Erina
“Erina, I’m so sorry.” My sister, Arba looked down at my newborn pups sadly. It has been the most hated year of my life! My mate Chaka died. He was the wisest, strongest, and bravest of the whole pack! His beautiful white fur shone and he had deep green eyes and was always happy! Even when before he died, the shine in his eyes were gone, but he always kept a smile, hoping for the best. My creamy fur had mud splattered all over it as I rested in my cave. All my pups had died.
They were all gorgeous, most of them creamy and white colored except for the last one. He was a total disgrace. I cried more of his ugliness than the death of my first litter. He was scrawny with black fur and boney legs. I and Arba could only stare at this disgraceful THING… This monster!... Until… It had moved. It was alive! This distorted creature had to be alive instead of the rest of my pups. The next day the pups were buried except for the… thing.
“You still must treat him as your own and care for him!” Arba said as we stared at the ugly thing.
“How can I care for this thing? It’s scrawny and boney… and even though it was alive it didn’t nurse! Not that I want it to, but still! It’ll probably die anyway!”
“You must not say that Erina! Give him a chance!” The thing… My son... Started to whimper. I ignored it.
“At least name him…” she growled at me.
A name! How about distortion, or monster or useless!
“I don’t know! Name it after the leader! I don’t know!”
“Then his name shall be, Niju.”
Chapter 1
I began to hunt leaving Niju at home alone. Perhaps some wolverine or bear will kill him.
I came back with caribou. When Niju began to…To… walk towards me! Only one day old and the thing was walking? Since his eyes were closed he bumped into my leg. He was so fragile; he fell on the floor… I heard no whimpers… Was it dead? I went and nuzzled him just to make sure. Then he opened his eyes. I screamed and flung him against the wall. I cowered into a corner. I wanted him to die. I wanted us both to die.
Chapter 2
“Mommy, Guess what! I killed all the ratties in the cave yesterday! Now we can be safe and sound when we sleep!” Niju said wagging his tail triumphantly.
“Good for you. Now mommy… Is going to hunt. I’ll be back in the afternoon with dinner.”
“But mommy, why do you always go hunting and come back so late unlike the other mommies and daddies?”
“So we can get more food. Now mommy has to go.”
“But what if were not hungry? Then what do we do?”
“We save our food.” She replied a bit annoyed.
“And why can’t I come and watch like the rest of the puppies do? And why can’t I go outside this cave and play?”
“Because… your… um… Special… that’s right. Um… Special.” Then she ran out very annoyed.
“Aunty Arba?”
“yes dear?”
“you’ll come home early… right?”
“yes dear.” She said and nuzzled him then ran off.
Niju
I grew up into a teenager. I was still uh…scrawny, but I was very strong. One day it was hunting time again. My aunt, Arba walked out of the cave to see a mob of angry wolves.
“It’s the devil’s aunt! Kill her unless she brings him out!”
“I never will! “ She barked. No matter how distorted I was, she loved me so much…
“Fine then!” All the wolves attacked Arba, and killed her. I saw the whole thing and jumped out of the cave. One wolf screamed and ran into the cave wall and died. All the others panicked and ran into their caves. I attacked all of them. The wolves marched inside of his cave and killed my mother too.
A thiunder storm came and all the wolves ran away leaving me alone with my mother and Arba. I howled the longest, saddest howl I ever had in my lifetime.
Chapter 3
That night I ran away so far. I ran into this city... Nome… Suddenly I ran into this beautiful brown and white husky.
“whoa!” She giggled. She was so… ugh… cheery!
“Hi there! You seem new! I’m Willow! What’s your name?” She said joyfully. She seemed a bit younger than me. But she was about the same age.
“Niju… I’m Niju.” I said.
I walked away when she jumped in front of me again. UGH!!!
“Where are ya going?” She asked curiously.
“Nowhere…Just…Nowhere…”
“Then why don’cha stay with me for a little while! It seems you have now home…”
I have no clue why I was thinking of this, but the minute she said No home, I thought of Nome. Uh… Get it? If you say No home REALLY fast it sounds like Nome! Uh… um... Anyway… I stared at the little pink ribbon around her neck. On it was a heart shaped gold tag that said uh...Marina… She either stole it or lied to me. I nodded then followed her to her to an alley. Okay, I knew it was definant that she stole it.I met a few people. And older stray named Blazer, Sarba another stray, and Spark.
Blazer was the leader. The strongest. He was a very dark red color with black ears and tail dip. He had green blazing eyes. Pheh, probably the reason they call him Blazer. Sarba was a dark tan with a creamy colored muzzle, belly, tail and socks. She had very light blue eyes. For a stray, she was quite elegant. Spark was a scrawny little dude like me. He had light silver fur with white socks and tail dip. He had dark orange eyes that had much of innocence in them.
Blazer
Chapter 4
“Spark!” I shouted.
“Yes… sir?”
“Bring Niju here. He is ready to prove himself worthy to be the leader or the group. I am for now, too old and must move on.”
Shortly later, two sharp blue eyes appeared in the shadows. Out of the darkness, walked a strong, bold, full grown wolf, growling.
“I’m ready, Blazer.”
Author’s POV
Blazer then lunged at Niju.
Niju hit the ground and skidded across the snow. He pounced on Blazer and dug his claws deep into Blazer’s back. Blazer let out a loud yelp of pain. All was quiet except for the sound of mixed yelping, barking, growling and snarling. They fought in the blood stained snow until Blazer hit the ground with a hard crunch.
Niju had won.
“Your ready, kiddo. Remember me.” Blazer choked. Then all fell silent as Blazer let out one last loud yelp. For a few minutes all of Nome, the people, their dogs, children, and pups, was pure silence. Then Niju howled. The gang looked at him.
“What was that?!?” Sarba gasped in shock.
“He’s a wolf!” Spark snarled.
“You killed our leading in an unfair match or proving yourself worthy! NOW YOUR GOING TO PAY!” He snarled.
“NIJU RUN!” Screamed Willow.
Niju ran out of town, Willow followed. They ran into a small forest.
“Did we lose him?” Asked Niju.
“I think so.” Willow panted.
They were squished inside a small cave and as they tried to pull out they came face to face.
They both giggled embarrassingly. Willow blushed. As they grew older they soon became mates. Willow had a pup that was black and white colored with light blue eyes. They named him Steele.
