Maya sat there for maybe twenty minutes before she became quickly bored, and running low on jerky. She stood up, stuffed animal in one arm, bag of jerky in the other, and looked around. "Guillermo?" She asked in a normal voice, "Guillermo?!" she called out, her voice ringing a bit farther. The doctor still hadn't returned, slightly confusing Maya. He had told her to stay, was he ever coming back? Her ears fell back, slightly distressed at the situation. She was alone. Not wanting to wait any longer, she began to walk away from the hidden water source, walking past dead trees, toxic swamps, and deadly animals.<br/><br/>After a few minutes, she came upon an old shack, running up to it hopefully. She pressed her paws to one of the windows, peering through the small crack in the shades. "Guillermo?" But there was nobody there. She scratched at her head, and began to walk again, putting another piece of jerky in her mouth. She walked further, her feet becoming mud-covered. The landscape was changing from the fresher areas she had been to so many times. It was slowly becoming harder to walk, the mud building up into clumps in her fur, sinking deeper with each step.<br/><br/>There, another building. It was larger than the previous shack she came across, and Maya began to trudge through the mud as quickly as possible to it. Running up to one of the windows, she again placed her paw on it, peering inside. She could see people, more people than she had ever seen before. "Guillermo!!" she called in. She hoped one of the people was the doctor, but he wasn't in there either. Still, they were people, they would help her, right? She went to the door. She was used to it sliding open for her, so seeing the old wooden door with a handle confused her. She scratched at it, creating a bit of a racket on the other side. "Hello?!"
