Heart of Fire

Fang-
You're playing with the big boys now.

Her coat was dark, and so was the night. Tonight, the sky was clear, and far above, the glowing sparks known as stars glittered in the heavens, far from the filthy, disasterous excuse for a world. The dog in question was large, and had wolf fangs. Her muzzle was also that of a wolf, and a tooth was just visible over the curve of her mouth. A scar went just over her eye. This wolf-dog creature clearly had more scars, yet her fur must have been smoothed over her other ones.

She let out a howl to the slither known as the moon, which reflected dim light onto the ground. She was in the junkyard, a place home to the dogs of ET. She was standing on a pile of garbage, and an old truck could be seen flipped over, half covered in the garbage protecting it. Inside, six tiny puppies began to whimper.

The female paused for a moment and looked over the junkyard, home to the ET dogs. The air wasn't as polluted here, but it still reeked slightly of the filth tainting what once was wonderful, clean air.

Duke

Sitting ontop of an old-school Volvo, he looked over across the Junk Yard. He looked up at the sky, as snow began to fall. He noticed that most of the snow was a black gray color, and he shudered, closing his eyes, imagining the one snowfall he ever saw, that was pure white. When the earth was clean and wonderful. Remembering the beautiful scenery, kids playing and having snowball fights, he looked at his paws with his eyes still closed.

Looking up he opened his eyes and spotted Fang. He got to his paws and jumped off of the volvo, his long legs reaching the ground and he trotted off his jump when he hit the ground. He padded silently around the garbage covering the ground and over to her. The snow on the ground was rather gray, and stuck to his paws. This was one of the worst times of the years, the snow could be very poisonous to a dog if eaten. The polluted air contaminating it. When he got to where she was, he rubbed his paws on a little ripped up cloth that seemed to once be a towel of some sort, red, getting the snow off that stuck to his paws.

"Hello, Fang.." he took a quick glance to the turned over car and then back at her, sitting down beside her. His shoulders were broad and he kept his head high, but looked at her with the deep pool of brown of eyes.

Fang-

"Hello, Duke... You saw I was pregnant when I joined ET not so long ago, correct? My pups are only three days old." The dog replied. As the dark snow began to fall down, swirling in the quick winds, the mother dog glanced back at the six puppies, cuddled up in the car. "They'll never know their father... We were never on good terms, and I think he was killed by a mutated, rabid fox afterwards."

The female shook her fur of the snow that was quickly falling. She glanced up at the sky once again. The snow was falling from clouds here and there across the sky, proving that this ammount of poison snow was only the beginning of what could happen next. Who knew... It was likely that poisonous blizzards were come. Blizzards were dangerous enough, without the poison. Fang looked down at the assorted trash under her paws. Maybe these objects could be used in the next supplies ET created.

"I wonder if the snow is like this in Romania..." Fang briefly wondered. She had seen clean snow, once, during the war. She suddenly looked at Duke with her yellow wolf eyes gleaming in this light, just the way they used to at the fights. Those eyes... Few dogs were used to those eyes. It scared them, due to the fact that Fang's gleaming yellow eyes were simply creepy, and knowing that fear would probably be what killed them in the end.

Fang's eyes weren't actually 'gleaming'. They were just like that in the light. She tilted her head towards the ground, so the light was reflected in her eyes no more. "Do you know much about my background?" A pause. "Because I've done a lot in my time here. I am still young, but I've seen Earth's best days... And I've killed for my life, back then."

Duke

He nodded in answer to her questions, "Yes..." He to noticed the wind picking up, and when she glanced where her pups were, he looked over at where they were. The pups would need extra attention, as they aren't full grown, and that includes their body systems, they're not as strong inside as a grown dog would be. They could catch mutations or dieseases quite easily. Their body system could be corrupted by this earth as a pup, or it could make them stronger, and more immune, it could go either way. Every dog here in ET was treated highly, some having more respect than others, but nevertheless, they were all important to ET.

He didn't want any dog in ET dieing while he was alive, and as long as he was ailve, he would do anything to protect his pack. "Hm....Romania..." he said in a sort of grunt, he himself had never been to Romania either. "...I imagine it sometimes...a beautiful heaven like place...white everywhere, being able to eat the snow again.." he sort of smiled to himself looking into nowhere across the junk yard. "and....kids, playing in the snow...having snowball fights, and building their snow humans..." He sighed quietly. He looked at her, and noticed her eyes. He knew she was a wolfdog, it was noticeable if you knew what a wolf looked like, and her eyes highly resembled one. Though, he didn't see her eyes in that sort of way, they were different, and some could say creepy, but no dog is alike. He found them interesting, seeing as they didn't exactly go with the rest of her, but at the same time, they fit.

Duke didn't know much about her background, nor much of any dogs here at ET, but he never asks. If a dog was ready to tell him about it, then they would. Nowadays, backgrounds and historys of a dog can be a very emotional and physical straining topic. He himself has not shared his background with anyone else, and no one has ever asked. In a way he is sort of greatful for this, as he doesn't feel like he wants to worry about his past, he has others to care for, and fight for. "No...a lot of us have done a lot in our time, and non that we should ever be ashamed of...the memorys of the good days on earth are what we can hold dear to us, and help us keep living, the desire to see in once more, and for those who haven't, the desire to see it for the first time....killing for your life...no one can judge you Fang, it's not about who you were or what you did, but what you do..." He looked at her again. If she wanted to tell him about her past, then she could, but he wasn't going to pressure her to tell him

Rumble waltzed up to the two talking canines, smirk crossing his face. "Hello, ET dogs. It's bee awhile since I've seen one of your kind. I missed you." he snarled

Fang-

"Starshine..." She gently murmured, before her tail smacked into the garbage with a thud. The wolfdog gently picked up the small, silvery pup by her scruff before gently placing her back in the sheltered part of the truck, with the rest of her litter. She then walked the short distance back to where she was sitting before turning her yellow gaze back to the ET leader.

The dog noticed the other male dog, but didn't even turn to look at him. Fang only heard him and thought to herself, How did he even get in here? The former fighting dog didn't speak and let out another long, wolf howl before she began to continue talking with the leader in front of her. He, luckily, wasn't the type of leader who thought he was better then all the others in his pack... Unless there was something he wasn't telling them.

"I, honestly, don't care about what others think of me. As long as they understand who I am and they respect what I can do, I'm okay with them. I don't regret my days, back when I was a killer. I have no regrets. As a matter of fact, I'm proud of the life I've lived and the life I currently lead. True, I have killed, but that made my stronger. I don't flinch at death, or at others judging me. In fact, if I was to tell my story, I'd be proud of it. Maybe not directly proud of killing some innocent dogs, but in a not-so-cruel way, I'm proud of that as well. As a matter of fact, I've been waiting to tell my story, before I tell it to my own pups." Fang was saying everything truthfully and directly from her heart, which could seem 'frozen' at times.

"You've probably noticed the wolf blood in my veins... Yes, it's quite noticeable, if you've seen a wolf. My eyes... My eyes have saved my life before, and I couldn't be more proud of them." It was true. There was once a bulldog wolf mix without the creepy eyes, one of the few breeds who had an odd advantage as well as wolf blood. He wasn't used to the eyes, and for a moment, was frozen in place by them. That had given Fang enough time to tear his throat out, and watch as scarlet spilled onto the floor.
