The Reflected Face (open)
#1
The water of the lakes glimmered brightly in the sunny day, looking like two mirrors being hit directly by the glare of the sun to a point where they glimmered an odd silvery color that wasn't usual for lakes. Golden sand stretched alongside the particular lake where a lone individual walked, making a sharp contrast between the water, the sand and the black part wolf that walked alongside the water. From a distance, she looked to be small and not so menacing but if one were to near her, they would find that she was a fairly big wolf, even for not being grown yet. Her purplish red eyes gazed out onto the water and her tail wagged slightly as she gazed at the lake before laying down in the sand. Despite the tranquility of the lake, the beauty of the area could not soothe the soul of the half newfie wolf dog. It was hard to when she had so many scars.

The scars weren't physical but for Aine, they were fairly crippling and difficult to handle. The black wolf drew a long breath, letting her head fall onto her paw on exhale. She missed Fabayo's parents, wishing they were around and yet she knew that the two adult wolves were dead, having been the one to have found their bodies. They had been the only wolves that had accepted her after what had happened with her family, the one she was born into. They had fed her and cared for her, teaching her better hunting techniques. When Fabayo's mother had realized she was pregnant, Aine was one of the first to hear of it and given the important job of guarding the pup. When Fabayo was born, things became so lively and Aine remembered those two months that she had been able to spend with all three of them (Since Fabayo's siblings had failed to thrive) as fun. Seeing the two young adult wolves's corpses burned a scar in Aine's mind right alongside the ones she had from the family she was born into.

Aine gave a whine, putting a paw on the top of her head as those memories hit her. Not just the image of the bodies but also the images of what she had gone through before Fabayo's family. She stood up rather sharply and hit at her reflection in the lake water. "This horrible face..." She said grouchily to herself. "If I didn't have it, none of this would've happened..." Perhaps with the smaller pup and without her, Fabayo's parents would've been able to survive. Aine brought disaster on her families... Her own mother died having her and then she knew she was unwanted. That she was a half breed and a freak within her own blood. Since it was not a full moon and it was daytime, Aine didn't shift. Changing forms was the one thing she kept to herself. She wasn't sure she could trust the others here, even if she had heard that others could shift and seen Cerrdiwyn's form.... Even despite her love for human culture, Aine refused to take the form closest to those she loved to find out about because she was so strange. Overall, the black wolf was having dark thoughts about things she didn't like to think of, negative memories that pained her. All because of the reflected face in the water.
