Short 1-3 Paragraph Story: The weak sneaker female struggled for breath, her mate worriedly watching as her pups pushed out. As the mother's breathing grew fainter, a female pup was born. Her two brothers were dead. And now, so was her mother. The male quickly carried Zara away from the den and gave her some meat. He was scared, as it was a bad time for pups. A few weeks later, Zara was walking and proved to be a strong fighter. It looked good and her chances were higher. But her story was not a good one, all the same. One night, she was sleeping, a group of humans snuck to where they were sheltered. Zara's father heard the noise and came out to see what was happening. A single poison arrow took his life. That morning, Zara did not find the body, for the humans had taken it, but she smelled blood and poison and fear and death. She had no time to mourn, for she needed food. After hunting, she found a very young human. Her first thought was to kill her, but she saw that she was hurt and seperated for her parents. She felt sorry and gently offered her some meat. She looked up and fear-scent caught Zara sharply but she saw the meat and gently petted her. Zara decided to keep the young human as a companion. She gave her food and water and shelter and the human and Zara became good friends. The human was starting to learn her language and wanted to stay with her. While Zara hunted, the human fished in the stream and collected herbs for healing. But one day, Zara was walking with the human when an adult human came out of the trees nearby. It came at Zara but the young human rushed at him and yelled in human language for him to stop. He looked at the human, then at Zara. He gave the young human a rope and started talking with her. Zara looked at them puzzledly. Her friend came over and loosely tied the rope around Zara's neck, then walked ahead, wanting her to follow. They came to a human village. Zara was in a cage now, and her former friend was with the humans. Then, Zara saw something that chilled her blood. on the wall, was her father's pelt. She know she had to escape, so one day when the humans let her out to play with the young humans, she ran. She ran as far away as she could, until all traces of human scent were gone, and finaly, she found a cave and rested. It was a beautiful place, there was aa perfect stream with a drinking hole and lots of nice soft moss. There was plentiful prey and Zara knew it was the perfect place to live. She rubbed around it to show it was hers, and there she lived for the rest of her life. The End!
(Yeah I know, a lame ending, but I wanted it not to be an ending where she dies)
