Ash was wide awake when the crash had token place. He seemed to of been uncatious for a few minutes, but soon cleared up and awoke. He saw Julie and Dallas and Zack and Alicia. He also saw Luke and Bolt. He then noticed a sharp cut in his right heel as soon as the pain begain to kick in. He yelped loudly, hoping someone would hear him. He thought about it, and figured any person that was in the truck at the time, was probably dead...

-CLeared, yet accepted-

Zack ignored The proceedings. His Eyes still trained on the ground and his thoughts clouded. Suddenly he spoke up "We shpould just get out of here" he said Quietly, Only just loud enough for the few near to catch his words. A sharp pain ran up his leg when He tried to stand. He stumbled sligthly with a whince. he Sat down again and Grimaced "As soon as possible" he myuttered. His eyes flicked aroudn the group, Taking in the expressions on everyones faces. He Thought about everything and his eyes dropepd to the floor again silently. He Couldnt help a small begrudging Smile When he saw Lukes Helpfulness Hes a good dog Thought the lurcher They all are really he couldnt help but think afterwards. He stood up,Ignoring the Pain in hois leg that made himw ant to pass out. And Trotted away fromn the dogs lsightly. Far enough away that he couldnt hear anything they said, But not so far he couldnt see them. He stared away from Them, His fur blowing in a slight breese. A sudden thud next to him Made him start and he turned around to face Ally.

Ally looked at Zack with wide,Scared eyes. Eys that had never seen Suffering Or hardship. She Looked at The Older lurcher for comfort "What-What..." but her question was lost. A tremble ripped through her body "Whats gonna happen Zack?" she asked quietly. The fear seeped into her voice As she looked back towards the others again "Whats Gonna happen?".

Zack looked down at her. He Could see the fear In the collie "I dont know" he said Truthfully,Then He paused. No response from Ally. "D*MN IT I DONT KNOW!" he suddenly yelled. Every Moment of supressed Greif and Pain and Anger hed ever had Came out in Those words "I dont know Whats gonen happen to day pr tommorroew or the day After That Ally And you know what? I DONT DANGED CARE ANYMORE!" he yelled the last bit of that as well. His eyes Blazed "Go Back to Them Alicia" he snarled "Go BAck And Dont Speak to me, DOnt Even LOOK at me like That." he said, Every Word Dripping with Venom. He turned away From her again "Stay Away From Me Ally. Tell Them to leave me alone too" he said. Suddenly deflating as suddenly as he had fired up.

Ash smiled and panted at the same time as Luke, the golden dog came to help him. Ash let him give him support. "Uh thanks kid." he said bluntly, not wanting to make any jokes right now. Once he had made it past the field of metal and back to where the rest of the dogs were, he layed down, listening to the dogs speak. "Guys, is our trainer, is he..." he heistated on saying the rest of the sentence when he heard a dog yell shriek calls, and looked over and saw Zack yelling at Ally. He pushed that aside, and waited for any sign of life from a human to rise from the truck.

Ally stared at Zack for a moment,Unable to believe The normally silent and Calm dog that shed travelled with had Just taken out his fury on her. She stood up "Come Back to the group when you ready Zacharia" she said Quietly. She walke dover again Silently, For once Unable to Find something to be pleased with. Everything seemed hoepless and Zack...No she thought firmly Zacks...Zacks just shocked, He probably would Have don The same to anyone else she told her self Wouldnt He? she pushed her uncertanties to the back of her mind. She looked for omeone to relay Zacks message to, She finnally Trotted up for Julie "Hey Julie" she said, Forcing a small smile. But the collies eyes were troubled, Betraying her hidden doubts.

Zack sat down again, COntinuing to stare away from the Group. The anger that Had buolt up so suddenly ahd slipepd away. leaving him to feel empty and almost dead inside. His breathing was almost silent as he Looked up at the sky. He Didnt want to return to the group just yet but He needed to apologise to ally. Everything wasnt her fault, she'd just happened to be in his way when He fired up.
