Atticus was often tormented by nightmares, that's for sure but this time his rest was followed by something different.
He had passed out in the medicine chalet after spending a whole night cleaning up and organizing herbs tidying things up one by one. With his eyes closed and body sprawled over the ground the dog would dream of a memory, one that didn't hurt.
Before being deported in Japan, Attie and one of his comrades, Gustave, decided to camp in Montana to celebrate their success in the military. The Dalmatian was once actually smiling in his sleep. They had picked a beautiful spot up north and Gus had brought a rifle with him, the man had his hunting license and was eager to get his Virginian fellow a taste of moose, so Atticus accompanied him out in the bush to hunt. The two young soldiers came across partridge and deer but it took quite a while to come across the ideal big game and it was a glorious specimen.
A huge bull with a dark coat and huge muscles, a male in the prime of his life. His rack, huge, his stature towering. Gus was quick with his shot, he took down the beast with ease, a true professional in the sport.
Attie remembered feeling emotional as the animal died, he felt sorry for the creature and couldn't help but feel pain and naturally he wanted to honour the animal. Gustave however, didn't make fun of his companion like the other soldiers did, he let Attie pay his respects towards the animals before harvesting what was good.
Moose meat was unique, Atticus was used to duck and partridge, but this game was tough and flavourful.
He remembered Gus inviting him to camp out after the war once they came back to the states.
After the war...
Atticus woke up at the thought and heaved out a long sigh, his breath longer than he ever expected it to be. He lifted his head and felt it to be rather heavy and as he looked down he saw huge brown hooved limbs curled underneath him and naturally he was frightened and quickly the male scrambled into his legs only to see the huge brown furred limbs uncurling and pressing against the wooden floor to lift his body off the ground. Before he could react Attie's head slammed into the roof with a crackle and immediately he froze and shook. These were his legs! He was huge! He felt rather nauseous standing at such a towering level. Even as a human he was rather short and now he just felt like he was constantly going to fall.
Once again the doctor tried to stand tall but the antlers upon his head hit the roof once again and he flinched at the sensation before looking at the door. He needed to get out of here!
Crouched as low as he could the giant creature stumbled towards the door and kicked it open with a hoof and he attempted to walk through the exit but his antlers would slam into the edges of the doorframe with a loud crash.
With a grunt of pain, the moose looked out the door to spot anyone in camp, calling out for aid:
"Guys! I-I need help gettin' outta here!" The bull would call out with a low chuff as he shook some wood chips off his rack only to feel dizzy from the weight on his skull
