I'm not sure who this is for. But I was inspired to write it.

In Character
Everyone had a breaking point. Urukara was weak and sick and couldn’t take it anymore. It had been easy compared to what she had to deal with now. The children were growing so fast. They were talking and their eye color had changed from the baby blue to their adult hues. Rave with his dark amber eyes just like his mother’s used to be before she gained her wings, Uruitz was a reflection of Blitz right down to the green orbs that stared out and captured her heart. The oldest boy was so lively and rough on his younger brother, who preferred to sit and inquisitively watch the world go by rather than play-fight. They both appeared to adore their mother even if they weren’t as close to her as most pups were to their parents. They were constantly being urged to go play with Blitz or by themselves so she could have peace and quiet alone.

Yet as bad as she wanted it, Kara hated being alone. It was an opportunity for the creature to show up and begin filling her head with lies. She knew he wasn’t real, just a figment of her tortured mind and the result of many failed experiments while in the laboratory. Even as she knew that, she couldn’t escape him because he was real to her. She felt the pain he caused and heard him hiss every time she was forced to glance at Renee. The child that resembled Luxia even more now that her true eye color was visible. Sometimes she was sure it really was her sister looking at her with that sorrowful expression. The effects of her abandonment were becoming more evident as Renee got older. She never played or laughed like her brothers but she never received any sign of affection aside from what Jvie gave her. Now that they were starting to eat meat, Urukara hoped her daughter would stop showing up but instead it only got worse. She now had freewill and chose to come visit her mother on a regular basis.

That was when she reached her own breaking point. After looking at the pale silver ghost one too many times, she began to inwardly scream. On the outside she warmly, insanely, approached the small puppy sitting outside the den in Misted Dreams. Rave and Uruitz were gone as was Blitz. Probably an early hunting lesson. She observed how the Alpha pushed his children to excel. She gazed at the puppy all by herself, watching the grasses wave in the breeze. "What’re you doing, Renee?" Urukara asked softly, walking up and putting a paw around her daughter. "I 'unno.", was the squeaky reply as she looked up at the wolfess. Kara pretended to be in deep thought for a moment. "How would you like to come on a trip with me?" The puppy leapt up, tail wagging furiously, thrilled that her mommy had offered to spend time with her. "Yes! Yes, Mommy, yes!" Kara could have cringed at that awful voice, Luxia’s voice, but she didn’t, she remained cool and calm, standing up and gesturing with a paw for the pup to follow.

They trekked across the Alaskan wilderness, Renee taking every few moments to playfully bat at her mother’s tail or wings or to run off the trail and roll around in the flowers. Urukara could have torn her apart right then and there. The only satisfaction came in knowing it would soon be over. The torture would be over.

Running, laughing, the puppy chased a butterfly until spotting something that looked very menacing ahead. Dangerous, sharp stones jutted out of the ground along with a broken path that had terribly steep drop offs. Something wasn’t right. The girl looked back at the dingy ebony Alphess that slowly closed the gap between them, madness shown in her eyes. "M-m-mommy?" Urukara didn’t answer, she looked from the now trembling puppy to the rocks and boulders before them. Anyone was a prime place to end the fragile girl’s life and her own anguish. A deep sinister growl escaped her throat and she leapt forward, grabbing the pup by the scruff of the neck, scraping a tooth against her gray face in the process which resulted in an earsplitting wail of pain and horror coming from the youth.

Hey baby? We need to talk....

lol.

In Character
Blitz felt sick to his stomach as he watched Uruitz stumble around trying to catch a mouse. He wasn't even close, how could this possible be Blitz's son? The shame Blitz felt was undeniable. Yet as he looked to his left he saw that Rave had already caught three. A normal father would have said something along the lines of "Good Job Son" However Blitz was not a normal father. Three was fine for a normal boy, but Rave and Uruitz where the sons of Blitz. Blitz was a strong and intimidating leader. They had to step it up or leave, it was that simple. As Uruitz plopped his but onto the ground giving up the fight, Blitz saw that Rave had also quit. But Rave seemed like he thought he had done a good enough job to please his father. How naive.

Blitz was never beyond telling them they weren't good enough. Though he was a little better about Rave, a son after his own heart. "Uruitz!" He yelled trying to keep his anger down, and not succeeding. "What are you doing? First of all STOP pouncing. Your a wolf not a cat! Sneak up on one and kill it, its not difficult look at your brother for heavens sake!" He let out a sigh of exasperation before motioning Uruitz to get back to it. The puppy got up and started again only out of pure fear that Blitz would eat him if he didn't succeed. Blitz turned to Rave, about to tell him to keep going when he saw that Rave had already gotten back to it. A giant grin appeared on Blitz's face, like he said, a son after his own heart.

After a while Uruitz did end up catching a mouse. His brother already had a whole stack of them. Blitz decided to call it a day for both the pups. While Rave had shown his power Uruitz had shown nothing but weakness. How was he ever going to lead? Luckily they had two boys because Rave was the one that would take Blitz's spot when he left. Though that wouldn't be for quite a while because Blitz was an immortal almost incapable of death. How sweet was that? He looked to his boys and called them over, and they started to walk back to their den in Misted Dreams... Tonight was a Black Storm night so Kara would take them and they would come back to Misted Dreams the next day.

As they where walking, Blitz sensed something odd. A vibe he got from the trees and the area that just scared him. He looked to Rave and Uruitz who for all he knew didn't even have the element of earth and probably couldn't sense what Blitz felt. "Boys go back to the den and stay there got it?" They paused when Rave spoke up "But...." Blitz whipped his head back to his sons for one last direction. "NOW RAVE!" He shouted and both the puppies went running for the comfort of their Misted Dreams home. As soon as they had left ear shot Blitz looked to the tree on his immediate left. He concentrated, needing to know what had happened, what was happening. After a minute, he heard a faint voice. "....Renee..." was all it said, but Blitz could sense something bad was happening. The forest moved with a grace and split open a path for Blitz, one where he could see Kara and Renee in the very distance. He ran as fast as he could there, although part of him was relieved she was with Kara. She couldn't get hurt with Kara there. As much as Kara hated Renee she was responsible, she would never let Blitz down by allowing their daughter to be injured.

"Kara! ... What's happening... I heard Renee was in danger..."

Agh! Urukara had no idea the puppy could scream that loud and being so close to her already damaged ears made it even worse. With a whine, she relaxed her jaws and Renee tumbled out, landing with a soft thump on the rocky ground. Both canines were stunned for a brief moment, each in their own way. The black wolfess shook her now pounding head and growled with irritation as the terrified child lay still in the dust, a moderate amount of blood seeping through the light silvery fur on the side of her face. Her little body shook with fear and the sudden surprise that had overtaken her, hoping it was over. Before long Kara had recovered and with the urging of the hollow eyed creature, began to stalk toward her daughter, angry this time. She was going to finish it this time, she didn’t care how much the rat squealed and begged, she could taste tangy blood on her lips and was prepared for more.

But her plans were interrupted when she heard a familiar voice. Blitz. If she had been in her right mind, she might have felt guilty for letting him come on to the scene, already having put him through so much. Urukara was small for a wolf naturally and the lack of food made her thinner, but she was hardy and always had been. Torture would do that to a person. If it didn’t kill them, it would make them stronger. She was crouched low to the ground, her body stretched out and back bristled. There’s no danger, none at all. Despite her obvious malice toward the puppy, her tone was perfectly normal, even sounding like she used to before the creature moved in to her head (which actually made her voice abnormal for the way she was now). There wasn’t any danger. For there to be danger, Renee had to be important and she was just an affliction for Kara. So with one solid motion, she threw herself at the child, jaws wide open and ready to snap down on a delicate little puppy neck.

Renee, hearing her dad’s voice, felt relief rush over her. She was safe now, safe. The puppy looked up, searching for Blitz just in time to see Urukara connect with her body.

Ok. I made this quick because my church is coming to pick me up like right now. Sorry it sucks....

In Character
Blitz almost couldn't stand what he was seeing. His daughter was on the floor - bleeding. What had happened was a mystery but the fact was Kara didn't seem to be in any rush to help the child. She looked at Blitz with eyes he'd seen in Luxia many times. Eyes of hope at the sight of Blitz, eyes that new beyond a shadow of a doubt that as long as he was there they where safe. Eye's that overestimated Blitz, and made him feel guilty. So incredibly guilty to the one person he could never save. To the one person he wished he could have helped. He cringed holding back any negative emotions - he didn't take Kara's word for it. Renee was bleeding, she was in danger of something. The thought never crossed his mind that Kara was the one doing this, and just as he was about to ask what was attacking both of them Kara pounced again.

She connected with the frightened puppy and had it in her mouth. Blitz didn't have time to think about it right now, the shock had not even began to settle. The first thing he did was run toward Kara throwing the side of his body into the side of hers attempting to knock her onto the floor and throw Renee from her mouth. How sick was the world when Blitz could not even trust his child in its own mothers hands. He raised his teeth to Kara and stayed on the alert. There was no doubt that Kara meant the world to him but now so did his daughter. Blitz would do whatever it took to make sure that she was safe for good. And if everyone walked out of this thing alive, he was not about to let Kara ever watch the pup alone again. He barely remembered Kara's problem, he was too upset.

It began to sink in gradually which made him more aware that Kara wasn't the one choosing this. That helped a little, but not much. His daughter was still at stake here...
