Gender:{Usually given- the pups with both gender signs you can pick} Male
Personality Tenahi is a rebellious pup. From the very time he could walk, he tested the patience of those around him. His little nips or trips were recieved with annoyed glares, much to his delight. As he grew, he became more witty, and began to practice the art of pranking. He loved to see his sister yelp in surprise as the laid down on a frog which he had carefully hidden in thier beding area. But, when and if they began to cry, he would crawl over and lick thier tears away, sorry for what he'd done. He's a softie at heart, although you'd never guess it on first glance.
Art or Short Story: ..::Tenahi's first hunt::..
The gangly pup shook his coat, sitting up. After yawning, he streched his body out, carefully stretching each muscle. Sun light filtered in through the mouth of the cave in which his family live, and coated the smooth floor with bright rays. Tenahi glanced about, seeing one of his sisters chasing a beam of light. A smirk danced briefly across his face, and he got up. Nodding briefly to his parents, he set out. He halted suddenly, thinking. Hmm... Today I was supposed to do something... He thought, frowning. Tenahi began to slowly walk again, his steps silenced by the thick green moss that covered the ground. He stopped short as a rabbit lept out of the shrubs, and dahsed away. He resisted the urge to chase it, for he had better thing to do. Hunt! Today is my first hunt! He thought, holding his head up high. The first hunt of any pup is significant, for it shows that they are old enough to fend for themselves. Tenahi picked up his pace, and trottrf toward the medow where his family normally hunted. As he near the hunting grounds, a faint rustling caught his ear. Lowering his body close to the gorund like he'd seen his mother do, the pup crept awkwardly forward, his haunches unblaenced. Peeing his nose through the bushes, he saw where the noise was coming from. An odd, spikey creature was digging at the foot of a tree, grunting. Stupid animal, It doesn't even se me. Tenahi thought vainly. He crept out, the yipped when he was behind the animal. it lept, then rolled into a ball of quills. Perplexed, the pup cirlced around it. He'd never seen such a thing. after a few minutes of examining it, he reached out a paw to nudge it. In a flash of movement, the ball lashed out at his paw, nailing it with a painful spike. Tenahi yelped loudly, leaping back. He licked his injured paw, casting angery glares at the ball of spikes. Oh, is that the way it is? He growled, standing and facing the animal. He hardened his resolve, then lept at the creature. He collieded with it second later, feeling numerous quills poke into the soft pads of his paws. he let out a howl os distress, and lept away again. The creature seemed to be mocking him! Now furious, Tenahi decided to try one last thing. He crept forward, and poked his nose into the creatures stomach. For a second, nothing happened. Then, a piked tail lashed out and caught the pup across the face. That was the final straw. Yipping sadly, Tenahi raced back toward the cave, quills jutting out from his poor little nose. His mother was waiting outside, and as he nuzzled her, he cried in pain. " Be still, young one. You have much to learn." She murmured, and the sound of her voice calmed him. His sister giggled, and he growled softly in embarrassment. His mother lowered her muzzle, and began to pull out the quills. Tenahi sighed, steeling himself for her to pull them. He had learned one thing that day.
Never trust a spikey animal.
Whatever the heck it was, anyway.
( I hope this is okay... D: It's for pup #1)
