Chapter 1 Rain Of Fear And Sadness

It was a desolate night, no one dared step out of the small wooden houses that made up the kingdom. A hurricane was coming overhead the Southern Kingdom. The atmosphere grew very dreary and dark, winds picking up rapidly..

But.. Crying.. Utter sad crying filled the whistling winds with grief and fear. It was the crying of a child...

A hooded hedgehog was running through the dense wind as trash swept the streets. Rain started to pour down and made it very difficult to see.

In her arms was a basket. And a shivering body laid in the straw woven basket, a small crying pink hedgehog..

The hedgehog kept trying to cover the poor wet infant, tears streaming down her face.

"It's ok baby.. Momma's here." The hooded pink mother said with tears flooding her already wet face.

"It'll be ok, I promise." She said covering the basket with her long cloak.

Soon after, lots of loud footsteps and horses hooves were heard running behind the pair. "YOU THERE!!! HALT NOW!!!" One of the blurry figures said.

The mother turned her head to get a glimpse of them as she continued to trudge quickly through the dense storm.

"THE KING OF THE NORTHERN KINGDOM CONDEMNS THY TO KEEP RUNNING!!" The figure said muffled by the pounding wind and rain.

She darted into an ally between two wooden houses as the mob of guards were getting closer.

She kept running trying to lose them in the dense storm. The hedgehog found her destination she was looking for. The Southern Castle.

She entered through a hole in the wall and ran to the steps.

She bent down and sat on both knee's staring down at the frightened crying child.

"I love you so much baby... I'll miss you.." She whimpered out as she kissed the child on the forehead. Her tears became more and more dense as she stood back up.

She laid the basket in front of the huge dark wooden doors to the castle.

She banged hard on the doors loudly. As she started to run back out the hole, the guards surrounded her.

She collapsed on her knee's crying harshly. They grabbed her arms and threw her in an iron rusty cage that was hooked up to horses.

The cage had straw on the floor with a roof over her head. She grasped the bars with her head bowed down. Her ears flattened in sadness.

"Stay strong my little one." She whispered in the direction of the castle. She started weeping in the cage for she knew she would never see her beloved pink child ever again.

The hedgehog then collapsed to the bottom of the cage as the horses began to canter there way to the Northern Kingdom.

She knew what future laid ahead of her.. Certain death from her treason she made..
