Sophie’s Return Part 1

"This…." I, of course, wanted to rush over and kill that count but I had to wait. Things might be starting to change, and for now, I need to try to keep myself restrained. I looked at the sleeping fox girl on my bed whose cheeks were covered in soot and tears and felt my own tears welling up. My fluff fluff…. I couldn't save her parents even in this life….  "Atollie, please get me some of my clothes and a bucket and towel I will help clean her up." 

"Alright." Atollie quickly did as I asked and got me what I needed. 

I sat next to the sleeping fox girl and gently dabbed her cheeks with a warm wet towel. This motion seemed to disturb her as she slowly opened her eyes and looked at me. "Am I dead?"

"Far from it…." I whispered as I continued to wash Sophie's face.
