Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Mhmm indeed it is" Rikku smiled as she stroked Xion with her hand.

Rikku laughed lightly "That tickles" She stroked Xion some more "Your fur is really soft" Rikku moved her hand so she was rubbing her finger behind Xions ear just slightly.

Taiko smiled at the two, then he heard whimpering and he stood up. He walked to his room and went in and looked at the dog on his bed. His bed sheets were soaked in the dog's blood. Taiko sat down on a part of the bed with little blood and rubbed the dog's head, "Don't move buddie... the more you move the more blood you'll loose..." the dog growled at him and bared its teeth. Taiko frowned and flicked the dogs nose, which was the wrong thing to do. The dog barked loudly and bit Taiko's hand. Taiko hit the dog, making it let his hand go and cursed under his breath. "Stupid mutt... First attacking my pet... then bites me when I'm trying to save him..." Taiko wanted more than nothing than to pull the dogs stomach open in anger for attacking Rikku. He looked down at his hand and sighed, happy to see it was just a couple of cuts, they weren't even bleeding. He sighed and got some new bandages and started to change the dog's bandages. When he was done he looked at his bed sheets and said, "This is going to take me weeks to clean... oh well..."

Taiko finished wrapping up the dog and smiled, "Now try to be nice doggy?" then when he tried to pat the dogs head, he tried to bit Taiko again but Taiko moved his hand away quickly. He walked over to Rikku and said, "Don't worry, all he did was give me a small bite... It didn't hurt that much." He reacher up to pat her head but stopped and pulled his hand back. "I should go take a shower... I'm covered in that dog's blood..."

Taiko closed his bedroom door and walked towards the shower. He looked back at Rikku and said, "Let the dog rest for now, ok?"

Taiko closed the restroom door and pulled his shirt off. He wrinkled his nose at the stink from the dog blood on his clothes. He stripped until he was down to his boxers, then put his clothes in a plastic bag and tied it up, planning to throw the clothes away when he finished his shower. Then he pulled off his boxers and stepped into the shower, and turned the hot water on.

Taiko finished his shower and dried his body off. Then he threw his clothes on and picked up the bag of bloody clothes and took them outside to the garbage. He walked back in and over to Rikku and Xion and smiled, "Ok, I feel better... So what about you two? You two ok?"
