Snuggles woke up on the ground. They tried to push themselves up but they felt unbalanced and fell back down. They tried to look at their left hand but it was gone. Their left arm was entirely gone. They looked for their right hand and it was still there, just it had many burns.
They pushed themselves up and looked around. They were in the middle of what looked like a destroyed village. Some of the original buildings were in tact but all buildings had at least a bit of damage.

Snuggles turned around. There stood a thinner person with black hair and darker skin. They wore her hair in a braid. They had a light blue tank top on with white shorts. Around her elbows and knees, they wore protective gear. They had a quiver attached to her back and a bow in her hand.
The person smiled down at Snuggles. "Hello Snuggles. I see your path hasn't been treating you well. Let's go get some-"

"April 10th. Why you ask?" The person responded.
