I don't own warriors! guess I kinda rushed things a bit to say this :P Ohyes, and I will randomly select character's POV. It's not even. Hehe

Here's chapter 1…

It was so dark and confusing. Everywhere she ran, faceless cats appeared, all wailing in agony. The long-haired girl couldn't make out what they were saying. Of course. They were cats.

But, still, it was a dream. Shouldn't she be able to understand these cats? And help them, somehow.

Ivy…..

Huh? Someone was calling her name. Could it be the cats?

Ivy… Ivy!

Now that Ivy thought about it, the voice sounded familiar.

"Ivy! Wake up! How long are you going to sleep for?"

"S-sis!" Ivy jolted awake. Her breathing slowed down as she took in her surroundings. It was all just a dream. Just a dream. Those cats couldn't possibly hurt her.

Her sister's face slowly came into focus. Ivy's eyes slowly adjusted to the harsh light after her panic in the dream-forest.

"Good morning, Hazel," she murmured, still slightly sleepy.

"Good morning? It's 12pm on the dot!" even though Hazel tried to sound harsh, Ivy noticed a trace of laughter in her voice.

Ivy sat up straight, suddenly wide awake. "Oh no! What about school?"

Hazel gave her a strange look. "It's Sunday."

Oh. Ivy's cheeks turned red with embarrassment.

"Hazel!" a voice came from downstairs. "Is Ivy awake yet?"

Ivy would recognize that voice anywhere.

"Coming, bro!" she yelled. Flinging off her blanket, Ivy raced downstairs.

Her brother looked at her with amusement in his eyes as she appeared at the top of the stairs. "Hi, Ivy. Sleep well?"

"Shut up, Lionel," she muttered, and sat down on one of the dining chairs to eat her breakfast-no, wait, her lunch.

"It was a yummy breakfast today," Lionel commented as Ivy ate her lunch hungrily. "Pancakes with maple syrup."

Ivy ignored him. "Hazel, where's Mum and Dad?"

Hazel looked up from the magazine she was reading. "They're out. But Daisy and Jason stayed behind to look after you."

"Huh. I don't need looking after. I'm a full thirteen years of age!"

"Well, you're still the youngest." The new voice came from the garden. Ivy turned to see Jason walk into the living room, closely followed by her oldest sister, Daisy. I wonder how Mom and Dad manage with five kids sometimes, she reflected.

"I'm bored," yawned Daisy. "Why don't we go into the garden and explore?" Ivy's family had only recently moved into this new house. It had a humongous garden, large enough to not be able to explore it in a day.

"Sis. We explored it yesterday. Why can't we do something else?" grumbled Lionel.

"I want to explore it deeper," replied Daisy, and strode out the back door arrogantly.

"Just cuz' you're the oldest doesn't mean we have to follow you all the time, Daisy!" complained Lionel as he followed his sister out the door. Jason and Hazel followed silently, leaving Ivy to finish her lunch.

"I always get left behind," she grumbled. Instead of swallowing the last of her lunch, she stood up and followed her siblings out to the garden, not caring that she was still in her dressing gown.

Outside, she heard the voices of her siblings as they talked.

"Hey, look, this clump of grass is tougher than the other parts."

Ivy raced to join them.

"Let's look in it."

A rustling noise, then: "What's this?"

Ivy approached in time to see Jason holding up a small black box with a puzzled look on his face. Ivy and her other siblings crowded around him, gazing at it quizzically.

"Look, there's a label on that thing," Lionel pointed out, his irritation at being bossed around now completely gone. "Read it, Jason."

Jason read it. "'The thumb drive inside contains an important document. Learn the secrets to what is living inside your computer.' "

"'Living inside your computer?' Complete and utter rubbish," muttered Hazel indignantly. "Someone's obviously trying to pull a prank on us!"

"Maybe, maybe not," murmured Ivy. All of her siblings turned to look at her.

"Oh, you're so naïve, Ivy! You don't know how to tell a prank apart from a real thing, do you?" taunted Lionel.

Unexpectedly, Daisy rose to defend her. "And why should it be a prank? Why don't we plug this thumb drive into our computer? What's the worst it could do?"

"Oh, maybe infest our computer with viruses and make it unusable?" Hazel glared at Daisy. "You're seventeen! How could you not know these things?"

Ivy thought that her siblings were about to fight until Jason rose up his hands in a placating gesture. "Woah, guys. Cool it. Why don't we do what Daisy says, but plug it into our old computer, which is basically infested with bugs anyway?"

At this, both Lionel and Hazel nodded agreement, but still looked like they wanted to slice Daisy open with a kitchen knife. Jason, ignoring both of them, opened the box and took out an old, rusty thing, almost unrecognizable as a thumb drive.

"Well, let's get this thing started," said Ivy cheerfully.
