Downtown Caenine City

[toushiro]

Dark thick clouds rolled in, covering the sky in quick swiftness, like a rabbit's speed, the sky began to fall. Pouring onto the ground, it covered scents, yet Rurick pressed on, determined to follow the path of the scent. His eyes were locked on the ground for a second, before he looked up. He was in a small yet wide alleyway. Where was he? Did he doublecross his paths before? He found everything changed dramatically from familiar to unfamiliar. Where was he?

Rurick's gaze flickered to something in the distance, thunder rolled through, springing into lightning, a dark shape took form on top of the further away trashmound. His gaze narrowed, the scents were not able to be tracked, but the feelings in his gut told him they were not to be trusted. They told him to leave, but he stood there in silence as he waited for them to respond. Instead, he responded in a demanding cold tone.,

"Who are you?! Tell Me now!" Rurick growl/snarled threatningly, thunder seeming to intensify his voice.

The figure seemed not to respond right away.

"Oh dont worry about that, you wont live long enough to need to know anyway...Officer Rurick..." The voice was low and growly, yet sounded of someone familiar. Rurick merely growled in response.

[Bliss]

A dark shape moved on the rooftops above teh two dogs,sharp eyes narrowed and his coat bristling a bit. His chain,slightly weathered from years of wear and tear,gave a soft rattle as he moved, but he made no other noise.

[toushiro]

Thunder boomed behind the large canine, silhouette showing that of a doberman. The light shone on his face, a small chain around his neck, two scars on the side of his muzzle. It was noone else...but him.

Rurick narrowed his eyes, hackles raising, he bared his fangs, knowing what to expect.

"Well well, aren't we feisty?" Rifle sneered cheekily as the dogs he commanded began to encircle Rurick. Eyes fixated on no one but Rifle, Rurick didn't move, his tail fluffed up and sticking straight up, it was an easy thing to see, except for the color of his fur, it wouldn't have been easy to tell if he was dog, for all he showed in his anger was his wild instinct wolf side.

The dogs leapt, going for Rurick all at once.

Swiftly and gracefully, he tripped up the main three dogs, leaping from either direction around them, he leapt into the air, landing on the ground away from them. All three went into a panick, before eerie cries came from them as blood splattered the ground from their necks and chests, falling to the ground in writhing pain. Rurick looked down at them before looking up at the rest of them. They hesitated. He looked back up at Rifle.

"Dont underestimate me old man. You'll regret it" Rurick snarled.

Rifle looked down at the pup. Bending down he stepped down from the garbage dumpster, walking towards Rurick, he seemed no threat as he did. "Impressive for your age. Those dogs were part of my squad. You took them down without a flinch."

"Dont patronize me Old Man!" Rurick growled, his temper snapped, before he leapt at the dog, yet just as he did, Rifle moved in, easily coming up to his neck, he was grabbed and tossed as if he were merely a light weight pup again, into the very trash can the doberman had been on.

Rurick groaned as he hit the dumpster, before he fell to the ground with a loud and painful thud. He shakily stood up slightly, yet Rifle towered over him.

"I said your movements were impressive...but your still ten years too young to be challenging me pup." Rifle replied.

Rurick narrowed his eyes, though knew when he was defeated.

"What do you want?" Rurick grumbled in irritation, mostly angry because he was tooken down as if he were nothing more than a fly being flicked to the side.

"Heh, all you alsatians are the same...alright clever pup, here's the deal. We need dogs like you on our side. Will you join us?" Rifle said in a serious low tone. Rurick looked up at him, eyes shifting to look at the right eye of Rifle and then to the left in a quick glance, as if trying to pin point his exagerated teasing or something.

[Bliss]

Kiger watched as the fight commenced below him, ears twitching occasionally from the rain,as well a the cries fo pain from the wounded mutts.

He focused his amber eyes on the alsatian. He's pretty good.Definately someone I'd hate to run ito in a place liek this. The older cop started to turn away,figuring Rurick had it all under control. However,only after a few steps did he hear the rattle fo the dumster being hit and a groan of one of the two remaining dogs. He returned to the roof, eyes narrowing against teh rain as well as the fact teh doberman was standing over the other cop.

Kiger,growling softly, moved from teh rooftop to find a way down, his coat britling even with teh rain as he approached the site. "Oi,whats going on down here?" He says slowly,jaws tightening a bit.

[toushiro]

Rifle turned his head to see another dog show his face. By sight, he seemed like some old dog that nosyed around in others buisiness.

Though his eyes closed halfway, considering his objective.

Rurick looked up in surprise, seeing someone on the roof.

[Bliss]

Kiger didn;t wait for an answer, as he had an idea in his mind already. He turned,as if to leave but in fact carefully jumped down from teh rooftop by landing on overhangs and ledges, shaking his pelt once he was on teh ground.

His amber eyes locked onto Rifle,he moved forward slowly, stopping at a distant he felt was not endangering to himself should teh doberman attack. He glanced once at Rurick. "It wasn;t so smartto come down here alone. Too many dogs who'd want to try and use you." He spoke teh words easily,as in teh past,they were told to him and he intoll told them to other young dogs.

"Now,if you;d be so kind to answer my question." He says flatly,the softness out of his voice fading quickly as he gazed at Rifle.

[toushiro]

Rifle narrowed his eyes, this dog was trying to raise his temper so he would act irrationally and attack. He wasn't an assasin for nothing.

"Heh, well Rurick, our business will continue the next time we meet...come with your answer." Rifle spoke directly to the silver and black german shepherd.

Rurick let his eyes narrow on their own, before Rifle side stepped and walked away. The wounded dogs staggered to their feet before walking.

[Bliss]

Kiger watched Rifle leave closely,his ears back a bit on his head before he snorted. No wonder Sergeant was worried... The dogs here are on a new caliber from our old criminals.

The shepherd cross turned to look at Rurick. "i'm not going to ask what that was all about rookie, but if he was asking something from you I'd decline." He says as loosely as he had before.

"You have somewhere you can go where he can;t get to you?" He asked after a second of thoughts.

[toushiro]

Rurick watched as Rifle left, his icy blue eyes never leaving the doberman until he seemed to just...dissappear into the dark shadows.

Still ill-tempered by the lost, Rurick snarled at Kiger, standing up on his own, he wasn't really hurt, just his pride. "Don't tell me what to do old man. I dont need your help, or anyone else's" He snapped.

Standing up, he made no sound, though tiny cuts were in his fur from the dog's fangs, it didn't bleed showably, nor was it visible. They hurt like h*ll though. Rurick walked away from the other dog, though stopped about two yards away.

"I guess I should thank you for helping me. My name's Rurick, and you are?" He asked, his tone was pissed and icy, completely formal in words, yet tone was obviously not happy. "Well, I can't thank you properly if I don't know your name" Rurick snapped again.

[Bliss]

Kiger rolled his eyes at Rurick." Right.You don;t need any help, even after that doberman had you pinned to teh ground like some vunerable pup." The shepherd shook his coat off,trying to displace his aggitation,the chain rattling as its crested tag struck teh silver rings. Why were all young dogs like this? He could hear Bliss growling the same words back from back when they were pups.

He turned his gaze away from Rurick a bit,sniffing the air with his amber eyes unfocused. "As for my name, its Kiger.

[toushiro]

Rurick glared back at the male, wanting to rip his throat out just so he could get over this anger welling within him. He turned his back and ran off, not wanting anything more to do with the old dog.

**sorry for these short posts...its totally not me these days...been so busy though. sorry**

[Bliss]

**it quite alright. We all hae those kind of days **

Kiger watched as the younger male ran off. He shook his head slowly, sighing. "He's gonna get himself in a lot of trouble.." He started to pad off in anotehr direction before he stopped,sighing. "I'll never forgive myself if that pup gets in league with those dogs... Gangs already took so much..' He turned adn padded slowly after Rurick,nos ein the air and twitching.
