Violet wailed, her voice echoing off the tundra. Her mate Stalk sat beside her trying to soothe her as she pushed and pushed to get her children out of her. Iceberg, the healer that had come to help Violet give birth. Iceberg pushed Stalk out of the den. "What?" he commanded, confused.
The first pup popped out; Iceberg examined it "He," she finally concluded, the second pup popped out; "Another He," Iceberg concluded, The third and fourth popped out; "Both She's. This one is blind." she said, pointing a paw to the white pup with light grey spots. Violet was too tired to listen but she heard the 'This one's blind' part. She was speechless.
Lastly one more popped out; "Boy."
"What!?" Stalk yelled rushing back into their den. "She's blind," Iceberg said again pointing a paw back to the white pup with light grey spots. Stalk sighed, Violet wondered if he would drop the conversation on the blind pup. "Names?" he said, sighing again. "The first one is going to be called Remy. Violet barely managed her voice cracking but she managed to point a paw to the pure white pup. "And then Duke," she said again pointing a paw to the white-furred pup with light grey tips on his ears. "Siberia for the white one with dark grey splashes, and then for the blind pup Cyprus. Lastly for the black and white spotted one: Oreo" Violet finally concluded carefully trying to make sure her voice didn't crack. Violet passed out from exhaustion.
