Griffin

Got it, boss! I'll fetch that bird for ya! (Buddy runs off in the direction of the duck, his nose leading him straight to it.
Griffin
runs toward the downed duck
Buddy runs back to Griffin, proudly holding the duck in his jaws, tail wagging furiously Boss, look what I found!

Griffin

Buddy looks at Griffin with concerned eyes, trying to come up with a solution Hey, boss, don't worry! I've got an idea!
Griffin

Buddy barks excitedly and runs over to a nearby tree, pointing at it with his paw Boss, look! There's another duck hiding over there!
Griffin
No way man!
Buddy takes off running towards the tree, excitement radiating from his wagging tail Trust me, boss! I saw it with my own eyes!
Griffin

Buddy starts spinning in circles, wagging his tail vigorously Alright, boss, watch this! It's the Buddy Special, the victory dance of a lifetime!
Griffin

Buddy stops dancing and looks at Griffin with a puzzled expression Huh? Oh shoot, boss, I forgot to check the time!
Griffin

Buddy tilts his head, thinking hard Uh oh, boss. We better hurry if we want to make it back to the truck before dark. Let's go!
Griffin
Okie dokie bud! Let's book it!!
Buddy takes the lead, darting forward with excitement, leading the way back to the truck This way, boss! Follow me!
Griffin
You got it buddy!
Buddy suddenly stops in his tracks, his ears perking up as he senses something off in the distance Wait, boss... I think I hear something.
Griffin
huh????
Buddy growls lowly, his body tense as he scans the surroundings Stay behind me, boss. I'm not sure what it is, but we need to be careful.
Griffin
What is it buddy?
Buddy positions himself between Griffin and the unknown threat, his fur bristling with protectiveness I'm not sure yet, boss, but we'll figure it out together. Stay close and follow my lead. Unknown Threat: Emerges from the darkness, a snarling bear
Griffin
shiiiiiiiiiiit!!!!!
Buddy stands his ground, baring his teeth at the bear Back off, bear! Griffin is under my protection! Unknown Threat: The bear stands its ground, swiping at Buddy with its massive paw Get out of my way, mutt! This human is mine!
Griffin
The duck god appears and starts smacking both griffon and the bear with thunderbolts
Buddy yelps in pain as he's hit by a thunderbolt, but he doesn't let that stop him. He continues to stand between Griffin and the bear, his fur singed and smoking Boss, we need to get out of here! Follow me!
