One_More_Word
Alyssa Mark is abandoned as a teenager by her parents. She lived a hard life at home with 6 siblings and abusive parents that had strong hatred for her. Being the only adopted one, she was never noticed and had never seen the outside world before. When her dad takes her miles and miles away from where they live, she is left alone in the valleys of California, with no food or water. She has to find these resources on her own, and she is most of the time... unlucky. As she gets older, she finds herself struggling more and more to stay alive. There are no signs of any cities, towns, houses, or anything for more than a 100 miles. One night, she is confronted by a stray dog that has also seemed to be abandoned. He has a broken bone in his right front leg and has many marks under his hair on his skin that say he had also been beaten. Alyssa knows exactly what the dog has been through and she is determined to help. At first, they are unsure of each other, but then they learn to build a strong friendship with each other. This gives them a better chance of survival, and now she has someone to comfort her in the forest, and vacant grasslands. As they form a closer relationship, they wonder if they will be able to survive any longer. The weather is getting colder now that winter is coming and the snow is starting to hit them. Is it too late for Alyssa and the stray?
