,Wishing on a Shooting Star, :MB:

"Quest! No!" Screamed Ember, still terrorized at the dream. He soon came through and looked at Terra. "Sorry, bad dream." He said. Ember nuzzled his 4 pups. "Oh, I forgot to introduce you to my pups. This is Slade." Said Ember picking up a half black, half white pup. "This is Cloudpelt." Said Ember showing the spotted pup. "This is Shadow." Said Ember pointing to the black pup. "And this is Icedancer." Said Ember nuzzling the light grey she pup.

OOC: I might of messed up on the colors of the pups. I can't remember their colors!

Ember begins dreaming about Quest. "Quest!" Shouted Ember in his dream. "Yes, it's me." Said dream Quest. Ember reached out to touch her when things went black! He could only see blood splashing around him! "QUEST!" Screamed Ember. He jumped out of his dream and was panting heavily.

Ember turned his head away. He laid down and rested his head on his shoulder. He felt sad and lonely, even if he still had the pups. What Ember needed was someone to be his mate, but how could anyone ever be like Quest? Ember wondered.

Ember sighed and began his story. "Well, in the beginning, my parents were killed. Me and my siblings moved out. We didn't get very far when we came face to face with a dark brown wolf. His for was matted, his teeth yellow. he raised the fur on his back, then he attacked. I manged to escape, but none of my family did. Soon I found out that this wolf's name was Duststorm, I was always on the watch for him. As I wandered, I soon picked up a scent, it was wolf! Soon I found a frightened and threatening she wolf by the name of Quest. Quest was a lovely wolf, and soon we were partners, then mates, and soon we had 4 puppies. In all this madness, Duststorm returned, this time he was rabid! I manged to chase him off and we covered up the foam on the ground. Also, while we were hunting, Quest got hit! I thought she died, I was lucky that time. Her life was spared. Later, I went hunting. I saw a bull elk, I went to take it down. I was so stupid, I was attacking a strong adult bull elk all by myself! Soon I was left bloodied on the ground. Quest found me and took me here. A healer by the name of Fran healed me and I waited in a cave for her return. She was getting permission for us to join the pack. That night, something felt wrong, I felt it in my heart. I rised from my cave to find Quest, and Duststorm dead. It took me a few seconds to notice that Quest had killed Duststorm to save the pack. And me. I lay helplessly sobbing over my life long love. She was not quite dead yet. She gave me a look, telling me that it was ok. That was when she left me forever. Then, I howled for Fran who found out that I might have caught the rabies. These may be some of my last days." Ember hated the last words he had said, but it was true.

Ember looked confused at the pup named Aleu. He looked up at Terra with concern then back down at the pup. Terra made Ember feel a little better, she also made him feel a little sad. Any she wolf reminded Ember of Quest, sweet Quest. "Terra, have you heard of Quest? Some of the other pack members might have told you." He avoided her gaze.

"It`s ok if you leave Fran. I will be fine with this... mother." Each sound the word mother made tingled Ember`s tongue. He missed Quest more then he could miss anything else, he tried to control himself from crying. Luckily, only one tear came down his face. Turning to the mother, he said "what is your name? Mine is Ember."

"I think I`l rest in the dens. I need a brake form this madness." Said Ember, with a tired look. He would need that rest. As they walked to the dens, Ember looked at the landscape. It was a beautiful place and a kind place too!

OOC: My mind is blank today so I don't think I'll right much.

BIC: Ember let what Fran said sink in. He had never know much about rabid wolves and this, it was a lot of information! Would he live to stay with his pups or die a painful death? But he could not just simply kill himself in case he lives but still, Ember did not want to die that long, painful death. Possibly Balthier could help him, or if it got out of hand. Put him out of his misery, that was the last thing he wanted to happen.

Ember turned to Fran and began to talk. "Oh it's nothing. Something just seems different, about the water. Something Iv'e never felt before. It's probably nothing, I should just keep walking. Should I?" He was still confused about what Fran said about the water and being afraid of it. He turned his head away from Fran and sighed. "You know, why did Quest do that? We had just got together at this pack, probably the best place we could go to! I felt so happy, but now that's gone. Why!" He stomped his foot so hard that it dug in the dirt. He lowered his head and a tear ripped down his face. He tried to hide it from Fran but soon it hit the ground and made a tiny puddle. Ember looked in the tear and saw his brothers and sisters! He smiled at the memory when Duststorm walked in, he tore Ember's family to shreds! Ember closed his eyes and looked away from the tear but soon opened them again. He looked in the tear and saw Quest and the pups! Quest smiled at Ember but Duststorm walked in and the tear turned black. Soon, Ember was bursting in tears! No matter how hard he tried to hide them, he could not.

Ember was a little confused at what Fran had said, but he did it anyways. He began walking towards the waters, suddenly he felt something! Something about the water. He stopped, and looked back at Fran.

OOC: Still not exactly sure what you are talking about but I think I'll find it out!

Pravus's ears shot towards the responce, and he forced his exhausted legs to take him towards it. He tilts his head at the situation, and dances uneasily from the faint smell of death and rabies on the male. He turns his head to the female. "My name is Pravus. Damean from Jabber wishes to know how the wolfs from Midnight, Navi,... Echo,... and Cinder are." He pauses between each name, making sure he has the names right.

Pravus panted as he gallops towards the edge of the territory. The travel through the lone lands having made him exhausted and thirsty. He dances ancxiouusly at the scent of Rabies and Death. A croak like howl echoes from his throat. He licks his lips and tries again, this time making a clearer sound.

Ember quickly snapped out of it and became a little embarrassed with what he said. But he couldn't help it. "Sorry Fran, I can't help being like that with a rabid wolf around! Especially Duststorm." Said Ember pointing to Duststorm. "First he had killed my brothers and sisters and now he has killed Quest. Every time I see him I get all freaked out and worried. I'm sorry if I sounded stupid. Lets go to the lake." Said Ember now going towards the lake. He could feel a stinging feeling and for a moment he felt dizzy. He stopped in his tracks to see if resting would help, but it didn't. Ember closed his eyes and when he opened them he didn't feel as dizzy. Still, he was worried. He tried to tell him self that it was nothing and he should move on but he stayed still with fright. He knew that if the virus had slipped into his body that would not be good. Duststorm had already killed some victims in the Lone Lands and wandered through the packs a little. Ember did not want to become another victim.
