'Ryo walked in a forest full of pine trees, whispers rang in his ears. "Join Shadowclan" The whispers seemed to say… "Join" He kept walking until he heard louder voices! "JOIN!!!" His paws went faster and faster until he was running. Ryo looked back and skidded to a stop, bumping into a tree. Yellow eyes appeared in the bushes. "You know you have two, it's your destiny." The eyes meowed. "Find Shadowclan, It's for your own good. Leave that other cat, and come here… It's were you belong." The eyes started to fade. "This was a message from Starclan." Ryo looked at wear the eyes were. "Starclan…" He whispered.'

Ryo woke up, panting. His black and orange pelt glowed from the sun beating down on it and his long scratch across his flank shined red. Ryo got up, his amber eyes wide with fear. "What is Starclan?" He asked himself. A load sound hit his eardrum. "Raaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrr" It vibrated his paws, so he jumped out of the round tire of the monster he was sleeping in and decided to hunt.

Ryo walked along the two-leg dens until he saw one that had the lights turned off. There was no sleeping monster in the spot were it always slept, So Ryo agreed to himself it was safe. He padded to the red door. There was a slit at the end of it, he heard it was a 'Dog door' once but he wasn't sure. Ryo walked in, the den was rusty and old. There was a loud squeak. The sound made him close his eyes and whisper to himself. "That stupid mouse!" he said. Ryo walked toward the squeak. A mouse sounded great at the time, he was starved.

Suddenly Ryo skidded to a stop looking a tabby she-cat in the eyes. The beautiful silver she-cat had the mouse in her mouth and had dusty light purple collar on, her light yellow eyes shined. "Who are you?" she asked. "Ryo" Ryo said. "Who are you?" The she-cat dropped the mouse. "Amaya" Amaya said. "Doesn't that mean night rain?" Ryo asked.

"Ya, how did you know that?"

"I heard Two-legs once. Why are you here? And not with your"

"Two-legs? Ya, well, they left me… a long time ago. I've been stuck here ever since."

"Hey, maybe we can travel together?"

"Sure!"

"Ok great!"

Ryo and Amaya walked out of the den together, Ryo carrying two mice in his mouth and Amaya carrying one.

"Do you think Kamaria will accept you?" asked Ryo.

"Ya?" Amaya mewed.
