Chapter 1

A glowing Ninetales ran thru the wood with a Meowth in her mouth. It was the dark of the night and it was raining. "The night has grown cold." She spoke with her ears up. "Darkness is consuming the land. There is already one small light. Still another could save others."

Outside of the town there was a leaf. She put the Meowth on the leaf. She look down at the little Meowth. She look down at the little Meowth. "Be careful little Meowth soon you will be on the same road as the last Bearer of the stars."

Then she was gone.

I lay there sleeping. I was shivering and cold. Slowly I open my eyes. I was wet and cold. I had no idea where I was or who I was. I did not even know how I got there. I look down at myself and saw that my hands were replace by paws. "Aaaaahhhhhh!" I scream and fall down. I look at my body all around and saw that it was all fur. I then try to run but I fall.

"Owe!" I went in pain. I then look down and saw my reflection in a puddle. I was a Meowth. "Oh Man this has to be a bad dream! Yeah that it a bad dream."

I look up at my tail and then sigh. "Alright here goes nothing." I then bite down at my tail with all my strength. "OOOWWWW!" I scream out load. I look down at my tail and turn over to my back. "Oh man this is no dream."

I was afraid. I had no way of knowing where I was or who I was. My ears went back and my tail between my legs. I did not even know my name. I was lost and alone. "Hey look what I found." A voice went, I look up to see a male milk coat Persian with red eyes. I turn off my back and kept my head low. My ears were back and my tail between my legs. "A little Meowth. Not a baby but still not an adult. Who are you kid?"

"Um I don't know… I can't remember." I spoke and did my best to crawl away. "I have to go…"

"Go where kid?" The Persian spoke. He walk in front of me. "It sound like to me you don't have to go anywhere. Tell me what do you remember?"

"Um nothing really. I remember nothing much. I don't even know where I come from." I spoke looking down miserably. "I'm sorry I will go now."

"I think not." The Persian spoke. He then grab me by the scruff of my neck. "My clan is always in need of female Meowth's."

"But why?" I ask him in fear of what is going to happen to me.

"Because when female Meowth evolve into Persians, every child they have will be a Meowth. The ones who are not are killed." The Persian explain to me. "We like to keep our Blood line as clean as possible. We only take males of other Pokémon that are not Meowth."

"No! I won't go!" I struggle in his grip. "I don't want to go! Put me down! I don't belong here!"

"That what they all say." The male Persian spoke casually. I kept struggling in vain. "Now stop struggling before I lose my patience. Little runt. Regretful a Persian clan even wants you. Daughters are being sold and traded all the time." I would not stop my struggle. Then Claw at the male muzzle. "OWE!" he went and drop me.

I then did my best to run on four legs but I only trip and fall. "Owe." I went in pain. I look up and saw the angry Persian looking down at me.

"You little bitch!" The Persian went in anger. He then sent out a shockwave. "Take this!"

"Aaaahhhhh!" I scream in pain.

I then began to past out. Before I could pass out I heard his voice. "Nighty night." He said with a wicked smile.

Deep in the forest far from Druide the Tyrant Kingdom was a canyon. There roam the Persian clan of fire. A fitting name. Their home was a waste land of head and sand. Very little water and food. The only Pokémon that inhabit the land besides Meowth was Bastiodon, Rapidash and Emboar.

Hunting was hard for the Meowth Clan of fire. There were only male hunters in in the fire clan lead by the lead hunter. It took strength to take down a Bastiodon. Here the males did all the hunting and fighting. They did not like any upstart strong willed females.

The ones who patrol the land was the lead Warrior and his worriors. They fight and kill any intruders. Unless they are from king Druide. Any male that is not killed are taken in for breeding with females. Any female that is not a Meowth or Persian are killed. The clan has no use for anything else.

Inside deep in the Canyon is cub sitters. They are female pregnant Persian or females. This is there only job the males think they can do. The females can name there Meowth, unless a male say otherwise. Yes being in the fire clan if a female can suck. But it was not always like this for the Persian fire clan. They were at the peak of wealth and they were all happy. Now they are less than happy. The fall of the Persian was hard. Their wealth was taken from them by Druide.

A lot of Persian did not know what to do with themselves. They never live a life outside of wealth. The other cat Pokémon were too good to help them. They struggle. It did not help that other Pokémon rob them, kill them and kidnap there young. The fire clan retreat to this wasteland the only place others would not want to live. There they learn to survive.

It was hard many had died. But over time they became stronger and faster. They also became more dark, possessive and cruel. They are not a clan to be mess with.

Their leader is Ubaridi. He has cold blue eyes with a red ruby on his head. He is a male with no mercy. He kills those who fail him and those who dis please him. He is a Persian without mercy. He saw his lead

He then sat on his stone platform watching other work. Making sure everything was in tight order. He then saw one of his less favorite warriors Mwisho carrying a sleeping Meowth. This pep his interest. He walk from his plat form over to Mwisho. "Mwisho why do you have a cub?" He ask as he sniff the cub. "Where did she come from?"

"I found her on the outskirts of our territory." Mwisho spoke as he lay the cub at his leader feet. "I was going to take her to one of the cub sitters."

"No she look very healthy and fit. The healthiest strong looking female so far. I will take her to my mate." He spoke. He then pick up the female Meowth. "She will be a good pair for my son Bingwa."

"Yes my King." Mwisho spoke and began to walk away. "I have work to do."

Ubaridi walk to his den with the little female Meowth in his mouth. He walk to his den. His den was the biggest of them all. In fact it had six sections. The five sections were for his wives and kids. His first wife was his favorite. Her name Was Mke. Her fur was snow white and blue eyes. The ruby on her head was also white. His heir was Bingwa. Still she was cruel and spiteful to the other wives and children. She use her charm to get whatever he wanted.

His second wife was MpenZi. Her fur was much darker and her eyes ruby red. She was crazy for her husband and would hurt anyone to gain his favor. She gave him a daughter name Ijayo. He plan to give her to another clan to gain favor with them.

His third wife name was Kuumiza. Someone he grew up with. She was always afraid of him. She had grey fur and red big eyes. She always kept her head low around him. She gave him a small son name Ndogo. The only reason he kept her around was the fact that she is fun to torture.

His fourth wife Uzuri. She was Beautiful. She was strong, wise and nice. She did not like Ubaridi much. His main goal in life was to break her. To show her that she was nothing but a breading partner. She gave him a weak son kutomba. He would use him to make her weak her or make her do what he says.

His last wife name was Asili. She was a spiteful female with a son that could match Mke. Her son name was Nguvu. She saw this son as her chance to have something better. She is right of course. So Mke is doing as she can to keep Asili down. Mke is nice to all cubs. She see them as her future workers.

But none of them would like Ubaridi bring them. Most of all not Mke. He walk in his cave. He walk down a tunnel and as he walk he could hear his wives arguing again. He roll his eyes as he kept walking.

"Mke I dare you to touch my son again bitch!" Uzuri snarl at Mke. "Just because you're the favorite does not mean you can abuse whoever you want."

"Oh contrary Uzuri. I had his heir so I can do whatever I want. You and that weak thing of a son you have, should just kill yourself." Mke laugh happily. "Oh and take Kuumiza with you and her son. They get annoying with all there crying."

Kuumiza look down sadly as her son nuzzle her. "It ok mom. I think you're great." Ndogo spoke happily. "One day we won't have to be here anymore."

"Yeah an anything can happen to you while you sleep." Asili spoke as she look at her claws. "Then I can be in charge with my son."

"Careful Asili You won't have my position so easily." Mke shot at her. "You got lucky when you spawn that dam cub of yours. Now all you dam bitches out."

"That is quite enough lady's." Ubaridi spoke as he look at them all. "All of you out while I talk to Mke." All four of them walk out as they look at the sleeping Meowth cub in his mouth. He sat the little cub down. Once they were all out he spoke. "Here is our son future wife."

"What who is she?" Mke said looking at the little cub in disgust.

"Don't know she don't have a name." Ubaridi shrug his shoulder. Bingwa walk forward and look down at the female cub Meowth. He look displease with her as if to say he should have better. "She will be our son wife when she come of age."

"What?! No give her to one of the cub sitters." Mke yell upset. Bingwa growl at the cub and wanted to hit her. But dare not in his father sight. "I mean we do not know where she came from. Not even what clan."

"That matter not to me women. She stay and that is final." Ubaridi spoke and walk out of the cave. His wives leave from spying going back to their caves. He then stops. "Also clean her up. If she does not look good in the morning then expect punishment."

Mke look down in submission. "Yes dear." She said. Ubaridi then left with a nod of his head. Mke walk over and pick up the female cub. "Oh man why does this always happen to me. It's tuff being on top."

"Mom do I have to marry her?" Bingwa grumble looking down at the unknown Meowth female. "I mean look at her. Look at all that hair. It even covers one side of her face."

"Your father word is final here Bingwa." Mke spoke to her son as she lick the female Meowth. "Maybe something better will come along and we won't have to deal with her anymore. Until then she will look like a child of mine."

"I still don't like. She not small like the other girls." Bingwa complain. "How am I supposed to control her once she gets bigger? Huh? Growl this is no good for a future leader like me."

"Don't worry if it comes to that I will make sure she is well behave by then?" Mke spoke as she lick the female some more. "Besides she can give you strong sons. Any females can be ship off. Don't forget your mommy dear."

"Ok mommy." Bingwa spoke as his mother continued to wash the baby Meowth.

I slowly open my eyes. I look up to see a Meowth and a Persian. I look with fear and brought my ears back and tail between my legs. "Hello My name is Mke and this is my son Bingwa. Welcome to our home." I look at them with wide eyes. I then got up and try to run. Mke stop me with her paw. "Listen I will not hurt you, but if you keep this up I will punish you."

My eyes went wide with that and I claw her across the face. "Leave me alone." I yell at her and then ran as she yell in pain and grab her face. "I got to get out of here!"

"Hey!" Bingwa went and chase after me. "How dare you do this to my mommy? Only my dad can do that!"

As I ran out he was right on my tail. I was not very fast due to the fact that I was having a hard time on four feet. How did I even get here? I mean I know I'm not a Meowth but somehow I had become one. What was I then? What was my name? As I ran Bingwa was right on my tail. "You cannot escape!" Bingwa yell.

"Someone help!" I scream and bump into someone leg. I look up to see a male Persian looking down at me. His eyes were cold.

"Where are you going?" He spoke and smack me to the ground. He then look up to see his son. "Bingwa what is she doing out of the den? Where is your mother? Can she do anything right?"

"She attack mother father. Fury swipe her across her across the face." Bingwa spoke with his ears back and tail down. "I was trying to get her back to the cave father."

"I see." The male spoke and put his paw down on my side. "Alright then. Go get everyone and your siblings. I want a word with everyone."

"Yes father." Bingwa spoke and ran off. His tail between his legs and ears back.

He then look down at me. I wanted to fight but the look he gave me made me fearful. He then bind down open his moth. I could see all his sharp teeth. "Growl!" He went. I look away in fear. He then pick me up by the scruff of my neck. He walk me to a huge section of a cave. It was huge. There were pelts of other Pokémon and skulls. It was decorated and a huge platform in the middle of it. On the platform was a bed with a red blanket and pillows. He walk over to his bed and drop me at his feet. He look down at me and me him in fear. "Now I will ask this once cub." He spoke with a cold voice. "Who are you?"

"I...I…I don't know." I spoke with my ears back and tail between my legs. "I just woke up and my memory was gone. I don't know what you want, but I don't have anything."

"Hhmm…." He went thinking. "I believe you."

"You do?" I said in surprise.

"Yes I do. No female Meowth would venture here on purpose." He spoke to me I felt relieve. He then stood up to walk around me. "Still I guess questioning you would be pointless. But until I find out if you're a danger to my clan you will stay here."

"What why?" I spoke standing up with my tail in the air and ears up. I was doing all the wrong moves. He growl and pin me with his paw.

"Because I don't know if you're a danger or not. Oh and never raise your tail or ears in the presence of an older. It's very rude." He spoke calmly. "Now I guess you need a name little one. Moto would be suitable."

"But I don't want to be called Moto!" I yell at him he only press down harder on me. I yelp in pain.

"You are only a child." He spoke. He then sat on the platform as five Persian's and Meowth walk in. they all sat down apart from one another. "Quiet now. Your elders are about to speak."

"You call for us Ubaridi." Uzuri spoke with her son Kutomba next to her. Kutomba look quiet fearful at his father. He kept his eyes to the floor. "Please tell me you did not call us here to waste our time."

"Watch your tone Uzuri." Ubaridi spoke with annoyance. "As you all know I had brought a Meowth in to be raise along with our cubs." They all look at each other. "She has no memory of her past life. She do not even know her name. So I have chosen a name for her." They all look at me as he pin me with his paw. "Her name is Moto now. She will be rise by Mke and is the betrothal of my son."

"What!" I scream under his paw as he push hard on me.

"Ubaridi be reasonable." Uzuri spoke looking at him in disbelief. "She can be the daughter of some clan. Her parents could be worry sick. You just can't marry her to your son."

"I can and I will Uzuri." Ubaridi spoke in a command in his voice.

"I don't care if this strange cub is a part of our family or not." Asili spoke with her ears back. Her son Nguvu look at me under his father paw. He looked a bit worry. "But are you sure you do not want to betroth her to another one of your son's my lord? I mean surely Nguvu is more deserving then Bingwa. I mean him already starting his training for lead warrior."

"I'm sure Asili. Nguvu have the potential to make a great leader. But still he is still a few minutes younger then Bingwa and I have already made up my mind." Ubaridi spoke with his ears back.

"hehehe." Mpenzi laugh with a chuckled. Asili growl at her with her claws out. "My lord will it not make more sense than to give her to me. Girls should be with girls. I can teach her to be a worthy wife for your son."

"No! She stay with Mke." Ubaridi spoke. He then growl at Mpenzi. "As for you Mpenzi, watch your step. At least Asili gave me a son. What did I get from you? A useless daughter!" Ijayo look down with sadness. "The only thing she is good for is making a good baring with the forest Clan."

Mpenzi look down with sadness. "You can't blame me for having a girl. I swear my king I can give you another son give me a chance!"

"No! No more chance!" Ubaridi roar at her. "No back to the matter at hand. I will send some warriors out to see if she has a clan. Not that it will change anything." Uzuri sigh at least he did something. Ubaridi smile evilly at Kuumiza. "Which reminds me Ndogo will be training with the warriors as well."

"What!" Kuumiza said with her ears back bringing her head up. "Please Ubaridi reconsider!" Ndogo look fearful as he hid behind his mother paws. "He not strong enough to train with them. He'll only get hurt."

"That not my problem Kuumiza." Ubaridi spoke not caring at all. He then turn to Mke. "Now if that is all Mke take Moto and leave me. All of you out."

"Yes my lord." Mke said with a smile as she grab me by the body and carry me out of the cave. Bingwa follow behind her with his head in the air. She walk by all the mother with a smug look. "Better luck next time bitches."

They all growl at her accept Kuumiza who was still in fear of what to do about her son. Once inside of her cave Uzuri sat me down. She still had the claw mark on her face. She pin my tail with paw. She look down at me with a snarl on her face. "Now listen well I will let go of your little stunt from before because you didn't know any better Moto."

I growl at her with my tail up and ears up. "Shut up that not my name!" I snarl at her. "I may not know what my name is but I will not be called by what he wanted."

"You really did hit your head didn't you?" Mke spoke looking down at me. I look at her confuse but she kept talking. "Here males have all the power. If they want to change your name or give you a new one, then it will be it. Moto."

"Growl!" I went in anger. "I just won't respond to it!"

"If I was you I cut the attitude." Mke spoke with her ears back. "Or you will find yourself at ends of a punishment. Is that understood?"

"You're crazy!" I spoke with a growl.

"Tisk. Well I will not be punish base on your actions or words around here." She spoke and I saw her bring her claws out. My heart beat faster as I watch her lift her paw. "So I will punish you myself!

"Wham!"

I then flew and hit the wall. I hit my head hard. It was even bleeding. Bingwa watch with wide eyes. "Mother!" he went surprise. "Did you kill her?"

"No son. I simply teach her a lesson." Mke went and walk over to me. I look up at her weekly and in the corner of my eye I saw a small Meowth cub run off. "She will think twice before standing against me."

I slowly reawaken to someone licking my bloody head. "I can't believe you Mke! The poor girl lost her memory already. Of course she won't listen to you." Uzuri went with anger as she lick my head. "Not when you act like a man women!"

"Better soon or never she learn to respect me." Mke spoke as she lick her paws. "Now give her back so I can clean her properly and make her better."

"Fine but the next time my son see this type of abuse I will take her from you Mke!" Uzuri went as Mke grab me by the scruff of my neck. "You and I both know you cannot take me down."

"Growl tell that pathetic excuses of a son you have to stop spying on me." Mke snarl at her. "Or the next time he will feel my claws."

"Watch your word bitch!" Uzuri snarl with her teeth showing. I look down from where Mke was carrying me. I saw a little weak looking skinny Meowth. "Or you will feel my claws."

"pfft.." Mke went.

The next day I was eating with the Meowth's as the Persian's eat a Rappidash. We were eating or sharing a chunk of meat. While we ate I was getting to know some of the Meowth's.

"So you're the new kid huh?" Bingwa growl looking down at me with some blood on his check. "I want no more misbehaving! I never seen my mother so mad before."

"Would you stop talking to me like I'm some child?" I snap at him with a snarl at him. "For your info I'm not that young."

"None of us are but were called cubs till we evolve." Nguvu spoke calmly a he ate. "Also leave her alone. We have more important things to do then talk to a useless female. We have training."

"Snarl! Who the hell do you think you are?" I snarl at the male. "I may be the girl but that don't mean I'm useless."

"yeah. I know." Nguvu spoke and turn to walk away with Bingwa. "Youll be a breeder when you evolve. Now Ndogo and Kutomba let's go. Dad wants you two to train."

"Ok…" Ndogo spoke and follow his brothers. I look at them and saw Bingwa stick his tongue at me.

"Sigh ok." Kutomba ears went back with his tail between his legs. "I don't want to be the other Meowth punching bags."

I snarl at the males and watch them leave. I look at Ijayo at me with pity. She walk over to me as I look the other way. Ijayo walk over to me. "Hey don't let them get you down." She spoke to me with her ears back. "Hey maybe we can do something."

"No thanks." I spoke looking down and look back up at her. "Hey do you know a way out of here?"

"No. If any Meowth try to leave the clan will be hunted down and killed." Ijayo spoke sadly. She then perk up. "But soon I won't have to be here when I evolve. I will be ship off to be marry and I will have so much freedom."

"Oh that's cool." I spoke with a smile. "But I don't want to marry Bingwa he's just a jerk. Growl… Hey what do you do for fun?"

"She just laze about like a high class female should and think about how to be a good wife!" I look up and saw Ijayo angry mother looking down at me. Mpenzi pick her daughter up by the scruff. "Ijayo let's go you need a bath anyway."

"Ugghhh mom." Ijayo spoke with her ears back upset.

I watch her walk off with Ijayo and I just look dumbfounded. "Well she just pleasant." I spoke with my ears up in a sarcastic tone. The other mothers finish there meal and just leave me there. Mke gave me a look of disgust and walk off. "Dam what I am going to do now. I can't escape what if that ass hole find me again."

A few hours went by and I explore the caves. I believe that it was time to get use to my new form. I don't know what I was before I transform but I knew I was not a Meowth. I try pouncing and stalk a bug. My claws were very sharp and strong as I climb on things and jump from thing to thing. To be honest I was having a good time by myself.

I went into Ubaridi section of the cave and to be honest his room creep me out. "Jess what a creepy Pokémon." I spoke with my ears up and tail down. "At least there is a lot of things to pounce on." So for a few minutes I climb and pounce on a bunch of things.

"Hey Meowth are you in here?" I hear a voice and saw Ijayo. "Oh there you are. Come here I want to talk with you away from all the mothers."

I look at her with confusion. I jump of the skull and onto another till I got to the ground. I walk over to her with my ears up in confusion. "Hey what's up?" I ask her with confusion. "I didn't break anything."

"I know you did not." Ijayo spoke and look over her shoulder. "Look the moms are sleeping. My brothers and dad won't be back till night time. So we have some time."

"Some time for what?" I ask her with confusion.

"I'll tell you once we get there." Ijayo spoke. "Now follow me." Not wanting to argue I just follow her. She led me to a wall in her father room. She push down on a stone and a secret wall was open.

"Wow! How did you manage this?" I ask her with a surprise.

"This tunnel was a bit already here. I dug the wall open and replace it with a stone." She spoke and walk in front of me. "Now follow me ok. We need to talk in a safe place."

"Um ok." I follow her into the tunnel and the tunnel close back up again. As we walk she let out a huge shockwave lighting up the cave setting the torch a flame.

I follow her down the dark tunnel. We did not speak to each other at all. I look around the cave and saw how much she use this cave. As we walk I heard screams and crying. I look around for where it was coming from and saw a tiny hole. I walk over to it and bind down to see where that noise came from.

What I saw shock me. A bunch of different wide range of male Pokémon. It was horrible. Some of the male Pokémon were getting beat by the male Persian. Others were digging and moving rocks. They look miserable. "Ijayo look at this?" I told her she stop and walk over to me. "I thought only Meowth's are a part of the clan?"

"Only Meowth can be part of the clan." Ijayo spoke with her ears back as she bind down looking out of the hole. "They are slaves and breeders. They work to make more tunnels and breed with the lower Persians. Pureblooded Persians get better treatment. Now let's go."

"That horrible. How can anyone let this go on?" I ask her with my ears back. "I mean this can't be right."

"Sigh look agree with you. But you must understand everyone who is a slave here are undesirables to Druide the new king. He came in power for ten years. Evil baster." Ijayo ears were back as she walk with her claws out.

"King?" I spoke in confusion.

"Yes we Pokémon have king and queens." Ijayo ears were back. I follow her with my ears back as she spoke. The more she spoke the madder she became. "Now back to what I was saying. We Persian's and Meowth's are just fine with the old king. But he was killed by Druide. Now the undesirable are Normal, Flying, bug, rock, ghost, dragon, dark, steel, Ice, poison, ground, flying, bug and rock was thrown out or had lost any and all wealth they had. We suffer a lot. Injustice is everywhere and there no one to stop them."

"Oh I'm sorry that your people lost everything to that jerk." I spoke looking down with sadness. "Maybe there is something we can do. Something we can fix."

"Yes there is something we can do." She stop and turn to look at me. "Were here." I look around a bit confuse. "Do you see that big cave hole over there?" I nod my head. "What do you see?"

I walk over to the big cave hole. It was well cover by the sand dunes. But looking past it I could see Meowth males training and sparing. While the Persian's look on and yell at them. "Wow. Their training." I spoke to her. "But this lead the way out of the clan right? Why not just run away?"

"I can't. Not yet, I'm not ready. If I try to leave now they just catch me. My father already think I'm useless. He would kill me for such an offense." Ijayo spoke with her ears back. I turn my head back at her as she spoke. "That where you come in. I have been training for years. Watching them and pushing myself. But I lack a sparring partner. So I was hoping you become my sparring partner. Once I think were strong enough we will leave in the night. One day I will be back to free my mother and those who are enslave here. Then I will banish my father. What do you say Meowth."

I look down and back at her. "You're the only one who respect the fact that I don't want to be called Moto. I need to be strong if I'm going to escape from here." I then look up at her and smile. "Alright I will do it!"

"Prefect! We will work here every day." Ijayo spoke with a smile. "Now let's get some practice done here before we go back to the den."

So every day I and Ijayo would sneak away. We would go to our training spot. We train and spar for a whole month. Ijayo teach me everything about pouncing and stalking. She would hide object and told me to sniff it out. We would get dirty and be back before anyone notice we were gone.

Mke and her son was a pain in the ass. The worst part was even though I could fight now I had to seem weak or Ubaridi would suspect something.

But in this time I grew to hate Ubaridi. He was abusive and cruel. He would beat on Kuumiza verbally abuse Ndogo. Everyday Ndogo would come home batter and bruise. I would nuzzle him and try to make him feel better. Much to Bingwa dislike. I would always get snarls from him.

"You're supposed to be my future mate!" Bingwa would say with a snarl. "Not nuzzling that weak brat Moto."

"My name is not Moto!" I snarl at him. "I will never be your mate you horrible male!"

"You will be whatever I call you! You stupid female! My dad say so." Bingwa would yell back at me "As a female you are nothing but property."

"Growl! Snarl!" I went. It was always hard not to try and fight him. But I had a secret to keep. I could not let him stand in the way of my training. Ijayo was ruff in training. She held nothing back and in turn neither did I? I even mange to learn a new attack. Shadow ball. I began to like Ijayo. I respect her and saw her as a friend.

We became very close and strong for two Meowth. Thanks to the Persian training the males and we watching. We learn skills thanks to them and even where some pray hiding in hard conditions. This would be useful to us once we were gone.
