Tikal

The femora padded in from croal Mountions as her marvouless storm cloud hued pelt glimmered in the sun. She sniffed around scenting many different scents and humans. Shed have to be careful.

She was different from any wolf in many different ways as could be seen and her abilitys such as running was slower but climbing was better for her. The chemicals the scientist had given her befor birth had made her different in many ways. The chemical the scientist had used made a dorment gene dominent and it was traced off the evolutionary chain befor foxes split from the wolf branch.Her spine was longer and more flexible and her legs were indeed shorter. Thus made her an excellent climber but that was a bit hindered when she became the normal sie of a average she-wolf. Her mug was more slender and pointed at the end. Her short legs made her slower but they were good because she was now very agile and could leap longer distances then any other wolf. She could also be very stealthy since her legs were shorter and made her closer to the ground. Her fur was the deep grey of storm clouds though she had marvolous blue eyes.

She walks down a trail searing as her blue orbs watch for danger or something good.

*Dog*

A very large, short-haired dog spotted Tikal. He was off-white with a brown head and speckles all over the rest of his body; some large breed of hunting dog. Spotting Tikal, he gave a hefty bark in her direction, tail waving slightly.

Tikal

She spots the dog and hears his bark and at first she steps back a bit for not to many canines were kind to her from the tme she was released but then she noticed his waving tail. She smiled slightley realizing he didnt seem mean so she wags her tail as well and barks a greeting. "Hello Im Tikal, who might you be?"

*Peppy*

"Nice to meet you, Tikal. I'm Peppy." He replied, waving his tail more. "Do you have a collar?" He tilted his large head to the side in a quizzical manner. His floppy brown ears hung down the side of his head. He had a bright red collar, but wasn't chained up to anything. His masters let him run loose because he never strayed too far from them.

Tikal

"Nice to meet you aswell." She yipped happily. She then thought. "A collar? Um nope." She said when sherealized he was talking about the bright red thing around his neck. "But I can see you have a nice bright red one if thats what a collar is." She said. She had never really seen a collar befor thats why she had been unsure though she had an idea of what one was. So do you live in the wild? Some mean humans had released me. I had come from a terrible place called the Neferious lab as some say." She seemed a bit nervous at her last sentance.

*Peppy*

"The wild?" he replied in a surprised tone, "Oh, no! I live with my alphas and travel in them with their moving shells." He explained, speaking of his masters' camper and car. "So some humans were mean to you? I never thought humans could be mean; they always seem so nice and do such interesting things." Peppy said; he was only two years old and had very caring and outgoing masters. And so far, he hadn't met any humans that were mean to him, so he only had good impressions of humans. "I've never heard of the place you speak of. I wonder why the humans would be mean! And why would they just release you into the wild?" He picked up on the nervousness of her last sentence, so he tried to sound a bit more serious.

Tikal

She listens to him intrested about the part with the shells and nice humans. "Wow I never thought humans could be nice!" She speaks amazed. She then thought of her mother. "My mothers still at the lab... and my brother... the humans sent him away." She said adley and her ears drooped a bit. She then looked to him and changed the subject. "I truthfully dont know why but do you think I could meet your masters. I wanna see how nice humans are." She requests in a calm tone.

Peppy

"Sure thing!" he replies enthusiastically, then pauses to regain a calmer manner. "Just follow me. I'll bet they'll love to meet you!" The large hound turned and trotted over to the door of his masters' silver camper and reared up. He gave a few bellowing barks and pawed urgently at the door.

"Peppy! Peppy, stop that! We're comming." came the sound of a woman's voice. Peppy backed off a bit and looked to Tikal with a smiling grin on his face, "That's Samantha; she's the alpha female." he pointed out, then turned his large brown eyes back to the door. It soon swung open and a women peeked her head out. "Now, Peppy; what's all this commotion for?"

Peppy pranced his large front paws and barked again. "Tikal, come over here!" he said excitedly. Samantha hadn't seen her yet.

Tikal

She pads over bedised Peppy wagging her tail happily. She sees the women and wasnt sure what to expect so she yips a greeting still wagging her tail.

Peppy & *Samantha*

The woman paused for a moment before a smiles creased her features. "Oh, Peppy, you've found a friend! Such a unique-looking dog, too!" she commented, stepping down from the camper and onto the ground. She walked right up to the two and reached her hand out to pat Tikal's head.

Peppy wiggled his tail and reached his large head over to lick his master's hand. "She likes you!" He then told Tikal.

Tikal

She swished her tail rapildly as Samantha pated her on the head. She licked Samanthas and in return. "Yeah and she seems nice!" She yips happily to Peppy. The she-wolf sat her blue eyes looking up at Samantha then she looked to Peppy.

Peppy & Samantha

"She gives me food when ever I want it, too." Peppy announced proudly, "Do you want to try some of it?"

Samantha was standing there still, admiring the newcomer. She thought this 'dog' seemed a bit short, but rather too long. It reminded her of an overgrown fox; a very overgrown fox.

Tikal

She nodded to Peppy. "Sure Id love to." She said happily wagging her tail. She then looked to Samantha for a moment then back to Peppy. She sighed once though as thoughts of her mother and brother suddenly popped in her head.
