Graystripe's POV
Graystripe awoke to another broing day in hell. More and more cats were brought in every day, and with each new visitor, his hope of escape fell. A Twoleg came to his den, bringing water and food.
Graystripe used to try and fight of these Twolegs, but what was the point? They brought him the food he needed to survive. But he would never feel grateful towards the Twolegs. If it wasnt for them, he would still be with ThunderClan, and the Clans wouldn't have moved on. He only hoped that Firestar hadn't oppinted a new deputy.
Not like you could call what the Twolegs gave him food though. When it was first placed in Graystripe's den, he refused to eat it. Only three days of starvation drove him to eat these strange peelets that had no taste at all.
A few minutes later, a Twleg came back to Graystripe's den. Playtime already? he thought with disbare. Once a day, The Twolegs would let all the cats out in a room to 'play.'But they had a very bad idea of what 'playing' was.
Once, Graystripe decided to try and ingage in a play fight with another tom. Afterall, pushing small circular objects around wasn't very fun. (He hadnt tried this, incase some Clan cat miraculously saw him). Anyway, the Twolegs somehow saw him and beat him with a stick. He had been banned from 'play time' for two days because of it.
One of the things that surprised Graysrtipe the most was how none of the other cats seemed to mind being captives.He ahd even witnessed one cat purr as a Twoleg pawed his fur. The very thought of being touched by a Twoleg made him bristle.
Why has StarClan abandoned me? he thought over and over again, durin g the long hours he spent in his den. He had tried praying to them all the time, hoping for a miracle. But now, he had given up all hope.
He curled up again and stared out at the moon. It was almost full. There would be a Gathering soon. He closed his eyes and pictured all of the Clans Gathering somewhere in there new home. He could almost smell them. He could smell them.
He opened his eyes and almost yowled his thanks to StarClan. The one cat whom he ahd been dying to see for years had come back to him.
"Silverstream." he purred.
