Levi panted heavily as his paws rapidly splashed across the small puddles of water. Upon crossing a street, he scanned his eyes towards the sign, seeing which street he was on.

"Wolfenheim Street." The sign displayed as the Malamute quickly ran around the corner, passing the store and into the alleyway where Spencer's place was.

"Spencer! Spencer!" Levi called out, not hearing any responses. After quickly scanning the area, the dog approached the makeshift door. "Spencer! Wher-!" Levi was cut off as his face was slammed into the wall.

"Fuck off, you-! Shit, Levi!" Spencer cursed as he quickly shut the door,  going to help the Malamute shortly after, "Sorry about that, you scared the shit out of me."

Levi held the side of his face as he winced in pain, "You trying to make me blind or something? Damn it!"

"Alright, ease up, lad. Just...move your paw and I'll take care of the rest." Spencer cringed a bit as he saw the damage he inflicted on the dog. "Doesn't look too bad, just hold on."

Levi soon eased up, leaning his head against the wall as he aimed the injured side towards Spencer, who came back with a small med-kit to aid the pup. "Spencer, what was the whole problem you called me for? What's going on? What's so urgent?"

"Maybe it's my paranoia but I have a feeling someone's eyeing me, wants me dead." Spencer briefly explained as he cleaned up Levi's wound. "Maybe Ajax changed his mind and sent someone else to kill me rather than that Shepherd."

Levi's ears raised up, "Ajax? What does he have to do with this? And what about that Shepherd? You mean Isaac?"

The Border Collie's eyes remained concentrated towards the injury as he answered the multitude of questions, "Yeah, that's the one. Anyway, Ajax wanted me dealt with because I'm not a 'good earner' even though I've been pulling my own weight for that asshole for a long time even if I'm not in the Den anymore. Avery convinced him not to go through with it but maybe that wore off at this point."

"Well, I can assu-ow!" The Malamute winced at the sudden jolt of pain, "I can probably assure you it's not a dog from the Den, Avery would've heard something if that was the case."

"I hope so." Spencer cleaned up the last bit of blood from the wound, placing a bandage on it as he soon gave the dog some space. "Well, you're all good now, mate."

"Thanks, Spencer." Levi smiled as the Border Collie gave a nod, laying down on his bed.

The Malamute checked his injury with a mirror that Spencer had laying around. As he checked his bandage, he noticed that his collar was damaged. Letting out a sigh of frustration, he called out to the Border Collie. "Hey, Spencer, you think you can fix up my collar?"

Spencer got up from his bed and approached the dog, "Sure, hand it over." The Border Collie grabbed the collar and placed it on the desk close to the door. Upon examining it, he noticed the collar flashing in and out of light as the cover of the pendant was hanging out a bit. As he opened it up, he saw the problem. "Okay, good news is that it's not entirely busted but the bad news is that it's going to, more than likely, lose connection pretty often."

Levi's ears lowered, "Can you fix it?"

"I, sadly, can't. I don't know much about these things anyway." Spencer answered, "I can just fix up the cosmetic damage so it doesn't entirely look messed up."
