I was almost to the cabin. The snow started falling harder and it made it harder to walk... or limp if you're in my condition. My leg was bleeding and I could feel the blood freezing to my leg as I limped towards the cabin. I can feel the snow melt against my face ever so slowly. I feel weak and helpless. Why am I the only one left. I started to cry and I could feel the tears freeze on my face. I felt cold all I wanna do is lie down. I looked around and I found a cave that I could probably stay in for the night, so I'm actually able to see the cabin when it's morning.
I went into the cave and gathered some sticks into a pile and I used the flame from the lantern to start a fire. I looked at my phone to see if I had a signal, but there was nothing. I started to cry again. The frozen blood on my leg started to melt, and I decided to lie down and before I knew it, I was asleep.

It was morning and I was more than halfway to the cabin. I just needed to get up. I slept like a corpse, that is to say that I was cold and asleep.
I got up and I started to panic. In front of me was a bear and it was blocking by the exit to the cave. The bear must've thought that I was dead last night when I was asleep. I started to move slowly around the bear and every time I took a step on my left foot I tried not to scream in pain. I eventually made my way around the bear and then I took a breath of relief. And that's when the bear woke up.I tried to run but it wasn't easy. The bear was getting up to check it's surroundings and that's when it spotted my trail of blood.
"Shit!"
I started to move faster. My leg kept gushing blood as I moved.
"Fuck! This hurts so fucking bad!"
I kept going, the cabin was in sight. The bear started to run after me. I am totally fucked. I started to leap, hoping that it would make me move faster, it hurt like hell, but it worked. I was almost there. I was at the door and it was unlocked. The bear was running up the steps, so I slammed the door shut and locked it.I stared out the window to look at the bear. It clawed at the door for the next two hours and it eventually left. The cabin was empty except for a few pieces of furniture and a few logs in the fireplace. I felt like someone might eventually find me, all I have to do now is wait and survive.
