Groggy minded and woozy, Motus stirred awake slowly. He shuffled up trying to stand but fell back down. His paws felt cold steel under them as the blankets moved around. Instantly his eyes flew wide open. "W...where am I? Ugh my arm is hurting and I feel so droopy...wait..why..am I still a husky?"
He looked at himself to see he was still a husky. Motus also noticed he was in a kennel. "Maybe if I call out, someone will hear me and help me out." "HEY! LEMME OUTTA HERE!! I NEED TO GET HOOOOME!!"
Soon a young girl appeared in front of the kennel. She just kept staring at me while I talked. "Look lady, I'm not a dog..I am…" But all she did was smile and walk off. Was she deaf?
Motus couldn't tell very much about what she was going to do. He laid back down and huffed aloud. He was not pleased with his current situation. Motus made it known by complaining about firstly..the food bowls. "Firstly...lady. I don't appreciate the food, I don't eat dry kibble. I prefer fresh…"
The lady appeared and smiled and said ; "Awww poor boy. What is it? Why are you so noisy today? Do you need to go to use the bathroom? Here I'll grab a leash and I'll take you out."
Apparently the woman only heard husky howls and grumbles while Motus heard his own voice. Figuring this out made the Alpha more grumpy then he was at first. He laid there awaiting her return when she came back with a leash.
She opened his kennel and helped him stand up to walk. Being fully awake, his healing abilities started But were still slow. So he could walk lightly but with a small limp. The girl slowly led him to her high fenced back yard and let him wander. " ooh noo, you're not seriously thinking I'm about to.."
Motus stops realizing all she could hear was howls and grumbles. He just sat there with an offended look on his face. She tugged his leash trying to coax him to go but after 10 minutes of him remaining still she gave up. As the girl led Motus inside, he wondered about her name. She let him wander her home as she disappeared into an office-like room.He followed her and stood on the side of her desk. He saw a paper with a name: "Atzi..so that's your name." "No..get down..off now. No doggos on desks." She gently pushed him off and petted his ears again.
Motus gave an annoyed murr and sat by the desk. Atzi picked up the phone and made a few calls. Each one she inquired about the husky she found but no one she called had claimed him nor had information on him.
After hours of calls she made the choice to keep him. "Well, since you're my new pet now, we need a name for you...hmm..let's see…"
After an unsuccessful day of calls to almost everyone in her whole town, Atzi sat and contemplated the Husky's new name. She was at a loss for words when it came to a good pet nameas he was her very first one to have. She eventually settled with the name Demon because of the mean look he was currently giving her from rattling off various names. Motus only gave a disgruntled grunting huff as her name choice.He still looked displeased at Demon but Atzi shrugged and stuck with that moniker as she thought it fit him best overall. As it was getting late into the evening, Atzi grabbed her coat and Demon's leash from off the wall hooks and turned to him as she spoke, leash in hand. "Alright..let's go on one last walk before bed. Come on boy." Atzi said as she led him out for a walk. Motus grumbled in a bothered way as he was not looking forward to this walk of humiliation.They ventured along the treeline when fir a good bit of time before Demon's head shot up and alert. She
Still running, Motus huffed and puffed the more he ran through the snow. His ears up and alert but he never heard the howls get closer as he got farther away from Atzi. He suddenly stops and thinks. After running for a good 10 minutes, Motus realized that they never followed him. "So, if I'm not the target...then who..is..?" Motus couldn't believe it. This was a first.Motus froze and realized they wanted Atzi, "But..why the human...why target her?... she's not that import-" Motus was confused at this and felt a strong pulling urgency to reach her. This felt new to Motus yet familiar at the same time. It scared him at first til he realized what it meant. He suddenly and high tailed it back towards where he left her. The howls and growls grew faint then louder and his drive to reach her grew stronger.He ran faster and more determined despite the dull pain in his healing leg that was throbbing like crazy. His current husky state slowed down his healing
After a few days of rest and relaxation, Atzi finally decided to try and figure out what happened to her that night. Demon was nearby on the floor near her desk. He lifted his head when he heard her voice. "What..was that..? I..don't understand…"She looks at the husky and for a second thought he was listening. She reached put and spoke to him as she petted his soft ears. "Oh Demon, what am I going to do?""Well first off my name's not Demon..though my enemies think I am a demon." His voice finally spoke aloud andAtzi jumped back surprised and ran into the other exam room.Motus followed and pawed at the door. 'Ahhh come ooon. I'm not that scary am I? We can now talk about it now Atzi. I'm surprised you can actually understand me."Atzi couldn't believe it, her dog was talking to her. "Dogs don't talk...d..do they?" She thought to herself. She waited a bit before coming out. Motus was sitting on the chair near her door.He hopped
The next day, Atzi and Motus got things together for the trip. Motus told her what they needed and Atzi packed it in a bag. Soon they were headed out. "So where do we go now Motus?" Atzi asked him as he sat in the backseat."First of ...all...i..am..not..a..pet.." He said each word as he climbed into the front seat. "...so I get to sit up front like a normal human being.." He nods his head with a matter of factly manner and chuffs."Secondly we are going to stop at Lake Destiny for a few days. You need to train."Atzi looked at him with a surprise in her eyes. "Train. ? Train for what..?" She asked as they drove down a wooded road. Motus smirked and looked at the passing trees.After a few hours' drive, they arrived at Lake Destiny. Motus yawned as he just awoke from a nap. Atzi opened his door and he got out. She gathered a few things and followed him to the water."We need to draw out that power you displayed. It's t
They reached the camp and Motus wanted to speak, but didn't know what to say. He felt bad for scaring her and wanted to make amends for his bad choice. He had grown to like her very much and didn't want to ruin any chances with her.Atzi pitched her tent and started a fire afterwards. She stared at the burning orange flames, the floating embers and listened to the cackling wood as it burned.The noises of the fire were all that filled that night's cool air. Motus settled near her but still gave her space. She found her earbuds in her bag and put them in her ears, linked them to her cellphone and began to listen to her music.After a few minutes, Atzi stood up and went towards the lake. Motus watched her and followed behind a bit, worried for her to be safe. Atzi began to jog around the lake as a way to think better.Her music picked up pace and so did her running pace. Her heart raced even more as she picked up speed. Her head lowered as s
The pair woke up all cuddled together under the trees. Motus stirred awake first and looked at Atzi with his icy blue eyes. He gave a kind smile and gently nuzzled her face.She woke up and blushed a bit red.Atzi sat up and stretched a bit. She stood up and looked at Motus.“Well, I think my music in my earbuds helped out. Instead of you scaring me, I'll keep at least one of these in my ears, just in case.” Motus nods to her in response and they head back into the woods.The other day before they arrived at the lake, Motus explained how this place wasn't very far from Damon’s castle. He said they could hike the rest of the way because a car can't get up the steep hill his castle is on top of.Atzi listened and was thinking of what could happen once they got to the castle. Would they see those guards again? Will they be able to get past them if they do see them? And if so, where from there?All t
Atzi continued to shift through many volumes and tomes she pulled off the dusty shelves. Each she looked through didn't have any clue or answer for a curse breaker.She almost gave up when she heard a book fall on the hardwood floor. Atzi looked up from the book in her hands and closed it slowly.She crouched in the aisle and began to walk slowly towards the back of the room. Her brown eyes looked all over, trying to catch a glimpse of what made that book fall.She heard scurries across the floor. Atzi grew anxious and a bit scared. "Who's there?" She asked in a shakey voice. There was no reply.She asked again only to hear another falling book hit the floor. Her footsteps creaked on certain places on the wooden floor.She then caught a glimpse of red eyes in a shadow part of the area before they disappeared. Atzi jumped surprised but stood in place.Atzi slowly walked towards where she say the eyes were last seen. In her hands, she held a t
Motus leapt at the tall man as Atzi disappears from his sight. "i hope she gets out safely." He thought to himself as he attacked. The man caught Motus by his neck and threw him into a nearby shelf. The shelf and all its dusty contents crashed on top of Motus with a loud clatter."You ain't so big and bad now are ya? Haha! Just a scared pup you are now." The tall man stepped into a brighter light to reveal himself as Amadaus. Motus attempted to stand, but he was wobbly and aching,"Take this mutt to the grand meeting room. Im sure the Alpha would love to see what we caught." Amadaus said with a nasty sneer. Two other guys came at Motus and carried him off.Amadaus was just about to fo!low when he caught the scent of another....a female. A wicked smile appeared on his lips bigger then the chesire cat. He pulled a lower ranked wolf to him and said."Smell that? We hace a little lost girl running around...find her and bring her to me..unharmed. D
