Tracker Dog Application Series 7Username: Ravenmoon
Tracker Dog you want: 21
Name you'll give it: Immortal
Why:
His speed and cunning make him never be caught. Immortal in a way. Being a stealth, he can sneak in and do what he needs, whether it's get a war plan, or weaken some before a war.
Reason why you want it: Nex, I hate you. You make such epic trackers! To make such awesome trackers is basically torture. I can't resist this handsome one. The brown and green together works miracles, while the darker rounds on him add a special, pretty touch. The simple fact of that wondrous design makes me want to go for him, yet the gun adds a blast of greatness. Not someone I'd like to mess with, this one seems like one tough cookie. If Nex let's me have him (If I win), there would be no way to make me forget him.
Will it be used in any kind of story?: Yes. The gun on his back sparks imagination and thought like a firework. His colors nudge me to darker areas.
I must write a story! my mind tells me. The introduction part is mingled with the story for this application, mind you. But I am going to write another story... Just for fun...
Describe its personality:Survival.
That's the only word to describe this tracker. It's the brightest flare to describe Immortal's personality. It's simply what he is, what he
needs. In a war, an epic survival instinct can be greatly useful.
He knows when to attack. He knows his limits, when to turn tail and flee. Yet Immortal is no coward. Oh no, he just uses common sense. In a battle outnumbered four to one, the one that is no fool will know that it's not safe to continue the raging war.
He knows he his job- sneak into an enemy camp, find out all he can about the enemy's plans, run out without being seen. Maybe tranquilize a few people in the progress. But he won't hurt people. That against his personal rules: No killing the weaker (This also includes smaller armies), no hurting little children, helping people and always fire when someone tells him 'Fire!'.
Courage is often rewarded by an immense feeling of satisfaction. After all, what can make Immortal's chest burn with happiness, other than knowing he has done something brave and great? The main reason that he makes it shine through the mist and darkness is that makes him feel fluttery and happy inside.
Living where a raging war is going on, that feeling is something quite pleasurable.
Write an introduction for your Tracker:(Divided into three sections. Section one, dilemma and intro to the intro. Section two, adventure. Section three conclusion and real intro. Just so you know.)Be careful
Step lightly
And most of all,
Never say 'Good bye'The deep bark of the bomb shattered throughout the area, leaving a shrill cry ringing in the young Tracker's ears. He shook his brown head, trying the clear this ring. This Tracker was nicknamed Immortal for his amazing skill and need to survive.
Immortal knew the signal. That had meant hide. When a bomb detonates, anyone had to hide quickly, for it mean another could go off.
A shiver if excitement went up his back as he looked around for a safe place to go. The shiver was the kind one gets when one is going down a steep hill, and then hits one of the bumps, causing them to feel as though they were flying and falls back down, savoring the sweet, happy feeling it had gave them, yet slightly dreading the next bump.
Immortal ran headed to the nearest trench, wind whipping around the huge gun attached to his back. It glowed a tiny bit, but the late day sun ate the glow up. Green steam billowed out of the top like a train' gas would, yet, it too, disappearing.
Immortal leaped for the trench as some other dogs of war gracefully dived in. This was no time to be graceful. Many, if not all, of these dogs were dirty, and their fur was a nest of knots, and besides, this was a war, not a ballet show.
Immortal leaned against the cold dirt wall of the trench, feeling his heart beat heavily, a huge hammer against his chest. It was mostly because he was frightened, but excited, as a hungry man might be, being offered food by a suspicious figure.
A man jumped in, his gloved hand on the side, feet with heavy boots hitting the dirt floor first. He looked around and picked on Immortal.
"You. Immortal." He declared, staring at him, his voice a deep growl. His head wasn't held high, but Immortal felt power radiate from this man, so he lowered his head and drooped his tail as a sign to say
"You're the boss, Mr." He had piercing eyes. Immortal could almost feel them drilling through him. It made him feel awkward- it was odd, it seemed to be calculating him, sizing him up.
Enemies will most certainly be intimidated by him, thought Immortal, keeping his head so low his striped mussel brushed the ground. He did not care- this was no beauty pageant, this was a cold blooded war. People killed themselves. People were a bunch of bloodthirsty demons, doing whatever it takes to make the enemy drop the first blood. They had no pity- a badly wounded person from the other camp? They killed them without another thought.
A perfect army would be one where they nursed the wounded, where they actually helped the defeated, made one's death (From any side) honorable.
"Immortal!"The sharpness the man used with this word brought Immortal back from his dream land. Immortal bent his neck down low, raising his shoulder blades up slightly. This was no act of rebellion, simply an act of submission.
Another man jumped inside, his eyes dull and blood splattered over his clothes. He slumped down against the dirt walls and begged for help.
"Go get some. Don't delay" He glared at him, his eyes slits.
Immortal did not know what to call this queer man. For now, he simply would refer him as '
The guy with the awesome eyes', or
'Creepy guy'. Immortal decided
'Creepy guy' was better.
Immortal comprehended the order and ran inside the trench. Soon enough, the path ended, and Immortal was to be forced out of the pit, stripped of all protection and defense except for his huge gun on his back. It didn't weigh down on him- oh no, he had always known it like that.
Imagine being created. You have been put a heavy weighted thing on your back, and your memories cannot stretch back to just
when it happened. You have just always known it like that.
That's Immortal.
Immortal pulled himself out of the trench, front feet first. As he scrambled up (His back paws desperately clawing at the wall), he noticed that he was not as agile as the other trackers. That was alright, they didn't have any special things to help them along. No, just what all other tracker have.
He reached the top to find it barren and empty. He felt that his back paws (With which he used to kick dirt up) were completely covered with dirt. He growled irritatedly, and first scratched at his right paw with his left paw, and vise-versa.
Trying to find any extra information, Immortal swayed side to side, feeling the ground with his extra sensitive paws. Nothing showed up under them. Coming to the conclusion that nothing was around here, he decided tI check further along. After all, he couldn't give up. He remembered the injured man. Immortal couldn't possibly back down from him, when he desperately needed help, could he?
He kicked the ground back with his front left paw, trying to discover what it was. Turns out the landscape couldn't change so dramatically. It was dead grass.
He hopelessly wandered around, looking for just one, just one tiny hint that could point him to help, to the right direction.
Nothing. Nada. Nope. Zero.
The sun started to settle, and the young tracker had clearly become lost. He could no longer find the trench. He had to find another way out, help. He had been asked to get it, now he was longing for it.
Lost and alone, Immortal continued along his aimless path.
End of part one.
