Chapter 2

The dawn light shone down on Star's exhausted face. The trees in the twoleg's garden really did make for good shelter. Star stretched her aching paws, flexing her claws too. She couldn't wait to talk to Gold. Star had decided that she was leaving her home for the wild. It made sense to her. Pearl made no effort to stop her decision, she actually supported it. Around her twoleg's den, she could see many other twoleg dens. Knowing it would be hard to get out from the twoleg place, Star knew she would have to get moving early. Having no idea of it, Star had actually slept outside the whole night. She almost laughed at herself. She would have to get used to it if she wanted to be a wild cat! She couldn't wait to get moving, her muscles were trembling with excitement.

"Gold!" Star yowled, hearing a dog start barking from her yowl, and twolegs start screeching at the dog to stop, which only woke more twolegs. Star slumped against the fence, had she just ruined the day? She leapt on the fence and called quietly down below, into Gold's garden.

"Gold? I'm ready to go now."

She caught sight of Gold's head pop from her kitty-flap. The young she-cat's ears were pined to her head.

"Really?" She asked. "I was really just bringing up an idea yesterday. I was only planing on leaving here when i was six moons old.."

"Don't be a kit! C'mon!" Star laughed and hoped down on the soft grass of Gold's yard. Gold blinked and lashed her tail. She sat and started to groom herself.

"What are you doing?!" Star gasped as she paced about. "We should be on the road by now! In the woods by now!" Star was anxious, and she had no idea why. Usually Star was calm, but not now, when finally she was leaving this place! With that thought, everything sank in. She was leaving her mother, for the unknown. She was leaving safety, for the unknown. She had heard tales of the wild cats, who lived in clans and swallowed bones whole! Star shook her head, muttering to herself that those were all kit stories. Why was she scared of them?

"Ok ok, I'm coming Star. Lets get moving." Gold broke into Star's thoughts.

The two cats made their way from Gold's old home down next to the thunderpath. They passed many dens, but because of how early it was, no twolegs were around. Soon enough, they saw a break in the twoleg nests, where they could see trees and wild lands. Glancing at each other, they quickly ran forwards, past a huge brown bricked twoleg den with no clear stone on it, when claws suddenly raked Gold's shoulders. She yowled out in pain, and both of them whirled around to stare at their attacker. The huge she-cat had swamp colored fur, and vicious amber eyes. She lunged once again and Gold yowled,

"RUN!" Neither of them had any second thoughts. The huge she-cat pursued them, screeching loudly. The hard thunderpath rolled along underneath their sprinting paws, hot against their soft pawpads. They payed no attention as a dog raced out from a twoleg den, yipping in excitement and chasing the she-cat. They heard the she-cat's yowls of fear as she raced up a twoleg's tree, but they ran directly into the woods. Everything raced past them like ghosts. Both cats had lost each other. Star stood panting in a small meadow, the tall grasses going past her head and birds twittering nervously. Star and Gold must of scared every creature in the forest. She couldn't help herself from dropping into a hunting crouch as she heard a rustle from the brambles at the edge of the meadow. Creeping forward, she waited, then jumped. The creature was no mouse! It was another cat! And not Gold!

"Stay away!" Star yowled, throwing her head back to the sky. A tom about her age crawled out from the brambles.

"Why? You just came running in here like a fox was chasing you?! I was peacefully minding my own business when you stepped in." The young tom had a grey tuxedo fur pattern, and Star immediately knew that his ancestors must have been kittypets, for wild cats did not have tuxedo pelts.

She blinked in awe at the tom's bravery to speak to a stranger like that. She couldn't help herself from noticing his ragged state, his eyes bleary and grumpy, thorns stuck in his pelt. He had quite large paws, unlike Star's smaller more lithe legs and paws. His tail was long and furry, grey, and it gave him a grown cat like look.

"Who are you anyways?" She asked.

"Wolfpaw. And I should ask you the same." His green eyes dug into Star, like needles.

"Oh, my name is Star."

Wolfpaw huffed. He licked his paws. "Nice name." He grunted, then got up, looking at her. He blinked and sighed.

"Where do you come from?" She asked.

"You got to ask the first question, now i'l ask mine. Where do you come from?" Wolfpaw snapped, eyeing her with suspicion.

"Twoleg place. I left my life there for a wild cat life with my friend Gold. But we lost each other when we were running into the woods from a dog."

"How old is Gold?"

"Four moons."

"What?! She'l never survive in these woods for long! Arrow and his rogue clan Arrowclan live around here! We've got to find her, now!" Wolfpaw sprinted past her and into the woods, searching for a scent. Star dove after him, keeping a close eye on his whereabouts while sniffing occasionally. They raced along a dry ravine, that was surrounded by thick bushes. The trees opened up at the top of the ravine, making way for lots of sun.

"What's Arrowclan?" Star asked Wolfpaw.

"They are a group of rogue cats who call themselves a clan." Wolfpaw spat out the words like they were poison. "They are no clan."

"What's a clan..." Star was broken off as Gold threw herself on Wolfpaw, from the bushes at the top of the ravine.

Wolfpaw gave a muffled yowl as Gold dug her claws in her dirty and ragged pelt.

"Get off me you KITTYPET!" Wolfpaw shrieked as he threw Gold off him.

"GOLD STOP WOLFPAW IS MY FRIEND!" Star raced forwards, diving in-between her and Wolfpaw. Tail lashing, Gold snorted, straighting up and brushing dirt of her pelt. Her small head was held high, and her whiskers were stretched out and straight.

"Oh. I was only protecting you."

Of course she was only protecting me. "Gold you need to stop randomly attacking cats." Star sighed.

"Well maybe we should be asking Wolfpaw where he comes from." Gold spat.

"Fine. I'll tell you where I come from." Wolfpaw sat down, preceding to groom his ruffled fur. "I left Nightclan because I was not liked there."

"But you said that Arrowclan wasn't a clan."

"Well..."

"What's a clan?" Gold asked.

"Well, a clan is..." Wolfpaw seemed to be seachering for words. "A clan is a group of cats that are loyal to each other, but are lead by a cat who is called the leader. The leader has nine lives that are granted to them by Starclan."

"Starclan?! Really? Pearl, my mother," she quickly added as Wolfpaw glanced at her in cunfusion. "...named me after them! She told me her mother has told her tales of cats that lives in the stars, that were known as Starclan."

"Well Pearl's mother must've been a warrior cat."

"Warrior cat?" Gold said.

"A warrior is a cat who feeds and hunts for their clan." He sighed. "I don't think I'll be telling this story right now. I need some rest." He looked around and said, "I can teach you two some real hunting moves if you'd like..."

ok that's it for now! Wait for the next chapter! Thx! StarSky, out!
