A pale grey she-cat was sitting on the fence outside of her Twoleg home.

Her pale was sleek and well-groomed, and her belly was slightly plump, but not too plump. Her long tail lashed, and her blue eyes were bright with an unknown emotion. She got to her feet, but as she was about to jump from the fence, a ginger tom leaped up beside her, struggling slightly.

"Hi, Pierre," chirped the pale grey she-cat.

Pierre's blue eyes flashed with fear as he nearly fell from the fence, but he managed to get back up again. "Hi Wingbringer!" he gasped, his hind feet clawing desperately at the wood. It took a few moments for him to find his strength and pull himself up.

"Where are you going?" panted the ginger tom.

Windbringer nodded her head towards the forest. "There," she breathed. "I want to go to the forest."

Pierre tilted his head. "But... you have your own Twolegs! They feed you and pet you and brush you, and let you sleep by the nice, warm fire..." He drew his shoulders up slightly and sighed, melting a little. "That sounds nice."

Windbringer rasped her tongue over her lips, her tail lashing and her blue eyes rolling. "Whatever, Pierre." She stared across the forest, her lips forming into a bright smile. "Imagine the freedom! Imagine the wind in your fur! Imagine-"

She was sharply cut off by a rattle and multiple calls of a Twoleg. "That's my Twoleg," Pierre said, jerking his head and staring off into another direction.
"Imagine the taste of mouse..." Windbringer swiped her tongue over her lips again, smiling. Pierre made a face.

"Ew..."

"Pierre, I won't be here when you come back."

"Why?"

Windbringer's heart beated hard in her chest as she stared into Pierre's wide, innocent blue eyes. It hurt her heart to do this, but she had to. She knew that she belonged in the forest.

"I'm going to the forest."

Pierre's eyes widened so that the whites of his eyes were shown. "You can't!" he cried. "What about your Twolegs? What about the... the warm fire?" Pierre was trying desperately to come up with excuses for her to stay. "What about me?"

Windbringer's heart ached in her chest as Pierre's lower lip trembled and his blue eyes were filled with sorrow and fear.

She turned her head away. She couldn't bear the thought of staring into his sad eyes once more. "I'm... I'm sorry, Pierre. But this is something I need to do." She smiled weakly at her friend. "But I'll visit..."

But the ginger tom had already jumped off the fence. "There's no need for you to apologize!" he cried over his shoulder. “Your old Twolegs will find a new cat, and I’ll play with her!”

Windbringer felt a wave of anger and jealousy at the thought of being replaced, but her lips were already moving. “Fine!” she shouted. “I wouldn’t want to be friends with you, anyway, you lazy, fat slob!”

Head whipping around, she jumped off the fence and raced away into the forest.

She ran for a long time. For so long, her paws ached. But she had to keep going. She had to get away from Pierre and the Twolegs. She paused near a tree, gulping in as much air as she could. Ears pricked, she looked around. The trees were tall and blocked out the sunlight, and a chilly wind sliced through her fur. Windbringer shuddered, fluffing out her pale fur and staring around, eyes wide. She didn’t even know where she was!
The she-cat was, though, a little happy. She was free! But she also felt a little sad. She had fought with her best friend and then left him alone, and then called him rude names. And, to top it all, she was lost.

Windbringer wandered around, letting out yowls of fear. “Help me!” she wailed. “Help!”
But no cat came. Her heart thudded so hard against her chest she thought it would explode.

I can’t take it anymore.

Losing all hope, Windbringer let out one more shriek before collapsing to the ground, letting out sobs.
