Snake led them into a clearing, where multiple cats were sunning themselves, and a few hissed at the group of clan cats. Dawnpaw set Littlekit on Willowpaw's back. "If something goes wrong, run as fast as you can." Dawnpaw whispered. Willowpaw nodded solemnly. "Whoa, chill, guys! I invited them, just for the night. They have three small kits, and I'm not totally heartless." Two cats laughed at that. Snake ignored them, continuing. "Okay, everyone, we need to introduce ourselves." A dark tortoiseshell she-cat stepped gracefully into the clearing.
"And why, oh dear leader, would we introduce ourselves to some mangy kittypet strays? They look pretty well taken care of."
Snake shot her a dirty look. "Chava, they're not kittypets. They're clan cats." A cat howled in outrage. "Why would we help some darn clan cats? They bring nothing but trouble. If you ask me, we should drive them out and give them something to remember us by." A dark ginger she cat yowled, glaring at the cats with undisguised hatred in her amber eyes. A few cats mewed in hesitant agreement, afraid they would be the cause of her anger next if they didn't. Reedkit whimpered, terrified. "Okay, everyone calm down, and shut up!" Snake screeched, looking down on the other cats. A white she-cat with bright green eyes walked up to the clan cats. "They will sleep here. I can show them to where they will be sleeping." The she-cat said. "Thank you, Sugar. You can do that." He gave the rogues one last hard look before leaping up a tree, where he curled up in the hollow. Sugar led the rest of the clan cats to where they would be sleeping, under a fallen tree that had been hollowed out. The moss on the bottom was quite stale, but everyone was too grateful to do anything. Around Dawnpaw, her clanmates sunk to the ground, falling asleep instantly. She curled herself around the kits and tried to force herself to sleep.
A large golden tom looked down on her. "Why? Leave that place at once, for rogues are not to be trusted!" He growled. Suddenly, his body stiffened, and he stood taller. "One small and dark as night, one tall and full of light. You must decide what is best for your clan, StarClan has done everything we can." Dawnpaw looked up, and everything had faded to darkness.
Yay! I'm so glad that I finally got a chapter out. Life's been busy. Anyway, who do you think is described in the prophecy?
Answer: I don't want to spoil... that, and I may or may not have any idea what the cats do.
So, a question I can answer! Who is your favorite character now?
answer: Littlekit. She's awesome. I also like Dawnpaw, and Sugar seems really sweet. (:
HUGE THANKS TO FreeEcho, Duskspiral, AND DappledleafTheBootiful for submitting OCs! Also, extra thanks to FreeEcho, who has been nothing but encouraging this entire time, and is actually the reason I make frequent updates. Also, if your OC hasn't appeared yet, they will soon, I promise. I'm also extending a request for kittypet OCs, don't ask why, it will be explained later. (;
