|  | Another Jail..
« Thread Started on Feb 15, 2006, 6:57pm » | |
As the sun set over the horizon, a medium sized fea with a dark black coat wandered into the old building. The wether was still cold, but at least the snow had gone. Bailey knew that she probably wasn't supposed to be here, for she could smell the markings of a brute.. but she was anyways. Her optics, one brown and one blue, scanned over the building, and the word 'jail' registered in her mind. She nodded to herself. It was, indeed, a jail. As she treaded along the cold, hard ground, her ears picked up the echos of all the smaller rooms. She could hear mice and rats running through the walls, and bugs chewing away at the little wood that was there.
The echos soon turned into tiny yelps and whines, and her memory seared back to her past, when she was just a tiny little pup. She remembered the smell of her mother and brothers and sisters. She was from a fairly large family, she knew because all she ever heard was dog barks. She remembered the taste of her mother's milk, and the way she fought her way to being the biggest pup of her whole litter. When her eyes opened, she could remember inching her way around the wire cage they were in, but she would always return to her mother's side. But when she and her brothers and sisters got to be about six weeks of age, something happened.
As she and her siblings bounced around the small cage, a human came. Two, actually. She could remember them opening up the cage door, and reaching in, grabbing her youngest brother by the scruff of the neck, and dragging him out of the cage, only to be thrown in a bag. As they did so, he yelped, and startled all the other pups in the cage, sending them whining to their mother's side. All but one. A little black pup with white markings, and one blue eye, one brown eye, stood right in the middle of the cage and growled.
Her growl wasn't that much of one, for she was still just a pup. But it was enough to tell the human hands to leave her alone, or it would mean trouble. She had closed her eyes while growling, and then she felt a jerking motion on her neck, and she was yanked from her place. She opened her eyes with a small yelp, not knowing what to do. She was a little scared of the humans, for that was her first time coming in contact with them. She got a little too scared, and her bladder just let loose. The human yelled out some words she didn't understand as she peed on him, and then she was flung to the ground.
She opened up her eyes, and looked up to see the humans taking up all the rest of her siblings. "damn dog." the one human had said, not even stoping his work. Bailey let out a tiny whimper, and looked around the room with her tiny observant eyes. There were hundreds of cages, filled with dogs of all shapes and sizes. Bailey's tiny mind raced with wonder, a wonder why they were all in cages. She saw the humans close her cage door, and start to move. She let out a yelp, and high-tailed her way to the closest exit she could find.
Bailey's eyes were moist with the memory, and as she looked at all the jail cells, she remembered all the dogs she had seen in the tiny cages. She let out a tiny whimper, but then remembered that there could possibly be other dogs lurking about, and the last thing she wanted was for them to see her so vulnerable to everything around her. She shook her head a little, trying to rid her head of the memory. She blinked her eyes a few times, and then continued on with her slow walk along the rows and rows of cells that lined each wall of this jail.
