(Authors note: This story is going to start BEFORE Palmwind met Crystal. Hope you likey, please review! And, sorry, but I forgot to add the cats outside of the clan, so I will do that now.
Cats outside the clan
Crystal- a long haired black and white she-cat
Patch- a cream she-cat with black and brown patches of fur
And, finally, these chapters are going to be shorter than my other stories, short chappies!)
Palmwind POV
Palmwind was just on the trail of a nice juicy mouse. He pounced up, and onto the mouse. But the mouse darted away. "Darn!" He spat. "I can swear to StarClan that these prey just keep getting faster and faster!" He looked down at his paws. "Dawnstar isn't reacting very well to this whole short-on-prey thing. She'll get mad if I don't bring home lots of prey." He walked towards the kittypet place. He knew that prey was pretty good at the end of the territory. As he walked there, he smelled twoleg. He wrinkled his nose and shut his eyes. But as he did so, he was lifted into the air.
Palmwind was in trouble. He struggled to get free, but the twoleg had him in it's grasp hard. "Let me go!" He yelled. But he didn't succeed, and was put into a box.
Palmwind sighed. "I guess this is my fault." He sat down, looking glum, when he heard a scratching sound from outside the box.
"I'll get you out!" A voice said. "No cat deserves to be in this thing!" The cat managed to rip a hole in the box, and Palmwind squeezed through it.
He sniffed the air. "A kittypet saved me?" He looked at the she-cat, who was black and white.
The cat smiled. "No cat deserves that horrible fate. I hate it in those boxes." She gave Palmwind a long look in the eye. "I'm Crystal." She finally said.
"I'm Palmwind." Palmwind pulled away from her gaze. "Listen, I should get back to my clan. Thanks for saving me, Crystal." Palmwind darted away.
Crystal POV
Crystal walked away, where she met her friend, Patch, on the fence.
Patch snorted. "What was that all about?"
Crystal stared at Patch. "I didn't want to watch that cat suffer." She explained.
"That was a forest cat!" Patch said. "We were told to stay away from them! You heard about them, they are mean, and they hate us!"
"He seemed pretty nice to me." Crystal sighed. "I hope I get to see him again."
