I know I know long time no update I'm sorry but I have writers block D:
Skyclan's Return
We have been following the river for a week now; I'm worried we made a mistake.
"We'll stop here for the night" Leafstar yowled as we came up on an abandoned two-leg nest.
"Ugh, how long are we going to have to keep walking? This is just a waste of time, we shouldn't have left" Waspwhisker whined. I did my best to ignore him, and looked around for Bluemist and Liontail. 'Where are they?' I thought annoyed, 'ah, there!'
"Flamepaw, we were looking for you" Bluemist meowed coming up to me with Liontail right behind her.
"We're going hunting want to come, little apprentice" Liontail teased; I ignored him for now.
"Sure I'll come" I meowed, focusing on Bluemist. We went into the grassy field before the two-leg place.
"Now do you know what to do?" my brother asked snickering.
"Oh I'm sure I do-rrraaahh" I jumped on him pushing him to the ground. Then sat on his head, "oh did I just pin the big bad warrior" I snickered, I looked up to see Bluemist rolling around on the ground laughing.
"Ya ya, can get off me now Flamepaw?" Liontail mumbled.
"I don't know if a little apprentice like me can" I laughed.
"PLEASE!" he wailed.
"What do you say" I urged.
"I'm sorry you're just as good as me" he cried.
"Just as good?" I hissed.
"Fine fine just as good or better than me, please get off!" he whimpered.
"Good boy" I meowed and stood up then I stroked his head like a mother does to sooth her kits. I heard a gasping sound and saw Bluemist trying to breath between her laughter.
"IT'S NOT FUNNY!" Liontail snapped.
"Oh you could have fooled me" I purred, Bluemist got to her paws and shook her pelt.
"Ok, ok before I die of laughter why don't we hunt now" she meowed; I nodded and headed off toward the two-leg place.
"I'm going to hunt alone, see you in a little bit" I called over my shoulder.
I padded through the field tasting the air, 'hmm is there anything out here!' I thought 'going back with no freshkill would only add to Liontail's teasing.' I continued padding around tasting the air. 'YES' as the scent of fresh mouse hit my nose. I followed the trail until it was in my sight, sitting there nibbling on a seed, I dropped into a hunters crouch, putting my weight on my haunches and crept forward, my tail stiff. 'One fox length, three tail lengths, two tail lengths, one tail- NOW' I jumped and collided with something, I fell back shaking my head I looked to see the mouse gone and a large gray tom standing there looking very annoyed.
"Who are you? Why are you here?" he snarled before I could say anything.
"I… I ah… I'm here with my clanmates, my name is Flamepaw" I stuttered, "Who are you?" I snarled, my tail lashing back and forth.
"My name is Wolf and this is my territory!" he snarled, fur bristling, claws unsheathed, and teeth bared. I followed in suit, I must have looked like a small kit to that large tom, "Heh what the little she-kit is going to fight me, the big bad Wolf!" he laughed.
"Grrr! I may not be as big as you but my claws and teeth are just as sharp if not sharper" I growled narrowing my eyes, he simply looked me over.
"Hmm you're not bad for such a young cat; most full grown toms don't stand up to me. I guess that's a good thing I'm not that much of a fighter" he sighed lowering his head in embarrassment.
"That's nothing to be ashamed of, most great cats don't like to fight" I meowed, it felt strange trying to comfort such a large tom. I looked up with surprised eyes.
"Are you sure?" I nodded "Well most cats around here fight for territory; if you don't fight you're already dead in their eyes and so they show no mercy" he whispered sadly, I could tell he didn't like the life he was living.
"Well in a clan you look out for each other, hunting for the old and young, fighting to protect your clan there is nothing like it." I meowed; he looked up with hopeful eyes.
"That's a life I would want I wouldn't mind fighting for other cats beside myself" he meowed looking at me hopefully.
"FLAMEPAW!" I heard Bluemist's screech, and she flung herself beside me and Liontail appeared on my other side. Wolf shrank back in terror, "We came because we smelt something it seems we were right to come" she snarled.
"No Bluemist this is my friend Wolf, he wants to join our clan" I jumped in front of my littermates.
"Why would a rogue want to do that?" Liontail growled.
"My life here is fear and suffering, here I'm as useful to other cats as foxes are to rabbits, and I want to help others I don't want to live like this forever" Wolf meowed standing tall. The answer seemed to satisfy both.
"Wolf these are my littermates Bluemist and Liontail" I meowed.
"It's a pleasure to meet you" he meowed looking at them.
"We have to bring some prey back or we will be fish food" Liontail meowed looking at his paws.
"Well lets catch all the prey we can on the way back" I meowed heading back through the grass, Liontail and Bluemist bounded ahead, but Wolf didn't move. "Well are you coming or not?" I called over my shoulder, he glanced up.
"You mean you are accepting me into your clan?" he asked hopefully.
"Well I can't do that but our leader, my mother, can and you will have a better chance if you bring back a lot of prey" I meowed, he charged after me hope flaring in his eyes. 'You will make a fine warrior' I thought as he caught up and with that we went to catch up with the gloating lion and miss funny mist.
Hope you liked it ;)
