Raising Wolf
Prologue
A large wolf pack ran through its territory, hunting down the prey that they were after. A young Alpha male, known as Karu, led the pack at full stride. The pack chased their prey right to the border of their territory and stopped inches away from the edge. The pack looked on as their prey fled into another pack of wolves' territory, leaving them either howling in frustration, or growling in annoyance.
The pack hadn't eaten for days. Karu's pack slowly made its way back to the den at the heart of their territory, where Karu's mate, Nevada, was keeping guard of their latest litter of cubs. Karu this time took up the rear, making sure all pack members were present.
Karu, by chance, glanced to his right, and noticed two silhouettes slowly making their way through the forest. Karu stopped and watched these two moving shadows closely, growling slightly. He watched as they paused at a group of bushes, and then continued to move swiftly in the darkened forest.
Karu waited until a few minutes after they had gone before investigating. He had been brought up to be cautious.
He ran toward the group of bushes that the shadows had previously stopped at. He was picking up strong and new scents. To be honest, he didn't like these new smells.
He was near the bushes when they rustled slightly, making him jump. Karu instantly went into defence and growled, warning anything dangerous to keep back. The bushes rustled again and there came a strange cry. It sounded much like a human cry, only more shrill.
Karu approached the bush cautiously, before looking the other side of the bush. There, on the other side wrapped in a white blanket, was a human baby! Karu was more surprised than anything. Karu looked around as if to see who it belong to, before stepping nearer toward it.
The baby quietened down as Karu approached. Karu observed the baby's features. Karu had to be honest. This was about the weirdest human baby he had ever seen.
It had big amethyst eyes, black and red spiky hair, with blond spiky bangs and extra blond bangs aligned with his spiked hair. Karu took pity on him. It was then that the pack's Beta, Sync, came running up, followed by Nevada.
'Alpha Karu, you should really come back to the den no-' Sync began, but was cut off when he glanced at the baby.
'It was left here. I'm assuming that whoever left it here, they're not coming back' Karu growled to Sync and Nevada.
Sync glanced again at the baby.
'We should eat it. No one has had food for a long time' Sync suggested. He got a load of growls as his reply.
Sync was about to protest and remembered his rank and knowing he had no right to argue back, he relented. Nevada approached the baby.
'We'll keep him. Raise him as our own' she growled softly. Karu was a little unsure.
The baby laughed as Nevada nuzzled him under the chin.
Karu smiled proudly.
'So, what are you going to name him, seeing as he's one of us now?' Karu inquired. Nevada thought for a moment.
'Yami. Because we found him in the dead of night'
Yami cooed and laughed once more, waving his hands at Nevada.
'That's right. We'll take care of you. We'll look after you, my little Yami...'
