A constant memory lingered in Heidi's mind, whether she liked it or not. It was cold, heartless, and unforgiving.
It wasn't the newest cashmere bag, or chanel perfume.
Something that made her cringe at the thought of blood, a time where a nurserey became a grave.
The thought would cloud her mind day and night, though she's had long since experienced it.
Seal Clubbing.
She was only a mere 3 days old, only a pup. But it was burnt into her conciousness.

I gave a small squeak as I rolled my plump body over in the soft snow. I was lying on a small ice drift, bathing in the overcast sun. It warmed my fur, and I closed my eyes contentedly. Life was delightful to my fresh young mind, and a happy-go-lucky smile was plastered on my face as if heaven collided with earth. Nothing could go wrong, right? I remembered the beauttiful face of my mother. How she would cradle me in her flippers, soft and warm. But she was gone now. Where did she go? Where did she go? My tummy was making an odd sound, like a hunting orca, and I craved nourishment. I was still sleepy as she slipped her sleek slender body into the sea. I knew she was looking for food."Ugnn..."I mumbled, waddling towards the edge. It was my first time being close to the water, and I gave a satesfied bark after seeing my reflection. I had fluffy white fur, as if was kissed by snowflakes, and my large round eyes were curious but otherwise cheerful. It was the truth. I was gorgous, and the perfectest of all the other seal pups. I saw them floating by, looking at my beatifulness, green with envy. I knew they were just ordinary. But I was extraordinary.
