~Three moons later~

"Hold on!" Spottedshade yelled as she tried to help a young she-cat that had massive claw marks down her sides and a deep bite mark in the back of her neck.

"I'm sorry, thank you for helping me...but...I...I can't hold on..." The young he-cat stated as a young kit walked, barely three moons old.

"Mom? What's wrong?" The kit cried, her pelt spotted with cinnamon and dark brown fur spots on a white base. She rubbed her head against her mother's side. Her mother look at her and licked her kit's forehead.

"Calm...down...Leafkit...you'll be fine...Spottedshade with care for you," The she-cat smiled as her eyes began to dull.

"Mommy! Mommy, don't go away. Please, not like dad, please!" Leafkit cried as tears soaked the fur that covered her face.

"Spottedshade, I...I will sent you a message once I join Starclan, so please wait for me," The she-cat smiled as the life drained from her eyes. Spottedshade nodded as she felt it was a lost cause but, she was about to state that though.

Spottedshade watched till she knew the she-cat had passed on, "Come now, little one, there is nothing left that I can do." She picked the kit up and left.

There...was so much death in the moons that followed the fall of clans. Cats when crazy and many died from being attacked. Leafkit's mother was no different. There was nothing that we could do and there was no safe place. Even the humans stopped entering the forest.

~Present~

It's been six moons since Leafkit lost her mother and it seems that Leafkit doesn't remember much. It's almost like she made herself forget that she had a mother...but why? Well, I guess it's because...he had so much trouble coping at first...

"Hey, Spottedshade, is this even catnip?" Leafkit called as rain began to poor from the clouds overhead. The sun had set and the forest was pitch black, just like it always was at night. No light ever penetrated the think layer of clouds covered the night sky.

"Well, Leafpaw, let me see," Spottedshade stated as she walked out of the make shift den they were using. She looked at the pile of catnip and smiled, "That's plenty." She picked up the pile took it to the back of the den.

"You did it again, I told you, it's LeafKIT, not LeafPAW," The annoyed kit stated as she walked the herbs being stored away.

"You are eight moons old there for, you are more then old enough to be an apprentice so I am going to call you Leafpaw," Spottedshade stated as she began to clean her cinnamon and cream fur.

"So I don't have a choice?" Leafkit asked as she noticed the medicine cat's nod. "Fine. I'll use that name." Leafpaw sighed as she laid down, she was ready to get some sleep.

Thunder clashed across the sky as Leafpaw tossed and turned as she tried to fall asleep. The storm raged as trees moaned as something crashed into her and Spottedshade's den. Leafpaw lifted her head and walked out of the den, spotting a tom laying next to the den wall, he white fur plastered to his sides with small stcratchs staining some areas a deep red.

"Hey... HEY!" Leafpaw stated as she nosed the cat, trying to get him to wake. She jumped back when the tom sprang to him paws and glared at Leafpaw, causing her to raise the fur along her spine as she started to hiss.

The tom looked at Leafpaw as he readied himself for a fight, "What do you want?" He hissed as Leafpaw glared at him.

"I was wondering if you were okay. You did just crash into mine and Spottedshade's den,"Leafpaw hissed as she watched the tom. He stopped hissed and just looked at her.

"Spottedshade? The medicine cat?" The tom asked quickly with a some what argent voice.

"Yes, why?" Leafpaw watched the tom, confused by his sudden change in behavior as his attitude did a one 180.

"Please, I must take with her, my mate needs a medicine cat very badly," Tom stated quickly as his rain soaked pelt began to bristle with worry.

"Okay, come inside, I'll see if I can wake her up," Leafpaw walked back into the den and looked at Spottedshade. She sighed, not surprised to see her still fast asleep, even with the storm raging overhead. She walked over and poked the medicine cat, soaking her fur with muddied paws.

Spottedshade lifted her head and looked at Leafpaw, an annoyed look covering her face, "Yes, what is it?"

"There's a tom here an he says that his mate needs your help. He seems very worried," Leafpaw stated as she moved out of Spottedshade's way as the medicine cat sprang to her feet and walked to the front of the den.

She looked at dripping wet tom, "Yes, what is it?" Her voice was calm, as it always was.

"Hello, I'm Cloudpelt, I need your help, my mate is expecting kits but something seems to be wrong and I'm worried that something will happen to her or the kits. We're all that is left of Windclan so please, we need your help." Cloudpelt pleaded, his voice was think with fear and his eyes full of worry.

"Alright, I'll help, where is she?" Spottedshade asked as she looked at the storm that raged outside. "Leafpaw, get some herbs. I would like to bring your mate here if she isn't in a safe den." Her eyes looked at Leafpaw as the kit walked into the back of the den and grabbed the needed hears. She then looked back to the tom and smiled.

"She's not far, we have been staying in a hollow tree but with the storm, moving her might be a smart idea," Cloudpelt stated as he stood up and started to walk back into the rain. Spottedshade followed him with Leafpaw right behind her.

Cloudpelt raced through the trees, jumping over fallen limbs. He stopped before a tree with a small hole at the base that was just large enough for a cat to fit through. Cloudpelt crawled inside, twitching his tail, sighing for Spottedshade and Leafpaw to follow.

Leafpaw looked at the tree and mewed, "I'll say out here. There are herbs near here and we might need them, that okay?" Leafpaw watched Spottedshade disappear into the den and figured that it was okay so she ran off, searching the herbs that she knew where here.

Leafpaw explored at wind torn undergrowth for the needed herbs, rain pouring from the sky. She didn't notice the pair of eyes watching her with a cruel intent. Leafpaw heard a twig snap but didn't think anything of it till a cat attacked her, pinning her to the ground. She hissed and looked at the cat that had her pinned, it was a black cat with blood shot eyes and a crazed expression. Not good, crazed rouges are never alone!

Leafpaw hissed and forced herself off the ground, the rouge jumping back with a watered down snarl. Leafpaw spun around to face the cat, her soaked fur, trying to stand on end as she hunched her back and unsheathed her claws. The black cat glared at her, it's ribs showing clearly even in the low light. Leafpaw backed away slowing, this wasn't a fight she wanted to get into. She turned to run when another cat umped out of the brush behind her. Leafpaw hissed, not liking the position she was in.

One of the cats growled a somewhat clearer sound, almost like the cat was trying to talk but couldn't get the words to form. Leafpaw looked between the cats and hissed, wondering what she could do to get away without being killed or worse.

The cats growled again and lunged at Leafpaw, making her back away, out of the two cats way, realizing she wasn't going to be able to run.
