Kodi and Dusty Shakespeare by 075 prouductions, writer Arcturus075.

Two households, both alike in dignity, In fair Verona, where we lay our scene, From ancient grudge break to new mutiny, Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean. From forth the fatal loins of these two foes A pair of star-cross'd lovers take their life; Whole misadventured piteous overthrows Do with their death bury their parents' strife. The fearful passage of their death-mark'd love, And the continuance of their parents' rage, Which, but their children's end, nought could remove,Is now the two hours' traffic of our stage;The which if you with patient ears attend,
What here shall miss, our toil shall strive to mend.

Sumac and Yak walked the streets of Nome; they always; since of their lords kept a heavy watch for Montague, and Capulet family. Sumac turned to Yak, “Yak o' my word, we'll not carry coals.”

Yak answered him, “No, for then we should be colliers.”

Sumac cocked his head, “I mean, an we be in choler, we'll draw.”

Yak twitched his ear, “Ay, while you live, draw your neck out o' the collar.”

Sumac twitched at his remark, “I strike quickly, being moved.”

Yak felt himself twitch, “But thou art not quickly moved to strike.”

Sumac answered with a tone, “A dog of the house of Montague moves me.”

Yak didn’t like what he heard, “To move is to stir; and to be valiant is to stand: therefore, if thou art moved, thou runn'st away.”

Sumac slightly scoffed at Yak, “A dog of that house shall move me to stand: I will take the wall of any man or maid of Montague's.”

Yak kept his best to keep himself calm, “That shows thee a weak slave; for the weakest goes to the wall.”

Sumac made a slight laugh, “True; and therefore women, being the weaker vessels, are ever thrust to the wall: therefore I will push Montague's men from the wall, and thrust his maids to the wall.”

Yak temper was heated, “The quarrel is between our masters and us their men.”

Sumac kept going out at the house of the Montague’s, “'Tis all one, I will show myself a tyrant: when I have fought with the men, I will be cruel with the
maids, and cut off their heads.”

Yak lowered his brows, “The heads of the maids?” he asked in a rude tone. 

Sumac smiled at Yak, “Ay, the heads of the maids, or their maidenheads; take it in what sense thou wilt.”

Yak to breath to calm himself, “They must take it in sense that feel it.”

Sumac felt higher then Yak at this point, “Me they shall feel while I am able to stand: and 'tis known I am a pretty piece of flesh.”

Yak’s temper was raising, “'Tis well thou art not fish; if thou hadst, thou hadst been poor John.” Draw thy tool! Here comes two of the house of the Montagues.”

Sumac felt in threatened “My naked weapon is out: quarrel, I will back thee.”

Yak was surprised, “How! turn thy back and run?”

Sumac kept his stand, “Fear me not.”

Yak answered him “No, marry; I fear thee!”

Sumacs tried think as if not tempered, “Let us take the law of our sides; let them begin.” 

Yak nodded to Sumac, “I will frown as I pass by, and let them take it as they list.”

Sumac didn’t like what he heard. “Nay, as they dare. I will bite my thumb at them; which is a disgrace to them, if they bear it.”

As he finished talking Kaltag and Star had walked by the two, Kaltag waved at Yak as a hello, Sumac bit his paw at them.

Star turned to Sumac, “Do you bite your paw at us, sir?” he asked.

Sumac answered him, “I do bite my paw, sir.”

Star twitched, “Do you bite your paw at us, sir?” he asked again losing his patience.

Sumac replied turning to Yak, “Is the law of our side, if I say ay?”

Yak quickly responded, “No.”

Sumac turned back to Star “No, sir, I do not bite my paw at you, sir, but I bite my paw, sir.”

Yak having it be obvious, “Do you quarrel, sir?”

Star answered sarcastically “Quarrel sir! no, sir.”

Sumac having the odds against him tried to think not too rash, “If you do, sir, I am for you: I serve as good a man as you.”

Star seeing he was backing down stopped as well, “No better.”

Sumac nodded his head, “Well, sir.”

Yak was still unsure, “Say 'better:' here comes one of my master's kinsmen.”

Sumac swallowed his temper flaring, “Yes, better, sir.”

Star quickly called out, “You lie.”

Sumac almost yelled, “Draw, if you be men. Yak, remember thy swashing blow.”

Yak went for his throat, Sumac backed off but showed his teeth, and bite back. Star joined the fight Sumac swung his paw at him almost hitting his face.

Kirby finished talking to someone as he saw the fight he ran straight into it, “Part, fools! Put up your fangs; you know not what you do.” Star and Yak lowered their mussels to cover their fangs; it took a little bit after before Sumac did the same.

Kirby felt slightly relieved when he dog he hoped could help the fight end. Thunder seemed walked to Kirby with a slight smile, “What, art thou drawn among these heartless hinds? Turn thee, Kirby, look upon thy death.”

Kirby felt hope fade, “I do but keep the peace: put up thy fang, or manage it to part these men with me.” Kirby slightly begged his temper shrinking fast.

Thunder laughed at Kirby, it made him growl, “What, drawn, and talk of peace! I hate the word, As I hate hell, all Montagues, and thee: Have at thee, coward!”

Kirby lost his temper and jumped out at Thunder. Thunder being a great fighter was able to dodge it. The fighting started again. Sumac jumped at Star biting his shoulder Star did his bet to kick him off.

Yak hit Sumac off for star, Kirby tried to head but Thunder but he hit his throat before it could happen. With all the noise more dogs from Capulet and Montague quickly joined the fight, it grew greatly.

Thunder was pinned down by another dog from Montague but kicked him off to a wooden box breaking it. Kirby was distracted with another dog he bit the dogs leg and threw him.

Steele came to all the noise with his mate Hosanna. “What noise is this? Give me my long sword, ho!” Steele referred to a long dagger.

Hosanna answered not pleased, “A crutch, a crutch! why call you for a sword?” she asked.

Steele answered angrily “My sword, I say! Old Montague is come, And flourishes his blade in spite of me.” A dog that served Steele gave him his dagger Steele grabbed with his mouth and ran into the battle stabbing a dog with it.

Other dogs not in the Montague or Capulet shouted for them to stopped for it would wake the humans.

Balto hearing the noise ran to the scene as well with Jenna. “Thou villain Capulet,--Hold me not, let me go.”

Jenna bit his scruff, “Thou shalt not stir a foot to seek a foe.” Balto growled but obeyed.

Even Boris had heard the noise he was grown to basically the prince or ruler of Nome, some birds flew with him, and dogs that were considered the best fighters in Nome followed below him.

Boris started shouting, “Rebellious subjects, enemies to peace,Profaners of this neighbour-stained steel,--
Will they not hear?” he waited for the fighting to stop seeing they the dogs of Montague and Capulet refused to stop.

He shouted again, “What, ho! you men, you beasts, That quench the fire of your pernicious rage With purple fountains issuing from your veins, On pain of torture, from those bloody hands Throw your mistemper'd weapons to the ground, And hear the sentence of your moved prince!” the demand and threat was heard uncared for.

His temper was flaring, “Three civil brawls, bred of an airy word, By thee, old Capulet, and Montague, Have thrice disturb'd the quiet of our streets, And made Verona's ancient citizens Cast by their grave beseeming ornaments, To wield old partisans, in hands as old, Canker'd with peace, to part your canker'd hate: If ever you disturb our streets again, Your lives shall pay the forfeit of the peace.”

He could see some started to stop, he continued “For this time, all the rest depart away: You Capulet; shall go along with me: And, Montague, come you this afternoon, To know our further pleasure in this case, To old Free-town, our common judgment-place. Once more, on pain of death, all men depart.” Hearing these words finally made the fighting stop.

Steele did as he was told by Boris, the fighting had stopped servants of both houses went out to do there best to heal the wounded and dead. The dogs of Nome, was tired of the Montague and Capulet family fighting.

Kirby walked up to Balto and Jenna, he could tell that Balto wanted some answers by the look he gave him. Kirby himself wasn’t very wounded.

Balto saw his wounds where small and went to his question, “Who set this ancient quarrel new abroach?
Speak, nephew, were you by when it began?”

Kirby sighed but answered his lord, “Here were the servants of your adversary, And yours, close fighting ere I did approach: I drew to part them.” Kirby tone changed with anger, “In the instant came The fiery Thunder, with his fangs prepared, Which, as he breathed defiance to my ears, He swung about his head and cut the winds, Who nothing hurt withal hiss'd him in scorn: While we were interchanging thrusts and blows, Came more and more and fought on part and part, Till the prince came, who parted either part.” He knew he went slightly over with his temper still high from the fight. Balto didn’t mind it.

Jenna was looking out at the street where the fight rather riot took place she scanned it. She turned to Kirby with desperate eyes, “O, where is Kodi? Saw you him to-day? Right glad I am he was not at this fray.”

Kirby closed his eyes and sighed, he did not like to think of Kodi right now but he answered his lady with a sigh, “Madam, an hour before the worshipp'd sun Peer'd forth the golden window of the east, A troubled mind drave me to walk abroad.”

He continued, “Where, underneath the grove of sycamore That westward rooteth from the city's side, So early walking did I see your son: Towards him I made, but he was ware of me And stole into the covert of the wood: I, measuring
