Most prized item:
A red dog collar.
Six is not a pet, despite the fact that he wears a (tight fitting) red dog collar. He is a wild Viscet, and has always been wild.
Something else he has always been, is alone. Though there was a brief pause in his loneliness, when he met a stray dog, which he referred to as 'Lunch'. Such a simple thing...something so extraordinary. Six did not intend to make friends with the dog, in fact, he had come very close to eating the dog. It was often that humans chose his home to dump their unwanted pets. He could never understand how easily they claimed to love something, or someone, just to toss it away. And toss it away, one man did. Stopping his truck and letting his dog out. A tennis ball was retrieved from the mans pocket, and soon it was thrown out into the forest. The instant the dog ran after the ball, the man was back in his truck and speeding away. Six had watched this from his resting position some distance away. The man had never noticed him, and the dog hadn't either. That was, until Six finally rose, his aim being to head home. The moment the dog heard him, it was hurrying in his direction. Six was perplexed, as usually dogs, and most other animals, avoided him. Not this dog....This dog stood before the Viscet with ball in his maw and tail waggling excitedly behind him. For a moment the two did no more than stare at each other, Six feeling quite irritated in the process. Turning again to leave, the dog drop its ball and bark at Six, causing him to turn, lunging forward with a threatening snarl. The dog lept aside, barking playfully and dropping into the typical doggy play stance. Hind end in the air and upper body low. Glee shown clear in the dogs eyes, leaving Six terribly confused. It was then that the dog got its name. For Six threatened to make it into Lunch. The dog did not understand, though, and insisted that Six play with it. The Dog pester Six until the Viscet finally took the ball and toss it as far as it could. Turning and hoping to flee before the dog could return, he found himself cut off by a ball wielding dog some few paces away. Irritation continue, and a small fit occurred, the simple dog all the while treating things as if they were a game. In the end, a tired Six gave up. Laying himself down and finding the dog eager to curl up beside him. Six protest, only to find the dog once again eager to make things into a game. Yet again Six ended up giving up, the dog finally settling in next to Six and relaxing. Six could see why the human wanted to get rid of the dog....
As time went by, Six found himself oddly attached to this cheerful and optimistic dog, which became named Lunch. (He would threaten to make it lunch when it got really annoying to him.) The ball was eventually torn to shreds, so they would end up using bones, sticks, or whatever else they could find, to play fetch. They wrestled, played chase, hunted together. It was an odd sensation. To no longer be alone, but to be friends with something that was not his own kind. Sadly, all things must come to an end, and the story of Lunch was just another circle of how careless humans could be. The forest they live bordered a road, and Lunch was known to stray close to it searching for food that humans had tossed out of their cars. It was on one of these days that a car happened by, hitting poor Lunch. By the time Six found him, the dog was already gone, leaving Six, once more, alone. Death is a common thing in the wild, but this circumstance hurt Six deeply. His beloved Lunch was gone, and the time they spent together left a gaping hole in his heart. From the body of the dog, Six removed the collar it wore, placing it about his own neck as a reminder. There are no tags upon it, it is simply...a dirty dog collar that belonged to his Lunch.
