I opened my eyes to a strange wooden creature. I think it is my mom it had a wooden structure of a wolf. Then I look down at my paws it too was wooden. Since I was just born everything was bright and then I started whining this was the beginning of courageous wolf. When I was done whining my mother had named me Chip. I took a nap since I was so tired after my nap I realized I was in the woods it had leaves so thick I couldn't see past them. Then I noticed other wolves of wood a lot of them they started to talk about me.
"Do you think he will be a even better hunter than you ? " One of the wolves said.
"Naw I doubt that. " Another wolf said
"Aww he's so cute. " A wolf said
Then she touched my ear with a paw my ear twitched and I stammered back caught off guard.
"His reflexes are fine" One wolf said.
"When then Chip I welcome you to your new home where you are destined for greatness." One of the biggest wolf said
My name is oak tree and I am the alpha of this pack." Said oak tree.
Those were the words that echoed through my mind and inspired me. I got really hungry and my stomach growled after that I was sort of embarrassed.
"Aww he's so cute when he's hungry you must be starving." The girl wolf said.
" my name is maple leaf but you can call me maple." Maple said.
Out of nowhere two timberwolves came out with the carcasses of two cacatrices. I looked at there dark limp bodies in wonder they were dropped to the grass. They body lying plump on the ground no movement. All of a sudden a urge to eat it my instincts kicking in. Then I pounce and start tear the cacatrice apart bones brake with the help of my wooden teeth. Then I start eating the animal from the stomach. Blood dripping its food as I can see pouring out as i tear its flesh from the stomach. Then I start feasting on the leg chewing the meat right off.
"Wow look at him go." Said Maple
"Yeah i know he's so vicious" Said a random wolf.
Well this was my first meal and I loved it I couldn't wait to see my prey squirm in a attempt to get out of my grasp.
This is my first day in the wild so far so good. I hope to be a hunter in the future.
Chapter 2 Hunting has finally come
I am finally the age to start my hunting this is my first hunt so it should be cool. I hope I do this right i've always wanted to go hunting. Then maybe i'll be a strong warrior fit for combat and be a hero. I was so excited before we were about to go hunting Maple had said.
"Are you ready for your first hunting trip?" Maple asked.
"As ready as i'll ever be!" I exclaimed.
"Alrighty then let's go." replied Maple
We were off in the forest I was so excited but I had to stay quiet so I didn't scare off any prey. I was hoping for a Cragadile or a diamond dog maybe a pony I never had one.
My thoughts were cut off by a rustle in the bush Maple and I crept toward it. When I was almost there I accidently snapped a twig then I heard a roar from the bush and the creature from the bushes came out it was a manticore. I had never seen one but I heard of it from stories this thing had a lion body and a scorpion tail that could impale me without a second thought and dragon wings.
I was frozen in place then my instincts kicked in and before I knew it Maple and I were running for our lives we weaved past trees in hope to lose it but to no avail. I took a quick glance behind me and it swung its claw at me it missed just my mere inches it missed.
As we were running I was starting to get tired and the Manticore wasn't even winded. So I had to devise a plan I would distract the Manticore then Maple would be in safety. I would turn left and then I would have to find a tree I could jump on and climb up.
So I decided to put this plan into motion so instantly I dash to the left the Manticore easily turning and got closer than I thought. So I was running through the woods for a while then I spotted a tree low enough. So I leaped for a branch and I grabbed it. In doing so the Manticore had latched onto my leg and its weight made its claws scrape down my leg. I cried in pain as twigs and yellow sap felt down.
When I made it completely up the tree the Manticore was trying to knock down the tree but barely made it budge. I was safe after a few more minutes of this the Manticore left but not to look at me with a death glare its red eyes boring into my soul I would never forget this sight.
Afterwards I tended to my wounds all I could do was lick the wounds and clean up the sap well this was my first hunt. So I climbed down the tree and tried to find shelter it was turning night. I was walking through the woods until I reached the end of the forest I saw a little cottage then I fell unconscious from exhaustion The last words I heard were a faint voice.
"Hello are you okay"
And then nothing but black.
