Prologue
Morning dew filled the Kitten's nostrils. Her deep blue eyes darted from bush to bush, looking for some sort of prey. Her soft paws moved silently through the
green grass. The kitten stopped by a stream and took a few gulps of fresh, clean water. When she pulled away, she saw her reflection. Her fur shimmered a pale gold, eventually turning to a silvery white at her ear tips, paws and tip of her tail. The Kitten stood up and walked away, back to the cover of the forest to look for a place to sleep. She found a bush and curled up under it, longing for the warmth of her mother. Just as she was almost asleep, she smelled something. Mouse! The scent was strong so it was easy to follow. She came to the end of the trail. In front of her was a wall of woven ferns with only one hole cutting through. She let her hunger lead her towards a single mouse in the middle of a clearing within the walls. She grabbed the little mouse and wolfed it down. When she finished, the kitten yawned and curled up right there. Only one cat was awake and had heard the kitten, she peeked her white head out of a den on the edge of the clearing and saw her sleeping next to the skeleton of a mouse. Cautiously she walked over to her, giving her a quick sniff for any enemies. But there was only one smell on this young cat. Blood.
