Weeks after Skylar, Eric and Sam arrived back a camp the weather became cold with snow late some nights or strong winds that would blow the camp alover the forst.

One night Skylar lay awake looking up at the stars with both hands behind her back head and one knee up. She was thinking about what there thay move to next when it started to lightly snow.

Already being under a tree Skylar closed her eyes and turned to lie on her side. Shortly she felt something nere her leg. When she lifted up the blanket she found Eric lying there.

Pulling Eric closer to she chest Skylar kept him warm. 'Hey Sam come over here' Skylar said. Slowly opening his eyes and walking over to her Sam lay next to Skylar hugging from behind.

Later that night Sam woke up and he saw Skylar facing him. Smiling Sam gently moved hair out of her face she is beautiful Sam thought the way she helps everyone and protects us. Sam smiled as he held Skylar close felling asleep.

When Skylar woke the next morning she felt a muscular arm around her wast, she looked behind her and saw Sam sleeping. A smile formed on her face a day she got up and took her hunting bow and sword and grabbed a leopard skin jacket/clock on and disappeared into the trees.

Later Sam woke to find Skylar gone and Eric lighting the fire. 'Where's Skylar' Sam asked Eric 'mum is out hunting'. Sam got up and put a shit on 'her Eric why do you call Skylar mum. If you don't mind me asking' Eric looked at the fire hard as sam sat  next to him.

'I call Skylar mum because 8 mouths ago I lost my parents' Eric started 'my father was killed by a iron leopard a day my mother was killed the roaly army'. A moment of silence went by before Sam asked another question 'is that why Skylar wants to get something called the golden leopard hea'.

But before Eric could answer him Skylar walked up to them and gave Eric a wild chicken that he plucked and through on the fire. As Skylar pasted Sam got up a day flowed her to the river 'hey' Sam said Skylar looked up 'hey' she answered 'can you tell me about the golden leopard head' Skylar looked at him.
