Chase Scene
There was a rustle in the trees near the edge of the beach. Something moved. A gentle breeze swept through the air and a flock of birds rose out of the trees, scattering in all directions. They were fleeing from something. Some unseen monster that lurked just out of sight. But the monster didn't remain out of sight for long.
Suddenly bursting from the tree line came Jake. At full speed he bolted across the sand after some small furry rodent. His mouth was open and his tongue hung from one side like a giant derp machine. He zig zagged across the beach in pursuit of the rodent with surprising speed but couldn't match the other creatures agility as it continually evaded him. He didn't mind though. He was having the time of his life chasing this little critter.
His senses were all locked on his target. So much so in fact that he didn't even notice there were other people around until he barrelled into someones legs and sent them tumbling to the sand. Jake stumbled a little himself but was quickly back to his paws, looking for his new buddy.
Gone.
Where had the little bugger gone? Had he scurried off in the split second that Jake wasn't watching? He spun around a couple of times as he mumbled "Where did he go? Where is he?" Still no sign. He stopped, only now taking notice of the rather oddly dressed and gangly man he had run into. Jake noticed beak like nose of this man and the odd clothes he wore. There was something strangely familiar about him. Not that Jake particularly cared. He was still too interested in continuing the chase. He got right in the downed mans face, a little too close for comfort actually, and asked him "Where did he go? Did you see him?" not expecting the man to be able to understand him but noticing something odd about the sound of his voice. It didn't feel like it was just in his head anymore. The dog inadvertently slobbered on the man's face in his eagerness to find the rodent.
Before the poor victim of Jake's lumbering frame could respond though, something caught the dog's attention. He saw something out of the corner of his eye. Something moved. Entirely on instinct, he barrelled after whatever it was until he hit the shoreline and stumbled, falling flat on his face. A small wave smashed into him and snapped him out of his chase frenzy then. His mind at least somewhat cleared by the water, he quickly stood and shook as much of the water from his fur as he could.
The little blighter had gotten away but damn it, this place was fun. His tongue dropped out of his mouth again as he wondered what else he could chase.
