Chapter 1 [1608 words]
Ok, so this is just a little bit of my first ACTUAL novels. This is Book One in the series and I wanted to let everyone know that I'll be continuing this story once again. This story updates two chapters twice a week. Maybe I'll do more, but it depends. Please do not copy my work for I spent HOURS working on all of my books. If this book is on another site, please let me know and I'll give you an award. Thank you for keeping this story on Wattpad (and Quotev) only. Enjoy!
Just-About-Born-Cat-Ville was the place that every cat lived before they were born. Most of them had a house. Some of them lived in apartments. When a cat is first born, they move from Just-About-Born-Cat-Ville to Earth. I've experienced the same thing. Unlike other cats, something was quite different about being on Earth, like how when the moon first rises, the sun disappears into the Earth.
When I was there, my life flew away.
In my past, here's what changed my life.
I'm a just-before-born cat. Every cat who's here is a just-before-born cat.
I woke up early one morning to find that everything in my house was gone. The sun was out, the other cats were all awake, something strange had just happened to me.
I got up from my little white bed and crawled out of the house. Everyone around me was congratulating me. I got a little confused and stopped in the middle of the town.
Everyone started huddling around me. I jumped up and turned around. I saw a giant, massive machine that could summon magical tornadoes. The machine summoned one that included fire. Everyone around me started yelling and congratulating me even more.
I tried to move around, but the wind was too strong to let me. It picked me up and set me on fire. It spun me around and my little body disappeared, as the tornado threw my ashes into a portal.
I saw myself spinning around even more. I looked down at my paws. I wasn't dead, I was alive!
"What just happened?"
I whispered. A strange shadow came up to me and nodded.
"You've been born, kid. Good luck out into the world!"
"What did you say?"
"You've been born!"
He walked out of the portal, someway and I kept spinning. eventually, the portal dropped me. I was in the real world. I walked around the place and suddenly saw my mother, who's just been cooking up some tasty-looking fish.
"Morning! You ready for breakfast, my new child?"
I nodded my head and meowed. My mother gave me a tiny piece of fish, that wasn't even the size of its little tail!
"What, this is all I get?"
My mother smacked my forehead.
"You may not talk to me like that!"
"I'm just asking in a calm manner."
"That was not calm! You're acting like a pest! You're acting like a filthy piece of blood! You're acting like a spoiled child who doesn't know anything about good attitudes! Knock it off, young one!"
My mom hissed back at me once more.
"You better be a good cat or else I have a bad surprise for you! Behave yourself!"
"What do you mean?"
I replied, in a worried tone.
"Are you scared? Good! I hope you'll never be successful in life and you do not deserve to be successful at all!"
In my mom's voice, I knew she was being sarcastic. I wondered so badly what she was going to do with me and the rest of my life.
"What will my name be?"
I asked.
"I don't know, but I do know that it has to be simple!"
Mom replied.
"What do you mean 'simple?' Can you explain to me what that means, or give me an example?"
"I said I don't know. What about Harry?"
"No, of course not? That name's so embarrassing to have!"
"Did you just back talk me? Again?"
she asked firmly.
"No, I didn't! I swear! I was just making a true opinion of what I think about that name!"
Just then, a doctor came into the room.
"You should take good care of him."
He spoke.
"Okay, thank you so much mister!"
A boy walked in and replied to the doctor.
"I wish I had a different kitten!"
The boy said, walking towards me. I was shocked.
"What, what does he mean by that?"
I asked.
Before my mom could respond, the boy picked me up and left my mom. He carried me into a dark room with no light. It had a little cage inside of it. I knew where I was going, I was going into that cage.
My mom walked in.
"Nice!"
She spoke.
"What do you mean 'nice?"
I challenged her.
She rolled her eyes and watched the boy. As he was about to drop me in the cage, I jumped back, and ran out the door. Mom and the boy both ran after me but couldn't catch me. When the exit closed, and the alarm went off, I thought of what else I could do.
I got an idea that popped up into my head, just at that moment. I ran over to a long rope that was dangling down from an open window, and with all my might, I pushed myself up. I jumped out the window.
When mom ran out of the hospital, she tried to catch me. Before she could, I jumped down landing on four feet and escaped.
I noticed that I was lost. This is where this all started.
* * *
Where am I?
I thought to myself. I realized that I went too far and into the forest. The forest was big, and I was small. I was so scared; I didn't know what I should do! I decided to go deep into the forest and try to find the city.
Nothing.
Just nothing appeared, except for dark oakwood and trees.
I didn't think of giving up now, I couldn't. I didn't want to die all over here. Mom would win this battle if I did. I turned around because of a strange noise I heard from behind me. I hesitated in pain and shouted.
"Monster! There's a monster over here going to eat me!"
I didn't have enough time to think. Now was the best time to defend myself.
"I'm not going to let you win!"
I said boldly.
"Are you sure about that? You cannot face the King of the Jungle! Fighting me won't be as easy as you think it is!"
I was too terrified to even fight. I decided to give up. He stared at me, briefly.
Finally, I spoke up for myself.
"Easy for you to say!"
I replied with a grand smile on my face. This was still going to be hard, but as a cat, I knew that I was going to be hunted down. That's what cats are, they're hunters just like how other animals hunt for food too.
Before long, the Kind of the Jungle scratched me on the face, knocking me straight out and leaving me in a puddle of blood. My eyes closed and my whole body relaxed.
I woke up to find myself inside a big cage with multiple lions surrounding it.
"Look who's finally decided to wake up?"
A lion asked. I didn't respond. I couldn't, the lion scratched me on the face and on the mouth.
"If you guys haven't noticed yet, we now have a pet kitten. "
The king cat said. Just before I could stare into the King Lion's eyes, a titan robot came over crushing down all the trees and making tons of noise. I suddenly recognized that voice.
"Mom?"
I whispered in a different voice. My voice came back finally! King Cat couldn't even say a word.
Before I jumped over the bars, mom interrupted me from doing my own thing.
"What in the world are those lions doing down there?"
She exclaimed.
"Wait, you're the one I was looking for, my son!"
"You're not my son!"
"What did you just say to me?"
"You heard me! I'm not your son! You've treated me like I belonged in the dump. You treated me like I was no one, or nothing. Anything that I say about you is the truth! You don't know anything, but you know how to lie, hurt, be selfish, be a sore loser, and be a jerk to everyone!"
"You cannot say that to me! I'm your mother!"
"And you're my enemy!"
The whole crowd went silent. It was already dark. The stars and the moon came out. I didn't say anything, mom didn't say anything, the lions didn't say anything. It was silent for the rest of the night.
I felt like a failure.
I didn't expect anything to be this bad in my life. All I wanted was to have a good family, good friends, great plans, and be a hero. Now I can't. Mom has ruined my entire life. She ruined my dreams, my family, my ideas, my heroic adventures, and everything else that we could have done together.
It was silent for the rest of the night.
Everyone fell asleep, mom got down from her robot titan, and ran back into the city. The rest of us went to our places, homes, and I was the only one out there, all alone. I couldn't bear to think about anything of what just happened to me and my family, my home, the lions, or my life.
I adjusted myself and tucked onto the brown dirt. I dreamed of what could happen next. I thought of how I could change my life, or if I could have a better life at all. I got this sudden feeling that I could change my life.
How will I change it though?
I thought to myself. I closed my eyes and fell asleep.
