Sun

Sun thinks too highly of herself, and she has quite the ego. She claims she was from a great pack high in the sky, with wolves who chased the sun for fun and slept on the moon. Truth is, she was born to a lone she-wolf who vanished one night. She was abandoned by her mother and left to starve. She wont tell anyone that, through.

 "Mommy?" Sun squeaked, looking up at her mother " Where do the woods go? " Her mother looked down at her "Shh. Go to sleep." sun flattened her ears and let out an indignant wimper " But im hungry! " she felt her mother's thin fur bristle "So am i!" she snarled, her eyes glowing with contempt "Be happy with what you have! " Sun cringed backwards and crawled away from her mother, to the back of the den.When her mother was angry it made her sad. She felt like it was her fault for most of the things, but it wasn't her fault dad left, right?

She awoke at night, the moon's pale light beckoning her outside. Her mother was gone, and her sent was stale. sun stumbled out into the field, the cool wind ruffling her scraggly fur. "Mommy?" she called out. No response. 

The only thing left to do was follow her smell, like her mom told her months ago. She set her nose to the grass and followed, but the woods were too long and the grass too thick. The trees towered over her and the smells of the whole world filled her nose. "Mommy!" she squealed and ran blindly across the woods, darting in random directions , following every vaguely familiar sent untill she bumped right into a coyote. 

The coyote snarled and lunged at her, and Sun coiled into a ball, preparing for teeth to sink into her flesh, but the pain never came. She opened an eye to see that the coyote was staring at her with sad eyes "Hello little one. Im sorry i scared you. Are you lost?" Sun nodded slowly, eying the coyote warily " My mommy left, and i dont know..i cant find her. " She whispered. The coyote nodded "I smelled a wolf nearby. She smells like you. Come, we'll find her together."

 After a few miles of walking, they made it to a thin band of trees. "Why are we stopping?" Sun looked up at the coyote who shook her head " This is the end of the woods. The end of the world. Your mother is gone, little one. " Sun stepped forward, the scents coming from the trees were clean. she could smell her mother clearly, it was as if no animal had tread there. "The end of the world? thats impossible!" sun said, staring into the beyond. " But here it is. none return from this point. The woods go on forever, yet they end here. the grass and water end. Come. There is nothing for us here. " Sun wimpered and looked at the coyote and back to the End. It called her, the strange rocks that grew into the sky beckoned her just like the moon, the never ending grass waved and sung, but as the coyote's footsteps grew dimmer she retreated and bounded after her.
