Description

Name: Zaliki
Clan: SkyClan (to be Leaf) 
Challenge: Bullet; Orange You strike up a friendship with another wolf. How does this happen? What comes of it?

After my long night sleep, I carefully stretched out. I yawned so widely I may have been able to eat a human whole. My body quickly shifted into my Lycan form. Almost like an instinct, not a thought about it. (Plus, I was naked in the woods! EW) 
The campers were out, probably fishing. So I seized the opportunity to leave. Upon turning around, there was a dark shadow in front of me. My eyes worked and finally adjusted.

"What are you doing here?"

A sharp voice cut through the shadows, making me flinch so hard I nearly fell over.
I was in so much trouble.
I could barely speak, words came out as dying whale noises, and I just froze.

A dark, reddish brown lycanthrope  stepped closer to me. Speckles of sunlight dotted her coat. She had a pink nose, vanilla color on her snout, throat, back, and a patch on her tail. Then a deep cocoa brown on her forehead and underbelly. A very stunning wolf, definitely the most beautiful I had laid eyes upon. 
She lowered her body as if a warning of attack. I quickly tucked my tail and lowered my head. 
"I-I-I... I was just leaving! My home is nearby I swear!" It came out more desperate than intended. 
"Nearby? You reek of SkyClan. The territory itself has to be a good twenty minutes from this very spot." A growl rang in her tone. She was getting impatient with me.
I will admit the "reek of SkyClan" offended me, my tail dropped from the submission pose. But the part that struck me the most was that I had traveled over twenty minutes away from our territory! Where was I?! 
"I-I think I'm lost...! I'm sorry! I disobeyed my parents and I really need help..." I whined, I began to get scared. 
Suddenly her eyes softened to a more sympathetic emotion. She relaxed, releasing a sigh. 
"I'm sorry... I was pretty hard on you. My name is Splinter!" Splinter raised her head, giving me a proud smile. "Today was my first day on border patrol. Leaf Clan territory is HUUUGE!"
LeafClan! That's where I had adventured to. My feet padded closer. Giving her a friendly grin, I introduced myself. 
"My name is Zal-...." I had forgotten not to give out my real name. "Ruby..." I nearly grumbled the name. 
Splinter giggled childishly. 
"Ruby? Nice." She quickly stopped, I guessed she didn't want to hurt my feelings. 
"Yeah... I absolutely hate it." There was a silence, then we both started laughing at the same time. 
"I can see why!" After our laughing session, Splinter turned around and looked at me. "I should be heading back. Would you like to meet my pack? I'm sure they wouldn't mind a visitor." 
I knew that I shouldn't, getting back home was my first priority. 
"That would be so cool! I'd be honored!" 

We hiked through all sorts of terrain. Finally we reached her pack. 
Splinter signaled me to stay back while she tells her friends and family she brought someone home. 
Seconds later she beckoned me over to meet everyone. 
"This is my Alpha, the new Beta, our best patrol team, our elder, our newest addition, and everyone else!" Splinter pointed to each one of them. Half were human, half were Lycan! I couldn't stop a huge smile from spreading ear to ear. They did what they wanted, human, Lycan, any form, anytime. They could be in the city, even attend school! 
I introduced myself to them. After that, the whole pack told stories, they told me how they lived every day. I loved it. 
"It's getting dark. Let me lead you to SkyClan border, it can get dangerous at night." Splinter insisted. I agreed, I'd need help. 
"Sure! Thanks, Splinter. Goodbye everyone! I hope we can meet again!" I shouted as I left the clearing. 
Sunlight was completely gone, only stars lit the way. I kept glancing at Splinter the whole way. She was so different than anyone I had met before. I didn't want to part ways. 
"Alright, Ruby. This is the border, you'll have to find your pack. I should get back quickly." She turned around and began padding away. 
"Splinter, wait!" 
"What?" 
"Thanks so much for today. I really enjoyed it..." 
"As did I. Let this be the beginning of a long friendship." She smiled and ran off.

Ta-Da! Finally got another challenge completed. :) I tried to make it look like sunlight shining through tree leaves XD didn't go too well.... 
Meet a new, important character in Zaliki's life. Splinter. I am going to do a lot with little Splinty XD P.S. as it is perfectly fine to draw Splinter as much as you'd like, do not use her in your challenges. Unless your challenge takes place BEFORE 2012! :) (Special Reason!) 

Also, don't critique my writing. I have car lag and really didn't put a lot of time into it. x3 

Please do not use my art in any way, shape, or form without my permission!
Feel free to comment and ask questions! :)
