Animal Heaven - 1, 2 and 3

Animal Heaven Part 3 - 1

Prologue

"Queen Cupcake, your majesty, it will give me great honour for you to present the grand opening of my new Art Museum! It will be held tonight, sorry I couldn't tell you at an earlier date. I understand if you can not attend, your majesty." Said Minny the griffin as she bent her head towards the ground in a polite manner.

"Of course I will be delighted to present your grand opening to the whole of Animal Heaven!" Replied Cupcake excitedly.

Animal Heaven- Book 3

I have just been told that I will be attending the grand opening of the new Art Museum! I love art so I am looking forward to it, although I don't have a good feeling about it right now. I know and trust Minny, she wouldn't do anything against me.

"What should we do about your clothes!" Exclaimed Jerome (my personal designer and great friend) (also a Burmese kitty).

"I don't know, maybe something subtle. Or something that matches the artwork- it's abstract." I suggested.

Jerome did consider my option, but he loved going big.

"Pardon me your majesty, but I think you will look better in an enormous feathered dress with a frilled neck and glass slippers!" Said Jerome excitedly while trying to find a pen and paper so he could sketch down his ideas. He was an amazing artist.

"Ok, but make sure the dress has an abstract pattern." I said plainly looking at the ground, not really agreeing with Jerome but he knows fashion better than me.

I went into my room and flopped onto my bed (EVERYBODY DO THE FLOP!!! Sorry I just had to do that, now back to the story) feeling tired because the night before Farkle kept crying and Terror was away in Animal Hell for the weekend. Farkle will probably need to come with me. It is probably too late for babysitters. But I'll ask anyway.

So, today I went to the art museum and the art was really good but I didn't get most of the meanings though... Anyway, it was a good night in general and Terror got back today. He says that it is all good down there, but I could tell that there was something he wasn't telling me. It keeps bugging me.

"Queen Cupcake may I come in. It's Jerome." Asked Jerome standing at the door of my room.

"Sure, I'm just writing in my diary!" I yelled from my bed.

Jerome opened the door and came in.

"I could tell that something was on your mind when we were at the art museum. Are you ok?" Questioned Jerome with a confused look on his fuzzy face.

"Well there was something on my mind but it was just silly, it's nothing worth worrying about." I replied quickly, probably too quickly.

"Well if you are ok. I will just be in the kitchen trying tonight's yum yums!" Jerome said excitedly because tonight was his favourite meal: Fried sardines!

With a flick of his fluffy tail he was out of the room in a hurry to the kitchen. I don't know what I saw in the art museum but something in one of the artworks reminds me of the treasure of Aphrodite. I thought it was a myth and I have never seen a picture of it before but something there reminded me of the stories my mum used to tell me about it.

A single tear fell onto the lined paper of my diary. I miss my Mum a lot. She went to Animal Hell when she died because she killed a bad animal that she thought was going to hurt me. It turns out that he wasn't but it was too late. When she died she went to Hell and I became the ruler of Animal Heaven when she left me, I was only little back then.

I still remember when Miss Sugar Pie flew down gracefully from "the clouds" as I thought. She told me that everything was going to be fine and that she was going to take care of me now. She scooped me up into her talons (even though they were talons, they were the most softest things that I have ever touched). She glided back up into the clouds with me in her talons. When we reached the cloud line I looked down and didn't feel unsafe, even though we were hundreds of meters above the ground and I am really afraid of heights. I hugged Miss Sugar Pie's leg and she looked down at me and smiled. When we were even higher there was a really bright flash of light and then there was a beautiful village built on clouds with all sorts of animals prancing around talking to each other and laughing. It was wonderful.
