The fragile pup was thankful for the silence. The stranger's silence had lulled Ruri into a false sense of security that perhaps he had gotten bored with her and was done tormenting her. Her tired limbs had relaxed and she was simply enjoying the brief opportunity to rest. However, when the male's voice spoke up, the merle and ivory pup was snapped back into a state of alarm. He, of course, sounded anything but sincere with his words and her self-preservation instincts were kicking in. Judging by what he had said, what was going to come next would not be pleasant for the small, blind pup. As quickly as her shaky limbs allowed, Ruri stood up and began walk away hoping that the direction she had picked did not contain any bushes or trees that she would run into. At her young age she had not yet learned how to travel without her sight. This made her rather slow and clumsy. "N-no t'anks, I don' need no help. I'ma leavin'." she tried to explain, knowing that her words meant nothing. Now, after all that this older pup had put her through, Ruri was frightened. Not to say that she had not been scared before, but this time the pup's voice had been a little different, like he was more serious in his intent to hurt her. She didn't want to be hurt anymore. She would leave as fast as she could and never bother this pup again. Unfortunately, her instincts told her that it would not be so easy.
