Thin beams of light snuck their way through the cracks of the sunroof the the once white car that Nefertiti had decided to reside in. The tan female began to stir as one particular sun ray caught her eye. It blinked slow in an attempt to adjust to the light. As Nef awakened she heard the soft sound of clicks and scrapes. She suck her head out of the opening where the door would of been to see where such a noise would be coming from. She smiled slightly as her brother appeared over a small trash heap. Dangling in his jaw was a rabbit. The first thought that came through her head was there was no way she was eating that thing, but then her stomach growled softly. It was just then that she realized how hungry she really was. She lifted her thin frame from the torn leather seat to greet her brother.
Alex had gotten up early to go hunt. He had retrieved some decent scraps and such from around the junkyard. His prize, however, was the rabbit he had caught. They rarely came into the dump and on any normal day he would of taken it straight to the pile for everyone else to enjoy. Today was a bit different though. Nefertiti was apart of the pack now and there was no way she was going to hunt for herself so he would have to help support her. He loved his sister, but boy was she lazy.
"Good morning sister. I brought you breakfast." He said happily after placing the rabbit at her paws. Nefertiti gave it a thorough look over before taking her first bit of wild animal. She neatly tore back the flesh and took a bite. If she could catch one of these things every day things might not be so bad in this disgusting place.
"This is good brother. " She finally said after eating most of the rabbit. "You can have the rest if you'd like"
Alex finished off the rest of the meal and then disposed of the carcass.
"I think today we shall leave this place for a while. It would be fun to get out and explore the city." Nef suggested.
"No. The city is dangerous." Alex replied curtly.
"Well I will be going with you. What is it that you are afraid of?"
"The people here are not like the ones at home. They can be mean. If one should spot you, you could go to the labs where they kill you...or worse."
"What could be worse than death?" Nef said with a chuckle.
"They could turn you into a Demeron. They are our enemies. These dogs should never be allowed to walk the Earth. If a dog should escape the lab they come back with special powers. Such things are evil and should be destroyed."
"Oh really? Well then we will have to be extra careful. Come along brother. I am leaving. Join me if you wish." Nefertiti called over her shoulder as she trotted to the junkyard exit.
With a sigh and a bad feeling in the pit of his stomach Alex walked along after her.
