Aniu." I sighed, "She loved us so much. One day she went out hunting and never came back. Our father we never knew." I continued, "I saw the way you acted about her den and our names. Will you please tell me why you had your reactions?" I finally said.
Deni got up and went down to her den and left Huron and I. "Come with me." Huron ordered.
We went and climbed the mountains and stopped at a cliff. He said, "Look. What do you see?"
I looked off the cliff and I saw a huge tree. "That tree." I finally whispered.
Huron nodded and then revealed, "That is the Tree of Hope. It is where Aniu's den was. Your names shocked us because there is a prophecy on you and your siblings. It is said that four pups of different pelts and powers that are born at the Tree of Hope, shall bring either peace to the packs or destroy them. Aniu was a silver soul. She has the power to contact and protect all of wolf kind."
"That means our mother is the Wolf goddess." I concluded in awe, practically paralyzed.
Huron nodded in the moonlight, and continued, "You are the Moon pup. You have the powers of the moon in you paws. Solen is the sun pup. He has the power of the sun in his paws. Tierran is the Earth pup. She has the power of the Earth in her paws. And Aaron has the powers of the sky in his paws. He is the sky pup." He stared at my chest, "That moon turns silver in the moonlight. That means you goddess name is Silvermoon."
"My name is Luna Silvermoon?" I asked.
Huron nodded in the midnight moonlight, you will save the packs. I know it, you and your siblings have the power of the packs in your paws. And with that he howled to the moon and all of the packs joined in from all around, The Midnight Howl, I couldn't think. It then started to softly rain, all I did was listen to my rain pour into my skin and clense my mind.
The days went by faster and faster as my siblings and Arlina and Echo and I grew up. Soon, enough we all learned how to hunt in the woods, catch fish in the river and fight each other using different teqniques like Aaron could alude every bite and kick using his amazing speed while Tierran uses her surroundings to help her fight, and Solen uses his astounding strength to tackle and knock the wind out of his oppounants.
We also learned about the packs that live around the town of Nome. There were three packs in total; The Shadow Peak Pack, full of dark wolves that fended for themselves and were very deadly when in battles and it is said they have never lost a single battle.
There was also the Cliffside Pack, full of wolves that are quick, fast and smart. The Cliffside Pack could catch the fastest rabbits in the forest. They were also very good at climbing the cliffs that surround their campsite. The cliffs are very difficult for attackers to climb through with enough energy to fight. It is almost impossible to win a battle against the Cliffside pack.
And there was our pack, the Shaded Forest Pack. We were unique. The river ran through our forests and gave us a healthy supply of fish. The river also attracted small animals such as rabbits, mice and other rodents. Everything needs water and that includes deer and caribou. Us pups witness our older pack members defeat old or weak caribou and have a feast.
Winters were difficult; my siblings, Arlina, Echo and I learned that very quicky when the snow began to fall. Our winter pelts aren't very thick so we got very cold very fast. We also learned that the river froze. The animals were also all gone and we practically starve if it isn't for the rabbits that still roam the frozen forest.
I however love Winter. I love the cold and the snow. My fur blended in with the snow and I found it fur to sneak up on others while they're completely clueless. That's one thing that made me different from Solen, Tierran, and Aaron. Solen loved the Summer while I could barley breathe from the heat. Tierran loved the Spring a lot. She loved the smell of the flowers bloosoming. And Aaron loved Autumn. He loved the sounds of leaves crunching as we walked on them.
Soon we learned all the costoms of the Shaded Forest Pack and we learned our places in the pack. Tierran and I became very aware of Solen's admariation for Arlina and how much Aaron adored Echo.
One day we were watching Aaron and Echo chatting and Solen and Arlina leaving to go for a walk. I whispered to Tierran, "Isn't it amazing. Aaron has fallen for Echo and Solen's in love with Arlina!"
"Yah. But I wish I had someone." Tierran sighed. I felt the same way about it. I wasn't jealous but I did wish I had that special someone.
"I don't know maybe we'll find that special one in a different pack." I assumed still a little upset that Tierran and I don't have a crush.
"Maybe." Tierran sighed.
"I know we will meet someone." I sighed and looked at Aaron as he looked at Echo with love filling his eyes, "We all deserve love."
