  It has been a few weeks since you have been born. Your eyes and ears have opened, and you have realized that the wiggling things beside you are your brothers and sisters.
  
  You want to go explore. Your den site is under a tree, and there are a bunch of places to discover. When you look around, you see a hole near the tree. You also spot a stone structure arching over two cliffs, and big smelly things walk on it. Underneath it is a creek running through.
  
  [Author's Note: This is the story about a dog. You're the dog, (Labrador) and the choices you make affect your life. This is my first story on here and I hope you like it. If there's any mistakes/bugs, comment them, please.]
  
  > Hole
  You stumble over to it and poke your head through. You sniff around, but can't exactly tell whether it's empty or not. You pull your head back, but it's stuck! You struggle and struggle. Finally, you cry for Mother.
  
  You feel something pull you out of the hole. You look up to see Mother begin to give you a bath. After that, she picks you up and puts you back with your siblings. Now where would you like to go?
  
  > Stone Structure
  You stumble over to the structure, running up the hill and close to the foul smelling black path. Mother calls for you, but you ignore her, walking along the structure, careful not to touch the black path.
  
  Then a cra-no, your certain it's car, blows past you, the wind pushing you over the stones and into the water below. You yelped as the water swallowed you whole.
  
  You looked around and scrambled to get to the top. But the water pulled you farther down, deep into it's dark space...
  
  You felt teeth grab your scruff and pull you up. Now that you were above water, you gasped for breath. Mother carried you back to the den site and sat you down. You shivered, now wet and cold.
  
  > Creek
  You walk over to the creek, aware that your siblings are following you. Once you get to the creek bed, a frog jumps up onto a lily pad. You lunge for it, but it hops away before you can catch it.
  
  Mother decides the creek isn't safe for you and takes you and your siblings back to the den site.
  
  > You're done exploring
  You decided enough is enough, for now. A cold wind blew, and everyone snuggled closer to Mother's warm fur...
  
  > Forest
  A few days later, Mother leads you and your siblings into the woods a little ways away from the den. She showed you the smell of water, and caught a squirrel, demonstrating how to catch prey. After you wandered for a bit, you came to a clearing where humans were camping. You learned the scent of humans. Mother trotted up to a big metal trash can and showed you all how to push it over. She quickly threw the inedible things away, and you all feasted on the edible.
  
  Then a yelling human ran at us. Mother ran, and we followed her as best as we could. But then you started losing sight of her, and had to use your nose to find her again.
  
  Then your foot got stuck in a hole. You cried for Mother or your siblings, but they never showed. Finally, you tugged free of the hole, and ran to catch up with them.
  
  A few minutes later you were exhausted, and still no sign of your family. Whimpering, you stumbled over to a tree, and curled up for the night.
  
  The next morning you searched for your family again. You chose to search...
  
  > North
  The north side of the forest held pine trees and lots of squirrels. Ignoring them, you sniffed the air as you walked around, but you couldn't see, hear, or smell them, no matter how hard you strained your senses.
  
  A squirrel jumped onto a tree, startling you. You realized your family wasn't in the North side of the woods after all.
  
  > Edge of the Forest
  You see light up ahead. You run towards it, thinking that maybe on the other side, your family awaited there. You burst out but no dogs were in sight. Instead, there were houses and buildings where children played. You padded over to the fence where they were. A little girl walked over and put her hands past the cage. You sniffed them for a second before licking them. She laughed and took out a sandwich, ripping off a chunk before holding it out. You...
  
  > Bit the hand
  The girl cried out and ran away from you. You felt a little guilty, but it was too late to do anything now.
  
  > Houses
  You wandered around the houses for a bit, observing people getting into cars, getting out of cars, and doing other things.
  
  Then you smelled smoke.
  
  You looked around, trying to figure out where it came from. Across the street, you smelled that the scent was strongest inside a house. You ran over and peered through a window. The food on the oven was on fire, and there was a woman sprawled out on the floor.
  
  > find a way in
  You walk up to the front door and cock your head at it. Something shiny catches your eye. You leap up and push it down with one of your paws. The door opens, and you trot inside.
  
  The fire has spread from the food to some papers on the counter. The wooden cabinets are on fire, too. The woman on the tile is still breathing, but is probably passed out.
  
  > drag the woman outside
  You grip her shirt with your teeth,and start dragging her across the floor. Finally, you made it outside. Just to be on the safe side, you drag her until she is on the sidewalk. What to do now?
  
  > wake her
  You lick the woman awake, and she slowly sits up just as a siren wails. A big red truck comes on the black path, and you hear the woman gasp as people rush over to her.
  
  "My child is still in there!" you didn't understand what she was saying, but she sounded distressed.
  
  > go upstairs
  You run upstairs, and hear someone fast asleep. You push open the door, and see a small boy asleep on his bed. Yowake him by licking his face, and together you two leave the house, dodging fire as you went.
  
  > Hero
  Both you and the child are covered in smoke and he coughs, but otherwise you both made it out safely. People carried the child away on a stretcher, and they carry you away, too. The last thing you see of the house is flames and people drenching the place. You hear a woman saying: "That dog is a hero. That dog saved me and my son!" You try to lift your head, but suddenly your whole body feels heavy, and you want to close your eyes...
  
  > Hospital
  You wake up in a comfy dog bed which is in a cage. There's food and water in the corner. Other dogs are barking, too, and you that there is something on your neck. You feel your private itching, so you go to bite it, but the cone on your neck prevented you from itching it. You whimpered and shook your head, feeling a bit thirsty.
  
  When you got up, you started to ache all over. You quickly lapped up some cool water before laying back down on the bed.
  
  A woman with the family that you had saved from the fire came over.
  
  "We neutered (him/her) so that we could stop overpopulation." the woman said.
  
  "Can we adopt him, mommy?" the little boy asked. She looked down at his pleading eyes, then stole a glance at you. I blinked and started to pant, my tongue flopping out.
  
  "Sure." she whispered. The little boy smiled. You still never understood what they were saying.
  
  > Adopted
  About a few weeks later, right after they took off the stupid cone, The woman and boy came. You learned the both their names, Mom and Greg. After writing something on a piece of paper, Mom went and put a red collar and leash on you.
  
  "What should we call him?" Mom asked.
  
  "Hero! Let's call him Hero! That's what they call him in the news." Greg said. Mom smiled and nodded before walking out. That leash thing that was connected to your collar began to drag you after them. Since you didn't want to be dragged, you followed them, until they got to the car.
  
  Remembering your puppy memory of how a car blew you into a creek, you backed away from the car, tugging at the leash.
  
  "It's fine, Hero. Hop on in." Mom said, opening the back door. You cocked your head. Was that what they were going to call you from now on?
  
  Mom sighed and picked you up, putting you on the leather seat. Before you could run out, she shut the door and climbed in. The car started to move. You decided to poke your head out the car window. After that, the wind blew on your face, and you stuck your tongue out. Maybe being in a car wasn't so bad after all.
  
  You barked at the other dogs on other people's lawns, and they responded. You felt pretty smug that you were in a car and not them. They were probably very envious.
  
  Soon the car stopped in front of a different house than the one that was on fire. An old lady came out and Greg ran out.
  
  "Grandma!" he yelled, running over toward Grandma. You climbed out the window and over to the grass. After doing your business, you padded over to Mom, who picked you up and carried you inside.
  
  > Home
  After a while, you found this place to be your home. Your dog family soon became a distant memory, now that a new human family had taken place. You had a very big backyard and a very big house. Life was good.
  
  > Finished (Only click if your done with the memories)
  Soon, you were full sized. Winter was coming in, and it had been a few years since you had been here. Snow completely covered the backyard, making you rush whenever you had to go to the bathroom.
  
  > Tommy
  There was a kid who used to be friends with Greg. He had a bad smell on him, as if something wasn't right about him. You always tried to stay away from him.
  
  One day you and Tina were in your front yard. Greg had went inside for a moment, and you and her were playing tug of war. She was 15 now, Greg 16.
  
  Tommy had walked over, and you dropped the toy, growling at him. Tina looked at him.
  
  "Hello." she said. He greeted her back.
  
  "So, why are you in Greg's front yard?" he asked.
  
  "He's going to get some hot chocolate."
  
  "Ditch him. I'm way cooler than he is." You had no idea what he was saying, but you could sense that Tina felt disgust towards Tommy.
  
  "No." she had said. Then she ignored him, and began to pet you. Anger had flickered in him, and you sensed that he had turned worse. He left right before Greg came out with drinks. You couldn't tell for sure, but you thought she never did say anything about Tommy.
  
  > Adult Life
  Your family had put up the tree they had up every year.
  
  > Sled
  Greg was really exited. He had a board that he called a sled. Mom told him something that had the words "go outside" so you assumed that he was going outside. You wagged your tail, wanting to come with. You barked with joy when he led you out.
  
  All of the people with sleds were on top of a snow covered hill, and Greg and you went to join them. Tina was there, too, and they both smiled at each other.
  
  Then, they got on their sleds. You started to climb on, but Greg stopped you. Then they went down. Without you! You ran to catch up with Greg. Tommy was a little faster than him.
  
  Your family had put up the tree they had up every year.
  
  > Dragged (Do after memories are done)
  While you were out exploring the snow filled town, you came upon Tommy's house. he was in his front yard, blowing up some dolls. His little sister was crying, but he seemed to ignore her.
  
  He looked up and stalked over to you. You growled as he grabbed your collar and began dragging you toward his house.
  
  > let him drag you
  Once inside, he led you to what looked to be his room. He locked you and him in there, and fed you something that stung your nose. You felt dizzy a minute later, and flopped on the ground. As you slowly died, you felt as if you were a puppy, trying to swim to the surface of the creek yet never making it there.
