I am Back
Nico's P.O.V.
I start padding out if camp and quickly realise my sweet little Ali isn't next to me. I look back to see her being dragged across the camp. I run to her attacker but before I can, Some cat knocks me out.
Ali's P.O.V. The next day
I wake up in a cave. I see Nico's shape in the corner, sprawled on a rock. Everything that happened yesterday crashed down on me. I pad over to the corner where Nico is and curl up next to him, looking around. I see a pool of water and a lot of rock. I shiver and feel a tail curve around me and a grunt of pain. I look over to see Nico opening his eyes. He looks at me ans slides off the rock. I press my body against him and he purrs. "What happened?" I ask him. "Well, when I saw some cat pulling you away, I tried to attack him, but some cat knocked me out." He meows gently, licking my fur clean. "Why would you do that?" I ask. "Because I love you." He says and nuzzles me. "I love you too!" I say and lick his cheek. I hear noise at the entrance and shrink back. We are in the farthest corner of the den, half hidden behind a boulder. Nico shrinks beside me, giving me comforting licks on the head. "Where are you?" Silverpaw asks and sees my tail. "Honestly Goldenpaw, COME ON!" She says and Goldenpaw slips in nervously. I get as close to Nico as I can and he pulls his tail around me. "Its okay." Silverpaw says and I peer out from behind the bolder and see my birth sisters looking at me. "What's your new name?" Silverpaw asks and I look at her. "Ali." I say and my sisters nod.
My sisters look at me with wonder. "Wow. Cool mark." They say, looking at the heart mark on my flank. "Yeah." I mutter. "We missed you." Goldenpaw says and I look at them. "I figured you two spent so much time together that you wouldn't even notice that I was gone. That's why I always spent time with Applepaw and Mintpaw." I tell my sisters and they look kinda guilty. "Sorry." They say and I see guilt cloud their eyes. I feel a tail on my back and see Nico sitting behind the rock. Oh yeah. Haha. "Silverpaw and Goldenpaw, this is Nico." I say and he pads next to me. "Hi." Goldenpaw says. "How'd you meet him?" Silverpaw asks, her eyes full curiosity. "Well, after Pebblefoot threw me into the forest, Nico was near by and found me. He took me to his home and that became my home." I say and my sisters nod in unison. "Cool. Who was that golden furred tom you were kinda protecting earlier?" Goldenpaw asks and I look at her. "My adopted brother Lion." I say. "Adopted?" They say in unison and I look at them. "Yeah. My brother's Mate took care of her, along with her five kits." Nico says and I look up at him. "He talks!" I say and fall to the ground giggling. My sisters start giggling while Nico looks at me sweetly. When I stop laughing, I get up and poke Nico with a claw. He looks down at me angrily. I shrink back and he laughs. I pad back next him and look up at him. He lowers his head and nuzzles me. "I was joking." He says and I nod, pressing against him.
"Awwwwwwwww!" Goldenpaw and Silverpaw purr and I look at them. "Silverpaw! You and your sister have hunting to do!" A voice says from outside and they pad out. We go back behind the boulder. Nico lays against the wall and I lay next to him, Snuggling into his fur. He licks the top of my head soothing me and I purr softly. I hear a yowel and run to the entrance of the den. I stick my head out and see Sierra, Lion, Ivy, Dove, Fire, Moon, and Fox. "Where are they." Sierra hisses and I see that she is on top Silverstar. I pad out of the den with Nico right next to me. "We are taking them home." She growls and we pad out of the camp.
When we get back to our camp, I see the twelve other cats are living with us. Yay! More she cats! I see Ivy and Dove moved our nests into a hidden den. "Thanks. Sisters." I say and they perk up. I lay down in my nest. I feel Nico curl around me and I lick his cheek. We cuddle together and are soon asleep.
