Kennel:P54
Section:Common Creatures
Name: Liekki (Finnish for "Flame")
Breed:Cat
Age: 12 moons old (1 year old)
Why do you want this animal?&What will you do for this animal?: She just seems to have this burning spirit...... and a pelt to match it. ^-^ I am hopefully going to start working on my newest graphic novel, and I am looking for some more feline designs. It is quite hard to find quality ones that will fit with my story line! Plus, this cat will fit with my other character, Scorchedheart. Not as a mate, but an understanding friend. <3 This cats design seems to have some effort put into it, and it isn't a bunch of random scribbles, but rather yet a design with a meaning..... Where as the animals personality is reflected in it's pelt, similar to a fursona (This pet won't be my Fursona!) Outside of the book though, she will be a well cared for character. :3 It is very fun to draw her, and I have already drawn several pieces of her. (I haven't scanned them yet. )
Personality: Liekki is very withdrawn, and she trust no one but herself. After a hard life on the streets, she has learned to mistrust everyone. She may lash out, but sometimes will break down if she has a flashback of her cruel past.
Dislikes: Other cats (Especially Toms), tresspassers on her territory, rain, getting her feet wet, and Crowfood (Trash).
Likes: The Sun, the warmth and power of fire, peace and quite, the feeling of fresh grass benieth her feet, and cool fall nights.
~History/Backround~ WARNING! A little BLOOD IS IN THIS STORY, BUT IT ISN'T DESCRIPTIVE. JUST LETTING YOU KNOW.
Liekki shuddered as the cold wind and rain sliced through her pelt like a blade, the torrent of storms continued mercilessly as she tried to sleep in a dark corner next to a human's building. She wrapped her fluffy tail around her nose, trying to keep out the cool draft, when suddenly she heard a crash across the alleyway. She looked up, franticly searching the darkness for signs of life. Finally her gaze rested on two dark, sodden forms standing by a small metallic trashcan. She began to get up to try and run away, but the creatures both had already spotted her and trotted over to where she was. Once they drew near, she recognized two dark tabby pelt through the rain. It's Rat and Brick! Liekki thought in terror. They were like the rulers of the street, tormenting the other cats just so they could get what they wanted.
"Well, what do we have here?" said Rat as he approached Liekki.
"It's that scrappy old kit that we chased out of our place yesterday!" Brick hissed.
"P-P-Please..... I'm no threat to either of you..." Liekki replied shakily.
"Any cat that is in our territory and stealing OUR food is a threat!" Brick snarled in reply.
Rat calmly placed his tail on Brick's shoulder to calm him. "Brick, you must calm yourself." He whispered gently. Then he rested his icy blue gaze on Liekki.
Liekki knew what was happening. Rat always tried to act calm so he could gain the trust of the other cats and get them to let their guard down. But as soon as you turned your down, Rat would lash out, and you wouldn't know what hit you.
"I'm just leaving." Liekki said, trying to act calm as she got u.
"Oh no your not!" Growled Brick. "Not without being taught a lesson."
Liekki froze, and then looked to Rat. Surly he'll try to calm Brick again... she thought. But he didn't. He just sat there, and Liekki realized that he agreed with Brick. She quickly made a dash for the street, trying to get away from the two cat. She ran as fast as she could, but the two toms had been fed well and had strong muscles under their shaggy coat. She heard their paws thudding gently on the pavement behind her, when Brick reached forward and grabbed her by the tail, dragging her back. She suddenly found herself in a swirling mass of fur and claws as she struggled to free herself. Still the two toms worked together fighting tooth and claw. She yowled and screeched in pain, but she was helpless. The quick fight was over as soon as it had begun. Rat and Brick leaped away from her toward a small crate in the ally. Her head was spinning and she felt pain all over. Her tail, or what was left of it was covered in fresh blood. The then realized there was a large scratch across her left eye, and it throbbed painfully. She looked up at the toms, now cleaning the fresh blood off of the paws.
"Our work here is done." Rat replied icily as he stared at her once more with his powerful gaze.
They then walked away, leaving Liekki sitting in a pool of blood, in the cold, icy rain……
-------------
6 moons (months) later……
----------------
Liekki walked down the street, striding in confidence. The loud, angry buzz of human activity no longer bothered her. She turned into a small alleyway, then squeezed through a fence and into a human yard. She perked her ears up, listening for any sign of prey. She suddenly looked up to see a small sparrow resting in the holly bush nearby. She slowly crept up on it, though she didn’t know why she even bothered. Stupid city birds never paid attention anyway. With one leap, she jumped up and batted the surprised bird out of the bush, and into her waiting claws. She licked her mouth in content and began to eat. She sat up, hearing a sound right outside the fence. She walked over and hopped up onto the fence. She looked down to find a small she cat, no more than 7 moons old, digging through some small plants. Trespasser! Liekki thought with discontent. The she cat was white with a strange mix of fiery colors in her pelt. It actually seemed a bit similar to her own. She watched the she cat for a moment longer. She must be hunting…. Liekki growled to herself. She bunched up her muscles and leaped off of the fence, right onto the other cat’s back. The she-cat yowled in surprise at the sudden attack and crashed to the ground in a heap. Liekki held the trespasser down as she struggled, trying to escape. Then Liekki heard a shout.
“Scorchpaw? What’s going on back there?” it yelled.
“I’m under attack Gingertail!” Screeched the she-cat beneath Liekki’s claws.
Two cats scampered around the corner. One was a ginger and white she cat with deep gray eyes, which were now wide with fear. The other was a huge, muscular brown tabby tom, with striking amber eyes.
“We’re coming!” yowled the brown tom.
They both dashed forward, running right toward Liekki. Liekki’s eyes grew wide as she realized the two cats were going to attack her. She tried to scramble away back into the human’s yard, when the brown tom slammed into her side. Liekki screeched in pain as she fell sideways, crashing into the fence. She looked up, right into the tom’s amber gaze.
“Leave us alone!” He hissed
“As soon as you get off my territory!” Liekki yowled in defiance as she sprang up, ready to face the huge tom.
“Stop fighting, both of you!” said a voice from the other direction. Both Liekki and the tom turned around to face a black, white, and gray she-cat. The she-cat was obviously afraid, but she acted calm.
“My name is Snowsoot.” The grayish she-cat whispered calmly. “I’m sorry that my friends attacked you. We mean no harm. We are only passing through.”
“What! But this cat attacked US!” yelled the brown tom.
“Quiet Brackensky!” Snowsoot growled at the brown tom. “This cat just said we were trespassing on HER territory, so we have no right to be here anyway.”
“Yes, we are sorry for trespassing.” Said the ginger and white cat.
What!?! These cats are APOLOGIZING? I attacked them, and they’re acting like it’s their fault! What strange cats….. Liekki thought in surprise.
“I am Gingertail.” Said the ginger and white she cat. She then pointed her tail over to the cat Liekki had attacked. “That is Scorchpaw, and the brown tom is Brackensky if you haven’t already heard.”
“Why should I care who you are? Any cat that is in my territory and stealing MY food is a threat!” Liekki spat at them.
“Gingertail looked rejected and slowly padded away.
“You are welcome to stay with us if you would like. You know, as an apology.” Said Snowsoot.
Now these cats were inviting her to stay with them?!? Liekki thought again.
“Why should I trust you?” Liekki said.
“We promise, we would never hurt you!” Said Snowsoot.
“Well, you just did!” Liekki spat.
“Oh come on, it looks like you’ve been in plenty of fights. Looks like your used to being attacked.” Brackensky meowed.
Liekki growled at Brackensky, but she knew he was right. She did have a lot of battle injuries. But it was a hard life on the streets.
“So where are you from anyway?” Liekki questioned.
“We are from the woods…. Or we were anyway. We lived with for clans, united under Starclan.” Snowsoot said quietly. “We were driven out by a massive fire.”
“Do you have bees in your brain?!? This stupid she-cat doesn’t know anything about Starclan, or even the clans!” Laughed Brackensky.
Snowsoot swatted at him and growled. Liekki perked her ears up in surprise as he backed off a little bit.
“We would love to tell you some more about the, if you would like.” Snowsoot hesitated.
“I….. I guess so.” Liekki stuttered.
“Great! Why don’t you com back to camp with us…. Uh…….” Snowsoot started.
“It’s Liekki.” Liekki said calmly as she followed the new cats.

I would LOVE to adopt

Kennel: P67

Section: Common Creatures
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Name: Isis

Breed: Winged Serval Cat

Age: Just a little Serval
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Why do you want this animal?: She is very adorable. But every time I looked over her, I smiled. I love servals, and how she has peacock wings, and a cute bow <3

What will you do for this animal?: Get her lots of art, and add her to my /being updated/ charrie thread
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Personality: A huge music fan. Very spontanious in arts and any type of music. Talented in singing /only to her favorite songs/ and creates own music. Considered shy among adult supervision, but when with best friend, Ebony the Burnese, they are two crazy, and fun loving girls. Good at trick questions and tests.

Dislikes: Bad music, people watching her, and failing a test, usually trick questions. Doesnt appreciate being told she is wrong, since she is told that ALOT. Strongly dislikes Tilly and Samantha, but Samantha isnt that bad. And when Ebony tells her the truth.

Likes: Ebony <3, music or art, singing, and being a crazy "rockstar." Has a secret thing for Jessie. Loves her father, and her now dead, mother. Cherishes everything about her life, excluding Tilly.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
History/Backround:

Wow. The only word that could describe my happiness. I was the youngest girl to make it to Hollywood. Broadway. Even the youngest to become a famous singer! How could a teenage girl become this famous? Well, it is all quite simple actually...

Cause you're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in then you're out
You're up then you're down
You're wrong when it's right
It's black and it's white
We fight, we break up
We kiss, we make up
~Katy Perry

My purple ipod was playing Hot 'n Cold, by Katy Perry. I had my earphones in, and the music blasting. No one could tell me what I can and cant do. "ISIS GET IN HERE NAOOO!" Except the beast....

"The Beast" is my step-mom. I despise her. My mom died a while back, and my dad married Tilly. Tilly had a daughter of her own. Everyone said she was a "cougar" even though she was an actual ocelot, just like Tilly. Her daughter was Samantha. She had tons of black markings, plus she was dark orange. I didn’t hate her, but I didn’t like her. She was a know-it-all, and showed off a lot. Tilly was the same way, but only I did hate her.

I walked into the kitchen, thinking that she couldn’t do anything. The beast had a nasty grin on her face. In her hand, was Dad's favorite porcelain cup that he got from his favorite Baseball player. She looked me in the eye, mouthed the words "You're dead.." and dropped the cup on the kitchen floor. CRACK!

My eyes were wide. No, not like the 'uh okay' eyes, the 'Oh my gosh I cant believe you just did that' eyes. Sadly, my dad heard the crash and came rushing down quickly. His light blue eyes were filled with depression and anger. He pointed his finger at me. "YOU--!" The only word that could come out of his opened mouth. Then, Tilly turned to me, smirked and then said "Why?! Why did you break his FAVORITE cup?!" I was about ready to tear her to shreds, until my dad pushed me hard upstairs. "YOU ARE GROUNDED FOR....TILL EVER!" And I was locked in my room.

Tilly wasn’t going to stop me from getting my way. I quietly opened my large window. Luckily, since Samantha liked roses, so we had a white rose vine down "our" brick wall. But it's mostly mine, since I was here before the both of those rotten fools. I slowly, yet quickly, climbed down. The thorns on the roses hurt my paws, but I dealt with it.

Samantha saw me, but she didn’t care. She shrugged her shoulders, and continued her long and boring conversations with one of her friends. I pranced away from there, hopefully Ebony will love me enough for me to stay with her. Ebony was a black burnese dog. Most people adored her, but not for looks, for her amazing and happy personality.

"Isisss!" Ebony called. No matter if we saw each other a 2 years ago, or 2 hours ago, we always miss each other. "Ebonyy!" I replied. We gave each other BFF hugs, and talked about the past day. Ebony was not surprised that Tilly did that to me. "Tilly is a nasty step mom, she only 'loves' your dad for the money!" She sighed and continued, "she is nothing but trouble. Eventually, once she marries him, she will kill him, take his money, and make you work for her!" I was serious in the beginning, until she said 'kill him.' That is murder, the one thing she cannot do to hurt me. I laughed silently and explained to her why it's un-realistic. She laughed to and told me about some movie.

We talked and laughed for some hours, and headed off to the charity dance & sing class. I always sing, while Ebony dances to it. I wasn’t nervous at all, until a heap of frantic people rushed around. Apparently, some famous guy was here to hire recruits. I didn’t care though, because I was here for something way more important than being famous. But my thoughts changed after...

Ebony danced her best, but only to reel in more donators, and because that guy was here. I sung normally, and the by-standers went wild, and donated a lot. I decided to finally get a look at the guy. He was a tiger, with pure snow white fur. He had a light green collar on, with the name "Jessie" on it. I whispered "Light green is my favorite color..." He was also wearing a black fedora hat. Jessie had teal blue eyes, surprisingly they seemed to be looking at me.

"Haha better close your mouth, stop making googly eyes at Jessie, and be focused. Don’t want the big boss angry." Ebony murmured in my ear. I shut my mouth tightly, looked away trying to be focused, and blushed. Was it that obvious I was staring? From the corner of my eye, before I started getting focused to talk to the big boss, I saw him smiling. He has a nice smile..."Ms. Isis! Pay attention, you want to have a job here, don’t you?" The words startled my thoughts. I rapidly looked the Big boss in the eyes. He wasn’t happy, more irritated, but he still wasn’t angry. I nodded and didn’t look at Jessie anymore.

The evening was over, and I sat on the stage with Ebony and the other performers. Jessie was deciding who would come with him to New York. I was hoping to be called, then I can spend time with him. Then I realized, I couldn’t go, because I was suppose to be grounded for till ever. I didn’t care though. It was either his own daughter, or his awful wife.

Jessie called up the best dancer, a couple more dancers, and this one male singer. "You, the black burnese. Your name?" She stood up proud, and replied Ebony. He nodded and continued talking. "Now, I only have one spot left," He looked at two female singers NEXT to me. I started feeling depressed, and angry. I was about to leave, but he kept on talking. "You, the Serval." I turned around, happy and wide-eyed. I nearly tackled him, but I stopped myself before I did. My face was literally 3 inches from his. He grinned and mouthed the word "Isis." I smiled and sat next to Ebony. A smile was glued to my face. Ebony nudged me, "You can stop smiling now?" I nodded and replied, "I would, but my smile is stuck..."

As we got into his large black limo, he explained to us how we will be split into different parts of the world. Ebony and I gave each other worried glances, and continued listening. He told us our first performance would be in Houston, Texas.

Section: Freaks of Nature
_______________________________________________________________________

Why do you want this animal?

セレナーデ、私はいつもキリンと呼ばれる不自然な人間との無限大があったとしての夢は私にとって夢です。彼は全面的に私の関心を引いたのは、私は同様に彼のために行くようになったうれしい摘み大変でしたが。彼は私の文章力を撥合計と私は彼に私を呼び出して取得する場合は病気が幸せになる。私は自分のフォームは、私は本当に私はこれで楽しい時間を過ごした、彼をどれだけ表示願っています。

Serenade is a dream come true for me as I have always had an infinity with the unnatural beings called the Kirin. He totally got my attention and although it was tough picking I'm glad I got to go for him as well. He total plucked my writing skills and Ill be happy if I get to call him mine. I hope my form show how much I really want him, I had fun with this. I have added japenese or chines Kanji to the top. His story may seem similar to the twelve kingdoms because that is where all y knowledge of Kirins come from. I have made it as different as I possibly can while keeping the info on the Kirin accurate as possible.


What will you do for this animal?:

彼は私の他のキリン、Kiazerと友達になり、私は、ときに私がすることができますアートを取得するためにプロ用になる彼は約頻繁に書き込まれます。私は、彼も、私は彼を取得する必要がありますしheadmateなるものとみている。私の形で私が学んだことKirinsのすべての私の知識を使用してしなければならない。

He will be friends with my other Kirin, Kiazer, I will make shure to get art when I can and he will be written about quite freqently. I suspect he shall also become a headmate to should I get him. In my form I shall be using all my knowledge of Kirins that I have learned.

_______________________________________________________________________

Basics


Name: Serenade

Breed: Kirin/Persian

Age: 1000 Years old, Kirins can almost live forever unless their masters betray them.

Appearance:

He has black strips on his legs normally used as a natural camouflage, his horn has gold bands around them that reflect off his eyes at night making him appear to be a predator. Around his eyes is a butterfly like marking that is supposed to make him appear scary. Hes has the words harmony, longevity and enlightment upon his back in caligraphy and the word trust is on his right front leg also in calligraphy. He has large tuffs of red fur on him that blow in the breeze.
__________________________________________________________________________
Mental Dispotion:


Personailty:

Innocent(無邪気な ):



Serenade is completly innocent, having never really killed in his entire life. Because of his Kirin heritage if he is around blood he will become extremely weak or even faint. He know there are bad things out there but he has been sheltered from all of that. Having never hunted he is mostly fed by the humans that care for him.

Nobel(無邪気な ):

He will bow down to none but his true master, and in fact is incapable of do so. If someone tries to force him to he will get a huge headache, or become very weak.

A hell-cat in battle(戦いの地獄猫):

Innocent as he is,if you try to fight with him he will fight back and maybe even win. He will not stand by and let someone assault or abuse him. A fight with him could prove quite dangerous but most wont try to fight him.

A sweetheart(恋人 ):

Despite his scary yet cute appearance, he is a real sweet heart. He has a love for all life, whether it be insect or elephant. He'd rather lick you then bite you and this proves to be what attracts most people to him. He has a big heart, and will always comfort you if you need to be comforted.

Passionate(熱情的):

Serenade goes around with a passion about him that lights up the room, everything he does seems to be filled with passion. He never does anything halfway.


All and all Seranade is a pretty well rounded little guy who enjoys life to its fullest and never gives up. People love to be around him because he has great carrisma and that draws people in. He alway uses his charisma for good purposes but sometimes he can us it without knowing he is. He keeps most of his powers well under wraps, but most times he cannot control them. On those time he is unpredictable but ussualy he can be read like a book.


Dislikes:

He dislikes being alone though he knows that most of his life he will be.

Fighting and blood really make him sick therefore he does not fight much, but when he does watch out he can be a hellcat in battle.

Predators are what he fears the most but he is well protected by his fierce looks not many predators will try to eat him because of them. Not many dare to hunt him either.

Rudeness to his true king will not be tolerated, and his guardians will see to it that anyone who does this is punished accordingly.

Likes:

Running is one of his favorite things to do and he is very swift when he does. He may not be very big but her does have the powers to run fast as a Kirin/cat twice his size.

Adventures are what he lives for and in fact he even pretended to have a few adventures when he was still in the sactuary for training for the real world.

Love is something he has never experienced himself but he loves to see it in actions because like him, love is ever ending and cant be chosen.

Helping other is one of the things he love to do, he loves it when he can make others happy,and in turn it makes him happy.

Song that Describe Him:

Innocence by Avril Lavighe: This song describes him perfectly, because he is completly innocent and has been since his entrance into this world. His never wants to loose that innocence, and vows to remain innocent for the whole of his existance.

Keep Holding On: He tries to always be there for someone,

Histroy/Backround:

♦ Juuni Kokki ♦ Unicorn Theme ♦

セレナーデは、1812年に生まれた
彼は断念したが、絶望していない
彼はこの世界で彼の場所を見つけるだろうある日知っていた

Translation:

Serenade was born in the year 1812
He was abandoned but did not dispair
He knew one day he would find his place in this world


I ran through the trees near my home confidently, knowing nothing would try to harm me. If they did their life would be forfeit as my guardians would kill them. I loved my gaurdians but especially the one called souless. She was like a mentor to me, and I loved her for that. The only other true friend I had was a Kirin that visited quite often, his name was Kiazer and he was the best friend you could ask for. He only would visit every o often though and often I was on my on my own for the many activities I would do.

I'd pretend I was off on my first adventure, off to find my true king. Of course I knew these games where not real but i could pretend and for now that all I needed. My guardians knew one day I would have to leave, it was only a matter of time.

Serenade paws thudded against the ground, the sound was loud because no other animals were around. He paused noticing the silence, then shot off again. He wanted to get out of this part or the forest, it was to dark and silent for his liking. He had heard a beast lived here of remarkable strength and power. He had no wish to run into this beast, little did he know she was already hunting him.

He started knoticing it was getting darker and stopped tremmbling in fear. This was not a normal darkening it has come on to fast, he huddled down preying for help though he knew it was possible he would get none. Suddenly a light burst throught the darkness, her horn glowing bright she banished it. Then she walked over to him and bowed, "I am Okami (not okami from the game guys)."

"I am Serenade," he said standing tall and proudly.

"You should be more carefull traveling through here. I will travel with you until you reach the borders." She said thus beginninng their journey together. Serenade didnt know it but Okami would help him more then he would ever know. He knew he'd still feel lonely but at least now he had a friend.
