Foster

Foster padded along the railing of an empty corral, his fur shifting as a slight breeze came along. It was later in the afternoon, and he had his back to the just barely setting sun. Its light made his fur shine. His blue eyes were to the floor as was his nose. He stopped and sniffed at a blooming weed and sneezed when a fuzzy bunch of seeds tickled his nose.

Robin Hood

"bless you" came a voice from behind him. Robin Hood was standing behind him, his pack snuggly on his back. He bowed to the dog, showing he meant no harm.

Foster

Foster looked up, startled. He blinked a few times, slowly coming out of his stupor. He then tilted his head to the side, seeing the pack on the canine's back. "What's that?" He asked.

Robin Hood

"my burden not yours, my problems not yours, my life not yours" was his reply, he stood tall, he would eventually tell the dog what it was but first they must both trust each other enough.

Foster

Foster stood silent for a moment, then he chuckled a bit. "That is a fine answer," he spoke strongly. "I am Foster, you wouldn't mind telling me your name atleast?"

Robin Hood

"Robin Hood" he said, smiling a bit.

Foster

"Robin Hood..." He thought back to the time when the little boy Jimmy had dressed up like his favorite character. He had gone around yelling a bunch of stuff, and he thought he remembered the same name in the little kids shoutings. He shook it off. "Well, I was just looking around for some food, I've been a stray now for... about seven days." He had been taken from the house which he had called home by a bunch of strange men. He was taken to a warehouse, but he had escaped. He had traveled almost constantly since then, trying to find his way back. But so far he had no clue where he was.

Robin Hood

"well I guess this is your lucky day" Robin Hood smiled warmly "rabit or possum"?" he asked laughing a bit as turned to his pack.

Foster

Foster tilted his head to the side again, the curious look unmasked on his face. "Rabbit? Possum? I've never had either of those. Which one tastes better?"

Robin Hood

"it depends" he muttered through a mouthfull of fur. He turned around with two god-sized animals in his mouth. He spit the out in front of Foster "go ahead try one, you'll be suprised" he said with a small smile, as turned back around to close his pack back up again.

Foster

The shepherd sniffed the rabbit tentitavly and then took a mouthfull of the meat. His eyes widened with shock as the delicous taste washed into his hungry mouth. He quickly took another bite, his aching stomach urging him on. "This is really good!"

Robin Hood

"told you" Robin Hood said happily. "eat up, there is plenty more" he said sitting down and resting his head on his paws.

Foster

The hungry dog quickly gobbled up the rest of the meat. He then sat down, his tongue licking the blood from his muzzle. He gave a grin at Robin Hood. "Thank you, you are a good... wolf?" He had never seen one before, therefore he wasn't quiet sure if the canine before him was indeed a wolf.

Robin Hood

Robin Hood laughed a soothing laugh and nodded his head "yes I am a wolf. And thank you. Would you like any more?" he asked.

Foster

"No, thank you though." He stood, shaking his light fur gently. His brown eyes were happy and his stomach was pleasantly full; a feeling that he hadn't felt for a while. He looked once again at the pack. "Do you belong to a human? That pack you where could only have been made by one of them."

Robin Hood

"I live with a human, yes, but I consider him one of my kind, he is nothing like anyhuman you would aver meet" Robin Hood replied

Foster

The dog smiled. "I miss my people, there was a little boy, Jimmy. He was kind and fun to play with." A sad look came over his face.

Robin Hood

"what happened?" he asked taking a step closer to Foster then sitting down.

Foster

"Well," he began in a tired voice, a voice that was also filled with a sense of longing. "I was resting out in the yard when I heard a crash from inside the house. My people were away, eating I believe, so I felt a sense of duty to go and investigate. When I got inside, there were three strange men wearing masks. A fourth man took me by surprise, and I must have lost consciousness. When I awoke, I was in a pen in a wearhouse. It was easy to escape, since the fence was low enough for me to hope over, and I've been trying to find my way home. But I have no idea where I am, or if I'll ever see my family again. I miss them terribly." His head was lowered and a soft whimper escaped from him.

Robin Hood

"I could help you" Robin Hood offered "I know these lands and all other lands like the back of my paw" he was not exaggerating he really did, but he refused to let enyone know how it could be.

Foster

A look of hope sprung into his eyes, but it was for a fleeting moment. "But I do not know the name of the city from which I came..."

Robin Hood

"Do you have an atrifact of some sort from your home" Robin Hood asked looking deeply at the other.

Foster

He shook his head solemnly. "No, I didn't have a chance. And I lost my collar along the way..."

Robin Hood

"hmm" Robin Hood thought a moment....could it be...nah it couldn't"

Foster

The shepherd sighed. "Well, I'm sure that they will get along without me. They were an intelligent little bunch of creatures." He shook he head once more before brightening a bit. "Well, what's done is done."

Much (Name Change)

Much stared at him a moment, suprused by the sudden change of heart..."would you liek to came and live with me?" he asked.

Foster

The dog perked his ears up at the question. "Wouldn't I be a bother to you, though?"

Much

Much laughed "of course not, all wolves are welcomed. You do not mind living with humans as well do you?" he asked "my human is not quite human though, you will see when you meet him"

Foster

Foster stood, his little tail wagging happily. "Of course I don't mind humans. They're right fine creatures. Well, usually."
