Dawn whirred to life and her red eyes looked around, seeing the menacing bear standing tall over her friends she did not have time to do more than simply react. She aimed her laser arm at the head of the bear and fired, blasting a hole clean through its head. The bear dropped to the ground with a thud. Lili and Kev both stood stone still, too terrified to move, both still in shock. Dawn climbed out of the cart and walked over to the bear easily flipping the beast over.

“Relax, the beast is dead,” she said.

Lili let out a huge gasp of air as if she had been holding her breath the whole time. “What is that monster?” she asked in a weak voice.

“That, was a bear and it is a good thing you woke me when you did or you two would have been shredded to death.”

Dawn rummaged through the tools until she found a knife and went to the bear and began skinning it and cutting away the meat. “Why are you taking off the skin like that?” asked Lili.

“Because the hide will make good clothing for you, it will start to get cold on the surface of this planet eventually and you will need warmer clothes if you are to survive up here. Thick animal hides will help to keep you warm, we will just need to clean them up and tan them,” said Dawn as she sliced into the meat. “And if you learn to smoke the meat you can preserve it for a long time and make it last without wasting too much of it. There are a lot of things you will need to learn to do in order to survive in this environment.”

Dawn had finished cutting off the skin and handed it to Kev and showed him how to clean the skin by scraping off all the fat. Kev got to work on the skin doing what Dawn had shown him. Lil sat next to Dawn watching her as she carved up the meat, “what can I do to help?” she asked.

“That depends on how your ankle is feeling.”

“It’s much better actually I can walk on it now without the crutches you made me,” she said.

“Good, then you can gather lots of wood, I will show you how to smoke all of this meat. I am going to teach you how to hunt and protect yourself Lili. You are going to stay here while Kev and I go to the city to get my batteries,” said Dawn.

“But I could help,” said Lili.

“It is too dangerous Lili and the less people the faster we can move. We do not want to take a chance of you re-injuring your ankle. Besides someone has to stay behind and work on smoking all this meat and tanning this hide. This area of the forest will make a good place to live for the time being and we may be able to rescue and bring others here as well,” said Dawn.
