The Dawn Howl.. (Story By Whitestar)

Hey here is a random short story i wrote about Dawnclan =3 (and the Dawn Howl)

The Lost Melody of the Dawn

A she-wolf stood upon a ridge, overlooking deep canyons. . home. A crisp breeze carried many scents from the surrounding territories an beyond. The wolf was silhouetted stark black against the sun, climbing over horizon. The newborn light swept over the dieing night sky and gleamed red, orange, and pink and it rose into the new day. The morning light filtered through the wolf's fur, making her white pelt gleam as if it was far off star. She lifted her head into the wind as it tussled her white-silver coat. The wolf took a deep breath and let out a single, pure note. The canyons echoed back the melody, creating a haunting whisper. The howl was simple, yet filled with many years of emotion, sorrow, and wisdom in the voice. Soon other wolves joined in and the mountains were filled with a symphony, breaking the eerie silence like ice. They howled to the rising sun as it spread its rosy tendrils into the fading black sky. All of the animals for miles around heard it. Even coyotes, badgers, birds, foxes, and the other canyon dwellers heard it. They knew not what it was for, but somehow they knew it was something special. So little rabbits poked their heads from their burrows. They gathered their offspring around them, twitching their long, furry ears in eager attention to the mournful, yet peaceful song. As the pack of wolves howled they could almost sense their long gone ancestors there beside them. The sky turned from red-orange to pink then faded into a pale blue. The alpha motioned her clan to stop with her tail, and the howling ceased. The last notes faded away with the wind. Then all was silent. The pack padded away silently to their dens. Both pack and song disappeared as if it did not exist. Yet the wolves melody lived on in those who heard it. And if you listened closely, you can almost hear the howl of a wolf when the sun overcomes darkness each sunrise...

The end!
