Guinevere settled herself down on the ground beside her brother and looked down at the book he was reading.
"Knights are so cool. I think Daddy probably did stuff like this everyday. It seems like such fun but dangerous at the time which makes it even better! Do you want to do that too Kay?" She asked, looking up to look at her brother.
"Aww, I'm glad Rudolf and Endless are getting along nicely." Raisa said after Ammy's explanation to where some of the knights were and she wagged her tail. "And I'm glad you guys have a break!" Raisa's eyes widened when it finally clicked in her mind what Arwen said even after the red female was gone to go find Atreyu after Ivan and Ammy pointed him out. She looked to Ivan, to Ammy, to the puppies near the door and to Ammy and Ivan again.
"I don't understand. How exactly is he a father?"
"Thanks." She said happily to Ivan and Ammy as she approached Atreyu and let out a small yip to catch his attention. He looked up from his conversation with the large family, frowned at the wolf addressing him and then his eyes widened. She gave him a small smile and wagged her tail.
"We need to talk Atreyu. It's important." "
"It's nice to meet you all." Atreyu said, bowing to Lucky's family. He heard that the girls wanted to be ladies of the room and he laughed.
"Well, it takes a lot of work to be a lady for the knights and its not all fun and games. There are the risks but eh, who knows, we'll see if you pass those requirements with the passage of time." He looked to Lucky's son and nodded. "Yes, I'm a knight. The others are off somewhere at the moment and relaxing. There is only one other knight here at the moment with his own family." Atreyu was about to continue on with talking to Lucky and his family but he heard a familar female voice address him and he looked up from them to see Arwen.
Oh no... no... no! What is she doing here?! He thought to himself as he faked a pleasant smile and turned to Lucky and his family. He suddenly felt very sick and he knew something possibly bad was going to happen very soon. "It's nice to meet your family Lucky but if you'll excuse me, there uh... something just came up."
He manuvered his way through Lucky's family and approached Arwen. He looked to the others in the room and pointed to his paw to a random corner of the room. She obidently moved towards the corner and Atreyu followed behind her. "What are you doing here Arwen?" He asked and she took a deep breath before she launched into her story. After a moment or so of their hushed exchange, Atreyu reeled back away from her and fell back. "Arwen, that's impossible! I cannot be their father!"
The black puppy (xD! I accidentally used his name) noticed that his purple little sister had joined the wonderful party here. He moved away from the happy pups conversing andd looked around to the others in the room. He noticed a black pup and a white pup sitting nearby with wings like the other pups and he stared at them for intently before he finally forced himself to look away and concentrate on his sisters playing with the strangers.
"Both of you be careful." He called to them, trying to act like he didn't really care what happened to them or not. He laid down and yawned. He watched his mother approaching a purple male that kind of looked like his littlest sister (minus the red) and he frowned. "So that's father..."
Laughing, she wagged her tail and watched as Issac rose in the air a bit and then lowered her head and twitched her tail, unsure of how to answer his question about who she was. "I uh... really don't know. I don't have a name yet." She admitted. She perked up at hearing her sister's voice and she turned to look at her little sister.
"Hey, you found us!" She looked back at Issac and Rosangela and thought for a moment and then nodded. "We could play tag. This room looks big enough for it."

Ivan watched the female walk away until Raisa spoke. "I don't know. They probably made an agreement. Atreyu can't exactly have pups with Dagger, and I'm pretty sure he wanted some of his own." He looked up with a start at Atreyu's outburst. "Or maybe he didn't choose this..." He said, frowning uncomfortably at the look on his friend's face. He knew in this situation, he could do nothing to help. What a pain.
Kay blinked slightly. 'Me? A knight like father?' He looked over at Ginny and smiled, fluttering his wings slightly. "Yeah. I do. I want to be a knight."
Feeling the fur on his neck crawl slightly, he looked to his other side and spotted the end of the black and green male pup looking at him and Ginny, right before he turned away. He grumbled slightly and went back to his book. "What about you Guinevere? Are you going to be a knight. Kinda like Journey's trying to be."
Rosangela looked around and nodded. "Tag is fun! And with everyone else around, there's a lot of obstacles to play around." She said with a giggle. She looked curiously at the red female. "No name? Really?" She looked at the purple female. "What about you?" She asked, tilting her head.
She smiled encouragingly. "At least you don't really need names for tag."
The purple puppy frowned. "No. I don't have a name either." Her ears perked up at Rosangela's comment. "You're right! We don't!" She giggled happily.
She looked over at Arwen when the male she was talking to suddenly yelled. What was that look on his face? "Mommy?" She called worridly. Was mom okay?

Ammy watched the pups out of the corner of her eye as she listened to Raisa and Ivan. She nodded at what Raisa said about Rudolf then shrugged about Atreyu being the father of the new pups that the female brought in.
Issac looked at the red pup shocked. "Thou hast no name?! Why not?" He asked before pausing, "And thou sister hast no name either?!" He shook his head and then took a breath. "Right. Names are not important in the game of tag." He said wagging his tail, "..... NOT IT!" He then shot off to make sure he wasn't tagged so quickly after declaring he was not it. He darted between his mother and godmother and then stopped by a wall on the far side of the room.

"I knew it. You always try and act like one." Guinevere paused and thought over Kay's words and flicked her tail. "I would love to be a knight Kay just so we could adventure together but I don't know... Being a lady like mother sounds boring and I don't know if father will allow me to be a knight. But I could, I would love to be like Journey. Maybe we could train together!"
"Well that is true..." She paused and looked at Atreyu at his outburst and laid her ears flat against her head. "I don't like where this is leading to." Raisa said worriedly, flicking a glance towards the puppies Arwen had left at the door. She looked back to her mate and smiled reassuringly at him. "Don't worry about it Ivan..." She yelped when she felt Issac run through her legs and she giggled as she went back to watching the puppies. "Awww they're playing tag. This is so adorable!"
Atreyu was shaking his head in disbelief and looked over at the three puppies playing. His puppies... why had he been so careless in those days before he accepted Dagger's offer.
"I know what happened months ago but that was before I uh..." Atreyu paused in his explanation at the look that Arwen was giving him. She looked so happy to be here sharing this news with him. He stood and approached her again. "All of what we did was before I found a mate. It hurts to even say this aloud now but I used you Arwen... I'm so so sorry. I just can't see myself being a father to our--your pups. All that happened between us in the past was a mistake I probably should have never done..." The moment the words left his mouth, he knew he had made a grave mistake. "No, I didn't mean it like-"
Arwen heard her purple daughter call out her name and she turned to give her daughter a reassuring smile.
"Mommy is alright. Don't worry about it." She said before Atreyu's words finally registered in her mind. Her smile fell away instantly.
"A mistake?" Arwen took a step back from him and shook her head. "How dare you call me that! I was waiting all this time for you and you call me a mistake! And you say they are my pups? Oh no... take them; name them, and you know what, you can abandon them for all I care. Do anything you want with them! I don't care anymore; they're yours now! I cannot believe you Atreyu! I don't want anything near me that's apart of you!"
She moved away from Atreyu and rushed towards the door, pushing past the others in her hasty escape. She paused to look at her children... no, His children and shook her head. "Do not come find me. I don't want any of you anymore." She said coldly to the boy but loud enough for the girls to hear as well. She threw a pained look back over her shoulder before she raced from the room. The door to the sitting room slammed behind her.
His head was beginning to hurt... he hadn't done anything at all bad in the last 24 hours so why was his head hurting? Was something bad happening? The male looked away from where his sisters were playing and listened to his mother's words. He stood up shakily when she came running forward towards the door and sighed happily.
"It's about time. I was getting tired of this-" Her final words stopped his movements and he watched her leave. He jumped when the sitting room door slammed close and backed away from it.
"I'm glad to hear that and if you needed a name, we could have just made one up and I don't know why we don't have names. Our mom never really named us..." The red puppy said, tilting her head as she remembered following her mother with her siblings through the woods. She was just glad to have others to play with now. She heard Issac shout 'Not it' and she scrambled after him. "Not IT!"
She darted off towards the window and stumbled around Kay and Guinevere. She ducked down by them to hide.

Ivan nodded back to Raisa, but his ears could still hear everything the arguing pair was loudly saying. He tensed at the words being said and tried to distract himself by watching the pups play. but they were playing with Atreyu's apparent children- He looked over at Kay and Guinevere reading and talking to each other, and that made him relax slightly. What were those two chatting about?
His head snapped back as the door suddenly slammed. That can't be good...
Kay smirked. "I guess I would fit in." He smiled encouragingly at Ginny. "Of course you could! Father would want you to be your best and with whatever makes you happy. What better way than this?" He nodded. "Journey could show you a lot of things I bet."
He jumped with a start when the red puppy was suddenly there. "Huh?" Then he saw Rosangela charging at them. "Ahh!" He shut the book quickly and laid over it to keep it safe from being trampled.
The purple puppy smiled back at Arwen. She looked at her sister with a big grin. "Not It!" She yipped, running toward her mother. Wouldn't mom be excited to know she was playing with others?! She laughed as she ran, until she saw Arwen's face. "Mo-" She started as Arwen raced past. She heard her mother's words and frowned. "Huh? What does that mean?" She looked in fearful confusion at her big brother. "Hey! What did she mean by that?!" She looked at the door. "Mommy?!"
Rosangela groaned irritably at being It, though her smile gave her away. "Look out! Here I come!" She yipped, scurrying after the red female. She jumped over her siblings trying to get at the nameless red girl.

Ammy looked up startled when Arwen ran from the room and told her pups she didn't want them. She barked to Raisa saying that was harsh. She then turned to the game of tag and nodded. It was adorable.
Issac smiled and wagged his tail when he saw that Rosangela was it. He then saw that she was going after the red girl. For some reason he suddenly felt a surge of protectiveness, like he had to protect the red female. "Hey Rosangela!" He called to his sister as he ran over towards her, "You can't get me!" He darted past her leaving enough space between them so she couldn't tag him.

Lucky bowed back to Atreyu and walked away with his family. He heard the female that had entered just before his kids shout something and then slam the door. He sighed, wondering what had happened. He told his pups to go and play with the others there while he talked with emerald.
Charlie ran over to where the other pups were playing.
"Can I join in?" He asked, clearly seeing that they were playing tag.
Natalie grabbed her flute that her father had carved for her. She liked it and all, but what she realy wanted was a fiddle. But seeing as her father's was the only one, she would have to use this for now. She activated her ability, blue note, and set about playing a gaelic lullaby she had memorized from what her father played her every night.
Llewellyn curled up beside the castle, she wasn't as active or outgoing as her siblings. She preferd a quite life, save for the music she played. Soon she was snoozing, in a dreamland all her own.

Guinevere thought over Kay's words for a moment and then nodded her head in agreement. She was sure her father wouldn't stop her if she wanted to be a knight.
"Maybe I'll ask him later when everything calms-" She heard her sister's shout and saw Kay shut the book and dive on top of it. "What is going on?" She turned just as Rosangela jumped over them to get the red female she had just noticed was standing there. She ducked down quickly and barked. "Rosangela!" Guinevere barked, shaking her head.
Raisa looked away from her puppies towards Arwen leaving. She heard her words and winced, letting out a small gasp of surprise.
"That was harsh... how could any mother say that?" She noticed Ivan was extremely tense and she gave brushed her nose against his.
Atreyu stared at the door in stunned silence. What damage had he done? He looked slowly to Ivan, Raisa and Ammy and sat down. He was unable to find his voice and after a few attempts at trying to address his close friends, he was finally able to force something out.
"You guys....I need help..." He said to them in somewhat strangled voice as he looked at the two puppies standing by the door.
The black male, like his father, stared at the door in stunned silence. He heard his little sister's voice and he turned to her and gave her a fake smile. He moved towards her and patted her on the head with his paw in his rare display of affection towards his sisters.
"It meant nothing sis. It's mom. She loves us right? I mean, why wouldn't she want us anymore?" He said hopefully, more hopeful than he felt. He felt sudden anger welling up towards the male she was arguing with and he looked over his sister's head and glared at him.
The red female laughed as Rosangela jumped over the two other butterfly kids to get at her. She jumped back to avoid getting tagged and felt her rump hit a box. She let out a squeak as she realized she was cornered. Her ears twitched as she heard Issac calling out to his sister. She looked at him for a moment and then smiled. He was saving her! She looked around trying to find a quick route of escape.

Ivan sighed and returned Raisa's affection. He turned quickly when he noticed Atreyu. "Of course." He said with a nod. He too looked at the pups, and frowned when the purple female headed toward them. 'Uh-oh'
Kay covered the book as best as he could, trying to fight off his laughter. "Rosangela! Honestly!"
Rosangela had nearly gotten the red pup when she heard Issac. Ooh! A challenge! She squealed happily, spinning to chase after her brother, but she tripped over Guinevere and fell down in a fit of giggles.
The purple puppy nodded her head, attempting to look brave for her brother. But she was scared. Why would mommy say those things if it wasn't true? She looked at the door, then over at the male that Arwen had been talking with. She stuck out her chin determinedly and padded over to the purple male, meaning to ask him calmly, but... "Why did you scare mommy away you big meanie!" She snapped in a fit of anger that had suddenly appeared and grew with each step in her walk over.

Ammy nodded then shook her head at Raisa. She had no clue how a mother could say that. She then looked at Atreyu. She barked saying of course she would help him.
Issac caught the red pup's smile. He grinned as he turned back to his sister. He had her attention and now the red pup could escape. He laughed when Rosangela fell over Guinevere. "Come on Rosangela. Come and get me!" He cried wagging his tail. He was ready to run as soon as his sister got up and came after him.

Guinevere looked at Kay and shook her head at her younger siblings antics but she couldn't help but laugh at them.
"I think they've lost their minds." She said through her laughter. She nearly jumped out of her fur when Rosangela tripped over her. Guinevere let out a high pitched squeak and began to wiggle about under her sister.
"Rosa, get off me!" Ginny whined through her bout of giggles that began to bubble up.
Laughing happily, she jumped out from being trapped and scrambled over the black butterfly pup to make her great escape. She turned back when she heard giggling and laughter and noticed that Rosangela had tripped and she warily trotted back to check on things.
"Is she alright?" She asked Issac and the others and tilted her head as she watched a white butterfly pup struggling to free herself from her sister.
"I'm sorry that you all had to hear all of that..." Atreyu sighed and let his head drop. "I'm not sure what I'm going to do actually. I don't know how to raise kids at all and I don't know how exactly I'm going to take care of these three by myself..." Let alone tell Dagger he thought to himself as his voice trailed off. He heard the small approaching foot steps of puppies and he looked up at the little purple pup and winced at her words. "Oh my daughter, I didn't scare away--" He paused and sighed. "I was.. an idiot and I'm sorry...." He said softly to her. He lifted his paw up slowly and reached out to pat her on the head. "You three will be... staying here for a while."
Raisa nodded along with the others when they agreed to help Atreyu. She heard yips and giggles and Guinevere complaining and she threw a quick glance at the pups near the window and she barked at them.
"Play nicely you four!" She called to them before turning back to the conversations the adults were having. She sighed sadly at the purple pup's words and she flicked her tail. "It's going to be alright..." Raisa said softly, trying to reassure the small, angry pup.
He admired his sister's attitude at the moment. He had never seen her so angry before and he followed after her. He sat down protectively beside her and stared up at the adults. He gave each of the adults a long glare before he centered his attention on the conversation between his sister and their 'father'.

Ivan tried to smile. "Hey, you raised Truth, remember. And you've got Dagger, and us. Truth might even like to help." He suggested. What else was there?
He frowned sadly at the young female. She was so upset, and the look on her mother's face... He doubted she would turn back on her words any time soon. He noticed the purple female wasn't the only angry one.
Kay grinned at Guinevere. "Really! You think so!" He laughed as his sisters tangled in each other, then looked up innocently at Raisa. "We are!" He yipped.
"I'm trying!" Rosangela yipped at her sister, really trying to untangle herself, but it was herd to do while laughing! She finally tripped out of the mess, rolling once or twice and still giggling. She looked up at the red puppy and smiled. "Oh, no biggie! We're fine! We're tough! We're destined for this place, you know. We've got to be tough!" She jumped up and sprinted suddenly for Issac with a playful bark.
The purple female froze. What did he say?! Did he call her daughter?! The puppy sat limply as her head was patted, the anger sapped out of her from the shock. Stay here? Three? But it should be four. What about momma? You're... daddy?
She shook her head, the suprise making her mind put uneven thoughts together and making her emotional. "But, momma said daddy was nice. He wouldn't make her run like that. Don't lie to me!" Though... he did look like momma's descrpition. She started tearing up from the confusion. She needed an adult to comfort her. The pup looked up at the surrounding adults. there were so many. Which would be nice to her? She heard the closest female's voice; the one with the wings. She sounded nice? Grasping for any stable lifeline, the pup scurried over and buried herself into the red female's fur.

(I know this is strange, but I really got to rp Lorien since she went to adult that way it won't be too much of a shocker.)
Lorien looked at the room suddenly crowded with other's children. She didn't seem to mind, but she still enjoyed her peace and quiet. The tan wolf flicked her ears back and forth a tad nervous. First she noticed that Ateryu had some puppies. She wondered who the woman was, but kept her silence since she hated to butt into others conversations, especially when it was not necessary. She then turned her attention to the butterfly children. Now she had never seen such a sight as that, but she didn't know what to say. Wolves these days seemed to turn up with anything these days. She turned her head towards Nimue. "Actually if you don't mind, I want to go for a walk for a bit to get some fresh air."

Ammy nodded agreeing with Ivan. She would help him with the pups. She then looked down at the purple female. She wondered if there was anything she could do to help the pup but then the purple pup ran over to Raisa. Ammy sighed wondering why pups never came running to her anymore. She then turned to male pup and caught his glare. She glared right back then bopped him on the head. She barked saying she will not tolerate being glared at.
Issac looked at the red female and nodded. "Yeah she's fine." He said when Rosa answered, "See. She's alright!" He then darted away as Rosangela came running at him. He yipped playfully at her. He darted across the room running straight for all of the grown-ups. As he drew closer he saw that he was going to run into the male pup. So he flapped his wings and took flight soaring over the pups head.

Guinevere heard Kay laughing and she manage to push a growl directed towards him past her laughter.
"You could help us you know!" She cried out to him. She suddenly realized she was free of her little sister and managed to push herself up and watch her as she raced away. Letting out a sigh of relief, she swatted at Kay for not helping. "Oh, I am so getting her back!" She said happily before she raced after her sister to get her back for tripping over her; yelping and barking as she ran.
"Destined for this place?" She looked around her surroundings and noticed the castle and all of the random decorations scattered around the room and she wiggled on her paws. "Wow, you guys are amazing if you're destined for this place. It looks so...so...fantastical!"
She watched Issac and Rosa heading towards her brother and her sudden happy mood dimmed somewhat as she noticed the mood he was already in. The red female trotted after them to make sure she was there to help and to continue to watch the game of tag.
"Watch out, I think he's in a bad mood!" She cried out to them. She watched Issac soar over him and sighed with relief at that.
Atreyu looked up at Ivan and was finally able to crack a smile at the mention of his adoptive daughter and mate. He chuckled and nodded.
"I'm glad to have you all then... thank you Ivan, Raisa, Ammy. I guess this could have turned out worst but, I'm glad that I'll at least have you guys here to help me."
Atreyu winced at his daughter's words and he sighed, turning his attention back to her as she sought comfort from Raisa. Letting out a heavy sigh, he began to explain himself to his friends and to the pup he felt like he desperately wanted to explain himself to.
"I didn't want your mother to run away but I'm a guy, I said something stupid. She was upset by what I said but I don't know why she thought we could have had a life together when I've only spoken to her one other time in the past and that was..." He let his voice drift off as that was something he needn't tell a young pup. "Anyway, I upset her because I have... a family already and... there's room for three more to join." He sighed again and stared at the black pup and then the purple pup. "I guess we should get to know each other... I'm sure your mother told you this but my name is Atreyu and obviously, I'm your father. Do you have names?"
Raisa nodded and. She let out a sudden squeak when she felt a small body run to her. She had expected it to be one of her own children but when she looked down, she noticed it was Atreyu's little girl. She raised her paw and began to stroke the little pup's back to help her calm down; all the while whispering soft words of encouragement to her.
When Atreyu patted his sister on the head, the young male growled. He had not wanted to jump into this argument and was satisfied with hearing his sister's angry side but he was not going to have this male touch his sister.
"Don't touch my sister..." He bit at the purple male. He would have said something further but was caught off guard by Ammy. He was not expecting to receive punishment for his glares. He never did before from his mother who would back off immediately like she were afraid of him. He looked up at the strangely marked wolf and frowned at her for bopping him on the head and for glaring at him. He raised a paw and swung it at her. Of course, he would have pounced to attack but a large green blur flying over his head caused him to yelp in surprise.
"What was that?!" He snapped, nearly falling over. He looked at the green winged thing and frowned at it. "You should watch where you're going..."
Nimue had had her bad feeling confirmed when Arwen had walked in with puppies and stormed out leaving them. She merely sat there, watching everyone and shaking her head at the going ons of everyone. Shaking her head, she looked to Lorien and wagged her tail.
"I may accompany you on this walk. I'll just come back later when everything has cooled down."
Shaking her head, Nimue let the hood of her cloak fall into place and she trotted towards the door.
