If you haven't guessed already, I am Diogenes. I'm the shadow of the forest; leader of a small group of renegade wolves. I wield extrordinary power, power that was rightfully seeked out and earned. How did I rise to such prominence? Well, allow me to tell you.
I started out weak. When my father left me and my brother in a lonely forest, we were only pups. But I hated my brother for being mother's favorite, so I left him a few days later. My puphood is was not desirable. I was vulnerable, and weak. Older, more aggressive wolves harrassed and bullied me on a daily basis. Food was hard to find. I either had to kill prey myself, or fight for a scrap to eat. Many lonely days were spent with an empty belly and a bruised and broken body, not to mention a bruised and broken spirit. I never forgot.
When I become older and stronger, I challenged every rogue and loner I met. I even challenged the very wolves that bullied me when I was a pup. They grew older while I grew stronger. Youth overtook old. By fighting two or more wolves at a time, I became wittier and faster. Every rogue knew my name, and they stayed out of my way. I could have stopped there, but I wanted more power. I had an insatiable desire.
One night, I met up with my brother, Pendergast. I killed the gray wolf that was with him, and would have killed him then and there had not Blackrose intervened. Her protection of him disgusted me. At that time, I always thought of love as a poisonous feeling that seeped through the veins to reach the heart, the weakest part. It can make or break what you are. Angry at my first defeat in moons, I left them with an ominous warning. I was going to make the moon black. I left them confused. It amused me, but the events to come would totally change who I am.
It was raining the first time I saw her. I was seeking information on the Moonstone, but Sapphire and Blaze were not wielding any desirable answers. Guarded answers. As I left to leave the incompetent duo, that's when Keeva came. She was stunning, with a beautifully slender frame and glimmering emerald eyes. But I quickly shrugged it off and headed out into the storm. Soon I heard someone calling me. When I turned around, I saw that it was Keeva. She wanted to help me. She lead me to the Moonstone, where we both received supernatural powers.
I expected her to leave to fulfill her own, evil fantasies with her powers, but Keeva surprised me. She wanted to help my cause, become partners in crime. An accomplice, etc. I agreed, though secretly I knew having her constantly by my side wouldn't help my plight. My defenses were starting to fail. I didn't realize the depth of my emotions until it was tragically too late. I loved Keeva, but she would never truly know now.....
When Keeva and I went to negociate with Yellowstar, I couldn't help but notice Keeva and the Shadowpack wolf, Sunrise, quietly exchanging words. As if I couldn't hear them. My heightened senses picked up every word. Outside, I was calm and intimidating, but inside, I was fuming with jealousy. Over time, I woke up to an empty barn just about every morning. I didn't need to guess where Keeva was. With him...., I thought grudgingly. Sunrise left to be with Keeva. They were mates now, with pups. My resolves were falling apart around me, and I didn't know how to pick up the pieces.
I decided Keeva didn't need me anymore when she already had what she wanted.
I felt betrayed.
I was the one who accepted her, despite her mixed heritage.
I'm the one who guided her along on her journey.
I loved her first.............
It no longer mattered anymore. As long as Keeva was happy. We can master the world, but we can never truly master ourselves. I told Keeva I was going to leave her. She begged me to stay, but I asked her why she needed me when she had power, a mate, and pups. It was every wolf's dream. It had been my dream. I left anyway, regardless of her tears. I know I was hurting her, but somehow I thought it was the right thing.
The days to follow were not at all good. I was stuck again at step one. Alone, with absolutely no plan at all. I stayed in the forest; the barn gave way to memories that I didn't want to think about. Then one night, I decided to sleep in the barn. Might as well. But when I came in, I heard someone sobbing. I froze. it couldn't be...Keeva was here! I didn't know what to do, but I stepped forward and tried to console her. She thought she was hallucinating, as she so bluntly put it. I didn't realize how much pain I'd caused us both.
But now I had to say it. I loved Keeva, and I told her so. I knew it was forbidden; Keeva had a mate, but my passion run deep, and I couldn't turn away. I couldn't hurt her anymore than I already have. I thought about what a horrible wolf I am. It saddened me, which was clear in my expressions. Keeva and I slept together in the barn, and she left early in the morning, to get back to Sunrise before he realized she was gone. The following afternoon, she told me she was to have my pups. I revelled at this, though it only made the situation more dire, more dark and forbidden. I couldn't father these pups! With Sunrise constantly around, I would never meet them, know them..but as long as Keeva and I are a team, then perhaps that would help to my advantage.
So now that you've heard my story, you know can truly say you know me. But...don't tell anyone, or I'll come and find you. -growls-
