"Scourge will be mad about his deputy having a family" mewed Mintfall
"It will be fine, besides he won't know" said Bone. Mintfall licked her two kits, Shadow and Bloodkit. Shadow tumbled over his sister, and Bloodkit mewled.
"Hey get off!" she hissed. She looked at her father and mother. Bone gave his mate a worried glance. Is there something he knows that I do not? Then a ginger tom went to Bone.
" Scourge needs to see you and the kits." growled the tom.
" OK Goldtooth, we'll be there" said Bone. Shadow quickly hurried out of the box, and Mintfall picked up Bloodkit and walked out. Bloodkit sniffed around and cringed at the smell of trash. Do we really have to eat this garbage?Then Bone stopped.
" Scourge we are here." meowed Bone. Bloodkit tensed at the smell of fear coming from her mother.
" So, you decided to break my laws, for a deputy, you are extremely foolish! I should punish you." sneered Scourge in a eerie high-pitched voice.
" I'm sorry, I failed you, but please I will make it up." said Bone. Shadow stared at Bloodkit with fear in his eyes, but Mintfall stared at Scourge, ready to protect her kits at all cost.
" I'll spare this once because you proved your loyalty to Bloodclan, but the kits must be trained now." growled Scourge, and he signaled with his tail for them to leave.
a day after*
"Now show me a hunting crouch!" instructed Mintfall. Shadow, after five attempts, mastered the hunting crouch.
" Perfect" mewed Mintfall, and she gave Shadow a quick lick.
"Now you Bloodkit." mewed Mintfall. Bloodkit tried to balance herself but slipped on a leaf. She looked down at ground, face full of shame.
"It will have to do." sighed Mintfall, and gave her a lick on the shoulder, but the awkward moment was interrupted by an agonized yowl.
" What was that?!" meowed Bloodkit, eyes full of alarm.
"Well lets go and see!" hissed Shadow. They raced down the alley, and to there horror, they saw a cat, fur shredded and mouth gagging out blood. It fell down dead. Bloodkit stifled the urge to wail. Then Scourge marched into the clearing, with their father Bone by his side.
"Stone was a traitor and gave secrets to our enemy Thunderclan, let this be a warning to anyone who is wanting to betray Bloodclan. When he finished, he signaled with his tail for them to leave. Bloodkit looked at her, his eyes filled with fear. After a few moons, Bloodkit and Shadow had to leave their mother's side.
" They're barely old enough, and Bloodkit cannot even hunt" growled Mintfall furiously at her mate Bone.
" But we have to! It is Scourge's orders." he answered calmly. Mintfall looked at her mate, eyes blazing with fiery.
"Well your the deputy! Do something!" hissed Mintfall, and she prowled away. Bone sighed, and stalked away. Shadow followed, but Bone noticed and ran away, leaving his kits to fend for themselves. Shadow probably took the hint, but he didn't seem to care.
"Hey sis, you want to get something to eat?" asked Shadow.
Ignoring the hurt in her heart, she nodded and followed her brother. She watched in awe as her brother swiftly killed a rat.
"Caught it!" purred Shadow. Bloodkit and Shadow hungrily finished the rat. Bloodkit looked up in the sky.
"Hey Shadow, do you know what Starclan is?" asked Bloodkit. I heard Stone whisper about it.
" I heard that some of the forest cats talk about a group of dead cats watching them." said Shadow. Dead cats?! What if they are traitors like Stone?
"Why doesn't Blood Clan care about Starclan?" meowed Bloodkit.
" Because Blood Clan doesn't need dead cats to guide them." said Shadow. Star Clan seems better than Scourge.. Bloodkit quickly curled up in her box, and went to sleep.
