dead. 

 I sunk down to the ground. Tears were rushing out of me. I grimced at Rick. He backed up. "You!" I shouted at him. I was supprissed that I was that mad at him, even tho Father treated me horibley. " Zeathra I-" I cut him off. " You are the one that killed him!" I stood up. "Im running away, I cant  deal with anymore sadness!" I rushed away leaveing Rick. A tiny tear slipped from his eye and toutced the lifeless body.

   I ran into Nome, bumping into pepole. I saw an ally and dove into it. A deserted trashcan lay on its side. I saw my chance and climbed in. Footsteps came up and my heart pounded. The pepole lifted up the trashcan, I fell out. The pepole dug into there pockets and  then had rocks in there hands.  They forced me back,  causeing me to wheeze.

 They left laughing and shouting. I ran away from the ally. I soon saw a home. I thunderd into the yard and collapsed on the grass.

 A little girl sat on the porch, curling a string of hair on her finger. She glanced up at me, a huge smile on her face. She reached out her hand and gigiled "Hi doggie!" I cocked my head. I got my strengh and wairly padded over to the giri.

  I put my head in the palm of her head. While she was strokeing my fur she kept saying: '' Good doggie, very good doggie."  A voice came from insiide the house, it was her Mothers. " Rose, dinner time.'' The little girl pated me on the head, stood up, and said finealy " Bye-bye doggie." She went threw the screen door. I sighed and wished that little girl hadent have gone.

I heard a bark and a figure came running down the road. She carried some garbage. She plopped down in a yard across the street from me.

 She smiled and got up and came next to me. "Hi!'' She said. "Wanna share this with me?" I nodded but hesiteded, then I remeberd Grandmothers word:" If you can not get food  from the Bucthers Shop, eat garbage." I ate.

 She smiled as I gulped down the last of it. "Well, first off, my name is Becky." Her tail wagged so fast she knocked down a trashcan nearby. I gigiled a bit then said. "Im Zeathra."  Her eyes softend.'' Wow! Amazeing name!"

  Her eyes then grew wide in amazement. "You dont look like a husky, are you a wolf?" I nodded." Wow!" She went across the street and sat down. I folloowed. "So, tell me your story." I gulped then beagen my Life Story.

      When I finished the story the sun had allready set. Becky yawned and streched. "Well,"She said. "I think its time for me to go to sleep." I nodded and we both drempt sleepingly, side by side.

  Something  nuzzeld me awke. I stirted, standing there smileing was Rick.
