Duke and Sky giggled quietly as the giant dog finished his story. Smiling, Duke asked, "So, how about you tell me your journey?" Licking his cheek, Sky replied, "Alright, but first, can you get me some fruit punch?" Wagging his tail, Duke jumped to his feet and headed off to grab a cup. Not even three seconds later, another dog brushed up against Sky.

"You're new," the stranger remarked, trying to nuzzle the husky's cheek. Backing away, Sky growled, "Indeed I am." Glancing at the dog, she could tell he was a pit bull. But for some reason, he appeared to have metal on him. As he grinned, she could see metal teeth in his mouth. His right eye never blinked and gleamed red. Meanwhile, a mischievous glint sparkled in his yellow left eye. He reached out to touch her paw. Thinking quickly, Sky raised her paw and whacked him.

Snarling, the pit bull muttered, "You're coming with me!" With that, he grabbed Sky's scruff and dragged her away. Unknown to him, however, a lone figure had been watching from the shadows. Worried, she went off to find help.
