I may not be able to update next Friday; I'm going to a camp Tuesday through Thursday, and that means three chapters of other stuff to do, too… actually, I probably will be able to… whatever. On to review replies!

DaughterofZeusRules: Ooh, Camp NaNo? I thought about doing that, but I've got fanfiction to write. xP And a novel that needs more subplots. And, hey, I'm looking forward to writing the Games, who's worse? Cx

Frostbreeze of RiverClan: Haha, I'm glad you think so. x) Thanks for reviewing.

Spinechill growled. "Twolegplace," he muttered under his breath. Nightpaw rolled his eyes and kept walking, ignoring the fact that everyone else had stopped.

"We have to get through. It'll take longer to get around," he said.

Wow! An intelligent comment!

Shut up.

Featherpaw shifted from paw to paw. "But… Twolegplace? Seriously? We could get eaten!"

"I'm pretty sure it's more dangerous back there," Nightpaw pointed out. Daypaw was laughing at him. He ignored it. "We can't just run away-"

"That's right! Because you're surrounded!"

"Great job, Nightpaw," Bramblepaw snorted.

I like this she-cat. She knows tha' you're stupid.

For the last time, SHUT UP.

Nah. This's too fun.

A black cat, probably no bigger than Nightpaw, stepped into view. He held his head high, blue eyes narrowed. "You have trespassed."

"I don't smell anyone," Hypnos chirped. "You just lying, kid?"

"No!" the cat said, answering a bit too quickly. "Why would I lie about something like that?"

"I'm not sure. Why are you lying about something like that?"

The apprentices were kept in the… what was it called? Oh, yes, the Elder's Den.

He wasn't quite sure why they kept old cats around; it wasn't like they did anything…

Oh, yeah, 'tradition.'

Which was stupid.

"Okay! Okay! I'll tell you," the cat said. He stood up, grooming dirt out of his fur. "I am Spider. I… well, this is my first time being out on my own, and I wanted to bring back a few cats. To show that I can handle myself and be useful."

Hypnos wrinkled his nose. "Hold on… black fur, blue eyes, are you a-"

"No. I don't know what you're talking about. Shut up. Leave me alone," Spider said, narrowing his eyes again. Hypnos rolled his eyes.

"Whatever you say."

This kit's pretty entertainin'.

Shut up, he's annoying.

He's a lot like you.

No! No, he definitely is not like me. Shut up.

Tha's what you think.

Shut. Up.

"Is he okay?"

The inner argument was broken up by Spider, looking more than a bit confused.

"Oh, he does that sometimes," Featherpaw said.

"He's got an interesting cat in there named Daypaw!" Stormylight said, never giving up his happy tone. Spider rolled his eyes.

"All of you cats have problems," he muttered under his breath.

Something boring and uneventful probably would have happened, but just then, a large tabby burst through the group to stand before Spider. "What are you doing, out here all by yourself? Do you have a death wish?"

"I was trying to prove that I can handle myself," Spider said, glaring at his paws. "And I can! I captured them, see?"

"Looks more like they captured you," the cat snorted. Nightpaw glanced at the group. Hm, eight cats surrounding one. Yeah, the big tabby was right. This black cat was kind of an idiot.

An' there's another reason why he's like you…

SHUT UP.

Spider slipped to stand outside of the group. "There. Happy now, Jay?" he said, still looking sullenly at the ground. Jay sighed.

"Whatever. We'll have to take these cats back to the main house; your father can decide their fate there," he said.

"I knew it!" Hypnos said. "He is a-"

"Let's just go already," Spider growled, padding away.

Ah, sorry this is so short. :P I hope it was interesting, at least?
