The newborns

[Juice]

Chira had gone to the very small den that was just a crevice in a large rock wall that she and Parchment had discovered before becoming mates. She was in the snug enclosure and lying out on her side panting heavily. She was weary and wished that there had been another female pack member. She gritted her teeth and howled loudly for Parchment, who hopefully could hear. She needed someone with her while she gave birth to the pups.

Parchment ran faster than he had ever before. He tore through trees, branches debris, without any care. His focus was on Chira. He arrived at the crevice, and squeezed in. It felt cozy. "It's time for the pups!" Parchment whispered.

Chira snapped at him "Obviously!" Pregnanacy were the motherload of mood swings. She sniffled slightly and panted. "ARGH!" she howled. The pups came out one by one and she slowly nudged them to the awaiting milk. She smiled and looked at them with emence joy. "Oh Parchment...they're beautiful." she said and cuddled Parchment.

Parchment stared at Chira when she snapped at him, but decided that it was just the kind of mood that pregnancy caused. He then blocked his ears and licked Chira as she gave out a scream of pain. And then he watched his little pups be born. Beautiful, he thought. One was gray, with a black stripe on its back. The second was black, with white dots randomly placed, especially on her legs. Another was gray, with white and black stripes somewhere along, and yet another was white with a black stripe, and dots all over. One of the last was a bluish-gray one, with black spots, and the last was a black one, with blue flames under his eyes and flames on his legs.
"I can't believe it ... six healthy puppies! What shall we name them?"

OOC -==- Which one is Megumi's future mate?

ooc: I think yours that one with the blue undereye markings? What's it's name xD sorry

ic: Chira panted heavily and snuggled into Parchment's neck fur. "I'm tired." she said. "But before I sleep, let's name them." she said happily.

OOC -==- Okies!

BIC -==-

Parchment looked at the puppies. "How about Midnight Blossom for the one that's black with lots of white dots? And Serendipity for the gray one with the white stripe from forehead to underbelly? And for the black one with blue flames under its eyes, how about Ebon Fire?"

Chira nuzzled Parchment. "Those are wonderful names" she said smiling. She then pointed to the girl with silvery gray fur and a skunk stripe. "She is Luna, and that one there, the blue colored one will be called Koori which means ice. And that one-" she pointed to the white pup with black eyes. "Will be called Zects which is the word 'Six' because he was the last pup in the litter." she said. She then decided it was time for sleep.

*~1 year passes~*

"Mom....Mom, wake up!" Koori was pushing on his sleeping mother's face, urging her to awaken.

Chira opened her eyes and looked at her son. "What?" she asked in a dreary tone

"You promised we'd get to go on a real live hunt today!" he said wagging his tail.

Chira sighed and licked Parchment to wake him up. "Parchie, we have to take the pups hunting today, remember?" she asked

"Yeah, remember Dad?" Luna asked, she had been lying next to him while she slept but was now wide awake.

[Parchment]

-=Parchment=-

Parchment tried to go back to sleep, but Koori's voice woke him. He flipped over and ignored the pup, but then the wet tongue of Chira licked him. "Stop it!" Parchie complained. But then, he felt Luna stir beside him and talk in his ear. Wearily, he got up. "You guys are a bunch of troublesome brats," he grumbled. "Maybe it was a mistake passing you down."
Parchment stood up, and shook himself.

Midnight Blossom woke up immediately when Koori called for Mum. She jumped up, and hit herself on the ceiling. "Wake up! Wake up wake up wake up!" She caroled. She jumped and landed on Chira. "Oops, sorry Mum!" She giggled. And then she wagged her tail. "Hunt! We're going on a real hunt!"

Serendipity slept through all of this. Well, until Ebon Fire grabbed her and swung her around. "Stop it!" she complained. And then she remembered the hunt business. She leaped up, and jumped onto Parchie. "I am the king of the hunt! Or queen, I should say. No, Mum's queen. I'm princess!"

Ebon Fire woke immediately. He grabbed Serendipity and swung her, calling with joy. He then also leaped onto Parchment. "And I'm prince of the hunt!" he declared.

Parchment groaned with all the weight on his back. "Get off, darlins. As soon as you stop bugging me and Mum, we'll take you out."

OOC -==- I'm a moddy! -dances pasta dance- Thankeh Juice!

Chira laughed cheerily. She loved her pups dearly but they certainly were a handful. "Alright alright! Everyone calm down! At least so we can get out of the den." she said laughin. She snatched up Serendipity but the scruff of her neck and trotted outside with her. "Gotcha!" she said laughing. "Alright everyone." she said once the pups and Parchment had filed out of the den. "We're going to the hunting grounds which is a bit of a long way, no complaining, and when we get there you must be quiet so we can search for prey." she said wagging her tail. "Now everyone get in a single file line." she said. "Your father and I will lead."

Koori pushed his way to the front. "Me first!" he yelled wagging his tail furiously. Luna bounded up next to him. "Then I'm second!" she declared. Zects, however stayed behind a little ways. "Um...I'll just...stay back here." he said, and took his spot at the end of the line.

ooc: I'll make a thread.

[Parchment]

Parchment felt the weight lift off him. He gave a sigh. It was beautiful with no noise ... but he really should get up. He shook dirt off, and followed Chira.

Serendipity's tongue lolled out as Chira took her. "Guys! This is reall fun! Mum, can you carry me all the way to the Hunting Grounds?"

Midnight Blossom gave a yelp and followed. She twisted and turned, couldn't getting enough of the fun of real hunting.

Ebon Fire followed Blossom. He wagged his tail. A hunt! A real hunt! You poohead prey! Ebon Fire thought. You dumb bunnies! Soon you'll be in my stomach. Muahahaha!

-Exit all of them-
