Hey guys! The OFFICIAL chapter six! =D And yeah, I'm perfectly fine know.

Lurid/Dawn: Okay, I shall keep that in-mind. Also, I only know that Maplebelly has 4 kits and 1 will be named Sparrowkit, I was thinking to do birds: Hawkkit, Eaglekit, Falconkit, and Sparrowkit. But I'm open to ideas!

Robinwing: Lol, nice.

Jaysong: Don't worry, I'm doing it! Cherrypaw will be in this chappie.

This is how Sundrop would have attacked (Sunpaw at the time): Sunpaw slowly leaned over the water as her mentor, Dogeyes, watched her every move. Sunpaw hated how her amber, russet and cream pelt stuck out so much over the water. But, the minute she saw a small silver fish, she flashed out a white paw and caught it, flicking it in the air and slitting its throat. It was dead before it hit the stone.

Anywho: Onto the story!

Cloudpaw stared at the big blond cat standing in front of her. Blazepaw had suggested that they hide their fish in a small crevice etched in a stone, so that they could get them later on. Cloudpaw agreed and followed Blazepaw away from the River-stones. She wanted to see the lake!

"You'll be amazed. Honestly." Blazepaw had promised her. The two apprentices had walked half-way when three cats had jumped from a willow tree and landed in front of them. That was how she had arrived in this position.

The blond cat loomed over her, a cherry-red she-cat and a tan tabby tom that looked surprisingly like Duststorm stood behind her.

"What have we get here?" The blond spoke.

"Seems like they recently caught fish. Where are they, hm?" the tan tabby asked.

"Jesse, Lyll, calm down. They're just kits." said the cherry-red she-cat.

"They're big for kits." the blond said. Cloudpaw figured she was Jesse.

"Maybe their some of them forest cats?" Lyll, the tan tabby, said. "The ones who gave me this." he ran a paw over a torn ear.

Blazepaw fluffed up his fur and stepped in front of Cloudpaw defensively.

Lyll stepped up and sniffed at Cloudpaw. Blazepaw lashed out a paw, with his claws unsheathed. The caught Lyll over his eye, and thin trickle of blood ran over his left eye.

"Don't touch her, fish-face." Blazepaw hissed menacingly.

Lyll scowled, and unsheathed rather large hooked claws. "Look at that, we caught two love-birds."

"Blazepaw," I whispered into his ear. "don't. We're out-numbered." but she didn't have to say that. The cherry-red she-cat stepped in front of the apprentices as Jesse watched amused.

"Enough, Lyll." she hissed. "Leave them be."

"Out of the way, Ari." Lyll hissed between his teeth.

Ari had her paw firmly planted. "They didn't do anything."

"They're forest cats!" Lyll spat. "They almost killed you! How could you defend them?"

"They're kits! They didn't have anything to do with it!'' Ari said, flexing her claws that where hooked just like Lyll's.

Then Jesse stood up and padded between the two cats. "That's enough. Both of you." she said. Cloudpaw found herself admiring the blond cat's courage. Lyll backed down, but Ari stood there and faced Jesse with fire in her eyes.

Cloudpaw just noticed the resemblance of the three cats. They had similar bone structures and hooked claws, with long tails and similar coloring.

They're littermates! Cloudpaw thought.

"Jesse, I'm sick of this! This isn't even our territory, and yet we ambush cats? What kind of life is this?" Ari demanded.

"The live our mother chose for us." Jesse replied. Cloudpaw could tell she was struggling to keep calm.

"Well maybe the life our mother chose for use isn't the life I want to live." Ari spat, and turned towards Blazepaw and Cloudpaw. "Where do you kits live?"

"We-" Cloudpaw started, but she was cut off by Blazepaw.

"Why should we tell you?" he hissed.

"I rather your life then this one." Ari stated.

"Follow me." Cloudpaw said, shooting Blazepaw a stern gaze.

He sighed, but gave in. Ari looked one last time at her siblings, who both looked like they could kill.

"Maybe I'll see you again sometime, Jesse, Lyll." she then turned and looked at Jesse, who was struggling between holding back tears and holding back her rage. "Take care of him, Jesse. Make sure that wound doesn't open again. I'll see you." Ari murmured. Jesse nodded, water shining in her eyes. (A/N I know cats can't cry, but for StarClan's sake, lets use our imagination)

Ari turned back towards Blazepaw and Cloudpaw, then nodded. Cloudpaw started bounding towards River-stones to pick up their fish. After, Cloudpaw let Blazepaw lead them back to camp.

They pushed through the gorse bush and laid the fish at the fresh-kill pile. The presence of Ari had started to arouse murmuring and suspicious glances from the other cats. Soon Cinnamon rushed out of the warriors den, closely trailed by Icestream, RiverClan's medicine cat, and Cherrypaw, Icestream's apprentice.

"Thank StarClan your safe! When it passed sun-high, we started getting worried." Cinnamon exclaimed. "Are you okay?" she started sniffing her daughter's fur.

"I'm sure she's fine." Icestream mewed. But that's when a wide-eyed Cherrypaw took a step from behind Icestream, and blankly stared at Ari.

"Mother?"

ANOTHER CLIFFEE! Chapter six is finally up! Also, thanks to West for the help with my personal problems and with this chappie. (He helped me write some of it) QUESTION OF THE DAY: What would your OC have done with the three loners? And, how would your OC react to Ari joining RiverClan?

Until next time!

xoxo
