Your POV
"I guess I can share my past," I started. "Here I go....

"I was born to a Lupine, my mother (M/N), and a human, my father (F/N). I grew up in Eclipse Valley with my three older siblings and my younger twin siblings."

"What are your siblings' names?" Aphmau asked, interrupting me.

"Connor is my older brother. My oldest sister is Valery, and my other older sister is Becca. The twins are Eric and Destiny."

   "Can you name your siblings in order?" Aphmau interrupted me again.

   "Valery, Connor, Becca, me, Eric, and then Destiny. Anything else?"

   "Not right now."

   "Okay. So I grew up in Eclipse Valley. I was always the outcast and picked on because of my ears and tail, caused by my messed up genetics." I looked at the ground, remembering the loneliness and pain. I continued. "Most Lupine, half or pure, are born with no ears or tail and a wolf, werewolf, and human form. As you can see I have a tail and ears." I flicked them as a demonstration. "I can also only turn into a wolf. No werewolf form. Because of my differences, I had very few friends. But one of them, Lillia, was like me. We were both picked on and sought each other out when we were hurt. We knew the pain the other felt." I paused, remembering Lillia with her black hair, green eyes, and wolf ears and tail. I must have been quiet for a while because Aphmau spoke.

   "(Y/N), are you okay?"

   "Yeah.... Just remembering good times," I said with a weak smile.

   "Oh. You don't have to continue if you don't want to," Zoey offered. I shook my head no. They deserve to know.

   "Aside from Lillia, I also had two human friends. They were brother and sister, Taylor and Julianna. Taylor was my age and Julianna was two years older. She didn't wrestle with me and Taylor, just watch from the sidelines.

   "One day, when I was 11 years old, I went to go play with Taylor and chat with Julianna. When I came to their village," my voice hitched. "It was destroyed. Completely, utterly destroyed. I saw someone rooting through the rubble where Taylor's house had once stood. I ran to them, howling in anger that they were there."

   "Wait, howling?" Laurance asked.

   "Oh, yeah. I was a wolf."

   "Just out of curiosity, what color wolf are you?" Aphmau asked.

   "(F/C)."

   "That's so cool! I wish I could be a purple wolf. Then I could talk to Thorgi, Cookie, Puma, Phoenix, and Jiggy." She paused, then saw my confusion. "My dogs."

   "Oh. Well the man saw me coming and when I jumped on him, he hit me. I fell, and I think I broke a bone, because it hurt like the Nether."

*•*•*Flashback*•*•*
   I ran towards the man, leaping in the air and landing squarely on his armored back. He grabbed me by the neck and tossed me down, into the rubble. I felt pain in my head and in my leg, but I was too enraged at the thought of this stranger looking through my friends' stuff. I got back up and jumped toward them again, only to be met by the flat end of their now drawn sword. I fell again, but managed to stand before they hit me with the hilt of their red sword. I blacked out.
