Description
Glitch stepped out onto the arena. The sun and moon light streaming in through the open colosseum and sound of the crowd greeted her as she stepped out of the tunnel. Games- Glitch lived and breathed games. This tournament was one huge game, and she was living for it! As her eyes adjusted to the sights around her, her current challenge came into focus. Dogs. So many dogs. Some of them were running amok about the arena, some had fallen asleep, and some were trying to seek pets from the audience members. Two bathing areas were set up in the middle of the arena, with a wide selection of shampoos and grooming supplies to choose from set on a table between them. The challenge- choose a dog and groom it.
Her opponent seemed to be having some trouble wrangling their chosen golden retriever… Now it was time for Glitch to choose her dog. Well, of course, it was go big or go home! What was the fun in playing a game if you didn’t go all out with it? Glitch looked around the arena, mentally sorting through all the dogs available. Then she saw it. A huge, shaggy dog. It’s fur was dark, its snaggle-toothed muzzle dripping with slobber as it placidly observed the chaos around it. Dirt and mud coated its fur from laying around the area. It was almost twice the size of Glitch herself. That was her dog.
Glitch launched herself into a full sprint, the behemoth dog her destination. As she neared the behemoth, it noticed her. Hah, too late! thought Glitch, just before the dog jumped out of her way, leaving her to face plant in the dirt of the colloseum. Glitch shook her head and brushed the dirt off of herself. She smiled. A worthy opponent!
Glitch tirelessly chased the dog around the arena. Each time she thought she had it, the dog would leap out of her grasp. There had to be a better way… She got an idea! Maybe she could get the dog to come to her! Crouching down, she started cooing to the dog. “Come ere buddy! Come ere! Don’tcha wanna get clean? I betcha do! Who’s a good pubby! Who wants to get clean?~” The dog perked its ears up at her, making a derpy listening face with its tongue halfway out of its mouth as it cocked its head.
Just as it looked like it was about to come to her, however, literally every other dog in the arena barreled over to her at top speed.
Oh no.
Glitch was subsequently drowned in a sea of slobbery kisses and puppy paws. She didn’t know how long it lasted, how long she was trampled by a bunch of fluffy babies looking for attention, but eventually they got bored and went to look for attention elsewhere. When she finally was able to open her eyes without fear of having them licked or pawed, the behemoth was standing next to her. It looked into her eyes and she looked into theirs. They seemed to have come to an understanding.
Glitch got to her feet, the behemoth following her to the grooming station. Success!! She soaked the big dog with water, then lathered it with shampoo and conditioner. While rinsing the dog, it shook itself and spattered Glitch with water. It smiled at her with its big, slobbery, snaggletooth smile. Glitch laughed and smiled back. She brushed the dogs shaggy hair with one of the grooming brushes, making sure to get out any tangles and cutting out any mats.
When she was done, the behemoth was sparkling clean. The dog stood proud and beautiful on the grooming station. Glitch admired a job well done. The crowd cheered for the two competitors. Glitch wondered briefly who would win the competition. Right now, she really needed to go take a bath.
