“HELP!”
Her heart beat faster than it ever had before. The cold wind whipped at her face as she ran along a mountain path, freezing the tears that streamed down her face to her cheeks. She could hear the mountain lion behind her. Its paws were quiet on the snow, but she could hear its breath and feel the hotness of it on her hind legs as her legs carried her haphazardly over the frozen terrain.
She had certainly not expected her day to go this way. It had been a fine morning. She and her sister, Roselia, had been herding their sheep along the yearly trail they traveled and had been progressing down the mountain at a fairly good pace until they heard rocks moving above them. They had looked up to see the mountain lion looming above them, and before either of them could react, it had pounced down on them and their flock. Everything after that moment was a blur. One second the big cat was chasing their sheep. The next, it had turned toward her sister, and then it was hunting her. At least she had been able to deter it from her younger sister though. Roselia was safe and sound… at least for now. Her emotions ran rampant in her head, and she could only imagine that her blessing was only urging the beast to follow her even more. ‘Oh Kaia, why did you have to bless me with Beast Summoning? Why not something a little less dangerous?’ Her blessing would be the death of her just like everyone had predicted.
Ezmeralda rounded a bend in the path, cutting the corner hard in hopes to gain more ground on the large cat, but instead, her heart sank at the sight before her. Nothing. The ground opened up to the sky, leading nowhere but down from where she was at, and it was definitely a drop that she wouldn’t survive unless she had wings. Her green eyes widened, clearly showing how terrified she was. This was it. She whirled around, keeping her long tail between herself and the large cat as it came to a stop. It knew that she couldn’t escape. The beast knew it had won and that it would be rewarded with a meal once it had successfully taken her down which probably wouldn’t be too hard. Ezmeralda was no trained fighter. She was a herder for Kaia’s sake! Of course, predators tried taking her sheep during their months of traveling in the winter, but that was just a matter of scaring the beast away. This cat wasn’t about to be chased off.
It was hungry, and she was on the menu.
