 All there is is darkness.
But then...the chirping of birds, the smell of grass and clean air, and suddenly light fills your puppy eyes. As you open them, you are aware that you are in a meadow, but where, you can't remember.
In fact, you can't remember anything. You sit up and look around you-there are other pups, some awake, some not, but no one else. Who are you? Why are you here?
The is the story of the Forgetting.The fire raged as the wolves tried to carry their pups from the den. The pups were all unconscious, having breathed in the noxious fumes from the burning forest around them. The elders barked directions, to the Last Safe Place. A few wolves raced through the forest, desperate to get the pups out alive, desperate to save them from the war they knew nothing about. Unrest had broken out among the wolves some time ago, and had swiftly devolved into civil war. The wildfire, sparked by lightning, was their only chance to get out alive. The pups were carried by the teeth of their families to the Last Safe Place, but the elders knew they couldn't stay, else their secret be revealed to the Warring Packs. So the pups were left in a quiet meadow, with the prayers that when the war was stopped, they could grow up in a world of peace. This is the story of the Forgotten.

Light....speckles of light.
The rust-brown pup stirred in the grass, sending little puffs of white sailing into the air. When his eyes opened, he they were flooded with the blue of the sky.
The pup rubbed his back into the grass, breathing in the smell. He sat up and looked around.
Mountains....
Suddenly a little pit formed in his stomach. Where am I? How did I get here? and....who are they? he asked himself. There was a stinging on one of his ears and he itched it, recoiling when pain shot through his head. He yipped and rolled over, a bit of blood sticking to his paw.
What happened to me?

Kefira flicked open an eye. Another pup was waking up, and this one appeared to be very frightened. Sighing, she pulled herself to her feet
"Are you alright?" Kefira asked, her voice surprisingly mature. She shook out her fur a bit, sending strands of grass and white fluff everywhere.
She returned her gaze to the pup, nervousness twisting uncomfortably in her stomach. She didn't like being this close to so many pups.
But it did not show in her steady, calm gaze. She was waiting for a response from the rust colored wolf, and that was all she let him know. He couldn't know that she was fighting against her fight-or-flight instinct, which was strongly leaning towards flight. He couldn't know that she was plotting a way to escape the meadow and find someone who could take care of them. He coldn't know that she was a schemer.
So she opted not to tell him. Instead, she waited patiently for him to respond, and kept herself peaceful and reassuring.

"Aach!" Corra spat out some grass that had floated into his mouth. He looked at the she-pup next to him, then slowly advanced until they were only centimeters away. "I'm fine. My name's Corra. Who are you?". He looked into her eyes. So pretty... The stinging in his ear brought him back, though.
He turned his gaze back to the meadow, where a few other pups were now convening as they were, and tried not to think about the horrible itch coming from his ear.
"What's wrong with my ear? Can you see it?" he asked the pup next to him. "I'm a little scared..."

Nightpaw opened her blue eyes against the bright light and looked around. What happened? Where's mother? She looked around at the other pups and noticed there were no adults. She let out a small whimper and crouched down low with her tail tucked under. Then she saw that two pups where awake and flicked her ears up, alert to what they were saying. Curiosity taking over from fear she got up and padded over towards them confidently. "Hi, I'm Nightpaw." She looked at them as she introduced herself; they didn't look familiar.

Kefira stepped back from the pup. "It looks like it's burnt a little bit." she murmured, inspecting his ear from a distance. "As to why it's burnt, don't bother asking me. I really have no idea." she added before the pup could ask more questions.
Another pup waltzed up, and Kefira flicked her ears back. She took another generous step back, distancing herself from the pup who called herself Nightpaw. "Hello. My name is Kefira. What about you?" she asked, nodding towards the pup with the burnt ear.

Seph opens his eyes, then growls and mumbles to himself, "what's with all this noise?"He stands up and stretches then wonders over and sits by the base of a tree. "I hate loud people."

"Oh! I'm Corra" The pup's tail began to wag. Two pups already? He wondered how many others there were. "Nightpaw and Kefira. It's nice to meet you both. By the way....where are we?"
Corra arched his neck to look over the meadow. There were huge mountains looming on every side, covered in snow even though the meadow was warm and bathed in sunlight. He closed his eyes, letting the sun make colored spots behind his eyelids. He smacked his mouth. Thirsty....
"Wanna go look for some water?" the rusty-colored pup asked, his tail starting to wag.

Nightpaw watched the other pup back up, curiosity shining in her eyes. "I don't know where we are." she said, starting to look around, she had no memory of comming here or where she had come from. She sniffed around, hoping that would tell something, only to wrinkle her nose at the smell of smoke wafting off of their fur. The sharp smell burnt her nose and she back up hastily until her bum hit the ground, pawing at her nose to get rid of it, only making it worse cause the smell was on her paws. "Ugh! what's that smell? and why does it hurt my nose?" She rubbed her nose with her paw again.
"Maybe water will get rid of it." She stated as the other Corra suggested looking for some. "I'll follow you." she said, knowing she wouldn't be able to smell anything until the smoke smell disappeared.

Kefira closeed her eyes, trying to remember something - anything - about life before now. She could picture a few things. She saw a wolf, an older version of herself, standing beside a wolf who looked nothing like her. She saw pups, playing, nipping at eachothers' tails. And she remembered... fire. Orange and gold licking at her fur, sparks flying, wolves running... it was horrible.
She opened her eyes, forcing the images out of her thoughts. She shook her head, blinking at the bright light that filled her vision. She noticed another pup, this one away from the others. She trotted over, making sure to keep a safe distance from the pup.
"Are you alright?" Kefira asked, looking for any obvious damage. She was suddenly aware of how much she smelt of smoke and ash. It hurt her nose, causing it to twitch slightly.

Seph rolls his eyes and lays down with his head on his paws, "I don't understand the big deal with the smell. It's not that bad." He shrugs and watches the others carefully.
