❖ JESSIE VANNER
The port district was an unpleasant place to be. Litter filled the streets, and the murky ocean water below the concrete boardwalk couldn't be clean.
The boats that loomed from their docking places were large and ominous armored vessels, painted in earthy grey and green tones, though each bore the insignia of the land proudly as a badge. There were other boats, fishing vessels and cruise ones, as well as some privately owned yachts, and even a schooner. Yet it seemed like the military dominated the harbor today in a clear demonstration of might.
The sea breeze was the only thing that felt remotely clean right now, as the red-head teen watched the ships. It was vaguely nostalgic, in the sad sort of way.

Jessie felt bristled fur brush under her hand. Her hand closed around it, gripping it tightly. Jessie drew stability from the contact.

The black furred canine just looked up at her, wagging his tail like a normal dog. This kind of behavior was quite unusual for a hybrid canine of Cloak's type, but cloak had many unusual behaviors which .
Jessie smiled. "Is that so? you'll have to tell me more later."
She began walking down the concrete boardwalk, the massive dog keeping pace by her side. The sky might be stormy and grim looking, and the harbor boats, hinting at some sort of doomsday, but things were looking up for Jessie now that she was reunited with her man's best friend.
