Hello! ^^
Okay I got this idea from a documentry about primates, but they are not monkyes! XD
You get an explination about their world first and then you are introduced to the main chatacter. This is kind of like an prologe and the next chapter will be more story. I'm not sure about the rating because I don't know what you guys want ot read. XD (Something dirty I suppose XP)
Well have a good time reading. ^^
I don't own Naruto (I know I'm as shocked as you are)
Breeder and mate.
The breeders owns his or hers mate, they can have many mates if they are able to protect and provide for their families. In these families the breeder decides everything, he or she can do what ever he or she like but in a bigger group of different harems the breeder with most mates rules.
In this world of primitive half breeds of humans, the packs are big. Often a pack contains more than 100 individuals, they follow a strict hierarchy. If you don't follow your breeder you will be punished. The breeders decides wrong from right and the mates follow.
You can tell breeders and mates apart by looking at there manes. Mates have shorter manes that only travels down the neck and are also thinner than the breeders. The breeders mane is thick and goes down their back sometimes all the way down to the tail. The tail is also a way to see breeders and mates apart. Mates have longer more fluffy tails that are good to wrap around cubs while breeders have shorter tails.
Both males and females can be mates and breeders. It's just a little more unusual for males to be mates and females to breeders but only by little. The social structure is complicated and the discipline is hard. But for these half breeds it works.
When a cub is 13-15 he or she is obligated a mate or a breeder depending on how submissive/ dominance he or she is. When turning 14 you are aloud to start producing cubs, but only if you are a mate. A breeder has to wait until he or she turns 16 because he or she has to be proven to being able to protect and provide.
The breeders of higher rank choose if you are worthy, if you are not they kill you.
Battles between packs are common, but it's not only to gain territory. It's also a way to get new mates. Mates are often kidnapped in these battles if there breeder is else were, there for a couple of young breeders are to lead cubs and mates away during the battles. But it's almost always at least one who are to be taken away from the pack...
Gaara looked at the person in front of him, he didn't feel happy but not sad. The feeling closest to the way he felt was relief. The person in front of him seemed to be a little annoyed about is reaction, which was close to not reacting at all. Gaara got a push by his father and he understood that he was suppose to do something.
"Hello", Gaara simply said and he heard his father slap his face. Neji wrinkled his eye brows and studied Gaara for a while. Gaara swung his tail while doing the same at Neji. Neji had brown silky fur that he had let grow long, it flowed down his back perfectly. His eyes and skin was pale, almost like a cloud. Nejis tail was longer than most breeders and moved restlessly from side to side. Gaara turned to his father, who and a irritated face for the moment, and perked his ears.
"May I go with Neji now?" He asked and his father nodded. Gaara turned to Neji. Neji smiled a bit and stood up.
"Lets go", he said and started walk to the cliffs. Gaara followed, he felt a little uneasy about not living with his father and siblings anymore. But he was now Nejis mate and he was going to be a good one to. Neji reach for his hand and squeezed it a bit. Gaara felt like he was suppose to say something.
"Am I your first mate?" He asked, Neji was about his age so he guessed that he had been accepted as a breeder not to long ago. Neji nodded and turned to Gaara.
"Yes but not to worry I'm going to take good care of you", he said in a stiff voice. I wasn't assuming anything else, Gaara thought. Gaaras father was one of the top rank breeders in the pack and he was a picky picker when it came to giving his cubs away.
Neji showed his into a small den, it was big enough for them to stand and move abound without bumping into each other but Gaara was used to his fathers. But then again, his fathers den was filled with small cubs and their mothers. This was much calmer. Gaara looked over to the nest were they were suppose to sleep.
"So how old are you?" Gaara asked curiously. He just turned 13 and Neji could not be much older, if he was lucky Neji was his age and he didn't have to start sleep with him in three years. Being a mother never really appealed to Gaara, he didn't really like cubs. Neji seemed to be uneasy about the quiestion, why Gaara didn't know but who cares...
"I'm 15", he answered. He didn't seem happy about it. Getting your mate late was not something you really talked about. That meant that the high rank breeders didn't accept him as a breeder at first. Not that Gaara cared, he only cared that next years when both was in right ages Neji would want to have cubs.
Hopefully he get an other mate so Gaara could avoid getting pregnant. Not that it was likely, you didn't often didn't get an other mate until you had your first cub. Gaara sat down on the nest looking at Neji, the first day you were suppose to get to know each other so he tried to figure out good questions to ask him.
Gaara knew that now was when they were suppose to get to know each other and bond but he wasn't the person who met someone and made friends with them. He was kind of a loner and by the look on Nejis face he seemed kind of lost as well. The silence was a little awkward so Gaara tried to think of what his mother taught him about breeders and mates first bond.
"Come", Gaara said and sat down on the nest, Neji seemed confused but sat down. Gaar began to pick his fur and after awhile Neji relaxed.
"This is nice", Neji smiled.
"Gaara!" Neji yelled from the hill. Gaara looked up, he had been collecting food with the other mates. Gaara picked up everything he collected and started walk towards Neji. He wondersed what it was. Neji looked stiff and nervous, after a year living with him had manage to learn different modes Neji had. Gaara came up to Neji, who started to walk back to the cliffts.
"It's still light out, I should be collecting food", Gaara said while following him close. Neji grunted for an answerer, Gaara sighed. Neji obviously wanted to talk to him in privet. The pack was moving around then like ants. The only place they were alone was in the den.
When they got there Gaara placed the food he gathered on the shelf he dug out to keep the food stay good. He then turned to Neji, who and been waiting, with an asking expression.
"What is it?"
"Well...", Neji started with an anxious and maybe exited voice. Gaara had a feeling were this were going and he didn't like it.
"Tomorrow we will both be the right age and I was thinking maybe we could wander a bit deeper into the forest just the two of us and spend some time together."
As sweet Neji was in every possible way Gaara just wanted to scream and run away. Neji wanted cubs and Gaara didn't. That's that's, Gaara is the only mate in the world who doesn't want cubs. But the reason was simple, he didn't want to die. His real mother had died giving birth to him, his gandmom had died while giving birth to his real mother. The odds were against him. Of course Neji didn't know this and he was not to blame to want to have cubs, but Gaara was scared.
To not be here was a scary thought, if not live what else?
What Gaara didn't know was that faith was feeling kind this day...
