Dark Star

While waiting for his mate, Dark Star began to prepare. Well, I will have to make the den entrance smaller so the pups do not get out. He dug in a little away from the den and took the loose dirt and patted it down firmly at the den enterance, so the entrance was once again slim. I will also have to make up a place for Kana. She and the pups will have to stay in the den for many days. He ran off, and in about 10 minutes he came back with loads of dried grasses in his mouth. He placed them down, and continued doing this until he had an extremely large load. He took mouthfulls in at a time, and in the far back right corner, dug a slope, so that the ground in the corner was lower that the den floor. He then took the dirt he had dug up and made somewhat of a wall. Not only would this provide an incubating sort of heated nest for the pups and Kana, but it would also keep the pups from wandering off when they were little. After all this, he places the soft dry grasses into the 'nest' and admires his work. Not all wolvesses got to have their pups so luxuriously. Well, all to do now is the next steps. He dug up some of the thin den opening to the left, so Kana could get in with her larger stomache. He put it on the left so the wind would not hit any of the group in the back corner. He finnaly climbed out, and inhaled deeply. The air was no longer brisk and cold, but cool and breezy. He hoped the pups would be old enough before fall and winter really came around. He also prayed that the humans would not find the packland. He decided Kana would want to eat before she had the pups, she must have enough energy. He ran to the cache and brought back a huge slab of sweet tender meat. He put it in the den and sat outside waiting.

Kana, Aris, Roselin and Viggo

Kana arivved after her mate had finished, she smiled faintly, she felt bad. When she saw what he had done to the den her eyes brightened, he had done all of this for her and there pups! She nuzzled his cheak with her nose and ate what she could of the meat and went inside the den. After a while her labor had began to start and she was panting, whining a bit in pain. She pushed and soon she gave birth to there son; soon after she had another, a daughter. It was long into the night before she had there last pup, a small male. Smiling at her five little ones she barked for Dark Star to come meet his 3 sons and 2 daughters. She licked them, cleaning there fur and sighed, laying her head down on the bed her mate had made for them she closed her eyes, she was very tired..

Viggo, the smallest pup of the little crawled over to his mother's side and nosed around, not being able to see yet he had to rely on his nose to help him find her. He began to nurse, grunting in pleasure at the sweet milk. He was a grizzled color but had a lot of white mixed in with his fur.

Aris, an all black pup with grey paws and a white patch on her throat had already began to nurse, she had milk covering her little cheaks as she nursed hungrily.

Roselin looked a lot like Kana, withe the same grey coat as her mom. She also had a darker grey patch on her forhead that looked like a star. She had sniffed her way over to her mom and started to nurse. But soon after she was full she curled up under Kana's neck.

Dark Star, Azeros, and Lost Star

He licked her cheek as she went inside, and waited nervously for the results. When she barked for him to enter, he darted inside and his tail wagged happily, as he leaped with joy in his heart. He came up to his mate and whispered as she slept. "They are beautiful." He admired his wonderful new sons and daughters, in awe of how innocent they were.

Azeros, the first born, was nearly all black with a patch of grey and black and white facial markings. His yellow eyes, still unknown to the world, were blind, and he inched around until he found a spot to nurse. He was seemingly larger than the others.

One pup, the second born, worried Dark Star at first. The dark grey coated pup with a star like Dark Star's, as well as striking black facial markings, had crawled down away from the other pups, and laid down, lost. Scared for his health, he gently picked up the little pup in his jaw, and placed him down to nurse. Dark Star relaxed as the little one, who he decided would be named Lost Star, nursed hungrily, and then curled down beside Roselin.

Kana, Aris, Roselin and Viggo

Kana slept quitly and moved slightly when a bit of sunlight came into the den. Opening both eyes she raised her head and looked at her pups and mate. She sighed happily, everything was perfect. She looked over the pups, careful not to wake them up. They where all beautiful, she thought. Not wanting to leave she layed back down beside her mate, letting there young ones nurse. While they nurse she looked them over, the bigger female was beautiful and a name came to her, Aris, that was perfect. She looked at her little son, he was so cute, she decided to name him Viggo. Looking over to her second daughter curled up next to her father she sighed, she wasn't sure on what to call the beautiful pup, maybe Dark Star and herself could decide latter, and decide on what to name there other sons. Nodding to herself she layed her head down and dozed..

Roselin had cuddled up next to her daddy after she had finished eating. She slept comfortably, fealing safe.

Aris woke and crawled over to her mom to eat once more, she was slightly bigger than her sister, Roseling and would probably like to be the one incharge when she got older.

Viggo woke up as well and let out a small sqeek when he couldn't find hims mama, but Kana nudged him over to her and he soon began to nurse.

Dark Star, Azeros, and Lost Star

Dark Star licked Roselin's head tenderly, as he sighed, all of his edgyness had dissapeared. He wondered when they would tell the others, and what they would think.

Azeros snuggled himself at Kana's stomache, nursing as he halfway slept.

Lost star laid down right next to Roselin, up near dark star's head. Soft puppy breath blew on dark Star's cheek. He smiled down on them.

Kana, Aris, Roselin and Viggo

Kana awoke once more and smiled at her mate, "there beautiful, aren't they" she said happily. She licked his face before she nuzzle each of there pups lovingly.

Aris had woke as well, wining when she couldn't find her mother. But soon enough she found Kana and began to nurse again.

Viggo and snuggle up under his mother's from leg, there he slept peacefully.

Roselin was asleep as well, snuggled closely to her father.

Dark Star, Azeros, and Lost Star

He smiled as well and nodded in agreement to her statement. He nuzzled her and admired the five pups. "I should go and make sure everything is okay around the pack land. Please do not hesitate to call me if you need anything. The meat is still there if you need to feed. You should, it will give the pup's milk protien." With that, he gently picked up lost star and roselin and put them one by one at theif mother. He then licked Kana once more, stood up, and fluffed the nest a bit. He then climbed out.

Azeros now slept peacefully on his mother's front leg.

Lost Star nursed.

Kana, Aris, Roselin and Viggo

Kana smiled and nuzzled him and turned to her pups, sighing, she couldn't help but stare at them, they where so beautiful. Turning to watch her mate leave she rested her head down, she would eat latter, right now she wanted to stay with her pups.

Aris now was asleep next to Lost Star, as was Viggo, who was cuddled up next to Azeros. Roselin had started to nurse.

Azeros and Lost Star

Azeros nursed for a while beside Viggo and Roselin, but they yawned a small puppy yawn, his milk mustache made him stick out as he slept next to the others.

Lost star Snuggled closely to Lost Star, his nose snuggled under her neck. The den was extremely warm, the wind was blowing the opposite way, so no chilly winds blew at the pups.

Kana, Aris, Roselin and Viggo

Kana smiled at Azeros and leaned forward the wash the milk off of his face. When all of her pups where asleep she stood slowly, so she wouldn't wake them. Quitly she padded out of the den and started to eat the meat her mate had left for her. After she at she licked her maw and sighed, looking around she wondered when they would tell the rest of the pack about there pups. Turning she went back into the den and snuggled up to her pups.

Aris sqeaked when she felt her mom come back and crawled over to her and went to sleep.

Roselin slept next to her brothers.

Viggo moved slightly, but didn't wake.
