Once, there was a girl, her name was Lily. Lily was very shy, and had very little friends. She loved to explore on the woods, and her favorite animal was the fox, and though she had never seen one before, she hoped to one day. One day while exploring in the woods, she heard men yelling, horses galloping, and dogs barking. As any young, curious child would, she decided to investigate. She watched then from afar, and realized they were chasing something. She followed trying to see what. After a while, they came to a stop, between to trees actually. The dogs started to dig up a burrow between the two trees, but the men stopped them. The five men and two dwarfs started to dig with shovels they had brought along on their cart. They pulled out a mother and all six of her cubs. Lily saw that each one had a beautiful golden orange coat, with big orange eyes. Exept one, which had a shiny, silverish white coat, with big bluish, snow colored eyes. Lily watched in horror as they brutally killed them with hits to the head with shovels, and threw them onto their cart. As they held the shovel up towards the silver coated baby, Lily took action. She ran and snatched the child up and made a run for it, the men tried to catch her, but knew it wasn't worth it. Once Lily felt safe, she sat down on a log, and admired the beautiful fox. "Ill call you... Snow!" Said Lily happily. She slipped Snow into her duffel bag with her head sticking out, and went home. Her parents, as usual, played to attention to her at all as she grabbed dinner and ran up to her room. "Hmmm... You're obviously to old for bottle feeding... Good thing to!" Lily talked to Snow. "Finally! I gave a friend! I hope my parents don't mind..." Lily's voice changed from a happy tone to a much, much sadder tone. She shared her food with Snow and they cuddled and went to sleep. A great friendship started that day. The next day, Lily woke up to Snow sniffing her face. She giggled and picked Snow up, "Its time to tell my parents, I can't just keep this a secret." Lily whispered. She went down. "Mom?! Dad?!" Lily yelled. They were in shock. "How did u find such a creature?" Her mom managed to say, over her shock. "Why would you bring a rabid animal here?!" Her dad angrily scolded. Lily explained everything, and pleaded to keep Snow, "Please? I can take care of her and they killed her family, she needs me! I need her!" Her parents thought about it, and agreed. Her dad hated the idea, but knew how lonely Lily was. Lily thanked them and ran up to her room. Later that day, Lily had a doctors appointment, so she fed Snow and gently stroked her. "Ill be back, I promise!" She comforted Snow. She then left with her mother. Snow decided to explore, and went to the kitchen, she knocked a lot of food over, and created a huge mess. Later the dad went inti the kitchen, feeling famished, and when he saw the mess, he was infuriated. "Ugh! Must've been that stupid fox!!!" He said to himself. He went to Lily's room, grabbed the Snow by the scruff, and threw her down stairs, Snow whimpered in pain as he grabbed her again and carried her outside into a very tiny cage, one that would usually be used for a small animal, like a slightly oversized rabbit. He left her there for a few hours, ignoring her whimpers, cries for help, and hunger. When Lily got home, the first thing she did was run to her room. She couldn't find Snow, and she looked everywhere! "Has anybody seen Snow?" Lily questioned. The dad lied and said that she got away and died. This broke Lily. For three days Lily had searched, and for three days, Snow was in a small cage with no food, or the medical help that was needed. Finally, on the forth day, when Lily was heading home from a long days of searching, see heard Snows cries, and found her! Snow and Lily were sk relived, and she ran inside clutching Snow. Lily wanted to know how Snow got in the cage in the first place. Her dad was so guilty, and for hours on end they argued about her being just a baby and abuse and the mess in the kitchen while Lily's mom fed and doctored Snow, since she was a vet. A few years later, Snows and Lily's relationship only grew, and they had been on many adventures. Snow was all grown up, and that day, like any other day, they were exploring. But, Lily saw the men, she gasped in horror, and hid, but it was to late. The men ran at her and grabbed her by the arm, throwing her on the cart, tying her up, and ducktaping her mouth shut. They then went for Snow, "Haha! I've been waiting a long time for this!" The seven men leader laughed. Snow bit his finger and he helped in pain, dropping Snow, and she made a run for it. The men were satifyed with the girl, and went to there secret cabin in the woods, not knowing Snow followed them. After Snow knew the destination, she ran home and tried to get Lily's parents attention. The dad kicked Lily in the throat and she yelped, so she went to the mom. "Where's Lily?" She nervously asked. Snow tugged at her skirt, so she followed, asking the husband to come to. She led them all the there, and saw Lily tied to a tree. They were in shock. Lily's mom told her they would be back with the cops, and Lily knew she wasn't lying. About forty five minutes later, eleven cops showed up. They arrested all seven up the men, and Lily was safe.
