I’ve been showing you a
glimpse into Estelle’s secret life as Super Starrella. Last week, Starrella’s
winged mare, Rockette, was rescued by a large cat. You can read last week’s
snippet here: http://auroraspringer.blogspot.com/2016/06/rockette-in-trouble-snippet-from-super.html
Starrella raced to her mare. The
big cat turned to face her, bared its curved fangs and snarled. Halting
cautiously, Starrella tossed her hair back over her shoulders and stared at the
powerful black cat. Nearly as tall as the mare, its sleek black fur had the
pale yellow splotches of a South American jaguar.
A faint sound called her
attention to the dark side of the building.
A man stepped out of the darkness,
all in black except for his eyes. In the dull black material of his
close-fitting suit, he was almost invisible, like a moving shadow. Even so, she
recognized his distinctive broad shoulders and muscular arms.
“Toby!” Starrella cried. “What
the heck is going on?”
What indeed? So here you see another facet of
the mysterious Toby.

At least she has found her mare and she's safe. Scary cat.
ReplyDeleteThe cat is an important character.
DeleteOh yes, how is Toby involved? Great snippet!
ReplyDeleteOkay, you'll learn at little more next week.
DeleteHmmm. Nice Teaser, Aurora.
ReplyDeleteI am very intrigued by the title of your sequel!
This story has a lot of twists.
DeleteGlad Rockette and Starrella are both safe. I want to know what the heck is going on with Toby, too!
ReplyDeleteHe's a mystery man!
DeleteI don't know that I'd want to take my eyes off that cat!
ReplyDeleteHe's a real carnivore!
DeleteVery intriguing! There has to be some connection in all that blackness. ;-)

Good observation. Although Starrella turns her costume to black when she flies at night.
DeleteOoh, I thought maybe Toby WAS the cat, but maybe the cat is to him what Rockette is to Starella?
ReplyDeleteYou've got it this time!
DeleteI think the cat is fascinating and can't wait to learn more. And I was nicely surprised that Toby is NOT the cat, so well done.
ReplyDeleteI don't want to bore you!
DeleteSounds like an interesting story. I look forward to reading more. :)
ReplyDeleteYou had me at big black cat. Bonded big black cat, I hope.
ReplyDeleteDangerous black jaguar! I have a regular size black cat who eats too much!
DeleteWe've a mini panther in the form of a 6kg, big-boned boy... biggest wuss of our bunch.
DeleteNow THAT is an entrance. Great writing! :D
ReplyDeleteYes, they're super!
ReplyDeleteOh, a jaguar! You know I love that! Great snippet!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteI'm guessing that Toby and the cat are connected?
ReplyDeleteCorrect!
DeleteWoohoo..things are getting good!
ReplyDeleteYes, if you mean she has discovered more of Toby's secrets.
