"Diego, I don't think I can go on much longer." Shira said, walking slower in the snow. She was falling behind.
Diego and Shira were trapped in a dangerous snow storm, they were separated from the herd and couldn't see anything around them.
Diego looked at Shira. She was breathing heavily.
"Shira, you okay?" Diego asked.
"They...are...they are coming, Diego." Shira said and she fell in the deep snow.
"What?!" Diego gasped. This is bad! Shira can't give birth during a storm. It's too cold! "Shira, just hold on a little longer. We need to find shelter first!" Diego said. Nudging Shira to get up.
"I can't. The cubs..." Shira whispered, too tired to move. The wind was strong and the snow came down faster.
Diego knew he couldn't do anything, all he could was keep Shira and the-soon-to-be born cubs warm. "Don't worry, Shira. We will all make it. Don't worry about a thing." Diego said. Comforting his mate.
After a while, Shira's pain stopped and three cubs were born.
Shira still couldn't move as she was too tired to stand up and Diego tried so hard to make Shira and the cubs warm. The storm still went on and there was no sign of the herd.
The cubs were weak and milk wasn't enough for them. Finally, the cold got to the cubs and two of them died. Only one was left, a boy. a tan cub with brown tips on his ears.
"Diego...I can't do..." Shira struggled to speak, the cold was getting to her too.
"Don't worry, it will be okay." Diego said. But he knew it wasn't.
"Take the cub and find the herd." Shira said.
"What?! No. There is no way I'm leaving you." Diego replied.
Shira smiled. She knew that she wouldn't last long in the storm. Her eyes are slowly closing.
"Shira, come on. I need you to stay awake." Diego said.
Diego rubbed his head against Shira.
Suddenly, a loud bang echoed through the clouds. Diego looked up in the dark grey clouds. He saw a blue light coming straight for them.
It all happened so fast. All Diego saw was a bright blue flash, and the next thing he saw was a saber cub. Lying in the snow. The cub looked up at the sky, and the snow stopped. The clouds went and the moon appeared. The storm was over.
"And that's how we found this cub." Diego finished. He and the herd stayed in a large cave.
"So, this cub just appeared from the sky?" Sid asked.
"Cubs can't fly! Only I can!" Granny said.
Shira layed down with her son and the other cub.
"I don't know how this cub appeared." Diego said to Manny. "All I know, is that somehow she stopped the storm."
"Diego, you can't be serious. She's only a cub." Manny said.
"I know. She did not only stopped the storm. She saved Shira from dying." Diego said. Looking at his mate.
"So what are you going to do with the cub?" Ellie asked.
"I'm gonna adopt her."
The herd looked at Shira.
"What?" Sid asked.
"No one was there when she appeared. We can't just ditch her." Shira replied. Licking the cub. The cub fur was silver, her eyes were opened. Her left eye was blue and the other was white. With no pupil.
"You got a point." Ellie said. "We can't just throw this cub away."
"So, you guys are keeping her?" Peaches asked.
"Yes. I will name her Soul." Shira said.
