Second challenge and this story will work in three parts. The beggining (this chapter), the journey (next chapter) and the ending (Last chapter which will include Epiloge)
Chestnut coloured trees filled Embers dreams, the smell of the forest hit her every time and she would break down crying because of the memories that haunted her every night.
She had only been an apprentice at the time, when Two-legs had come to camp and took her home and named her Ember after her Firery red pelt.
The two-legs has two other cats, a black tabby she-cat named Minx and grey calico Tom name Max, but Ember called him Maxy because when he was younger he would every ones names with a y and a black and brown chihuahua names Chester who spoke with a bit of a posh accent, anyway back to the story.
"Ember time to wake up." Said Maxy padding Ember with his left paw.
"Can't I sleep for a few more minutes?" Said Ember opening her Crystal blue eyes and looking up at Maxy.
"No." Said Maxy pushing Ember to his paws.
"Madame Ember, Master Maximus, it is time for breakfast." Said Chester walking into the room.
"We're coming," Said Ember walking with Maxy to the kitchen where the usually tin of tuna in a food bowl was waiting for them. "Yay Fish, again." Ember dropped her gaze and then went to eating the tuna.
"You're lucky, if I was you I would be grateful that I have a roof over my head." Said the familiar voice of Minx.
"What's that got to do with me not wanting tuna?" Asked Ember looking up.
"Because it usually leads to you ranting on about how great Clan life is." Said Minx smirking and then went to eating her Breakfast.
"No it wouldn't." Said Ember finishing her food and walking out the cat flap.
:::::::
Outside was warm and pleasant, white frost tinted the grass from last night and ivy grew along the fence line, birds called in the apple trees almost mocking Ember who wasn't supposed to hunt them and they always tempted her.
"I just want to go home." Said Ember wanting to climb the fence and just run as fast as she could home, but where was home?
"Hey Ember." Said Maxy watching Ember jumped up in surprise as the Grey calico started laughing.
"Not funny, so out here to give me the talk?" Asked Ember, the talk was what Minx constantly told her about how life in the wild was too dangerous for her and that Sophie would need someone if Minx had died and continued to rant about it until Ember zoned out entirely.
"No, I'm here to help you escape." Said Maxy smiling and showing a hole in the fence big enough for Ember to fit through.
"Oh. Oh thank you." Said Ember jumping on top of Maxy.
"It's alright, now can you get off of me?" Asked Maxy as Ember got off him and smiled.
"Sorry, so what are we waiting for?" Asked Ember turning and getting ready to bolt through the hole.
"I don't know?" Asked Maxy following Ember through the fence and into the wild.
Enjoy
