Chapter Eleven:

We're continuing our mossball game when Mosspaw, Awfulpaw, Uglypaw, and Stupidpaw come to join us. "We heard about your brother." Mosspaw meows.

I sigh. "I guess the whole Clan has. And pretty soon, the whole gathering."

"Oh, that's right; it's in a quarter moon, isn't it?"

I nod. "It's also when Fallkit and I will be four moons old."

"Congratulations!" They meow in unison. We all purr.

"Wow, that was funny!" I mew. "Well thank you guys for coming over here. Wanna play mossball with us?"

Awfulpaw and Uglypaw shake their heads. "We have to do a sunset patrol later."

"Can't you play till then?" I tilt my head.

"No," Uglypaw sighs. "It'll make us lose concentration. No offense," He quickly adds, "I'd love to. Well… You'll understand soon enough. Okay, come on, Awfulpaw."

They go to the apprentices' den.

The rest of us- Codekit, Mosspaw, Stupidpaw, and I- continue the game of mossball.

"Well, I guess we should head off to bed." Mosspaw meows.

"Are you two on dawn patrol?" I ask. She shrugs.

"Goodnight!" Codekit and I mew when they walk to the apprentices' den. They flick their tails in reply.

I turn to Codekit. "Should we go to sleep, too?"

"We can if you're tired." He meows. I nod.

We go in the nursery, where the queens are purring at each other. "Oh, hello, Robinkit and Codekit." Cloudleap meows when she sees us enter. I nod. "Hi. It's nighttime."

"Oh!" They exclaim and quiet down. Cloudleap dismissively flicks her tail. "We were just joking."

I curl up next to her and quickly fall asleep.

My dreams that night are about catching a robin. It clutches a red leaf in its beak. Then I turn to see three pairs of eyes staring into mine.

I run away from the eyes, but they follow me. The robin lets go of the leaf, and I turn to fight the pairs of eyes. They grow bigger and surround me.

I yowl, scared, and curl into a ball. I feel my pelt being ripped and my body being destroyed.

Then I rise and see the eyes eating the remains of my body. My spirit rushes down upon them and they look at me, fear in their eyes. I roar and chase them to the ends of eternity.

The eyes disappear and I look around, in a strange dark place.

A voice calls my name and laughs. I keep running.

But no matter how much I run, there is endless darkness.


Well I hope you guys liked it.

QOTC- Why is Robinkit having this strange dream?

Also just another reminder, it's set in the future so the Clans will have adopted some twoleg words and customs. It just makes life easier for them all in all.

I can't concentrate right now. Mah! Headache...

Stay tuned for the next chapter!
