The smell of smoke crept into Tavar's nose. He then heard foot steps coming his way.
"Tavar! We have to get out of here now! There's a fire!"
Tavar's adoptive mom, Amor, shouted. As Amor was leading Tavar at the edge of her territory, he heard a loud snap, he felt Amor push him to the ground. He quickly got up and frantically started shouting for his adoptive mom.
Tavar:"Amor! Amor! Where are you?! Amor!"
He then spun around as he heard panting and coughing right behind him.
"Amor! Amor, is that you? Are you ok?"
He waited for her reply.
"Mom!?" He shouted, hoping to hear her voice
Amor:"Tavar, you're going to have to go without me."
Tavar froze, tears slowly welling up in his eyes.
Tavar: But... but what about you? I... I can't just leave you here mom..."
Amor:" Just run straight, once you feel rocks and dirt under your feet, you should be at the edge of the territory! I will soon join you! Now hurry! Go now, Tavar! I promise I will find you!"
Tavar ran as fast as he could, tears falling down his cheeks, he soon finally made it to the edge of the territory...
