we didn't start the [FIRE IN ABAVEN]

Motif loved her new playmate and best friend. She sneaked into the thicket every chance she got to score piggy back rides and simply play with the giant lion. She was having the time of her life getting to know the woman and treasured every moment with her.


She was hopping through the tall grass, utterly unaware of the dark clouds above her. All she could see was greenery, through it didn't frighten her, getting lost here, as it had the first time. Not since Canny had come to rescue her. She didn't stop until the sudden flash of lightning, where she froze in surprise. She didn't start to panic until she heard her parents cries, warnings, and orders. “Help!!!” her tiny voice howled, she was too small to see the way out of the thicket “Mummy, Daddy, Canny, help!” she began to run in frantic circles, already she could feel the heat of the blaze.
