Chapter 10: Ch. 10: Rescue
Em
As I wait I hear a howl and then a loud thump on my right, like a body being smacked into the ground a few moments later. I move through the brush, yep, the girl is on the ground. She looks injured, I move lightly, slowly to her, her breathing starts going faster. I stop, at least she's alive.
She moves her hand in a jerky way like she's struggling. I start moving to her again, my heart starts beating rapidly, this is the closest I've ever been to a human. I can see a lot clearer now, she has a long, deep cut on the side of her head, which is dripping blood. She opens her eyes and I freeze, her light, brown eyes are cloudy like she's in another place. I look around, I don't see the male or his tracks nearby, where did he go? I look back at the girl before me, I can't just leave her here, well I could because of what her kind did to me, did to my family, did to our kind. However, I have a feeling I need to protect her, I need to be near her.
I plan to take her to the cave, but… how? I glance at my knife-like claws and think about my teeth. I move my long neck down to her, and experimentally, close my teeth around her fluffy jacket, I feel her jacket being punctured as I slowly lift her fragile body into the air. I move my head around and stop when I'm facing my back. I flex my neck to lower her body onto my shoulders, she looks tiny compared to me. I open my mouth and she relaxes onto me, her roan hair stands out from my bright white scales.
I start walking carefully in the direction of the cave. Wondering what to do next…
