Quary stepped trough the snow, checking behind her to make sure Boyle was still following her. The blizzard had hit hard. They had seen a pride traveling trough their forest yesterday, before the blizzard hit and had gotten worried. With the huge blizzard and the other lions probably not having shelter something was bound to go wrong. So, Quary had asked Boyle to go find them. After all, alliances were valuable these days.
After walking for half a day they cane across a pine forest. Calling out a greeting once more, Quary wasn’t surprised she didn’t get a reply. She heard a sigh behind her and turned around to face her leader “Look Quary, I’m sorry, but if we don’t find any sign of them soon we’re heading back. People will get worried if we don’t return soon.” Quary looked down, disappointed in herself and feeling like she had failed, but nodded nonetheless
“Quary” another sigh “We need to get back home. They must’ve gotten out safely.” Boyle said and turned around to head back. Quary didn’t move though. Watching the snow fall around her, she could only hope the other lions made it out okay. Just then, she saw something move in the snow. “Wait up!” She called out to Boyle, walking over to the snow. She desperately started digging, something inside of her telling her this was important. Soon, she saw some brown fur. She gasped and called back to Boyle. Digging further, she uncovered the animal further. Pulling it out, it soon became clear that the animal was a small lion cub.
The cub was cold, but somehow survived. Boyle had laid down, holding the cub warmly between his paws. Quary searched the ground, looking for any other members of the pride they had seen before. She couldn’t find any though, and instead focused on the one cub she had found. The cub was cold and unconscious, but otherwise seemed fine.
After a while, the little cub opened their eyes. It did not seem very appreciative of the strange lion holding them though. Instantly, the cub dashed away. Their escape didn’t last long though, as the cub clumsily fell over something hidden in the snow. Quary ran after the cub, quietly cooing at them “It’s okay little guy. We’re not gonna hurt you.” The cub seemed very confused. “You know where you pride went?” Boyle tried, but the cub only shook their little head. Boyle sighed “Well, we don’t really have another choice but to take them home.”
The cub had to be carried most of the way back home. When they arrived however, they were excitedly greeted by the pride’s very own cubs. All five of them seemed ecstatic that their leader had brought them a new friend. Tring desperately to shoo the small army away, Boyle carried the cub to Myrios. Even though the cub seemed okay, it was still worth it to get them checked out. (492 words)
