Can't Drink You Away

*Jian* · 10-13-2013, 08:33 AM

Jian had waited patiently by the mouth of the den every day, watching and waiting for her mother's return. She would hardly play with her siblings any more and her body was thin and lanky from barely eating. Sometimes one of her family members would be able to drag her away from her post to eat at the very least, but it wasn't enough to keep her ribs from beginning to show on her sides. Her ice blue gaze looked out at the empty, lifeless forest, her hope slowly draining away. What if their mom never came back? What would they do?

Just as she had turned to go back into the den for the night, her black ears shot up at the sound of a howl. It was the voice she had been waiting to hear for weeks now. Her head snapped around to look over her shoulder, seeing the white form of her mother in the distance. "Mom!" she called out, scrambling in the snow as she turned to race toward the limping fea, her multi-hued paws carrying her as fast as they could toward her. Jian ran into Alena's forelegs with a soft thud, her tail going a mile a minute, and endlessly nuzzling her mom.
