You all know the Legendary Lone Hero Marock, but what you all don’t know is what happened to him in his puppyhood. Well this is how it started.

        One night their were two wolves named Mara and Roke, and laying down next to Mara was a cub named Marock. He was suckling on his mother’s milk as she looked at her first child. Mara licked Marock and smiled at him. She started singing her family song to him. During the song, Marock fell asleep from the humming of his mother. After the song, it starts to rain. The family song has brought the rains and healed for many generations. When Marock fell asleep, Mara looked at Roke and smiled. “So what are we going to do when Marock is old enough to live on his own?”, she asks. Roke chuckled a bit,” Maybe we can sit back and relax”. Roke laid down next to Mara and nuzzled her. Then they both fell asleep.

(6 months later)

        Marock was jumping on Roke and nipping his ear playfully. Mara was laying down and resting. Roke laughed and played with Marock. Then Roke caught a scent. He lifted his head and sniffed the air. He grabs Marock and gives him to Mara quickly. “Get to a hiding spot quickly”, he says. He runs into the bushes. Mara grabs Marock with her mouth. She runs to a hiding spot and places him down. Then a loud bang from a gun goes off. Marock looks at his mom and sees her eyes wide. Then Mara collapses to the floor. ”Momma?”, he says nudging her. She doesn’t move or answer. “Momma!”, he cries out with tears in his eyes. He hears another bang. He lifts his head and he knew he had to run so he started running. He was running as fast as he could. The he crashes into two legs. He looks up and sees the gun pointed at him. He was covered in fear. Then out of nowhere Roke jumps in front of Marock. Then another bang came from the gun and Roke falls to the floor. “Daddy!”, he howls out with more tears. He turns and starts running again. Bangs were coming out of the gun and bullets were zooming past him. He was running for his life. Low branches were hitting his face and he was stumbling from some of the tree roots on the ground. Then a bullet hit his shoulder and sliding on it slightly, making a very nasty cut. “AH!”, he yipes and falls to the ground. Some of the rocks on the ground cuts up his face a little. He laid their motionless. He saw red on the ground and felt the pain. He lifts his head with his vision very blurry. He heard the hunters yelling out in victory and heard the steps of their feet. He looks at the bushes and sees them moving.. Then an Indian came out. Marock had a feeling that this was the end. He gets up slowly. He was very dizzy. He wobbles a bit and then he fell and went unconscious. The Indian grabs Marock quickly and hides. He sat their with the unconscious Marock in his arms while the hunters ran by. Then their was dead silence. The Indian looks at his hand and sees blood on it. He looked at Marocks shoulder and sees the wound that was life threatening for cubs. He got up and headed to the village. He gets to the village and goes inside his wigwam. As soon as the Indian comes in, his three year-old son, Jackie, runs up. “Daddy!”, he yells out and hugs him. He smiles,” Hey their son”. He tries to hug him without spreading blood on him. Jackie looks at the cub in his fathers arms. “What is that?”, he asks a little curious. “It’s a baby wolf. Normally called a wolf pup or a cub.”, he says lowering the cub for Jackie to see well. Jackie looked at him and saw the redness on his shoulder and saw the wound too ,”What happened to him?”. Jackie’s father raises Marock back up,” He got shoot by some hunters. He could die if I don’t hurry”. He walks up to a pile of bundled up blankets and places him down. He reaches a shelf and grabs some herbs and places it on his wound. Then he bandages the wound. He gets up and washes his hands. He grabs his bow and arrows and walks up to Jackie,” Come on son. We need to let him rest”. They leave and hunt. After a while, they come back with a few rabbits. Jackie’s father places down the rabbits and his weapon and checks up on Marock. When Jackie’s father got to him, Marock opens his eyes a little. He groans a bit. Then he jumps up in fear when he saw Jackie’s father. Jackie’s father comes up to him slowly, then he slowly places his hand on his snout,” Shhh, don’t worry. I won’t hurt you”. Marock settles down a bit but was still shaking in fear. “ Son give me some of the meat”, Jackie’s father says. Jackie gives him some of the meat. Jackie’s father brings the meat up to Marock. He sniffed it and then started to eat it. Jackie’s father smiled. After Marock finished the meat he licked his hand. Jackie’s father stroked his head and smiled. ”You’re safe now young wolf”, Jackie’s father says.

And this is the story on Marocks puppyhood.
