The blue male watched the sky reflected on the small lake, the moon wavering in it's depths. For a few moments, it seemed like he could just reach in and take the moon for his own. But the rationalist in Jeuri told him to stop such nonsense thoughts.
As usual, Jeuri listened to this and wrnehced his eyes from the lake. He sighed and watched the ground, digging a bit in the dirt with one foot. Hem was so happy for his cosuin, but at the same time the new cubs made him yearn so badly for some of his own. He wondered if he would ever have a family to call his own. He longed to protect them, love them and share memories, good and bad.
Another sigh escaped the dog as he once again watched the stars, his mind travelling everywhere and nowhere.

On a small rock a female wild dog sat and thought how she should solve her problem. There was a big puddle of mud surrounding the rock and the female would do anything to avoid stepping in it. Her pelt was pure white, with a couple of pink splotches here and there. Her fur was in perfect condition, and she knew that, because she groomed it multiple times a day. But mud on it? God forbid, that would be awful!
Maijani sat still on her rock and a sighed. What should she do? If she had never fallen asleep here in the first place this wouldn't have happened. Maijani began wondering how she had done to climb the rock. Wasn't there a way up without touching any mud? She turned around and looked, but couldn't see anything. The leaf she had used earlier to use as a path across the mud must have disappeared. Oh well, Maijani thought to herself. I'll just sit here and think then.

Jeuri's keen nose caught the scent of another wild dog, someone definitely not in his pack. He new he was on the outskirts of his packs territory, and he wondered what kind of dog would come so close to a pack as large as theirs. Sure, it was mostly made up of cubs now, but when there were cubs around the females were aways much more protective. As was he.
The big dog strode over to the scent of the female, he was glad she was a girl. Females usually meant no harm. As his pink gaze fell upon her, he couldn't help but notice that their colors were exactly opposite. Blue eyes, pink pelt, pink eyes, blue pelt. A small smile spread across his face as he watched her circling on top of the rock.
"Um, miss? Do you need some help?" He asked, wondering why she ddn't just jump down from the rock.

When Maijani heard the males voice she spun around quickly to see who was there. A couple of steps away a male with a pelt looking like the opposite of her own was standing looking at her. "I seem to have a bit of a problem, yes. But I dont want any help. I need to figure this out by myself." She looked down on the mud and sighed. "It's that filthy mud I'm not very fond of. I can't get down without touching it. Unless I jump of course, but then I could strain a muscle."
Maijani frowned, but then quickly stopped. She then looked like she was disgusted by something, and she was. Frowning could give her wrinkles and she would hate that! Deciding she was too tired to try and figure this out any more, she sat down and looked at the male again. "Ok, you can help me now." She gave him a small smile.

Jeuri raised a brow at her, and looked down at the mud as she once agan resumed her circling. "You could always wait until tomorrow when the sun dries it nd makes it sand again." He said with a grin. At first he didn't think this dog was serious, what was so bad about mud? He took note of how clean she was, and figured that she was just very vain.
At her last comment he raised a brow agin. "Oh can I now?" He chuckled and trotted over to her, stepping in the mud to get closer to the rock. "Climb down on top of me and hop to the grass then."

"Very funny, mister." Maijani looked at him and the smile disappeared. "I'm a lady in trouble, you know. This is serious!" She snorted.
Maijani looked at Jeuri as he stepped right through the mud and offered his help. His pelt was not as clean as she had hoped, but she swallowed and decided she should accept his help. Otherwise she would probably sit there all night trying to think of a way to get down. She gently put her paws on him before taking a leap over the mud, the muscles on her slender body showing as they were doing their job.
She landed a bit away from the mud and looked down at her fur to assure herself that she was in fact still clean. She turned her attention towards Jeuri again. "Thank you for your help, sir. I am in great dept to you." Maijani gave him a warm smile. "I don't believe we have been introduced though."

Jeuri was surprised at how light she was as she leapt off the rock. He was just as surprised at the way she spoke to him. So... refined, and lady-like. He hardly ever heard creatures talk like that.
Bowing his head to her, he returned the smile happily. "I am called Jeuri." He said, shaking off the mud from his paw, making sure he didn't splatter her with it. "And you are?"

Maijani watched Jeuri bow and smiled back at him. "I'm pleased to meet you, Jeuri. I am Maijani." she said and laughed silently. "I'm from a pack far, far away. But I left it to find myself a mate." Maijani's expression switched and sadness spread across her face instead. "I have had no luck in completing my task though." She gently stroke a straw of grass with her paw after speaking, acting like the grass was the most important thing around right now. But the only reason she did it was because she was ashamed and didn't want Jeuri to see that.
When Maijani looked up at Jeuri again she could hear her own stomach rumble. "I apologize!" she said while her cheeks began to blush. "It's just that I'm in great need of something to eat." Maijani smiled and began thinking. Perhaps this male would like to join her for dinner? She looked at him and decided it would be a good idea to ask atleast. "Would you like to accompany me for some dinner? I would be very pleased to have you as my company."

How polite she was! Jeuri was still a bit rattled by the way she spoke, though he found it rather charming at the same time. As she began to speak of mates though, he raised a brow. Why bring that up so suddenly? He pushed the thought away as her stomach began to growl, and he chuckled softly.
"I would love to accompany you, Maijani." He said with a smile. Even though she was a bit out of the ordinary, Jeuri knew the ordinary had become a bit boring. Maybe she could spice up his day a bit.
"What would you like to et?" He asked, standing. "There's a small herd of zebra not far from here, though if you prefer some smller prey there's a few hres and mice raoming about."

"Swell" Maijani said back and returnd the smile. "I'm not in the mood for zebras though. I don't feel like trying to catch something with annoying stripes on their sides." Maijani laughed and continued. "A hare would not be wrong right now though." She licked her lips and her stomach rumbled again. "Shall we? I don't know the area around here too well, I'm afraid. I hope you don't mind showing me the way?"

Jeuri smiled and nodded. "No problem." He stood and motioned her to follow him. His feet were almost completely silent as he walked.
As the two made their way through the lands, Jeuri kept his eyes open to try and find a hare. He suddenly stopped walking and put paw in front of her to stop her as well, not realizing his paw was very muddy and he had touched her.
"Look." He whsipered, motioning towrds a small hare that was nibbling on some grass not far from them. It hadn't yet seen the two dogs, but Jeuri knew by experience that his bright coat did not make it easy to hide, even at night.
"Stay here." He said with a smile, as he crouched down to the ground. His tail swayed back and forth behind him as he began to crawl over to it. He suddenly sprang up from the grass and tackled the small creature, which sqeuaked only once before it was dead. Jeuri trotted over to her and set it down in front of her. "Just because we have to kill, doesn't mean we have to inflict a lot pain." He said, smiling softly at the small hare beneath him.

Maijani followed Jeuri and admired the surroundings in the meantime. She looked back at him many times though, because she didn't want to lose him and that could have been easy to do since he walked so silently.
Feeling a paw against her all of a sudden Maijani stopped and looked down at it, realizing Jeuri's dirty paw had touched her. She wanted to shriek, but kept it inside her instead. She immediately sat down and began grooming herself, trying to make her fur spotless again, except for the pink ones she already had. She noticed Jeuri crawl away but instead of helping him hunt she sat there, cleaning herself until he got back.
Once Jeuri got back she smiled at him. "Sweet of you to make the death a quick one. And you have a nice hunting technique I might add." She laughed and gave him another smile, this one a bit warmer than the last.

Jeuri smiled a little back to her and shrugged. "Just my style." He said simply, and nudged the rabbit towards her. "Here, I think you need it more than I do. I already had some food today anyway." He said truthfully, he had eaten his own hare, and a field mosue, not more than three hours ago.
As he cleaned the blood from his maw, long with the dirt from his paws off, Jeuri couldn't help but notice she was spotless again. He smiled to himself. He hadn't really ever met anyone like this female, Maijani before. She was so proper, polite and clean. He lways thought of himself as a polite dog, but clean? Not to ny extent that she obviously went to.

Keeping her eyes on the hare she noticed it made her mouth water. She looked up at Jeuri. "Are you sure you do not want a bite as well? I will not be able to eat the whole hare by myself. Or, atleast I do not think I will." Maijani laughed softly and sat down next to the hare. She lowered her head to take a bite off it. The bite she took was small, then she lifted her head again and chewed with her mouth closed. She didn't eve have a drop of blood around her mouth! She kept taking more bites, feeling less hungry after each one.

Wow, Jeuri thought, She even eats politely. He smiled then, large one and he shook his head at her question. "No it's alright, you enjoy." He said, fascinated at how she ate. How could she manage to eat without getting blood on her mouth? He shook the thought off nd laid beside her, cleaning the blood off his own mouth. "So why are you here again?" He asked, glancing to her with his pink eyes. "To find a mate yes? What lead you here? There's not many dogs up here."
