" Mom, wake up?."
"Yes, honey," Julia turns, struggling to open her eyes."
"What is it, honey?"
"I am hungry and thirsty. "
Julia feels terrible. Her throat is sore, her head is hurting, her body is aching, she is still feeling feverish, and it's over twenty-four hours.
Julia struggles to stand up from the ground, using all her energy to push herself up.
Walking outside is bright. She does not have the energy to walk. Looking down at Kathy. "Honey, can't you ask Shadow to help you find something.
"I have. We can't find food around here."
"Julia looks up the hill. How much longer can you keep out?"
Kathy is hungry, "you can get some more rest; I will be fine."
"Thanks, honey."
Julia goes back Into the tent and goes back to sleep.
The sun is setting, and Kathy knows it will be soon dark.
She looks at Shadow, "I guess we are on our own."
Kathy walks deeper into the forest in search of food. The wolves are following her.
