Hello. My name is Sihu, which means flower. There is a reason for my name. You see, my parent's they found me in a field of flowers when I was only but and infant. Yes, I am not of their blood, but I am very thankful. I say thankful because you see, my adopted parent's are humans while I am a wolf. They ignored their kind for my sake,a nd took the responsibility of an infant wolf. They had no clue how to care for a young pup as myself. Still I am thankful, but to be frank I truly do not know what I am. I've lived such a long time with them being so lost. Feeling both as a human and a wolf. I've wondered so many times about my past. Where did I come from? Who did I belong to? Why was abandon? I have this recurring dream of someone holding me very closely, as if this person was protecting me from danger. I remember this person was a woman. Vaguely. Could she have been my mother? Could we had been in danger? Did she have to abandon me to save me? I always ask myself these questions, but still no answers. Was there anyone in this world that could give me these answers? Someone? Anybody!?
*What Sihu didn't know was that she had belong to a Clan of Wolves, one of great power and strength. Unfortunately, one faithful night which was to be a grand celebration became her Clan's worst possible nightmare. The Clan was under attacked, so many lives were taken that night. Her father and mother where in their chambers, Sihu cried in her mother's arms. Her father turned to both telling them they needed to run to the safe house with the others. That he with the other men would take care of their unwanted guest. They kissed, and her father kissed Sihu's little head, and dashed out trying to lure the enemy away from them. Her mother took Sihu and ran, but as soon as they had left the gates of their home one of the enemies caught a glance of her. He took chase, and Sihu could only do was run the other direction away from the safe house. She could not lure him to her people for fear of them being killed. She only hoped she could outrun this wicked beast. He had shot at her and nicked her right at her heel of her ankle. She whimpered, but only a bit trying to focus to keep her child safe. It didn't seem that he taken notice of Sihu either. Suddenly she arrived at a field of flowers, and knew that her ankle was going to slow her down. It was best to hide Sihu and fight. Their was a large log right smack center of the field. She looked at her little Sihu and kissed her forehead. She'd whispered to her, "Love you, my little Sihu." She placed her in quickly and dashed quickly at another direction. Just as she was going back into the forest another shot was directed to her getting her right shoulder. She cried out and growled this time baring her teeth to him. Showing him that she wasn't afraid of him and that she fight him head on. He sneered and growled back. "How dare you call yourselves wolves! How dare you betray us! We were suppose to be kin! Family damn it! Mark my words, Kai will make sure each and every one of you pay!" She roared as she transformed into her wolf form and charged at him. He did as well and they battle it out.
Sihu's mother stood over the traitor covered in blood. Most being it hers. The male wolf lay on the floor grinning, "Y-You...p-pretty strong..." He chuckled coughing up blood as he laid on the floor unable to move. He was dying. "Y-You think this is over...this is only the beginning...hehe...he will win...he will defeat Kai...w-we will...w-win..." He died with a smug on his face. Sihu look at the traitor displeased, but quite content that she was able to take him down. She turned towards the direction of Sihu, and slowly made her way back. However, she was losing blood too quick. The damage was too great. "S-Sihu...K-Kai..." Her vision became blurry she couldn't see very well. She had to call Kai. She begins to howl, over and over again. Hoping that Kai would hear her call.
Back at the battle, Kai and the other men who were still standing was taking back control. Then suddenly he heard a familiar howl. His Clan heard it as well. "Maka! Sihu!" Kai's second hand man assured him that they had everything in control. "Thank you Kele, both of you, come with me!" They rushed out to follow her howls, but soon enough they couldn't hear them anymore. It worried Kai. "MAKA! MAKA!" He howled for her again and again, but no answer. Soon enough they found her laying on the ground floor. "Maka! Maka darling! Wake up! I'm hear! I'm hear! It will be all right my love!" He pleaded her to stay awake. Maka smiled softly at him. "S-Sihu...s-she's s-safe..." She coughed up blood. "I...l-love you...y-you know that..." She smiled. "Stop talking woman! Your going to be find. Koby has gone to look for her, so just wait. Help is coming. Don't die on me Maka. Sihu needs you...I need you damn it!" He shouted trying not to lose his complete mind. Maka smiled up at him and caressed his cheek. "I-I'm sorry...I c-couldn't be stronger...t-that I couldn't be with you more...I... l-love you both so much...I...I...love you...Kai..." And in his arms she dies.
Kai lays her body down, feeling so much rage build up and he released the most horrific howl that anyone could hear. The Clan could hear the tragic news of Maka's death. They howled back and mourned for Maka. What was worse was there no trace of Sihu anywhere. "How is that possible?! Look again! I need her to be found! Do you understand!? Find my daughter! I will not finish searching high and low for her!" He bared his fangs and roared angrily. He knew he shouldn't blame his men. they were doing all they could do. No, the one he should be blaming is him. "If I ever get my claws on you Kuruk, I will make sure your death is slow and painful. I will make you wish you'd never had crossed me! You'll pay!" He roared vowing vengeance to Kuruk and his clan.
What Kai didn't know was that two humans had heard danger in the woods where they were picking herbs. While they were running through the field of flowers, the human woman had heard little cries. There they saw little Sihu, wrapped up in a light blue blanket. Fearful of whatever was around, they wouldn't wish it on the little one and thought it was best to take her back home with them. Unfortunately for the wolves they didn't realize that they had traveled in a wagon and quite a ways away from wolf territory. "It's all right little one. We've got you," Said the female human. "Do you think every one back home would be upset? You know bringing this little pup with us. Their not going to be too happy about it," Her husband said nervously. "I do not care. We couldn't just leave this little one alone. What if she was killed, hmm?! Have you ever thought of that?!" She argued with her husband but smiled at Sihu. She then noticed a pendant around her neck that said Sihu. "Sihu? Oh! Her ears twitched, must be her name. How pretty," She smiled and Sihu smiled back which also made the male human smile. "Find you win love. I'll make sure to talk to the elders back at the village. She's our responsibility now," He said to her which made his wife very happy. She kissed him and thanked him, and the three went back to their village very happily. So that's the story on how Sihu arrived to be in the arms of humans.
Kai, in all this time had made his Clan even more stronger , and making sure their home never had another repeat of last time. He still searches for Sihu. The many male wolves that served him, and their mates had all children. They would be around Sihu's age or about a year or 2 older. They've all grown up together, and they've grown to be great warriors. One in particular is Kai's right hand man Kele's son. He is quite popular with the ladies, and Kai would think if Sihu was here he'd be a perfect match for his daughter. Obviously, Kele's son would have to challenge him if he wanted to marry his daughter. Kai shook his head still day dreaming in the day he'd finally see her. "I wonder what she's doing now? I know your alive Sihu. I can feel it! I will find you and I will bring you back home. I promise!" He vowed again and again after 20 years. She would be 21 years of age now.*
