February 2, Open to all Thorns and Unaffiliated. Location: Deep in the jungle.
Yellowed eyes watched some pretty red thing cluck along the jungle ground, swiveling it's head as it watched for leapords, lions, and the like. It was only unfortunate that it should have been watching for canines. Said canine suddenly burst from the undergrowth, bark shaking the leaves of the trees as he screamed towards the junglefowl. DeSoto, a Doberman completely out of place in the wild jungle, but absolutely deadly when he put his mind to it. He needed to eat, kibble was something hard to come by in the Cursed Thorns, and he had set off, bounding through the jungle until he found something stupid enough to stand still on the ground. Once he found his quarry, he didn't let it go.
DeSoto scrambled in loose dirt, struggling for a foothold as the junglefowl screeched in panic and flapped it's wings, managing to lift off the ground as it tried to flee. A dog might be startled by the change in height and hesitate, but DeSoto wasn't one to hesitate, the little bird trying to fly away almost felt like a challenge. The screech of the bird cut off as he jumped and snapped his jaws around it's neck...it was way bigger than some pigeon on the street, and the size made it that more thrilling. DeSoto crashed down to the dirt, deep laugh in the back of his throat, released the bird, and prepared to howl like the dog he was...
...and broke off coughing, gasping deep breaths as he attempted another dark laugh, breaking off yet again with a wheeze. The dog suddenly hunched forward, heart pounding in his throat. The heat and humidity was far different from New York, different from even a forest, and now he was feeling the effects. Maybe running full-tilt through a jungle as a city dog wasn't the best idea, but he wasn't going to consider it.
In the few seconds he attempted to recover a little, tongue lolling as he panted, he didn't notice anything around him, nor did he pay attention to his caught bird. Panting felt far more important than plucking some feathery morsel, after all.
