"GET HER!" Yelled a tall and very furious female canid alien, who had just realized her leather bag full of gold and jewelry was stolen after a clumsy theif bumped into her while trying to be swift with the action. The patrol team obeyed the woman and immediately started chasing their target,"HALT. CRESENTIA SPACE PATROL SHERIFF!" Demanded the leading robotic cop pointing to his sun shaped badge, he was followed by only one other cop. The theif whipped her head behind her whilst slipping a pearl bracelet off of another alien. The large female turned quickly behind her to she what was going on, she then directed her eyes down to a panicked girl desperately trying to hide the bracelet she had just stolen from the suspecting women standing just inches away from her. The women saw the bracelet in the wolf's hand and glanced at her own wrist to notice it was gone. The small female under her looked up after failing to find a hiding spot,"oh-wow, heh....how'd that get there?-" her words cut off by the woman yanking the bracket out of her hands with ease. The wolf was stunned still for a moment at the force, only to be snapped back into reality by none other than the sheriff grabbing onto her white collard shirt, which was also stolen. She kicked at him, missing every time. "Finally! We caught the darn mutt!" Cheered an upcoming cop. The caught pup felt like a fish on a rod and decided to 'unhook' herself by biting deeply into the cops flexible arm that was about to take back the stolen bag, causing air to spew out, making his arm deflate. "AAUGH!" He screeched as he dropped her to the ground to tend to his arm, she saw a chance to escape and she did.
She was now running as fast as she could with the bag, hearing the furious robots behind her yelling at her to stop, which only made her run faster. "There's no turning back now." she thought as she ran, her legs getting sore and her chest starting to hurt and sting. As much as she wanted to stop and rest she couldn't. She was in deep now, she had been so careful before but this little mistake could mean her life. Her eyes darted around looking for places to hide, she ran into multiple aliens of all sort while running. "Where?....where do I go? There's no where to even hide!" She thought once more looking around only to find all the alley ways where filled with people, so full that she couldn't even get inside the alley. "I HATE THI-" her trail of thought was halted when she ran into the back of a huge figure. She fell back and hit her head on the stone wall that felt like nothing compared to what she just ran into. She rubbed her nose which felt like it was broken and was now bleeding a bit. Feeling the impact, the large figure turned around to see who ran into him. He looked around and saw no one until he heard a groan from the little wolf that was below him. "T'ah- sorry lass, didn't cha' look where ye was headin'?"
He spoke in a soft tone, feeling bad for the lass. He bent down on one knee and offered his hand to help her up. Opening her eyes and rubbing her nose, she looked up to see that the tall figure was an ursid. The male stood about 9ft tall, he was one of the largest ursids she has ever seen. He had a long, black trench coat on, a white collared shirt that was similar to hers, and red pants. Suddenly, she remembered why she was even running in the first place and hopped up quickly before the man could even blink twice. He looked up at her, grinned and went to stand up,"ye bounce back don't cha'?" He chuckled having a little trouble getting back up. "Hide me!" She whispered quickly to him not even looking him in his eyes, then running behind him and grabbing onto his long coat. "Wha-?" He said with a breathly voice lifting an arm and turning his torso around before the sound of sirens blaring, getting closer stopped him as he whipped his head back to the shorter, robo cop that was now in his face. "Give us the girl." He demanded. The ursid stared at him for a moment then his eyes darted to the right trying to see the girl. He stayed quiet and with a blink of an eye he came up with a almost fool-proof lie. "Why ye' chasing me lass off-cer' ?" The sheriff straitened up a bit,"yours?" He asked still with the demanding tone,"Aye, tis lass te first of me crew, boardin' any moment now. We off ta' t'e skies fer good." He said in a playful tone holding both arms out as to represent the ship sailing. "Sir, this woman is a crimin-" the sheriff was cut off by the second cop," can I speak with you sheriff?" The sheriff nodded and they turned around to talk. The pup took the opportunity to run but she was grabbed by the man and put back behind him.
"You heard him, she'd be gone for good." "So?" "So, we wont have to deal with her anymore, we would be rid of her for good!" The sheriff nodded and turned around,"Alright, but we demand to be given back the stolen items to return." The ursid smiled sheepishly and nodded. He turned and took the stolen bag away from the girl who was attempting to get it back. He handed it over to the cops who nodded and left the scene.
