"You have got to get out more!" Layland chuckled at his associate. Sam Ingleton was good at what he did.
A computer genius and an amazing hacker, Layland saw him as pretty damn valuable. But the poor lad only left his computer motitor to put Hot Pockets in the microwave.
"I'm going on a little exploration with a partnered Kennel this afternoon. Why don't you come along?" Layland wiggled his eyebrows at Sam.
"I dunnoooo....I've um...got stuff to do." Sam scratched his head nerviously. "I'm your boss and I say it can wait!" Layland said with a broad smile.
Sam frowned, but knew better than to argue with Layland. "I'll even let you ride on one of my finest Tokos!" Layland patted Sam on the shoulder. "It'll be fun!"
Later that evening, Layland and Sam met up with Penny and Zinny for their venture out into some unexplored territory.
The sky was magnificent this time of day! All the colors blending together in a wash of pinks and blues.
The ride was a plesant one. Layland took December to to the front of the pack for a little confidence training while Sam and Prospero weaved in and out of place constantly.
"Doing pretty good for your first ride!" Layland nodded at Prospero, "He's a really good boy. I'm glad he's taking care of you."
Sam was starting to feel more comfortable on the beast's back. "This isn't so bad." He smiled and ruffled Prospero's mane.
About 3 hours in, something 'unexpected' happened. Well, it was a regular occorance, but it had completely slipped Layland's mind to mention it.
Prospero came to a sudden halt and sat.
Sam, completely taken by surprise tumbled off of Prospero's back.
Layland, Penny and Zinny all burst into laughter. This was a little quirk of Prospero's and they had all witnessed it before.
