Chapter 1: New beginnings
Hiya! This is my first fanfic so please don't hate or troll. Some nice comments and constructive criticism are fine; speak your mind! Well, basically I've created a new clan called Mountain clan. They are a clan of cats who live in the caves and niches in the mountains. They have thick fur due to the cold and windy conditions they live in and they are very friendly. The main characters in this story are Brighteyes and Specklepelt, not forgetting the bashful Eaglepaw and the exitable and hyperactive Featherpaw. Hope you enjoy this fic!
Sootpelt the Mountain clan medicine cat strode out from the vines hanging over her cave. She narrowed her blue eyes to make out two blurred figures trotting over the mountainside. Soon the figures became clear and Sootpelt realised it was Brighteyes and Specklepelt . Brighteyes was a handsome cat with a sleek, pitch-black coat, except for a white patch on his right eye and tips of his ears. He held a vole in his jaws and he wore a contented expression. Specklepelt had a beautiful coat, chocolate brown with black and dark brown speckles. Her amber eyes glittered excitedly as she walked up to the pile of fresh kill and dropped the rabbit she was carrying on top.
The pair then bounded up to Sootpelt, who had just summoned them with a nod of her head. "Tomorrow is the day you get your apprentices. Are you exited?" she said with a voice cracked with age. "Oh yes! I can't wait!" exclaimed Specklepelt. Brighteyes noticed Sootpelt's apprentice, Smalltail peering out shyly from behind the vines. She stayed there for a few moments before creeping silently to Sootpelt's side. A strong lavender smell drifted off her cream coat. Brighteyes felt his eyes water at the odour. Sootpelt turned to her apprentice, "Been grinding lavender again Smalltail?" Smalltail nodded. Sootpelt pressed her nose against Smalltail's shoulder fondly. Brighteyes glanced at the sun. "Its gettin' dark. Better get back to the den" he said turning towards a small cave opening. A bloodcurdling howl sounded in the distance. Brighteyes froze dead in his tracks. Wolves!
