Needing to know the truth

[WolfMoon]

Scyla paced back and forth beside the stream. Why? Why was she different from Xai her build looked nothing like him. Everytime she looked into the water for answers she was shocked by what she keeps seeing. Instead of seeing what her brother is she sees only pure wolf. "It cannot be?" growling at the image she struck her paw against its smooth surface. Tears began to roll down her face and dropped to the earth.

Kalla sniffed the wind and couldn't smell the pup she was looking for. Scyla had sensed something was different and Kalla's wisdom may help. If only Kalla could find her.

Trika(needs to be named Celena) whimpered "Scya jikdfew(gone)?" to Zekur.

[EmberGlow]

Rauko, who was resting in the cavern, quickly nodded at his son. Xai seemed worried that no one was able to find Scyla, and had been annoying his father for hours. Finally, he had permission to get her. But quick.


It didn't took long for little Xai to find his sister. The husky pup nearly ran right into her.
"You're so still, I didn't even saw you! I nearly stepped on you," he complained. Then, noticing in what mood she was, he sat down beside Scyla and tilted his head. "What's wrong, Puffy?"

[WolfMoon]

"I don't think I am your sister Xai. I mean look at me, I look just like a wolf." Scyla sniffed while she whimpered. "I just don't know what to do anymore. I am far different than you Xai I could out run most of the dogs here and what I look like explains why I have been treated differently around home." Tears still streaming down her muzzle and beaded together on the ground.

Kalla loped back to the cave and shook her head at Rauko. "I couldn't find her anywhere. Maybe Xai found her." she barked before she laid down with her muzzle pointed toward the cave entrence.

[EmberGlow]

"Leave them alone for a little. I trust my son and daughter to come back wherever they're ready to," Rauko barked, before resting his head on his front paws again. He closed his eyes and went still. If it wasn't for how tense he was, he would of looked like he was asleep. It was obvious that he was worried.. And he hadn't seen his mate in forever. Where was Sienna when they needed her most?


Xai looked intensely at Scyla. He grew up believing she was his sister, and he believed that. "You look like me. Only prettier.."
Her fur was pure white, but wasn't Sienna's fur white, too? He did notice that Scyla didn't had a curly tail like his, had a longer muzzle, bigger eyes, pointier ears and longer fangs. And, of course, she was a lot leaner and agile than him. But wasn't everyone different one way or the other?

[WolfMoon]

Kalla nodded and closed her eyes.

Trika stumbled to Rauko, "Doh notha wogkyt(worry)" she barked licking his nose.

Scyla shook her head. "Xai, I just don't understand why they haven't told me. I guess though it was to protect me from hurting myself." Scyla thought out loud placing her paw in the stream and moving it around in small circles creating a small cyclone in the water.

[EmberGlow]

Xai shook his head, frowning hard. "But you're not a wolf! You're a husky, like me."
He wanted Scyla to be his sister. She was so much fun to tease!

"Xav, calm down," came a musical voice. It sounded just like the stream when it flows over pebbles. Soft, light, medium soprano. "Bella, dearest."
On the other side of the stream stood a beautiful white husky. She had light brown eyes ringed with a beautiful blue. She looked like a spirit, flawless and a little surreal. She was very skinny and slender, and she had the usual thick husky pelt.

"Mom!"
Xai stood up, his tail wagging, and tongue flopping out. "Where were you?" he complained. He was about to tell her everything...

[WolfMoon]

"Mom!" Scyla lept over the stream and nuzzled into her fur. "Why am I different from ya'll?" she whimpered snuggaling into her chest.

[EmberGlow]

She gathered both pups and started grooming them.
"My little darling Bella..." she chimed. "Me and Sixx wanted to wait until you were older before telling you. Because then you would understand more."
Sienna smiled at Xai's frown. He clearly didn't understand anything. She turned her blue-brown eyes back on little Scyla.
"You mom was a beautiful young wolf, you know. She was young, a little naive. She was afraid, too. She didn't though herself capable of taking care of you," she murmured soothingly, as if telling a bed-time story. "Your father was great, you know. Feared. An Alpha in a far away wolf pack. He was not there when your mom gave birth to you and a couple more pups. Sadly, those other pups were stillborn. You're the only survivor. Your mom, well, anbandonned you. She left you in a pretty nest made of silver feathers, by the stream you grew up close to with us. Me and Sixx, we found you. Two days after, I gave birth to Xav. I loved you so much, that I took you in as a pup of my own. And so you grew up believing me and Sixx were your parents, and Xav your brother. We still are your family, no matter what."

"So... Scyla's a wolf?" Xai asked.

"Scyla? No, Bella's a wolf. I don't know who this Scyla is.."

Oh, right. Xai and Scyla didn't told Sienna about their new names and the pack and all that...

[WolfMoon]

(Scyla run away now but she be back after she sees her real mum)
Scyla glanced at Xai and looked back at Sienna and began to back away. She didn't mind being a wolf but knowing that the parents that took her in lied to her, made her begin to cry. Whimpering Scyla turned around and bolted for the thicket where she was good at hiding.

[EmberGlow]

"Scyla, wait!" called Xai, getting up. He started running after her, but Sienna kept him. Plus, he knew he never had any chance to catch up to his sister.

"Leave her be. She'll get over it eventually," whispered the white husky. Her eyes were clouded with grief. Couldn't of Bella understood that to them, they were their real daughter? Sienna always saw the wolf pup as her own.
"Now, do you mind telling me where on Earth have you two, and your father, been?"

Xai sighed, gave up on finding Scyla, and told his mother everything.

((End of post?))

[WolfMoon]

(Nah not yet)
Scyla heard Xai and wanted to go to them but she had to think first. A far off wild wolf howl rose and fell over the silent forest. Pricking her ears Scyla hinted something warming in the tune so she lifted her muzzle to the sky and opened her mouth and began to sing her heart out. A note so beautiful that every animal that heard it was hipnotized by the soothingness they felt. Her song lasted for a long time she cried the whole time she howled her grief and misfortune of her real family. Rising then falling to a slow stop Scyla's howl seemed to echo throughout the land.

[_)Misty-ith(_]

A head poked out of the brush infront of Sycla. His features were handsome and friendly, his tounge lolled as he panted. His warm brown eyes showed care toward the little wolf cub. "What's up, pup?" Raem asked, seating himself next to Sycla. "You got problems?"

[WolfMoon]

Scyla didn't seem surprised at the huskies appearence, she sensed him come. "Yeah I got problems, the family I was raised by lied to me and my real family left me." she whispered not looking at Raem. Sniffing every now and then Scyla avioded Raem's gaze.

[_)Misty-ith(_]

"Hm..That is a problem." Raem plopped onto his side next to Sycla. "But the past is the past. All that matters is here and now."

[WolfMoon]

"Easier said than done Raem. You have had Kalla basically all your life as a friend and I have no idea who my real family is. Sure I have Xai, Rauko and Sienna but the fact that my real parents left me just haunts me." Scyla barked softly, shifting her weight from one paw to another.

[_)Misty-ith(_]

"You sayin' you wanna go find 'em?" Raem asked calmly, watching a beetle creep before his nose.

[WolfMoon]

"Not really I mean if they didn't want me then why would they want me now. Besides I can't leave Xai what would he think?" she grumbled loud enough for Raem to hear. "How did you meet Kalla Raem?"

[_)Misty-ith(_]

Raem looked down at the little pup. "The Pack will always love you, Scyla. Just remember that." He yawned once before continueing. "It's sort of a long story."

[WolfMoon]

"Well I ain't in no hurry. Come on Uncle Raem tell me." Scyla pleaded, with big puppydog eyes.
