Author's Note:

Hello and welcome to Book Two of the Breaking Boundaries series! If you haven't read Book One then I'd recommend you immediately go back and read Book One so you can understand all the references and separate things that go on throughout the book.

All you guys who want to keep track of this story like you did the last one, remember to follow the story!

The first thing I'm going to say about Book Two is that this book might take a few weird twists or have a few weird plots. This book will definitely be less like a typical Warriors story than maybe Book One.

The second thing I'll say is that there will not be any more POVs from the last book's main character Nightfang. His story has almost ended. It's time for it to be continued by some new cats.

You will see our first POV below :3

Anyways, on to the story!


Chapter One:


A cat was staring up at the sky, watching the clouds roll by. She was silent. What could she do? She was all alone. Her family was gone, and she had no one to accompany her to her destination. She was too young for this, but she just had such great luck that it had happened anyways. No more stories of their mother, who had died when they were still fairly young. No more stories of the cat that killed their mother. No more stories of adventure, and of faraway groups of cats. Just her. Alone in a slowly dimming forest. The sun was setting, which meant she had to be on her way.

She didn't want to become prey just like her father.


Earlier...


Light narrowed her eyes, tensing her body. She slinked forward, being careful to place equal pressure on all four paws. Her tail was twitching in excitement, but her prey hadn't noticed a thing yet. It was completely still, twitching slightly in the breeze. Grinning, she braced her hind-legs to pounce. She had this. She had to show her dad that she was ready to hunt for herself. She didn't want to be stuck in the den forever. He had already let Ginger go out on her first hunting trip, and she had told Light that she had nearly caught a thrush!

She launched herself at her prey, focusing as much as she could. She managed to land on top of it, making her yell in triumph as she bent down and bit her prey's neck. Her father was going to be so proud when...

"Light get off the leaf, it isn't going to run away," Night's voice called as the pitch-black tom padded into the clearing, a bundle of moss tucked under his chin. Light giggled, as it looked quite hilarious.

She got off the leaf and bounded up to him, purring and nuzzling one his front legs with her muzzle. He smiled slightly, bending down to drop the moss next to Light. He licked her head, murmuring, "Soon I'm going to have to take you out with your sister. You're growing fast, in both your skill and your size."

"But will I ever be as tall as you?" She mewed, looking down, seeing that her head wasn't yet at her dad's shoulder yet. How could a cat get as tall as her father? It seemed impossible to her little kit mindset.

Night chuckled, "I don't see why you can't be my height. Your mother wasn't that much smaller than me. You might even be taller, if you're lucky." He glanced over towards their den, mewing, "Can you wake up your sister Light?"

Light nodded and quickly made her way to their den. It was an abandoned cave. Night had once told them that this was where he woke up after he first lost his eye, but Light had never figured out if that was true or just a story to get them to feel a connection to their home. Regardless, it was nice enough. She bounded over to her sister, who was sleeping in their nest, and began nudging her awake.

Ginger crack one of her eyes slightly open, groaning. "What is it Light?" She mewed, clearly thinking she just wanted to play or something of that sort. Ginger was sleeping as she had been on a little hunting trip with their father that morning.

Light grinned, "I'm not completely sure, but father wants us to both be with him. I think we can finally hunt together!" She touched the tip of her tail to her sister's cheek, taking in her sister's familiar scent. Her sister's scent always made her feel good, even when things were not as good.

Ginger immediately perked up, her whiskers twitching, "Hunting? Again? Night's never taken me hunting twice in one day!" She popped up out of her nest, standing just in front of Light. Ginger was a very tiny bit taller than Light, and her fur was a more darker ginger than Light's.

Light frowned, "He's never taken me hunting once in one day!" However, she didn't wait for an answer as she heard Night pacing outside. They should go. She ran out, mewing, "Come on Ginger! Let's go!"

Once the two sisters made it to their father, Night mewed calmly, "Okay, we are going on a hunting trip right now. Light, since I've decided you are ready enough, you are coming with us. Just stick with your sister and you should be fine.

Light nodded excitedly, pressing up against Ginger as if to prove her point, which made Ginger flick her tail, amused.

Night beckoned them to follow, and so they did, their heads held high at the though of each catching their first prey. However, while it was a good day for hunting, it was not a good day for them.

First, Night had easily caught a vole that had been sneaking through some bushes. Then, Light had carefully followed the trail of a mouse, only for a scream to interrupt her stalking, sending her mouse skittering away. She gasped as she realized that scream had come from her sister, who was in a nearby clearing looking for birds. She quickly sprinted towards the spot.

Once she got there, she saw a terrifying site. There was a giant creature standing over Ginger. It was very menacing, and it looked exactly like their father had described them. It was a badger.

The badger was about to go for her sister when suddenly their father came sprinting from the opposite entrance, jumping on the badger's back and sinking his claws in, causing it to back away from Ginger and focus on Night. Light watched in horror as the badger shook their father off and faced him. Could Night fight a badger?

However, them staying to watch wasn't in Night's plans apparently, as he quickly yelled, "Run kits! Run!" Ginger quickly ran over to Light, and they both back away tot he edge of the clearing. Neither of them wanted to leave their father behind. However, if Night noticed this, he said nothing, as he was in the midst of dodging and slashing and cutting with the badger.

It all seemed to be quite even, but then something horrific happened. Their father's throat was cut by the badger. He stumbled back, coughing, which left an opening for the badger, which immediately started tearing into the cat that meant the most to the two kits. Light gasped, and time seemed to freeze. She could see blood pouring, turning the soil red. She could see their father collapsing to the ground. However, she couldn't connect. Her mind was refusing to accept what was happening. It was only her sister pushing her into the forest that saved her from getting seen and killed by the badger as well.

She blindly followed her sister as they pushed on until they reached the area of their den. She followed her to their nest and laid down next to her sister, still not comprehending any of what happened. She quickly fell asleep, her concerns briefly fading away.

When she woke up, she saw her sister at the entrance to the den, sitting and staring at the sky outside. Light padded up to Ginger, softly murmuring, "What are we going to do?"

Ginger turned to look at Light, a pained look in her eyes, "I'm not sure." She stared out again, "Maybe we could go to the Clans. We could train there and get revenge on the she-cat that killed our mother."

Light frowned, "Are you sure? Isn't the leader of the ThunderClan army or whatever? How can we get to her? I think we should go to ShadowClan. They can help."

Ginger shook her head, "No no no, we have to go to ThunderClan. We can sabotage it from the inside!" She suddenly seemed confident and in control, and Light had to try her best not to stare at her sister. Where was she getting this confidence from?

Light shook her head, mewing, "I think I'm going to ShadowClan no matter what. I want to be at least somewhat safe."

This made Ginger perk up, and she quickly mewed, "That's it! You go to ShadowClan and I go to ThunderClan. We can work together! We can meet every once in a while and discuss our plans! Do you remember which way the Clans are?"

Light nodded, mewing, "Night always told us to go the opposite direction of the sunrise to get there from here."

"Alright then, let's go!" Ginger mewed, immediately going the way the sun was setting. Light followed close behind.

Eventually, they reached the point where they decided to split. Light and Ginger nuzzled each other for what seemed like could be one of the final times. Light breathed in the scent of her sister one last time, and it gave her some strength. Then they split.

And Light was all alone.

A/N:

There ya go! That's Chapter One!

Oh no, Nightfang is dead! To be clear, he changed his name back to Night because he had decided to completely separate himself from the Clans, and now his kits are going right back to the Clans.

If anyone can notice something symbolic about Night's death, say it in your review and I might give you a prize :P
