((I can't think of any fitting titles XD))
Flame sat there, on the edge of the cliff of the tall mountain. The breeze made his black pelt sway back and forth back and forth. His head was held up high, though he felt no pride. His eyes, usually a dark green, were fogged with water. He couldn't sleep. He felt he didn't have a meaning in life and sighed. He knew there were things in his life that were dear and good to him. But he wanted memories to cherish through out his life. Memories of puppyhood, but they just wouldn't come too him. The moon started to rise in a sea of stars. Flame twitched slightly, his fur bristling but not in a fighting style. He then cocked his head up fully and pointed his muzzle and let out a long howl. He stopped and started to whimper slightly and layed down, wrapping his tail around his paw.
((OOC: Blah brainded'd xD))

ooc:I'll reply, and, don't worry about the title, it's okay.
ic:Ivory fur was tinted silver in the moonlight, saphire-amber blended optics twinkling as they rested on the Dragga. A new Alpha Male, a new mate, a new beginning, so many possibilities.
Citali sat next to him, a small smile playing on her maw. She didn't really feel like smiling, however. It had only been one season since her son Ketlam had died, so, how could she? Loka was growing up, Tempestas, Gaiden, and Kaeric were wolves she never spoke to, hardly saw, anymore.
"Flame..What are you thinking about?"
Her tail flicked from side to side, as if the Drappa couldn't decide on which side she wanted her tail. She didn't look towards him, she had yet to gain an affection for him, no, her eyes were locked on the moon and the stars.
Are you out there, Tor? Why did you take him from me? Why?
There had been a large storm cloud lurking over at the left side of the moon that seemed to be hiding the craters in the moon's surface that resembled almond shapes. Eyes.
So..You can't see me, can you?

Flame looked up from his spot and sat up. He nuzzled her softly. He whispered softly, "What's been going on in my mind has gone on my whole life.. it's nothing really.. I'm used to it."
He turned his attention to the patch of stars his mate was gazing at. He layed down and put his head on his paws, sleep clawing at him. Though he had just been titled Alpha Male and the female's mate, he loved her so. He knew how painful the situation must be to her. But he wanted to take care of her. To love her. He had never thought that such a wolf would be his mate. Or that'd he'd be apart of a pack.. a lead wolf at that. He smiled lazily and yawned slightly and wrapped his tail around his paw, the tip of it slightly touching the female's back paw, so he knew she was still there.
He gazed upon the stars once more, attempting to remember his past once more. But why should he be looking off of the past when there was a future infront of him. He shook his head to clear his head and whispered to his mate, "Do you remember.. your puppyhood?"

A light smile flitted to her maw when she touched him. It was funny...He wanted to love her, just like Tempestas had, and already she was feeling waves of the strong feelings of bonding between them. She was going soft, was that it? No...That couldn't be it. No. It was that she truly did love this one.
"Not very well...Atleast...Nothing good about it. Our, Glade and I, our mother was...abusive to us. My father was always gone on hunting trips and fighting with the other packs. At one time, he never came home."
She sighed, secretly feeling better, now that she was beginning to be able to tell someone about her life before the pack. She felt like she had no responsibilities anymore, like the only two wolves in the world were her and Flame.
"After that, our mother died. We don't know of what, but we were sent off on our own...Glade was never very good at hunting, so I had to do it for us both...It was tough, but we made it through. Eventually we found another pack willing to take us in. That's when I became a Beta, and Glade took on a leading position amongst the Warriors...Then everything went wrong again."

Flame started to feel hurt inside when she told the story. He thought that remembering a past would be good... but perhaps it wasn't. He got up and licked her on the cheek. His voice was quiet and he said softly, "I.. I'm sorry to hear that... I always thought remembering a past would be good.. but I guess it isn't." He started feeling bad.. hear he was before, pittying himself for not remembering his puppyhood, but his mate did remember hers and had a horrible time. He still looked up to the stars and felt himself getting closer to the female, slightly brushing up against her. But he still kept a bit of distance.
He wanted to be sure that her future wouldn't be like her past.

"But it all turned out okay. I have three cubs and a thriving pack, right?"
Citali tried to smile, but couldn't help feeling bad. Atleast she remembered her cubhood.
"Flame, why is it that you don't remember? Do you not want to, or is it something else?"
She didn't know why she was asking these questions, or why she was telling him her past and feeling perfectly at home telling the story. She just felt like it needed to be said.

Flame sighed sadly and replied, "I wish to remember my past... I truly do.. but the only thing I remember from cubhood was something that took my memory away.. My old back and I were at this one stream and I was still a small cub and I fell into it and drowned. I woke up on the side of a shore like place and didn't know where I was or remember anything else."
He then smiled and looked at his mate. "But I shouldn't be trying to focus on the past right? After all.. there's a future in the making."

The fur on the back of her neck, around her ears, and on the tip of her tail rose slowly with the heat. The skin under her fur suddenly grew itchy, and her eyes widened with a small uttering from her mouth. If it were possible, she would have been blushing.
She didn't know why this was happening, it was just her reaction. Calming down, she breathed deeply, and looked to the stars again.
"I see..Well..I guess you're right. It's not important, we have to put those kinds of things behind us."

Flame smiled and chuckled slightly as he saw he made Citali embarrased slightly. He too looked back at the stars and yawned. He was beginning to get tired and he blinked a little, trying to wake up. His fur bristled slightly as the cold wind hit his pelt. He twitched a little but still stood there, looking at the stars.

Citali looked up at the stars, as well, a cold wind running its hands down her spine, but, at the same time, caressing her face like a gentle comfort.
"They're beautiful, aren't they?"

Flame smiled and nodded silenty. "Yes. Quite." He then looked over at his mate with wonder and awe in his eyes. "But they're aren't the most beatiful thing I have ever seen." He still continued to smile softly and turned his head but not to the stars but to the moon.

ooc:That's okay, I've tried, too, and it never works. It's good in my head, but it comes out wrong.
ic:Citali smirked at the attempt-gone-wrong. Her eyes widened, and, if she truly had them, her eyebrows would have been arched in that sly way when you knew someone was trying too hard and had actually messed up.
"Oh, really?"

Flame twitched slightly and looked away snorting slightly. He can't beleive he had made that attempt and... failed. He stopped snorting and blinked a few times. "My.. I sounded.. dumb.." he whispered to himself and sighed once more, still twitching, still not looking at the female he embarassed himself infront of.

Citali wanted to laugh, but it got caught in her chest, caged in, unable to fly out freely. She couldn't laugh anymore. Not since Ketlam died. She always envied everyone who could laugh, especially her daughter, who coul dlaugh at anything, and still be beautiful with it.
"Well, dumb or not, thank you."
She moved towards the cliff's edge. Looking down, she wondered what it would be like to throw herself off.

Flame looked up as the female moved towards the cliffs edge and looked down. He choked slightly and got up and moved towards her but did not go completely to the side of her. He was afraid of what she was planning to do and attempted to gulp down his fear but he still stood there ready to act if she did.. fall. Or jump.
