The Twin Flames

The Dying Ember Will Light The Twin Flames That Will Save The Clan…

Rusty's world turns upside-down when he and his sister, Scarlett, explore the forest for the first time. They are just ordinary house cats curious about the depth of the forest… or are they?

Hola, everyone! Here is my next Fic: The Twin Flames. I have nothing else to say so… Enjoy!

Disclaimer: I do not own Warriors.

Ember screamed, and the last precious bundle slipped out. She gazed down on her beautiful kits, her breathing getting weaker. Her friend, Snowy, was frantically dashing around, trying to think of something to help.

"They're beautiful," Ember whispered. "This one is the spitting image of his father…"

Snowy paused, noticing the decline in her friend's voice. "Ember! No, don't die! You can't leave your kits!"

Ember chuckled softly. "Sorry, old friend. My time has come. Find my kits some good Twolegs. Look after them…" The ginger she-cat's voice trailed off and her eyes started to dull.

"No! Please!" Snowy yowled. "But…" Giving up, she dipped her head. "Goodbye, old friend."

Ember nodded, barely conscious. She curled her tail around her kits lovingly for the first- and last- time, and then her eyes closed, and her breathing stopped.

Snowy buried her head into her dead friend's fur, sobbing. Then she straightened, put on a brave face, and dashed off to find help to carry the kits.

P.O.V: Scarlett.

They are strange creatures. The only fur they have is a strange patch on the top of their heads. They are so loud… and big. I don't understand. Where's my mother?

I looked up and see a white kind-looking she-cat carrying me.

"Mummy?" I squeaked curiously.

"No, little one. I am Snowy." The she-cat meowed gently. "Your mother… she isn't here anymore."

"Then who are you? Where's my mother?" I squeaked indignantly.

"I am a friend of your mother's. Well, I was. Before she…" The she-cat looked away, tears glistening in her eyes. "You look just like her… your mother."

"What happened to her?"

"She… She died."

My eyes widened in horror. No mother? W-what am I supposed to do? What will I eat?

Snowy noticed the panic in my eyes. "Don't worry, little one. I'll find an owner for you."

"One of those Nofurs?" I gazed around, trying to spot another strange creature. What an odd animal!

"Twolegs? Yes. I call them Housefolk. I can find one for you and they will look after you. They will feed you, and love you, and look after you. Good luck." Snowy set me down on some stairs.

"Huh?" I looked behind her and saw two other cats, each holding a kitten.

Snowy saw me staring. "Your brothers."

My brothers. Snowy started to turn away, when I wailed, "Please!" I gestured to one of my brothers, a flame-colored one, like me. "Leave him with me! Please!"

Snowy paused, and nodded at the cat holding the kit. Without a word, my brother was set down next to me.

"Good luck," Snowy repeated. "You too, little one."

My brother and I stared after the patrol of cats as they disappeared around a corner. I turned and looked up at the massive door before us. I started mewling. My brother joined in, and soon enough, the door swung open, and a Twoleg looked down at us. It's gaze softened, and it picked me and my brother up. Then it brought us inside.

It showed us to another Twoleg, this one had very long head-fur. After some discussion, which I couldn't understand, the Twoleg that had brought me in gestured at me and said something that I could understand. "Scarlett."

The Twoleg with the long head-fur nodded and gestured at my brother, saying another understandable word. "Rusty."

Of course! Our names! I rolled my name over my tongue. "Scarlett. My name is Scarlett." I liked it. I glanced at Rusty and saw that he was doing the same thing.

"Hey, Rusty!" I called over to my newly named brother. He looked up at me. "Looks like we might as well settle in!"

He nodded slowly, taking in all the new information. "Seems so," He replied.

I grinned. I had a home.
