Wolf Pack

This is a Choose Your Own Adventure game.
All text and posts belong to me, please do not steal it.

This is currently a work in progress. Please do not post on this thread, your post will be deleted.
To keep the thread clean, please post on the Official CYOA: Wolf Pack Discussion Thread. I will be posting updates there and you and other players could talk about this thread.
Although it is a WIP, it is still playable. Feel free to play!

Rules:
There is only 1 rule and that is to not post on this thread. Please post on the Official CYOA: Wolf Pack Discussion Thread instead.

Warning
Before you play, keep in mind that this is the life of a (fictional) wolf. There will be violence and mentions of blood (injuries or dead prey). It won't be super graphic or descriptive, but it will be mentioned.

How to play:
You will start on Post 1. You will then be given choices to click on which will direct you to the corresponding post. Your adventure and results will be based on your choices.
To keep it fun and less predictable, try not to read ahead or read posts that isn't your respective choice of action.

In my CYOA, you will need a something to keep track of points (paper or pencil, digital notepad, etc). You will also need a coin to flip.
You will be starting off with 5 Health Points, 5 Hunger Points, 5 Happiness Points.
If you lose either all your health, hunger, or happiness points, you lose the game and die. Your points can not go over 5, regardless of how many “add points” you encounter. Of course, you could always play again :)

Without further ado, here is the Introduction!

If you ever lose all your points, click on the respective one:
Lose all Health
Lose all Hunger
Lose all Happiness

You slowly open your eyes, the light making you blink quite a few times. Looking around, you see yourself surrounded by grey fur.
Standing up for the first time, you walked over to where the light is brightest, a huge hole shining with blinding light. Curious, you walked over to the hole while stumbling a little bit. Stepping your tiny grey paw outside for the first time, you saw what you thought was the greatest thing in your few moments of your adventurous life.

You see great and tall trees, rich with healthy, green leaves. You saw a pair of birds flying around, looping and flying through the sky chasing each other. You see the vast, blue sky with fluffy white clouds flying by. Your eyes sparkled with excitement and amazement.
Suddenly, a twig snapped to the right of the forest. Instinctively, you turned your head towards the sound. Out came the forest is a group of large figures walking towards you, dragging a dead carcass of a stag.

One of the figures walked over to you with it’s head and tail high. You stare in amazement at the grandness the figure produced.
The figure lowered its head so he is level with your head. He licked you on the cheek once before lifting his head again.
A moment later, a shadow stood over you and you get knocked off your paws. You stood up, shook your fur and yapped in greeting to the ones who knocked you over, your two littermates, and to the shadow who stood over you, your mother wolf.

The grand figure seemingly smiled down at you and this time, he spoke.

Welcome young one, to our pack!

Crouching, you have your head and tail low to be hidden. Ears perked for any sudden noises. Your eyes are focused on only one thing in front of you.
A hare.
The white fluffy hare was fit. Plump, but fit. You noticed that it’s burrow is right behind of it. One wrong move, you would lose your prey. Currently, it was unaware of your presence as it quietly chews on a red berry. Your eyes looks around. It was surrounded by berry bushes, all full with green leaves.
Maybe you could hide in those to go around the hare.
You also see twigs and sticks near the hare. Suddenly, the hare’s head perked up to the left. Curious, you also looked to the left. There was a large plump pigeon that flapped its wings, trying to get into flight. Though, one of its wings hung limply at its side. The hare, noticing it’s unharmful presence, went back to eating its food. You have to make a move soon before the hare finishes and leaves.

What do you do?
1. Continue to crouch and stalk to hunt the hare
2. Stalk towards the bushes and try catch it with the element of surprise by jumping out of the bush onto the hare
3. Ignore the hare and stalk the pigeon, it’s easier prey. Then later go back to hunting the hare

[Shadow2204]

You decided to continue to crouch and stalk to hunt the hare. You accidentally stepped on a twig and the hare’s head snaps up and immediately runs towards its burrow. You chased after it, but it was already gone. You thought of the pigeon and went to check if it was still there. You turned around to find the pigeon but you see something you would not have expected. A tangy orange fox has snatched the pigeon, killing it, and is staring at you with menace in its eyes. You have to bring something back to pack, it would be embarrassing not to.

What do you do?
1. Fight the fox for the pigeon
2. Leave and go back to the den, you didn’t catch it anyway

[Shadow2204]

You decided that the element of surprise would be successful and stalked towards the berry bushes. You slid passed the bushes without touching any leaves so it wouldn’t rustle. Eyes focused on the hare, you leaped above the bushes, landing right on the hare, killing it with a snap of its neck. Satisfied, you went to see if the pigeon was still there. Picking up your prey, you walked towards where the pigeon was. You didn’t see the pigeon, but you see dots of blood and a few feathers on the ground. You suspected that something must have caught it and is long gone by now, but maybe you could track it down.

What do you do?
1. Leave and go back to the den
2. Track down the pigeon

[Shadow2204]

You decided to ignore the hare and hunt the pigeon. It was easier to hunt since it had a broken wing and the hare was bound to escape anyways. You padded over to where the pigeon was. It had stopped it’s fruitless attempts to try fly and is now pecking at the ground. You crouch, but something orange caught your eye. You see a tangy orange fox crouching and stalking towards the pigeon with a hungry look on it’s eyes. The pigeon, still pecking at the ground, was oblivious to its hunters.

What do you do?
1. Wait for the fox to catch it and then fight the fox for the bird
2. Jump at the pigeon and kill it before the fox does

[Shadow2204]

You decided to fight the fox for the pigeon. It growls a warning at you but you ignore it. Although young, you were almost twice as big as it.

What do you do?
1. Growl to scare it away
2. Leap and bite it

[Shadow2204]

You bare your teeth at the fox and it runs away with the pigeon in its jaws. You leave and go back to camp. As you enter camp empty-jawed, some wolves stare at you with disappointment. Your ears flatten with shame but your stomach growls.

Take off 1 point of hunger. Flip your coin. If it lands on heads, take off 1 point from happiness. If it lands on tails, take off 2 points from happiness. What do you do next?

1. Talk to your mother wolf
2. Grab something from the prey pile
3. Go out and try again
4. Rest in your nest

[Shadow2204]

You shrug. Your prey was caught, it was something to bring back to your pack. The pigeon wasn’t much of a meal anyway. Carrying the hare, you leave to go back to your camp. Proudly, you placed your hare in the prey pile. From the corner of your eye, you see your mother wolf smile with pride. Your stomach growls from hunting.

Add 1 point of happiness. Take off 1 point of hunger. Your next move:

1. Talk to your mother wolf
2. Grab something from the prey pile
3. Rest in your nest
4. Go out to hunt again

[Shadow2204]

It was too suspicious for your liking. You buried the hare underneath a bush. You raise your snout in the air with your jaws slightly open, tasting the air. You can smell the pack’s scent, nature, pigeon blood, and a strange smell. You follow the scent and after a couple tree lengths, from a short distance away, you see a fox munching on the already half-eaten bird.

What do you do?

1. Growl at the fox
2. Chase the fox away
3. Fight the fox
