"Get over here, Angelina! I can hardly take waiting for you anymore! Hurry up!"
Angelina scurried over quickly to her Queen, Softstep. Her golden hair was unkempt and frizzed, for she hadn't had a lick of sleep since the Queen came back from some oh-so-important ambassador meeting with another pack. Being a servant, this was typical behavior to be expected. It was already surprising enough she had access to an outfit, but this was surley for looks, not out of courtesy from Softstep.
"If it takes this long everyday, I'm cutting your food back. Don't make me add hours, Angelina."
"It won't happen again, I promise."
Angelina did as she was asked, and fetched a golden neclace, whatever it was for. She hadn't the heart to ask, ever since the last time, which deducted her food for a week.
Why keep this job? The thought crossed her mind nearly everyday, and was answered by the same thing, everday. Niko. He was the sun of infamous Softstep. A prince, regal, beautiful, someone who had a future other than cleaning after the likes of a Queen. Niko was going places, while Angelina, was to stay dormant, here.
Yet, he payed attention to her. He kindly told her 'thank you' after everything she did, and seeing his soft grey eyes boar into hers made her heart melt. His soft voice was soothing to her ears, very unlike that of Softsteps, always yelling and demanding. Niko rarley asked anything of her. But when he did, Angelina did it with passion, just trying to impress him. Adding a fragrence to his pillow or basil to his meal, she did it with joy.
"Angelina."
The servant whirled around, and saw her prince charming, looking as regal as ever. She felt her cheeks get hot, and bowed down immediatly to sheild them.
"Stand up, dear. It's okay."
"Oh, Yes, Prince Niko." She obeyed, but kept her face hidden.
"You know, I've told you time and time again, I have no problems with you calling me Niko, for all you do."
Angelina studied her paws."Yes, Niko. Anything you need? I can fetch you some water, or fresh bedding, anything you nee-"
"Stop. It's nothing, that I need, persay. I just wanted to thank you for everything you've ever done here." He stepped closer to her, and Angelina could feel his breath on her ears. "All in a days work, Prin-"
"No, you put up with my mother everyday, which I'm sure is never pleasnt. And I want you to know," He stepped even closer. "I admire you for that."
Angelina looked up, and blinked, for he was closer than she expected. "N-N-Niko, it's nothing, I promise. And your mom will be mad if she sees you here with me, you know, because you're supposed to be pure and royal and never associa-"
"Please, stop. My mom cannot control my decisions. Just, meet me in the garden sometime tonight, alright?"
Angelina blinked twice, and nodded.
FFFF, n00b story XDdunno if i should continue or nott.

No.
Abhorrette-- well, Sugarrette, I suppose her name is-- has collapsed to the ground, and lies crumpled on the ground, limbs bent at awkward angles, motionless. I run to her, lowering myself to the ground, trembling, flicking my head around desperately, completely helpless. "No, no no no no," I whisper, reaching my nose out to touch her lifeless face.
Her eyes snap open, and I pull away sharply. Her bright red eyes bore into me, holding me there, fixated in her gaze. Her breathing is sharp and quick. Pain hides behind peacefulness in her stare, though her face looks rather calm overall.
"Danny." Her voice is soft, light, as delicate as falling snow, and as sweet as syrup, though a little raspy. I suppose she hasn't used her true voice for years. But she recognizes me, she knows me, and that brings relief to me, maybe she will recover! I've saved her, I have!
"Sugar." My voice remains a whisper as I try to reign in my excitement. But I can't keep back my idiotic grin.
A smile flickers across her face, but she does not have the energy to hold it there. "You saved me.." she murmurs, and I detect a strange sadness in her voice. "You killed it. I'm free... but I... can't stay here."
My smile instantly fades to nothing. "You ... why not?" Total confusion sweeps over me. Can't she live here with my pack?
"I've been trapped like that for six years, probably," she tells me. "I was just a pup when it posessed me..." She sighs lightly, closes her eyes for a moment. Then, she looks back up at me, and this time, I see a weariness in her gaze. "I've been waiting for you to find me for years." I don't know what to say, so I stay silent, looking at her in puzzlement. "Travel west, Danny, there's food there. Tell them about me. Do you promise?"
Something isn't right. Something's wrong. My eyes start to sting. "I... yes, yes I'll tell them everything. And I'll never eat another rabbit as long as I live."
Sugar smiles again at my joke, and looks up at me affectionately. "Thank you, Danny. Thank you for helping me escape." She holds my gaze for a while, then her lids droop shut, and she sighs out one last breath, all traces of pain erasing themselves from her gentle face.
Then nothing.
No.
"No..." I am frozen in shock as the tears begin to slide down my face. One by one, they fall off the end of my muzzle, and land on Sugarrette's lifeless cheek. I close my eyes, and bow my head, crying silently for what feels like years.
When the tears have dried, when all that's left is emptiness, I open my eyes again, to get one last look at her.
And something's different.
The colours on her face are distorted. I reach out, carefully, trailing my paw along her face. And when I pull away, the red has come clean off, revealing what once was, the soft, pure white fur beneath. This is too much for me, the tears begin to flow again.
And as the first snow begins to fall, as the snowflakes drift down to land on her cheek, melting there on her still-warm skin, I press my forehead against her neck, and I whisper five words to her.
"You are safe now, Sugarrette."
