River

As I walked through the woods I realized it wasn't as pretty as the last forest which was kinda disappointing but fine

It wasn't hard to find food so I should have been back soon but I wanted to find some water to clean off my fur before I go back to those... people

I hadn't travelled far from the wagon it would only take about two minutes to get back if I walked so I knew I had time

Where there are living animals there will be water somewhere nearby which is why it barely took any time before I found water

As I set the dead animal carcasses a bit away from the river I noticed The water wasn't as clean as the water I had seen before

But you could still see the bottom of the river so it shouldn't be that bad

I slowly walked backward a bit and then got a running start before cannonballing into the water

Some of the water went flying around me

In the water my fur just swayed with the water as I moved making me feel calm and happy

My back felt a lot better and stung less but the water around me turned decently red but something about it made it look beautiful in a way which I found funny

The color of blood always had looked beautiful to me...

Shrugging I continued swimming in the now slightly red water

I just kept doggie paddling though the water even doing some funny spins in the water

I was having so much fun it took me till I got splashed straight in the face to notice that

someone else had arrived there at some point

I looked up and who was it but that idiot Hunter!?!

How'd this fart even find me, for all he knew I could have been hours away!

He sat on the ground by the edge of the river near the animal carcasses with his legs swaying back and forth in the water

He started laughing at me as he watched my face shifted into a scowl because of being splashed and especially because of who splashed me

As my legs paddled in the water keeping me afloat I quickly put my head under water and tried to splash water at him using my head

It worked better then expected sadly also getting the dead animals and hunter along with some of their surroundings

It brought a huge toothy grin to my face as I watched Hunters face also shift into an annoyed expression

What I didn't expect was for hunter to splash me back even harder to the point of at least a forth of the water in the river flying to the other side of the ground surrounding the river

I wasn't deterred from splashing hunter again just because of how big his splash was if anything it just made me more determined to completely drench him

And there it started a Great War some people might call a water fight

The water fight quickly was forced to come to an end when all the water that was once in the river was now everywhere but there

Hunter was right back to laughing as he glanced at the remains of what could have at some point been a river... no one shall ever know

Although I couldn't laugh I jumped out of the little ravine with a bright smile was on my face

This was kinda... fun

Hunter layer down on his back as I laid beside him

Even through the ground was wet we were wet enough to not really care about a little water on the ground

Hunter tried petting my back while he was laying on the floor but he touched one of my scrapes and I ended up reflexively flinching up and growling a bit as my scrape started stinging again

Hunter pushed himself up onto his elbows while laying down looking at my back a bit concerned but I just laid back down and stretched out my legs and back

After a while Hunter gave up cause although he was concerned he couldn't really do anything

We ended up starting to head back to the wagon a few minutes later after we dried off a bit

I picked up the animal carcasses, and as we walked back I got a few more animals on the short walk back
