Chapter One: Muddy Hell!
Despite the victory at the space colony ARK more than six hours ago, the entire planet lay quiet as they mourned the death of a great hero who gave his life. A second chance was all she asked for, a second chance to live and be happy. If only he had a second chance.
Rain began to pour. Lightning streaks across the black sky as two cloaked figures move towards a crater in the middle of the forest. They moved quickly for fear that what they have been searching for would be destroyed by the weather. As they eased their way down the sides of the crater on lost his grip and slid down the muddy wall let out a feminine cry making it obvious the he was a she. When she finally landed she found herself next to a green emerald and furthermore on top of a black hedgehog. She got to her feet and stood to the side of him as her friend came to a stop on the other side of the black hedgehog.
She bent down and removed the emerald from the hedgehog's grip holding it up to her face. "Got it," she said looking up at the other.
"Ok we got what we come for so let's go," he said getting ready to climb the crater.
"Wait we just can't leave him here," she said tossing him the emerald. "He'll die out here."
He placed the emerald in his pocket and looked back at the hedgehog. "Nina he's dead."
"But…"
"Do you really think that someone could survive a fall like that," he argued looking at her. She knelt beside the hedgehog placing a hand on his chest running a finger over the tuft of white fur.
"He's alive!" she said in amazement. She felt his chest rise and fall and a heart beating. "Please. We can't leave him here to die."
"Fine we'll take him with us," he said clinching his teeth. She smiled and helped him carry the hedgehog out of the crater and out into the woods.
