Description
(Characters from left to right: Blackfire, Blitz, Azucar, Malice, Kronos.)
"Blitz wait come back!" Blackfire shouted at his son. Blitz didn't look back as he ran along with the frightened albino pup beside him. They charged up the hill past camp, sometimes fluttering faster with their wings.
Once they were almost up the hill the red-maned vampire bat pup shouted with determination, "Kronos! I need to speak to you!"
The large white wolf turned to them without a word along with Malice who was with him. You could see the curiosity on her face while Kronos' was unreadable. Blitz was about to speak when when a gust of wind and thundering paws sounded behind him.
"Blitz!" Blackfire said loudly. "What are you doing!? You can't address his majesty without being summoned! Come back at on-"
"It's alright general." Kronos interrupted. "I am peaked by your sons boldness." The white leader took a step forward and looked down at Blitz with a small smile. "What do you wish to say young one?"
Blackfire sat down and nervously waited for what his son would say.
"Kronos I found an abandoned vampire bat pup while I was exploring around camp." Blitz paused to see if Kronos would say anything, but had an unreadable face yet again. "He doesn't remember where he came from."
"How can -that- be?" Malice asked. "I know he's young but he should at least know something! And, he's an albino! He'll never fit in." Kronos glanced at the small wasp wolf, she knew she should be quiet and bowed her head a little. "What are trying to ask of me pup?" He said.
"I want him to stay with us. I don't want him to be abandoned again and left alone to die. He could be a great warrior." Blitz said with confidence.
Kronos lowered his eyes to the white pup, examining him. The albino had his ears pressed against his head and tail tucked between his legs. "No. He does not have the makings of a warrior of mine. He is small and scrawny."
Kronos looked at Blitz who was staring him right in the eye. After a short pause Blitz said, "Now look here! I know you're always talking about needing more warriors and wolves for your army to liberate Neves, and now that there is a future one right here you decline him? Do you see your hypocrisy?!"
Blackfire shuddered, afraid that his sons words would get him killed. He looked anxiously at Kronos for some sign as to what would happen but found none. Kronos lifted his head while maintaining eye contact with the pup who had called him out. Malice looked back and forth between the two in great nervousness and curiosity. After what seemed like ages, the white tyrant spoke. "Who would raise him?"
"My dad would. He would be my brother." Blitz responded.
"Blackfire, would you be ok with this?" Kronos asked.
"Yes sir. He could never replace Sirtet, but it would be nice to have two sons again." Blackfire said with a heavy yet happy heart.
Kronos turned back to Blitz. "He may stay and train. But i will warn you to never speak to me that way again. If you do you will suffer consequences. I have no problem punishing a pup."
Blackfires blood ran cold. He knew Kronos meant way worse than it sounded.
Blitz with fear running through his body replied. "Yes Kronos."
"Good." Kronos was turning to walk away when Malice spoke.
"Does he have a name at least?"
"It's Azucar."

Hooooo that took a long time. But I think it looks grrreeeeeaaaat! It was hard to get creative for the background but I think it turned out well too. It may not be known why (not now anyway) but this decision is one of the most important made in the story. You don't see this scene happen so that's why I wanted to draw it.
I haven't written in a while so excuse incorrect grammar. Enjoy!
