Wow...it's been a while since I've made a thread..o_o
Nothing seemed more fun to a puppy than endless rolling hills of green. One could run forever in the tall grasses, playing hide and seek, or perhaps searching for a juicy bird or insect to feast apon. At least... that was Galden's peragative. He was a pup for fun, for adventure, for excitement. And there was a place none better than here to grant all his wishes.
Like a young snow hare bounding through the grasses was Galden, each bounce of his paws sending him flying into the air as if attempting to fly. His pink tounge lolled from the side of his jaws as he did so, the force of his speed sending it back against his cheek. In a full sprint now, he galloped like mad through the tall tendrils of grass, tiny paws gripping the ground and pushing forward, gripping the ground and pushing forward. This constant motion seemed so easy for the puppy, and he took full advantage of it.
For a few minutes Galden circled aimlessly, slowing his pace to a lope as he admired the beauty of the meadow, the sweet smell of salt filling his black nostrils. It was amazing, to say the least. Galden hadn't ever seen anything like it. Beats the smell of sweat and blood, oil and gas, if you asked Galden. But he had no intention of thinking of his cruel and unforgiving past. 'Twas time for fun!
Then, he saw it. It was a small orange butterfly that had perched atop a long blade of grass, causing it to tip slightly from the weight. Galden had stopped on a dime at the site, twitching his nostrils and lowering himself in the grass. Placing one paw ever so carefully in front of the other, he crept forward. The winged creature quickly noticed his presence, and fluttered away, leaving the discouraged pup to find yet another "thing" to stalk.
