-Just a Quickie-

((Open to Everyone))

Hum-de-dum, hum-de-dum..what a delightfully boring day it was. Zel let out a sigh as he lay on the rock on his back. The large wolf was practically hanging off of it, but he didn't seem to care. Infact, the black brute looked rather comfortable just hanging out. His wings were splayed off to the side, his legs curled inward, his tail lazily wagging back and forth. It was an unusually warm day for winter, but he didn't care. But like always, as much as he enjoyed his down time. Zel was beyond bored.

A young wolf with a large scruff on his head had been running along the beach, his tongue was out and rolling in the warm air, the ocean waters would come up and lick him beneath his pads. It always gave him a shiver because the was so cold, he would of thought it was ice except that it was moving.

"Would you for once look at your surroundings?!" Ayo snapped at Amadi. The young wolf stopped in his tracks to glare at his friend. "If you didn't notice, there is a black wolf over there, he could be hostile!" Ayo growled.

Amadi flattened his ears, "You told me to run, so I am running, now you tell me to actually play attention!" Amadi said in full sarcasm. "There is no way I can do that Ayo!" He flopped himself onto the ground. The smooth ice orb was growing spikes. Amadi's eyes flew open. "N-No, I-I didn't mean it!" The young wolf stuttered as he jumped up and made a run for it.

The spiky orb was now in close pursuit behind the wolf, forgetting why the fight even started. They were in ear shot now, "P-Please! Ayo! No! I-I will run! Don't hit me!" Amadi panted as Ayo came from behind Amadi. Ayo laughed and rammed into Amadi, but the spikes were gone by then.

Amadi exhaled in relief, he panted heavily, then shock wavered through him as he glanced up at the wolf that was on the rock a moment ago. Embarrassment prickled him, as a small wind picked up, the large shaggy hair that usually covered his eyes was flowing in the wind. Amadi's two colored eyes were locked on the wolf, wonder if he just ran into his death.

(OOC: I hope I didn't misunderstand anything >.<

The sound of the waves on the shore was the only thing he had heard for a long time. That is until it was quickly disrupted. Zel's tail stopped moving in response and he turned his head. From his upside-down position, the wolf looked as if he were running on sand in the sky. Silver eyes blinked as he watched the wolf for a moment, his mind processing what to do. He stayed like that for a while and finally the corners of his lips turned up into a smile.

'The voices talk to you too, eh?' He joked. With a deep laugh that rumbled in his chest like thunder, the brute rolled to the left. He rolled right off the rock and on to his paws. Here he proceeded to stretch every appendage as he looked to Amadi, 'I got bored with my voices a long time ago. Good riddance too. They talked more than squirrels on a nut rush.'

Embarrassment flowed through Amadi like the waves hitting the rocks, taking over them. But this time, the waves of embarrassment didn't retrieve. "Voices?" He tilted his head, but he knew very well that he was Sho-un and could understand spirits. Ayo hovered protectively in front of Amadi, as if to shield him from danger, but that only made Amadi look pathetic.

The young wolf swallowed, the wolf didn't seem mean, "Hahaha...." Amadi offered a little laugh and a smile. "My name is Amadi," His name rolled off his tongue easily, though the meaning of the name always bore through him like a gunshot wound. "And this is a spirit, Ayo."

[Mama Z]

The moment the younger wolf said the word spirit, Zel gave a brief nod. He suspected as much. Zel was not Sho-un and hence didn't see the spirit bobbing around in from of Amadi (whom he must have made awkward by his joke). 'Well its a pleasure to meet you both. I must warn you though, I don't have the talent of communicating with Spirits. I hear voices but Im sure they're all in my head.' Another rumble of laughter and he sat down. 'What brings you two out this far? Not many wolves like the salty water of the ocean.'

Amadi smiled, is natural personality was about to come out, but embarrassment flooded him once again. He couldn't think of would it would be like to not have friends. "The best ones are in your head," Amadi chuckled along with the other wolf, he wasn't surprised when the other wolf sat down. Amadi got into a sitting position as well.

He thought for a moment, Why did I come to the ocean? "Well, I guess I wanted to explore a little, I erm..." I just became seven months, not a pup anymore, I can wander away from the pack now. Amadi thought to himself, but he wouldn't say it. "I was finally able to explore, so I took the chance to." He offered a friendly smile. "How about yourself?"

[Mama Z]

There was an innocence about Amadi that Zel easily picked up on. He came out here to explore, because now he had a chance to. Zel briefly wandered what it was that had been holding him back but refrained from asking. It would all come in good time. The question was turned around on him and he inhaled and held the breath, looking around for a moment. 'Absolutely no clue as to why I'm here.' He added finally releasing the air which made his chest instantly deflate. Another low laugh left him, as if he were laughing at his own personal joke or at himself, 'I tend to go where the winds take me. Maybe I was brought here to meet you, Amadi and Ayo.' Might as well give the spirit some attention right back.

Amadi glanced at Ayo, who was annoyed, he kept circling Amadi as if to protect him. Amadi wanted to say something, but didn't want to bring attention to it. He can't see Ayo, right? A weird numbing pain washed over him as he thought of life without Ayo. He probably would be dead right now, frozen in with the snow. He couldn't stop it when his ears flattened. His claws dub into the sand.

Ayo sensed his change in mood, and as if to assure him, the little spirit stopped circling him and rested onto the beach. 'Well, might as well talk, he may be able to teach you something, young pup.' Annoyance prickled Amadi, but he said nothing to Ayo. He smiled, "Where the wind takes you? That seems... like it would be fun." Though, Amadi knew he couldn't leave, he had a duty to the pack as a Sho-un. Unanswered questions prickled him, but he knew he would find the answer if he truly wanted to know.

"The ocean is freezing!" Amadi grinned with a chuckle.

[Mama Z]

It was never Zel's intent to seclude the spirit from their conversation. He knew it was there and most likely extremely attached to the Sho-un. Amadi was very young and Zel was carrying on the hunch the spirit maybe an only friend, or at least, the closest friend he had. 'Oh its very fun,' Zel agreed nodding his head and looking out toward the water. At the exclamation he gave another nod, 'It is. Though it does tend to warm up once you've been in it for a while.'

The large wolf stood up then and headed toward the ocean waves. He stopped once the water easily covered his paws. The waves rolled up, coating his belly easily as they made their way toward shore. He turned to look at his two companions. 'Well! Get out here, youngling!' He hollard, 'No point in being at the beach if you can't enjoy it!'

'No,' Ayo said it faster before Amadi could nod.

"Wh-what?" Amadi said baffled to the spirit.

'You remember last time you dived in after something you saw, you almost drowned!' Ayo growled, shuttering in anger, he was only afraid for the young pup.

"That was then!" Amadi flattened his ears and ran forward to the large wolf. I wonder if I will get as big as him! Amadi's tongue rolled out and he stayed a little behind, only for the ocean water to overlap his paws. Amadi stood on his back paws and came down, making a large splash rise around him before the water receded. He laughed, his tail shaking with excitement.

Ayo watched after Amadi, sadness coming over him, and fear as he watched Amadi leave. 'Please... be safe...' He whispered to himself. Ayo was old, quite old, as old as spirit's come, when he had ran into Amadi that day, it was like his own son, even if they were completely different races.

[Mama Z]

If Zel had any idea that Ayo was having doubts about playing in the water, he would have reassured the spirit. Though he may seem older in age, he was far from weak and would look after the much younger wolf. But as it stood, he was going to watch otu for him anyways. No harm would come to him if Zel could prevent. All the same a belt of laughter left him as Amadi began to play. Life was too short to take everthing so seriously, Zel knew that was a fact.

The young one splashed with his front paws and Zel followed suit. He turned, using his back paws, he began to kick them in Amadi's direction, splashing the other with as much water as possible.

[Anila]

The cold water hit him, plastering itself over him. He started to shiver, his muscles filled with chilling excitement as he splashed Zel back, his tail waving back and forth. His splash wasn't nearly as big as Zel's was, but Amadi was having fun. He jumped up, his long legs hitting the water beside Zel, but as quickly as he had jumped there he had jumped away, his muscles starting to warm up.

A sharp pain was like lightning up his leg, his eyes flashed in pain as he picked up his paw to sniff it, he had stepped on a sharp rock. He quickly ignored it, placing his paw back in the water, the saltiness stung his paw but he ignored it, his tongue rolled out of his mouth and he looked up at Zel breathing hard.
