Ekaptut raises her nose into the sky and sniffs the dry desert air. The heat stings a little bit but she can smell her prey. Unfortunately, she can't see it though. I hate the desert, I wasn't made for this place. She continues on, the pads on her paws cracked from traveling so far through the desert with little rest. Every step is painful as the salty sand enters the wounds each time. This is the furthest she has ever traveled from the den she was raised in. No matter how bad this place may be, it had to be better than going back there. If she were to return, they would kill her.
"Is it night fall already?" She had turned to face her companion but her legs failed her and she tumbled down the hill. Darkness surrounded her for but an instant then a cool sensation running through her fur as the light returned and she came to.
"Ekaptut! Ekaptut, are you alright?" Haktuyo, her male Serval companion pounced down the hill towards her. He owed her his life, he couldn't let her down now.
She lay there for a moment taking inventory to her wounds. Nothing major, just some small cuts from the rocks. She looked at what she was laying in and found that she was in a cool stream. "I'm okay, just a little cut up. The water seems to help though, I think we will stay here for the night."
She stood up and took a drink from the stream letting the cool water sooth her throat. She shook herself letting the wet sand and blood fall away from her coat. All she needed now was a good meal and a nap.
