What will he/she's name be? Esotere
Should you adopt this puppy just because it's popular? Of course not~ They are a beautiful species and I fell in love with them as soon as I saw the first litter.
What is your pup's personality going to be like? Esotere is an intelligent, polite pup, but very vicious and protective when needed. She is somewhat flirty, but loyal to those she loves. Esotere is a very elegant and graceful wolf, her steps light and silent.
Write a short story for your pup: The moon rose into the sky silently, lighting the land with its white eerie glow. A pretty pup lay in the center of a clearing, her deep brown fur bathed in the moonlight.
"Esotere."
She opened her amber eyes and found herself staring up at her father. His magnificent golden fur was illuminated by the shaft of light.
"Father," she greeted quietly. "To what do I owe the pleasure of your company?"
Dax eyed his small pup silently. "We are taking you out tonight to view the territory." He swiped his tail around the clearing, his fur bristling in the cool wind.
Esotere blinked. She stood up, tail quivering with excitement. "Thank you Father," she said, unable to control her joy. "Thank you." She rose her sleek head to the cool night air, feeling the breeze against her pelt. She had always dreamed for this day, when she finally got to go into the deep forest. It was perfect weather outside, clear and cool, just as she would have wanted it to be for this special day.
The pup padded quietly after her father, glancing around at the tall, slender trees. A rustle sounded, and Esotere froze. "What was that?" she asked in a small voice. "Father?"
Dax was gone, vanished without a trace. Esotere dropped to the forest floor, her tail sticking straight out behind her, as she lifted her nose to the air. A strange, unfamiliar scent mingled with her father's. The scent was musky, and evil. Suddenly Esotere's fear disappeared. It was replaced with a strong, ambitious feeling that spread through her blood, icy cold.
It was the desire to fight.
A dark mass of fur leaped out of the undergrowth. Esotere felt the force of the thing knock her down onto the terra. Blinking with shock, she laid paralyzed for a moment before rising to her paws to face her attacker.
Fear crashed over her like a wave. The thing, a canine-like animal with rusty brown fur, was nearly twice her size. Its large bushy tail lashed back and forth, and saliva dripped from its jaws. It let out a sort of yip, before leaping forward, displaying its rippling muscles beneath a shiny pelt.
Esotere hopped backwards; even in her frightful condition, her step was embraced with unfathomable grace. She bared her sharp teeth in a snarl, flattening her ears against her head and raising her slender tail in dominance. "Back off," she hissed to the thing.
It barked at her in a foreign tongue, snapping its jaws angrily. Once again the animal stepped forward, flexing its curved claws and swiping blindly in Esotere's direction.
She dodged each blow; after the third, she dove underneath the enemy's raised leg and raked across the flesh. Immediately angry red blood flooded from its leg. The animal whined, and stepped back slightly. Esotere rose her head elegantly, and when the fox proceeded forward again, she dropped her haunches and swiped at its neck. One of her claws caught in its long fur, and blood welled up around her paw. She tore her claws from its matted fur, feeling the rip as it broke through causing her claw to tear apart from her foot. Yelping with pain, she dashed away from the other animal, licking furiously at her paw. Once the bleeding had slowed, Esotere heard a thump from across her. Tossing her head up, she saw the fox crumple to the ground in a small pool of its own blood.
Pride overwhelmed Esotere as she trotted over to her kill, placing her uninjured paw on its rough flank. Raising her head, she let out a long, triumphant howl. It rang through the forest in an eerie yet beautiful song .. No more would Esotere be afraid.
She, in a way, felt invincible.
