"Roar!"A dirty and ferocious grizzly bear is currently baring its fangs to a child that looks like about 12 to 15 years old.
The child"s body is very thin, her hair disheveled and is covering her small and muddy face. Although she looks so small and weak, the silent killing intent is overflowing in her glaring eyes, her small and bony hands holding an unpolished but sharp dagger-like rock coated with a shiny liquid.
Although the child is trembling, but that didn"t stop her from being focused and alert.
"Mmffpphh.."
The child shortly glances at the tiny pup cuddling into its parent"s embrace. The mother of the cub tries to rea.s.sure her cub, but as the time pa.s.ses by, its blood is being drained little by little. The wound caused by the grizzly bear was very apparent.
"Roar!"
The grizzly bear look at the weak and dying mother wolf. Its eyes gleam, its hunger showing.
The bear pounced his hand and thought nothing of the rock in the child"s hand.
The child"s first reaction is to move and evade the attack, but she again heard the painful cries coming from the cub.
"Woo...awuuu.."
So instead of evading the upcoming and deadly attack from the bear, the child became motionless.
The bear swings its paw to the child"s direction that caused her to fly in several meters aways.
Cra.s.shhhh!!!
"Cough! Cough!" The child coughs the blood in her chest. She tremblingly stood up even though she felt the numbness of her body.
"Roo...ar! Rooo..ar!" The cub raises its head and tries to scare the grizzly bear with its high-pitched and funny bark.
The grizzly bear ridicules the cub. Although the cub"s breed is very powerful, but its still just a cub. And its mother is also hurt.
"Roaaa.. Roaar!"
The cub walks quiveringly in front of its mother. It must protect its mother!
As the child saw the protectiveness of the cub, she shouted at the top of her lungs:"Run! Ru...n!"
You will die!
Just run!
Please!
However, the bear and the cub didn"t pay any attention to her. The cub and the bear stared at each other. Yet, the other party is just too weak for its own and bowed its head.
Feeling the inferiority of the cub, the bear once again swung its black and scary paw. The bear suddenly felt a paralysing feeling coming from the its paw where a tiny rock embedded on it.
The cub already closed its eyes and was waiting for its doom when it heard a banging sound.
Boom!
The cub slowly opened its eyes and saw the big bear convulsing on the ground. The cub"s eyes shine.
Its dead!
It killed the bear!
But the cub"s joy didn"t last when it heard its mother"s whimpers of pain. The cub snuggles to its mother"s embrace to a.s.sure her that it already defeated the bear!
The cub was waiting for its mother"s response. But it only felt the degrading breath of its mother.
"She"s dead, we need to bury...her. So other animals won"t...try to eat her."
Although the weakness and pain are spreading in all parts of her body. The child still walks beside the cub and tries to pet it.
"Awooo...!"
The cub looks at her asking for help. The child in front of him tried to defend it and its mother, so she probably has a way to wake its mother!
Though the child felt what was the cub was trying to say, the child only shook her head.
"Awooo... Awooo..." The cub bites its mother"s chin to wake her up, but to no avail, the mother wolf didn"t respond.
While waiting for the cub to embrace the truth of its mother pa.s.sing away, the child took a branch nearby and started to dig a hole that can fit the mother wolf"s body.
When she"s already done digging, the child petted the cub and slowly pulls the mother wolf. The cub also tries to help her burying its mother.
Other scavengers might dig the place so the child dig away the soil sullied by blood and put it beside the grizzly bear.
Moreover, she planted a flower that emits p.o.o.p-like smell to repel other animals.
After everything was settled, the child and the cub sat silently. The child clasps her hands and prayed for the mother wolf"s soul.
Whosshh Whoossh..
The child glances at the noise near them. Her face was filled with panic.
She quickly raises the cub into her bosom and ignored the excruciating agony in her body. The cub tried to free itself but the child hold it tightly. She even felt its toothless gums biting at her.
They must leave already!
But before they could even reached a safe zone. A growl already welcomed them, fangs directed at her.
Swishh! Swish!
In front of her was the disintegrated body of the animal that was about to bite her.
The child looks at the person who killed the animal and felt pressure. The child frowned. The person was an old man, but his presence and danger level is much more extreme than the bear!
The child took a few steps back and guards the wailing cub in her embrace. She also tries to feel the surrounding environment. But no matter where she looks at... She and cub are surrounded by the powerful old man and several predatory animals.
The old man felt the chill coming from the tattered-clothed youth. He was curious on what the child will do after knowing that she"s already surrounded by beings that could crush her like an ant.
"Roar!"
A beast behind her started to pounce on her with great force. The child softly put the cub inside her clothes and used her arm as a shield. The child didn"t flinch away from pain of being bitten, but used her arm as a bait to deal a great blow.

The child swiftly took the remaining dagger in her waist to strongly pierce it to the beast"s skull. The beast"s mouth slowly looses its grip to the child"s arm and fell on the ground. It died on the spot, just like the bear!
The child bit her lips to stay awake. Her last move was fueled by her remaining strength, and there"s still other enemies surrounding them.
She can"t faint!
The cub is still inside of her clothes!
She needs to protect the cub!
Not yet... Just a little more...
However, her last will to stay awake cannot be catered by her weakened state. The child felt her body falling and her first move wasn"t to protect herself, but to use her b.l.o.o.d.y arms to form a protective state for the cub.
The old man caresses his long and silver beard. His eyes glinted satisfaction and took care of the remaining beasts. Other beasts run after witnessing their leaders being slaughtered.
The old man carried the fainted child, as well as the cub hiding inside the child"s clothes. He jumped from trees to trees and arrived at a huge temple.
