(Joel and Clotho joining Risk's pack. Sorry if I get any descriptions wrong, I'm only guessing what a sewer looks like ^^; And when Joel calls Clotho 'Te or Ate, he's speaking a term in his dialect for an older female~)
"Ugh, it smells like some horse took a truckload of sh*t!"
The young Aspin scowled ashe shook some green sewer water from his paw. The New Guinea Singing Dog beside him rolled her eyes. In her accent, she growled, "Quiet. What if we are in the wrong place? What if thees is where they reside?" The Aspin snorted and continued walking.
"It sure looks like they could live here." His ears flattened and he shook some water from his head. "'Te, why the hell're we joining that that Risky's pack again? You were doing just fine by y'self." The reason he was probably asking this was that he wasn't very social; the time he'd spent around the closest thing he could call a pack didn't go well.
The female didn't bother to turn around. "I thought we have agreed on thees in the past; Eet is better to be arond others. Risk's pack is said to have eexperience fighting thee Cursed Ones." The younger male sighed. "I don't get why you talk casually 'bout this Clotho.." He murmered. The female flicked his cheek with her tail. "Let us just go.."

Hope its ok if we join in ^^
Kismet strolled through the sewers quietly on her frequent patrol, a rather non-nonchalant expression on her face as she scanned the area, her grey eyes fixating on anything of particular interest. She had been on this pursuit for a few hours now, walking a short distance behind the tall borzoi and the samoyed that were also on patrol with her.
She grew bored quickly, lowering her head so it hung below her shoulders she stared absently at the bleak floor, "Do you think we should go back soon, doesn't look like we are going to find anything." She said quietly, quickening her pace to walk beside them.

Snowest walked with her patrol quietly. She was rather sleepy and it was really only the sewer's smell that kept her awake. It burned its way through her nostrils, and she didn't think that she would ever get used to that smell. The borzoi that had just joined and Kismet were with her. Kismet fell behind, obviously bored. Catching up she said, "Do you think we should go back soon, doesn't look like we are going to find anything." Pondering the statement Snowest was silent. Figuring she would be kind and not make the male answer, she did it for him, "Perhaps. We should probably check the entrance though. Wait," distant voices reached her ears. "Do you hear that?" She turned, the voices were coming through another tunnel. (If u guys don't know what a sewer looks like, here: Link )

Shadow: virusrising.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=tryouts&action=display&thread=101Shadow was walking with Kismet and Snowest, patrolling on the sewers. His first patrol as Risk's pack part. Belonging to a pack was new to him, somehow a new wonderful thing, and also a depressive one, depending on how the other dogs were looking at him each time he tried to talk. Relationship had never been his best thing, and once again it was showing up there. Or maybe that was him who was imagining things, it was still too new for him to get a clear idea. However, all his attention span was now concentrating on immediate present: the patrol, getting the idea of how the tunnels were ordered, and trying to forget about the pestilential scent reigning on the sewers. It was the main reason why he was more outside in the town, sometimes even at night, than inside it. Still, he was around when needed, ready to do what the pack would need him to do. And if he didn't really know how Kismet was, he pretty liked the Samoyed, Snowest. It was her who had introduced him to Risk's pack, and also who had told him what he had to know, at least about packs, and about this place. He was -unfortunately- aware enough about the virus already. His thoughts and concentration broke away as Kismet asked if they were continuing their patrol, since they had noticed nothing unusual since they'd began it. But as to prove they were wrong, some noises suddenly came to their ears. "Yes, i hear it", he said, slightly whispering. -His voice was rarely more than an odd whisper anyway- he thought. "Voices... coming from afar... We should go to take a look, shouldn't we?" As he was new, he still wasn't so sure about how to act in the pack, however it seemed to him a good idea to go to see what was going on. One wasn't too careful, with all these infected around nowadays.

(Oh wow oVo Thanks you guys!)
The male's ears whipped up. "Clotho.." He growled lightly. His tail twitched. His sense of smell had never failed him. Someone else was definetely in the sewer.
Clotho looked at him strangely, before turning her head to the upper part of the sewer and taking a deep whiff... Past the sewer water and rats and rotten food.. There were dogs. Two, to be exact. She growled lightly. "I do not theenk they are Cursed Ones.." She muttered, before continuing walking. She had memorized their smell by now.
THe male yipped. "Clotho! W-what if you're wrong..?" He yipped jumpily.
Clotho growled and looked at him. "Have our noses ever fay-eeled us? No. And Joel, just what are you frightened about? You have no-thing to fear against them; you are blessed, no?"
The male stopped. Of course. He was immune. Yet you couldn't help but be afraid. Seeing practically the walking dead running at you, jaws open, their black gums. He shuddered. "Shut up 'Te.." He muttered. "Right. Maybe it's some members of Risky's pack.." He continued walking, but much closer to his companion. Besides, Clotho knew their smell.. Every time he had thought her wrong, he was the one who ended up wrong in the end. This situation could be no different, right?

Np problem ^^ ))
Kismets ears twitched and she stopped as she too heard voices coming from somewhere nearby. She stood there for a minute, listening out for any thing else. But she didn't need to really, it was already obvious there was something else present in these sewers, she raised her head and took in a breath as she confirmed her suspicions. "There is two of them i think, should we investigate?" She said, a hint of enthusiasm in her voice. "I don't think they are infected, but i cant be certain."
She turned to the patrol and waited for orders, she was worried about the outcome if she had miss read her senses in fact there were infected roaming about. She was not worried a her own well being, she was immune of course, but she didn't want her pack mates to be in any kind of danger.

(To those who don't know, Clotho smells like dirt, grass and blood)
The two continued. This time, Joel caught the scent of another one. There were three now. He walked slightly faster; they didn't smell of decay and blood, like the infected did.
Clotho raised her nose to the air once again. They were definitely normal. She nosed the younger but bigger dog beside her."I am vera seer-tan they are un-cursed. Keep on walking my fraynd." She relaxed her body and quickened her pace. "Hay-low?" She barked out in her accent.
Joel jumped when his friend called out. Was she crazy? But then again, she was certain they were cool.. He tried hard to relax. Dammit, he wished he recognized the difference in scents between infected and normal, which was rather strange. Every dog he came across, fearful stray/pet and infected alike seemed to smell of blood. He would learn soon hopefully. "Hey. We can smell you. Come on out, we aren't dangerous." He barked out, his voice steady and firm.

(It was actually my turn)
Snowest listened as two dogs in the other tunnel made their way closer. She could hardly smell anything, and wasn't sure if they were infected or not. Walking to the front of their little patrol she tried to catch a view of the unknowns. They called out, but it could be a trap.
"You come out." She shot back. Not in a rude way, but in a no nonsense way. They would show themselves first, the patrol would not risk it.

(Ah, sorry.)
Clotho did not hesitate to turn her trotting into a run. Joel scoffed and followed his companion, the sewer water splashing around and turning his white fur into a green-gray color.
He could hardly see in here, but that was somewhat of a disadvantage and an advantage at the same time. IF Clotho wa wrong, which was less likely, they could always land a few bites and scamper off. The smell was getting stronger and stronger. It was amazing he and his friend could make out anything in this enviroment. He would probably end up crashing into someone at this rate..

Shadow stepped up near Snowest's shoulder as he heard the voices once again, followed by pawsteps in the muddy sewer's water. He stayed silent, but was ready for whatever would come to them. A male and a female, he could say from the voices. However there was no way to tell for real if they were infected or not. But as the pawsteps were coming closer -and faster- Shadow decided it was time to stop them before they'd run straight in the middle of the patrol. "You'd better stop running, and calmly come out", he said. His odd voice wasn't strong, but it'd surly be odd enough to slow the two other dogs. Everyone's been wondering why Shadow had such a weird voice the first time they heard it. If not, well, he was ready anyway.

Her eyes narrowed against the dull light as the sounds of the dogs approaching grew louder, she edged forward slightly but still remained at the back of the patrol. No one knew if these were infecteds, if they were there was going to be a problem as the sounds of paw steps grew uncomfortably close. She had no faith in her sense of smell and as silhouettes began to become visible she tensed herself preparing for the worst.
((Sorry for short post, have to study!))

(It's fine~)
Damn, it was dark.. Joel thought as he ran through the blackness of the sewers. He could hardly see Clotho's tail or his paws anymore. A voice had called out for them to stop running. He slowed down slightly, but Clotho didn't. "Clotho, they told us to-Hey Clotho!" He yelped, hearing a skidding noise. She appeared to have slipped in the water, telling from the splash.
Clotho growled and shook her fur. They were probably right next to the unknown dogs. She sighed. "Ve-ree sorry for the scare.." She muttered, shaking a little more letting some droplets fly from her pelt.
Joel scoffed. "Honestly, you need to watch it!" He sniffed his path, trying to make sure he wouldn't bump into anybody. There were 3 silhouettes of dogs around them, tense and nervous. He sighed. "We don't want any trouble.. We'll leave if you want.." He said quietly as he sniffed around for Clotho.

Snowest snarled as the dogs began to run, wishing she could back up. But no, they wouldn't back down. Shadow told them to stop running, but they didn't. Her ears flattened against her head Snowest was scared. They must really be infected.
"Get ready!" She called to Kismet and Shadow as the silhouettes showed up. Snowest herself lowered into a defensive pose. Looking closely at the two dogs she saw no yellow eyes, and with them being this close she thought they didn't smell like infecteds. Still, they couldn't take the chance. "Move over to that light." she ordered the dogs, motioning to a small patch of light from a manhole. She did not become less defensive, but she would give them the benefit of the doubt. She was far too scared to start a fight anyways.

Shadow could feel the tense emanating from Snowest's body. That wasn't surprising, knowing that she was vulnerable, and them confronting to two dogs they did know nothing about, in the pack's sewer. Himself was cautious, and as the others didn't seem to want to stop, he stepped up again, going at the head of the patrol, ready to counter-attack if the situation would go worse.
Shadow's ears flicked back when he heard the intruders apologizing and talking about leaving. They didn't seem to be infected, no yellow eyes, and they weren't acting like some of the cursed ones. Still one wasn't cautious enough, and Shadow wasn't one to take few words for truth. "You should avoid running straight everywhere, some wouldn't have took that good unknown dogs running in here", he said pretty dryly. His voice was making it even oddest than he actually meant to, but maybe that would make a good enough warning. "What are your names and intentions coming here?" He wouldn't start a fight, but he'd do if he had to, in order to protect the pack, and the patrol. Many dogs were taking him as smart and such due to his shape and long silky white and light grey fur, but he was also a sight hound, meant to fight against wild animals when needed.

As it became apparent the intruders were not infected Kismet let out a quite sigh but still remained in her defensive stance, she was obviously relieved about this discovery but she was still wary to what the intentions of these two were. She stepped forward slightly to stand beside her patrol members so that she could try and get a better look. She lowered her head as her ears flattened slightly, not as cautious as the others but still waiting anxiously for a response to confirm the intentions of these two dogs.
