Okay, answer to the question:
Apollo was separated from his mother and pack at about 3 months old.
After a week, he was starving, and needed help.
All of a sudden, a healer popped up behind him.
The healer was powerful and graceful, going by the name Yarei.
Apollo growled at the healer, but the healer kneeled, and did a reading.
She sensed good in Apollo, and both of them floated in the air.
Yarei transferred 25% of her power to Apollo, then they dropped back to the ground.
Apollo was slightly larger, and he was now about the size of a big gray wolf.
Yarei walked away with a grin, knowing the powers would be used for good.
Apollo later found food, and sustained himself for about 2 weeks until his food supply was cut short.
A day later, he found Axel, and we are where we are now.
