"Outside the window just to watch you as you sleep..."
Hel was born to a pack full of love and faith. The family was tightly interwoven together in a quilt of devotion, there were not a huge number in the group she came from, but they were close and strong together. The girl is only a mere three months so she did not learn much in the time she had with them.
One night her mother, father and four siblings slept soundly in their den. The seven wrapped tightly around each other as the storm raged and howled outside, her mother and father grew concerned as the night went on and the den began to fill with water. Her mother turned to her father with eyes flooded with fear, knowing they would soon have to leave their home and find higher grounds.
The male climbed forth from their home and A heavy crash awoke her and her siblings, as if rehearsed the quad scrambled in fear and pressed against their mother, wet and shaking from fear. A long time passed and their father had not returned, nor had anybody come to check on the alpha damiy , and the fearful mother knew what must be done.
The dame woofed in a way Hel had never heard before and it startled herself and her siblings into obedient silence. The babes lept to their toes and followed the mother out of their home.
The rocks high above the water were slick with rain as it poured from the heavens. She could barely hear anything, couldn't see anything in the darkness, the flashes of lightning were their only hope. Below the broken family the ocean smashed against high stone, reaching for the mother and her young as if their lives would calm her tempest.
The mother turned her head to count her lives, and one second they were all there, all five tails, all ten ears, and she turns to lead them forward. They took one step, then another, but her young legs weren't used to the slippery rocks and her toenails couldn't grip. She yelled a sound that would have broken even the coldest of hearts as only one word escaped her small obsidian lips.
Help...
And then she was gone. Watching her mother and siblings fall away from her, their howls of despair fading fast as the roar of the waves grew louder. The babe closed her eyes and held her breath as she waited for death to take her.
