On the Hunt for a Monster Platoon

[Captain Stumpy]

Rumors followedGrey around like phantoms, messing with the ballance of things where-ever he entered.

The gray canine entered a low village in the alps, "A good place to find Strays and Pets alike" he said to himself watching a collared dog walk past him. "Hey You!" he barked following the pet. "Yeah" it answered disrespectfuly. "Hey do you know me?" Grey rawred stopping the dog in its tracks, the dog didn't answer. "I am General Grey looking for more members to fight for paradise!" Grey said filling the silence. "I don't need Paradise, and if Ohu needed help, well they wouldn't need me" the young pet answered getting Grey's back up.

"I'm not talking about Ohu you fool, Tell any dog you meet that If they want to live in Paradise they have to go to the forest shrine at mid-night. If not then they will die like there human masters!" Grey hissed at the stranger. The Stranger gave a feable nod and ran off.

Gray sighed, "Hope he gets the word out" Grey said to himself as he walked off to the shrine.


The Strange dog did as it was told, He quickly visited Pets and Strays alike and told them what Grey had told him. It wasn't long before he was on the doorstep of Rum. Rum listened to what the Collared dog had to say though the fence of his masters garden. He looked up at the sky and walked back to his kennel. 'well no harm in listening to what the dog has to say' he though to himself as he watched the strange dog run on by.



Afue Hours Later


In the light of the moon Grey's Stranger had collected a good amount of Dogs, with more joining as he spoke. He stood on the shrine steps prepareing to speek. "My fellow canines, It has been far too long we have suffered for man. There greed keeps us in squalid conditions, there selfishness makes us fight between ourselves And there ignorance lives hundreds of us on the streets to fend for ourselves when we treat them like our alpha's

Well No more! I've come to you from Reodor Valley, where My Alpha's promise to create a Paradise streching from coast to coast. Where there are no humans, and there will be no humans!!"

"But Humans are everywhere, if we theaten them, they kill us" A young female in the crowd protested. "Ah but we have a weapon far greater then any human..." "Are you talking about those foul monsters trying to create utopia in there image?" a old male interupted. Grey's ears flattened and nose turned up. "Have you seen them yourself?" Grey asked not waiting for a answer. "Those sladourus comments come from pampered canines that stick there nose up at river water!

No just think canines this entire Island free from chains and pain. No more bags of stale food. or foraging in bins like crows. No, This is our time and I welcome you all to it, to Paradise, Canines had died searching for it and I give it to you." Grey said panting. He watched as more dogs came and sat infront of the steps of the shrine. "And if its not to your taist? well your welcome to go home again" He said standing infront of the crowd ready to answer any more questions.


Rum was sitting pretty close to the back of the crowd, is brindle coat setting him apart from most other strays. "Well I'm all for bettering the canine race" he said still not believeing a feet this big was possible, but he could always leave when it got to rough. He snurked and walked to the shrine and stood at the bottom of the steps faceing the rest of the croud. some other pets and strays followed him.

Tiger, who had been wandering the land of Japan in search of a pack for some time now, was highly interested in the meeting taking place around the Central Alps. Some random mutt had approached him and told him briefly of a "Dog Paradise", but one that was not located in Ohu. Strange, but intriguing, the young coydog had thought; but little did know that the situation at hand was shrouded by a dark cloud of what some might call evil.

"My fellow canines, It has been far too long we have suffered for man. There greed keeps us in squalid conditions, there selfishness makes us fight between ourselves And there ignorance lives hundreds of us on the streets to fend for ourselves when we treat them like our alpha's. Well No more! I've come to you from Reodor Valley, where My Alpha's promise to create a Paradise streching from coast to coast. Where there are no humans, and there will be no humans!!"

Immediately, Tiger was beyond committed to this cause. He despised, and feared humans above all other creatures on this planet. They were the ones to cause him so much suffering by torturing him and leaving a horrid scar on his face. They were the ones that got him kicked out of his home in Tokyo. And they were also the ones that were holding him back from being the canine he wanted to be. He wanted to be greater then Gin one day....

"But Humans are everywhere, if we theaten them, they kill us" A young female in the crowd protested. Tiger snorted in disdain. While he wished to not believe the female's words, he knew she was correct. Humans had access to all sorts of weapons that could easily take down one hundred dogs, let alone a small group of them.

"Ah but we have a weapon far greater then any human..." Grey announced. Tiger's expression lit up beneath his bandanna as his ears picked up on that little blurb. They already had something more powerful then a human on their side? Perfect!

"Are you talking about those foul monsters trying to create utopia in their image?" a old male interupted. Monsters? Tiger's head tilted in bewilderment. He'd heard nothing of monsters roaming Japan, at least, not recently. The only "monsters" he knew of were Hougen and Akakabuto from legendary stories. Regardless, Tiger decided that it didn't matter what his new allies looked like. He was monstrous in appearance too, at least, without his bandanna.

Grey's ears flattened and nose turned up. "Have you seen them yourself?" Grey asked not waiting for a answer. "Those sladourus comments come from pampered canines that stick there nose up at river water! No just think canines this entire Island free from chains and pain. No more bags of stale food. or foraging in bins like crows. No, This is our time and I welcome you all to it, to Paradise, Canines had died searching for it and I give it to you." Grey said panting. He watched as more dogs came and sat infront of the steps of the shrine. "And if its not to your taste? Well you're welcome to go home again."

Even better! Tiger thought with a smile on his maw. Surely then, these dogs can't say no!

But no one seemed to stir from their spots, a soft murmuring wafting through the crowed instead. Tiger let out a frustrated huff of air, berating the canines around him in his mind for being so foolish. He was about to get up to join Grey in the front when an odd colored dog offered his assistance. Good, then Tiger would not be the only one to join their side.

"Count me in!" Tiger yowled from the depths of the group. Dogs around him cleared the way as the coydog made his way to the steps. He nodded to Rum, and then to Grey, whom he noticed also had a scar on his face. Caused by humans too? Perhaps. And then an idea struck Tiger, an idea that would either chase the crowed away or make them more willing to join. Without waiting for permission to speak, White Tiger turned to the group and yowled, "Dogs of Central Alps and wherever the hell else you came from! Listen to me! Humans are the kings of hatred in this world! It is time they were given a taste of their own medicine!" Tiger put a paw up to his face and removed his bandanna, showing the grotesque scar where his right eye used to be. Horrified gasps erupted from the dogs below, but he bared his teeth against the feeling of grief in the pit of his stomach. "THIS is what humans do to us! They use us for entertainment, hurt us, kill us even!"

Murmurs exploded from the group, and several more dogs walked up to the shrine, looking at Tiger sympathetically. The coydog turned to Grey, let out a smile, and then took a seat next to Rum.

Hasaki & Hikigane

Light cracking sounds could be heard disturbing the silence of the night, as two canines ran, their path visible in the pale moonlight. No other sounds were coming from them, as the two assassins traveled in silence. They were fast, but not fast enough in their opinion. It was late, the midnight was nearing, and they had no intention on missing the meeting they had been told about. A foolish dog approached them earlier that day, informing them of someone who was recruiting canines. His life would have ended right there and then by the sharp fangs of blood thirsty Hasaki, had he not been lucky enough to mention this army's goal was to get rid of humans, before she had a chance to snap his neck. It caught the interest of the couple immediately, and the dog's life was spared so he would be able to tell them more. Hearing the meeting would be held somewhere in the Central Alps at midnight, they wasted no more time on the dog, heading there at full speed.

They had been running for quite a while now, but no signs of tiredness were showing on them. Hikigane's silver fur was wet from when he had to cross the river, and the red tiger stripes looked messy, but that was it, his breathing was even, and his movements smooth. His eyes were directed in front of him as he searched for any traces of the place they were looking for, only occasionally glancing at his mate, making sure Hasaki didn't have any problems keeping up. Her body was leaner then his, she looked weaker but faster then him, when in fact it was quite the opposite. While Gun was fairly strong and could run for a long time pretty fast, Hasaki had more strength and stamina then most, but her speed was not really to be admired. But even so, she was always beside him, not once falling behind. They worked well together.

It was half an hour later that they reached their destination, and the sight of many dogs greeted them as they approached. The meeting had already started, and it was clear they had missed the main speech, but a white dog with black stripes that went down his back, tail and legs obviously had something to say. He was standing a little further away, with a small group that had already decided to join. He spoke in a loud voice so everyone who still hesitated could hear him, and both Gun and Hasaki listened carefully. "Dogs of Central Alps and wherever the hell else you came from! Listen to me! Humans are the kings of hatred in this world! It is time they were given a taste of their own medicine!" As he said this, he removed a piece of cloth that covered his eyes, showing a big scar instead of his right eye. Gun watched with little to no sympathy, listening the gasps in the crowd that came from the dogs who, in his opinion, hadn't seen half of what he had. Or experienced, for that matter. Hasaki, on the other hand, growled at the thought of humans. No matter how much she loved pain and blood, if it was caused by those filthy creatures who had taken away her freedom for so long, and who wanted to kill her and her mate, then she would make sure it would stop. He spoke again: "THIS is what humans do to us! They use us for entertainment, hurt us, kill us even!"

"Ya speak right, kiddo, and for that, no humans should be left alive. I'll show them the pain they taught me to cause, show them how well they trained me!" Hasaki barked as she walked slowly toward the now bigger group, making sure Gun was following. He was. Hikigane kept silent, for he knew Has would say everything needed to be said. She would never ignore a chance to insult humans and wish them pain and suffering, but he himself was no better either, he just didn't feel like hurting his throat. At this thought, he was suddenly aware of the messy scar that stretched all around his neck, and the memory of that day still had it's place in his mind. He had bit off the hand of the solider who made that wound wielding a whip, and he was still a pup back then. He smiled at this, wishing silently he had done something worse. "They shall know the meaning of agony once I get them."

Roxas

Once again, the wolf hybrid was making his way through the snow. And once again, he wasn’t pleased about it. He couldn’t wait for the winter season to end and the green to start budding on the trees. The feel of rain instead of snow on his pelt and the soft, green grass under his paws instead of this horrid, white… crap. Wrinkling his nose in slight disgust, he growled. To his dismay, there was nothing he could do about it now, at least it was night time, his favorite time of the day, and it improved his mood a little more.

Where was he going in this hated weather?

He had heard rumors about a group of giant monsters were trying to create a new utopia, and they needed help. Utopia, eh? Sounds interesting enough. He had decided to at least check it out. If he didn’t like their morals, or their ideas, he could always leave. Roxas, after all, wasn’t one for authority when it was placed on him. He wouldn’t mind leading, he thought himself as a capable enough leader, but he didn’t like following. Never did, never would.

“My fellow canines…”

Ears perked at the voice, knowing the presentation was starting. Breaking into a run, he neared the large group of dogs, passing several others on his way. The voice grew louder with each step he took, sending adrenaline rushing through him. Slowing to a trot, he moved around the crowd and stopped suddenly, another dog behind him bumping into him. That dog… I know that dog… Quietly making his way through the crowd, he stopped next to Tiger and sat down, laying his ears back as he looked up at Grey. “So, you’ve heard the rumors as well?”

Zero

With grey ears laid back, Zero carefully made his way through the forest. It would seem strange to others, seeing a wolf there he supposed, figuring that no others would show. But, he had nowhere else to go, and it seemed like a dream to him. A utopia, for all dogs, ruled by monsters. In the back of his mind, he held some hope that perhaps these monsters would look over his cold demeanor and accept him, allowing him to join in the fight for this Utopia.

Approaching the crowd, Zero stopped, scanning the large group with mismatched eyes. It was as he thought, not a single wolf was here. Half-breeds made a good deal of the strays, but they hardly counted. Taking a deep breath, he strode forward, keeping his head high. Dogs watched him as he passed, quickly moving out of his way, house pets whimpered tucked their tails down. It was as it always was, but for once, Zero didn’t mind it. Perhaps this way, he could get a nice front row seat.

"Dogs of Central Alps and wherever the hell else you came from! Listen to me! Humans are the kings of hatred in this world! It is time they were given a taste of their own medicine!"

Ears perked in interest as he paused. “No humans?” He muttered, continuing on his way. A war against humans eh? The humans certainly seemed to have the upper hand, having weapons that could kill any of them in an instant. But, they had these ‘monsters’. Perhaps, they weren’t so bad off, and getting rid of a few humans could do their world good. They did nothing but harm the place, and run the wolves and other dog packs from their homes.

Quietly, Zero made his way past Roxas and Tiger, sitting down a few rows ahead of them to patiently wait for their objective to be met here in this gathering.

((Yey hey all thanks for joining ^^))

Grey stood watching the gathering dogs, he watched the ones walk below him licking his lips 'This is too easy' He thought to himself expecting a challange. He looked at the moon, it had already been 2 hours and he wasn't expecting meny more dogs to show up, in fact he could see some dogs turning tail and leave.


Though the shadows walked a collarless pet, Yori was without her collar or harness, the lanky golden wolfhound breezed between the the forests shadows and to the gathering dogs. She didn't go into the clearing but hung back in the bushes, she didn't expect to stay hidden, but she didn't want to make a scene either. Her blue eyes fixated on the Grey stranger standing on the steps and the motly gang of mongrels below him.

She shuddered at the thought of Japan being ruled by monsters, she would give her life to save a human as should any dog. She watched as 2 other pet dogs walked away mumbling to eachother. "Well at least he didn't talk everyone into going" She quickly thought of her blind master before sighing and shaking her head to leave.


Grey looked down on the dogs below him and a serious look, "I thank you, at least some dogs will be saved here tonight" He said with a black grin and a dark glint in his eye. He walked between the croud of assembled miss-fits and began to look though the alps. "Firstly my names General Grey, You'll be coming with me to Reodor Valley A nice sheltered spot in the middle of the Alps. The Alpha is Shade, i'll trust you'll respect him" He said turning to face the croud of dogs again. "Otherwise you'll meet Kerberos, and i can't say if it will be plesent" he continued to bark as he streched his front legs.
