Torell

Torell soared trough the doorway and into the barn. He looked back to make sure Daggar was following. "See the girl over there? That's Nicole. She'll see that you get tended to. The males aren't home right now, but they'll be back soon." He stayed to make sure everything went well.

Daggar

Daggar trotted into the barn, her eyes darting this way and that. She walked over to Torrel and sat next to him. Her tags clanked loudly in the barn.

Nicole || Torell

Nicole was well aware of the others' presence. She approached the bird and dog cautiously, but happily. She remained in a submissive posture. "Hello, little ones." She said softly. She reached a hand out to see if Daggar would come.

Torell looked at Nicole. He had come to know this girl very well. "Ah, yes. She'll give you a dog treat if you sniff her hand. I don't know why, though. She always does it to her own dog." He stated.

Daggar

Daggar stared at Torrel, then walked over to the human, giving her a gentle nugde on the hand with her nose, her tags still making much more sound then usual.

Nicole || Fox

Nicole smiled and pulled a dog treat out of her pocket. She dropped it on the ground in front of Daggar and waited.

The Corgi, Fox, ran into the barn. "Shadin? Shadin! There are some..." He began, but paused when he saw Daggar. He could always use a new friend. "Oh! Are you Nicole's new dog? I'm Fox!"

Daggar

Daggar turned her head adruptly, "well I see word gets around here fast. Yes I do belive I am, my name is Daggar, nice to meet you Fox" she said bowing until her tags brushed the ground.

Nicole/Others

Nicole reached out to stroke Daggar's back.

Fox pranced around. "We can go outside if we want to. There's a horse and some antelope things out there." He pointed to the opened door on the other side of the stable, which led to the place Nicole called the Wilderness.

Torell looked around. "I could learn to like this place." He said.

Daggar

Daggar shyed away from the human's hand at first, who could blame her though, she hadn;t eaten in, forever, she was abused in her old home....shall I go on? She turned to Torell "thank you very much for brining me here" Then she turned back to Nicole, now enjoying the long forgotten touch of human hands

Nicole/Jake

Torell nodded. "You're welcome." He said.

Nicole smiled and spoke softly to the dog. "You're going to love it here." She said.

Suddenly, Jake, Nicole's older brother, walked through through the barn door. He looked at all the animals and then at Nicole. "What have you done now, Nikki?" He asked. Nicole looked at him and smirked. "I have a dog for you." She replied. Jake watched Daggar. "I see you also have a wold bird for me. What next? A whale?" Jake sighed. Nicole laughed. "I could get you a whale if you want one." She said sarcastically.

Jake sighed again. "Fine. As long as the dog's not underfoot, I'm fine. But don't go getting bears or unicorns next." He said, trying not to laugh at his sister's love for animals.

Nicole looked down at Daggar. "Awww...How could you not love such a pretty little dog? She's adorable!" She said happily. Jake crouched down and held his hand out to the dog.

Daggar

Daggar got the feeling this was the soldier Torrel had told her about and she ran over to him, giving him a huge lick on his face, her tags gleaming in a ray of light, the words were on them were clear,, they were dog tags from the army.

Nicole/Jake/Fox/Torell

Torell watched Daggar curiously. "That is Nicole's brother, I believe." He informed.

Nicole sighed. "Looks like the dog likes you." She said happily. Jake continued to stroke Daggar gently. "Sure. How's the deranged Army dude's horse?" He asked in a joking manner.

Nicole sneered at her brother's comment. "The horse is great. Now, since you don't seem to care to inform me, how is the soldier himself?" She asked. Jake stood up. "Eli is good. He's probably sitting in your chair and watching TV." He teased.

Fox wagged his tail and watched Daggar. "His name is Jake. Nicole's funner. She's the one who gives us treats." He barked.

Daggar

Daggar's ears went back, maybe this wasn't the soldier after all.. She looked to Torrel "which one is the soldier?" she asked looking a bit embarrased, her army tags clanking and swinging around as she moved her thick neck.

Torell

Torell flapped his wings, then folded them neatly. "He's not out here, that's for sure. He must be inside their living quarters. You have to go with them the next time they go in." He said.

Daggar

Daggar flattened her ears slightly..."oh" she mimbled. She then bounded to the door, her tags flapping and clanking in all directions. "lets go lets go!!!" she barked, her tail wagging vigerously.

Nicole/Jake

Nicole smiled and followed the dog. "She's not so bad, once you get used to her energetic nature." She said. Jake sighed. "Energetic nature? Is that what you kids are calling hyperactivity these days?" He said sarcastically. Nicole narrowed her eyes, but still bore a friendly smile. "Aha...real funny Jake. You should be a comedian." Nicole replied, just as sarcastic as her brother. "I'm bringing the dog inside."

Jake sighed again. "Don't let him in my room, obnoxious little girl." He said, then looked at Fox. "You started it."

Torell watched the argument go on, but didn't think much of it.

Fox followed Nicole gleefully.
