As she walked through the ship Akila smelt a dog she didn't recognize. It was a very alluring smell. Almost like fresh pine and grass. Two smells Akila didn't get to smell often do to her life of the ship.

She followed her noise all the way to one cabin were the new guests were staying. In the cabin was a small black Scottie like dog. He was defiantly the source of that smell. He was a very cute dog. Just at that time he turned around to look at her and he froze too.

They stared at each other for what seemed like the longest time. Akila mesmerized by this strange, yet amazing dog before her. Then the Scottie started talking. She didn't hear the words, but all she caught was his name, Total, seamed to fit him well. But at that time her master called her and she unwillingly left. She was definatly going to see Total again. Or at least she hoped she would.
