"Save.. save the kids!" she whispered when her body finally gave up. Her eyes closed assured that he would save the kids.
Her whole body was covered with marks and scratches. She must have been fighting with them for a long time.
He laid her gently on the ground as he ran towards the cave. There were more than a dozen babies and kids. Many of them were injured but all of them were unconscious.
Just what had happened last night? He still could not understand what had happened? He walked in and then checked the nerves of each of them.
"Phew!" taking a deep breath, he felt better. At least they all are alive. Though he was tired, he used his residual strength to heal all of them.
His eyes were getting dim but when he was about to collapse too, he noticed a few of them were taking deep breaths and opening their eyes.
He took out another dagger from his set and pierced his own skin with that dagger.
