Scar

~Lore~
Before The Sparking Pack
Scar was born into a pack full of strong and independent wolves to a mother who loved him very much. In this pack, he was known as Lobo. He only had his mother as his father died before he was born. He is a pure black wolf with olive-colored eyes. He was always energetic and even as a puppy he was quite strong. "One day I'll be just like our Alpha, King, mom, the most feared wolf EVER." he said with enthusiasm while his mother just chuckled and said, "I'm sure you will." Lobo grew fast and grew to be quite strong and a lot bigger than most of the other wolves he knew. One day when he had just turned a year old he approached King and challenged him. King and everyone else tried to talk him out of it, they told him he was too young and was being naive. He didn't listen and insisted on fighting King so they fought.

After a long while of fighting Lobo was quite injured and was losing badly. He wasn't losing because of his strength or speed, it was his lack of experience in fighting. King approached him and said, "Because you are still so young and naive you may live, get up." Lobo stood up and faced King head-on. "I am not going to stay here any longer, I will go form my own pack, you'll be sorry you let me live." Lobo growled "You think I don't know about all the horrible stuff you've done, I used to look up to you..." King stood still not reacting to a single word he said. Lobo nipped at him before trotting off and saying goodbye to his mother. He nodded goodbye to all his previous friends as he trotted out of camp, ready to start a new life with a new pack of his own.

The New Beginning
As Lobo left his previous pack's territory he was lost in thought, he decided he would not be known as Lobo anymore, he wanted a fresh start so he decided on the name Scar. He was pulled out of his thoughts by the smell of a new wolf. The wolf he was smelling smelt sweet and he couldn't resist following the scent. As he followed the scent he found the wolf, it was a she-wolf as he expected. She was pure white with blue eyes. He approached her cautiously, making sure he didn't seem threatening. She jumped as she noticed him and started growling. "I don't mean any harm, I was just wondering what you are doing in enemy territory," Scar spoke softly. "Why? Are you one of them? Are you the enemy?" She said through her growls. "No...I just left my pack...it's a long story." She tilted her head, curious. "So you're in enemy territory as well then." Scar nodded. The female wolf calmed down and decided to introduce herself. "Well, the name's Raksha, you?" "I'm Scar." "It's nice to meet you Scar." "It's nice to meet you too...Raksha." The two wolves talked for a while and Scar told Raksha about the pack he was planning on starting. "May I be the first member of this pack you speak of? I recently left my pack as well." Scar was overjoyed she wanted to join but kept his cool "Yes, of course." Raksha grinned and they both trotted off, in search of a land to build their pack.

The Sparking Pack
Scar and Raksha had been searching for a place to call home for a while now and were getting tired of searching. One day Scar had decided to go scouting on his own and he found a new part of the forest that was often known as the Deciduous Forest. Scar scouted around the area for some time and decided it looked like the perfect spot to settle a pack. He returned to Raksha and told her what he found, she looked excited. "Finally Scar! We'll be able to have a land to call our own!" "And get more pack members." Scar added. "Yes, that too." Raksha agreed. Scar decided to show Raksha the new territory and she loved it just as much as he did. Raksha agreed this was the perfect spot to start a pack.

The Expansion
After Scar and Raksha had settled in the Deciduous Forest other wolves started hearing about this new wolf pack forming. Dispersal wolves from all over started coming to ask if they could join his pack. Soon enough he had two full hunting parties, two scouts, and a herbalist. His pack was growing fast, especially as pups started being born. Some pups ended up leaving at the age of one-year-old to be their own dispersals and maybe start their own pack. Pups were also adopted by other wolves from other packs as The Sparking Pack grew. Soon enough Raksha became Scar's Beta and they ran the pack together.

Is This Love?
As time went on Scar and Raksha became very close. Scar was beginning to wonder if he liked Raksha as more than a packmate, more than a Beta, and more than a friend. She ran the pack well with him and the two got along great but Scar wondered if he should tell her his feelings. After pondering for some time he decided to go up to Raksha and tell her his feelings. "Raksha...there's something I must tell you," Scar said, trotting up to Raksha. She nodded and followed him away. Scar explained how he felt to Raksha and she sat there listening. Scar got extremely nervous as he finished speaking because Raksha did not say anything or show any facial expressions. "I...I love you too Scar." Scar stared into her bright blue-colored eyes and licked her nose showing affection. Scar and Raksha were now not only Alpha and Beta but also mates.

The Move
The Sparking Pack was expanding rapidly and their territory was becoming too small for them. "We need to move, claim a new land" Scar announced one day. "Our pack is growing too fast and we don't have enough space or resources for all of the pups here." The wolves nodded along to what Scar said and they all agreed it was a good idea to move.

The next day The Sparking Pack headed out, they were heading to a place called the Riparian Woodland. The whole pack was excited to see the new territory that the scouts had scouted many times. The pups frolicked around as the adult wolves chatted, talking about new possibilities and adventures. "We are almost there" Scar howled back at his pack. The pack erupted into excited howls as they neared the new den site. They soon after arrived.

Settling In
As the pack arrived in their new territory everyone went silent. It was better than they imagined and well worth the journey. "I know you all are tired but before we rest we must establish our camp and territory" Scar howled over the group. All the wolves nodded and Scar started assigning roles. He sent the hunters to get food and the scouts to mark territory. The rest of the wolves stayed and set up the camp. They started with the nursery then the herbalist cave and so on until they were all done.

All the wolves had retreated to their caves for the night and slept comfortably. The whole pack was content as everyone rested and slept. Their new territory would bring more opportunities and possible danger too but they were ready for the new challenges.

The Adoption
Scar and Raksha had many pups but they couldn't help noticing how many pups Lillemor had been taking care of recently. Those pups had to stay at the enclave with no parents until they were adopted. "Scar," Raksha said, approaching him. Scar turned to her, "Yes?" "I think we should adopt a pup, maybe two, a few of the other couples around have, I feel we should too." Scar thought about it for a moment then responded, "I agree, why don't we head over now, I'll leave Whiskey and Champagne in charge." Raksha nodded and after Scar informed the two wolves they headed off.

After a long trek to the Enclave, Scar, and Raksha searched for Lillemor among all the pups. Before they could find her she greeted them, "Hello Scar, hello Raksha," she said joyfully. "What brings you here?" "We are looking to adopt a couple of puppies!" Raksha said, sounding excited. "Well then, why don't you take a look around," Lillemor said. Scar and Raksha nodded and began to walk among the pups. Immediately, two of them caught the eyes of the pair of wolves. One was a male, dark grey with a light grey underbelly and deep blue eyes. The other was a female, dark grey with black dapples and a light grey underbelly. The female also had a light grey neck and some light grey split her face so that she had some dark grey on both sides, along with brown eyes. She also had some colorful claws and splotches in her fur. Scar and Raksha looked at the pups and then at each other with a nod. "Lillemor," Scar said, "We have decided on these two right here," he gestured to the two pups. "Excellent choice! I'll get them ready for you to take home."

The Introduction
As the four of the wolves walked back into camp, they introduced the new members. "Everyone!" Scar called, "I would like you all to meet Thorn and Luna! Our new adopted pups!" He howled, waving his tail over Thorn and Luna as the whole pack howled a welcome. This could not have gone better, Scar thought as Raksha brushed up against him. The two sat down, watching all the pups meet the new ones for the first time. "This was a good decision," Raksha said, Scar nodded at the she-wolf, content.

The End
After many months, The Sparking Pack continued to grow and grow. Scar and Raksha were still at the head of the pack but they knew that wouldn't be forever and had talked about an heir many times. For now, they were still healthy, young wolves that were leading a fearsome pack. The pair would continue to lead the pack for the remainder of their lives and be content doing so. Though, even after Scar and Raksha passed, the pack would carry on their legacy for many generations to come.
