The Children (TY!!)

[Flamewolf]

The fae managed to get to the den entrance. A contraction rippled along her length, making her stop and gasp. But she gritted her teeth tight and, once the contraction stopped, quickly moved into the mossy caves. She paused again as another spasm occured. This was going to be harder than she thought.

Tigerlily lay in one of the largest caverns of the dens, off to the side of the rest. She claimed it earlier. After a few hours of being there, she had given birth to five beautfiul puppies. She licked them, tail wagging. Then she howled for her mate, Ty, to come.

[Flame]

A blur of white could be seen running through the wood easily dodging trees. The brute bolted to the entrance of a cave then stopped. Ty walked in and came to Tigerlily's side. His ice blue eyes shone with pride and happiness at the site of the pups. "Oh they're beautiful" he said nuzzling Tigerlily.

[Flamewolf]

She smiled and nuzzled her mate, the alpha of White Rain, back. "Yes, Ty, they are," she said, lowering her head to gaze at them. Then, she looked back up. "We should name them," she said, her head tilted slightly to the side.

[Flame]

Ty lay there for a moment thinking as he looked over the pups. "This one will be Tala" he said nudging the white wolf with the black circle around her eye and a gray streak coming from it. "This one will be Lakota" he said nudging the black pups with white ears and three dark red tiger stripes on back, dark red inner ear fur and a silver starburst marking on left shoulder. He lifted his head and smiled. "Tala means stalking wolf and Lakota means friend" he replied with a smile.

[Flamewolf]

Tigerlily smiled. "This one," she said, indicating the silver pup with bronze and gray hairs with white circles around her eyes, "Shall be Nienna. The one with red paws, tail, and ears, with white fur and red guard hairs, shall be Celebrimbor." She paused. "The last one will be...Findarato," she said. "Nienna means love, Celebrimbor means Flash, and Findarato means lightning." She nuzzled Ty as Nienna snuggled up to her.

[Flame]

Ty looked to her. "Those are wonderful names and the pups are beautiful just like their mother" he said and nuzzled her softly.

[Flamewolf]

Tigerlily smiled and her tail wagged, accidently brushing up against Findarato. She laughed as the pup squirmed towards her, and she gently pushed him up to her belly with her paw. She glanced up to her mate as Nienna snuggled in between her two front paws and Celebrimbor slept beside Findarato. "Don't forget; they also look like you," she said, smiling.

[Flame]

Ty smiled and nuzzled her. "i guess they do don't they" he said and just then Tala gave a small yip noise. Lakota moved closer to her mother seeking warmth from her belly fur.

[Flamewolf]

Tigerlily watched the pups for a little bit. "I wonder what the pack will do when they see them," she thought aloud. Then, she glanced up at Ty and smiled sheepishly. What a thing to say! Her tail started to wag slowly, than a little faster.

[Flame]

Ty smiled at her and his tail began to wag. "I think they'll be thrilled" he said with a laugh.

[Flamewolf]

Tigerlily smiled. "I think you're right; you usually are," she said softly. Nienna crawled from her mother to Ty, snuggling up to him. Tigerlily laughed. "Aw, she loves you," she said, watching her pup affectionately. She looked up at Ty lovingly. Findarato snuggled closer to her while Celebrimbor slept on.

[Flame]

Ty smiled and licked the pup affectionatly then looked at Tigerlily taking in how beautiful she was. Tala wriggled away a little away from the others and Lakota snuggle close to her mother.

[Flamewolf]

Tigerlily smiled, gently touched Lakota with her nose before looking back up to Ty. Celebrimbor awoke, slowly crawling over to her father's paw, sniffing it cautiously. Tigerlily laughed, and Celebrimbor tried to put her snout under his paw. It wasn't working very well; no matter how hard she tried, Celebrimbor couldn't get her maw under him. She pulled away and huffed. Tigerlily shook her head, still laughing.
