Three brown paws and one cream spotty paw had become stuck in the mud as Mutt had tried walking through it. He was slowly sinking and in the process of removing one of his feet, he wouldn't completely sink in but he feared that he would. He'd never stepped in mud this deep before, it felt like it was sucking his feet and it made him feel queasy.
"Help!" he yelled, "Anyone out there?"
By now he was VERY panicking fearing he would die there, the male muttered swear words as he tried to get himself out, he freed a foot and then put it back down somewhere else to get out another one, and there was a squelching sound as his foot became stuck in the mud again.
"Sh*t" he said and looked around "God damn it! Is anyone out there?"
Almost as if admitting defeat he stood there and waited to either sink in or miraculously get out.

Kal never liked the feeling of mud on his paws, so he strickly kept clear of anything that basically resembled mud. He was traveling through Dante's Pass randomly and was bounding from rock to rock, making sure to step were it was not that wet and would cause him harm.
His ears picked up an echoy voice not to far off in the distance.
i wonder who that is, and whats going on
His curiosity got the better of him as the black border collie/grey wolf mix trotted lightly to the supposed sink of mud not to far off
"HELLO"
Kal replied to get a better location of the other. He sniffed the air and caught a faint smell of a canine, male. He sneezed as the stench of mud, dirt, and other raunchy things like that filled his nostrils.

The only time the mud bothered her was when she sunk in far enough that it pulled her feet down. So she stuck mostly to the rocks.
Apon hearing the other person she rolled her eyes, her rock hopping picking up in speed as she all but galloped to the distress cry
What was it with people getting stuck out here on this road?

Kal had spotted the other liver colored border collie mix. He smiled at this for he hadnt seen another border collie of any kind last since his mother, and that was a tragic memory he wished not to repeat.
"Need help there stranger?"
He lightly laughed as he hopped from rock to rock around the other male. He looked around and found a rather large rock that could be moved.
"look out below okay? im gonna get you out"
He smirked as he jumped to the circular stone and rolled it to where the male was stuck. He had to step into some mud, not liking it made him push the stone even faster and farther. He finally brought it to another rock just above, and next to the other.
"alright, here it goes"
He heaved the heavy stone into the mud next to him and watched it start to sink slowly. He then jumped upon the stone and grabbed the other male by the scruff of the neck; and with all his might started to lift him out of the mud while they were both silently sinking as well. He then tossed him over to a dryer spot in the mud as he could feel the impending doom of wet and caked paws, he leaped over to the other.
"there. See? your alright"
He simply smiled at the stranger.

Mutt smiled at him "Thanks stranger" he said.
He looked at his muddy paws it was hard to tell one of them was actually a creamy color, he chuckled to himself. He thought for a second then decided to tell the stranger his name.
"I'm Mutt, named so by humans who call me that, Mutt by name, Mutt by nature, Mutt by breed. I'm a border collie cross Timber wolf" he said.
He wagged his tail and looked at the stranger, why had he simply helped him? Was it because he was simply friendly? He hoped so, the last thing he needed was to have someone pull him out to join a pack somewhere, especially after hearing about Sallin from a dog he had met once. He thought for a moment and decided if he were to join a pack it would be one that hated Sallin and clashed with them.
He had once been told by a wolf he met that you give your life for the mission, loyalty to the leader is all that matters. Mutt had decided if he did join a pack he would like to become a 'warrior' if there was such a position. He was a good fighter when needed to be but he hated killing so that was his downfall.

Kal started to lick his paws clean for he HATED with a passion the feel of mud on his paws. He spoke in breaks as he licked then spoke then licked again.
"Names.....Kalsyfer......but......you.....can.....call.....me.....Kal.."
He spoke with annoyance in his smooth voice. Once finally done he did a full body shake and looked at the other with a smile.
"Well ..um...Mutt "
He didnt really find that name fitting, for to him it was more of an insult than a name.
"we have something in common, we're both crossbreeds, im a bordercollie grey wolf mix."
He stood proud, although his markings were far more complicated than mutt's were.

Mutt nodded and after lowering his head to lick mud off his own paws lifted it once more to say "Interesting, I thought you might have also been part border collie" he said.
He then licked his paws again and finally they were clean enough to see what color they were, that was good enough for him, he hated the taste of mud. He smiled mudd still covering the tip of his tounge though he didn't seem to notice and if he had he didn't care.
"Heh, I'm a pure bred mutt" he joked "Anyway I come from a human village hence being named Mutt, I suffer from memory loss and have no idea about anything that happened up until I was one and a half"
He hated to explain it all, but he felt he had to, it couldn't be normal to be called 'Mutt' afterall but he remembered when he had wandered the streets of the villages humans yelling 'Get away from here you mutt!' Or the human who lived on the farm who owned the dog he had once had a huge crush on 'Go on, shoo! You stupid mutt!'. The female he had the crush on thought he was rather cute and though she didn't like everyone calling him a Mutt she agreed it was funny that everyone knew his name even if they hadn't met him.

Kal felt inclinded that he also had to breifly explain himself as well.
"um..well, im a wondering dog out looking for my father who murdered my mother and gave me all of my scars and is the reason im blind in one eye"
He smiled as he said this, his voice still calm and smooth but there was a slight hint of annoyance in his posture
(sorry its so short >.< im rping in three other windows too)

"Sounds like he was a real bastard, I wouldn't know much about that. No idea who my family are, sometimes I glad I don't have one" he said and closed his eyes.
Inside his head were the dogs he'd known back in the village the love of his life, his friends thoose who had told him to go smash his head into the nearest rock. Not to mention the ones who just never took any notice of him what-so-ever. His head always hurt when he tried to think back, it bothered him alot and he soon opened his eyes back on reality.
He looked at Kalsyfer and took some notice that he was blind in one eye, and was for once glad he had use of both his own. You never really knew what you had until it was gone. In the past he had met a deaf cat but that was a completely different story, she had talked loudly and never responded to a sound he made.
Then there was a fox he had met who had only three legs and he had thought she was wierd and teased her once telling her to play chasey with him. He know felt terrible for doing that but eventually she had chased him and they both wound up laughing like crazy at eachover when they both tripped over and tumbled around trying to untangle themselves from eachovers legs.

Kal shivered slightly and shook himself.
"come on, its chilly here, lets go somewhere more warm...i think there's a cave up a head."
He said as he strode past mutt, showing his left side where there was a huge x shaped scar on his shoulder and there was barely anthing left of his left ear. As he walked Mutt could notice that Kal didnt hold his head straight but had it slightly tilted to the right so he could see better.
His slim body glided effortlessly over the ground beneath him. He strode as if he were a mere spirit. Bringing up his past made him think back when he rembered his mother being alive. How he missed her. His ears slightly dropped as the thought of her bright smile and cheerfull laugh came to his mind. His tail also went limp behind him.

Mutt noticed all this and shook his head it was sad that things like that always happened to the best of dogs. He remembered alot of dogs he had seen dieing in the street one time, they had been starved and left there to die. And no one bothered to help them, it had been winter and it was everydog for themselves he remembered being in a foul modd and approaching one and looking down at him, 'You know by the end of winter you'l be dead' he had told him to recieve the reply 'If you have no heart then you are already dead. We live and we die it's a part of life'.
Mutt had simply looked at him and then walked away hearing a call from behind him 'dead dog walking'. This had angered him but he had been grateful to come back in the next week to find his body stiff and frozen. He had however felt sick that he had said something like that to him. He had been a kind dog once in his life, and he was only younge. He now just wished it had been him lying there and not the dog that had really died there in the cold.
As he followed Kal, it became clearer then ever that Mutt was still young and rather stupid at times, but not nearly as stupid as he was when he lived in that village. He sighed and continued walking after Kal his tail hanging limply and his ears down.

He sniffed out the entrance to the cave, although it was higher up from the ground than he had anticipated, he was agile enought to simply bound to it with out a problem. His handicap never really seemed to affect him. He stood on the ledge and looked down at Mutt.
"you commin kiddo?"
He smiled once again thinking that he finally found another dog for company, he had been alone for so long he really missed the presence of another dog.
"you hungry by any chance?"
He called down to him while he looked around to see if there was any kind of plant life or rotting corpse.

OOC: sorry it's so short, I have no idea what to post BIC: Mutt looked up at him "Rather" he called before leaping up himself.
He seemed to make the jump with no problem but it had been hard for him to do so, he was definately better at swimming then jumping. He had grown up around water as far as he knew and had grown accustomed to it and loved to swim.
That was one thing he used to do at one of the farms at the village, swim in the dam until he was spotted and yelled at to go away. In his head he laughed it was rather fun to make humans angry sometimes but he had dopne too much once with the chicken thing, and that had messed up his whole life.

He strolled to another ledge and found a rather fresh rabit carcass. He picked it up shook most of the maggots out from it, although he thought that maggots tasted rather good, but he wasnt going to take the chance of grossing the other dog out.
"i found ya something"
He lept down from the ledge and plopped the dead rabit in front of Mutt.
"bon appittte"
He sat down and smiled at him.
(OOC: i gotta go for tonight ^_^ maybe we can continue this tomorrow sometime?)
