    A pure black shape raced through the forest. It's a pure black female wolf in her mouth she carries her only pup who is less than a day old behind her can be heard the heavy foot falls and clumsy movement of a twoleg hunter. Panic flashes through her eyes. Up head she spots a hollow tree and races to it as fast as can. she gently sets the pup down and licks it softly before she's gone trying to lead the hunter away from her precious pup. she planed to run the hunter tired and come back for it but a loud bang echoing through the forest followed by the gleeful shout from the hunter says differently. the tiny pup, now orphaned begins to whine softly. As the night goes on and the cold seeps into her thin fur her cries grow louder and she begins to squirm around blindly franticly searching for her mother. a few more hours pass and she is no longer crying or moving and the only sign that she is still alive is the faint rise and fall of her chest.

    Zara heard a hunters shouts earlier the day and immediately had taken to hiding in the thick foliage of the forest. She waited silently for what seemed forever and made her move once dark had fallen, she knew she must find shelter somewhere and so she looked. She soon came across a hollowed tree and decided she would stay there for the night. As soon as she entered he hollowed tree she immediately noticed the pup, she paused not sure if the pup was still alive or not. She noticed the pups tiny chest rising and falling and immediately curled herself around it trying to warm it up the best she could.
