Kala's "daughter" hardly reacted to the offered nuzzle. She didn't say a word, dull eyes watching as the bear lumbered away in search of food. She wanted to stand up and walk out of the cave, call for help, but she didn't have the strength. She had been kept safe underground for nearly two weeks, that first sumptuous leg of deer giving way to lean rations of berries and greens that only made her ill. Kala meant well and treated her just as she would her own cub, but that was the problem; she had unwittingly held the puppy hostage and starved her to boot.
It was only Galaxy's fat that kept her alive, though it was lone gone now. She lay there in the cave's mouth, head tipping sideways to feel the sun's warmth for the first time in many days. It pooled in her pale, sunken cheek. She looked like a skeleton wrapped in a ghost. Anyone who stumbled across her might very well think they were looking at nothing but the poor girl's earthly remains... which might be true sooner than later. Galaxy didn't have much time left.

She's about 2 miles away from Kala and anyone's welcome to find her. :)
