my, what big flippers you have!

Like Scald, Rexx was utterly bored of the ship. After a while, the novelty on being aboard the thing had worn off, revealing it was really little more than a wooden boat on the water. It just wasn't that fun to run around on anymore - so when it was said that the pups could explore the beach again, considering it safe, the burly boy wasted no time hopping off the ship with his brother, eagerly loping behind him with large toes splaying with each wide gait. He was growing - taller, heavier, bigger in general. Tusks were nearly reaching their full splendor, curled upwards and slightly behind in the most formidable manner. His crystal spikes elongated, now more dangerously sharp and clean-edged than ever. He just didn't realize he'd have to use them today. He and Scald were trying to find seashells, which he was more than happy to do. As his attention was directed by Scald to examine a broken conch in the sand, a strange braying noise interrupted them. Like his sibling, Rexx tilted his head at the strangest sight - a furless blob with beady eyes and flippers was honking about the beach, hopping about less than gracefully. He frowned. What the hell was it - some strange fish-dog he had yet to learn of? A lost deep sea creature? He still wasted no time as Scald rushed towards it, recognizing that it was strange and unwelcome. "We'll make sure it regrets trespassing on our beach!" Rexx barked, brow furrowed as he saw Scald snap at one of its strange flippers. The creature honked in alarm this time, trying to writhe its way away from the quilled boy and slap the empty air in some feeble effort to defend itself. Oh, that wouldn't do. With a snort, the tusked boy aimed to ram his thick skull into the seal's side, forcefully pushing it towards the water's edge. Still, the creature relented despite its sudden shove, snapping its jaws at him to reveal its sharp teeth. Next time the seal tried anything, it was getting the full brunt of his tusks. He'd clearly gotten it with the tips, noticing the punctures on its side welling with blood. |
