"Talking"
This chapter is quite short so I added a little History and Revised-History lesson on at the end. THANKS!
Unwanted Recognization
Part 1/Author Extra
Firestorm laid there, holding her Love Mate.
They had been born in human hands. Raised by their tribe as hunters and gatherers.
But the humans. The humans held their young. The ones too small to fight, or hunt, or stitch to keep the others from escaping.
There was one of the small ones left, one.
There was four of them. Seeker- her Lover and the 'tribes' spear man , Thistle- her twin brother and the 'tribes' Tracker, Heartsong-her brother's Lover and the 'tribes' healer. And there was her.
Firestorm -daughter of Red Wolf, she was their She-Wolf and Huntress.
The young one, His named is Blade. She and Heartsong take care of him when either of them is not busy, he wants them to escape.
Even if they can't take him.
One so young, barely six seasons, is willing to risk his life for their freedom.
She shuddered and pulled closer to her Lovemate. She breathed in the sent of him and allowed herself to relax into sleep.
Tomorrow. She and Thistle planned it. They would take off after a buck, and never come back.
That was what Blade wanted and it was his right to choose.
But He was one of the few cubs that had been born with the fire of Recognition in his veins. The fire was Healer-induced, but it was still there, and still valuable.
May-be there was a way around leaving him behind……..
May-be.
Seeker, Thistle, Heartsong and Firestorm are my characters. All others belong to the creative genius of Richard and Wendi Pini.
Author Extra: If your wondering, I do have images in my head of my characters.
Firestorm* looks like Rahnee She-Wolf, clothes and all, except her hair is black, her eyes are red, her clothes are the same. She has powers of flame and fire.
Seeker reflects Chot of the Go-Backs, he has dark hair and eyes, with face-fur. He wears a pair of black-blue pants with thick black medallion around his neck. Seeker is just that, a Seeker.
Thistle* He resembles Prey-Pacer, gray eyes, black hair, a loin clothe made of silver fur. He is a Tree-Shaper that has not come into power, yet.
Heartsong think Brownberry. She is a Healer.
I have pictures of all of these if you want them to jog your memory, email me. Princess_Raye_Fire@yahoo.com
--------Synopsis/Background--------
Warnings:
1. Possible Spoilers if you haven't read up on Elf history.
2. All in RED (and other wise indicated) is Part of the 'HISTORY' I made-up.
*Redwolf was the son of Kinna a (made-by-me) WolfRider and her wolfFriend Longtooth. -Kinna was a shape shifter, not quiet as powerful as Timmain.- Kinna took it upon herself to bring the Wolf Blood back into her tribe when the old Healer Willowgreen* deceived the WolfRiders and stole it from the to 'save' them.
Redwolf was a misbegotten Timmorn, and only lived long enough to sire 6 cubs (only 6 survived to adulthood), most by different women. His first mate Bloodsong had twins, Thistle and Firestorm.
*WillowGreen had been Two-Spear's Lovemate when she recognized Greywolf. When the tribe split Willowgreen and Greywolf stayed loyal to Two-Spear. Greywolf allowed his daughter (later known as Kahvi) to be raised by Two-Spear as the child of Two-spear.
Kahvi challenges Two-Spear and loses. She is left in a pool of water that has been tainted by High-One power*.
Later Kahvi is discovered by what is left of Two-Spear's band (after Willowgreen stole their Wolf Blood), magically healed and preserved by the water. She is awoken and the Go-Backs begin.
*This is where I twist the past. After drinking from this pond -before the defeat of Kahvi- The WolfRiders bring high concentrations of High-One into their blood, thus giving future generations high amounts of High-One magic.
When Two-Spear and his small band did fight Humans, they lost, badly. Those that didn't flea and become the GO-Backs, were captured and made into slaves.
Their children were taken and they were allowed to care for them as long as they Hunted, Gathered, made clothes for, made food for, and HEALED the Humans.
Six generations later, there are four elf-hunters and one elf-cub left in captivity……
