The great escape - a fiction story
This is a fiction story I wrote for a writing project. I hope you like it.
There once was a cat named Dulce. She was a small cat with black stripes and gray fur and an orange spot on her head and green sharp eyes.
When Dulce and her owner Maria went in the back yard Dulce said, “I wish I did not have to wear a halter and a leash.”
When Maria heard her cat meow she told her that she had to wear the halter or she would get lost. Dulce said, “I will never get lost if you just let me go. I will come back soon. ”
Then Dulce saw a chance to slip out of her halter when Maria was not looking. So she did and ran away before Maria saw her.
Dulce went to the neighbors yard to walk across it and smell the grass. She saw that there was a dog not far from where she was so she made a dash for it.
She heard the dog barking close behind when she was slowing down and almost out of breath. The dog close behind her yelled in pain and Dulce realized he had a collar on his neck. That made the dog not able to catch her.
Dulce said, “Don't you ever chase me a again bad dog.”
The dog barked angrily but walked back to where he was sitting before he saw Dulce in his yard.
Dulce continued her walk along the street. It was a good walk. She heard dogs barking but she hid quickly every time.
She walked some more until she sniffed a familiar scent. The scent of Maria’s granddad.
Dulce thought it would be fun to go spy on granddad so she did. He was working on his car. Dulce said, “That is the brightest car I have ever seen. It looks like the color of your painted bathroom.” Dulce knew this because she had been in granddad’s house before with Maria when they took a picture for Christmas.
Dulce thought she should go home after spying because she thought Maria would probably be sad and missing her. So she walked to the end of granddad’s drive way to walk back home.
It seemed like the walk took forever. She saw so many dogs she thought there should be a cat town not dog town in their neighborhood. Dogs, she thought, were the nosiest things in the world. They always ruined her beauty cat naps.
Dulce went back home and snuck up behind Maria and heard that she was crying. Dulce jumped on top of Maria’s head and said, “I am home Maria! I am home Maria!”
Maria screamed when she recognized Dulce because she was so happy. She hugged Dulce and told her, “You are the naughtiest cat in the world but I love you anyway Dulce.”
Dulce purred and said,” I love being with you too Maria. I will never leave you again.”
