(So I'm making shadow a bit younger around three or four years old no hate)
Storms pov

I wake up to a door slamming shut and chains rattling as a human boy walks to my cage door. We make eye contact.

he seems nice but looks could be deceiving so I let out a cold angry growl raising my hackles in a threatening way to scare off the human boy. But it doesn't work he only gasps and chuckles and foolishly opening my cage door and steeping in.

He takes a step forward to grab me but I bite his hand in response, making sure he can't go anywhere I pull ripping the flesh I'm my mouth apart "hey hey out of there that dog is nervous and will bite!" Shouts my trainer as she runs in and forces me to let go by hitting my belly with a stick causing pain to wash over my body 'damn girl she got my bandage!' I let out a growl and lunges at the girl only to be stoped by the chain gate. She gasps and takes a few steps back as i continue to bark and snarl at them
1 year later
I lay by the cold concrete as more and more humans come and go hours spent looking out at the chained door waiting for someone to get me out of here soon a family of five come in and take interest in me "whoa she looks like a fighter!" Says a little boy the father takes a slip that hangs on my door "extremely aggressive and quiet was in army and abused." "Poor girl" the girl with them bends down and puts her hand in front of the door. I get up and walk over keeping my head down and sniff the hand 'cat,dog and another dog.' I back up after smelling her and lay down a bit closer. The girl gets up and says "can we have her daddy please" the others agree.

"Fine but who's going to be her owner?" "I will" says the women next to her "alright then we're settled we'll get her" I wag my tail a bit before standing up and reaching my snout put the hole I made last weak and licking the women's hand gently "aww your just a big softie aren't you." She says and she kneels down in front of me.

After a while I was out limping slightly next to the women and the man they open the trunk and I jump in and lay down drifting of to sleep.

Later
I wake up to the car stoping and door slams closed the women from earlier opens to boot and I hop out I look around the garden to see two dogs and a cat. "Easy storm." I didn't realise the growl the emitted from my throat I stop and trot next to the family as they walk inside.

"Alright storm. This is sassie,shadow and chance there friends so no biting" i look at the animals in front of me and study them. "Hi I'm sassie" "hi" is all I say as I slightly limp off to bed "hey! Come back here!" Shouts the pup next to a golden retriever I loon at him and grow making sure he wont get closer to me "Chance leave the the dog alone she needs to calm down." Says the retriever.

I lay down under a tree after leaving the house and wandering in the garden for a good spot to fall asleep. I close my eyes a bit, squinting when I see a shadowy figure in the garden just standing there. The smell of blood and gunpowder reaches me and I go into a frenzy. I get up quickly and charge at the man snarling and barking alerting the family inside the dad runs out to see me jump on the figure biting down with a scream to follow.

I back up the arm still in my mouth and I shake my head around tearing the flesh. "Storm?!" Shouts one of the kids the guy pulls out a knife and tries to stab me but I let go and move to his other arm disarming him in the process.

Soon the police are called and the man is arrested and took away "good thing that dog got him he's a phsyco path he's already killed a few people" says the officer I look at shadow as he starred at me I stare back not backing down. He then turns and walks off.

The dad of the family pets my head and walks in, I just go back to my spot under the tree.

When I wake up I see a bowl of dog food in front of me 'huh? How did i not wake up from the noise??' I think as I tilt my head to the left I get up and stretch and start to ear the food.

I soon here paws crushing the grass under the wait of another dog I look up raising my head and have a look at the strange pup in front of me "so....I was just wondering how did you get a psychopath like that last night to scream in pain?" "I bit him and thrashed my head to left and right and making sure to add more pressure with each second not sparing his arms." I reply in detail of last night "right so you were trained for dog fight?" "No I was in the army before my injuries" "oh"
