#2: As I stare up at the cold, gray sky, I think about Zelda, and I wonder where she could be. I do hope we find her soon. If we don't, what will Goldie do? She'd get so upset if she knew what actually happened to Zelda.....
#3: Still holding the dagger, I realize I'm sweating. Goldie and Zelda look so scared, but they know just as well as I do that I've got to do this. I close my eyes. I can't watch. And then, in a single motion, I swing my arm down, down, down.....
#4: What a perfect day, I think to myself happily. If only my whole life were like this! If only the others were here to see it, it would be even more perfect.I wonder where they are, anyways? No, I musn't think about that right now, I've got to think of happy things, like....

Book 2; chapter 1 (con.)
Chapter 1
(Nibbles' point of view)
I'm not really sure how I got there-- just standing in the holly bush --when all of a sudden the world was extremely bright, and I closed my eyes. Instinct told me something bad was about to happen, but I couldn't open my eyes; I would be blinded.
From there on, my fate was sealed.
"Get him inside," a gruff voice said. Rough hands grabbed me, and I was tossed into a metal cage.
A high-pitched squealing sound pierced my ears, and I finally opened my eyes. The world was black. It took a long time for my eyes to adjust, but when they did, realization struck.
***{I will be adding more soon, keep checking!}***

Aren't we all just SO excited for Book 2?
Just because you're reading this, I'm giving you a preview of Nibbles Book 2, Chapter 1:
Chapter 1
(Nibbles' point of view)
Summer is my favourite time of year. Especially the first day --sometime in July-- when it's warm, the sun is shining, and the children are playing and laughing. This year was no different; it was a beautiful day, warm and sunny, and everything was in it's place.
Everything except me.
Want to read more? Keep checking my blog for the continuation of Chapter 1!
