Prolouge

A bright ginger tom weaved through warriors locked in the midst of battle. Jumping off of a smooth rock, he landed forepaws first on the hard earth. Turning around, he saw he was facing a small white and gold tom. An apprentice, by the looks of it. This will be easy, the older tom thought.

The ginger cat suddenly leapt at the apprentice, not giving him much time to react. He swerved to one side, and the older cat snagged his left shoulder.

Letting out a painful screech, the white and yellow tom shrugged away from his opponent's grasp and jumped on his back. Yowling, the orange tom flipped over, knocking the breath out of the smaller tom.

The ThunderClan warrior got on top of his enemy's back and dug his claws in a little more than he (and the apprentice) was comfortable with. As the bright orange tom withdrew his claws, the smaller cat twisted around and lunged forward, biting his shoulder.

Snarling, the older warrior leapt on the apprentice's back again, this time not hesitating to stretch his claws as far as the could go, and into the younger cat's shoulders. As he brought his claws out of his opponent's back slowly, the white and gold tom fell to the ground, gasping for breath.

As the ginger warrior looked up, he saw a blue-gray she-cat, her gaze locked on his as her eyes started to shimmer with tears. She leapt off of a rock and padded down to join him.

She whispered something, and her voice cracked as she buried her nose in the apprentice's fur. His breathing was very shallow, and blood was pouring out of the vigorous wounds the older warrior had given him.

Just then, a cat on the rocks yowled a retreat, and the two groups of cats backed away for each other, giving the latter hisses and dirty looks. Three other smaller cats padded up to join the grieving she-cat, giving the ThunderClan warrior funny looks.

He asked a question and the ginger she-cat snarled at him. Standing up, the older she-cat placed her tail on top of each apprentice's head, quickly introducing them to the ThunderClan warrior before placing the dead apprentice's body on her back to carry. Flanked by the three younger cats, she padded in the opposite direction of the orange tom.

Staring her way until she was out of sight, the tom wished desperately that he could follow her.


How did you like it? Feel free to drop a review! :D Sorry if the prolouge was boring or repetitive; I had to make it like that for the end of the story to make sense. You'll see. Expect another chapter sometime this week! Ciao! :)
