Chapter 1: Midnight Mission
The moonlight glistened on Silverstripe's pelt as he walked carefully through the leaves and brush as if he wasn't trying to be heard. He looked around every so often, but didn't stop walking. When he finally got to the border of Shadow Clan, he lifted his head up slightly and sniffed the air. He pulled his left front paw up to his chest to try and get higher. He did this for a little longer and sighed. He returned his paw to the ground and his head slightly down. He walked along the border to try and see as far as he could into the dark, shaded territory. He couldn't see anything but trees, dead bushes, and dried up leaves. He sighed again and turned around to return to his nice, warm, and cozy den with his mate, Nightmist. He wasn't paying enough attention, though as he heard a midnight patrol on the shadowclan border. He turned his head to the noise of the crushing leaves, eyes wide, and quickly and swiftly ran to a bush. He couldn't make out any words but he watched how they walked clumsily in a straight line. He could tell that they were tired. He waited patiently for them to pass and he slowly backed out of the bush. He ran back to camp and into his den as if nothing happened. He knew, his mission was not a success.
