Day Sixty-Nine, Dark

Eve opened her eyes slowly to a crackling sound and looked over at a dying fire. A slight weight held her down and she looked at the sleeping figure of the baby fox on her lap. She sat up slowly and inspected the little thing; it's back had multiple healed scars from where the vultures talons pierced into the skin, blood dried on the ends of it's fur and on the blanket surrounding it's body. She looked at her arm, seeing the same healed scars and felt dizzy. Laying back down, she looked at her Stats Page.

She decided to divide them up evenly, putting three in dexterity, strength, intelligence and charisma and two in luck.

She saw a square speech bubble blinking in the corner of her vision and focused on it.

Eve completely forgot this quest. Apparently it was still open to be accepted or declined. After a minute, she decided to accept the quest. 'Whats the worst that could happen?'

She set her hand gently on the fox's head and a new prompt appeared.

She could only see the status page of items she could own so why was she seeing the Stats Page of this fox? It slowly opened it's eyes and looked at her; the big, green spheres gazed deep into hers and she felt a pang in her heart. She knew this creature was happy she was okay, it was grateful she helped it and it... she... It was a female fox and she wanted to stay with Eve forever. Eve just knew this like she was told. She felt a smile creep across her face and she slowly slid her hand down the little vixen's head, stopping before the scars.

"Hi, little one," Eve spoke softly and a prompt appeared.

What will you name your Fox?

She smiled and spoke a name she remembered from her childhood, the name of a female fox from a movie she and her brother used to watch every night before the tape warped.

"Vixey."

The fox, Vixey, laid her head back down, nuzzling between Eve's breasts and fell back asleep. Eve slowly followed suit and slept.
