Zebra was taking her walk with her family when she froze in mid step the sound like a lions roar they were back. She froze in mid step The sound the dog’s was bark followed by a growl the two sounds rang in her ears she looked around she noticed her family was gone. She called out which attracted the dogs she ran into a small bush she saw the dogs paws from the bush the dog was coming…she felt the dog’s WET…COLD SLIMY nose touch her and felt the dogs warm but cold at the same time strangely but no time to think about that the dog was about to eat her. the dog opened its big wet slobbery mouth with the biggest fangs she had ever seen for a second she couldn't breathe when the dog howled and ran away with its friends she came out and went to her old den and cried herself to sleep when she awoke it was the middle of the night she went outside and looked at the full moon tears ran down her face suddenly she elt anger. “WHY DID THEY LEAVE ME BEHIND?!?” she thought as she ran to the spot where she had lost her family then she heard something a dog? No she thought and slowed down. A MOUSE! It had been in a bush she tiptoed up to the mouse and pounded and caught it she had not eaten for what seemed like many months but was only A day or two she gulped down the mouse in one gulp and she needed to keep looking she saw a mother cat with two small kittens one white with a black mark that looked like a heart with blue eyes and the other orange with a black big spot on her back but when she approached the cat took one look at her and backed away slowly every hair raised high “who are you?!?” the cat hissed “why are YOU here” “this is MY territory you know” “oh sorry” zebra mewed faintly the cat’s hairs slowly became flat as if the cat now trusted her. “Where are your parents little one?” asked the cat suddenly the memory of losing her family flashed in her mind.”I-F I lost them..”she cried “oh no! How?” said the cat “the dogs she answered and felt a tear run down her cheek “MAMAA!” creid the kitten with a black spot “heart got stung by a bee” the small kitten pointed at a even smaller crying kitten. “Oh dear” said the cat as she picked up the crying kitten “follow me!” the cat said said “umm ok..” zebra said “im sandy by the way” said the cat “im zebra” said zebra sandy leaped down into a hole which appeared to be tier home zebra waited while sandy placed the still crying kitten onto the mossy bed and tried to comfort her zebra looked around the small den then she felt sandy grab her by the scruff and place her down by the otter kittens sandy went out side of the den and while she was gone zebra driffeted of to sleep “zebra?” said a voice “mama?’ Said zebra “MAMA!” then she heard sandy’s calm and soothing voice “zebra?” zebra opened her eyes her mom wasn't there. “Good morning sleepy head!” said sandy zebra started to cry “aww it’s ok” said sandy “what happened” sandy asked “ i saw my mom…” sniffed zebra“want a mouse a rabbit or a fish for breakfast?” “umm she remembered her family always ate mice “but remembering anything her family did was to painful “fish” said zebra her family hated fish she closed her eyes and took the smallest bite you might even call it a nibble she swallowed “yummy!” she said the otter kittens looked at her in disgust “eww” they said in unison “HEY!” said sandy “dont yuck her yum” zebra was thinking about her family why they left her and how they were doing. “HEY ZEBRA WANNA PLAY!” heart screamed in her ear zebra jumped up in surprise “AHHH!” she scowled fur up in the air “DON'T DO THAT!” “so-sorry “ stuttered the small but loud kitten “fine… i'll play” She said a she rolled her eyes “what are you playing” the kitten blinked blankly “ummm know any games?” “NO!” but she knew she did. “I KNOW YOU WERE ANGRY AND SAD BUT DON'T TAKE IT OUT ON THE KITTENS!” sandy hissed “im sorry” said black “sorry is not good enough” “come on kittens” “were leaving” “and were not coming back” black sat there wide eyed and surprised and he started to cry he went into a bush and was as much as a shadow. Where did he go?!? Then a black blur grabbed heart “NO” screamed zebra and rushed to grab her but the sadowy cat hit her she scratched and hissed until the cat fell to the ground “sandy! Sandy! “ zebra yelled sandy and little t rushed over sandy dragged the black shadow into the sun “black!?!” sandy gasped black opened his eyes “ow.” he said “your always saying that you are the best healer in the world then you probably can treat ths” she growled “goodbye forever” she said calmly but gruffly at the same time “im so sorry he named you trouble” shighd sandy as they walked home “you can be..” “spot!!!” said little t “ok” sandy said “nice name spot” said zebra “spot” said spot “i like it.” she sighed happily more in notes and credits
Zebra was now very tried she lay on the warm “nest” made out of feathers and cotton the stuff that was left in her old cave as she drifted of to sleep she smelled something something, bad when she opened her eyes she had wings and was flying with… HER PARENTS?!?! “Mom?” “dad” her parents nodded she felt tears in her eyes but before she could hug her mom and dad the wind picked up and dark clouds wirled in the air angry stom clouds wirled around her parents her parents struggled to get out she looked at them wide eyed and the dark clouds surrounded her she called out, no sound came out. She was alone agen she tried to fly but when she looked and her wings they were gone she started to fall she saw her pernets flying above her their eyes glowing red. She fell to the ground hard. “AHHHHG!” she thought she had felt pain but no, she couldnt she closed her eyes and when she opened them she was in Sandy’s home “are you ok?” sandy asked “Y-yeah” “just a nightmare” Zebra replied “so want to hunt with me,spot and heart?” sandy asked “ok..” Zebra replied sadly “Come’on” sandy said “we’ll be hunting fish”
