The idea of taking a nap had certainly not been exciting for the rambunctious little puppy, but Artemis had complied, much to her dismay. Soft blue eyes had fluttered open many times during the beginning of their nap, the silver-tipped puppy hoping beyond hope that she would look outside to see that the rain had stopped. No matter how many times she peered out anxiously, though, it did not net her the response she wanted: it still rained. Eventually, the puppy had fallen asleep, though she had fought it tooth and nail. She did not want to sleep, she wanted to go play and explore and do a lot of fun things! She wanted to go outside and do stuff out there, too! The mansion was just not enough for the little girl.
When she felt the gentle nudge of her mother's nose, Artemis was up as fast as lightning, bouncing in her spot on the bed. It seemed she had not been sleeping very soundly, considering how quickly she woke up. She grinned excitedly, tail wagging fast enough to possibly hurt something. "Are we gonna go out now, Momma? Are we going to go do something?" she yipped, still bouncing in the spot where she stood. Briefly, she remembered having been scolded at one point or another for jumping on the bed—some such ridiculousness that she could hurt herself—so she quickly plopped herself down, tongue hanging out as she smiled hopefully at her mother. She was the first one up, and she was getting very anxious to go do something!
She really wanted to pounce on her brother and sister and make them wake up, but she did not think that they would appreciate it. She had done it enough times to know this for a fact, actually. Instead, she bounced up again, bounding to the edge of the bed, her butt wiggling in the air as she tried not to fall off the edge. "Come oooon, let's go!" The little Marino was not very good at being patient, and her mother had told them they'd go do something. Naturally, she was giddy with excitement, which caused her to topple off the bed in a heap.
