Cortinarri, Isias, & Starscream

Leaving Kimama and the others under the trusted hands of the humans, Cortinarri secreted away to the Barn. It had been along time - almost three years - since she had last been here. Although it was certainly not her preferred place to give birth, she had little choice. And so, behind a stack of haybales, the alpha of the Aspen Grove brought four new lives into the world.

As she cleaned the four whelps, Cortinarri noted that one little female looked like her late daughter, Isia. "Isias..." She murmured, in a bittersweet homage to her fallen offspring. And then there was the little male, whos milky blue eyes would later turn as amber as his mother's. His tiny little voice was shrill and loud as he cried out, trying to figure out where his mother was. Nudging the wayward pup towards her warm belly, Cortinarri quickly came up with a name for him, "Starscream."

Valian & Sylar

Once Starscream began to cry out, it prompted a slightly deeper, but just as loud cry to start up in the first born son. The odd one out, or so it would seem. His black coat with his white chest was unlike either parent, and made him stick out from his siblings in his own little way. Without guidance from his mother, the young pup managed to find his way to Cortinarri's belly un-aided and began to suckel with no further complaints; save for the odd whimper.

Lastly, the largest of Cortinarri and Vestige's litter added her cries to the chorus. The pure white pup flopped around in limbo, unable to see or find her mother. As Cortinarri began to nudge Starscream to her belly, the female pup could feel the heat of her mother, and began to slowly make her way forward. After a large effort, the pup finally reached her mother, falling silent as she began to feed. The closed eyes would one day open to reveal their amber color, completing her image; the exact replica of her father.
