Zee...
After finding a safe place to sleep between two burnt trees.Thay put their things down before sitting down.
"Sooooooooo what?"Amber asked.
"What?"Zee asked confused.
"I don't know."Amber said.
"You don't know what?"Zee said.
"What!"Amber said.
"What the hell..."Zee muttered.
Amber just blinked.
"I'm done I'm going to sleep..."Amber said.
"Ok???"Zee replied.
Amber laid down,Zee just stared up at the sky.The stars Spread out instead of clumping up like they do at home.Zee's hand dug into the ash ground.He knew that that would need to brush their stuff a lot to get it off,he drew in the ash.The drawing was their home town.
As he drew,his mind went to his childhood house,the wind would push doors slowly shut or open.He remembered his mother would go out for the whole day,and his father would go on trips for months.The smell of freshly baked banana bread.Somedays he would lay in bed others he would stay outside.He had a dog called Opal.The dog was a boxer dog and was a nice chocolate brown.Opal would accompany Zee when he would walk for hours stopping here and there by the river for her to drink,then he would keep walking picking fruit that he new was safe to eat and some stones that he thought where pretty.he would say hello to people as he walked,he went across the bridge that went over the rushing river before ending at him sitting with his friend,Polar.Opal would run around as him and Polar played.Polar had beautiful white hair that reminded Zee of the snow one the mountains.Polar had been Nicknamed after the polar nights that would happen every two years at their town,which the travelers said wasn't too normal and that it normally happened half a year but buzz off.
The leaves gently fell onto the water before quickly getting swept away.A harpy eagle would fly over and Zee and Polar would watch it land on a nearby branch,but get scared by Opal barking at it.
Zee came back to reality having a drawing in the ash had come out okish tho Zee wished he had drawn it on paper so he could do more detail.
He looked over at Ember who was sleeping peacefully,he brushed the drawing away before laying down on the uncomfortable ground and drifting asleep...

In Zee's dreams it was cold.Was he in the mountains?
