She heard a whimper, and turned around to find a dog. Not any dog, this dog looked magestic, beautiful, even a god maybe. She stared at it with her bright green eyes. "Hey buddy, oh-" Ash looked down at the dogs feet. He was standing in a small puddle of blood. "Oh poor thing" she said under her breath. The dog whimpered again. Ashlyn decided to take the dog with her, she didn't really have to, because he followed her anyway. Ashlyn Smith, who is 18, always loved discovering new trails in the woods. She went to the woods as much as she could. And never told anyone, she liked to keep it her little secret. Ash felt a small drop of rain on her forearm. It was getting late and she decided to start heading back. She walked on and on, feeling like forever, Ashlyn pulled out her phone. No signal, of course, what was she thinking. By now it was pitch black and Ashlyn had forgotten about the injured pup following her. A second later she heard a loud shreek. "HOLY CR- oh. . . It's just you." The dog whimpered. Ash had to come up with a name other then pup or doggy. She named him Shadow. She'd spent so much time trying to find her way out of the woods, that Ashlyn found herself lost. In the middle of no where, dark, cold, and raining.
