The night air clung to Francis, a sleek silhouette of black and grey against the weathered wood of a fence. Emerald eyes, sharp with youthful curiosity, scanned the dimly lit park beyond. He was far from home, a fact he found amusing rather than alarming. Bluebeard’s warnings echoed in his mind—'A spitfire,' they said—but Francis prided himself on his wit and memory. A rustle in the bushes broke his reverie. With a graceful leap, he landed on the dew-kissed grass, tail flicking. He approached the source of the noise, head tilted, ears perked, ready to confront the legend he’d heard so much about.
