Struck Down
"Tawnyleaf? Dappledrose? Swallowpaw? Are you all here?" I mewed, looking around fearfully. I heard shuffling as my three sisters tried to sit up in the cramped space. "There you are!" I mewed, relieved. Something had happened that had gotten our entire Clan stuck in this small place, though I could not remember.
I blinked, and suddenly it all came back to me. Our Clan, OceanClan, had out traveling, looking for a lost kit named Mistkit. The whole Clan would never have been out looking for one kit like that, but it was our leader's kit. Ashenstar had demanded us all to go out and look for Mistkit. We could do nothing but agree. Even the elders and other kits had to look for her.
Dappledrose, Swallowpaw, a tom named Lionfur, and I had been traveling when we came across a huge hole in the ground. Figuring Mistkit had walked down it, we called the rest of the Clan over. We all went down the hole, to the trap we were in now. The giant hole had been blocked off, and now the whole of OceanClan was trapped. All of us. My sisters and I were scared for ourselves, and for everyone else.
Let me tell you about my sisters. Tawnyleaf is the oldest out of the litter, and she is the only one with a mate. It makes sense; she is the most beautiful cat in the entire Clan. Her fur is oddly spotted black on golden fur, and she has striking green eyes. I am not jealous of my sister's beauty. Many toms had been fighting over her, and there was only one kind enough for her liking. His name was Sharkfin, a light gray tom with long claws. I liked him myself, but Tawnyleaf won him over.
Dappledrose is younger than I am, and she is nearly as pretty as Tawnyleaf. Her pelt is a light brown tabby pattern, and her eyes are the same alluring green as my older sister's. She is a very skillful fighter, and she has won many battles with other Clan cats from MistClan, IceClan, and StreamClan. There is a scar over her left eye from a cut another cat inflicted, and I suppose this is why other toms are scared to approach her. If you ask me, they are all unintelligent, for my sister is a wonderful cat.
Swallowpaw is the only living cat from my mother's second litter. I have noticed her getting closer to Tumblepaw, and I often tease her about it. Swallowpaw is just as beautiful as the rest of my siblings. She gets her pelt color from our father, and she is the only one that is cream-colored. Her eyes are blue, and they frightened my mother at first because we believed she was deaf or blind. Fortunately, StarClan looked over her, and there was nothing wrong with her.
I am Tigerfrost. A strange name, yes. I am not as pretty as my siblings are, for I have a plain dark brown tabby pelt with amber eyes. I have no mate yet, and I have not set my eyes on any of the toms in the Clans. Although, my chances of finding a mate are slim now that we are stuck in this hole.
"T-Tigerfrost?" Swallowpaw whimpered, and I felt her tail flick my shoulder. "I-I'm scared. Where are Snowstone and Rippledwater?"
Snowstone and Rippledwater are our parents. "I don't know, Swallowpaw. I don't know where anyone is."
I felt Tawnyleaf and Dappledrose sit up. "I'm not sure what happened," mewed a voice I recognized as Tawnyleaf's. "We just walked in here and some Twoleg moved that hole-cover over us."
"It has holes in it, but I can barely see through it. Are the rest of the Clan in here?" Dappledrose meowed. I sensed them all moving closer to me out of fear and uncertainty.
Suddenly another voice spoke up. "Cats of OceanClan!" it called. I recognized Ashenstar's voice and felt a wave of relaxation go through my siblings and me. Ashenstar would explain what this was.
"Listen! Every cat of OceanClan is in here. My little Mistkit is down here too. Now, everyone remain calm. I have Oakfoot and Seafern trying to figure a way out of here. Now..." she meowed. I could tell she was going to continue, but there was a sudden rumbling from above. I could tell every other cat was crouching down as I was, taken over by fear.
I finally realized what the roaring was when I felt water dripping on my pelt. "No!" I yowled, looking up with horror in my eyes. "It's high tide! The waves are coming!"
As I said this, other cats began to cry and screech in terror. Water suddenly poured down from the hole-cover above us, and it did not stop coming. It swelled around my paws, and in a few heartbeats, it covered us all entirely. Our paws peddled until we could stick our heads above the water, but even then, we could barely breathe.
"OceanClan will not die!" I heard Ashenstar cry. My ears went underwater, and I suddenly lost control of movement. I opened my blurry eyes and saw the deformed shape of the rest of my Clanmates in front of me. I could see little Swallowpaw, continuing to thrash about and finally giving in, letting herself be pulled under the salty water. As my lungs filed and my senses became blurry, I thought one thing.
OceanClan has been struck down.
O.o I am so depressing with meh stories! Oh wells. Muahahaha!!!! NOW GO LOOK AT BRACKENFUR'S QUEST!!!
