Adelle stood still, staring at the mouse that was across from her. It stood still, tiny nose quivering with fear. Adelle was a big puppy, and the mouse, even full grown, could easily fit under one of her paws with room to spare. It didn't dare move, not wanting to trigger Adelle's predatory instincts, and Adelle didn't move, not wanting to frighten off the first creature that she'd ever had the chance to hunt all by herself. The stalemate seemed like it would last forever, until the puppy's attention span broke and she lunged forward, barking with excitement.
Immediately the mouse skedaddled, zig zagging over the light cover of snow. It's tracks were easy for Adelle to follow, if the large trail she was leaving behind her was much easier for anyone who wished to find her. Darting expertly Adelle tried to catch the mouse, head barreling down and coming up with mouthfuls of snow for it's effort. At last the mouse escaped it's tormentor, diving into a small hole. Adelle stood outside it, barking and digging at the ground, trying to reach it.

[html] is this okay? / +lolno!
The sound of sharp little barks reached the fluffy white girl’s ears and her head jerked up, listening closely. Thankfully, she recognized the sound and it didn’t sound scared or stressed. Grinning to herself, Dixie dropped to her hands and knees and let the shift take over her body, a few minutes late she was scampering towards the barking on four paws, in her smallest form. Being so little was both an advantage and a hindrance. Most times she wished that she was bigger, so lifting and doing things would be easier…then other times she was happy for her size, because she was quick and could wiggle out of almost any situation.
Yipping softly to the puppy as she broke through a cluster of snow sprinkled branches, Dixie trotted over and flopped onto the ground, watching as Adelle attacked the snow again and again. Judging by the trail behind the little bundle of fur, she’d been hunting a small creature, most likely a mouse or a vole. You wanna know a trick? Dixie tilted her head at the pup and pulled her lips back in a friendly grin, her curly tail wagging back and forth slowly. If ya get real quiet and kinda lay down near the hole, the little things will sometimes come right back out…than you can pounce on ‘em again!

Adelle paused temporarily as Dixie broke through the snow. Just as large as her, Adelle wagged her tail happily. There was no one around her size normally. Not even Cadmeia was really big enough, and everyone else was taller than her by a lot. Soon enough she remembered her purpose, and resumed digging through the snow, growling menacingly at it. She would get the mouse if it took all day! The white dog flopped down in the snow next to her, simply watching quietly for a while before speaking up.
The frustration Adelle felt when she didn't understand everything someone was saying was insurmountable. As hard as she tried Adelle just couldn't quicken how fast she learned english, though more and more words were being figured out, her sentences less jumbled. Adelle caught trick, quiet, and come, but wasn't sure what the rest of the context was. Puzzled Adelle laid down quietly, doing the one part that she did figure out. She looked at Dixie expectantly, hoping that more would clear up.

It took a few moments for Dixie to realize that she’d spoken too fast and in too many words for the youngster to understand. She was always forgetting that the Vilhelmsen family wasn’t native to English speaking, and that the puppy was still having a hard time. Whining softly in apology, the fluffy white woman crawled closer and nuzzled the pup’s side gently, taking in her scent and storing it away in her memory. Adelle smelled good, young and healthy, and it made Dixie smile once again.
Nodding her head in the direction of the mouse hole, she pawed at the ground softly and then dropped her head on the ground and pretended to fall asleep. Shhhh…wait. Mouse come out. Watcihng the girl’s face, she waited to see if her slower, less wordy explanation would make any sense at all. If not, then she’d just sit with the pup and let her figure it out for herself, possibly help with the catch if it was needed. Honestly, the girl could totally go for a snack, as the shifting had burned quite a bit of energy. Perhaps a few mice or other small rodent like animals would help fill her tummy until she joined Wayne for dinner.

Softly the small adult worked her way over to Adelle. Quiet whines came from her. Adelle's side was nuzzled, bringing an answering movement from Adelle. She stuck her nose into Dixie's neck, sniffing it and nuzzling along before reaching her tongue out, licking at the dog's face. Her tail swayed behind her as Dixie backed up, and explained again. Immediately Adelle lit up. She'd understood everything she'd been told! Proud of figuring out what she had been told Adelle almost forgot what they were doing. After a few moments Adelle settled back down, body tensed as she watched the mouse hole, waiting for the tiny creature to come back out.
Concentrating on this was fairly difficult for her. Adelle was still fairly young, and patience was not in her list of natural virtues. Adelle's determination to prove herself though was stronger than the impatience coursing through her. It felt like a long time, but at last a quivering nose stuck out. Adelle's whole body began to quiver, breathlessly waiting for the mouse to come out the rest of the way. Assured that everything was alright it came out the rest of the way. Adelle managed to wait for two more heartbeats before launching herself at the mouse. It didn't have a chance to escape, flattened under her paw. Adelle barked happily at the catch, unwilling to lift her paw in case it escaped.

Dixie sighed softly; oddly happy with the affection she could share with the little female puppy. It was easy and effortless, and she didn’t feel awkward about it like she did after being affectionate with anyone else. Showing that kind of affection towards Wayne was okay…but any other male was weird, and the grown females? They seemed to not like it coming from her, so she avoided it mostly. Being able to express herself to the pup made her feel great, and she found that helping with pups could possibly be something that she should pursue in the future.
When the mouse skittered out again, Dixie tensed, ready to jump on it if Adelle wasn’t fast enough. Of course the pup reacted perfectly and had the rodent pinned beneath her paw within moments, making the white furred woman grin and stand up. Hungry? Eat it? Leaning over, she licked over the top of Adelle’s head a few times, nuzzling her ears and whining softly, happy and excited for the pup’s little catch. Good job!

Tail wagging she looked over to Dixie. The white dog stepped over, asking if Adelle was hungry. She looked down at her paw again cautiously. What if the mouse escaped when she lifted it? Chances were pretty good that it had died from being squashed so hard, but Adelle wasn't aware that she was unusual in any way, either by size or strength. The mouse was still very much alive in her mind. The praise and affection had Adelle rubbing into the female, made extremely happy. It wasn't often she was told good job, having to work to earn such a thing. When it was said though, it was well and truly meant.
Adelle stuck out her tongue, happily showering Dixie with licks. Looking down again Adelle lifted her paw slowly, expecting to see the mouse make a run for it. To her great surprise it was perfectly still, unmoving. Adelle nudged it with her nose. Still no movement. Tail wagging she grabbed it, shaking it around. Her first kill! It had been an accident, but her first kill! Dropping it Adelle turned to Dixie. Look! Proudly she nudged it over, unaware that Dixie had probably already realized the mouse's fate before she had.

The little one was so excited! Her excitement had Dixie wiggling around, giggling and yipping softly every few moments. Of course he little mouse was dead, as Adelle was already a fairly large and heavy canine. If a lot of her weight had been pressed down on the little creature, most of its bones would have been crushed within moments. The fluffy white female crawled closer on her tummy and nosed at the mouse on the ground, pushing it closer to the pup in an effort to get her to eat it. Eat it…then hunt more?
Dixie’s stomach was feeling rather hollow, and she knew that the mouse wasn’t going to be enough for the dark pup. Maybe she could take Adelle on another little hunting excursion and they could stalk some rabbits or other small creatures. Being a small canine, Dixie had mastered the art of catching small game, and passing on the tricks would be fun and beneficial to the pack as a whole. Making sure that another member of the pack would be able to care for herself alone if it was needed, was something very important in her mind.
Rabbits next? Yummmy! Grinning happily, Dixie stood up and hopped around the puppy, her tail wagging and paws lifting in a silly high stepping prance.

Adelle laughed happily as Dixie bounced around, yapping happily at the catch. Picking it up Adelle shook the mouse again before dropping it down. The mouse was nudged toward her, and tail wagging Adelle proceeded to eat the evidence that she'd managed to catch something on her own. Well, with a little help from Dixie giving her advice. Maybe. The mouse was tasty, and Adelle licked her lips happily before looking over to Dixie. She nodded her head, feeling hungry now that the mouse was gone. At the mention of rabbits Adelle bounced up.
Trying to mimic Adelle's bouncing movements looked very silly on a puppy with big clumsy paws, even if her body was on par with the adult. Yum yum! Not waiting for Dixie to show her where the rabbits were Adelle stuck her nose to the ground and started walking off at a fast trot, determined to find more tasty food as fast as she could. It didn't take long before the snow plowed over her, and Adelle was stuck, buried deep. Scrambling with her paws Adelle managed to pop her head back out. Blinking she turned and grinned sheepishly at Dixie. Not in snow.

Adelle was a cutie, and Dixie laughed softly as she followed the young pup through the snow. Thankfully the white powder wasn’t as deep or hard packed as it had been recently, as the weather had been warming up a bit. However, it WAS still deep enough for the pup to get stuck in a pile of it when she wasn’t paying attention.
Chuckling, Dixie trotted over and began digging, snow flying through the air behind her small body. Within a few moments there was enough room for Adelle to wiggle out. Maybe you should wait? Smiling and leaning over, she licked the pup’s ears and walked off again, sniffing around for a few moments before indicating that it was okay to follow. Shhhh, quiet…and slow.Dixie crouched down and moved slowly, her eyes and ears scanning for any hint of the rabbit she had scented.
There! The slightly off white color of the pelt caught her eye and she crouched lower still, crawling closer silently. Peeking back at Adelle for a few moments, she winked and then leapt at the rabbit. The thing was actually quite large, and hopped into the air as soon as it saw the fluffy white monster coming after it. Snapping her jaws closed with a ‘click’, Dixie caught the thing’s back leg in her mouth and threw it to the ground roughly, hearing a satisfying crunch of breaking bones as it hit.
Here, Adelle. Eat.

The white dog came over, digging Adelle out of the mess she'd managed to wander into. She shouldn't have started day dreaming about all the fat rabbits she would be catching all by herself. If she had she might have noticed the snow, and not ended up stuck in a big drift. Once there was room Adelle happily popped back out, tail wriggling as she licked Dixie with thanks for setting her free again. Told to wait Adelle frowned, settling deeper into the snow. She wanted to help catch the rabbits.
Signalled to follow Adelle's tail became a happy banner in the air. Doing her best to act serious Adelle pressed to the ground, not making any noise as she moved along. Stopping when Dixie stopped, moving when Dixie moved, Adelle became the perfect shadow for the small white dog. She grinned at the wink, sitting up with excitement as the rabbit was chased down. It wasn't killed by the back leg being broken, letting Adelle finish it off with a snap to the throat. Proud to have helped Adelle dug in, stuffing herself.
