Trapped in a good book
where are we?
Previous ChapterNext Chapter“What in the..." Peach Heart woke up in a large clearing big enough for a whole clan. "It worked! It really worked!" the pinkish mare said to herself aloud in astonishment.
“WAIT. You... you mean you didn't think it would work? What if we DIED? Or something WORSE?!" the pegasus was about to go on but she became distracted by the fact that her friend was now a beautiful cat with white silky fur and black stripes black as night pouring down her back.
“Woah." now the black and white cat was astonished at her friends appearance, it was just as her friend had imagined. A bright red orange with a darker color of multiple stripes lining her pelt, similar to a tiger, but at the top of her head was excess fur the color of her stripes, slightly messy and tangled, yet in a fashionable way. The same with her tail, at the tip was excess fur the color of her stripes. Both cats looked just the way they had wanted.
They both immediately had the idea of coming up with a name for themselves to be called. “I’ll be TANGLE CLAW!!” Lightning Chaser announced proudly. Peach Heart couldn’t help but notice herself in a puddle.
"I’ll be... Silver Claw.” Silver Claw loved her new name, as well as her friend Tangle Claw.
By now it was late at night and the two cats were trying to satisfy their hunger with some berries and grass. They were not yet liking the idea of eating live animals seeing as they were ponies just a few hours ago. After eating what they could find, they had realized that the mansions made from clouds in the sky were no longer there. Where were their homes? Then, with sudden realization, they had seen two trees fairly close, yet keeping their distance, towards the edge of the clearing they were in. Beside each tree, were large boulders, one had been hollowed out by what looked like thousands if not millions of years of erosion. Yet at the same time looked highly unnatural. The other boulder, wasn't really a boulder at all, it was three rock slabs angled at each other to look like a pyramid, but with a hole at the bottom to be led into a tent big enough for about two cats. In one tree were many branches, each at the perfect distance from each other to be able to jump from one to another. At the top was a strangely warm dome created by branches, twigs, and leaves. The same went with the other tree but instead of the many branches, were mushroom like shelves, and they lead to the top as if to be a staircase strong enough to hold a cat. Both realizing that these were their new homes, they were astonished.
“This is amazing!” said Silver Claw, still sounding a bit tired.
“I could definitely get used to this!” Tangle Claw was already exploring her new den, and she had already come to like it. “Hey, uh, what's that?” Tangle Claw stopped what she was doing to look across the clearing to find a very large rock with a cliff hanging off the front and there was a hole carved in it. inside the hole the walls were lined with moss.
“I'm not very sure, but to be honest with you, I'm not in the mood to go check it out. Goodnight.” Silver Claw fell into a deep sleep, and Tangle Claw didn't care much for the rock either, and ended up falling into a light slumber in her new treehouse.
