I'm back! Sorry it took so long to update. Anyway onto the story! (this is 6 ½ moons after the gathering)
I padded through the forest looking back constantly, but with Fallenleaf next to me, I wasn't as nervous.
The sun shone through the leaves, cascading green on the forest floor. Fallenleaf and I were on morning patrol and we were near the twoleg place.
I saw a kittypet sitting next to a fence, his bright orange pelt gleaming like fire. The kittypet looked about 2 moons old.
As I padded by him, I noticed an orange collar, the collar was beaten up with scratches and tears all over the collar, I also noticed he had no little bell or tag like a normal kittypet, and this "kittypet" wasn't plump at all, he was more skinny and slim. The kitten was sitting a bit too close to the border than my liking and he looked casual sunning himself.
"Fallenleaf… that kittypet is…" I carried off. He must have noticed it the moment I said it because, and he started marching out of the forest toward the cat. It wasn't a long walk, I'm surprised the kitten didn't notice us at all, but then again he is young after all.
"What do you think you're doing," Fallenleaf growled once he reached the small cat. The kitten jumped up, surprised seeing two strange cats, one glaring at him.
"O-oh, i-I'm sorry I didn't realize I was so close to the border…" the kittypet meowed apologetically. His gaze shifted from Fallenleaf's glare to me, his eyes filled with shock and gave a small gasp. Fallenleaf frowned noticing it too. "Um…" I said frowning. "Well, shouldn't you be leaving," Fallenleaf growled. "O-oh sorry I just thought I recognized her." The kitten meowed before shifting away his pale blue gaze….
I gave out a small gaze and narrowed my eyes. "Fallenleaf we have to get out of here," I meowed urgently. "What why?" he asked frowning. "Now!" I growled nudging him. The kit had a longing look in his eyes, like a kit looking for his mother.
We started to walk away but then there was a call from behind us. "Wait!" the kitten called. We turned around slowly. "Your Ravenpaw right?" the kitten meowed once I was facing him. My heart skipped a beat, "Y-yes…" I mewed. "My mama Sun is looking for you, you have to get out of here! Warn your clan, she's making a plan to take all of you down!" he meowed urgently, now Fallenleaf and I started to run away but an icy voice cut us off. "Well, well well, look who we have here," growled the all too familiar voice. I whipped around. "Sunpaw," I growled. "Its Sun now, Ravenpaw," She spat. "Its Ravensong now," I spat back. I didn't realize but I had my claws unsheathed and my fur was bristling and my back was arched. "What were you doing to my son," Sun growled. I narrowed my eyes and out of the corner of my eye I saw Fallenleaf widen his eyes in realization. "Your son was too close to the border," I hissed.
"You stupid cat," I heard her growl at her son; the kitten flattened his ears and shrank back. I narrowed my eyes. "Do you even care, about him?" I ask without realizing it. "O-of course?" Sun meowed but it sounded more like a question. The small cat shrank back even further, noticing her tone. "Now you stupid cats will leave or you will die," Sun threatened. I narrowed my eyes.
"Might I remind you of what happened last time you threatened me," I smirked. Sun hissed and without warning she launched herself at me. I yowled and at the last second I slipped to the side.
Sun spat on the ground next to my paws, I rolled my eyes. Sun attacked again, aiming for behind me, I spun around and lashed out at her, she barely managed to dodge my attack but I managed to slice her cheek. Sun gave a little hiss of pain and launched herself at my back, my legs gave out under her weight and I could feel her claws digging into my back. "Now all of this will end, you will die and the clans will suffer," Sun growled but before she could lash out and give the killing blow, I felt a small force blow into her side, but it was just enough to catch her off guard and make her stumble off my back. I jumped up to see what had hit her.
It was her son.
He had ripped her off my back, and saved my life. "Blaze, you ruined my chance!" Sun growled to her son. Her son, Blaze, narrowed his eyes at her, "I won't just sit around and let you kill a good cat!" Blaze growled at her, his black paws shifting. "Fine then you die," Sun said casually and suddenly lunged at him, but I was quicker. Having regained my breath, I launched myself at Sun, knocking her over. We tumbled across the forest floor, once we stopped spinning I landed on top of her, pinning her down, claws sinking deep into her flesh. She narrowed her eyes showing no sign of pain. "Leave our territory, leave your son alone cause he's our clan mate now." I meowed making my decision. Sun widened her eyes then narrowed them. "Fine, take my son, I don't care but get prepared, because I am coming back, but this time I'll have an army and this time, you'll die." Sun growled making me shiver. I let her go and she went back, Blaze didn't even think to follow her. "You are with us now Blaze," I murmured, and we quickly headed back to camp
When we reached camp, cats swarmed us asking all sorts of questions, but were finally hushed when Rainstar shoved through the crowd.
"What happened?" She ordered. I told her the whole story of meeting Blaze and him saving me and him wanting to join the clan. The clan stayed silent for a while, but then Rainstar jumped up on the high ledge, and opened her mouth.
"In case you haven't heard, Ravensong and Fallenleaf have met a 2 moon old kitten, son of Sunpaw." Rainstar paused to look over the crowd. "This kit saved Ravensong's life and wants to join Thunderclan. My decision is to…" she meowed; the clan seemed to be holding their breath.
"Let him join." Rainstar finished and the clan erupted with yowls of disagreement. They were hushed when Rainstar flicked her tail. She looked at Blaze.
"Blaze, not being old enough to become an apprentice, you will be known as Foxkit. Ravensong will look over you and teach you the ways of the clan." Rainstar announced. No one cheered.
"Foxkit! Foxkit! Foxkit! Foxkit!" I yowled, joined in by a couple of other warriors, including Fallenleaf and his siblings.
The clan separated and Foxkit joined me. My heart swelled at least my nephew wasn't evil like his mother. Well, at least I hoped not.
Another chapter done and what do you think?
QOTD:
Do you think Foxkit will become evil later on?
Ok well, hopefully the schedule is back to normal and I'll talk to you guys (and gals) later!
