Ok, this ficcy is about my Ham ham Shelby, I've written a fic about her before (not on here, on a Hamtaro site called Yay for Adventure Hamsters) but I rushed writing it a little, and it was a little to…happy, and it didn't show Shelby's character the way I wanted it to, but don't worry this one will!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Shelby was laying down in some hay, she lived on a cattle ranch far out in the country. Shelby had jet black fur with a white stomach, and usually wore a bandanna around her neck. She also had the most beautiful cerulean blue eyes.
She had lived on this ranch all of her life, or at least as long as she could remember. Her father had left her when she was just a baby ham, and her mother had died when Shelby was not but a few months old. (about six) She had a brother, she could not remember him all that well though. He never said much to her, he always scowled when he looked at her, he was not like her at all he was almost evil she remembered thinking at times because of the way he usually sent chills down her spine, whenever she tried to think of him all she saw was white, and a flash of cold yellow eyes, this is all she could remember of her brother. Being alone most of her life, she had tried to learn to fend for herself, but because of her young age she couldn't very well. She didn't like humans at first, but the man who lived on this ranch found her one day, he saw how weak with hunger she was, he took her in and nursed her back to health.
Shelby left about a month later, she wanted to be on her own, but she came back and was fed by him off and on. She never left the ranch. Later she met a wild female hamster, that taught martial arts. Her name was Myosa, and she had liked Shelby, so she let her stay and she trained her. In time Shelby grew very strong, she had become an exceptional fighter, little did she know it ran in her family. Shelby liked cattle, she thought that they were fun to ride on, and even to run with, (a safe distance away from that is) which showed her unknown inherited running skills.
Shelby had always felt that there was something else out there waiting for her though, and she had always felt the urge to run out there and find it. Today the urge was stronger than ever. Shelby couldn't take it anymore, she knew she was ready to go out there and search for her destiny.
She waited silently on the side of the country road, and finally, it came, a big truck that was always carrying cattle from the ranch to someplace out in the city. When it stopped she made her move, she scurried up to the top of the truck, and almost as soon as she did, the truck started moving again. A few hours later the truck stopped in (whatever Laura and Hamtaro's town is called.) Shelby jumped off, she went into the woods where the clubhouse was. She passed by a tree with a flyer on it, she looked at the flyer, it read: The 5th annual strongest hamster tournament is being held tomorrow at 11:00 am sharp, if you think you can overcome the strongest hamsters around, then enter and you could win our special grand prize! (it's a secret prize) Shelby smiled to herself, this was a great opportunity to show the hamsters around here how tough she was. She couldn't wait till tomorrow…
