In the solitude of an empty and sad camp

Sonia, listen to the wind in the trees to drop piles of snow from the branch, she can not help trembling at every noise ....

A moment she hears furtive steps, slides, sounds crushed branches .. she listen carefully trembling with fear, and if hunters comers to capture her, so she snuggled into her improvised hiding her and Dani were found, they crawling under a pile of fallen rocks, a little way that only the animals or women can take it as it is very small ....

Hidden behind this pile of rocks in this natural chamber under the mountain, with Dani she eventually bring some fur to make this a little nicer place by lighting torches with tissue soaked in tallow....

She didn't remember how long she is prostrate here in that narrow space...

Speaks softly to herself, knowing that no one listening, but she feels compelled to speak for not become mad ... How long, how long is she there in the cave?

She does not know has stopped counting long time, do not see the light of day or night ... she hears the larl or wild panther hunting in the deserted camp...

Wild beasts must feel her smell but can not find her traces in the cave ...

She is sitting on the fur on the cold ground, knees bent against her chest the enclosing with her arms and prostrate, this way she feels safe...

Suddenly wakes up a noise, a crash she thinks that these are the sounds that woke, she does not know or maybe she dreamed ... she can not say as her mind is foggy ....

She opens terrified eyes, nothing ......

Black night, the silence so sudden that noise that may have awakened ... she rubs her eyes trying to see in the darkness of the cold, damp cave, she does not remember falling asleep the night before or the morning, she does not know has no sense of time passing ...

Her stomach growls, she has not eaten for several days, her dry lips to moisten she tries from time to time with her ​​saliva she harder to produce as she is hungry and thirsty ...

She should come out of hiding, she should move out, to drink and also to eat something that takes a her empty stomach .... but she was afraid and all the noises she heard since yesterday does not reassure, she wants to live to survive and must be motivated to look for.....

After several ihn that seem a eternity for her. Long before she takes a decision, she finally force out of the cave under the mountain, again she creeps under the pile of fallen rocks for thousands of years before ....

But before leaving, she took her knife, a knife whose handle was carved from a tooth sleen, pretty drawings roam the handle to its full height, a slightly curved short handle that go perfectly fine in her sutured scars hand , as if the knife was manufactured in model on her hand, a long thin blade and tapered ends that knife ... she hold the knife in her right hand and began to crawl under the small passage where only a woman or some small animals can pass....

Finally Sonia ended up out of hiding, she blinked as a distinct glow illuminates the place where she emerges ...

One second largest cave, with a higher ceiling and some lights from small wells far above her head or a sunbeam illuminates the walls of the cave, she keeping a moment the knees always on the cold floor, she stand up with difficulty she shudders as she feels on her emaciated body and tired a stream of cold air, a seeming freezed kiss coming from outside freezing her almost naked body trembling.....

She shakes her head, then listen carefully to the sounds, the sounds around her, wind noise on the outside she feels she listen if animals turn in the camp, but she heard nothing of any growl, grunt indicating that a beast lurks in the shadows, she feels somewhat reassured and finally decided to walk to go outside to the campfire, and there she hopes to find some food and water to drink ...

Gently she puts one foot before the other, her whole body is only pain as the blood began to flow normally through her veins, her nerves relax slowly launching electric flash sudden and fast .... Sonia starts slowly to walk one foot before the other while her body hesitant in the semi-darkness of the cold cave...
