Hi, sorry for the wait. Happy Thanksgiving yesterday! I have been thinking of what to type, and might post more than one chapter today. It seems weird, I know. I have no thoughts right now, so here is the chapter for today!


Chapter 2(Petalfire's p.o.v.)

One sunrise ago I'd visited Tigerstar, who seemed to match me, even though he was a little harsh. That night I had woke up, and Maplekit's eyes opened. Treekit had opened his, resting the rest of the day. I was relieved Moonkit hadn't opened hers yet, so she'd be easy prey.

The two older kits were sleeping, while Moonkit scrambled in my jaws. The kit's wings fluttered violently.

I padded out of the den and snow crunched under my paws as I crept over to the clearing, resting the kit down on a flat stone the apprentices would fight on for training.

I eyed a metallic patch under Moonkit's ear. The kit squirmed, then her eyes fluttered open, revealing deep-blue orbs. The kit scrambled to her paws in panic, her eyes wide.

My paw was raised, with claws unsheathed. I was about to strike the blow on M

oonkit's face. Are you kidding? Right as I was about to strike! I put my paw down and smiled convincingly. "I saw a piece of prey by you sweetie, sorry for the scare."
I hesitated, but nuzzled the small kit. She gave a squeak. "Other cats said you were trying to kill me!"

***(Moonkit's p.o.v.)

Teeth grabbed at my scruff and I flapped my wings, feeling a cold breeze ruffle my fur. I shuddered and was set down on an extremely cold surface.
Voices rushed into my ears.

"Open your eyes, quick!"

"Your mother will kill you!"

"I need to see you live longer, open those wondrous eyes!"

I sat still, then forced my eyelids to open. I saw a gray tabby cat with her teeth bared, a paw raised with gray claws unsheathed. I jumped to her paws and puffed up. No, no!

The cat put down her paw and smiled. "I saw a piece of prey by you sweetie, sorry for the scare." She nuzzled the kit with a cold, wet nose.

I squeaked and jerked back. Liar! "Other cats said you were trying to kill me!" I managed to hiss.

The she-cat gave a confused gaze to me, not convincing me that she meant it. "You must have imagined them, Moonkit."

"Why did you try to kill me?" I scanned my mother, seeing something unfamiliar. No wings? Poor mum! Wait, she tried to kill me! I'm a mouse-brain!

"So I can receive a gift!"

"Wouldn't you rather me be alive, or dead? I thought I was a gift!" I glared at mum. "I am not loved! At least the rest of the clan will love me!" I realized how tired I was, and lay with my paws tucked in.

"You are no gift, no one else cares for you! Are you a flea-brain? Wait, you're only just fox-dung and crow-food that mated! That is better than a cat with wings like you!" Petalfire ran off, muttering inaudibly.

I let a tear run down my face, more following. I mourned, confused. I squoze my eyes shut miserably.

**(Petalfire's p.o.v.)

A path that could fit a monster was level, and trees lined the path, slightly leaning. The sun had rays dappling the ground, coming in lines from the gaps in the tree's leaves. A river flowed straight through the path, a fish quickly swimming along through it.

A dark brown tabby with amber eyes glared at Moonkit, baring his teeth irritably. "Ugh. Petalfire, you failed; now I must finish the job, as always!"

I came running towards him, panting. "I can do it. Let me."

"You would have if you were truly a warrior. But you are too afraid to shed blood of others. Scram, coward." He looked back at the winged kit and licked his lips. "I suddenly feel hungry, for bird. Since there's none around here..." He turned and looked at the treetops, then back to the silver-patched kit. "You'll be my meal." He unsheathed his claws and laughed murderously.

I launched myself in front of the kit, hissing at Tigerstar. "I can kill like a true warrior! We are similar, Tigerstar. Please!" I narrowed my eyes.

"Fine. Show me what you can do, and do it well! I can bargain, the kit for your reward... And, be a true warrior, unlike you silly clan cats. I can teach you so much more."

I turned around and laughed. "Just because you're my kit doesn't mean I love you!"

Moonkit's blood was cold. She attempted to run away, but found herself frozen in place. Then she found her limbs again, but it was too late.

I raked my claws along my kit's face, right above her eye. My claw nagged onto the bottom of Moonkit's ear.

The kit fell over, breathless. Blood streamed down her face and she panted, raising to her paws lazily.

I stomped onto the kit, pinning her and whispering into her ear. "And you thought you were my gift!"

My claws dug into Moonkit's belly, and she yowled in pain. She was innocent, and was being killed. She flapped her wings and kicked with all of her might, claws unsheathed. The white kit with silver patches had one of her hind claws stab into my face, right between my eyes.

I gave a small yelp, then spread Moonkit's legs apart. I took both of my pairs of fore-claws, and slid them straight down Moonkit's belly. I bit the kits neck as hard as possible, and her body fell limp.

I tore her throat apart, blood pooled around the kits dead body. I looked at Tigerstar and saw a pleased look in his eyes.

He smirked, his ears pricking. "Good for starters, Petalfire. Now come with me." He padded into the grove of trees, which slowing began to twist and gnarl, turning gray and growing fungus. The grass disappeared and mist covered the ground. The sky was blocked out and black. "You'd be a mouse-brain not to recognize that this is The Dark Forest." Tigerstar growled.

I sat confidently, not scared of anything now that I was on Tigerstar's good side. "Do I get my reward, now?"

The evil tom squinted for a moment, then jumped onto a rock. "Petalfire, you will now know something only we know. Not even StarClan knows of this. You just killed a kit that would grow, changing how cats thought about others- in a good way." He put on a grin. "Dark Forest cats will be proud of you."

I sat triumphantly, lifting my chin. "I am honored." Blood stained my teeth, and it was all I could taste. It was somewhat pleasing to have the blood of my cursed kit in my mouth. It was perfect for my pallet.

Tigerstar licked a paw lazily. "I welcome you to our clan. You serve for us now, just like that." He gestured in the direction I had killed Moonkit. "Every night you'll come and train with us, and more." He hissed, walking into the shadows.

I smiled, thinking to myself. I know now, I killed one who would have- improved the clans life...


What? Do you believe Moonkit is dead? Why did Petalfire kill her own daughter? Tigerstar is in the book, for sure bro! Anyway, how do you think Moonkit would change the ways of the clan? What is going to happen? This isn't really a cliffhanger, and I am aware of that.

AOTD: My favorite food is Basically Thanksgiving/Christmas food- Mashed potatoes, Pork roast, Ham, Turkey, Corn, Rolls. I KNOW my cat loves pork and gravy. He will go mouse-brained if he don't get some pork!

QOTD: If you were a cat, what superpower would you have if you could get one?
