You guys were making a big deal about his proceedure, going on about body mutilation, and in the end we are the same as before, or in my case, better. Hutch says.
Whats a few ornaments when I don't feel like I'm being crushed in by walls every hour? Hutch asked. And for Oreo, he'd be back out in the woods or with some female he barely knows. Hutch replied.

"Yeah," Tesla said from the edge of the group, "Enough of that kind of talk..." his ears were splayed nervously, suddenly feeling a little claustrophobic

"wait , hold on just one second , "body mutilation" ? I'm never said anything about it . The whole thing was because I felt that Oreo should at least know about what was about to happen to him , and make the decision himself . Despite what your "owner" may have taught you , Hutch , Oreo here , just like every single other "pets" , is not an object , a thing for humans to simply own and do whatever they like without consequences , he is a living creature , it is his body , what they were gonna do to him isn't gonna affect any of those humans , it is going to affect him and his life , therefore , he should be the one to decide whether or not to go through with that . And may I remind you that the moment Oreo decided , though under a lot of pressure , I dropped that subject completely until now , as I have no right , nor do I have any intention of interfering with his personal matter . So , get your facts straight , Mister ex-reporter !" Nadia growled at Hutch , losing almost all of her self control , until she heard one of the others spoke up

".......*sigh*.......Sorry guys , I just...sorry Oreo , I didn't mean to yell , it was just a little bit unexpected and all , the way you said that , but yeah.......you're right , Telsa , was it ? It's been weeks since the last time I met everyone like this , we shouldn't be talking about those unhappy stuff , so let's just drop it. Ok ? *sigh*........now you guys can just , help each other out with these stuff , you guys seems to be much more knowledgeable about this whole historical artifact thing than I am anyway . Imma......go here , a little bit" She said , wandering off into one of the dark tunnels

Kilo sighed. "Wait a moment, Miss Nadia," he said, climbing down Flynn and heading at his best speed towards the Vixen's exit point, "I shall accompany you, if you will?"

Leslie looked over to Tesla. "What is that fing for??"

"hm?"Nadia stopped , and gently picked Kilo up , letting him stand on her paw "Kilo ? Aren't you , you know , supposed to stay by Flynn's side or something ?"

Welsh Halfwit · Post by **Welsh Halfwit** » Mon Aug 18, 2014 8:37 am

"Possibly, possibly," Kilo relented, theatrically brushing a bit of imaginary dust off himself, "but he's there, surrounded by friends and here's you, going into tunnels alone. Who would you say might need me more, hmm?" He grinned at her. "Besides," he added, "if you wish to talk whilst down here, my girl, it does not make much sense to talk to yourself, hmm?"

Tesla's ears flicked back towards Leslie, followed by the turning of the rest of his body, "This?" He grunted, hefting his machine, "It digs. Through anything less that reinforced steel." the corgi's tone was a little boastful, "If it's Calibrated right, that is."

LovingCorgi · Post by **LovingCorgi** » Mon Aug 18, 2014 1:18 pm

"Brother Hutch? Why did you send Nadia away?" Koa asked curiously, with concern for Nadia's well being. He was unable to follow the conversation because of not being present in the mentioned past events.

Kousa smiled when was asked the question.
"It was always super strength. Thats what drove me to increase my own strength."
At that moment they were nearing the clover patch that had a rope tide to a tree and leading down a hole.

"...from the imprint.... um, yes... well, that." Kilo concluded, a little flummoxed.

"Heh. Something like that."

LovingCorgi wrote:"I like wearing my collar...kind of makes me feel like I have a home." Koa said, examining his collar.

"You do have a home, Koa, and you'll always have a home with us. Once a Porter, always a Porter." Flynn assures the corgi with a smile.

Flynn also has no idea what's happening. He hesitates for a few moments before following the mouse and the vixen.

I didn't send her away. She blew up, not me. Hutch replied. But these tunnels aren't big enough for an ex-journalist anymore, so I'm heading home. Hutch said. He then put his paws in his pockets and walked back to the stairs/ladder.

Welsh Halfwit · Post by **Welsh Halfwit** » Mon Aug 18, 2014 3:12 pm

"Aww," Leslie said, his ears bending with a bit of sorrow. "Why'z that, Mister Hutch?" Despite his concern he still watched Tesla in hopes he'd switch the machine on.

Post by **Hlaoroo** » Mon Aug 18, 2014 3:13 pm

"Hutch, wait! They didn't mean that! Don't go! We love having you around!"

MrNeonShot · Post by **MrNeonShot** » Mon Aug 18, 2014 3:26 pm

Hutch continued walking.
Christopher Robin probably wants decorations in the shop anyways, so I should go help. Hutch said.

LovingCorgi · Post by **LovingCorgi** » Mon Aug 18, 2014 4:17 pm

Koa runs after hutch and stops in front of him.
"Wait. I didn't mean to offend you, please don't be mad and leave....I'm sorry" Koa said with a small amount of tears under his eyes and unintentionally given the puppy dog face.

MrNeonShot · Post by **MrNeonShot** » Mon Aug 18, 2014 6:13 pm

Hutch looked down at Koa before sitting on the steps.
She left... I don't know why, but she left me here. Hutch said. Now I'm trying to get used to making new friends and being a good dog, but... My best friend is gone... Hutch said, sinking into the jacket with head down.

Super strength, huh? Sounds really cool! Blizzard remarked with a smile.

"it's....not much to talk about , really " Nadia sighed "When I was at the clinic , we discovered that the humans decided that they want to have Oreo neutered , or his owner would have to either let him go , or turn him over to the "animal control" , stupid , arrogant name , just saying . Anyway , well , at first Oreo didn't want to , so I had an argument with both the vet and his owner , since I feel that it's not right to not letting him voice his own decision in this matter . Meanwhile , that guy , Hutch , tried to convince Oreo that it's fine to have it done , and even decided to has it done himself , so the little skunk wouldn't be afraid of it.....I'm just gonna leave out how I think about it , since like I said , it's his body , my opinion doesn't matter anyway . So in the end , Oreo decided that he would rather has it done and gets to stay with his owner than the alternative , so I just drop it .

*sigh* I may have been a little harsh about it just now , but I'm sorry , since when was it a crime to fight against what you think is wrong ? And "body mutilation" ? Maybe the humans taught him that kind of made up , accusing , **** **** way of wording things when he became a reporter , I wouldn't be surprise if it was the case and if it is then I admit it's not his fault , since there are a ton of news and papers out there that do that sort of things . But that kind of bending the truth is unacceptable to me , if he said that I was overreacting , stubborn , or even called me stupid for not caring about the "benefits" that neutering Oreo would bring him and putting what nature intended him to have above it instead , then fine , that's his opinion , I don't care , and in the end , it is done already, and they are both happy with it, so no harm done anyway . And I admit , I was raging very hard at the time , even going on about how Oreo would've missed the opportunity of having a family of his own should he meets a female skunk who he loves after this is done , among other things , which in general could be summed up as me looking way too deep into that , but my goodness , at least use that and stay as close to the truth as you can , "body mutilation" ? Do I look like the sort of fox to talk about that sort of things ?"

Nadia sighed , sitting down with her back leaning against the wall of the cavern "Sorry Flynn for bashing on humans like that , I know not all humans are bad , and at least most of the people here are nice and all , it's just that I'm still biased against humans in general , I know it's not fair , but I can't really help it . Same with the argument with Hutch too , this was the first after a while I got to meet you guys , so I tried to have fun with you all , but the anger just came out when he said what he said , so.....guess I ruined the day for everyone now huh ?"

LovingCorgi · Post by **LovingCorgi** » Tue Aug 19, 2014 12:27 am

Koa sat down next to hutch.
"I don't know who exactly your talking about, but I thought we were friends... in fact I trust you so much, that like Flynn, your a brother I wish I had along time ago."
At that moment Koa hugged hutch, and buried his head against his coat, and tears forming under his eyes.
"so please... don't leave...I don't like to see others sad, especially someone as important as you."

Welsh Halfwit · Post by **Welsh Halfwit** » Tue Aug 19, 2014 12:42 am

Kilo sighed. "I will not say you are foolish, my dear," he said, "but sometimes our tempers can get the better of us, can they not? WHY can they not see my side? WHY can they not see I am right? WHY can they not see I am simply looking out for what I think is best for them? WHY are they looking looking at me like that? Am I shouting?" Kilo stepped around on the hand for a few steps before returning his gaze to Nadia. "But at least there are benefits, hmm? Oh, believe me, I know where you are coming from, my girl. I was a grandfather so I should, hmm? But, in some cases... I look at that young Skunk and I do not believe he would have lived long on his own, natural selection and all that. A perfectly beautiful attitude and personality translates to nothing against the claws of a predator, after all, hmm? What he has done is a compromise. He compromised the future he might never have had in return for the safety of the life he has, hmm? You see? I would not have done it as it would not have been right for me - or you, of course - or several others I have met over the years who do not have the luxuries the Humans take for granted - warmth, light, security - but it is, seemingly, right for some, hmm?" Kilo coughed. "I talk too much. As for spoiling the day? Expressing your concerns should never spoil a day, my dear."

MrNeonShot · Post by **MrNeonShot** » Tue Aug 19, 2014 12:46 am

Hutch felt Koa hug him, so he hugged him back.
My sister left to join the army as a translator. I sometimes wonder if she was getting away from me by joining, and I don't know why. All I do know is that I'm just an ex-journalist without her. Hutch explained. Nadia just reminded me about it, thats all.
Hutch rested his chin on Koa's head.

Roarin · Post by **Roarin** » Tue Aug 19, 2014 1:50 am

Zanna walked over to the fox and put a reassuring hand on her shoulder. She didn't really know Nadia that well, but knew she shouldn't have to feel sad.
"My Ma says that you should always talk about what you feel. That way you don't explode and spill everything all over the places at once. Like a cola that gets shaken up too much with a cap that's screwed on too tight."

Keeshah · Post by **Keeshah** » Tue Aug 19, 2014 1:54 am

Oreo clutches Doc's tail in his paws, stroking it nervously as Nada storms off in one direction.
An Hutch storms off in the other..
The young skunk looks up at the big huge wolf.
Ummm What do i do now??
Everyone is mad now..

Ryyn suddenly popped out from behind Flynn, "Don't worry Nadia," he said gently, "You didn't ruin the day." He sat down next to her and patted her on the shoulder. "My day was ruined from when I first woke up. You've actually made it better."

Elliot giggles and frolics through the clover patch. " I didn't know we had a clover patch in Richmond Acres."

LovingCorgi · Post by **LovingCorgi** » Tue Aug 19, 2014 9:43 pm

"But you said yourself that you were still a journalist. I guess now is a time to tell you what I once heard along time ago. Dilly Dally Shilly Shally. It means your clinging to the past and not doing things you need to be doing now." Koa said trying to cheer up Hutch.

"Super strength would be cool, but unfortunately there's no way i can get it." As she moved the clover patch covering the hole she prepares the rope.
"Now this is not a straight climb down it twists and turns so don't expect to Go down quickly. I'll go down first then you two follow."

MrNeonShot · Post by **MrNeonShot** » Tue Aug 19, 2014 10:24 pm

I used to be a journalist. Now I'm a reporter... Not any flashy stories like before, but I'm still a reporter. I still miss her, though. Hutch said.

Maybe with enough training, you could! Blizzard replied.

LovingCorgi · Post by **LovingCorgi** » Tue Aug 19, 2014 10:46 pm

"Well I see both as the same thing and I miss my..." Koa then remembers something that he did not want to remember.
"...my... mother, but you don't see that effecting me."

"It's not that easy hun..." Kousa said as she lowered herself into the hole.

MrNeonShot · Post by **MrNeonShot** » Tue Aug 19, 2014 11:43 pm

Yeah... I wish I was as strong as you, Koa. Hutch said.

Then I guess you better get started~! Blizzard said with a smile.

Kousa ears were ringing as she was already down the hole when Elliot yelled.
"Ow... That hurt, please don't do that again." Kousa yelled back making it worse on her ears.

Koa frowned. Hutch didn't know what happens when Koa was separated from his bag, but then again neither did Koa. He only understood that things happens that he doesn't remeber happening.
"I wouldn't say I'm strong..."

MrNeonShot · Post by **MrNeonShot** » Wed Aug 20, 2014 11:07 am

Hutch gave Koa another hug before standing.
Well, I'd like to try heading down the original path I was supposed to go down... Hutch said.

Blizzard slowly began making his way down the turning hole.
How long is this tunnel? Blizzard asked quietly.

Mercury's ears swiveled towards the sound and his head followed, "Hello?" He called back

Post by **Hlaoroo** » Wed Aug 20, 2014 1:04 pm

"It's okay, Nadia. I do understand where you're coming from. In a way, I'm biased against foxes in the same way you are humans. Er... No offence intended. Er... Where was I going with this? Oh yeah. I understand being passionate about something and also being biased against it due to past hurts. I know what it's like so if y-"
As Ryyn talks behind him, Flynn, startled, instinctively bolts away from the sound until his brain registers what, or rather who it is. Sheepishly, he returns to the group, his heart pounding.
"Heh. S-sorry. I didn't realise you were there, Ryyn. But yeah. Kilo's right too, as always. There's always two sides to every coin."

"I think it's best we wait here, Oreo, and let everyone calm down." Piper answers the skunk.
"Shall I play a tune while we wait?" she queries, unhooking the pipes from her collar.

LovingCorgi · Post by **LovingCorgi** » Wed Aug 20, 2014 2:29 pm

"It's not much longer, just takes awhile because of how curvy it is. Did you hear someone yell?"

Koa smile when he saw hutch stand up.
"Then why don't we both go down that path?"

MrNeonShot · Post by **MrNeonShot** » Wed Aug 20, 2014 2:50 pm

We better tell Flynn we're going so he doesn't get worried. Hutch replied. He then made his way back to the group of pets.
Hey, me and Koa are going to head down the other tunnel. Can you guys tell Flynn where we're going? Hutch asked when he saw Flynn was gone.

Blizzard made his way down to Kousa and waited for Elliot.

Oreo turns his little rounded ears about to focus in on the sound. turning around to look behind him.
That sounds like it is coming from behind us. has anyone gone down this tunnel behind us?

Roarin wrote:"HHHHEEEELLLOOOOOOOOOOOO~". Zanna shamelessly responded back.

Oreo flattens down his ears, as the husky howls back at the echo's in the dark tunnel.
Oww now my ears are ringing.

Hlaoroo wrote:"I think it's best we wait here, Oreo, and let everyone calm down." Piper answers the skunk.

Maybe that would be best..
Looking up at Doc, but the wolf has gone lost in his own thoughts again.
After a moment, Oreo slips off down into the dark echoing tunnel, to go find who is howling at the other end.
better to go find them, and bring them back to the group. than just standing around while everyone was snarling at each other, and waiting for things to calm down.
Running his hand along the wall to find his way in the darkness of the tunnel, as he still hasn't equipped himself with a light source.

MrNeonShot wrote:Blizzard made his way down to Kousa and waited for Elliot.

Oreo could now see the light at the end of the tunnel, and pets climbing down into the tunnel..
Oreo hurries his pace, now that he can see a bit better in the gloom of the dark tunnel..
Hey there! we all are GlUrrrrk!!As the skunk suddenly encounters something across his path..hearing tick tick tick tick, as something tightens about his foot! Yanking him off his feet, sending him face planting into the tunnel floor.
The young skunk panics!! tugging, pulling and thrashing at the thing that has him by his ankle, only to be rewarded with 2 more tick's.. tightening the wire loop, making his footpaw ache'.

(edit) made required change to a foot snare.

Blizzard heard the skunk, but then the *tick tick tick tick*. He curiously walked to it to see the skunk caught in a trap!
Hey, sweety, whats your name? Blizzard asks. Your going to have to stay calm for me, okay?

"heh...thanks guys , that's very nice from everyone" Nadia smiled a little bit "Still though , what happened back then could've gone better , but ah well , guess we should go back to the other huh ? Flynn , you ok ?"
