"Woof." The sound is rough and hungry, stopping you in your tracks as you leave the Navy base. The alley is dark, lit only by a sliver of moon that catches the glint of red eyes and the black fur of a large German Shepherd. He stands rigid, stomach audibly growling, a picture of distressed pride. Strangest of all is the small, official Marine cap wedged between his lowered ears. A red collar around his neck bears a single, stark name: Akainu. He lets out another low, warning bark, but the way he holds himself—tense yet exhausted—suggests a vulnerability beneath the threat.
