YOU ARE MY FAVORITE ''WHAT IF''
YOU ARE MY BEST ''I'LL NEVER KNOW''

She was hearing something, brushing against the sands. Something walking towards her maybe before she felt the presence. The voice speaking to her sounded urgent but she was scared. She didn't know who this was and the sudden nudge made her flinch back. Her eyes that were glued shut with mucus remained firmly shut and she shakily lifted her head up, trying to smell but her nose was plugged as well. If she tried hard enough maybe she could get a whiff but she was too tired to try it. Instead she stayed where she was upon the sands unsure if she was going to be potentially eaten. She didn't want to be eaten. "W-who are you?" She huffed out softly as she pushed a small paw against the sand in an attempt to get up. Maybe to try and scramble away, to make a break for it. But she never even got that far as someone else came forth.

Her head shook back and forth, small fur fluffed up in fear. Not being able to see anything was scary. She didn't understand what was going on or what these animals were. The other had said something funny and she pulled her ears forward as she tiredly panted against the harsh head, black fur trying to defend her. "What's a...temple?" Suddenly hacking overtook her frame and a pained sound left her throat.
