She slowly tumbled through the snow until she came to a cave. When she woke up the next morning the snowstorm had ended. She walked out of the cave, the reflection of the sunlight on the snow temporarily blinding her. Far away FullMoon saw a rabbit hopping along. She quickly ran after it. Trying to stay on top of the deep snow. The rabbit noticed her and would almost have outran FullMoon if the snow hadn't fallen to a more shallow level. FullMoon was running at full speed now. Chasing the rabbit. Then she came to a stop when a giant crack appeared under her. FullMoon only got a second to think before the ice shattered and she fell into the water. Yet she didn't drown. That was when FullMoon realized she could breathe underwater. This gave her a false sense of security so that she didn't notice the orca charging towards her. It's large teeth scraped her face almost taking out her one good eye. She temporarily distracted it by scraping its face, giving her enough time to make dart to the surface. She climbed out of the hole she had made previously. Then rushed towards solid land. The orca burst out behind her its bite barely missed her. A moment later she finally reached dry land. <4 years later> FullMoon had spent years preparing for this moment. She had found the orca. The one she had barely escaped all those years ago. For she was a kit no more. She felt the need to defeat the beast not for revenge, but to prove to herself that she could do it. That she could defeat the beast after all these years. FullMoon was positioned at the opening of an underwater ice cave. The Orca was just coming into few. Swimming right under her hiding place. FullMoon Pounced on the unsuspecting orca. It tried to spin and make her fall off, but her claws had a firm grip. FullMoon slashed at its eyes. The beast flipped its head around and almost bit her tail off. FullMoon was just out of its reach. The battle continued for a long period of time. Every gruesome moment thrillingly intense yet also unnerving at the same time. Amazingly (to anyone who hadn't met FullMoon) she was winning. Right then FullMoon was about to strike the final blow then she saw the orcas eyes. She immediately felt everything the beast was feeling panic, pain, and loneliness. It was then she realized this orca didn't have a pod. It was all alone... Like FullMoon. She couldn't stand to look into the creatures eyes for one more second. FullMoon Swam back to the surface. FullMoon ran to her cave and took a deep breath. It was then that FullMoon finally realized how lonely she was. FullMoon was tired of being alone, so she made a decision. She would leave, and search for others. She looked out at the seemingly endless tundra. She travel no matter the distance until she found others. ( Part 2: )
