Crimson Paws ch.1: Kroyker
History: Huneo Crimson and his mate Guyia birthed three pups. One was Kilii, who later mated Onyx and birthed Kroyker. The next was Jorue, who remained single but always stuck close to family. The last Numoe, who ended up mated to a Dog named Sandy who birthed Yummi the half breed. Kilii and Onyx were the lowest ranks in a lone wolf pack, once their mating was found out by the pack leader, they were killed. Jorue and (at the time) single Numoe took Three day old Kroyker and ran from the pack before the leader could get his hands on him. Jorue and Numoe raised Kroyker, gathering a small group of wolves along the way. When Kroyker was three weeks old, Numoe came home with a female dog named Sandy, who he later mated and had a single male pup named Yummi. Eleven months passed by, Jorue and Numoe decided to name Kroyker their subordinate. Kroyker found love in a lone female named Jima, who was only a month younger than he was. They mated and Jima gave birth nine weeks later. Two girls, they named them Xennaxa and Xyrpha. Sadly Xyrpha was born dead, Xennaxa became their only pup.

Current: Kroyker and Jima trotted in the front of the pack, they were evacuating the land. Jima, mate of Kroyker, carried the new born pup in her mouth. Kroyker peered over from time to time to check on his mate and pup, always scared he would look over and they would not be there. Kroyker told the pack to wait in a nearby valley till he returned, and he walked off into the forest with Jima. He was taking her to a safe cavern for her and Xennaxa to stay while they fight the great battle that was brewing. Jima objected once he told her, she did not want him to not come back. She knew if she went with him, she could make sure he survived, but he eventually convinced her. They kept walking forward.

Brewing battle: A large bear king had moved into the area were the Crimson family lived and had taken over, killing most of the pack. As Krokyer lead Jima to the safe cavern, a lesser bear in the King bears army, looking to prove it’s self worth while to The King bear attacked and killed Jima. Jima tossed Xen into the bushes just before the bear’s large paw crushed her to the ground killing her on impact. Kroyker with all his anger and might destroyed the bear and cried holding his pup, curled next to his lost mate. It was The next morning when he finally returned to the pack, he told them what had happened, that he had hidden Xen with a friendly wolf lord. The pack began to mourn the loss of the loving female, but Kroyker stopped them. He told them,” There is a battle to fight, when the battle has been won, then you may cry.”, The pack understood this and Kroyker lead them into the King bear’s territory. Kroyker led the 29 wolves including; Yummi, Sandy, Numoe, Jorue, and the 25 wolves in the pack that had not been killed when the Bears took over the land; into battle. They battled the King bear’s subordinates, killing them one by one loosing five wolves in the mix plus Sandy, and Numoe. There was no time to mourn the lost and they pressed forward eventually reaching The King bear. In one desperate battle, they lost Jorue and another five wolves, before finally Kroyker, Yummi and the remaining 15 wolves defeated The King bear. There was no rejoicing, for they had lost so many along the way. They howled for their lost comrades and family, they howled for freedom.

Aftermath: Kroyker returned with his pack to their lands and he lived with his daughter Xen most of his years. Kroyker died from old age, he had successfully raised Xen into a fine young wolf, ready to lead another generation of Crimson wolves.

Crimson Paws ch.2: Mandrake
Untill now: Xennaxa, only daughter of Kroyker suffered her fathers death. He died a true wolf, he died with his family by his side. The Crimson pack is now leaderless, Xen decided not to take the place of her father which shocked the entire pack. Instead she chose to live with her mother’s birth pack, The Shadowreavers. Zolten Shadowreaver the father and leader of the Shadowreavers, accepted her as his own daughter knowing what it is like to loose family. Xennaxa lived with them and the Crimson paws pack later on joined the Shadowreavers too.

Now we are here: Xennaxa and her pack brother Brendan of Wolfsblood, played tag through the valley, past the blood lake and down the rivers edge. They stopped to take a drink and a short break from playing, they played in the water and sat there resting. Xen had hidden feelings for Bren, but it would never be allowed. They were, technically, brother and sister. Bren pounced her and she pounced her back they began wrestling more and laughing, having fun. She jumped kicking off a tree branch and kicked Bren in the butt, she laughed so hard she fell over into the water. What they failed to notice was the black puff hiding behind a bush to the left of the tree line. The fluff shook scared of the strange wolves nearby, Xen and Bren heard it rustling. Xen stood there and command it in a harsh tone to show its self, the puff obeyed and raised its peered its head around the bush and scampered out its tail between it’s legs. Xennaxa and Brendan quickly recognized it as a wolf pup. They try to find out were he belonged, Bren knew what the pup was. The pup was a Wolfsblood, part of the pack that the Shadowreavers had demolished only a few days ago. The pups parents were most likely dead, so Xen took the pup home and decided to raise it, not caring anything about were it was born. Brendan was a Wolfsblood, but during the attack on the Wolfsbloodpack, Brendan gave himself up to join the Shdaowreavers. Brendan would be loyal to the Shadowreavers the rest of his life.

For the time being: Xennaxa raised the pup, giving it a name, Mandrake. She trained Mandrake to be elite soldier wolf and he quickly caught on. Mandrake grew larger and larger everyday, he was a true Wolfsblood. Wolfsblood wolves tend to grow larger than other wolves and they are stronger, but they can be slow. So Xen trained him in strength, but tried to mainly work on his speed and agility, they grew happily together.
