Authors note: "This is something I should've done in the prologue but I forgot, so the furries in this story, don't have huge paws, and huge feet, they have human hands, and human feet, they're just covered in fur, with claws, same goes for the feet."

Authors note #2: "This one is for later in this chapter, okay, after Kelly's father killed himself, The Lion Commander Grisham took over the island, and Put anyone who supported King Fox in Jail, he put Kelly, Lily, and Lexi in Jail as well, but they were told that it was for there protection, so the half the island is like a prison, because you have the animals who caved in and accepted Grisham, then the animals who were against were encased in walls, forced to do work for him."

It was two weeks after Commander Grisham attacked, and Kelly hadn't stopped grieving about her mother's death, and her father's suicide she wanted to get revenge…

Kelly: "I'll kill Grisham someday, and we will take back our kingdom down below, and we'll all three rule it together."

Lily: "We'll back you up every step of the way."

Kelly: "Thanks Lily, I really appreciate it."

Lexi: "So what are we gonna do?"

Kelly: "First we're gonna figure out how to get down to the surface without any guards knowing.

Lexi: "Bu…But what about the creatures that roam the surface?"

Lily: "Yeah, didn't Daniel mention that the Lion Clan trained millions of ferocious monsters to guard the service world, from just our two clans?"

Kelly: "Fuck, I forgot about those, I guess we'll have to cross that bridge when we get there."

Lily stepped back in shock: "When we get there? Don't you mean if we get there, past all these guards, traps, and security systems?"

Kelly: "Those are obstacles that we'll have to overcome, but I believe in us."

Lexi: "Umm… girls, there's a guard coming our way."

Kelly looked around: "Quick, behind here." they dashed behind a brick wall, and waited out the guards, when they finally passed they continued walking.

Lily: "Phew, that was close."

Kelly: "Yeah, let's find a way out of here."

Lexi: "How? We don't know where the exit is."

Kelly: "Then we'll have find blueprints, or a map."

Lily: "We might can find something like that in the guards tower."

Lexi: "But, that's too dangerous. What if the guards come back and find us."

Kelly: "I'll go alone, you two be on lookout."

Lily: "What are you talking about, you can't go up there by yourself."

Kelly: "Lily, I'm the oldest, and it's my responsibility to take care of you two, none of us have parents, and I have to protect you two."

Lily: "I understand that, but we're all the same age though, if we all go, and a guard comes up we could easily knock him out, but if your alone up there, then how do you plan on taking him out."

Kelly: "I'll think of something, plus I need a lookout because we're all up there, then how would we know when a guard is coming? He'd surprise us."

Lily: "Fair point, but I can still come."

Kelly: "Ok, let's say you do come, and a guard sees Lexi, and we can't get to here in time before he arrests her, you need to go with her to protect her as well."

Lily: "Fine, I'll stay with Lexi, we'll watch your back."

Kelly: "Alright, I'll be right back, you two hide and keep a sharp eye."

Lily and Lexi: "Ok!"

Kelly crouch walked her way over towards the bottom of the ladder, she looked around, then placed one hand, on the fourth ladder bar, and then her foot on the first, she preceded to climb the ladder, when she reached the top she peered over the ledge, took one last glance around the place, and dashed up, and into the control room, and shut the door behind her, when she turned around she noticed computer monitors, a cup of coffee, some papers, and a rolled up parchment, she unrolled it, and read what it said, here's what she read "Wanted, dead or alive, Jessica Kin, reward 2000 gold bars.", Kelly tucked the Parchment into her hoodie pocket, and picked up a stack of papers, reading everyone, but nothing she read was what she wanted, she went to open a drawer, and it was locked, she tried another, locked as well, then she pulled on the big one in the middle of the desk, and it opened to reveal a large posterboard paper, with the caption "Blueprints for left side of island" she rolled it up, and stuffed it into her hoodie pockets along with the wanted poster, she went for the door, but stopped when she heard footsteps on the ladder, she quickly closed the drawer, and hid in a dark corner, and watched the door, it opened but the animal who stepped in wasn't a guard, it was a female wolf, who looked worried, the wolf preceded to dig through the desk, looking for something. Then she turned towards Kelly's corner, and whispered "Who's there?" Kelly didn't answer, the wolf stepped closer "I can see you, I mean you no harm, just trying to get outta here." Kelly finally answered

Kelly: "You looking for some blueprints?"

The Wolf: "Yeah? Do you know where they are?"

Kelly:"Tell me your name first, your real name."

The Wolf sighed: "The names Jessica kid, and I need to get outta here."

Kelly said: "Well Jessica, so do I, I'm trying to reach the surface."

Jessica: "Really? Why do you wanna leave?"

Kelly said: "Well, I'm royalty, and I need to take back my kingdom, but I can't when I'm stuck in this prison."

Jessica: "Wait. Your royalty and you were in jail."

Kelly: "Well, it's not jail, but it is a protection zone, it was made to keep, me and the other two princesses safe."

Jessica: "Wha, Wait, your a princess, and your trying to escape?"

Kelly: "Yeah, are you going to help me?"

Jessica: "What's in it for me?"

Kelly sighed: "Well, when you help me escape, you'd be with us, which means you escaped as well."

Jessica: "Oh, okay I get it, I help you, and in the process, you help me, alright I'm in."

Kelly: "First we have to get down, from here, I'll go first so my friends know I'm safe, because they were on lookout and you came in here."

Jessica: "Yeah, sorry about that."

Kelly: "Alright I'm going down." she left the guard tower room, and started down the ladder, when she reached the bottom, her friends were jogging over from their hiding spot.

Lily: "Are you okay, we saw a strange figure go inside, and you didn't come out quickly."

Kelly: "Yeah, she was looking for the same thing we were, and she's gonna help us escape."

Lily: "She? You talked to them?"

Kelly: "Look 'she pulled out the poster', she's wanted, we have to the same goal, to escape this island in the sky."

Jessica jogged up: "Oh, you have one of my wanted posters."

Kelly said: "Yeah, but 'she ripped it into', we're wanted to."

Lexi: "We are? How?"

Kelly: "We broke out of our protection room, which pretty much was a prison, why do you think we've been hiding from everyone who passed by."

Lexi: "Oh, makes sense I guess."

Lily: "So, how do we get out of here?"

Kelly pulled out the blueprints she found: "Well, this shows the top left half of the island, the one and judging by that water tower over there, and the one on the paper were in the top right portion of it. If we can get over there we might be able to find blueprints for another section."

Lexi: "Like a treasure hunt kinda deal?"

Kelly: "Yeah, pretty much."

Lily: "That's gonna take forever, isn't there a faster way to do it?"

Kelly: "We could just wander around aimlessly until we find something."

Lily: "Okay, it was just a question."

Jessica: "So we're heading towards that water tower over there?"

Kelly: "Yeah, that sounds like a good first approach, because from there we can learn our surroundings better."

Jessica: "If you three are princesses, then why don't you know the place?"

Kelly: "Well, we're all 16, and before I could become the new queen, my mom was murdered, and my dad killed himself, and I didn't want to learn anything about the position."

Lily patted her shoulder: "You're doing the right thing, our parents would be proud?"

Jessica: "I'm confused, your related?"

Kelly: "No, their parents died 3 years ago, and mine died 2 weeks ago."

Jessica: "Oh shit, sorry if I brought back some bad memories."

Kelly: "No, only good ones." she cried for a few seconds, then wiped her eyes and said "Alright, let's go."

They headed for the water tower, dodging guards along the way, trying to stick close to the wall, after about 30 minutes, they reached the Water Tower, Kelly climbed it, and looked around, getting a feel of the area, she climbed back down

Kelly: "We're here, that right there is a building, that looks big enough to be the main one in this part of the island, then over here is the place where a lot of the guards sleep, we could split up, and check them both."

Lily: "Okay, who's going with who?"

Kelly: "Lily, you and Lexi always make a good team, you two should go together."

Lexi: "Who are you going with?"

Kelly: "I'm going with Jessica."

Lexi: "Okay, but when do you want to go?"

Kelly looked at Lily, who had bags under her eyes: "We're going in the morning."

"What?" Lily protested "We need to go now."

Kelly: "No, you need sleep, you haven't slept since 3:00 in the morning yesterday."

Lily nodded: "Alright."

Jessica: "We can sleep on top of the water tower, no one really goes up there."

Kelly: "Ok, could idea."

The four climbed the water tower, and set up some blankets Kelly had in her backpack, and they all slept, Kelly took first watch…
