Adelisa shouted at Archeron, who was still gettin ready, "I'll cover for you!" Archeron, still in the shower, said back "thanks! I'll be out in a second!" She rolled her eyes and muttered to herself "more like an hour" before grabbing her purse and walking out of the house. A small smile appeared on her lips as she walked to where Archeron and her worked: the local animal shelter. It was Archeron's idea, but she was all too happy to oblige. It wasn't that far, seeing as they didn't need a car in the small town unless one went to the beach. She was not one to go to the beach, but Archeron would go a lot of the time. 

As she neared the shelter, she past a cafe, a library, a restaurant, and a set of homes until she finally saw the large Animal Care and Control Center sign in the front. Upon her entry into the parking lot, Adelisa noticed something was off. The animals were howling mournfully, showing signs of trouble ahead. Her walk turned into a sprint when she noticed the noise. As she ran into the center, she saw the concerned looks of the citizens. A heavy-set elderly woman with a sleeve tattoo came up to her in her large uniform, her name being Mary. Adelisa called her spitfire. 

"Listen, barbie doll, you need to calm those dogs down before I get slapped for a complaint and I end up getting arrested for assault on said complainer." Adelisa grinned and nodded, saying "ma'am yes ma'am!" Spirfire grinned and said "have fun! Where's pretty boy?" Adelisa smiled softly. "He's gonna be late. He had to go help his friend fix his car." Spirfire rolled her eyes and said "inthat boy actually came to work early that would be the miracle of a century." Adelisa laughed and said "he's good for it though." Spitfire nodded before going back into hustle mode. "I'll get some volunteers to help you." 

Adelisa nodded, both of them silently agreeing to run to where they needed to be. Adelisa sprinted off to where the dogs were held, her keys jangling against her bag made the dogs bark at her. [i]I could really use some help right about now, Archeron![/i] she thought, hoping for it to send to Archeron but knowing it probably wouldn't.
