A/N: Welcome back everyone! Yes, I understand that this is a rewrite of Abandoned, and the original completely stopped. I'm extremely sorry about that. ;( I tried to continue, but I got writers block from getting on forums and my computer crashed. When that happened I lost all of my drafts and writing projects. During my prolonged writers block I forgot what the plot was to this story.

Forgive me if this version of the book isn't the same. The plot is going to have changed quite a bit, but I'm trying to follow the same trail I went on last time! At last, here you are!


Note: Allegiances will stay the way they are right now throughout the whole book.

Prologue:

A scrawny, battle-scarred black tom perched himself on the bare snowy branches of an oak tree, silver stripes glowing in the moonlight. Below him was a small cream she-cat, tail flicking back and forth.

"Scorchtalon!" She hissed, claws coming in contact with the tree as she began to climb up quickly.

"Coral…" The black tabby tom unsheathed his claws and spread his large flame-patterned wings, running to the edge of the branch and leaping off, gliding to the ground. Pain shot up his wounded leg, making him shudder. "You pathetic rogue!" He snapped, claws unsheathed.

The she-cat had played a trick and was now behind Scorchtalon. She placed her paws between his wings and pushed down. A yowl split the air. Coral grinned with satisfaction. "You deserve this. Not that I cared for my fellow rogues, but you did take innocent lives. Along with the rest of your puny clan." She growled into his ear, dragging her claws down his spine.

Scorchtalon bit back the pain and rolled over, crushing Coral under his weight. He stood up on wobbly legs and pinned her down. "You were causing trouble in and near our territory! We had to defend ourselves!" He spat, slashing at her throat.

The rogue coughed, battering at his underbelly with long legs and sharp claws. "What I was a part of is gone now! You still have a few left." She narrowed her eyes as Scorchtalon remained there despite the pain. "They aren't even here for you. They ditched you!" She swerved her head to the side and grabbed his throat with a strong forepaw, dragging him to her side.

He yowled, rolling off of her and bouncing to his paws, wings spread threateningly. He hissed at Coral and pounced at her, claws extending towards her throat. He missed, instead sinking his claws into her soft, exposed belly. He dug in and tore.

With her last bit of strength, Coral stroke out and gripped Scorchtalon's ears, pulling herself up and around onto his back. She coughed, biting into the back of his neck. Her eyes watered with effort. She strained, clawing at him. Then there was the snap of a bone.

The black tom went limp. Coral lay on top of him, breathing heavily. "You…. You fox-dung clan cat." She muttered, closing her eyes and falling asleep; though she wasn't dead.


His eyes opened to a meadow, trees here and there. A butterfly fluttered past him, which he turned to see go. There was a sparkling stream leading to a pool that a few of his fellow clanmates were gathered around.

Willowstar, the clan's' most recent leader- turned to face Scorchtalon. "My trusted deputy has joined us." She mewed, her voice like the clouds in the sky.

He lowered his head. "Willowstar."

A pure white kit with silky white wings tackled Scorchtalon, his eyes wide with joy. "Scorchy!" He purred.

The large tom purred back, smiling. "Snowkit." He licked his forehead. "The clans' only kit that lived since we actually began."

A light brown she-cat with brown splotches and black wings intruded. "It's a shame Dustkit never experienced life. Even Snowkit." She frowned.

"They get to live here, there. Happy?" Smokefur grumbled, his gray fur ruffling.

"What happened to Redtuft, Shadowclaw, and Stripefang?" Mudfang asked, Snowkit tumbling over to her.

He recalled the battle. "I told them to go and find somewhere safe. Maybe they can start the clan again." He mewed.

There were a few nods.

Scorchtalon shrugged and padded up to the pool. Willowstar sat next to him and sighed. "Petalfire had your kits." She mewed.

That caught his attention. He looked at her alarmingly. "Show me." He said.

The leader stood up and stuck a claw in the water, then her whole paw. The pool began to whirl once she did a full lap with her paw. Once she took it out, it wasn'teven wet.

The water span faster until the image of a gray she-cat with three tiny kits bundled up next to her stomach. A small light gray kit caught Scorchtalon's attention. He pointed to her image in the pool with a pitch black paw. "And…. Her?"

Willowstar and the others stayed silent. "We don't know." She muttered.

Scorchtalon was shocked. "She took on what I have!" He didn't know how he should feel. "Is this our mistake….? Or StarClan's? Or…."

Just then a light gray she cat appeared at the other side of the pool, her wings spread. "I did it." She grinned.

There was silence, promptly after the image in the pool dissipated. "What are they going to think of her? She's one of us."


What do you think? Who made the 'mistake'? Is there anything suspicious about the 'winged cats'? (If you've read the original and know more than others might not plz do not spoil. I'll be very disappointed if you do.) Plus- do you notice any plot differences already? (Yes or no Q.)

Okay, if you have read the original, there's a ton of change. Hopefully it's better? If its not... Oh well, I tried to improve and stay similar. Please don't flame! What I need right now is advice and things that will keep me going. Thanks. ;) I'll try to post COTD's (Challenge of the day) and QOTD's (Question of the day) next chapter. Bui!

(Yes, it was a short chapter. I'll make the following longer!)
