Play'n in da riva'

[☼Åžrå☼]

Darkness was having a rough day, nothing was going right for her. She couldn't seem to be able to catch anything, she had tripped on a root when she was running through the woods... She sighed. "My day can't get any worse then this, right?" She sighed. As her head broke through the branches surrounding the creek, a twig hit her in the nose, stinging a bit. "I guess I was wrong." She sighed again. Darkness took a tentative step forward, trying to keep from hurting herself again. Of course, she slid on the muddy bank, right into the ice cold river. Rage welled up in her. Her hackles stood on end as she slapped the water hard with her paw. Of course, the water splashed up into her face, drenching her. She growled angrily and attaked the water, only making herself more wet and angry. Darkness rushed out of the water and attacked the nearest tree. This only made her gums bleed, but it did relieve enough anger to make her realize she had just attacked a freakin tree. She growled, quietly this time, ashamed at herself. She lifted her maw to the sky, and howled. This releaved the rest of her pent up stress, and she relaxed a bit. She turned back to the river and let the water flush the blood from her jaws. Darkness liked blood, but only blood from other creatures.

[||Silver||]

||Silver had been near the river, in a low tree that she managed to get into. She watched at the other femme attacked the river, soaking herself, then going after a poor helpless little tree. As the dog howled, she kackled. "What a dog." she stated jumping from the tree that was a good 3 feet up. She landed without the normal thud and gracefully walked to the rivers edge. Her mutli-colored coat glistening in the sunlight. She stared straight at the other dog. Husky. It seemed that she wasnt the normal husky you would see walking around, her coat was really dark red. Silver had not seen a dog like this is a long long time. She shook out her coat and jumped on a large rock in the middle of the river, not one paw, or hair touching the water below. She whisked her tail before it tapped the water. She laid down on the large rock, in a sun bathing look. She closed her stunning glowing silverfish blue eyes. As she laid there, she hummed a little tone in her head. After what was a little while she looked at the other and asked "Who are you?"||

[☼Åžrå☼]

Darkness whirled around to face the fae. She had never seen a dog like this before, but, thanks to some experiment from the scientists, she knew it was an Austrailian Shepherd. "Yeah, hi." Darkness looked down, slightly ashamed that the other dog had seen her outburst. Lucky for this dog her anger was gone, or she probably would have attacked on sight. Darkness whirled her paw around in the water a bit, creating a miniature whirlpool. She didn't want to meet the other dog's eyes. Blood began to drip from her mouth, flow down her throat. Her gums hadn't stopped bleeding yet. Darkness slowly lowered her maw down to the river, opening it to let the blood escape her now sore jaws. As soon as the bloody taste was gone, signalling the bleeding had stopped, she raised her head, and her eyes, to the fae. She slowly took in the dog's muli colored coat. The black, orange, and greyish\silver astounded her. When she looked at the dogs eyes, she was captivated, she had never seen eyes of that color before. The ones she had seen had been all brown or gold. Never blue. Darkness lowered her gaze again."What is your name?" she asked quietly.

[||Silver||]

||Silver looked at her and heaved a little sigh. “Silver…Silver Lightning. And who might you be?” she shivered as some mist patted down her fur. She closed her orbs, as she shivered, reopening them seconds later. She looked at the husky, and noticed that she was captivated. She held back a laugh. How could she tell these things? It was like reading an open book of a bright sunny day, she thought to herself. She pawed her nose, a bug landed on it a second before and bite it. She stood, then jumped gracefully to the side the other was on and gave a slight bow of her head.||

[☼Åžrå☼]

Darkness half closed her eyes, "I am... Darkness." She lowered her head. "I like your name." she whispered quietly. She looked away, towards the woods. Her brown eyes seemed to glow golden as she peered into the darkened shadows of the forest. Every small movement sent her eyes traveling in that direction, causing her eyes to flicker back and forth. Smells wafted to her nose on the breeze, making it twitch, letting the scents flow over the different sensory cells, telling her brain what the different smells are. She raised her head again, letting her eyes open completely again. Darkness turned her head toward the fae, letting her scent float into her nostrils. ‘Young, good health.’ She let her eyes wander across the dog's body, 'very muscular.' If the dogs decided to fight it would be quite an even match. Darkness lowered her head to the water, lapped a few toungfulls, dipped her head into the water, and lifted her head up quickly, flinging water droplets onto Silver's pelt. Darkness smiled jokinly, a playful glint in her brown eyes, as she jumped strait into the air, landed with a splash facing away from the other fae, and took off running through the river. She stopped about a hundred yards away and looked back, barking for Silver to follow.

[||Silver||]

|As Silver's pelt got wet, she shuddered. "You...got...me..wet!" she barked, slightly angery. It took her a while to dry most of the time...and this day she didnt want to smell like wet dog. She grumbled as she ran into the river crossing it seconds after darkness. She had already noticed that she was faster then the young dog. As she jumped out, she jumped high, landing right infornt of the dog named Darkness.||

[☼Åžrå☼]

Darkness yelped when Silver landed infront of her, surprised that she had caught up so fast. Her black fur fluffed forward as she stopped suddenly. Water flew forward and she felt mud squish between her paws as they dragged on the bottom of the stream as she attempted to stop. She cocked her head, confused, she had been heading to the pond, "Where do you want to go?" She looked down at the water swirling beneath her paws, it was ful of silt that she had stirred up with her paw steps. As she looked closer, she spotted small fish swiming frantically away from her body, afraid she would eat them. Darkness looked back up at the fae. She slightly opened her jaws, panting a little from the short burst of adrenilin. She wasn't tired, but the adrenilin burst had sapped some of her strength. Her right ear was drooping slightly, weighted down by the wetness of the water. Darkness shook her head as she felt water beginning to slowly drip into her ear. It tickled, and was quite annoying. She looked back up at the fae, her eyes gleaming with contained energy, she wanted to run, but this fae was holding her back. "Well?"

[||Silver||]

||Silver looked at Darkness and shrugged her slim shoulderblades. "As long as I can run...I'm good." she answered the question, then looked at her agian. She yawned slightly. Darkness had something strange about her...and Silver didnt like it. "May I ask a private question?" and before she could answer yes or no Silver just asked. "Youre stange I can tell...what can you...do?" she asked her tone lowering to a whisper and she looked around her orbs bright once more.||

[☼Åžrå☼]

Darkness looked at the other dogs, shocked that she had noticed. "How did you... never mind, I might not want to know." She looked down at the water, slightly ashamed to tell the truth. She didn't like to have other dogs think she was different, she wanted to be the same as everyone else, have a family, a mate, raise pups... She was having a wishful thinking moment again. Darkness shook her head, disgusted with herself. "I can... tell a dog's breed just by looking at them. It's nothing much, actually quite helpful when meeting new dogs, you know. Most dogs, I mean most not all, will behave the way most of their breed act. Most pitbulls have bad tempers, chihuauas are quite talkative, and most breeds of sheepdog like to herd things." She sighed, she didn't like to be different, strange, weird.

[||Silver||]

||Silver chuckled at the sheepdog like to herd things. She turned her tail and flickered it once more. "Being different is what makes others love you my dear." she brushed agianst Darkness. "I would love to tell you how much its made me happy. I can look at any dog...any and know how they feel. Its not like I can control it...I just can. I know you feel ashamed for example. Dont be...take power in it." she explained. She licked darkness once and smiled. "Alright?"||

[☼Åžrå☼]

Darkness had slightly leaned away from Silver, she wasn't used to dogs being that close to her. She usually attacked them before they got that close. Darkness' eyes widened when Silver told her about her own 'power.' "You mean that I'm not the only one that has... unusual abilities?" she asked slowly. She felt a little weird, standing before a dog that can tell her feelings. She felt slightly jelous, for Silver's ability could be pretty helpful, knowing whether a dog was about to attack you, rape you, or if a male dog was interested in you. She sighed, "Well, do you want to go to the pond, Silver?"

[||Silver||]

||Silver nodded. "Of course...and dont be jealous...I cant tell certain things. For example...I dont use it...if I want to I do...if I dont...I block it." she smiled then started to pad off in the general direction of the pond. Her tail flickered carelessly behind her as she padded slowly. She sighed deeply, then turned her axel and called back to Darkness. "Come on...I dont wanna be alone...do you?" she asked pausing for a second. Her steps lost beat and she sighed.||

[☼Åžrå☼]

Darkness rushed forward to Silver. She blushed inside, feeling embarresed that Silver had senced her jealousy. "No, I don't want to be alone, not anymore. She quickened her step, trying to match those of Silver. "I... have... how long have you been alone. Or are you alone?" Darkness cast a shy look towards Silver. "You don't have to answer that if you don't want to." Darkness felt her paw slip on a rock about a second before she plunged maw first into the stream. She came up caughing, spitting up water. Darkness turned away from Silver and shook herself, trying not to get the fae wet.
