As Finn finished walking on the bridge, a scent of human food hit his nostrils. He quickly started going towards the smell with hope that he could find some good food. He found himself further away from the Riverwalk, but still in the packs territory. Finn was in a medium sized alleyway. In the alleyway stood a dumpster. This could hold many food scraps. "Finally, something..." He said deeply, but with some hope in it. A strong scent caught his nose, he immediately went to it. Finn had found a small garbage bag with bones, raw meat and some human food scraps he didn't know off. "This is good enough" He murmured as he picked up the bag with his mouth. He began to head back to the Riverwalk, where most of his pack-mates would be.

Zievee awoke to the sunrays peeking shyly through the side of the dumpster, shining right down on her face. She groaned in slight annoyance, slowly lifting herself up in a standing position. Her tail wagged lowly and gently while her red-ish brown gaze scanned the alleyway. What could I catch here? she thought to herself. The only thing she’ll most likely find here are rats or birds that were picking at the food decaying in the dumpsters. Bringing her nose down to the ground, she looked for something to eat.

Kaiser awoke abruptly, a low whimper rumbled in his throat. He had a bad dream about getting attacked by an intruder. In his dream he was peacefully sitting in a pasture, relaxing under the sun when suddenly another dog jumped at him, but that’s when he had woken up. It took him a moment to realize where he was at before lifting himself up from the nest he had created with the grass in the corner of the barn. Kaiser sniffed around for anybody nearby to pester.

“In that case, I’ll do whatever I can to make sure that happens. Can’t have your future pups going hungry, can we?” Dogs like Kahei were the most important to Chazz. She was carrying the next generation. There would always be something special about that. “The sooner we leave this place, the better. Fresh meat will bring our pack a long way. I may speak to the Jarl about this later on. Maybe she’s already planning to make the move.” The city had done well for the pack. It was a safe place, abundant in shelter and the tall buildings provided shelter from most of nature’s elements. He would be sad to leave this place behind. But for the time being, food was a top priority. “You’re pretty skilled to have caught a duck back there. I tried once. Almost fell over the ledge.” It was clear Chazz wasn’t much of a hunter. But entering a new environment would surely give him time to polish his skills.

“Hmm, what are we gonna do with you?” Tia said teasingly as she padded beside Dusty. “Maybe next time we bide our time. Make a plan.” It was unlikely neither Tia or Dusty had any background in hunting. Apart from chasing pigeons or the off rabbit, her past life hadn’t included killing of any sort. She only hoped more time out here would help her improve. “Try to keep the weight off it for the time being. As for the bleeding, it should stop on it’s own. Is it just a flesh wound? Or do you think there is bone damage?” Although Tia barely knew what she was talking about, she felt the need to know the extent of the wound. This couldn’t cause permanent damage, could it? Tia looked at Abel, noticing his clear limp. “You should take it easy too, Abel. That looks painful.” Tia suggested in a soft tone. If only this could have been avoided. If not already vulnerable, the pack weren’t in a good place with two, maybe three dogs now injured.

As Dakota walked in the house, she saw Tia, Dusty and Abel all together. Dakota had observed that Tia was checking her pack-mates injuries. The pack was lucky to have a such a caring dog like Tia. "Thank you Tia, for checking on them." She thanked Tia for what she has done. She left the house and went back to the barn to see if the other dogs were awake. She saw that the young trainee, Kaiser had awoke. "Good morning, Kaiser"

Finn approached Chazz and Kahei with the bag of food he had found. He dropped it on the concrete ground. "I found some food scraps, want to take anything to eat?" He offered with a sweet voice. Finn wanted to make sure that Kahei had enough to eat but also Chazz. Finn is just that kind of dog.

✎ Rocksteady's ears perked when he saw the amount of food that was stored. With how their situation was now, they might as well have struck gold. To hell with the others, I should be eating all of this! He thought with a devilish smirk on his face. But for the sake of pleasing his superiors, he simply nodded. "Alright, thanks again." He eventually said, nudging one with his nose before taking a large bite. He looked up at his beta once before glancing back down at his paws. "So where are the others?" he asked. he typically slept away from the other dogs, no matter how cold it got at night by himself. He wanted to have some peace to himself and didn't want other dogs ruining it for him.

✎ Dusty huffed. "My plan was fine. We got the javelina, didn't we?" She chuckled, teasingly nudging into Tia's side. She held her hind leg up to look at it, learning to tolerate the sight more. The initial bite was deep, but when she pulled her leg from the beast's grip it caused more of her flesh to get ripped up. "I don't think any bone was damaged." She turned her neck around, licking the wound some more. She cringed at the salty taste but tolerated it, as long as it meant the wound would heal faster. She stood up, moving her leg some more to see if it was feeling better. The bleeding stopped for now, at least it wasn't as bad as it was before, and she cleaned the fur around her wound.

✎ Abel smiled at Tia before gently shaking his head. "Please, worrying about these things is supposed to be my job." He chuckled warmly. "I'm gonna go rest inside now. Make sure Dusty doesn't get chased by more of those things while I'm inside." He said, chuckling as his own joke before entering the house, his fluffy tail waving beside him. He laid down on the torn up couch, licking his wound as much as he could until the bleeding stopped. Abel let out a sigh before resting his head in his paws. His pack was going to be fed, that's all that mattered right now.

✎ Kahei chuckled, looking away modestly. "Ah, it's something I had to learn when living on the streets." She explained. "I make it look easy but it's pretty difficult. And now that ducks are getting hunted more often now they probably won't come here as often." She let out a sigh at the realization. When the ducks realize that the riverwalk isn't a safe place for them to rest, they'll find another body of water to have their families. And when that happens, there won't be any other sources of fresh meat in the city, unless Kahei is lucky enough to catch a stray cat or god forbid a pigeon. Kahei turned her head to the rhodesian ridgeback that suddenly approached. She glanced over at Chazz and gestured towards the bag of food. "you have it, chazz. I'm fine with this." She said simply before turning to continue and eat the rest of her duck.

“You’re right. I’m surprised they haven’t moved on already. Some of us here aren’t exactly subtle.” He chuckled, referring mainly to himself. Chazz wasn’t stupid, but stealth wasn’t his specialty. The Riverwalk had little cover to get even close to them without being spotted. Most would take off within seconds, leaving Chazz to go hungry. Like many fellow pack members, he got by on mere scraps. Speaking of scraps. Chazz licked his lips hungrily once the food smells drifted his way. “Don’t mind if I do. Thank you, Finn.” Chazz nodded a grateful acknowledgment and took a bone loaded with strips of meat. He held it tightly as he lay down to gnaw. “Where’d you find this stuff? Meals this good have mostly been taken.” He stated with curiosity.

“That’s true. Just give me warning next time before you dive right in.” Tia laughed as she followed Dusty, looking away as her face heated with a blush. Her attention returned when Dusty spoke about her wound. “That’s good. If it’s just the flesh then it should heal over without any damage. In the meantime, I’ll stick around to protect you in case anything tries to eat you alive.” Two fresh carcasses would bring a lot of spirit to the pack. It was a success, even if there happened to be consequences. Tia smiled at Abel before he headed inside. “You got it.” She answered.

Zievee stopped for a moment to look around and right as she did, she had caught sight of a rat scurrying by. She smirked, silencing her paws and stalking towards it, her tail and body low so that she wouldn’t eat caught and alarm it. The rat’s back faced Zievee, giving her an advantage to killing it. Suddenly Zievee pounced, her large paws caging in the rat, and her jaw slamming down on the rats back, biting hard. The prey laid limp on the ground, and she sat staring at it proudly before going in and eating it.

Kaiser jumped at the sudden voice that was speaking to him, quickly sitting up straight when he noticed it was the beta. “Goodmorning Dakota”, he replied with his goofy grin. His tail wagged slightly behind him hoping he would be able to go out and hunt with someone in the pack. He wasn’t really hungry as of right now but he wanted to make sure the pack was well fed before him.

reina trotted forward to inspect the meal. it seemed odd to her that humans would season and make food bland when it tasted perfectly fresh. she wished they would leave actual decent tasting food, but trotted forward and took a nibble out of one of the steaks before leaning over to pick as much as she could."they're probably further inside the territory", trying to sound more certain then she actually was."perhaps our pack's jarl will be satisfied if he sees you dragging the rest of the scavenged food towards the pack" reina gazed at the patrol dog, her eyes softening. many of the dogs in the pack had experienced a dark past, and perhaps he had one worse then most. she really didn't understand why a dog like her managed to earn some respect and fear over many dogs when many had much more strength.

oliver's ears were perked with wariness and his expression was dim as he searched the clearing. Come out.. the sunshine is warm today. that seemed to do it as a plump rabbit darted from between the grass. it wasn't bright enough to realize that a predator was waiting as he sprang forward. the hunter would've missed if the rabbit hadn't paused to gaze at him. It had no knowledge that he was deadly and immediately, he realized with dark thought that the rabbit was just a pup. Dumb rabbit, you're not supposed to make me feel bad! it took everything to hold down the vibrating creature and bat it with a deathblow. Great Star Clan, I'm so sorry, he rumbled before leaning down to feast on the delicious prey. soon, his stomach was full and he headed off, feeling pleased with his catch, but still eager to try to hunt for the pack.

Dakota listened as Abel informed her to keep and eye out for Dusty and any javelinas that may come back. "Alright, Abel" She nodded and exited the house once more. She sat on doorsteps and watched her surroundings. Her leg was still a little sore, but she tried to ignore the pain. Her ears constantly swiveled around to any noise that broke out.

"Your welcome, Chazz. And I got from some dumpster in an alleyway not to faraway from here.I was pretty lucky to find this" He said, ever so thankful for what he had found. He sniffed at the bag, it had the stench of old meat and bones. He licked his lips at the scent.

✎ Rocksteady nodded in obedience, letting out an amused huff as he picked them up. She'd know that there's no way he'd be generous enough to share a meal. But whatever saved him from getting his hide beat was fine by him. He padded past Reina, gesturing for her to follow, not bothering to check again if she did. He sniffed around, trying to figure out where the others have gone. They mostly hang by the Riverwalk, and so that was were he went first. He picked up the scent of Finn, following it down the steps and through the bridges. The moment he was around his packmates, his mood shifted from an obedient packmate serving his beta to a rude packmate begrudgingly following orders. "Got food." He said simply, releasing the food from his jaw and letting it hit the ground. He looked at Kahei with the duck inbetween her paws and he huffed loudly. "What? you already have food!" He growled, bending down and taking her share of food in his mouth. "You don't need this, then."

✎ Dusty made a loud, exaggerated squeal sound as she embraced the larger dog's leg with her small paws. "Aww thaaaanks!" She said in a sarcastic tone. "What would I do without my bodyguard?" She giggled briefly before jumping on top of the javelina. It was a lot less scary when it wasn't chasing after her at 100 miles per hour, but it was still an ugly and frightening creature. "C'mon, let's dig in! I don't wanna keep lookin' at it's ugly mug." She then began digging into it's pelt. Once the skin opened she used her teeth to help skin it. "We better hurry then get rid of it. Last time we left prey out, those nasty old coyotes came." She cringed at the memory. Coyotes were such weird creatures. She thought they were dogs at first, therefore creatures that could be reasoned with, but all they did was hiss and growl like primitive savages. Maybe they were dogs once, but they lost their humanity upon entering the wild.

✎ Kahei's eyes widened, surprised and glad that there was still good food to be found in the city. She never realized how little food there was in the city without the humans. She jumped when she heard a sudden thud, only to find it was Rawhide. She never liked him, and she was always worried that he'd harm her pups when they were born. An emotionless brute like him, such a thing wasn't beneath him. Had Chazz or Finn taken her share, she wouldn't have minded as much. But with his attitude and selfishness was layered behind his intent, not just a need for survival. "Hey, some of us are feeding for more than one!" She barked, not feeling fear with what she said. She had to nice, strong dogs by her side that would defend her if he got hostile.
