History
I still hear the screams.
This is my account of my past, all that I remember, and all that Niu has told me.
I remember, the bright light the tickled my eyes, the warmth, that it spread through out the den. I could see now, my eyes were open; It was grand, so very, very grand. My small skull lifted, and turned, drinking in the sights, no not drinking, gulping them down, the colors, everything in the den seemed to be illuminated; something bright, and shiny, filtered in through the entrance between, tangling dark colored stuff. My nares drew in the scents, deeper this time, everything in the den smelled earthy, and tingled with milky scents.
Niu said that Mother had picked the den to be in a place underneath the roots of an oak tree.
The ceiling it was so high above; it seemed to fade into a dark color of nothingness.
Niu’s name means God of Nothingness
My optics turned to dance upon the large form of Ra, he was bigger than Anu who was stretched out right next to me, and was even larger than me. Ra’s eyes, they were a light brown color, his pelt was like silver, that danced and shivered down him, his paws, all four were tainted in a strange pale sun like color that also struck up and down his chest.
My attention was then turned to Anu who looked at me idly for a moment, then turned his attention back to the milk, his eyes were like Ra’s, the same light color, his pelt was the same too, but there was no white or sun like color on him, just a darker grey stripe down his back. My eyes flickered over to Mother, she was a little darker than Anu and Ra, but her eyes were the same, a smile flickered over her mug, and a look that then confused me, but now reminds me of, regret…My skull flicked, to look at myself, and horror strangled my mind, I was as dark as the roof, patched here and there with white, what did my eyes look like? Why was I so different..
A scuffling at the entrance, made my small skull whip around, why was I much smaller then my brothers.. My eyes, their color unknown, fell upon a shadow as dark as the roof above me, the sun was gone for a minute, and then it was back, dancing over the dog before them, nares drew in his scent NIU!! A small smile flickered over lips, Niu was nice, and told her stories, and brought honey, though mothers forbid it. His eyes though, they were the color of the sun, but they seemed to be even greater…
Today I was four months old; today Mother said we’d go to the beach.
I played with Ra and Anu out in the clearing near the tree, they were stronger, much stronger. I could run fast, faster than both of them combined.
I could run fast, they could not.
Then it was time to go, and I remember sprinting after Mother and Niu, then plodding along later in the warm sunshine, before we turned into the cool alley, a short cut Niu said.
Niu said the alley was safe.
Then there were the dogs…
Niu was growling, they were growling, then Niu yelling at us to run..
I was running..Then there was screaming..
And I refuse to remember anymore..Niu refuses to tell me what happened..
But I know in mind, and I do not think about it, the screams, the blood, my pawss pounding, pounding..
Appearance
The form of her bod’ is that of a standard Great Dane, but she is smaller than most, built for speed, her legs though well muscled, are not to fight, they are to run. Her pads are large, making it easier to plod along the earth. Her pelt, is short, the hair that lines it does no good in the winter, the color of it reminds her of a Dalmatian, but with splotches, like someone could not decide her breed. Her entire back is struck up and down with ebonite, with very little ivory, but then it slowly fade into ivory with ebonite dalmation like spots. Her optics are a dazzling golden color, like the sun at high noon, but even brighter, grander.
Character
InK hides almost all her emotions now, displaying a calmness that is not allowed to leave, she does not speak much to anyone and when ever antoher canionie even tries to approach her, a growl comes forth, no matter the fact that they could kill her. She does not run anymore, she refuses it, the only thing she runs from is her memories.

If I remember
who will lead me away from myself
and the destruction that I would cause
who will lead me away from myself
and the destruction that I would cause
Ivory pads danced over the cracked concrete, an eerie feeling passed over her, the strange light from the lamp on the other end of the alley, cast twisitng shadows over the world. Fear clung, ripped at her mind, but it did not show on the outside, she would not let it show, refused it. Pillars, so sleek, so elegant, carried the canine forward. Her different hued bod' slunk through the shadows, that darkened the sides of the alley, knowning that if she stepped into the light, she woudl be seen. Paw tripped something from the shadows, with a clang it danced into the light...The growls came first, then the chilling screams. Heart stopped, ivory struck mug was parted, and her own voice joined in the wailing, as the slobbering jaws of the other canine snapped at her boa.
Gold struck optics flickered open, she was still curled under the bush, the much larger black form of Niu next to her, safely guarding her from the world outside. A shiver tainted her bod', and young skull was turn and buried into his chest, He was the closest thing to family she had, he would save her...
*OOC, she considers Niu a brother, and Niu considers her as a sister.
