Well, I am really just starting the fanfic and I don't really have any real plot thought out yet just a bunch of drabbles and they are below this note:
Fanfic Sample: (Scene: When they first meet... I may keep writing a bunch of love drabbles here)
Beyond purple mountains you could barely make out the outline of the early morning sun. Large vast plains stretch out for miles and, as we follow the tracks of the reindeer that have traveled here so many times before, you may notice those of another animal. It is neither cat nor dog, but that of a new arising breed preferably known as a kishroo. And in these tracks that go through the mud and snow they tell a story of how the bond of love will break the hate of others for hate is just another kind of love.
You could hear the anger rasp in his breathing as he stood above her. There Shale lay on her back, the snow hurled itself on her fur but melted just as quickly as it had came leaving Shale soaked. The large male caribou, Xcaven, dug his antlers deeper in the soft putty-like mud. Her rose eyes widened in terror. She felt the breath leave her lungs and not come back. Shale waited for what seemed like many minutes and Xcaven lifted up his front hoof ready to strike down the creature that tried to kill his niece. "Mercy!" Shale yelped out quickly, that made Xcaven stop. "What did you say?" he gasped in a voice no louder than a whisper. "Mercy." Shale repeated in the same volume.
Xcaven remembered the day he last heard that word. He was just budding his antlers when he and his mother went out to the creek to look at the new flower blossoms that had bloomed there. His mother started telling him a story of how life is a precious thing and should be taken care of as if it were your own. Neeva, Xcaven's mom, looked up at the stars, the nights beautiful blue glow shone over her silver fur. Suddenly, as if lightning had flashed from the surrounding spruce trees, a large male wolf bit onto his mother's leg. "Run!" Neeva bleated, as she drew back her hoof to kick the wolf in the face. A yelp echoed out behind Xcaven, he stopped and looked back toward the trees to see his mother start running towards him. Xcaven smiled but it quickly fell when he saw three more wolves burst out of the trees. He turned and ran faster, but to his shock the male was in front of him. In Xcaven's memory the wolf was a hideous creature covered in the blood that had ran down from his nose and stained his white fur. Neeva jumped in front of Xcaven and bleated and angry warning in the air. The wolves started to close in. Neeva avoided attack after attack, but it was too late when she realized that they were not trying to hit her that was trying to tire her out. Well it had worked and the bloody alpha knew it as he thirstily walked forward. His white fur gleaming over his body as his muscles tensed for the kill. "Wait!" Neeva yelled. “Please have mercy and if not for me at least for my son." The large wolf looked at the young stag. He grinned, " son, I suggest you leave this may get messy." "Run!!" Neeva yelled to him. Xcaven ran and ran; he turned slightly and got his last look at his mother.
A small tear formed in Xcaven's eye as he looked at the dog like animal. "Fine you will have my mercy as long as you don't hunt the members of this herd." Shale was surprised at her captor’s decision. Without thinking she lept up and nuzzled the reindeer until the scent of prey hit her nostrils.
(Scene: Trouble is lurking, when Shale saves the calf)
Xcaven kept looking out of the corner of his eye. 'Why is she here? I did not invite her to join us; I should just kill her now!' Xcaven thought to himself. "But she hasn't broken her promise." Skelta, Xcaven's aunt, said as if she were able to hear his thoughts. Xcaven smiled down at his aunt's aging face. "Now whatever gave you an idea like that?" he asked calmly. Skelta knew better than to fall for his deceiving smile. "You did." she said calmly. Xcaven shook his mighty antlers playfully in disagreement.
Shale looked down at her paws. 'What am I even doing here? I should leave.' Shale's mind wandered, but even as Shale turned to leave she couldn't bring herself to go. It felt like some magnetic force was keeping her here. Shale couldn't help but sneak a glance at the bull leading the herd. Shale looked at the rest of the herd around her. The reindeer went out of their way to avoid her as if she carried a disease. 'What do I care? They're never going to like me anyway.' Then the question rose in her mind again 'What am I doing here.' But before Shale could answer herself a bleat echoed from the male that saved her life. "We must cross the river he said so buddy up and help anyone who falls to the current." Shale looked around; nobody wanted to be her partner. The front of the herd made it smoothly across to the other bank. As the middle started to cross one of the young bull calves wanted to show off to his friends and ran ahead without a partner. The calf did not anticipate how cold the water would be.
Of course each winner will be given credit for their character in the fic and or in fanart.
