Five dogs strode through the thick forest underbrush, each —except for one— exuding their own aura of distinctive power. They were a unit of hardworking machines, with layers of brawny muscle rippling underneath their coats. A fleet of soldiers amidst the strange forest that stretched out beyond.
indentWell, for the most part.
indentA blenheim cavalier dashed alongside of the group, their doe-like eyes brimming with excitement and tongue lolling joyously. They were noticeably smaller than them all, and seemed to have to run while the others walked in a slow gait.
indentThe spaniel came to a crashing halt after a few more minutes of running gleefully, wheeling around to look at her much larger friends. “I heard something! Out there!” She barked, letting her feathery tail gesture towards bushes.
indent“Mira, there is absolutely nothing out there, so can you stop giving us this crap?” Costello snapped, his usual hotheaded nature shining through.
indentDiablo released a low growl of warning to Costello, his amber gaze burning into the pitbull. The doberman was incredibly protective over his dear cavalier friend Mira, whom was quite the opposite of him. “Can you shut up, mutt? In case your deaf ears can’t hear it, there is something in the bushes. ”
indentCostello silenced a whine that was bubbling up inside him, knowing that his actions would cost him. He dropped his eyes from Diablo and instead focused his attention on the bush.
indentA streak of silver fur was visible through the leaves of the plant, and soon the body of the dog was visible as they miserably attempted to crawl away. They were incredibly skinny, each rib easily visible under their thin, mangy coat. They were a threat, even then. And threats needed to be eliminated.
indentCostello and Aries glanced at Diablo for a moment, waiting for his approval before charging towards the scraggly dog, snarls erupting from their mouths. Diablo watched with a smirk, while Mira and Daedalus gazed with horror. Daedalus hid his alarm well.
indent“Diablo! They’re going to hurt him!” Mira cried.
indentDiablo looked down at her. “Um, Yes... They are.”
indentMira’s eyes widened. “No! That’s an inoccent dog!”
indent“They’re on our territory.”
indent“This isn’t our territory at all! Diablo, you have to stop them!” She cried as the bloodcurdling whines and pleas of help from the weak loner filled the air. “How are you this way, you weren’t like this when I came to the pack!”
indentThe doberman shook his head. “That’s different.”
indentMira looked into his eyes, her honey orbs full with emotion. “How? How, Diablo?”
indentDiablo suddenly looked uncomfortable, and after a prolonged period of silence he released a booming bark, commanding his soldiers to step away. “Stop! Let the dog live.”
indentCostello and Aries stepped back from the wounded hound and disappeared into the trees after Diablo dismissed them with a curt nod.
The loner was breathing unevenly and seemed terrified, although thankful. They glanced weakly at the looming doberman. “Thank... Thank you... I am Arrow. I thought that the forest... the forest had sent another demon hound to kill me.”
indent“The forest? My soldiers must have beaten you up quite badly if you’re imagining things. ” Diablo replied.
indent“No, No.. It was this forest.. It’s cursed, it’s all cursed..” The brute slumped to the ground after that, seemingly unable to hold his own weight for any longer. However, he managed to say a few more words. “Thank you for letting me live, I am indebted to you.”
indent“I did not do this for you. I did this for her. So if you are indebted to anyone, it is her.” Diablo gestured towards Mira, who was watching Diablo intently. The doberman smiled softly, watching as she returned the smile with her own adoring grin.
• now..
They were home. Through torrent storms, deadly fires and cursed lands. They had found their haven, high in the mountains. A place uninhabited by humans, the only mark of their existence a luxurious castle, one that once held nobility. Kings and Queens graced these lands, and now, royalty had returned.
indent“So,” Mira breathed, gazing up at the top of the castle, that was covered in a veil of mist, as the empire advanced. The journey to the castle itself proved to be difficult, for their was a long stretch of garden that was almost maze-like. It sported high hedges and stone arches, as well as beautiful fountains. It seemed to be almost never ending. “This is where our journey ends.”
indent Diablo looked around him for a fleeting moment before gesturing to a hole in one of the hedges, quickly squeezing his body through it. Mira followed suit. The doberman seemed more at ease now that they were alone, rather than the rest of the kennel watching them as they spoke. He already knew some were speculating what was going on between them.
indent“No,” Diablo replied. He looked at Mira with a tender expression, shaking his head momentarily. “This is where our journey starts. This is all ours, and soon, it will be our pups.”
indentMira tucked her head in her chest, smiling down at her paws at his words. “You’ll need to tell the pack; they deserve to know.”
indent“And they will. Things will change here, and for the better.”
indentMira smiled softly, giving his shoulder a nudge of affection before squeezing through the bushes once again. She watched as Diablo crept through with a bit of struggle, his large body a disadvantage for once. She chuckled before moving in a brisk walk, letting her pelt brush against her mate.
indentA content silence fell upon the pair as they continued through the garden, Mira transfixed with the flowers and nature surrounding them while Diablo kept his gaze sharp, watching the silhouettes of his kennel members across the hedges.
indentThe peace that enveloped the pair did not last, for in just a few moments a volley of piercing howls and barks filled the air, exuding only a fierce mixture of terror and rage.
indentDiablo tore after the baying, with his lovable companion Mira desperately at his heel. Racing through the labyrinth of a garden to reach his pack mates, his only aid the agonizing yelps.
indentHis paws raked through the dirt as the hulking fortress came into view, the entrance visible.
indentThe bodies visible.
indentLimp across the stone floor, Hugh and the recently rescued weimeraner Arrow lay. Their bodies were lifeless, blood pooling around them with their killer resting a blood stained paw on Hugh’s head. They were a massive dog, bigger than even the brutish kangal Remington. His pelage black as twilight, which accompanied a pair of piercing eyes that matched the colour of the blood of his victims. A scar ran across his right eye, as well as another at the base of his throat.
indent“Greetings. You must be the one that they tell stories about, Diablo.” The male welcomed the doberman smoothly. “Don’t look so surprised that I recognize you, you know me after all. Or at least my father, before you killed him.”
indent"I know nothing of this, you pathetic rogue.” Diablo spat, stalking towards him with his fangs bared. “You have no right to even be in my presence. How dare you kill them!” Diablo’s fury slipped through his words despite the attempts to bottle them down.
indent“Don’t pretend you don’t know him! I am Erebus, son to Anubis.” Erebus suddenly snapped, his eyes glinting with malice. His tone regained it’s smoothness as he continued. “Why do you care for those two? It is just another casualty, another fatality to add to the list. Although, I’ll be pleased if it’s noted that I am the killer, the one who destroyed their lives and the ones that loved them.”
indent“How dare you!” Diablo cried with anger as he launched himself at the much larger male. Diablo went straight for the throat, his fangs tightening around anything he could grab onto while his paws battered the brute, who snarled with fury. The struggle did not last long, for one yelp of agony silenced all others, and soon afterwards, a lifeless body was revealed in the jaws of the other.
indentThe kennel gasped in horror as they looked on at the spectacle, seeing their leader drop onto the two other bodies.
indent“But his nine lives! He hasn’t even used one!” A dog cried out in protest, unable to wrap their head around the death.
“In the end, everything dies. Even that precious mutt you called your leader with his special nine lives. I imagine you didn’t think he’d die, at least not at the hands of a.. what did he call me? Pathetic rogue?. Well, well, you really shouldn’t underestimate me. It might just be the last thing you do.” Erebus purred. “Now, shall we get to the reason I’m here? Or would you prefer another body to drop before that,” His words, although holding a light tone, were as sinister as one could come across. The massive dog was not in the joking mood, and was telling quite the truth.
indent“We will never back down without a fight!” Atticus growled, charging towards Erebus.
The mighty jaws of the dog clamped over the tender flesh of the malinios’s throat, crushing him in a swift motion that appeared effortless. The empire watched in horror as his body soon became limp, and as the lethal grip of Erebus loosened Atticus crumbled onto stone. Lifeless. Just like the others.
“Look around you, see my rogues? They are my guards, and will kill those who act against me without so much as a blink of sympathy. See me? I am your ruler, no one else. ” He growled gravely, his deep voice echoing throughout the kennel. “The life of the Vehementi Empire is dead. It will never rise, and will become another kennel that went up in flames. The time of my kennel, has risen.”
“So either join the Imperium of Ira Vehementi or die.”
