Ok, well, I have time to spare before my family's Thanksgiving meal, so I typed this out. Small chapter. Bleh. The next chapter will be better, I promise.

Anya.

Disclaimer- I 'dun own Warriors. But I do own Maplepaw!


Maplepaw turned to her left. Even more sad feline-faces clouded the dark era around her.

"Gawd, even more of you emo cats!" She yipped, pacing back and fourth.

It took her only a few minutes before she realized the cats were closing in on her. She was centered in an arena of cats.

Letting out a squeal-like scream she spun around wildly as paws came out, brushing through her fur.

"Away from me, zombie emo kitties!" She cried, leaping over the lowest point of their barrier. She felt their claws scratch at her underbelly, and ground her teeth.

She landed awkwardly. Her paws slid to the right underneath her, making her land on her side before she scrabbled to her legs again. She began sprinting, making jump-like leaps.

"What the heck?! Ice!" She cursed under her breath, staring at the black ice beneath her as she tried to run.

She looked back. Bad move. The cats were forming one, and with ever yard Maplepaw struggled to cover, the huge cat easily took one step forward and she could feel its hot breath on her shoulder.

She noticed it was whispering something, but she didn't care. She was finally gaining over the cat monster, and she grinned silently. Her victory was short-lived.

She felt nothing under her paws, and let out a scream. She was falling. She turned around; just clawing the edge of the ice to the point she could keep herself from falling down into the dark abyss.

She looked up with terrified eyes. Above her, the cat loomed over. She gasped, almost losing her balance as she tried to claw upwards.

"You! Your…"

Maplepaw woke with a start. She looked around wildly and then let out a sigh. Picking her head up and looking outside of the lonely apprentice's den. Though she herself didn't think it, she was pretty. Pure white coat, with light amber brown ears and tail. Her deep blue eyes shone with mischievousness, like always. The apprentice glanced around. ThunderClan's camp seemed so empty after it's loss of warriors.

"Oh...well then..." She paused.

"Time to bug Sinnie!" And with that, she has a cheery smile slapped across her maw as she skipped out of the den, racing over to her leader and mentor's resting place.

Maplepaw poked her head into the leader's den.
"Sinnie?"

No reply.

Next she shoved the whole front of her body into her leader's den. "Sinnie? It's your favorite apprentice!" She called again.

Nada.

She let out a frustrated sigh before padding entirely into the den. Against the rules? What rules?

"Sinnnnnnnnstttttttttarrrrrrrrr!" She looked around. Nothing.

"Damn." She muttered, crawling her way out. She shook her pelt and climbed the Highrock. She plopped down on the tippy-top and rested her chin on the longest strip. She let out a very annoyingly long sigh.

"So bored...bored...boredy bored bored...BORED!"

Maplepaw rolled over.

"Alrighty then..." She stared at the sky. Watching clouds...so relaxing...

"So troublesome..." She murmured. A song came to mind and she nodded her head a bit, humming'. She remembered her mother. Her mother used to hum it all the time. Or, for whatever time she had left on this earth.

"Stay happy." She muttered, smiling. Closing her sea-blue eyes, she let out a small sigh, deep in thought. Memories ran through her head.

'Mamma, where'd all my friends go?' Maplekit asked, looking around.

A beautiful pure-white she-cat looked at her only daughter with sad eyes. 'I'm sorry dear...They...left.' She looked away.

Maplekit rose a 'brow'. 'Why'd they go anyways?' She asked, tilting her head.

The white queen smiled lightly. 'They were scared. And so, they left.' She sighed, and lay down.

Maplekit frowned. 'But then I'll be the only apprentice...' She was really looking forward to her friend's to be with her...

"I wonder where they did go..." She muttered, opening her eyes again.

"Hmm...Bored AND lonely...Alright! Sinnie...I'm hunt' in you down." She made a goofy grin before leaping of the High Rock and racing out of camp. How much trouble could she get into in one day?

A lot.


Got to go…Mmm…Turkey…

I'll type more tonight. It's pretty boring for now, and part insane...But it will get better, I promise, when I get all the kinks out of the plot...Yes. Meh. I suck at writing. But I'm getting a tad better on this fanfiction stuff...So...R&R!

Next Time- Maplepaw finds herself in a pickle...and she has a stalker? And were's Sinstar?
