Yep It's short but it's all i've got time to do. Probably won't win but hey, i've entered all the comps so far so i thought i might as well enter this one.
Once in a while
A pure black wolf ran through the forest; her head tilted to the sky as she followed the world spirit’s breath of wind which whispered to her every so often. A message had been written in the wind where two clans would meet and take part in the fight against the soul eaters.
The wolf ran out of the cover of the forest where she made her way to the shore. A grey seal was waiting for her. “You have come, oh wolf of the forest, guardian of the wolf clan” it spoke. The wolf nodded. “The wind has spoken to me, wolf clan and seal clan must meet and defeat the soul eaters and their demons.” She growled. “Then it shall be arranged, the meeting shall take place where the forest meets the sea” the seal replied as it touched noses with the wolf. As if a silent command had been sounded, the two guardians departed and returned to their clans.
Torna the wolf clan mage sat by the fire; her eyes closed as she spoke to the guardian and the world spirit. The whole of the wolf clan were sitting around the fire waiting for their mage to speak. Silence descended on the camp as Torna opened her eyes. “It has been decided between the world spirit, the seal clan guardian and our guardian that a meeting shall take place; where the forest meets the sea. There a decision will be made by both clans” she whispered loud enough for the whole clan to hear.
In the seal clan, Sinla; the seal clan mage was rasping the same the words to his clan. “Both clans will meet the day after tomorrow” the mage rasped before standing up and returning to his den.
Torna stumbled up the hill; grumbling as the seal clan mage and his clan came into view.
“Now it shall be decided.” Growled the wolf to the seal who nodded in agreement. The two guardians paused for a moment to look down on their clans before they both faded into the sky.
“So you came?” rasped Sinla. “Why wouldn’t we?” growled Torna; her wolf like eyes narrowing slightly. “It is not normal for a sea clan and a forest clan to meet so I was right to question if you’d turn up.” Sinla rasped in reply. Torna nodded as she felt the wind harden. “The world spirit does not want us to argue but to begin the meeting” she growled back. The mages locked eyes before returning to their clans. Yola stood up and walked to the front of the clans. “Seal clan have come to find out what is to be done about the soul eaters and their demons” shouted the Seal clan leader. Kasha; the wolf clan leader nodded. “I think we should attack the soul eaters where they least expect it. In their homes” he growled. “Why don’t we let them come to us?” replied Yola.
The skin boats bobbed gently on the sea’s surface as the wind made them sway with the current. A grey seal swam alongside them listening to the clans and watching the black wolf by the forest.
The clans yelled their approval at their clan leaders’ decision. “So it is agreed that wolf clan shall seek out the soul eaters then the seal clan shall make their move” shouted the wolf clan mage.
The black wolf by the forest stood up and retreated into the forest as the grey seal dived under the water.
The decision had been made and the clans were joined.
600 words. Told ya it was short. :neenerneener:
