Thea hacked up some blood, and spat it on the colorful leaves at her feet. The colder weather had given her a sore throat, and she had been coughing pretty much nonstop since that morning. Her sharp ears picked up the sound of quarreling, and she trotted off towards the sound of voices. Her small, masculine form glided over the leaves, until the forms of 3 dogs came into view. She peered through a brightly colored bush, un-noticed. Until she felt a tickle in her throat. She wrinkled her nose to try and keep it in, unsuccessfully. She coughed loudly, spraying the ground with more blood and who-knows-what. "crap..." she muttered, as she licked her lips.

Chizu heard the echoing cough from another dog and lost her train of thought and looked over towards the dog coughing up the blood. She lifted her head up a bit and spoke a bit to her, not alarming, more or so in a caring way, "Hey. Are you okay there?" she didn't want the dog to be something contagious over to her then she'd be the one coughing blood. Chizu has seen this before in her life, "She needs to eat oak leaves soaked in honey or just some water..." she thought. Upon hearing the little pups reason she shifted her head towards her, "Territory? How can a young pup like you even be able to think to claim some land? It's adorable on how you're trying to be older than what you are." she said cocking a smile. It was very amusing for a puppy to think that she has territory. Of course it couldn't be her's all by herself. Maybe her parents' land or she was being naive. [/blockquote]

"Are you okay?", came a voice. Thea turned her head towards the husky on the other side of the bush. "Yeah, I'm fine." She said, putting on a smile. "Just a cold." She cleared her throat, and after listening to what the white husky had to say to the puppy, put on an even bigger smile. "Ha. That's cute." she mused.

Chopper was listening in to the conversation between the four dogs from a distance, silently crying, his ears flat against his head as his memory filled with images of one year prior: when he was still so innocent and carefree. When he still had parents. He dared go no further towards the group in fear of adding to his violent list of repeat performances. Why...? Why does it keep happening?! I wish it would stop... I just want to be normal...! I just want to be normal... He thought, finally breaking down into a stream of tears, his whole body shuddering. Chopper had to bite down onto his leg to stop from making any noise, a steady stream of tears matting the fur under his eyes from both emotional pain and his teeth piercing into his skin.

"Hey! I am not cute!" Knot yelled, 'I am a vicious kookier hound!" She growled, which come out like a purr. "I am a feared creature by all." Ribbit.
"WAH!" Knot jumped back at the frog, tripped, and landed on her back. "Ugh..."

Kyzukki giggled softly at Knot, leaned over and sniffed the frog. "These things taste bad," she told the other dogs idly. Then she pursed her lips, walked over to a tree and started diging at the base. "I smell an herb in here somewhere..." She frowned slightly. "I think there's a rabbit den or something." The frog ribbited behind her and she turned, blinking at it.

"H-Hey!" Knot ran over, "that's my tree!" She looked at the frog and whined, backing off. "I don't know about herbs, but stop messing with it!"

Maybe... maybe they won't recognize me? There are a lot of them there though. If they knew me and decided to gang up on me that would be bad... Chopper thought to himself while drying his eyes. He was oblivious to the fact that he was leaning precariously toward a bush. An ear brushed through the leaves and he yipped in surprise, recoiling and falling onto his rump.
"Ow...!" Chopper grunted. He blinked a few times until the realization hit him: he had made himself known. The small Pitbull's eyes went wide, and he quickly darted behind a tree. Chopper tried to calm his heart down to a less painful pulse before fully announcing his presence. "H-hello... Sorry if I'm disr-rupting s-something. J-just passing by is all." Chopper choked out past the dry lump of fear in his throat.

Knot turned, seeing the new dog. "Is every dog in the mountais coming to my territory today?" She went over to a tree and sat down with an expaserted sigh. She really didn't need to fight this anymore. The new dog looked scary though.

Thea turned at the new voice. She brushed past Knot, and peered into the bush the voice was coming from. She could smell the dried tears on the small pit bulls face. "You look like you've been through hell." she murmured. "You can get out of that bush now, we don't bite... too hard." A sly smile came across her face as she said this.

Knot looked and tilted her head to the side. "I thought hell was a place all bad dogs went if they ate human food...." She padded over, and sniffed. She could smell injury. It didn;t smell too pleasant either. But how did such a tough looking dog get so hurt?

Kyzukki sat, cocking her head to the side.
"Does it seem odd to you that I've been wandering around here for nearly two weeks without seeing another dog, but suddenly this many dogs show up in one area?" She asked no one in particular. The frog Ribbited again, before jumping over to land on her tail. "IT ATTACKS!" The puppy cried, before laughing and sticking her nose in the hole she'd been digging, pulling out a purple-green root, wrinkling her nose at the bitter taste and strong minty scent. "Fnd 'he 'rb!" She cried, mouth muffled. The frog ribbited again and she stared at it, confused. "Fshh 'oo," she told it, nudging it with her nose.

((YAY! Big post! ^_^))
Chopper jumped slightly, wincing both at the pain in his rump and at being talked to, for once, without the other sporting an air of wanting to take him out. He wasn't one to just blindly trust and let down his guard, but gave a small, nervous grin back to Thea. Chopper took one last breath to calm his nerves a bit before replying.
"O-oh... okay then..." Chopper distanced himself from the tree a bit, not finding much more use for it as cover since he volunteered his existence in the area. The small Pit Bull crept into the opening, tail low and ears mostly flattened, and glanced at each dog there.
There was the young female Kookier Hound. A rather cute, youthful pup he thought. This is her territory? Hehe... That's pretty adorable! I'll just play along. Chopper's muzzle turned up a little more at the thought as he turned his glance toward the next one.
The next was the female Kai that gave him one of the warmest welcomes he'd had in a long time. She probably wouldn't be so nice if she knew... the Pit thought to himself, another pained wince flickering across his muzzle that disappeared almost faster than it appeared. His gaze crossed over to another dog.
This one looked to have some weird thing in its mouth and Chopper's face turned into one of confusion. An... Akita? She looks different than one though... I can't place it... He looked over her some more as he tried to figure out what struck him as odd, but gave up and moved on before he was noticed staring on like a fool.
His eyes caught on the Husky like a collar grasped by a human. Her white coat was a pretty dead give-away, but that wasn't what caught his attention. It was the sun's rays on her coat, emitting a very nice white glow in the soon-to-be-not-so-contrast with the rust colored environment. It certainly wasn't very hard on the eyes, and neither was she, a small blush creeping its way across his muzzle. No! Distance myself! Mental block... please... block it out... I can't attach... A tear rolled down his cheek as Chopper quickly shut his eyes, opening them again moments later as his emotional barriers came up.
"H-hello..." the Pit Bull muttered quietly, not making eye contact with anyone as he wiped the tear away.

Thea also wondered what had brought all these dogs to this place at the same time. This was her first time seeing another dog for several days, and she was sure she wasn't the only one. "Hey." she grunted, in response to Chopper. "So, what brings everybody he--" she was cut off by another tickle in her throat, and paused to cough. "brings everybody here?" she finishes.

Knot sat down and scratched behind one of her floppy ears. "I was thinking the same thing, since everytime I've said it was my territory, a new dog seems to show up." She closed one eye and thought of her master back home. Was he looking for her? Or was she too bad to take care of anymore? Were her siblings okay? Was her family okay? Ears drooping, she looked at the ground.
Then, she thought of a faint creaking noise. Sniffing, she felt her tail wag and could catch the familiar scent of hunters and humans in the woods. She quickly calmed herself though, and tried to push the thoughs out of her head. These were different times now, different circumstances.
