Fragmented Hope

Esperanza heard Elan speak of water as she lay down in the cool shade. Her body began to continue shaking, but only for a small bit of time. Her fur whipped around slightly as some of the breeze from the shade cooled her, but not entirely for sand had hit her black form and made it appear like she had brown splotches on her coat.

She finally had enough energy from the shade to open her eyes and looked at the way Elan was digging away at the clay. She stood and began to paw away at the clay also, no matter how tired she was.
