A soft hissing sound spread over the plains. Ember was looking out her window. People had stopped coming about a year ago. Now, she was 18. Ember, was a has been, and in exactly 2 days she was going to a dragon camp so Kora could watch over another princess who was going to have princes come after her. It was pretty much princess jail. She would have a small room. No grand tower. She would share a castle 10 times smaller from what she was living in now. Not a HUGE castle.
Ember opened her big brown door and walked down the winding stairs. She passed two slaves going to take her stuff, all except her best dress and favorite shoes. Ember watched the slaves disappear into her room and come out with her little table. Ember went back up stairs and moved her small bag with her dress and pair of shoes she was keeping to her big purple chair. Ember watched the 2 slaves take her bed. And there, was something that she had not seen for 7 years. There covered in dust, was the box. Ember picked it up and noticed the other little box that held paintings of her family. She opened this box and looked at a painting of the City of Ember. Ember felt a small cold tear roll down her cheek.
Ember put on her best dress and favorite shoes and picked up the 2 boxes. She sat down in her big purple chair. Then Ember watched Kora leave. She just flew away. Ember looked out her window for the last time and saw an ugly wrinkly green dragon that must have been very old. It slowly flew up to Ember.
A few slaves fastened the chair and 2 boxes to the dragon. Ember stepped onto the windowsill and sat on the dragon. Then the dragon began its long flight to Embers' new home.
If you have ever been in a place where Ember is now where you had to leave your home and can only bring a few items without seeing your family in years you know how Ember felt. How lost and sad everything just falling apart when you have already suffered so much. But right now Ember wasn't thinking of Kora, or her new home, or even her family she had left behind so many years ago. She was thinking of the City of Ember. And what the small little box did that changed her life. For right now Ember could only feel sorry for her self. Now, she hated Kora for leaving, her parents for giving her up, and everyone who didn't care.For now, Ember, was really alone.
