Sable's cry caught Ace by surprise, from all the possible scenarios he never thought it'd come down to that."Oh no no no no please, don't cry, just..." He searched quickly for the rights word to say, he couldn't bare watching her like that and he had to make her crying stop fast. He thought about what she said and he understood why she felt like she wasn't capable of making it on her own, after all when you're a pet you are always under the care of humans, specially with all the special cares a show dog needs. Then the answer hit him so fast he couldn't help but smile."Hey, I'll tell you what... if you do come with us, you will be under my protection, I'll take care of you and I'll help you learn everything you need to make it in the wild, you'll be my protégée, what do you say?"

Human: He came and grabbed the little girl. He hugged her tight and took her home. Bandit didn't even get to spend a day with her. He walked away, looking for Cassy. Bandit looked around and saw something move behind a tree. He barked at the tree. And soon enough another human came out with a leash.

Ignis walked up to the three and heard Sadie's story. "Pfft, that's ridiculous! Seriously, do those dogs thing paradise actually exists?" She thought to herself, but kept quiet. She saw Shade walk up to the dogs and listened to his plan. "That seems like a good plan! , she said, smirking.
"I'm coming with you, guys. I may not believe in paradise, but I want to get out of here!" She was really enthusiastic about this.
Finally, she could be free again, away from this pound she loathed. It almost seemed impossible in her eyes that finally, maybe they will get out. Finally, she could roam the streets... And knock some sense into the others' heads! Because paradise does not exist, and it never will.
Ignis was of course way too small to jump through the fence, so she waited for the bigger and more agile dogs to dig through.

Ooc: Writers block! Sorry guys, this is rather rushed D8

Cassy: She ran around until slamming again into Bandit. They both tumbled down a small hill and straight into the path of a human with a gun. Bandit was out cold from the hard landing and Cassy tried to move him. She whined and shouted into his ear. When he had got up he was so paralized with fear he didn't move. Stalling their escape by a couple seconds. Bandit made it out but Cassy got shot in the leg. They ran into the forest and cleaned her wound.

Ooc:// LionLover, I am really sorry to have to do this, but I am afraid that I have to remove you from this roleplay. You are not paying attention to the basic plot of this roleplay and are not interacting with the other roleplayers. I have never done this before and try not to be too picky about who I allow to join my roleplays, but you're posts do not add anything to this story and are mostly just a distraction. Again, I regret doing this, but I feel that I must. Please do not post again on this topic. If you have any questions or complaints, please just PM me.

Bic:// Sadie smiled as the rest of the dogs all pledged to join her and her brothers on their journey to paradise. She could barely contain her excitement when Shade and Romeo arrived just in time to announce their escape plan. She decided she would help Shade dig from the other side since it seemed that she could jump over the fence, but she noticed Sable walked away from the group with her head down cast. Although Ace went after her, Sadie felt that she shoul also help since it was her paradise idea that seemed to have Salble upset. Sadie trotted over to the two dogs, but imediately saw that Ace had the situation under control. Realizing she really wasn't need, Sadie made a running start from where she was towards the fence. She leapt over it, barely high enough not to scratch her belly on the top of the fence. Once it was clear, though, Sadie landed less than gracefully on the grass outside of the kennel. She struggled to regain her balance and ignored the fact that her hind foot screamed in pain everytime she places weight on it. She pushed this from her mind and started to dig through the ground next to her brother.

After hearing the idea of paradise, Jackson had stayed to still for quite a while. After his time in the pound, he had become rather attached to the dogs there with him, though he would never admit that. As the others all agreed to go to paradise with Sadie, Shade, and Romeo, Jackson also stood up and said, "I'm going too." He listened to Shade's escape plan and nodded his agreement. Although he was much too bulky to risk a leap over the fence, he knew he might be strong enough to break through the tough ground on the inside. As soon as Shade and Sadie were over the fence, Jackson ran to the spot beside the fence where they were diging on the other side, and Jackson tried to rip through the thick grass planted there. It took some time and effort, but Jackson soon broke through to actual dirt. Although his progress lagged behind that of Shade and Sadie, he hoped he was doing something to help.

OOC: Nah it's okay I was going to tell you I was dropping out and I was waiting for others to interact with me. I slammed into Ace because I wanted to spark a conversation and I went to the siblings group also to spark a conversation but every ignores me here so whatever.

Ace turned to see how the rest of the group was doing, Jackson had already managed to dig from the inside, while Shade and Sadie were no where to be found which indicated that they were the ones digging from the outside. In just any minute an escape route would be made and from that moment they'd have seconds for all the group to escape before their backyard time was over and the dog catcher came to put them in the kennels again. Ace's smile changed quickly into an expression of clear desperation and nervousness as he turned back to Sable."Please Sable,trust me... come with us...I'm begging you."

"W-What?" Needless to say, Sable was surprised by Ace's proposal. Her become his protégée? Be under his protection? She definitely concluded that he wanted her to go with them. But why? Sable wondered to herself. The others didn't seem too interested in wanting her along, so why did Ace exhibit such an attitude? She thought about it and concluded that she would ask him later when she was given the chance. Now she looked at Ace and how desperate he was becoming. The others were already going through with their plan to leave. He needed her answer now.

But what would Sable choose? Life beyond a human's touch was an uncertain place for her. She could still say no and go back to the shelter to await being picked up by a human. Or she could go with them, her friends, and discover this paradise for themselves. She hesitated a bit before coming up with an answer that so easily slipped from her mouth that Sable was a bit surprised she even said it: "Okay Ace... I'll go to paradise."

OOC:// Bump!

Ooc: I'm sorry, but I think I have to drop out :c I'm too busy these days.

Ace smiled proud of his accomplishment, he was out of words from the happiness that Sable's reply caused him but more than everything it was how she replied, even though she may seem doubtful about the idea of looking for paradise, on the inside she was starting to believe and the only thing they'd need was to appeal to Sable's self-confidence, she thought of herself as a show dog pet and nothing more, Ace's new challenge would be to make her see everything she was, but he'd need the whole group's help, and the right moment to prove he's right.
Ace nodded still smiling, he just couldn't hide his emotions right now."Right...the dog catcher shouldn't be long now so we need to go see if Jackson needs any more help, alright?"
