featuring the loving, healing, and lazy, Lith
(word count: 763)

Lith opened his mouth and released a yawn. The night had yet to fall, and keeping himself up was quite a task. He loved his sleep after all. The sight of the other Ahzenai and their companions playing kept him entertained though. All of their joy as they played with sparklers was a sight to behold. His attention would often drift to the cannonball competition a few of the people were having; their Ahzenai watching from the shores in disbelief. Lith let out a hearty chuckle as he raised himself into a sitting position, stretching his forelegs along the way. He would never get old of things like these games. As Lith continued watching others play, the Vortex slowly began to move, its movement catching the attention of others and causing a collective gasp to go through the crowd as all words dropped and they hurriedly made their way towards the Vortex. Lith remained were he sat and watched quietly as a green marked paw reached out from the Vortex, the rest of the Ahz following soon after.

This Ahzenai stood stock, as if in a saluting stance, "Petty Officer First Class, reporting for duty, sir!” the Ahz said, sitting down only after Valcyon had replied. Upon closer inspection, Lith noticed the many scars scattered on the Ahzenai’s coat. There was also grey on his muzzle, quickly giving away his age. Lith listened intently to the Ahz as he spoke, surprised none the less by him. An individual that had no memory of their past was hardly an individual at all. Then again, maybe it was best this one didn’t remember. A past filled with war was hardly pleasant.

Slowly, but surely, Lith rose from where he sat and made his way towards the unnamed Ahz. His steps silent and his body moving easily through the crowd, and he was in front of the Ahz in no time.He greeted the veteran with a warm smile and sat a few feet from him. “Hello, dear friend. Let me just say what a pleasure it is to meet you, and that I am terribly sorry for your lost,” Lith said, referring to his memories. “I would also like to introduce myself – I am known as Lith.” At this time, he bowed his head slightly in greeting. “As I had said before though, I am sorry for your lost. I am not all that sure I could help, but who knows. Many are more than willing to help a fellow that has done them a great service. I am sure we could find another that could aid you in gaining your memories back though. If that is truly what you want. I could, also, possibly help with what your age brings. I am quite skilled in the arts of medicine and might be able to put some spring back in your step. How does that sound? Just enough to make you feel slightly younger than what you truly are.” Lith said with a smile on his face as he watched the Ahzenai closely. “This is all I can truly do to help you, though I wish I could do more for someone that has done so much. Well, maybe if you do decide to let me help you, we could come up with a name fitting for an Ahzenai such as yourself. That way you would still be able to start off somewhere new if we are unable to gain your memory back. It won’t at least leave you to empty handed.” Lith glanced around him and noticed a few were silently waiting to approach the Ahz as well, it would be rude of him not to allow others a chance to speak to him. Quietly, Lith stood, “I know I have spoken quite quickly, and for only a short time, but I think it best if I gave others a chance to speak to you as well. If you wish for my help, simply look for me, and I will be more than willing to give it.” With that, Lith gave a small goodbye and disappeared back into the crowd with ease. His bright coat easily blending in with the foliage that grew in Ahzen as he drew further away from the Vortex and crowd gathered around the Ahz.

Lith’s heart couldn’t help but go out to the Ahzenai, it was in his nature to help one so lost. Of course, he would not be hurt if the Ahz decided to go with others. Lith was always offering to help though, no matter what.

Ahz Name:

Soldat
Why did you choose that name?:
Soldat means soldier in French, and seeing as he is a soldier, I can't just name him that, so I translated the word to another language, and I found this name perfect for someone like him.
Woo:
Crystina held a rubix cube, she fumbled with it sliently, blocking out other sounds except the song she was listening too. She raised her head, when she heard her room's door open, '' who are you? '' she mumbled. The lady with curly blond hair sighed, and sat beside her on the bed, '' I'm your mother Crystina. '' Crystina cocked her head, '' Crystina? '' The lady, sighed once more, '' your name is Crystina. '' '' I see.... I see... '' Crystina mumbled back. The lady stood up, and walked out of the room. Crystina placed down her rubix cube, and sighed, looking at herself in the mirror, if only I can gain back my memories. It is hard to live without it.. she thought.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Crystina cried sliently outside in the garden, she looked at the moon, and recalled back what happened earlier in the day..

Her 'mom' said, '' Crystina, eat up. '' Crystina nodded, and chewed her food slowly, swallowing it, before asking her ''mom''', '' Why are you so nice to me? '' Her ''mom'' said, '' You're my daughter, I'm your mom. understand? '' Crystina shook her head, shoving a spoonful of rice into her mouth. Her ''mom'' suddenly stood up, and snapped '' can't you understand simple logic?! I had enough! '' Crystina suddenly retorted, '' It isn't my fault, I got into a accident and forgot everything! '' She ran out of the door.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Crystina stood up, since she can't remember her past, she will create her future. Having heard of the Ahzenai land before, she quickly made her way towards it, heading into the strange forest. After a few hours, she stepped onto something prickly. The hedgehog snorted, '' yes? '' She whispered, '' May I have some directions to the Ahzenai island please? '' '' Head west, then when you see a cave, head inside. I wont say any further, in the cave, there is some directions. '' it sniggered, and walked off. Crystina glanced unsure, but decided to just follow it's directions. On how way, she met many interesting creatures, and found out, the hedgehog directions was true. But as she entered into the cold cave, she shivered, and was walking for so long, her feet started to become more sore, all of a sudden, she started to fall for no particular reason. She said, '' what-?! AHHHHHHH!!!!!.... ''

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Crystina quickly stood up, and patted the dust of her knee. She glanced around, it was dark, she could easily guess it was a tunnel, most likely a secret tunnel to the Azhenai land? She walked for what seemed like hours, and brushed against something fury. She shrieked, shocked. But it turned out to be a fluffy brown bunny who was nuzzling the ground for something. '' Hello.. '' She murmured, and squatted, tucking a strand of loose hair against her ear. The bunny twitched it's nose, '' Hello, are you on the way to the azhenai seeker cave? You might not be familiar with name, but that is what I call it. '' Crystina nodded eagerly. The bunny pricked it's ears, and squeaked, '' you are just in time, there is one here. Lemme show you the way, little girl. '' It started running. Crystina smiled politely, and jogged after it.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The bunny lifted it's paw, and pointed in front of it, '' head north for a few minutes, and you will reach the cave. '' it squeaked after leading her through so many paths. Crystina was about to thank it, when it ran off. She shrugged, and started walking towards the entrance, and was greeted by a light, not so bright light. Crystina was rather shocked to see plenty of people, walking about, and playing games. All of a sudden, she saw a Azhenai, a solider, type. She went over to someone and asked, '' what's his name? '' '' no name, you can name him. '' they said tiredly, '' and, he lost his memories, just to add in. ''. Crystina nodded politely, and walked over to the Azhenai.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

'' Hello, I am Crystina. You look rather anxious.. '' she murmured. She placed her hands in her pocket, and found her rubix cube, she placed it in front of him, '' it will help you to calm down I think, well, it works for me. I'm rather sorry, I didn't came in tme to hear your speech, but I heard some from others. '' she smiled happily and continued, '' Just like you, I lost my memories in a car crash, I can't remember my past, but I can create or find my own future. So do you. I need to say sorry again, I didn't come here prepared and all... But I just want to let you know, I am the one who doesn't talk much, I like to have company, in the library, to enjoy the peacefulness. '' she smiled, and stood up, and waved goodbye.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

'' oh yes, I almost forgot, '' she turned her head, '' your name shall be Soldat, it means solider in French. It just came to me, before I left. If you don't want to pick me, it is fine, '' she paused, '' find a good friend to enjoy with. ''

Ahz Name:
Sidney
Why did you choose that name?:
My father's name is Sidney, and he is a Lt. Col. in the United States Marine Corps. He's served in Operation Desert Storm, Operation Desert Shield, Operation Iraqi Freedom, and Operation Enduring Freedom. My dad has been in the Marine Corps for 27 years now, and his legacy as a Devil Dog will be something this Ahz will have to upkeep.
Woo:
A tired man wearing digital camo walked, in crutches, into Ahzen a little before the Vortex swirled and spit out the new Ahz. He was worn out, not just from the journey but from the trauma that had surrounded him on the way there. He needed a friend.
When the man looked upon the new - or not so new - Ahz, he felt a strong connection with the older sailor. But, odd as it was, he felt a strange sense of nervousness to speak with the Ahz, especially when a different Ahz approached and spoke with the warrior easily. Still, as the day wore on, he felt more and more obligated to at least say hi. So, late in the afternoon, trying his best to look calm and collected, he neared the Ahz carefully. The man saluted him and gave a name: "Lance Corporal Joshua Xael. Nice to meet you."
"I'm not really sure how this stuff works, but I guess I can tell you about myself. I'm a Marine - just got back from Marjah. We were just doing a little bit of watch, because the area had seen small-arms fire. Next thing you know, some of the insurgents attacked. We took cover, started throwing grenades, and then something hits my foot really hard." Xael gestured to his cast, and then resumed speaking.
"Broke my ankle. Lucky for us, my buddy Lnc Cpl. Moore wasn't hurt, and he went out there and gave us cover 'til we got backup. He's getting the Navy Cross." he lapsed into silence, unsure of how to continue.
"I got a leave, but I'm not sure if I wanna go back to all that. I may just retire soon, settle down somewhere."

"Anyway, it was nice to meet you - maybe we can hang out sometime?" he wasn't entirely sure what everyone came and talked to the Ahz for, but Joshua Xael thought he'd given it a worthy shot. Perhaps he'd made a new friend.

Listening to each suitor with the utmost respect, the Veteran scrutinized them with a keen eye. He had just about made a final decision when he was approached again, and he could feel his heart jump. She was just a girl, all flustered and shy, offering him some sort of colored contraption. It looked like a segmented cube, and he cocked his head slightly to the side when she spoke. There was trouble in her eyes; not the bad kind, but like she was going through something too. His long ears perked forward when she spoke a name- Soldat. He liked that. It wasn't too unique, which he didn't mind. Even when he had been in the service, he hadn't been keen on too much attention. He'd hated the spotlight, and had preferred to shine only when he was needed.
Eyes widening briefly at a sudden flashback, the Veteran remember a piece of his past: amidst the dirt and dust, blood dripping down his face from a fight he had ultimately won, he had met someone; Thinking harder, he remembered a female Ahz, with white fur and gorgeous, bright eyes. This little girl reminded him of her, and he gave a soft smile. She was the one, and it seemed like she needed him as much as he would need her.
Standing slowly, he nodded thanks to each suitor he passed before catching back up to the young girl. Smiling softly, he reached forward to gently nuzzle her, a comforting interaction that told her he was there. "I'd rather enjoy that peace with you, young one," he said softly. "Because I'm sure we can help each other, without a doubt. Now come, let's take a short walk. I'd like to get to know my new companion, and how to work this strange contraption," he smiled, gently offering her back the Rubix cube.

Congrats Blackberry, Soldat has decided to leave with you!
Seeing all of the names and tributes to family really made me smile; my grandfather also served in World War II, and was on Omaha Beach. He's irritating, but I'm still exceptionally proud of my veteran.
Keep the memory, because as long as that is kept, then no life passes in vain.

Right after the departure of Soldat, Ahzen didn't have to wait long for its next companion-seeker. In a sudden fury of oranges and golds, the vortex swirled like a tornado made of light; it was going much too fast! Valcyon, concerned as to why the Vortex was acting in such a way, climbed onto his announcement rock and watched, feline brow furrowed in confusion. But, soon his (and the suitors') questioning gazes were answered.
With a powerful leap, a bronze-colored Ahzenai exited the Vortex, a wide grin on her face as she sailed perfectly over much of the sandbar, and creating long skid lines in the sand when she landed; no doubt this was an athlete! After a moment in the afterglow of a perfect leap, she stood straight and released a loud roar, marking her entrance.

"Habari!" Valcyon announced with a small chuckle.

"Hello Suitors," she grinned. "I'm looking for a challenger. Some friendly competition, if you will. Think you can beat me in a race? Well then, I'm right here waiting," she said, tail flicking with excitement, anticipation, and, most importantly, a whole lot of pent-up energy.
