PrincessLunar does not own warriors, Erin Hunter does!
Sorry the last chapter was so short, this one will be longer!
I yawned, once again feeling the brambles underneath my soft kitten fur, as I snuggled closer to Wildkit, who curled around me with his small tail on my nose, I fell asleep again, and Lionheart's shone with amusement as he watched the scene, adorable. He beckoned Leafstar over with his tail as the she-cat crouched beside him, her eyes shining with awe and surprise.
The pair stalked away, purring. Rumors were always flying around like hedgehogs about Shadowclan, which we are an evil, kit-hating clan, even though it's not true. We protect our Clanmates, and kits, elders and queens, do we not? We have our code, and ancestors to protect us, don't we? We are not evil, just misunderstood…
I yawed, suddenly aware of my surroundings, thick, ginger fur, wait a second, fur? Wildkit! I blinked stupidly, then realized in what kind of position we are, then hearing the amused purrs of Deerspot. ''I swear to Starclan, that is the cutest thing I ever saw!'' She meowed, her amber eyes shining like stars.
''What? Cute? That thing has the face of a monster!'' Thistlefur hissed, bringing Sootkit closer to her, before falling asleep again. I frowned, before burying my head back in Wildkit's fur, my eyes ready to leak tears. Deerspot frowned, glaring at Thistlefur, before nuzzling me and covering us with her plumy tail.
Is this all that I am? A kit, to be burdened by the clan? Has Starclan abandoned me? Leaving me with a terrible mother and father, who never cared for me?
I sighed, the questions swirling through my mind like a leaf-bare snow storm, I closed my eyes, before being engulfed in darkness.
Soon, Leaf-fall arrived, hitting Shadowclan harder than we thought. The winds, blowing in from Windclan's territory, our paws making cackling noises every step we could, our lizards were flying by the time we reached them!
I still thought about that day, when Deerspot found me supposedly cuddling with Wildkit, I stood up, trying to muster up as much dignity as I could, from being in such a cuddling position with a tom, my best friend. Whoa Starclan, This all going too fast. I pricked my ears, sitting down on the brambles, listening to Lionheart yowl patrols, but all I heard was that Vainityeye, Gingersong, Snakeheart and Waterwave were going on a border patrol to Thunderclan.
I star there, listening. I always had sharper senses than any of the other kits, which Deerspot announced proudly that I would be a warrior to be a successor, though I doubt it.
''They brought me closer…To who I really am.'' I whispered, glancing at Bluekit and Wildkit, but eyes soft as the sunlight, even though I am bullied, and I hide my feelings. They and Deerspot made me feel like I'm loved, as if I belong…..
A long moon later, the frost was still thin, as I stood proudly, with Bluekit and Wildkit, now named Bluepaw and Wildpaw, And I am Lunarpaw, Bluepaw got Snowwhite as a mentor, Wildpaw got Snakeheart, And I got…Leafstar. Why would a leader want to train a pitiful kit like me? I'm not special, and I never will be.
Boy. How wrong I was.
The first night as apprentices, I had an odd dream; it was in a huge, lush forest, dense as fog, with a huge black tom talking to me. I faintly recognized him, it was Densefoot, and he was murdered when I was born. He seemed in a trance, and the forest was suddenly covered in oozing blood. He recited these very words.
''Thistles and snakes, A kit born, with the powers of the stars in her paws, but before there is peace, crystal and blood shall try to succeed, shaking the forest with blood to its roots….''
After that, still not knowing what the words meant, I woke up, seeing sunlight course through the thick brambles and ferns. I stood up, waking up Bluepaw and Wildpaw, and glaring at Owlpaw. After we even set foot out of the apprentice den, Leafstar padded up to me and beckoned us, ''I am touring you the territory, got it?'' She asked, her head held high.
''Where are our mentors?'' Wildpaw asked, titling his head in a confused manner.
''They are in the medicine cat den, both got belly ache from eating a bad lizard.'' Leafstar mewed, before leading us out of the shrubbery thistles and brambles that was the entrance; I had to blink to adjust my eyesight to the huge surroundings, the tallest pines, and oaks, Blocking out sunlight, as if we were meant to live in darkness.
Leafstar purred lightly, seeing our amazed faces. ''I'll take you along the Riverclan border, make sure to remember the smell.'' She meowed, leading us through the dense forest, with muddy and hardened ground, with brambles hanging from rooted tree. Some might mistake this for Thunderclan territory, but that would be a fatal mistake.
As we reached the Riverclan border, I recoiled at the acidic fishy smell.''Eww!'' I spat, rubbing my nose against a fern to block out the smell, Bluepaw hissed, covering her nose with her paw, while Wildpaw stuck his nose in the muddy dirt. Leafstar purred, rolling her eyes. ''You better get used to it, someday you might meet them in battle.'' She meowed, then, she pointed her tail at two large stones. ''Those are the Lizard-Stones, they separate Riverclan and Shadowclan, also, they are a good hunting place when you are in the mood for lizard.'' She mewed innocently, before purring.
''Hey, Leafstar!'' A ignorant sounding voice came from the other side of the border, Leafstar took in a sharp breath and turned. ''What do you want, Sparkfur?'' She hissed, her eyes narrowing the slightest bit, the huge ginger tom, dotted with yellow splotches, smirked at her and went on in a lay drawl.
''What do you want?'' Leafstar snarled, her fur bristling, as she glared at the tom. Her usual warm green eyes turned cold, and the color of frost.
''Nothing, I just want to talk.'' Sparkfur mewed simply, placing one paw over another and he sat down, staring at Leafstar expectantly. ''Who are these young ones?'' He asked, his eyes resting on Bluepaw and Wildpaw, then resting on Me, Sparkfur gave a startled jump and he backed away, ''Whats wrong with her eyes?'' He yowled.
Leafstar growled,''Go away!''' She snapped, before leading the three new apprentices away, I sighed sadly, my head hanging. Wildpaw nosed my flank, but I ignored him.
What's wrong with me?
Nice, isn't it? Reviews are always welcome.
I have a question for you guys, The first one correct will be able to name the five new kits!
What, are the five main cats in the Dark forest?
Good luck! Mwhahhaha!
