âDebra, run!â Vicky shouted, snarling at Leonel, who had already recovered from his fall.
But Vicky was no match for Leonel.
Soon, she was bitten and slashed ruthlessly by the fierce Leonel.
The bloody wounds on her white fur looked terrifying.
I was beginning to wonder if I was in hell.
There was blood everywhere, and I was too shocked to move a muscle.
âRun, Debra⦠Pleaseâ¦â Vicky yelled with the last of her strength before rolling down the hill at the edge of the forest.
âVicky!â
I rushed over as fast as I could, my heart tightly clenched in my chest.
I felt suffocated with fear and anxiety, wondering if Vicky had survived the fall.
At this moment, I didnât want anything else.
I just wanted Vicky would live.
I would do anything to make her Live.
At the foot of the hill, I found Vicky covered in blood.
âVicky, Iâm here, Iâm right here.
Donât worry,â I said in a shaky voice, struggling to hold her up.
âLetâs go home, Vicky.
Iâll take you back home.
â
At her Last gasp, Vicky said weakly, âJust go, Love⦠Just go.
IâLL only slow you down.
Leave me here.
I shook my head desperately, tears streaming down my face.
âNo, weâre going to get out of here together.
Iâm not Leaving you!â
Vickyâs mouth parted slightly.
She seemed to want to say something, but only a mouthful of blood came out.
âVicky, trust me.
Weâll make it.
Together.

Just then, it started to rain.
Before Leonel could catch up to us, I ran past the border with Vicky and hid in a shabby, abandoned car by the side of the road.
I could see the Light in Vickyâs eyes dimming gradually.
âIâm sorry, Debraâ¦â Her voice was weak, and her face twisted with guilt.
âI failed your mother.
I wasnât able to take good care of you.
â
I shook my head.
I wanted to tell her that she didnât fail and that she had raised me well, but the words got caught in my throat.
It turned out that crippling sadness could silence a person.
Vicky looked at me lovingly.
She stretched out a shaky, bloodstained hand and wiped the tears off my face.
âKid.
palm.
â She took out something from her pocket and pressed it onto my âTake this.
â
I looked down and found that it was my motherâs necklace.
It turned out that Vicky had managed to fix it, just Like she said she would.
