I was happy! Everything in my life was turning out! BumbleHeart and I were in love. We had it made. Our pack members respected us even though we were not anywhere near the top of the pecking order. Everyone's eyes would light up when they saw us together. When they organized the hunting and border patrols they let us go together! Not all of the mates had it as easy as us. If I stop and take a look around there are so many pairs that just don't seem happy. Sapeye and oakfire were always arguing. Beewing and Bluefur were never together. One time I saw cherrysound sleeping with brackenfur even though she was with dustclaw.
Here I started off kind of fast my name is Dixie's Sky and I am here to tell you about my Pack. We are the roaring river pack. We have a border with Mountain Shadows the most "Vicious" pack of all. Rumour has it they eat each other's pups to establish their dominance.
Anyways we are nothing like that we respect the Alpine Rules. What are the Alpine rules you my ask? Well they are our ancestors rules to guide us. If we go against these rules you can get exiled out of the pack!
Rule #1
- Never kill another warriorEven when we get in full fledge battles over borders if we kill, our Alpha, Alpine, Ancestors will make sure that we end up forgotten!
Rule #2
- Protect your pack even at the cost of your life.The Roaring river pack has definitely lost some of the best warriors to ever walk these grounds by protecting their clan with their lives.
Rule #3
- Queens and Elders eat first.Even if our pack isn't catching enough food our elders who have already served our clan will eat second. But the ones that eat first are our queens. The wolves that are pregnant or feeding their pups get the first meal.
Well there are definitely more rules than that but I am just going to let that be for now. Instead let's just jump into our lives.!
You switch to the perspective of a beautiful wolf. Her name is Dixie's Sky and she has every wolf in the pack after her.
Blinking eyes as the mornings sun cracks through your tired eyes. Looking over she quickly realizes that BumbleHeart is still asleep. With quick but quite paws you carefully step over everybody making sure not to.... "grrrrrr get off my tail you big trunk!" "SORRY! I am so sorry SoaringHawk! Can I get you a piece off of the fresh kill pile?" He looks into your eyes. His icy cold blue gaze sends a tingle from your tail to your nose. Breaking the awkward silence after what ever that was that just happened... "Ehh err would you like a piece of food?" "Eh yeah that would be great thank you." You pad over to the fresh kill pile to quickly notice that it was completley gone. Not a scrap, no bones, feathers, fur, NOTHING! You pad back over to SoaringHawk. "I think you need to see this," barked Dixies sky concern bleeding out of her voice.
...
Soaring hawk reaches the fresh kill pile in two powerful strides. As soon as he sees the pile he states " I will go get my father" ( His father is Eagle'sCry the alpha of roaring river )By now more pack members are gathering around the pile. With a frightening howl EaglesCry gathers the pack. "I am sending out two hunting parties bring home all of the food you can get, We have pups to feed! BumbleHeart and SoaringHawk lead two patrols one on each side I want this kill pile full again. Pack dismissed"
Jumping to surround the two patrol leaders they call off their picks. In the matter of tenths of a second apart SoaringHawk and BumbleHeart call Dixies sky as their first choice. BumbleHeart looks at SoaringHawk as if to be challenging him over his mate. "Boys! Boys! What is going on here?" Dixie said budding in. "Well someone here is trying to get my mate away from me!" Challenged BumbleHeart. "She deserves more of a man than you will ever be Bumble." "HEY! THAT IS ENOUGH" shouted Dixie " Are you two going to grow up or are we all going to starve waiting for it?" We all know you two are after me but I'm happy with BumbleHeart! SoaringHawk wont you just lay off??? Now organize your patrols I'm going with Bumble. "
Still furious from what happened earlier Dixie jogs on without paying attention to her surroundings. She's crouched then pounding a rabbit with one swipe with her powerful paw. Suddenly creeeeeeek .................booooom....... collapse... snnwiwi2ieruthhrffidsusbfbfntsjhah she's knocked to the side the wind out of her body. Two scents flood her nose, Blood and BumbleHeart.
