Chapter Twelve:
I wake up, yawning, and look outside. There are dark clouds in the sky. Right when I step out of the nursery, rain starts to fall. I hiss in annoyance and rush back inside, sighing.
"Rain?" Codekit mews. I nod, and he sighs.
Fallkit sits up, awake. "We're going to have to do something else today. Although I was planning on gathering herbs with Shelltips today…"
"Well, unfortunately, it'll wait. I'm sure she'll understand, and she'll probably go alone." I wonder what the medicine cats are planning for him.
"Oh," Codekit seems to have remembered something. "Could we go to the elders' den and listen to another story? Maybe they'll tell a lot and keep us there until the rain stops."
"Good idea! Okay, we'll have to make a run for it. Ready?" We stand poised at the nursery's interior entrance. "Set… Go!" We run straight towards the elders' den, which is thankfully right next to the nursery. We may have startled the elders, but we bust into the den and shake our pelts.
Whisperfur hisses but then she sighs. "You kits scared this old bag of bones! I suppose it's raining, you're bored, and want a story, right?" She meows.
We nod. She purrs. "Well, do you want to continue the one about the troublesome kits, or for me to tell you about the other Clans, far away?"
We glance at each other. "Other Clans?" I tilt my head.
Whisperfur purrs again. "Far away, on the edge of a cliff, sit four flat rocks. There is a river flowing below them, and a forest to the side of them. To the other side is a hill. Beside the river, which really isn't that far down, is a camp. In the forest is a camp. On the hill is a camp. They are called StreamClan, TreeClan, and TallClan, all named after their locations. There's a hidden camp in a hole in the side of the cliff, and it's called CliffClan. But the other three Clans don't know about it.
"Well, one day, CliffClan made themselves known by going to a gathering. The other three Clans were surprised, to say the least. But why? Weren't CliffClan cats like them? Oh, no, young'uns. No. They were rabbits."
"Rabbits!" Fallkit mews.
Whisperfur nods. "Yes, rabbits! Indeed, and the cats looked very hungry all of a sudden. But before anything bad happened, the rabbits began to speak the cats' language. Yes, they told the cats that they, the rabbits, were stronger than the cats. And when the cats argued, the rabbits were not slow to fight. In the end, the rabbits won."
"What happened after that?"
"Well, the surviving cats were made slaves to get the rabbits their food, and treat the rabbits like they were better than them. None of the Clans had ancestors, so there was no help for the cats. Then the Clans merged into one, RabbitClan, and visitors started coming. RabbitClan moved to the gathering place. It trapped all of its visitors and also used them as slaves. The end."
"How do you know all of that?" Fallkit questions her.
Before she can answer, Codekit laughs. "That's the silliest thing I've ever heard! Rabbits can't beat cats. Maybe in speed, but that's about it."
"I'm sure DarkClan would understand how fast they are, since they catch rabbits sometimes." Whisperfur meows.
"Oh, do they? I didn't know that."
She nods. "We do, too, once in a while. Now, you kits go check and see if the rain stopped."
"Okay!" I stick my head outside to see that the sun is out. "The sun's out!" I meow happily. "Now we can play mossball."
Codekit purrs. "Oh," He remembers something else. "I'll be an apprentice in half a moon."
"Oh, really?" I ask, sad. "But that means I won't have a playing buddy!"
He shrugs. "Sorry. Sadly, there's nothing I can do about it, I guess. For now, let's enjoy what we have."
I nod. "Yeah!" We play mossball until nighttime.
One- Hi!
Two- So if you've noticed, some of the sentences are like, not on topic and in flow with the paragraph. I have two reasons for that: Robinkit is, well, a kit, and I'm guessing kits don't stay on track a lot. My other reason is, I suck at writing. So... Yeah.
Three- I write a lot of fillers because I suck at writing.
Four- QOTC- Should I change Shiningpaw, Stupidpaw, Uglypaw, and Awfulpaw's names?
Five- I rewrote the summary and got twice as many story views in ONE DAY! So here's a tip for you- keep working on your summary, and I'm sure people will take the time to read your story after reading a synopsis of it.
Six- I hope you enjoyed the chapter, and stay tuned for the next one!
