A/N:

[note: super sorry for confusion of chapter mix up, those of you who happened to notice my update before...here is the real chapter of Evaporated]
Hello readers of mine. Thanks for reviewing and I may take some advice to write more like Erin Hunter. But for now it's just my writing style that I hope doesn't bore you to death. So here's Chapter 10...I guess.

~Chapter 10~

Hawk looked from Jade to the unconscious kittypet on the ground. The unconscious on had the same sort of red collar as Jade and his head bled. But because he was still breathing Hawk knew they would have to include him. First things first before they discuss the plan, Hawk wanted to know everyone's names.

"Okay before we start discussing, everyone speak your names." Hawk meowed.

Jade rolled her eyes. "I'm Jade and my unconscious friend is Felix."

"My name is shade." the shadowy cat mewed.

Hawk nodded. Seemed like if everyone listened to him like that this whole time he could be the one leading them to their freedom. And once they escape he is leaving and will forget any of this stuff happened and forget about these cats.

"I think, we should knock out the guards." Jade whispered.

Hawk shook his head. "Everyone would surely hear a fight since they won't get knocked out easiily."

"Let me continue." Jade hissed.

"Fine." Hawk muttered.

Truthfully he didn't want to work with kittypets or hear their plans which would obviously fail. Kittypets ar useless and weak, all they're good for is being bait to the enemy. Hawk listened though, as she explained. "While they are not looking we attack, you cover their mouth and nose with your front paws and makes sure to hang on. While they are distracted someone else lands the blows that will knock them out." she explained.

. . .

Hawk blinked awake as pal yellow light slanted into the cramped den. He stretched once wincing as brambles scraped his pelt, then sat down. Everyone else was still asleep and none looked like they would wake up any time soon. He licked one paw and drew it over his ears and face, trying to clean old blood off.

"Good Morning sleepy head." Jade meowed.

Hawk looked at her confused, she was sitting up now. "Sleepy head? You just woke up and I was awake already."

"Actually I had woken up at the crack of dawn and pretended to sleep to see who would wake up first." she said.

"Why?" he asked.

Jade shrugged.

Hawk said nothing more and licked his paw again and drew it over his face. Jade did not talk anymore but also began to wash her face. The other two cats, Felix and Shade, were still asleep with neither showing any sort of sign of waking up soon. Unless they too are pretending to sleep and have been up this whole time. He was really annoyed at how he would have to work with kittypets to escape. Kittypets are weak, thus just using the help and probably not helping in return.

"Go get the prisoners." a voice rumbled from outside.

"We are traeling again." another added.

He stopped cleaning his face and growled. The day before he had been dragged by his neck, awake or unconscious. His neck still stung from the bite marks from being dragged and his paws and legs still stung from being scraped as he had been roughly dragged. The others were dragged but unlike them, Hawk, was ffected the most from being th most conscious.

"Who'll get Hawk?" someone asked.

Another one laughed. "You will, we'll be getting Jade and the other two."

"But, Hawk is the most difficult." the first one growled.

Hawk smirked. He would be dragged out by a weak guard, who obviously wouldn't be a challenge to break free from. "Exactly, which is why we are making you drag him. You are new and need to learn to handle challenges." the second meowed.

"Fine." grumbled the first one.

Jade had froze and padded straight over to her still sleeping friend, she crouched in front of him protectively. It looked as if she wanted nobody to touch him, but why? Why protect him if no matter what you two are going to die? Everyone knows, or at least what Shade had told him, is that no matter how useful a prisoner may seem they usal get killed before the day is up. And that it is a miracle to stay alive for any amount of time as a prisoner.

A young pale brown tomcat padded in, followed by two shecats and another tom. Both shecats were the same shades of cream and blue, only with different colored eyes. The second tom was a dark ginger tom with orange eyes. Most of the cats were covered in scars, except for the younger pale brown tom who oddly was bare of any scars at all. He looked around and when his lime green eyes fell on Hawk he seemed to look frightened of the orange and brown tom.

"That's Hawk." one of the shecat meowed.

The young tom swallowed hard. "I don't think I could hold him off."

"Suck it up and grab him." the other shecat meowed.

The dark ginger tom shoved past the three cats and looked Jade in the eye. "You can act tough all you want little kittypet, but we'll overpower you easily." he growled.

"I won't let any of you touch Felix." Jade hissed.

"Oh yeah." the tom growled.

Jade stayed there, even though her eyes were wide with terror at what might happen next, though she also stood up taller to look more confident. Her reaction was not allowd so the tom used a strong paw and sharp claws to strike the shecat's head. Blood dripped from the side of her head as she stumbled to the side.

"Dustwind grab Hawk, Seedpelt and Heatherclaw grab the others." the tom ordered.

One of the look alike shecats, the one with navy blue eyes nodded as her name was said, Seedpelt. She swiftly went over to Shade who had woken up moments ago and grabbed his scruff before he could struggle. Seedpelt then dragged him out of the den and outside while he tried to free himself from her grip.

The other one, the one with hunter green eyes, Heatherclaw, grabbed the awake but frozen in terror, Felix and dragged him out as well. Jade clawed at the tom who merely struck her again and she fell to the ground, and as the dazed shecat lay on the ground the tom grabbed her and dragged her out. Then it was only Hawk and the young tomcat called Dustwind, who seemed to just stand there. Dustwind unsheathed his claws and crouched, ready to attack hawk at any moment.

"You're only an apprentice." Hawk laughed. "Too young and weak to hold me down."

Dustwind shook his head. "Laugh all you want, you'll just pay for it later you know." he growled back.

"Okay," Hawk shrugged.

Dustwind pounced, oddly landing on Hawk's back. Hawk gasped in surprise but did not fall he instead just reared up, scraping his head on the low ceiling brambles and fell backwards into one of the walls of the den. A muffled yowl of pain came from behind him and claws unlatched themselves from Hawk's back.

"Maby I should just escape without the others." Hawk muttered.

Behind him the pale brown tom, Dustwind, lay dazed and in pain in the brambles, with brambles stabbing at his pelt. Dustwind struggled out and clawed the delicate veins that showed on the back of Hawk's back legs. Hawk gasped in pain and collapsed, unable to use his back legs for they were stunned.

"Sweet!" Dustwind meowed gleefully.

And with that he grabbed Hawk's scruff and dragged him outside as well, getting many scratches to the face from hawk's claws. Dustwinf ignored him, he was too happy that he had discovered a new move to use.
