Zuberi was off on his own away from the pack. He enjoyed venturing out into the unknown. He was running through the open fields all on his own with a wonderful carefree feeling. With his new found free feeling Zuberi really let loose and ran as fast as he could. Which admittedly wasn't that fast, his legs were still little after all.

After running for quite sometime Zuberi stopped to catch his breath. He had really enjoyed his run. And now he stopped and looked around. He wasn't use to seeing all the open space without others crowding it. The pack was doing well, thriving there were always others around to talk to and hang out with. And of course his den was always crowded, he lived there with his mom and seven siblings (four brothers and three sisters). Zuberi was the eldest, which was another reason he liked his freedom today. He didn't have a father and as a result he felt that it was his job to be in charge.

As Zuberi was thinking to himself and his family something caught his eye. It was another dog, off in the distance still but there none the less. He wondered if the other dog would see him or want to hang out with him. Now that Zuberi was free of the pack he thought it would be fun to have a little adventure today before heading home. He wagged his tail thinking of the possibilities.

Though his silhouette might be still, the little wild dog was quiverring with curiosity and excitement. Before him the rolling hills fell away quite suddenly into the open plains where a huge herd of water buffalo was currently making its dusty way to new feeding grounds. The thunder of hooves and the great plumes of dust... it was all so enticing. What could he find there? Were there little buffalo he could dance with -or! Or maybe even other wild dogs?

The larger prey of the savannah tended to ignore his kind for they proved to be of little threat, unless they ran in a pack and it afforded Chimalli the opportunity to run wild and free. After all, why not weave between a giraffe's legs if you wanted to? They always had such silly things to say at that.

What would the buffalo say?

Zuberi let his curiosity over take him and he decided to approach the other dog. As he approached he saw that the other dog was watching a heard of buffalo. Zuberi found this odd, it wasn't like this young dog such as he could catch any of these, not by himself any way.

"Hi there" Zuberi said as he finally made it to the other dogs side. "What are you doing? You know you wont be able to take one of those down by yourself." Zuberi thought the other little dog was funny to think such a thing was possible, none the less Zuberi took immediate liking. This other dog must be daring!

Chimalli nearly jumped out of his skin at the other's remark and blinked, spinning to face the voice. "I don't want to! I mean... I know I can't. But... but..." He looked Zuberi over and chuckled, "Haven't you ever run with the prey before? The pounding hooves, the dust... the glee!" He quivvered at that and grinned from ear to ear, "Don't get stepped on though!"

Zuberi looked at the other dog, he was intrigued, he had never thought about running with prey before, in all honesty he had never really had to hunt before at all besides the odd bug he caught, there were people in the pack that took care of that sort of thing. He thought the other dog was bold, kind of odd but bold none the less. Looking down at the pack of buffalo Zuberi tried to imagine himself running through them, he was tiny in comparison to most of them, one misplaced step and he could be a pancake.

"Do you run with the prey often?" Zuberi asked the other dog, he wanted to try it but he was afraid of getting hurt. " Aren't you afraid of getting hurt, have you ever got hurt." The more Zuberi asked questions the more excited he got about the activity, he just needed to get more information before he committed to running.

"Uhm.... no. But I want to! The giraffes are nice." He nodded, ears still perked, "But Buffalo are supposed to be mean. More challenge~ They'll try to step on you."

He blinked, and walked around to Zuberi's side, laughing, "Yeah, once. A giraffe accidently lifted me on a hoof and sent me rolling. I was achey for daaaays." To demonstrate the point, he suddenly dipped into a play-bow and knocked against the other, hoping to tip him over. "But I was okay~ It was such a rush!"

Zuberi toppled slightly with the shove that the other dog had given him. He thought about running with this dog threw the dangerous Buffalo, his mom would kill him if she ever found out, and how would he explain if he got hurt.

Embarrassed slightly Zuberi realized he didn't know the other dogs name, "Er, what was your name again?" He smiled at the other dog, he hoped he didn't think he was rude for not asking sooner.

"Chimalli~" He replied happily, tail wagging, "What's yours? Want to see if we can't get close to them? Sneak up like a lion? Maybe run like a cheetah?"

He paused and glanced around conspiratorially, "And even race one? The little ones like to play, I think - look at them. They always run and jump and stuff. Think we can get one to race us?"

Zuberi glanced down at the buffalo thinking about what he might agree to do. "My name? My name is Zuberi-sikio, or Zuberi for short, or Strongear around the pack... depends who you ask really."

He looked down towards the buffalo again, " I don't know how to sneak like a lion, or run like a cheetah. I don't really know much about anything other then wild dogs." As much as Zuberi liked to learn about the world outside of his pack, he hadn't manage to learn much about any other creatures. He smiled at Chimalli perhaps he would teach him.

Looking down at the buffalo he thought about running with them again, "I think it would be a good idea if maybe we only played with the babies... the adults are...... uh... so... big." Zuberi wanted to go have this adventure, but he was afraid of getting hurt.

"Strongear?" He blinked, head tilting to the side, "Can you lift rocks with your ears? I can't! Show me!" Bouncing, the young wild dog circled his new friend, eagerly awaiting this show of strength.

"You don't have to know. Just try! Belly on the ground, ears back, and sneak... one paw before the other. Like this." Demonstrating, or at least attempting to, Chimalli showed Zuberi his rendition of a lion's stalking techniques. He thought himself impressive, having 'figured' it out. You got in close, wiggled your bum, and surged forward... at which point he pounced Zuberi. "See? Just like that! Don't forget - one paw before the other and tail wiggle. Very important, I think."

"Just the babieees?" Chimalli groaned, "That's all I play with." Frowning, he sat back and moped, "But... they're most willing to run, too. Mn... you could practice your sneaking on them! Let's do that!" Never one to be down for very long, the energetic wild dog bobbed his head in the direction of the buffalo.

Zuberi stood watching after Chimalli, his twitched his ears slightly. No one had ever taken his name so literally, most took it the way it was suppose to be, he had good hearing... but he decided he liked the idea of being able to lift rocks with his ears better, he wished it was true.

As Chimalli got closer to the to the buffalo Zuberi decided to practice his sneaking once before running to catch up on him.... He shrank down to the ground so that his belly was touching it, and placed his ears back. Then slowly but surely he placed one paw in front of the other, trying to make sure he duplicate exactly what he had seen Chimalli do. Then he added in the ever important bum shake before he pounced on the small stone that had been his target. Popping back up Zuberi felt somewhat confident in his ability to sneak... although in actuality he looked quite ridiculous.

Not wanting to miss out on any fun he raced after Chimalli.... "Wait up" he panted not wanting to face the buffalo on his own, he much rather have Chimalli close by his side, after all he had more experience with this then Zuberi did. Zuberi paused just behind a rock that the buffalo were near, "Wait OK I think we should plan which one to go for first... just to uh get started." Zuberi was nervous about running out all on his own.

He glanced around the back his eyes rapidly scanning for the smallest buffalo possible... he spotted the young one, not fair from where he was hidden "OK I got it, lets go for that little one over there on the right.... We can sneak up on him together." Zuberi's tail wagged frantically as his excitement began to grow. He crouched low to the ground and got ready to attempt his first sneak attack.

Chimalli looked on as the other pup practiced, nodding with much approval. That bum shake would guarantee a successful hunt, that was for sure! "Just like the lions!" He praised, grinning hugely.

"Which one...?" He blinked as he came to stand beside Zuberi, also scanning for a likely target. "That one?" Chimalli followed the other's gaze and nodded his agreement.

"Three.... two... one... let's go!" He didn't wait beyond mumbling one and slinked into the grass, figuring Zuberi would follow or flank. Paw before paw, tail wagging and excited, the nearby buffalo all noticed the pair of wild dog pups but paid the mischief makers no mind. They couldn't hurt a calf, and besides, they recognized the hyper little one who just liked to run and play.

Zuberi caught up to Chimalli's flank. He wasn't as observant as the other dog was, he hadn't noticed that the older buffalo had seen them and didn't mind their presents. As a result he was still rather nervous about sneaking up on the young buffalo. However the excitement drove him forward.

As the reached the young buffalo he was shaking with excitement, but he continued the practice movement. When he reached the the side of the buffalo he let Chimalli take the lead, he was happy to see that the buffalo enjoyed playing with them. It was even better to see that the adults didn't mind the two young ones playing with their young.

Zuberi let out a loud laugh, he was so happy to get out and play like this. It was an awesome adventure. He ran wildly around playing with all the young buffalo.

A few times, the adults would swagger and posture if the pups got too rough, scaring Chimalli off for a moment but he played for hours alongside his new friend. This was terribly enjoyable!

The calves would run and buck and cry out in surprise whenever they mock-pounced them, the only danger coming from the sharp, flashing hooves that could cut them if they were hit.

Eventually, though, the sun began to dip towards the horizon and Chimalli's seemingly endless energy was beginning to flag. "Zuberi!" He called, trotting up to the other, "It's almost night! The lions hunt now.... we should go. My family's waiting and yours probably is too."

He grinned from ear to ear, "But! Meet again? This was so much fun~"

Zuberi turned back towards Chimalli, looking up at the sky as he went, Chimalli was right the sun was getting low. It wasn't that Zuberi was afraid of the lions coming hunting, he was more afraid that he wouldn't make it back to the pack for his mother woke up.... he wasn't really suppose to leave the pack lands, it was evern worse that he left during the day when the heat was so bad, and there was less pack members on patrol.

"I had a lot of fun with you Chimalli, we should play again soon." Zuberi smiled at his new friend before he ran off towards his home land, he hoped he could slip back in before his mothers or siblings woke up.
