Taking a drink

[Songa/Viper]

The female walked down the path slowly. She looked around at all the people walking. Humans scared her so she moved off the path and went over to the lake. She bent her head down and began to drink the water from the lake. It was cold but felt good because of the heat It was a hot spring day and she had been walking across the city the whole time. Now she was tired. She trotted over to a bench and lay down under it, glad to have some shade.

[Desiree]

Desiree trotted over to the bitch, hello, I'm Desiree; what's your name she asked in a cheerful voice. Her tail was wagging. She sat down and licked her chest once and looked at the other bitch. She looked to the water and admired its beauty for a minute then looked to the sky and said to the bitch nice day aint it she looked around at the people walking around and shivered i dont like people do you?

[Songa/Viper]

Hi Desiree I'm Songa the female said from under the bench. She licked her paws and looked back up again. Yes it's a beautiful day and I don't like people either. They had brought her nothing but pain and now wanted to stay away from them. She looked up to Desiree. What are you doing out here anyway?

[Desiree]

Just walking around, I guess she scratched her ear. I live around here, you? She sighed. She looked at the people; We can go to my packs land...If you wish, it's not very far She smiled and stood up. Hey Songa, I gotta go, you can come if you want and with that she turned and trotted away. She came to the path where the humans walked and quickly past it, she was soon out of thought.

[Songa/Viper]

No I don't live here I just got here Songa's ears perked when Desiree mentioned a pack. I'd love to go to a pack land with you She stood up and shook out her coat. She followed desiree down the path. She smiled. She might have found herself a place to stay. Wait up Desiree.

[Desiree]

Desiree heard Songa's reply and stoped at the other side of the path. She pricked her ears and waited for her to catch up. She licked her jowls and looked as a person came up and pated her on the head. She stayed were she was, aslong as it wasn't the dog catcher and they didn't want to hurt her or take her away 'petting' and 'quick pat on the cute puppy dogs head' were ok then.

[Songa/Viper]

Songa caught up with Desiree. She stopped seeing the human. Humans were scary to Songa and she stayed back while they patted the other dog. She moved forward when the human walked away. I don't like humans at all.Father always said to keep away from them. Songa always listened to what her father said. He was always right.

[Desiree]

Desiree looked away, I...I never knew my father She looked up. Well, lets go... She stood up and got ready to take off again. She looked around to make sure there were no more humans near, there were none. She turned around and walked slowly through the spring green grass. She sighed and shook her head but she kept going.

[Songa/Viper]

Songa gasped when desiree spoke. Oh! I'm sorry. She quieted and followed her down the path. She didn't want to make things worse. She let her head hang low and sighed. She felt stupid for what she had said and she felt sorry for Desiree. But she changed the subject. So where exactly are we going?
