The Dog that Shocked his Pack

Chapter 3: Preparation

As the weeks went on Chase, Echo and Jack continued to grow. They were excited about training but Echo and Jack were nervous as they had never been away from their mother before. Every day the pups would grow and grow.

Chase was much bigger than Echo or Jack, and his was growing the familiar Carnage hunches. Because Carnage has a long history of fighting, its members had developed strong shoulders and forelegs.Chase hoped that some of his mother's genes from Miracle would counter balance with his father's genes from Carnage. But even if this did happen, his mother was still a very large dog. Tiny but Carnage standards, average but Destiny's and giant by Miracle's.

His mother. Chase often thought about her, about if she is missing him or not. Chase knew that she wouldn't care where he was but somewhere deep in his heart he wished she did. Maybe it was better if she didn't care about him, she wouldn't look for him and he would be safe. But this didn't stop his mind having mixed feelings. If there was one person who would miss him, it would be Ivy. She was more of a mother than Pip could ever be. He hoped every time he woke up or feel asleep that she wouldn't come looking for him.

With one month to training Chase, Echo and Jack were nearly full sized dogs. Echo and Jack were catching up with their mother, and Chase, well he had long overtaken Ripple. All three pups were now faster and quieter. They all could do basic battle moves but were a long way from becoming a warrior. Chase still couldn't come to grips about how pups in Destiny were trained. In Carnage, the father to the pup would train their pup when ever they liked and finished training them when they thought, personally, their pup was ready. Of course Destiny's way was fairer. Didn't dogs had differnet training methods, and to be truthful most Carnage dogs would do anything to get their pup to be the best.

There was still no news from Carnage about a missing pup, most had adapted to the idea that Chase was from the bald ones. Though Chase was aware that some doubted his story by the sheer size of Chase. Heather tried to convince these few, that Chase would become a great asset to their pack one day and that his size would help dramactically but many were still wary. Chase didn't mind. He was doing well in training and both Jack and Echo didn't mind. They were too excited.
