A little white she-kit stared into the horizon as the sun rose. Her white fur lifted slightly when a gust of wind came by her with her blue eyes shimmering. As an older black she-cat and a brown tabby tom approached, she turned her head away from them. ''I don't want you here,'' she hissed, not even turning.

The black-furred she-cat snorted in amusement. ''Why, Airkit, we're good friends,'' she sneered. ''Why would we ever try to hurt you? I'm just a normal apprentice, Bloompaw. And he's Timberpaw, Airkit. Don't you know us?'' Her face was twisted in a snarl and sneer, happily enjoying bullying the young kit.

''Um... you're bothering me right now,'' Airkit replied, annoyed. ''As you have for the past full moon. And, you even tried to make me eat deathberries a moon and one day ago. Don't you remember? It was a blue-skied morning, a quarter past sunrise. There was a red and yellow butterfly floating past you... we were at behind the elders' den. A small gust of wind went past you...''

''Wait, how do you remember all that?'' Bloompaw asked, and, for Airkit's surprise, the black apprentice herself was impressed. ''I remember that- vaguely. And-and, you knew it all! Better than an apprentice!'' Her face showed only one emotion: horror. ''Crowsong, Hollowstar, Airkit has something wrong?''

Airkit stood up immediatly, her fur bristling. ''Wrong?'' she hissed. ''You've got something wrong: your attitude. What makes you think you can go all around the place shouting my name, as if it meant nothing, as if I was a thing, not a living cat? Maybe you're not either, Bloompaw, because you're not the best of everyone.'' She shot an icy glare to Timberpaw. ''And you neither.'' She bared her fangs, but Crowsong had already come.

The medicine cat narrowed her amber eyes at Airkit. ''What's wrong with you?'' She glanced to Bloompaw. ''Is something wrong with her? I don't see anything wrong at all. She's not coughing, she's not vomiting, she's not in pain...'' She stared at the kit. ''Are you in pain? Bellyache? Toothache?''

''No,'' Airkit answered coldly.

''She just told me perfectly something that had happened,'' Bloompaw explained quietly. ''Every single detail. Not a single thing wrong. I remembered it vaguely, but it was like she had just experienced it today. I've never heard something like that, Crowsong, is something wrong with Airkit?'' Bloompaw's lip was quivering now, and Airkit snorted.

Crowsong remained with a blank expression. ''From what you describe me, I think I've done a similar case before, back when I was Tigerleaf's apprentice, the former medicine cat,'' she meowed. ''I remember it barely, though, as it was very strange and our first case, but it was in a loner, not a Clan cat. Airkit must be the first Clan cat with it.'' She rolled her eyes when she noticed Bloompaw and Timberpaw were quivering. ''It isn't contagious.''

''Now, Airkit,'' she continued. ''Would you tell me what were you doing a week ago, at sunrise, a few moments before you, Blizzardkit and Robinkit tried sneaking into my den? I don't need what happened before, but it must be after Hollowstar called the Clan meeting to make Fawndapple and Lionleap warriors. Do you remember?''

''Of course I do!'' Airkit concentrated as the image started forming in her mind. ''Well, I was playing with a cricket, and it jumped a gianormous leap! I was amazed, and called Blizzardkit and Robinkit, who said: ''Boring! We should go sneak out to check Crowsong's den. What if she has deathberries there?'' I was scared, but I went because I didn't want to sound like a coward. and then you found us.'' She stared at her paws in embarassment. ''That's all.''

The old medicine cat sighed. ''Look, Cricketpaw,'' she called to her apprentice, who turned and padded over to them. ''This kit has an unusually photographic memory. It's called hyperthymesia, and it can never be taken away.'' She gazed at the kit who was three times smaller than her in sadness. ''It can never go away.''

Airkit shrugged. ''Isn't it something good?'' she asked. ''I mean, it could be helpful for a lot of things... like if a cat needs to remember something, I could help him or her. It would be amazing, to help the Clan as a kit! That way I could do so many things without needing to be an apprentice.'' Her blue eyes shone. ''What if Hollowstar decides to make me an early apprentice?'' Her question made the apprentices and Crowsong to silence.

''It will finally kill you,'' Crowsong finally meowed, breaking the silence. ''It brings great exhaustion, maybe as an elder because of it, giving you a heart-attack.'' Her amber eyes shone with sadness while she stared at her paws. ''You won't live as long as your brother or sister, Airkit.'' Before Airkit could react, a jet-black shape came from the shadows.

''Then we should use it while we have time,'' it growled. Squinting her eyes, Airkit noticed it was Hollowstar, SkyClan's leader. The cats dipped their heads in greeting as Hollowstar's watching green eyes scanned the cats. ''The kit is right. She will be of great aid and help. She could spy on those kittypets, as she'll remember everything they say. Maybe we could drive away TreeClan. Those pretty kitties were never meant to be here.''

The kit bounced up and down. ''Yes!''

Hollowstar grinned maliciously. ''If she's alright with it, then we shall do as I said,'' he meowed. ''We shall be the most powerful cats of both Clans. SkyClan shall survive...'' He paused, glancing from the medicine cat to the apprentices to Airkit.

''...while TreeClan shall perish.''

===WHAT HAPPENS NEXT: CHAPTER 1===

Airkit, almost Airpaw, has been receiving special training from Crowsong on how to use her memory for good. Hollowstar has secretly been training her to spy on TreeClan and kittypets. Meanwhile, Airkit is growing with popularity within the Clan.

===AUTHOR'S NOTE===

I'm starting anew on a new story. Don't worry, I'll still be working on 'Forwards or Backwards', but I think there's more inspiration and potential in this story, because I've never seen a story like it. No, really, there's no story like this one that I've read.

This was loosely based on 'Unforgettable' [TV series]. Why doesn't anyone take more ideas from TV shows? It would give so many new ideas for authors needing ideas, instead for them to adopt stories.

===EXPLANATION: TREECLAN AND SKYCLAN===

I guess I'll dictate today's history lesson, huh? First of all, this is the canon SkyClan, but many years after Leafstar and Sharpstar ruled. TreeClan is, however, a Clan that I created, but I'll explain what is going on between TreeClan and SkyClan and how did TreeClan get to be.

In SkyClan, cats had started to grow unhappy in Waspstar's leadership (the leader before Fawnstar, the leader before Hollowstar) because they thought, without another Clan to fight with, why should they train how to fight. They refused to listen to Waspstar's excuses (to protect themselves from other dangers: foxes, badgers, etc) and planned to take over SkyClan. They got, however, discovered, and were banished.

The cats (about 9 or 10), led by Stormsky, went to Twoleg place for more cats. Eventually, they got enough and became a new Clan, choosing the name TreeClan, as they lived in a place where more trees grew than SkyClan's territory. With a new Clan able to battle, SkyClan and TreeClan made peace and accepted each other.

However, Hollowstar had learned that TreeClan was mostly kittypets or cats with kittypet blood and, as a 'Tigerstar copy', immediatly hated TreeClan. As he grew to deputy and leader, his anger grew worse. Until, what seemed like a miracle, appeared. For Airkit to spy on TreeClan meant Hollowsky could know all their secrets, and that's why he sees Airkit like an assistant, not a daughter like he's supposed to.
