Chapter Eleven

A small monster without sides drove up from a dirt path through the forest, and two Twolegs hopped out. Flame whimpered, and they both started to run. One of the Twolegs had the collar that Flame had taken off. The other one had a large net. "Split up!" Ordered Willowbreeze. Flame looked back at her. "Go, you idiot!" She barked, turning to face the Twolegs. She nimbly avoided the net, and leapt up, grabbing the collar out of the Twolegs fur-less paws. The Twoleg with the collar gasped in alarm. Willowbreeze quickly sped off into the forest, smashing the collar against a rock as she ran. It crackled with electricity, but soon went silent. She thought about calling Flame, but didn't want to give him away to the Twolegs, so she agilely leapt up an oak tree, and curled up in the hollow in it to sleep. She glanced down one last time at the broken collar, and went to sleep.

Willowbreeze awoke to a scuffling noise. A squirrel was climbing up the tree. Perfect! Willowbreeze thought, getting ready to leap out of the hollow. As soon as the squirrel poked its head into the hollow, Willowbreeze leapt, her powerful muscles aiding her. She grabbed it as she flew by, and landed nimbly below the tree. Quickly devouring her prey, she lay down in the warm sunlight. After a few minutes, she got up and started searching for a sharp rock, which she soon found. A relatively large rock was sticking up out of the ground. She started sawing her collar on it, until it eventually broke off. Next, she howled to try and find Flame. A weak howl answered back, and Willowbreeze raced as fast as she could towards the source of the howl. She stopped, panting. Flame was laying in the clearing, his beautiful fur catching the sunlight. He was breathing slowly. "Flame? Flame!" Willowbreeze was panicking. "Wake up you idiot!" Flame leapt to his feet. "Yes, ma'am!" Willowbreeze growled. "Do you know how much that scared me? I will legitimately murder you!" Willowbreeze leapt towards Flame, kidding around with him. She wouldn't actually hurt him, and he knew that. The scuffled around, play fighting, until Willowbreeze abruptly stopped. "Not here. We have to escape, then we can goof off." She said, shooting a small smile at Flame, who returned it. They went back to walking, and soon reached the wall. "Okay, now let's look for a gate for the Twolegs. They didn't just magically appear." Willowbreeze said confidently. Flame responded puzzledly, "Can they? I wouldn't put it past them…" Willowbreeze snorted quietly in amusement, then covered it up with a fake, frustrated groan. Flame say right past it. He glanced over at her, his eyes laughing. She rolled her eyes.

So... how did you guys like it? Also, HUGE thanks to FreeEcho, because as of now she is the only reviewer and helping to keep me motivated. Okay, I'm going to be starting questions of the chapter, so... yeah.

Question: Do you do anything when you're happy?

Answer: I do this weird thing where I try not to smile, or I'll just grin like a maniac.
