The calf stilled, Adobe opened his eyes and met the gaze of the calf. The animal's face was frozen in horror, it was contorted and soaked in its own blood. Adobe dropped his spear to the ground and clutched his stomach, he vomited on the grass. He laid himself on the ground as he cried hysterically. Adobe screamed and pulled his knees to his chest, his chest ached, and every time he glanced at the calf, it felt like someone was piercing his heart with a hot knife. He buried his face in his knees as Jabari kneeled over him. Spit flew out of Jabaris mouth as he screamed at his brother. "Get up!" Adobe didn't even flinch, he let his sobs rack his body. Adobe felt a hand tighten around his ankle, Jabari hastily began dragging Adobe towards the dead calf. Adobes body was limp, he had no energy to put up a fight.
