3. Chapter 2

It was past sun high and Foxkit still hadn't caught any prey. He was hungry, thirsty and worse of all was lost.

He continued to walk through the forest for what felt like moons to him until trees abruptly stopped. A hard black surface separated the forest from the grass on the other side. An intoxicating scent emitted from it. Foxkit thought about going back the way he had come as he was sure that Shadowclan camp was definitely not across the strange surface but the land past it looked exciting and his curious drove him onward. He tentatively put one paw on the hard black surface. It felt rough and unnatural. He had slowly crept halfway across when all of a sudden the ground started shaking. He squeaked in surprise and ran for cover on the over side of the black surface. Just as he reached the grass a strange metallic object sped past making a low growling sound. Foxkit watched wide eyed as it continued into the distance.

"Great Starclan! What was that! It nearly crushed me!" He yelped outloud. His paw felt sore from running on the hard surface so he stooped down to give them a quick lick. The tang of blood hit his tongue and he winced.

"Intruder!" A cat yowled behind him. He jumped and stared in dismay as a patrol charged at him. He was frozen with fear. A scrawny brown tabby ran up to him with his hackles raised and claws unsheathed.

"Your trespassing on Riverclan territory!" He growled.

"Otterpaw, it's only a kit." Meowed a golden tabby she-cat cuffing the apprentice behind the ear.

"From Shadowclan judging by its horrible scent" muttered a third cat.

"What should we do with it?" The golden cat asked.

"Foxkit!?" Meowed a cat from behind the patrol. A white tom ran over the marshy land and up to the patrol

/Mistfur!?/

"Another intruder!" Yowled Otterpaw who turned to face Mistfur with his fur spiked and teeth bared.

"I'm Shadowclan's medicine cat, you frog-brain!" He spat barging past the apprentice. "What are you doing here Foxkit!" He growled at the kit.

"I...I-"

"Sorry about this. Apologise Foxkit" He grumbled giving him a cuff behind the ear.

"S-sorry" He stuttered before Mistfur grabbed him by the scruff.

"Shadowclan cats have no respect for borders" he heard one of the Riverclan cats say as they padded away.
