The Four Clans

Quitting

Ivy had cried by her mothers side all night, she was deep in thought. Ivy walked away to grab some flowers, she found some beautiful white ones, her mothers favorite. Ivy covered her mother in dirt so no one would see her, then she put the flowers on top of her. Ivy grabbed a medium sized rock and carved her mothers name on it and carved the day she was born and the day she died. Ivy cried some more and then she started to walk home. She was mad and upset at the fire clan, Ivy wanted to get the other piece of the map but she figured it would be pointless to even try. She walked for five days until she got home. Ivy didn't know what to do so she buried the map in the ground towards the back of her cave and she slept the rest of the day.

15 years have passed and Ivy was now an adult, she had lived alone for a very long time. Ivy woke up and she saw the corner of the map was sticking out, but she put more dirt on top of it. Ivy wanted no memory of the fire clan or any other clan at that. So Ivy went out and didn't come back till the sun was setting. When she came back she saw that the map was lying on the ground it wasn't buried like it was supposed to be. Ivy walked over to the map and touched it but when she did a memory came to her. It was of her mom and her flying together and she saw herself sleeping next to her mom and how she smilies when she sleeps. A tear ran down Ivy's face and just then an idea struck in her head. She had to find the fifth clan, for her mother and maybe her mother would be proud of her. "And when I find this fifth clan my mom will smile down at me from heaven and say that she is proud of me." Ivy said. "In the morning I will leave." And with that Ivy slept and dreamed about her and her mother flying through the clouds in peace together.
