Prologue
"Cinderfur, come over here! Firepup has opened her eyes!" Firepup's mother called over to her mate excitedly.
"Has she really? Let me see," Cinderfur came over to his mate in the nursery. An Elemental Wolf family having pups is a big thing for the four werewolf packs in the Forest Dimention. Cinderfur would have to announce it at the next Full Moon Meeting. "Her eyes are beautiful. Just like ours."
"I know. You know you're going to have to annouce this at the next Full Moon Meeting. The other packs will be happy that another Elemental Wolf has been born in The Pack of Fire."
"I know, I know. I'll also have to announce the deaths that have happened..." Leafheart looks confused at this comment. She has been stuck in the nursery all this time, so she isn't fully informed on what's happening in the pack.
"Oh, right. You don't know... Well, Berryfur, Hawkeye, Lightpaw, and Stoneclaw have died on a visit to our allies. I have a sneaking suspicion that those monsters have killed them on their way to The Pack of Shadows."
"Oh, a lot has happened in the time I have been away. Well, let's not dwell on this know, we can do that when it's time for them to be buried. Can you fetch Ashpup? We still need her to know that her younger sister has opened her eyes!"
"Right, I'll go get her know." As Cinderfur left the nursery to go get Ashpup, Leafheart looked down at Firepup. She smiled and asked her a question, "do you have anything to say?" Firepup looked up at her mother and answered her mother's question, "well, what does Cinderfur mean by inform the other packs? Also, what's the Full Moon Meeting?"
"Ah, you want to know what that is. Well my little Firepup, it is a time where all the packs of the forest meet under the full moon. All the Elemental Wolves inform the other packs of new Elemental Wolves that have just been born, deaths, and how the pack is doing as a whole. Before it actually starts, that packs get to talk to one another and get to know other werewolves. Any other questions?
"Well, what are Elemental Wolves?"
"Hmmm, that's an interesting question. You see, Elemental Wolves have been around since the beginning of Time. We have actually helped in creating the Universe. Elemental Wolves have the ability to control one or more of the many elements that exist in the Universe. There are thousands of elements, but the common ones are Fire, Water, Air, Earth, Shadow, Life, Death, and Light. The common elements are actually the most powerful. Because there are a lot of each of the common elements, the Elemental Wolves that posses them have more energy than the ones that have the uncommon elements. For example, Cinderfur has the elements of Fire and Death. I have Life and Air. Ashpup we suspect has a rare form of Fire and possibly something else. You however, we don't know what elements you posses yet."
"So, I'm an Elemental Wolf? I can control the elements of the Universe?"
"Yes you can. Although, I think I'll save all the information for when you start your training. You'll be too confused to absorb all the information I'm giving you right now. Actually, are you confused?"
"Not really. I do have more questions, but I guess I'll save them."
"Good. It looks like your father has brought Ashpup back to the nursery," Leafheart turns her attention to her second and oldest pup. "Ashpup, how has you little adventures around the camp been today?"
Ashpup answers her mother's question, obviously very hyper to meet her younger sister, "They have been amazing! Grasstooth showed me how to improve on my stalking! Can I see Firepup know?"
Leafheart seems pleased with Ashpup's answer, "of course you can. Firepup, do you want to see your older sister?" Firepup turns to look at Leafheart, "Yeah, where is she?" Cinderfur and Leafheart look at each other. Firepup, even though she just opened her eyes, should be able to locate Ashpup. They had their suspicion that she might be an Elemental Wolf, but also an Omega. That is unheard of, but not impossible.
"Cinderfur, Leafheart! I have something to tell you. Firepup isn't like a normal Elemental Wolf. She's a lot weaker than normal," the pack's Star-speaker, Featherfall, announced. Cinderfur wasn't happy with the news and wanted clarification, "what do you mean she's not as strong as normal?"
"Well, to put it simply, she's an Omega. You know what your going to have to do." Sadly, Cinderfur and Leafheart knew what Featherfall meant. When it was time for Firepup to become a warrior, they would have to throw her out of the pack. As sad as it sounds, it was true. No matter what kind of werewolf the Omega was, they would have to be thrown out of their pack. There's no use keeping a werewolf that was too weak to fight or hunt for their pack. Cinderfur looked at Featherfall, "can't you speak with The Pack of Stars? Surely they'll say that this was a mistake and fix it?"
"I'm sorry Cinderfur, but The Pack of Stars can't change the fate of a werewolf. No matter how much we all what her to not be an Omega, there's nothing we can do. Even if you go have a talk with Fate, she can't do anything." Cinderfur knew Featherfall would never lie to his Alpha. Leafheart looked dissapointed, "Well, Ashpup, Firepup, how about you go play in the camp. We have to discuss something with Featherfall here."
"Ok Leafheart. Come on Firepup, I'll show you around camp," Ashpup exclaimed. She also said to her sister when they were out of earshot of their parents and the pack's Star-speaker, "I'll also ask our parents what's wrong with you later." Firepup smiled at that small comment. She was worried about what was wrong with her. More questions also popped up into her head after she heard that conversation between her parents and Featherfall. For the remaining of the day, Ashpup showed Firepup around and played with her.
