Chapter Fourteen – Oggie

This is the life, Augustine Purpose Talbot thought as he scratched his back against some tall grass on a riverbank. He had just finished catching and eating his lunch, what was left of the fish would not satisfy a small bird. The sun was shining down, his belly was full and the itch on his back had just been scratched. If the more-than-man being known as Talbot had been with him everything would have been perfect. Tommy had made it very clear to him as a whelp that it was important he always stay with the special two-legger, as it was necessary to do so to cure the Talbot-man from his illness. At first, Purpose had thought this was going to be more than he alone could do. The Talbot-man’s depths of despair seemingly had no bounds. He was steeped in his own futility.

The love had come quickly enough between the two. Then it just became a matter of the Talbot-man grabbing ahold of that feeling and floating to the surface from the abyss he had been submerged in. After that initial trial period, Oggie, as the man was apt to call him, couldn’t have been any happier. Their life together mostly consisted of eating, playing, belly rubs, and sleep. It was as close to perfection as he could imagine. When they struck out on the road, things got more difficult, but if anything they grew closer as they explored this vast new world. Oggie loved the attention having more humans around entailed. Besides the Talbot-man, he loved Azile, Bailey, Lana and, especially, Tommy. It hurt his stomach to think too much about the death of his friend. The ancient boy who was more than he seemed and more than he portrayed was always quick with a smile and a hidden treat the likes of which Oggie had never had before.

The one Tommy had called peanut butter was among the most delicious things he had ever eaten, his muzzle salivated at just the thought of the tasty morsel. His sadness at Tommy’s death had been compounded as he watched Talbot-man spin down fast from the loss. Oggie had promised he would not leave his side until he was sure that the man would not retreat back down to where he had come from. Waves of madness and revenge had radiated from his pack-mate and friend for days as they traveled in a hunt for the Lycan and saw the savagery the Lycan committed wherever they went. Oggie understood the need to eat, and he knew enough by how hard rabbits, deer and pigs ran from him that they valued life as much as any other creature. That they died so he could live was not lost on him. It was the way of the world. Most of the world. Some men would kill, and not for the basic premise upon which life demanded. The Lycan were worse; they killed with the sole purpose being the eventual extinction of another species.
