It was early morning. Just past dawn. A gorgeous golden retriever trotted through the territory. The beta had of course told Avi she was going exploring on her own for a while. But as always, nothing was wrong with company. She didn't want to wake anyone. Most would think: 'why didn't you wait until later to take us out?' Well Miel had thought that through, deciding that if there were any predators around, they either wouldn't be out, or just woke up and would need to get some things done before they could attack a strong looking female.

((Did u mean Siiv?))
A steady drumming gradually became louder. Something big was coming in Miel's direction.
A big russet pelted part-wolf-part-germanshepherd slowed to a trot as he came within ten feet of the beta.
"Avi and Siiv mentioned someone going on patrol alone. If I'd known it was you, I wouldnt have come, but since I'm here, I may as well go with." That was Zylo's explanation as he trailed slightly behind the retriever as she ran along. He didnt talk too much, so Miel probably wasnt going to get his reason for "he-wouldnt-have-come-cause-she's-who-she-is", but when he did talk, he could be rather rude and didnt filter his words for anyone, not even the alpha. So maybe she didnt even want to know.

(Whoops sorry haven't post in a while, so I forgot a few things)
Miel rolled her eyes, leaving his words to hang in the air. She didn't care, since she knew that's how Zylo was. "Well then, guess you have to deal with it." She barked with breaking her pace or looking back.

He gave her a curious I-have-no-freaking-idea-what-you're-talking-about look that she didnt see because she was avoiding looking at him.
The two dogs were perhaps two of the most fit in the pack; the pair maintained a quick pace all throughout the patrol, not speaking to each other except single-worded warnings about a sticking up tree root or a potentialy paw-twisting rabbit hole.
They finished the run around the territory at the lake Avi had discovered at the far edge of pack territory. Zylo padded into a shaded edge to wind down in the still night-cold water.
Miel might stick around or might go back to camp to report. Not that there was anything worth waking Siiv up to report... In fact, Siiv was probably already leading the next patrol and wouldnt even be back at camp for another hour or so.
Zylo glanced at the beta, blinked his brown eyes once, and wagged his wet tail a single time, sprinking the retriever with icy water.
"Oops." He flashed her an unappologetic sarcastic smile and looked around in the water for potential fish to catch. Sometimes he was mean like that on purpose; Avi said it was because he was insecure, but the rest of the pack seriously doubted that theory because Zylo was probably one of the most self-confident dogs in the pack...

Miel only slightly jumped, but she was always alert so water didn't make a big difference.
Her brown eyes rolled, and water flicked onto his back, coming from her wet paw when she expertly fished a fish out of the water. She had set it up so he got splashed and the fish was far from the water.
She leaped and bit into the fishes flesh, killing it with a single bite and shaking out her reddish gold fur.
She left the fish there to pile more onto it and crouched by the surface.

Because Zylo was already wet, he didnt even feel Miel's water splash at him. Besides, he was already too focoused on a shadow under the water to notice her petty revenge.
A second later, he had a silver, green and pink fish in his jaws too. It flopped for a few minutes when he put it by Miel's fish, but died soon after of suffocation.
"I dont feel like fishing anymore," He said with a lazy yawn, unnessecarily splashing into the water and scaring away whatever shadows Miel had been crouching over.
((JERK ALERT!! XD))

Miel wanted to let out a growl, but she held back. He was who he was, even that that was some annoying jerk who needed a good bite. She turned and trotted to the fish.
"Okay, well, I'm gonna continue hunting you do whatever as long as you come back to get the fish." She barked, hiding her fish in a bush and covering it with dirt to help mask the scent.

"Yes, 'maam!" He snapped, following up with a snide smirk in Miel's general direction. Maybe something had happened; he seemed meaner than usual today. He waded into deeper waters as Miel padded off...

Miel's eyes narrowed, but she said nothing. She turned away from him and padded off to catch more food for the pack in the caves.
(Yep)
