptly halts. The last flake of snow drifts down, and lands delicately, melting on touch of the tip of the she-canid's speckled nose.

A single star shines brightly, high up in the sky.

...

Canine eyes open, to a dark, foggy light.

The she-canid stares blearily, still shivering. It was cold here.

She sees, a large number of canine creatures alike her, but with a different variety of ears, tails, and so on. Many wear odd, shining, metallic things on them. Some were staring at her, but most are busied by their own activities.

"Where?" She croaks.

"Shh. No harm will come to you, here, young one." She couldn't pinpoint exactly who was talking to her. A feeling of safety was accompanied by those words, though. "Rest."

That she did, eventually.

+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.

Find me in the hollow tree.

Bloodcurdling screams echoed around. Many canine-proportioned creatures, seen around the camp, some wearing armour and some not, all stood ramrod straight and all ears were pricked for a sign of the sound again.

The bushes parted, revealing the warriors who had just set out some time during the dawn of the day before. It was obvious, from the gashes, scars, open wounds and dragging legs, inflicted upon them, that they had been in combat recently. Their once shining armour had deteriorated into scrap metal hanging off of them limply. Their eyes were weary, and fatigue overcame many of them as they took even the smallest pawsteps into the camp.

Many other warriors, the ones who resided in the camp, rushed forward to help them. It was soon enough before the injured warriors got medical attention and treatments.

But some never saw the sun set over Isket ever again.

The crowd around the medical area parted as a few warriors heaved a limp, lifeless body out of the den. Cries of horror, anguish, were heard. Whispers circulated through the crowd, passing from one wolf to another, like a rippling, undying wave.

"What has happened?" Rayo, the Ultimate Alpha, appeared at the scene, his face unable to mask the shock that overcame him.

The shaman, Igino, stared grimly at Rayo as he came out of his den. "We were ill-prepared for this attack, it seems."

Mentors ushered their apprentices back to their own dens, wanting to spare them from seeing the carcass of the dead warrior. Many others separated from the scene, resigning for the day. "Stand back." A warrior, ushered the small, cowered creature behind him. The tiny canine's figure trembled as she took in the horrible scene before her. The sight of the dead carcass being dragged along by the two other WOI. But she only saw that much, before her mentor had blocked her view. "Let us go, Nocte." Gulping, Nocte trailed after her mentor, darting quick glances backward.

(Guess I should explain that the creatures who wounded these warriors were kronadors that they had come across on their journey. What they planned to achieve, though, I'm not so sure.)

+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.

A young Warrior's duty fulfilled. (This short story is rather long, I apologize, but I guess I had to write it out, otherwise the plot would be wasted, and plus, I couldn't seem to get it out of my mind.)

The dark-pelted canine flew through the forest with an amazing agility. She came to a halt, panting. The eerie forest screeched with the sound of a million insects and other creatures clicking in her ears.

Her destination lay up ahead. The glistening red mountains, where the dens were, sat as still as ever, unaffected by the harsh, cutting winds that ruffled her fur. She dashed ahead, her breath coming in short, ragged breaths. Soon, the camp was in her line of sight.

Silhouettes of canine figures close to the entrance of the camp were visible from where she was at that time. It was as if they were waiting for something, or someone. Up close, she could sense the wave of frustration and annoyance being vented out by the warriors. She came to a halt near the entrance.

"I'm-sorry," Nocte choked out, trying to regain her breath.

"Nocte." A voice said. Her mentor was looking down at her, disappointment etched in his muzzle. "I thought you would take the responsibility to be earlier, seeing as you no longer are a pup." There was an edge in his voice as he spoke.

Nocte hung her head low, not daring to look up. Her muzzle prickled with shame. "Sorry," she muttered.

Her mentor studied her for a while, which made Nocte squirm around uncomfortably. His face softened the fraction of an inch. "I know it is hard for you in this life, but you cannot always lack behind. Please, try to be punctual next time." He looked up, and announced something in a voice audible enough for the rest to hear. "We shall be hunting by the creek today. If you have any objections, voice them now." No one did. He nodded, setting off at a steady pace.

Nocte was rather depressed, her heart sinking. A majority of the warriors in the hunting party were older or larger in stature than her. Her disability of her shyness always affected her to be nervous or clumsy everytime there was someone watching her while doing something.

Their destination was soon reached. The creek nearby flowed, an eerie gurgling melody. Long grass tickled Nocte's fur, and she found that she could barely keep up.

"We'll split up here. Everyone, pick your own hunting areas, but do not dawdle." Her mentor turned to her. "Nocte, you'll be hunting with me. We shall work on your hunting skills today."

Nocte was glad she wasn't being watched by the other warriors. She wouldn't do as well as her abilities were capable of if there were onlookers, but just with her mentor, she would do fine.

"Let's see your hunter's crouch, Nocte. If I recall properly from our last training session, you did quite well on it, yet your balance is still a little unsteady. " Nocte crouched downward, shifting her weight from one limb to the other. Her mentor nodded, approvingly. "You have improved, it seems. I-" His statement was broken off by loud, piercing screams. The voices whom they belonged to were familiar. They were the voices of two other warriors from the hunting party.

Her mentor stood tensely. He lifted his nose into the air, as if he had scented something. "I knew it. But how? They were not here before." He muttered to himself. He shook his head. "Nocte, stay put. If I don't get back after a while, go back to where we came from and find another warrior. Am I clear?"

Nocte was taken aback by how tense and worried he was. "Ye-yes." As he took off, she couldn't help but ask, "Wha-what is happening? Is something wrong?"

Her mentor halted in his tracks. "Something is very wrong, it seems." Saying no more than that, he took off into the depths of the dark forest. Nocte gulped. This was again from a scene in her past, her being left alone. What was happening? Even her mentor did not say anything that cleared things up.

As if to answer her question, a cold, horrible smell clawed its way into Nocte's speckled nose, not unlike that of stale hunks of raw meat. She paled, her muzzle turning ghostly white. This can't be!

In her lifetime, Nocte had never faced one of those things before. They never came so close to the camp before, and when one did, most of the warriors were well-prepared to drive them out. But they weren't prepared for this sort of ambush.

A flashback scene. She remembered the pair of the young warrior apprentices in the hunting group, playfully nudging each other around as they approached the forest. The sight of them in her head again, left her willpower crumbling to pieces.

I have to help!

Nocte sprinted off. She started off slowly at first, but she began to pick up speed with every pawstep. She tried retracking her mentor's pawsteps, using the imprints of his steps in the ground. It was hard to do so, with her limited abilities and her small knowledge of tracking. It wasn't quite as hard as she had expected, though. The horrible smell seemed to get even stronger as she approached the small meadow where apprentices were usually trained in practice fighting.

It was just as she had feared. A maned creature, with cold, reptilian eyes, its coat contrasting against the forest environment. Its wild mane flew around as it snapped at a canine. Her mentor! So this was what was wrong. It was not a wonder why he had not told Nocte about what had been happening, perhaps he thought she would have been frightened by the news.

Two warriors, whom were luckily not the apprentices she had a flashback of earlier, were there also. One seemed to be injured, and was bleeding profusely in its hind leg, cowering behind a bunch of scraggly bushes. The other, who had a slight limp, but otherwise seemed unharmed, was also snarling and attacking the kronador.

At the sight of her, her mentor immediately tensed. "What are doing here, Nocte?" He shouted, his hackles raised as he dodged one of the kronador's swipes.

"Helping," She muttered, racing toward her mentor's side. The kronador seemed alerted by the arrival of another warrior, and hissed in defiance, spitting madly. Obviously it was not frightened by Nocte's presence, underestimating the warrior-in-training, another disadvantage that she faced in a real battle. It raced toward her, fangs bared in a menacing snarl.

She yelped and dodged, its claws only missing her by a pawlength. It turned upon her again, hissing furiously. It charged, but this time she lashed out with a paw just as it missed her again, opening a wide gash in it, that led to blood spewing everywhere.

Her mentor pushed her behind him. "Stay back, Nocte. We'll deal with this." She could only watch as her mentor and the other warrior slashed viciously at the kronador, who stood no chance against the two seasoned warriors. The kronador did not die quietly, and it thrashed around viciously, trying to claw the two warriors as it went down. Eventually, it lay, its eyes narrowed in hatred, looking blankly out into the sky, drowning in a pool of its own blood that spurted from a deep wound in its neck.

The moment the kronador had been confirmed dead, Nocte's mentor turned on her like a whirlwind. "Nocte! What were you thinking? Had I not told you to stay? Why did you follow me here?" He demanded. Nocte stared at him, her eyes dilated with fear, while trying to cower from his sudden anger. "I-I," She stuttered, trying to find an explanation. None came to mind.

Her mentor took in deep breaths, trying to calm himself. "I understand you only wanted to help. But, refrain from jumping into situations like these next time."

+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.+.

When the sun shines, we'll shine together.

Beautiful and graceful, varied and enchanting, small but approachable, butterflies lead you to the sunny side of life. And everyone deserves a little sunshine.

It was nighttime in Isket. The moon was shining brightly, stars dotting the landscape far above. The scent of wildflowers and dewdrops on grass was imminent. Butterbirds floated around the land freely, unaffected by the wind nor the darkness.

Nocte lay on the grass, her mind drifting off to who-knew-where. She seemed deep in thought, though. Most would prefer being out in the daylight, though this was not true for Nocte. She enjoyed being surrounded in darkness, as she felt more at home and relaxed.

I did order another piece, but unfortunately the owner of the art shop misread my post and didn't reply to it until Sunday, so the order was cancelled and I wasn't able to acquire the piece of ordered art.

Say 3 things about the WoI Species:

-Warriors of Isket fight to find peace for the land of Isket, against the Kronadors, their enemies.

-A warrior of Isket could be a big wolf with normal-sized ears, long ears or really short ears, and they can also have 3 other different types of tails as well.

-They have dens, which appear to be normal caves but once inside, you'll discover that it's actually a huge network of rooms and tunnels.
