It's been a long time since I last updated, but I'm pretty busy, so sorry.


I turned.

"Riverkit!" I shrieked.

He struggled to stay balanced. "I'm fine! Just get-"

"No you're not!" I shouted, horrified at the sight of my brother, on the branch of a tree, a small tree, but a tree nonetheless, and about to fall off. "I'll get help, and-"

"How did he get up there anyways?" Graykit muttered, but I slapped him in the face. "Riverkit needs our help! Stop moaning and be useful for once!"

Graykit snarled at me, but just then there was a creaking sound and I jolted up. "MOM! DAD! ANYONE?"

"I'll try to climb down," Riverkit shouted from above, but before I could respond, a sickening crack split the air and he began falling, free falling towards me.


I didn't know what happened.

I rushed forward like there was no tomorrow. I remember shadows looming over me, the musty scent of wood fill my nostrils, and then weight fell upon me.

Cracking sounds filled me up and down, and there was a shrill scream as I began feeling a terrible pain in my front leg.

The cat screaming was me, screaming as something splintered like a piece of twig.

"Tigerkit!" Someone yelled, but I could barely hear anything. Brown dots swam in front of me, and vision came in and out of focus. In. Out...

"Riverkit?" I mutteres drowsily.

"No, it's me," another voice soothed, soft but worried. "Riverkit's fine, we saved him just in time. We'll get you to Eveningshadows soon. Very soon..."

I wanted to ask what happened, but my lips felt too frozen to move. "Who's... Evening... Shadows..."

"She's the medicine cat," Hillslope murmured gently. "We'll get you fixed up very soon, we promise..."

Thick jaws clamped around me, and I felt a strange relaxation as darkness swept over me.


"We come for justice," a voice boomed. The small ginger she-cat whimpered. "What- what are you doing to me?"

But the bony white cat spoke no more, and the she-cat's eyes were wide with horror as he face-planted her face in the dar, murky water, so deep that the top of her head could no longer be seen...

That was when she stopped struggling.

The tom smiled with satisfaction, and when the she-cat resurfaced again, her eyes were glowing.

White.
