Our World (Semi Lit/Literate Dog RP) [Accepting]

[Beebop]

The deer meat was disgusting. It had obviously been there for days, and for some reason, the only think the Bang hadn't killed seemed to be maggots. Still, Bay was so hungry he had eaten a good deal of it, and even though it left a pungent taste in his mouth, he was feeling confident it would stay in his stomach.
Feeling at least a little better with something to digest, he turned to King. "And don't you know that if you don't eat something soon, you're gonna end up exactly like the shop keeper?" Bay didn't mean to be harsh; he liked King, and when he realized what he must've be going through, he softened a bit. "I just mean that food isn't exactly throwing itself at our feet anymore, King," he said, trying to encourage the doberman to eat.
He turned away, looking with interest in the direction he had been going. "The girl's name is Alatea. I only talked to her a few times while we were digging, but I like her; she knows what's what. You can trust her, I think," he said, standing to shake his fur. He created a cloud of dust and was suddenly ashamed of the way he knew he must look.
Still, he had made up his mind. The female he had been following had her head on straight; she could take care of herself. Would she return to the group soon? Maybe, but he wasn't worried about her in the least. She'd be fine. Right then, he was only worried about covering ground. "Listen you guys," he said, turning to face the other two, "I've been thinking it might be a better idea to split up. As far as I can tell, there isn't anything dangerous around here, so we should be fine alone." He cocked his head, trying to sell his idea. "But first, we need to come up with a plan. I haven't seen anything edible other than this trash," he gestured to the carcass, "and I haven't seen anything that resembles a home, either. What do you think we should do?"

((Our female characters seem to have been left in the dust, haha))

[Echoes]

At first, she found nothing in the mishapen forest but ash, and death. But focusing in on a vaguely familliar scent, she yelped in excitement and scampered as fast as her long appendages would carry her to the birth of the smell. Almost completely evaporated, a river bed stretched horizontally in front of her.

Leaning down she lapped up as much as she could hold and sighed, already starting to feel a little better. Jaunting hastily back to the scent of the group, she smirked as she overheard fragments of their conversation. How funny she exclaimed mentally they don't trust me, maybe that means I shouldn't trust them... oh well, they seem nice enough.

Suddenly appearing from out of the dust, her dark brown pelt shone and she flashed a toothy grin. "y'know, gossiping isn't very nice" she joked and continued with her velvety voice

"but anyways, I didn't find anything resembling a home, but what I did find was water" she barked, and flicked her tail, motioning for the trio to follow her and like Bay, kicking up dust where her paws touched the ground as she followed the imaginary map in her mind and trekked to the riverbed.

Alatea perched beside the river, draping her tail neatly over her paws and watching the group with inquisitive observation. Maybe I should go off on my own, I mean I don't think they like me... maybe I could get more done that way. How do I know I can trust them?

an internal debate was taking place in her thoughts, the verbal war only making things more confusing. Mustering up courage she stated flatly "if you want, I can go... you all don't seem to trust me and I wouldn't want to hold you guys back".

King stood up, stretching before fully standing. "Eh, I'm sure I am good. I can wait." he said, yawning to show off his large white canines. He shook his pelt off agian, squinting his eyes in the deer's direction. "It looks disgusting. I'd rather not swallow a maggot." he said, looking back at Bay. He wondered how Bay could eat that, but figured he better not.
"Spliting up is not a good idea. If we survived, anyone else could survive aswell. I think it would be best if we stook together. I have a strong feeling about this." he added, worry in his voice. He never liked being alone and he wasn't about to start. He wanted to burst out, Bay was really the only one that liked him, other then Jynx of course. He laid his cropped ears agianst his head, trying to show he was uncomfortable with leaving him.
The bang was making everyone go out of their minds, but he really wasn't wanting to go away. He whined a bit, " Believe me, it's not a good idea!" he finished off. His stomach growled agian, louder this time.

"Alright, alright. It was just a thought." Bay said in response to King. "But never mind that. You should really eat some--" he continued, but was cut off mind-sentance by Alatea. He didn't like being stopped like that and he didn't like her tone; she talked as though everything was just fine. He frowned and meant to spit up some acidic retort, but then she mentioned water. Needless to say, he dropped everything and followed her as fast as he could.
Sure enough, there it was. It would've ben a sad excuse for a river on any other day, but at that moment, it might as well have been a great lake. He ran straight into the middle, overjoyed at the feel of moisture on his burning skin. He dipped his muzzle down and took huge gulps from the pool in front of him, snorting into the water like a horse. There were tastes in the river that were new to him, like iron and mud, and a chemical overtone, but he could've cared less. He went right on with his sloppy drinking, not caring how it tasted or how he was getting it in his nose, or how dumb he must've looked to the others on the bank.
Once he had had his fill, he trudged happily to the bank and shook off. He felt clean and full of water, and most importantly, like he had completely recharged himself. He sat on the dusty bank next to Alatea, his tongue lolling out in a stupidly happy grin. Then his companion spoke, and he turned his attention to her.
"If you want, I can go. You all don't seem to trust me and I wouldn't want to hold you guys back."
Bay blinked at the female sitting before him; that was not what he had been expecting her to say. "Where on Earth did you get that idea?" he laughed. "Dude, you're practically our hero. I don't think any of us would be here if it wasn't for you. You got us off our asses and to food and water, for Pete's sake!" The shepherd licked the excess water off his muzzle greedily, and then turned to her and spoke in a much more serious tone, "Just because I don't know you well doesn't mean I don't want you around. I'm not speaking for everyone, but I think you've more than proved your worth to me. I'll do whatever you say, Boss."

My Username:gubgubqwas

Character's Name: Rowan

Gender: Male

Breed: Golden Retriever Mix

Family: Parents were dogfighters, and he was bred to fight. He fought for about a year, until police found the fighters and dogs. The police rescued him and took him to the cellar. It was not the best life, but it was better than getting his skin ripped and thrashed by other dogs.

Personality: Rowan is naturally aggresive but he is forever faithful to people he loves. He is competive and loves running.

Brief History of Previous Life: Rowan would listen to people yell and cracking whips as he fought other dogs. It was terrible, and they fought to the death. Rowan trained hard everyday and he hated every bit of it. He had a hatred for humans until he met a kind policeman named Alex Sherrin who rescued him and arrested the poeople who were fighting dogs and the people bidding on the fights. Alex would come down and visit him every day of every week. A couple months later, Alex's daught died in a car accident. Alex stopped coming and life was never the same... but Rowan was still fed and watered and still had friends in the cellar. He would survive. He was strong...

"Okay we found water. I think we shouldn't split up completely, but I think we could find shelter if we sent a search party. Until then, we can try to live off these horrendous parasites and dig an underground den. It can be like a camp, except with horrible food, but we can manage here by the water until the search party finds something. I feel like I have blended in this whole time, and I think I have some good ideas. Like Alex used to say... 'everyone can be someone, but they have to take a chance.' So, what do you guys think about the search party?" Rowan said excitedly. Rowan ran through the dirt, waiting for acceptance... and the beginning of a new life. Rowan thought secretly I've been a dogfighter, a cellar dog... and now what? ( )
