Come Back
FLASH BACK
He was running beside a stream, a young energetic pup at the age of 4 years. He lived in a beautiful crystal cave surrounded by beautiful meadows, dense forests, and rising mountains. Always trying to copy his father he tried to fish. While trying to catch a fish like his dad he slipped and hit his shoulder on a rock. With a loud yip of both startelment and pain he fell into the water. Limping back out whining from the pain, His father came over and lay next to him, licking his shoulder and his face. He told him "You'll be fine just be more careful when lunging next time." Then he nuzzled him. Later that day with his fathers help he caught his first fish. 4 Years later. At the age of 8 he was brought into the hunting circle. His father took him on every hunt having him watch as they hunted. After seeing them hunt for a year or so he was allowed to hunt with them. He screwed up a few times, scaring the game off. The other males instead of being angry just chuckled and encouraged him to keep trying. He finally got it right, and work with the pack brought down a big moose. His mother approached him "I'm very proud of you Avilik. One day you will lead the pack, and I'm certain you will do so very successfully"
END FLASH BACK
He whimpered, his father wouldn't be proud of him now. He failed his pack, his family. Thinking of that made him remember his first mate.
FLASH BACK
Now 16 he was fully included in pack hunts and daily life. It was spring, mating season for wolves. Vivian was a beautiful young female at the age of 17, her fur was dark brown and her golden eyes allured many males. She had picked Avilik as her mate and no others had a chance of winner her over. Late one night After Avilik had courted her, they went running in the moonlight. That night he had mated for the first time. They were soul mates they both knew it. He felt it in his heart and soul; they were inseparable from that night on. Eight weeks later He and Vivian went to the whelping den away from the others, where she bore a healthy litter of four pups. Avilik was a very proud father. A few days later his mother and father made the journey there to see them. Both Storm Alarm, his father, and Snowdrift, his mother, were very proud of them. His father told him "A father don't love his children part of the time, he loves them all of the time. The pack will love them as well because he loves them." Avilik nodded and licked his fathers jaw, wagging his tail. Snowdrift told Vivian a few things as well, and then they both left for the main den. Avilik hunted for his mate and took turns watching the pups. They named the boy Kapu and the three girls Aaka, Sweet Fur Amy, and SageEars. The pups grew fast; with in 3 months they could run around and eat solid food. They had been weaned at eight weeks but had to eat regurgitated food for another 2 weeks before they could eat solid food. Unfortunately, Aaka and SageEars ran into a mountain lion and were killed. They had wandered off and despite Avilik trying to defend them he failed, severely injured. He and Vivian howled morning there deaths; the pack knew the pups well and mourned with them. Everything went well for the next few months however he and Vivian were attacked by the Lower Colville River pack. They put up a desperate battle, being cut off from their pups. They heard Sweet Fur Amy's cries of both fear and pain, but could not reach her. They were both seriously injured and managed to barely escape alive, never knowing what happened to their pups. Again they mourned, Vivian grew weak and refused to eat, and her heart broken she died three days later from her wounds and grief. Avilik mourned her passing not eating him self, but finally returned to the Nuka River Pack. His pack and parents helped him through his despair, and supported him tell him he did everything he could have done.
END FLASH BACK
Remembering that he grew even more depressed. He recalled his second wife Sarah and what happened to her now.
FLASH BACK
Avilik was now 46, while out hunting for deer he encountered a human woman, about 26 years old or so. She had long black hair, tan complexion, and brown eyes. He had never seen a human before and wasn't sure what to do, he slowly approached her out of curiosity. She smiled at him and continued to pick flowers and put them in her basket. He knelt beside her and picked up a flower. Then handed it to her, she took it from him, smelling its sweet scent before putting it in her basket. Remembering that humans speak English he found the words in his mind. "Hi" he said. "Hi" she replied. "My name is Avilik. Why are you picking flowers?" "Well Avilik I'm picking them for my mother to use for a herbal remedy. By the way I'm Sarah" With just that small conversation they both became good friends. He learned to be gentle and about human society. Also teaching her about his own society, and bout his race. They fell in love after a short time, later marrying. They were very happy together, and soon consummated their marriage. Sarah became pregnant and he assured her he would protect her and their child with his life. They bought a small house and a piece of land out in the country. He did all the farming, were as she did the cooking. He was eventually taught to cook and eat his meat cooked. She taught him how to cook so well that they built a bed and breakfast. It became a quick success; everyone who stayed there loved Avilik's cooking. A neighboring town found out what he was and was angered at their loss of business because of him. One night a riot came to their house, they dragged them both out side. Weakening him with silver and tying him down. They beat and cut him over and over. He desperately tried to free him self, so he could protect his wife. The mob tied her up beating her, and then they took a stake of silver and pounded it into her heart. Doing this in front of him, he cried out her name struggling to free him self. She looked at him, mouthing, "I love you. It's not your fault" His eyes glowed red as he broke his bonds and slaughtered those people. He held her body in his arms as she slowly died. She whispered to him "I'll always be with you, even if you cannot see me..... This was not your fault, my love..... You did your best to keep your promise, that was all that could be expected of you." He nodded crying, he gave her a final and passionate kiss. "I love you!" her hand reached up and rested on his cheek "I love you too!" then her hand fell away as her body went limp, she had died. Lost in anger and despair he howled a long angry and mournful howl. Then his eyes glowed red again as he went to that town and began slaughtering the people who had grown jealous and murdered his wife and unborn child. His father showed up and managed to calm him down, taking him home to his pack. For many days he refused to eat or drink, his mother came in and told him something one day. "Avilik my son doing this will not bring her back. She wanted you to live. Please do not waste the live she saved for mourning and despair. She is in a better place now and you will see her again when you time comes to leave earth but now is not your time." He looked up at her tears in his eyes. "Your right mom" He got up licking her jaw and nuzzling her. She nuzzled him back. "Now go out and have some fun my son" He wagged his tail and ran out side to play with the other wolves. Trying to live life to the fullest not wasting any of it on mourning any longer.
END FLASH BACK
A few tears fell from his eyes. He got up and went out hunting for dinner. He had spent most of the day reminiscing and was not hungry again. He soon caught a young doe and at that quickly so he could go back to hiding. He didn't wan this brother to catch up with him. When he got back the sun was almost down. He now remembered one of his worst memories. The day his parents fates were sealed.
FLASH BACK
The Nuka and the Upper Colville River pack clashed at their boarder in a fierce fight. The Upper Colville pack was once again trying to take over Nuka lands again. They were always trying to do that. Stormwind faced off with Snowchaser, whiles Snowdrift faced off with Alder Whisper. He and his younger brother, Tank, faced the other packs young princes. He took on Komik, while Tank took Nutik. The opposing pack was beaten after a bloody battle but at an unexpected lose. Stormwind, his father and the packs alpha male, was badly injured as was his alpha female Snowdrift, his mother. Both died only days later, but before they died he was given the Belenos swords, family crest, and the power to summon the Silver Moon Katana. Avilik reluctantly at the age of 150, lead the Nuka pack there after, with the pride of his father. The pack had a minor scuffle to determain ranking. Moon Seeker and Nipto being his betas, and Rawbones being the omega.
END FLASH BACK
He knew he had failed them all. Now tired he decided to go to sleep with a heavy heart. Tomorrow he would figure out what to do and where to go.
