Ruby + Sapphire

Red merle mixed breed pup walked up to the central packlands behind her new adoptive mom, Serena. Reddish-orange pools watched her intently. She half-feathery tail wagged joyfully.

Sapphire was Ruby's twin, exactly the same. Only difference was, she was blue merle and had blue eyes. She padded beside her sister, taking in the new 'home.'


Serena

She smiled back at the girls as she led them into their temporary home. She was staying with her friend, the alpha, Ransom and his pack until she found a mate and another pack. She waved her banner and howled for Ransom and the others. Her silent pools gazed around occaionally stopping on the pups. She stopped in a clearing and sat down under a oak. Motioning for the pups to come sit she kept a watch for the others.

Ransom:He came padding up to serena smiling. He was really happy that she decided to stay with them for a while and he had recruited someone for the pack. Bounding on over he looked at the pups curiously but shrugged. Smiling at all he wagged his brush and sat beside Serena. Welcome back, I see you've brought some little friends. Turnign to the girls he smiled and lowered his head to their level. Welcome to you too. I'm Ransom and who might you guys be? Smiling he waited for an answer.


Ruby & Sapphire

Ruy sat by her mom. Who will be coming? She asked, loking up at Serena.

Sapphire sat opposite of Her sister. Kissers remained sealed.
She was usually the shy one, so She neded to warm up to the place first. First to notice Ransom, she nodded in his direction.

Ruby lookd at Ransom and smiled. I'm Ruby, and that's my siste Sapphire!! She said excitedly, she warmed up to everything fast.


Ty & Callie

The two kids spotted Ruby and Sapphire, and their eyes lit up. They may be different species, but both knew a youngster when they saw one, and the thought of playing interested them. A very big, thin grin crept over Ty's face and his eyes narrowed, casting dark shadows over his orbs and making him look more devilish than playful. And ran over to the pups, then jumped up and landed on all fours. His face contorted more now as he looked through glinting eyes at the pups, and his teeth were revealed further in a widening grin. But Ty, even when he was with his human family, had never spoken very much.

Calli on the other hand was a whole different story. "Puppies! WoooOOOOOOooo!" she cried out in an earpeircing tone and clapped her hands together emphatically. Her glistening blue eyes were squinted as well, but she held her head up and caught the sun, making her face brighten in the light and her eyes twinkle. She looked far less devilish and mischeivious than Ty. She came scampering over the ground and came to a stop in front of Ruby. Instantly, her two hands shot out and touch the pup's head as she giggled. The two forgot about their growing hunger, for the moment.


Ruby & Sapphire

Ruby was startled as the two-legged approached her. She jumped when touched, she had NO Idea what Calli was. But Ah, well. She wagged her tail and yipped. Her tongue lolled out of her mouth.

As Ruby was loved over, she noticed Ty. he wagged her tail and greeting and trotted over.
She never spoke at all either, so she just grinned a bit. She sat and put her paw up.


Ty & Callie

Callie giggled gleefully and clapped her hands together once more. Then she stuck her tongue out of her mouth, trying to imitate Ruby. "I'm a puppy! See! A puppy like you! RUFFF RUFFF!" Her voice was ridiculously loud, but the tones of playfulness and excitement could easily be heard. The toddler grabbed up a stick and wagged it in front of Ruby, trying to entice her into a game of tug-o-war.

Ty sat back as well, but had his knees pulled up and his arms stretched out in front of him, trying to sit the way Sapphire was. Then he lifted a grubby hand to touch it with the pup's paw. His head tilted far to the side and his eyes took on a more interested look.


Serena

She smiled at the two pups and nodded at Ransom. Ransom here came and some of the other pack members will come maybe. She lifted her head at the sight of the human pups and smiled. She remmbered the boy struggling when she had caught him at first. She wagged her brush as the four pups played and interacted.

Ransom:He smiled at Sapphire and wagged his brush a bit. Nice to meet you. He whispered something to Serena then gt up to leave. Nice meeting you two, have a good time exploring and whatever else you want to do. He nodded at serena then trotted off.


Ruby and Sapphire

Yeah, she understood. Not. Ooh, look! A STICK!!!!! Mine.
She grabbed hold of the other end of the wooden stick and began to pull, growling playfully.

Sapphire gave her puppy smile at Ty and stood. She went up to him and licked his cheek once, but then recoiled and pulled into a play stance.


Ty & Callie

Callie's giggle grew into a shrieking laugh as Ruby began to tug back. The youngster began to shake the stick back and forth, gripping it tightly with two hands. Her bright, blue eyes were opened wide, staring merrily into Ruby's. She didn't understand that dominance langauge of wolves!

Ty gave a short laugh, ducking his head down at the lick. Then he lowered his head to the ground and stuck his hindend in the air, mimicking the playbow. Once again, the mischievious, almost devilish look came across his face. Ty jumped forward then, attempting to tackle Sapphire.


Ruby & Sapphire

Ruby tugged harder at the stick, growling a playfully but a bit harsh. She let go and puled into a dominant position. She pawed gently on her nose to make sure she probably got the picture. Then she picked up the stick and wagged it around, waitingfor her to grab it again.

Sapphire smiled at his accept and was caught of guard at his tackle. She was sure to get up quickly and attempt her own tackle. Her tail wagged the whole time.


Ty & Callie

Callie was startled by the pawing and more intense growls. But she indeed understood her error. Now she looked to the stick and laughed out loud. Reaching forward, she tried to grab a hold of it once more with both hands and yank it away from Ruby.

Ty giggled a bit when he was tackled in return. He even offered his own version of a 'play growl', though it didn't sound quite so wolfish. He tried to shove Sapphire away from him so he could get up. But he grinning face and the tone of his 'growls' showed he was just having fun.


Ruby and Sapphire

Ruby went back to tugging harder, tail wagging. She gave a fierce jerk, going to try for the stick.

Sapphire wagged her tail and jumped off, allowing him up. He wasnt great in growling, but ah well. She pranced around, watching him with delighted eyes.


Callie & Ty

Callie giggled shrilly, getting yanked to the side as she held the stick. Tripping over her own feet, she tottered to the ground. Her face wrinkled up for a moment, then she reached forward and tugged at her shoe laces, trying to take her shoe off. Oh, how quickly her attention could be lost!

Ty began to prance around too, on all fours. But then he spotted a movement... a little moth had fluttered into a patch of grass. His eyes lit up and he pounced, smashing the little insect with an outstretched had. His face crinkled up a bit in disgust, but then took on a look of great interest and curiousity. He gingerly plucked up the lifeless creature and held it out in front of Sapphire, offering it to her.


Ruby & Sapphire

Rubt watched her with great interest. What was she doing? She saw the lace... Oh! Wow! She pounced on it, grabbing the hoelace with her teeth and pulling it.

Sapphire the little moth was fluttering around. She looked at the offered insect, she snuffed at it and examined it. She picked it up gentl with her teeth and placed it on hte ground, watching it.


Callie & Ty

"No, no, silly!" She giggled delightedly when Ruby went to pulling at her shoelace. But there was no command or negativity in her voice; she was just sputtering out words for the fun of it. Suddenly the toddler sparked an idea. She tugged the shoe off, letting Ruby take it if she wished. Then she tugged at the other shoe until it too came off. Grinning ear to ear with mischeif, Callie tried to grab a hold of one of the pup's paws and place the shoe on it.

Ty watched the moth, glancing back and forth from it to Sapphire. He had thought she would eat it, but he was surprised by her gentlness. It inspired him, and he reached forward to pluck up the insect. He brought it so close to his face that his eyes crossed in an attempt to see it. Then he lowered the insect to his mouth and blew, sending it fluttering into the breeze with a faint shower of its dusty scales. Now his dark, but suddenly compationate eyes turned to Sapphire, seeking her approval for his new actions.
