The Wind Takes Me!
SoA Name: Seolfor (he goes by Silver)
Prompt Number: #3
Desired Rank: General, or Sentry
Prompt Response: He narrowed his light blue eyes to focus. Focus. That was the key. He was often told by his father that he had to focus more, it was the strongest memories he had of a father figure in his life. Being told over and over again to focus... And now he could focus easily. No question about it, Silver's ears were the best around. When threats emerged, he knew who to dispatch to handle it. Because he knew from the way they walked, smelt and breathed who they were. He knew because he irregularly could sense everything about them. He always knew. He knew how the wind sounded as it past by a particular rock, and how the stream trickled along as it poured into the river. He knew how the earth smelt just as rain touched it and he knew how dangerous it was to get into the path of an angry lion.

It wasn't that Silver lacked the intelligence to go along with his skills. He was friendly enough, wise enough when questions were asked specifically. What he lacked was something different all together. He lacked purpose. He lacked motivation.

Today was one of those days and Silver was laying down upon a flat rock without a single care. He was trying hard to focus on the petals of a flower as it swayed with the wind and he watched intently. His ears would turn ever-so-slowly in a curve or flick when new noises were made but would always return back to being still. He rolled over, allowing himself to fall onto the grass as it spit up from between stones. "Bleh." He stuck his pinkish tongue out, flopping it over outside of his mouth. He curled over and was mimicking a death pose while remaining in that position for a while.

"What are you doing?" Came a voice, and Silver creaked open one of his eyes to see who had approached him. Ah, a comrade.

"Resting. And seeing how the dead sleep. Must not be very comfortable." He informed them of his pure intentions, and watching as they sighed at him from where he lay.

"You have work you know. Educating children and younger sentries on how to do their job." His colleague spoke to him in as-a-matter-of-fact voice. It made Silver make a pouting face and flatten his ears in dislike.

"Don't wanna." He pouted like a child. "No fun, out here no fun." His buddy raised an eyebrow. "Everywhere no fun!" Silver lifted his legs into the air and flopped over on the other side of his back, pretending to die again.

"Come'on Sil... We don't have all-"

The crack of a twig made Silver jerk upright, his ears intently moved forward as he listened and determined how near the new person was. "Someone near..." He whispered, standing and shaking himself free of dirt before skipping off into the woods. His friend was left to stand with a dropped jaw on how foolish he was being.

"S-Silver?!"

"Shh, be quiet. Hunting more important." He sneezed and turned back to face the woods, not quite entering but staring at the entrance while his tail wagged.

"Don't you mean searching?" His colleague rolled his eyes. There was no convincing Silver to do anything else when he caught the scent of a new person.

"Same, same." He meant to say "same thing, no difference." but everything came out rushed and quick with the grey dog.

Another noise made him bolt off, his friend left to stand with no reason or will to chase him. Silver might be gone for days, but when he returned it would be successful. It would be with a new recruit, someone who needs help or an intruder that he had chased away somehow. Regardless, there was no way anyone would catch that dog now!

Additional Notes: This contest needs more love ;w; and I'm sorry it's really long...

The Wind Takes Me!
SoA Name: Masozi ( "Tears" )
Prompt Number: #1
Desired Rank: Gatherer
Prompt Response: A single pup was born, yet the birth was a bigger tragedy than anyone in the pack could have imagined. It had happened in the midst of a territorial war when the pack healers had left the den to support the warriors on the battlefield. The Alpha's mate was not due for another month, but something had gone terribly wrong and she went into labor that night.

A frightening howl echoed throughout the land, a victory for the the rival pack as the last survivors ran back to their den with their tails tucked between their legs. Upon reaching their home, they let out a unified howl of their own. Only this time, it was of despair, for they had not only lost their territory, but also their queen. The alpha grieved the loss of his mate for many months and for this reason he had named his only pup, Masozi, for the tears he had shed.

The pup was always ignored by the alpha, her resemblance to his mate was too much for him to bear and he kept his distance or asked a pack member to remove her from his sight. Eventually he claimed another female as his mate and the pack rejoiced for their new queen. However, she was not very fond of Masozi. She felt threatened by her existance knowing that once she was an adult and found a mate, they would take role of Alphas. The new queen refused to deal with competition and attacked Masozi when her mate had gone off in search of better territory.

Even though she was battered and lost a lot of blood, Masozi was able to flee the den and escape the jealous female. Sadly, she did not get far and collapsed on the ground. Too weak to call out for help, she lay there whimpering from the pain and sadness. Soon darkness took her and she felt and heard nothing. She wondered if this was what dying was like, but as the pup began to enjoy the peace, Masozi felt wetness all over her body. This was not death.

She weakly opened an eye to look around and was greeted by several muzzles and tongues licking at her wounds. They did not smell like her pack. No, these were strangers, but they were trying to heal her. Masozi wanted to speak, to thank them, but the strength had completely left her. Two of them nudged at her side, carefully lifting as one other slipped under her and allowed her to rest on his back. The pup closed her eyes again and drifted into deep sleep as she was taken away by this new pack, hopefully one where she could finally feel accepted and loved.



Additional Notes:I hope I'm not too late. Also...this is my first time entering a roleplay contest. Hope I did okay. owo

He'd be a Sentry, the General position is limited, but he may be able to rise to the rank once there are more guards and sentries! Keep a lookout <3
