**continued from "Walks on the Beach"** *Kell continued to run even as the sun began to set. Her ears were pulled back flat against her head, hurting from the cold winds. Her tiny paws scampered in the sand that was beginning to turn to soil, and her eyes showed only a dull expression. Her energy was running low and she was beginning to shake not only from the cold but also exhaustion. Track by track, more rocks and soil appeared until all trace of the sand was gone, and the impact of the hard ground further numbed her little paws. Upon rising to the top of a hill, she spies a rock formation with a cavern and limps towards it, with Rag helping her along.*

*rag watched her closely, she wasn't well, and this cold wasn't helping her. He stayed close and did his best to keep her warm. But he was having other feelings though... Something about her filled his heart with strong feelings. He couldn't worry about them right now and hurried her to the cavern

*as she stumbled in, her eyes closed and she fell over. Her mind went blank and her conciousness receded. She could not move her paws or her tail, much less any other part of her body. She was still very close to the entrance of the cave*

*rag dragged her further in and carefully placed her behind a rock formation to protect from any wind coming into the cave. She had just eaten so she was just exhausted and freezing so he cuddled up next to her and layed on her to keep her warm

*Kell had fever dreams as she slept. She was beginning to come down with some sort of illness. Her body trembled in a cold sweat and she seemed not to notice Rag there with her. She muttered strange things as she flirted with a coma off and on*

*rag layed there watching her, she needed help... He went out and found some snow and picked it up he brought it in his mouth he then placed it on her forehead to help with her fever. Now he just waited for her to get better*

*outside, the wind picked up to the point that any dry soil was being blown away with the leaves. The temperature dropped even more. Kell's fever began subsiding towards the middle of the night but she still slept. The next morning, the rain turned to snow.*

*rag opened his eyes slightly, seeing the white flakes falling outside. He looked over at the fox who slept quietly. She was better, not by much but enough to consider her ok. He sighed in relief and waited for her to awaken*

*Kell slowly opened her eyes, the only sound was that of the falling snow outside hitting the ground. It was a quiet and calming sound. After lying there for a second, she eased onto her feet and wobbled towards the entrance of the cave. She did not seem to notice her companion.*

*rag then leaves the cave*

*she eats the squirrel slowly, savoring it. She then lays down to rest.* Why are you here? I mean, don't you have a place you belong? Surely you can't have wanted to be here...
