Sam Wilson I am walking on the mountain holding my bow waiting for any animals to appear. Just then, I hear I noise coming from the snow covered rock and slowly walked to it to see what it was. A man appeared and pushed me while another man grabbed my Bow and bag then threw me down the hill. “Ugh, Come on my wallet is in there,” I say as they run off into the distance. I try to stand up but the pain is unbearable so I fall back down. “Well this is great, I have also sustained an injury on my left leg.” I crawl over to the tree that is to the right of me and fall asleep on the spot. I woke up and see a grey animal in the distance. I can’t quite make it out until I realize that it was a Wolf. Could be worse I think to myself as I grab the rock
