Story of how his/her first halloween:
On the darkening night and as the full moon casted down pale light onto the mountainous region, a figure moved rapidly from boulder to boulder, leaping and digging his sharp claws into the hard surface. He lurched forward and scrabbled up the side of a cliff, barely getting onto the top of the rocky edge safely. As the wind ruffled his long, crimson mane and he heard more of his pack calling out to each other, he turned to return back to the safety of the cave he lived in, but the glimmering orange lights from the neighboring city below the mountains caught his attention.
From the low ledge he laid himself down on, his eyes could spot pups run about dressed in odd costumes and their parents dragging them from den to den. Cocking his head to the side, he leaped down from his hiding place and stalked through the small forest that separated them, keeping to the shadows as his black pelt blended in, but the white skeleton marking him stood out. His claws dug furrows into the soft ground as he tried to keep quiet and he almost looked like a walking skeleton, eerily nearing the quaint village near his home like any monster would do on the spooky night.
Sticking his head out from a bush, he got a better sight of the odd ritual taking place before him. These pups ran from house to house, eagerly knocking on the doors in their weird furs, begging for food like the lowly scavengers that always pestered him when he killed something. He watched brightly colored pieces of food being placed into a pumpkin before then ran off again, going over to the next door to repeat the odd ritual.
Things even got weirder as the moon rose far above everything and in the middle of the sky. By then, the ryku opted for stretching out on the ground and letting his head poke out from underneath the dense foliage. Older pups, most likely in their teens, started to throw white paper everywhere, covering the dens with the useless stuff and even going as far as ringing a small bell from somewhere. Rounded ears perked up as he watched the teens scurry off and hide behind trees as an elder walked out with a killing device.
Snarling and growling low in his throat, the ryku started to back away before flinching as a shot was fired off in the air. He stayed put though, waiting until the teens left and more pups started to come by for seconds. One of them wandered away from its parents, nearing where the skeleton beast hide until a little foot kicked him in the nose. He bared out his teeth aggressively in a fearsome snarl at the human pup before sneezing, rubbing his sore nose with his paw as the small creature bent down to his level.
"Here you go doggy!" the oddly dressed pup said, placing a piece of food in front of the red maned beast. As he watched the pup run back to his parents, he sniffed the...food curiously before he licked the brightly colored ball once, bringing it into his mouth to taste it some more. Soon, a burning sensation filled his mouth as the red food burned his tongue, startling him to spit out the devil food and run off to the nearest spring to rid himself of the awful taste. This odd ritual the humans called Halloween didn't seem fun at all, the ryku thought to himself as he bent over the spring-feed pond and lapped at it. Perhaps next year he would avoid the red balls of doom and the agony it brought with it.
