When All Else Fails

Leo trotted along the thick river's edge, an ever present smile lingering on his lips. There was very little that could get the russet and ivory man down, especially on such a warm, sunny day. As far as he knew his family was fine and well, he had managed to slowly grow his short list of friends here in Alacritis, he was as well fed as a loner could be. Things were good in the young man's life. Thinking of food made his stomach growl and he remembered that he hadn't eaten yet that day, having decided to go out and venture away from The Range for a while this morning instead of hunting. He slowed down and peered at the river. He wasn't entirely familiar with fishing, but he had done it once or twice and had seen it done a few more times than that. Perhaps he could manage it. He carefully stepped into a shallower area of the river, feeling the water run past him and around his legs. Wading his way in till the water reached his knees he waited till finally a fish swam near him. A few failed attempts and some clumsy splashing later he finally had a fish caught in his jaws and an laying on the shore behind him. He made his way back to the shore triumphantly and shook off each of his paws to get as much of the water off of his legs as possible. Finally he would carefully scoop the second fish up into his jaws so he could continue on his way down along the bank of the river, hoping to find a shady tree to each his lunch under. It wasn't more than a couple dozen feet before he spotted a small, pale form laying on the bank, a noticeable distance between the pup and the water, waving her forepaw sadly like the was beckoning the river closer. Curious, and maybe a bit concerned, he moved toward her, noticing her lack of weight the closer he got. He slowed to a stop a couple of feet from her, setting down his catches so he could free up his jaws. He smiled, his sapphire gaze looking at the pup curiously. "Hey there." He glanced down at the fish at his paws and back to the pup. "Would you like a fish? I have an extra." |
