I once had a snow owl named Miracle. Ever since I hatched the little mutated snow owl, we had great adventures, all over the ark universe. We braved the wyvern trenches of ragnarock and valguero, we went into the depths of aberation, and we explored the amazing regions of genesis! We even went into genesis volcano, and a literal miracle happened. My character was glitched in the volcano, and I couldn’t get out! Miracle tried to help by fending off magmasaurs. The volcano eventually erupted, instantly killing me... when I respawned and noticed Miracle wasn’t dead, I was confused. “How didn’t it die in the eruption?” I reentered the volcano, and to my surprise, my beloved owl was alive! From that day on that snow owl was known as Miracle, because of this! A couple weeks later, we were doing a big expedition to ark extiction, to get the Tek replicater tekgram. After we successfully defeated a purple Orbital drop, with help, we decided to go back to our home base on ragnarok. When we got to the city terminal, I cryopoded Miracle and started the transfer process. But something went terribly wrong. The game froze, and I had to reboot my game. When I uploaded to ragnarok, EVERTHING in my inventory was gone....including the cryopod with Miracle...😔 My character and all my levels and engrams were still intact though...so it’s very strange....
Wherever you are Miracle....I will always cherish you, love you, and remember you............Forever

Both Ruby and Neddy arrived back at the campsite to the sight of Borealis staring at the sunset and Nova dozing away. Nova’s dodo bird had his head perched on her leg.
“Borealis,” Neddy called out meekly. Borealis looked back at Neddy without even a hint of care. Ruby clenched her fists at the look on Borealis’ face. Seeing it much more clearly now, she recalled just how much she hated him, not just for what he did to her friend, but for how little he really cared about her.
If she could abandon him now, leave him to rot, she would. And nothing would change her mind.
“He’s even worse than back in his freshman and sophomore years. At least he could pretend he was human,” Ruby thought deep in her head as they approached Borealis, “I guess all that happened was him showing his true colors.”
“You were given aid from Ruby, which I should have expected, so be it,” Borealis continued, looking him up and down. “So tell me. Where is the firewood?”
Neddy’s eyes widened, patting his underwear.
“Oh no, I completely forgot! I—”
“Unacceptable,” Borealis sneered, standing up and looking down at Neddy, “You are not only weak, but you are plainly incompetent. Gnats like you serve no purpose on the path to survival.”
“You shut it!” Ruby shouted, taking a step forward. Borealis shot a snideful look at Ruby.
“Watch your mouth around me, woman.”
Ruby reached into her pouch and took out a few handfuls of thatch along with the firewood she’d collected after killing the Ichthyornis.
“If you’re so good, you could’ve just gotten this yourself, or assigned me to do the job,” Ruby declared, chucking the logs one by one at Borealis’ head. He catched it with ease.
“You just want to bully him. So I’m not gonna watch my mouth, you hear me?”
Borealis grumbled in annoyance. His grip on the wood became tighter.
“Neddy. Ignore her. You start the fire and prove your utility. Now.”
He dropped the logs near his feet. Ruby looked over at Neddy.
“Hey, don’t—”
Too late. Neddy already scurried off, kneeling down to pick up the firewood. In a scramble, he rushed to the side and began arranging the logs in a circle. Ruby looked over at Borealis with a glare of hatred.
“You really are a monster, aren’t you?”
“I am not a monster!” Borealis huffed, “You know nothing, and I say, NOTHING, of my own troubles. What I’m doing with the boy? It’s barely the surface of what I had to endure.”
Borealis turned away.
“You will understand one day, Ruby Wright, how necessary this will be for our survival, both here and in the real world.”
Ruby felt something stir within her heart. She forced herself not to shoot him in the head with an arrow. The gall of Borealis was unreal to her.
“You really are a narcissist,” Ruby spat, “Just because you have a sappy backstory doesn’t mean you can force it onto people like Neddy.”
Neddy looked up slightly at Ruby as she spoke out against him. He aimlessly rubbed wood together, watching her speak with great interest.
“That makes you a villain too.”
Borealis froze up. He let out a deep breath. Ruby wasn’t sure if Borealis liked that title— but she wasn’t too sure if she should keep pushing it. She glanced over at Neddy, who was still struggling with getting the fire started.
“Neddy,” Ruby whispered loudly. Neddy looked up again. Ruby did a rubbing motion with her hands rapidly. Neddy bit his tongue, shaking his head. He already tried that. Ruby gritted her teeth, forming a thin cylinder with her hands and then rubbing it again. Neddy snapped his fingers, giving her a thumbs-up. He tried doing the same motions, and a few sparks began flying after a few moments.

Borealis was losing control. And he wasn’t sure he liked it.
Neddy was under his thumb just fine. He knew the boy wouldn’t talk back even if it meant his life. He was completely loyal. And he was fine with that. He was fine with that as long as it meant staying alive.
But Nova and Ruby? Neither of them were compliant. They were anything but that.
“I have nothing against Ruby,” Borealis thought. He looked over at Nova, still sleeping. The pathetic bird was off in la la land too. An idea came to him just then.
“You, however…”
Borealis smiled at the thought, walking over to Nova softly, his footsteps crunching against the grass. Ruby noticed what was going on, and a haunting thought crossed her mind.
“What does he think he’s doing—” Ruby’s thoughts were interrupted by a rustling that came from behind her. Ruby jerked her head back, reaching for her bow. As she stared deep into the forest, she could see large, bipedal birds with small wings watching from the tree branches…
“What the…” Ruby whispered, her heart pounding against her chest. “Archaeopteryx? No… Microraptors?”
“Are they friendly?”
~
“I’ll get a hold of the bird,” Borealis thought as he walked up to the sleeping Nova. He held his hands out, prepared to snatch it. “I’ll show you what’s necessary for a better world.”
A smile crept up on Borealis’ face. The dodo’s eyes fluttered open. Borealis’ eyes widened in panic.
“No, no! I have to—”
He lunged his hands forward toward the animal’s neck.
Like Miracle I had a all black owl named Steven. During the summer I played on a server, and since I was new, someone gave my precious boy to me. I went everywhere with him. I had better mounts that I could use but I just loved Steven too much. Sadly, I did everything on the server and I quit it. I recently had an itch for ark again so I decided to see if my owl was still there. To my distraught I looked in the tribe logs to see that my boy has been claimed. (If your out for a while your base decays and pets get ready to be claimed) I miss Steven a lot. He was the only reason I played on the server till I quit.🥲

Both Neddy and Ruby arrived back at the campsite to the sight of Aurora staring at the stars and Samuel dozing away. Samuel’s dodo bird had her head perched on Samuel’s leg.
“Aurora,” Ruby called out softly. Aurora looked back at Ruby blankly. Neddy felt a chill go down his back, out of everything here on this island, Aurora scared him the most. Smarter, stronger, and better in every way, Aurora had the capability to turn her back on them all if she wanted to.
“I remember her in her freshman and sophomore years. So kind and generous. But now she’s… Different,” Neddy thought deep in his head as they approached Aurora, “I guess that’s what happens when the person closest to you is taken away from your life.”
“You have the materials, both of you?” Aurora asked with a raised eyebrow and a snidely look. Ruby reached into her pouch, but as she felt around her eyes widened. She gasped.
“OMG, I totally forgot about that! I was-”
“What do you mean you forgot?!” Aurora sneered, getting up from the ground and walking up to Ruby, “Do you not know how to follow directions? They were plain and simple. Collect firewood so we can start a fire to keep warm. Are you stupid?”
“She’s not stupid!” Neddy shouted, putting his arm out in front of Ruby. Aurora glanced at Neddy, and then back at Ruby with contempt. She took a step back. Neddy reached into his own pouch that Ruby had made for him and took out a few small logs of wood, and many handfuls of thatch.
“It’s fine anyway. I got the materials,” Neddy noted. Aurora grumbled and snatched the wood out of Neddy’s hand. She gave it to Ruby, who grabbed it complacently.
“You know what to do Ruby. Start the fire, and I expect you do what you’re told this time,” Aurora said. Ruby nodded sadly and knelt down to the ground, taking the firewood sticks and placing them in a certain order. Neddy seemed to be glaring at Aurora.
“What the heck’s your problem man? Can you not afford to be nice or something? Are you one of those emo girls or whatever they’re called-”
“I am NOT an emo!” Aurora screamed, “You wanna be nice and soft? Be my guest! We won’t survive if we act that way! You think I became valedictorian from being nice?!”
Neddy felt something stir within his mind. He clenched his fists- He almost knocked her out right then and there, but he stopped himself. If he did that, he wouldn’t know what would happen next.
“Just- Just I don’t know!” Neddy suggested, “There’s dinosaurs. Scary ones. I don’t want to draw any attention. Let’s stop screaming.”
Aurora rolled her eyes and turned around. A soft grumble came not from her mouth but from her stomach. She reached into her pouch and rummaged around for a bit, then swore to herself.
“Ran out of berries,” Aurora whispered to herself. Aurora’s eyes glanced at Samuel's dodo bird, and a strike of hunger hit Aurora in the stomach again. Neddy noticed what was going on, and a haunting thought crossed his mind.
“Oh no… If Aurora kills it, Samuel’s gonna freak out!” Neddy thought. He was about to run up to Aurora to stop her, to tell her that they already had meat, but he heard rustling coming from behind him. Neddy turned around slowly, his breath getting raggedy. And as he stared deep into the forest, he could see blazing orange eyes manifest within the darkness.
“What… Is… That?” Neddy whispered, his heart pounding against his chest. He felt his knees buckle. He wanted to run, but he didn’t want to abandon his allies. He couldn’t move at all.
“Finally. An excuse to kill this pest,” Aurora thought as she walked up to sleeping Samuel. She reached for her back and pulled out her spear, the stone tip gleaming under the moonlight. She twirled it around in her left hand, clutching it around tightly. Red filled her vision as the hunger continued to gnaw at her stomach.
“Yes, kill that damn bird. Get some meat, eat something for once. I’ve only eaten berries since I’ve been here, smoothies and salads back home.”
A smile crept up on Aurora’s face, and as she reached the two, she prepared to plunge her weapon into the defenseless dodo. She let out a soft cackle.
“TAKE THIS!” Aurora screamed as she slammed her spear into the dodo.
