My love,
It’s with my sincerest regret to write this in a letter. But the truth stands and I will not be seeing you for a long time. While I am the Frank Foster you know and love, it is also true that I am Cat Man. And the Dogs have found me and are on their way now. I understand that this will come as a shock to you, but you must know that I love with you all that I have, and it breaks my heart to write this.
I’ve not much time left. I do hope to see you on the other side of this. But. Oh I just love you so much, I should have been honest and told you about this. You’d surly of had a solution.

Through my grinning smile I spotted my parents, small as ants, “WE’RE FLYING!”
She stepped out the rackety front porch door, where she had a clear view of the rolling paines she called home. A rush of cool air met her, followed by the still, humid air that sat on the prairie this time of year. The few cattle in view huddled together near the wind break. Preparing for Spring to bring her wrath. She could feel the condensation on her bare arms, a chill shuddered down her spine. The pressure is dropping. The rumbles and clashes taunting her, she paused as the first drop hit her in the chest, thinking of the sound sleep she would get tonight.
