ORIGIN - Howls to the Missing Moon

Pages: 1 2

The air was humid, the area was eerily quiet, and it was time. While the golems ceased their thundering about, disturbing the growth of a hatchling-to-be, it was time. It was painfully difficult. Nothing about wolfish nails is made to escape a shell that would make some claustrophobic. It had to roll a few feet and smack a sharp rock before it would even crack. With many more agonizingly long minutes passing by, a piece fell free and a small, shining snout poking out.

An ear piercing whine begged for freedom from the maw-sized hole now formed in the side of the brightly colored chrysalis. Paws dug at it more, barely breaking anything away as desperation began to climax. More loud whining from the opening followed by loud scraping. Freedom was so close, but so impossibly far away. So the little thing inside flailed within, trying to stir up the egg enough to cause more cracking. Small lines formed, but were still too hard to break. The pup within placed his nose back out and gave a long, high-pitched howl that had a pathetic whine to it.

A cry startled the lounging beast. Amber eyes opened wide as he sat up from his perch he had been snoozing on. Wings spread instantly on instinct as his first thoughts went to the idea that maybe it was one of his children in danger. He sat rigid on the edge of the spire's ledge, ears erect and listening in an attempt to see if he had truly heard the noise or if he had only been dreaming it. A sigh rushed out of him as he slumped back against the spire, one knee bent as his pawed foot rested against the ledge. Just before he could deem it only a dream a sudden howl pierced the silence once again and Damian once again sat up straight. Eyes narrowed as he listened to the whining sound and he knew then that it was not one of his sons or his daughter. His chest rumbled deeply as he conflicted with himself. He could very well just go right back to sleep, or he could go see what was causing that noise and why.

It was a struggle, but in the end his conscious got the better of him and the lycanthrope snorted at himself. He shifted, allowing himself to slip free from the edge and go hurling down towards the ground. His wings quickly extended and caught the air, jerking him to an almost complete stop in his descent before he was shooting off in the direction of the howl.

It wasn't long before he found his destination. Hard amber eyes stared at the gem as his paws landed heavily against the ground. All he saw from the chrysalis was a obsidian muzzle sticking out of a crack. He paused for a moment, curious to know just what exactly it was. It was obviously a canine of some sort, but he wondered for just a moment...- His thoughts were shaken away and he quickly crouched down by the gem and suddenly gripped the pups muzzle with his pawed hand. "Hold still," he grunted at the thing before he called for his magic to obey him. He should easily be able to bust that chrysalis open for the child.

Hope was there, but the panic was, too. Continuous whimpering plagued his vocals, pleading with any merciful being to help him begin his new life. To his delight, a paw-like appendage cupped his elongated face and told him to remain still. With all the patience an unborn pup could muster, he did what we was told, shivering in anticipation as the shell broke away from him, the air immediately clenching to his damp fur.

Bright.

He squeezed his eyes shut immediately, then tried to pry them open, struggling with this new sense he had never used before. As he put effort into it, feeling a deep need to see his savior, his pupils dilated and shrank, trying to find that happy medium. In what seemed like ages, he finally manged to focus on a wolfish face. With a few more blinks, the image became clear. His ears fell back and his tail began to wag furiously, butt wiggling from all the energy his tail produced.

A pink tongue slipped from his lips and licked at the hand, thankful eyes beaming upward. He scooted a little closer and tried to lick Damian's chin, beyond happy to not only be freed, but be freed by a fellow canine beast. His whimpers were now mere sounds of his overflowing joy, butt inches from the ground as he tried to reach with remaining in a submissive position.

His magic had heeded him. Energy coursed through him and ultimately struck out, shattering the chrysalis easily around the abyssal pup. The emerald shards fell away, revealing the rest of the wolf pup to him and amber eyes took in his entire apperance. Slowly Damian eased back to sit upon his haunches, crossing his legs in front of him. The pups butt wiggled with it's tail and Damian lifted a brow in amusement. He was certainly happy to be free wasn't he. Damian's chest rumbled as he patted his pawed hand against the puppiees head. "What's your name, pup," His voice rolled out like smooth, black velvet.

There was something about this puppy. Something lost to his mind. A sense a familiarity, perhaps, but there was truly no way he could, or would, remember such a creature. For now Damian ignored the strange feelings and pushed it aside. Perhaps he would bring this pup into his group. Sure he had his three children to look after, but they all seemed to be doing find and branching out. This one, however, seemed to might possibly need a bit more attention then his own offspring would.

OoC: SHITTY I AM SORRY SHITTY POST

Tail somehow managed to wag harder as his head was gently patted, tongue trying to angle up to lick Damian's hand as he pulled away. His ears perked up, looking too big for his head, pink tongue lolling out the side of his mouth. As Damian spoke, his tongue slipped back in and mouth closed, head tilting dramatically. In his head, he repeated the word.

"N...nnnnn... aaaaaaammmmme," he said out loud, trying to sound it out, hoping for the meaning to click into place. His head tilted the other way. He blinked, then his tail went back to wagging, having stopped, apparently. The words started to expanding in his young brain, their meanings finding their place.

"Menzier!" he yipped. He stood up completely, butt still about to vibrate off of his body.

For a moment he listened to the abyssal pup try to speak. First in mimicing the word Damian had previously spoken, and then soon his name. 'Menzier...' The name struck a cord in him. Drew his attention to it immediately. Ears pushed forwards as amber eyes locked instantly to the dark pelted pup. There was just something that tugged and pulled at him. Shadowed thoughts whirling around in his mind, yet just keeping out of reach every time he tried to grasp onto them. "I am Damian," His voice spoke, deep, dark velvet purring from his muzzle. He had first felt like he didn't even need to tell this creature his name, but another part felt it would be needed.

A frown marred his features as he leaned forward, trying to get a better look at the pup as if he seemed to be missing something. He just couldn't get a hold of his own thoughts in even the slightest to try and figure out this odd sensation that seemed to suddenly plague him upon this pups arrival.

For a moment longer he lost himself to his thoughts. Desperately trying to grasp hold of any idea as to why this sudden sensation was flooding through him. It wasn't noticed at first, the small thrumming of his gem against his hip, but when suddely a burst of light suddenly came from the gem Damian found himself sitting back instantly. His fur stood on end as he shot his gaze down, watching as the light began to spark out some more and finally, small tendrils of red and green light began to sway up from his gem. "The fuck," He grumbled as he watched the tendrils float towards the pup and when he took note of small green tendrils coming from Menzier's gem on his forehead he narrowed his eyes.

"The hell are you doing?!" He barked almost annoyed as he unsteadily watched the tindrils of light finally meet. His breath sucked in as a flash of light overtook his vision and all new sensations suddenly swamped him. Joy, happiness, everything that didn't belong to him suddenly filtered into himself and he found himself sitting there in confusion. 'What...' His mind's voice gasped out, unaware that the puppy before him would now hear every thought he may have should he allow it.

OoC: Freaked out dami is amusing XD

The wolf pup watched the older canine, the knowledge of his name provided. Damian. He solidified it into his memory and smiled again, tongue flopping back out of his mouth, except on the opposite side, this time. The frown did take him a little of guard, mouth closing a little, but tongue still present outside of his teeth. Confusion increased as the skunk-colored elder wolf's hair fuzzed out.

Menzier's gaze followed Damian's down to the gem on his hip, eyes widening a little as odd shapes came from it. Then... something caught his eye in front of him and he stepped backward to see it, but wasn't able to really until it stretched out more. Emerald colored shapes protruded from his forehead and it was... well, it was weird. He failed to even notice Damian cursing at him, too busy being absolutely fascinated.

Then, they linked, light flared and it all dissolved away. He blinked his green eyes, peering up at Damian as his voice rang inside his own little mind. His tail wagged slowly, butt plopping back onto the ground. Whatever just happened seemed to have confused both of them in equal amounts.

Something happened. Something happened? He looks unhappy.

The pup laid down and scooted close to Damian again, licking at his shin, hoping it might make him happy again. His tail began to pound against the ground, little pink tongue grooming away at the thick black fur. He stopped, licked his chops, then scooted close enough to rest his chin on Damian's leg, peering up at him with big, friendly eyes.

Damian was ultimately silent as he watched the pup wiggle closer to him only to groom along his leg. It wasn't long before the pup moved closer and looked up at him. Almost instantly the lycanthrope cracked and a heavy sigh escaped him. 'Fiiine fine,' He grunted in thought as he moved down to pick the pup up. Idly Damian rose to his feet and looked to the pup he now held in front of him. "I suppose you're probably hungry..." He mumbled as he narrowed his eyes at the pup.

Though, Damian couldn't deny that a nap sounded much better than food did at the moment. AFter all this noisy pup had been the reason he had so rudely been awoken from his slumber. Unfortunately his conscious surprisingly got the better of him and with another heavy sigh he sat the puppy back down onto it's paws. "Come on then. I'll show you how to hunt. You'll have to get the hang of it cause I certainly am not going to feed you every time you get hungry," He huffed as he turned and prowled off in a direction he assumed food would be in. Of course he said he wouldn't provide for the puppy, but as it were his parental instincts were currently on overdrive with the fact of his three kids that had only recently emerged. There was no way he would deny feeding a hungry pup.

OoC: Shitty post i'm sorry

The pup's head turned back and forth as Damian's thoughts rang in his head, leaving him confused. The elder's mouth never moved, but he swore he heard him speak! The entire concern was melted away as he was lifted up by strong arms, eyes widening a bit. Ahh, but the mention of food quickly had that tail flailing about all over again.

As he was returned to his feet, he locked eyes on his new favorite person, ready to learn new things. He followed along, front paws dramatically stretching in front of him as he pranced along. Soon enough, the happened upon a small flock of lesser gembound birds, mindlessly picking at the ground for remnants of food. Oh! Oooh, chase, chase, chase! the pup thought excitedly, immediately proving his youthful lack of self-control by bounding off toward the birds.

Birds and feathers went flying about, the pup snapping his teeth at tail feathers that were well beyond his reach long before he reached the middle of what was once their location. He ran in circles, bouncing and thumping his front paws on the ground. With a yip, he thumped his front end down, chest touching the ground while his butt stayed in the air with his tail propelling like an insane helicopter.

Play, play, play! I just wanted to play!? Menzier stood up and sat back on his haunches, looking upward. He no longer saw any birds, which was truly disappointing. He merely wanted to play with them. Unfortunately, his play would involve teeth, which left the birds being all the wiser despite their lesser status.
