Fragmented Hope

The rain poured as the downpour continued to come down in large droplets like a shower would to a human. Her radioactive colored eyes looked into the ones of Elan and nodded, "I'm fine as well," she spoke out in a gentle and friendly tone, "yeah, life happens to throw a lot of unexpected surprises at us." The humidity started to dissolve the coldness of the drops of rain and caused the clouds to soon disperse from the sandy region. The ebony femme poked her head out as the sound of the coyotes returned, this time with mournful whines and howls of their own. Esperanza could sense the sadness in the air from them. Apparently one of the coyotes must've not found shelter in time, or had collapsed in the flood waters and had drowned. The ebony brood understood that life could be cruel, but seeing someone who had just been trying to survive not survive at all, it brought a few tears to her eyes. She walked through the soggy sand and saw a female coyote laying in the sand, life completely sucked out from her, as well as the bundles of life that lay inside of her that had not even seen the world yet. "I am sorry for him, but there is nothing I can do for a deceased animal."
