Chapter one:
Light who is a purebred short haired German Shepard that is mostly brown with a few spots of black was born into a family of police dogs which he and his little sister are seen to continue. Light however has never wanted to be a police dog and he has always felt a pull to something beyond the work of a police dog. He did like what the police dog's did but something just didn't sit right with him when he was doing training or when he was testing out work. He is now pretty much as big as he's going to get and close to being an adult dog which he should be preparing to enter the police force but he's lying on the couch in the home he was born in. He sighs and his brown eyes flicker to the window seeing a trailer, that doesn't need to be attached to a car as the car is a part of the trailer, drive by. He doesn't really care for it but he raises his head when a black lab and wolf mix looking dog pokes his head out of an open window.
The black lab wolf mix looking dog is beautiful and is a good mixture between lab and wolf. The mixed breed has the ears of a wolf and a strong but slim looking body as far as Light can see.
Light jumps up and runs to each window following the trailer until it's out of sight but as he tries to find another window he runs into his father. His black collar isn't on him at the moment but his father's tags from his collar jingles when Light runs into him. He looks up to his father who is a little taller than he is.
"What exactly are you doing?" Light's father asks him, the humans call him Soichiro.
"I was watching something. That's all." Light tells him looking to the closest window going over to it looking outside.
"Ah I see. Your police dog skills kicking in?" Soichiro goes over to stand beside his son.
Light looks away. "No Dad. I like what a police dog does but it just doesn't sit well with me." He sighs. "I don't think I'm supposed to be a police dog."
"What are you talking about Light? You don't have a choice in this." Soichiro rushes over to his son's side. "The humans expect us to help them with their police work and that is what we will do. There's no running away from it Light." He starts walking away. "Remember that. You will enjoy being a police dog." He disappears into the kitchen.
Light shakes his head and he looks out the window again this time imagining the mixed dog he saw. "I want to meet that dog." He says to himself.
"Light!" Misa calls as she runs towards Light. She is a purebred blonde afghan hound who is the dog of a famous model. She is sometimes even a part of her owners job and she has many male dogs panting after her. She has her eyes set on Light though even though he has rejected her.
Light groans in annoyance. "Not you Misa." He growls folding his ears back.
"Awww come on Light you love to see me." She jumps up onto the outside ledge of the window that is actually open enough to let in a breeze. "Come join me outside! The weather is great!" She wags her tail.
Light shakes his head turning his back to her as he walks away. "I'm not interested in seeing you Misa so go away." He says as he runs into the kitchen towards the backdoor just wanting to be away from Misa. He hears Misa's owner call her and Misa calls her goodbye to him before she leaves to go to her owner. He sighs in relief and perks his ears up glancing around making sure his father had left the kitchen which he finds he's alone in. He goes through the back doggie door and into the backyard taking a deep breath of the outside air.
"Well well look who's outside." A familiar voice says making him look to it. Standing on his hind legs with front paws on the fence and tongue lolling out as he pants is Mikami. He is a purebred black lab who also happens to be training in the police force work with Light and Light's sister.
"Hey Mikami." Light greets him making Mikami wag his tail.
"Did you hear? There's some street performances in the park coming for a week deeper in the town." Mikami says. "Want to check it out? Takada is coming."
Takada is a dark brown lab who is Mikami's girlfriend as well as being Light's ex. She is the other next door neighbor to Mikami and her human is a T.V. reporter.
Light shrugs. "Sure. I don't have anything better to do." He agrees.
"Great. It's starting this evening. Meet outside this evening." Mikami jumps off the fence and runs to go see Takada as she comes outside.
Light walks to a nice sunny place and lays down closing his eyes enjoying the warmth as well as wondering if he's ever going to see that black mix breed dog again. He has a feeling that it'll be soon and he hopes so. He couldn't do anything but watch the dog.
Meanwhile Soichiro stands at a window looking to Light from inside the house.
Light's mother comes over while Light's little not full grown sister Sayu starts playing with a toy in the living room.
Light's mother, Sachiko, sits beside Soichiro and she looks to Light with him. "He just needs a little time. Don't worry." She licks Soichiro's muzzle.
Soichiro sighs. "I know but he is going to be a police dog however he doesn't even want to be one."
"He will come around." Sachiko tries to calm her mate. "Just give him time and possibly the right partner."
Soichiro looks down. "Yeah maybe you're right." He agrees and leaves when their owner calls him.
Sayu is old enough to be able to be on her own in the house with Light so both of the sibling's parents leave with the owner to go do work.
Light takes a nap until it is time to go with Mikami and Takada to the performances.
