Thorn padded slowly into the DarkClan camp, Moonkit walking obediently in front of him and Softkit hanging from his mouth. The rocks of the mountain and the long trek had tired him, but the tabby tom knew he couldn't rest yet. In truth, he was worried about how Muted would react; she had instructed them to take only one kit. He placed Softkit on the ground, ready to pounce if she tried to make a getaway.

Moonkit deliberately turned her back on Softkit. If the kit, already tainted by thoughts that StarClan was responsible for her parents' death, insisted upon taking her misery out on Moonkit, the gray-and-white kit would have nothing to do with her. It was bad enough that Moonkit was one moon away from her apprenticeship. If Softkit hadn't agreed so readily, maybe things would have turned out differently. She spat behind her, "Maybe you should request a name change to Cruelkit or Greedykit or Selfishkit!"

Keiogo was silently slinking back into camp. Kia and he were growing hungry, but he didn't want to attract attention from DarkClan cats as he got a bite to eat. He turned around to see Kia had stopped following and was sitting grumpily under a nearby bush. Keiogo wondered what had made his daughter stop and turned around to notice Thorn and some kits in the near distance.
"Kits, hm?" Keiogo said, heartbroken in a way as he looked at them. To think, they would grow up to be monsters...
Then strange scents hit his nose... they were not that of DarkClan, aside from Thorn's strong Dark scent. No, the two kits emitted strange, foreign smells.
"Other Clan kits..." Keiogo said with shock. That was what the entire Clan had been up to... stealing kits? It was good he had not been forced to participate, he didn't know how he'd react to being told he had to help steal kits...
Keiogo stayed where he was, watching the DarkClan cat and the two kits. He didn't really want to be noticed, but he still needed food so he would wait until they passed by... as he waited, he worried what these cats had in store for the kits. [/size] |

Tiny smiled at Keigo and Kia as he returned.Tiny put all the stolen prey on the fresh-kill pile and walked over to Keigo."I hope Muted dosen't do anything bad with the kits," he whispered to Keigo.

Keiogo was reluctant at first to speak with the DarkClan member, but the friendly tone of the tom made him lighten up.
"Why would Muted even want these kits?" The black and white tom said, his face filled with disgust. So his assumptions were true... kits from other Clans, and stolen at that...
Kia watched the kits from where she sat, narrowing her eyes as she studied them. As her father was occupied with speaking to the other tom, the she-cat slunk off cautiously to get closer to Thorn and the kits, half sheltering beneath a nearby bush to watch the two kits bicker. [/size] |

Moonkit turned to face Softkit, eyes pleading. She didn't fight back. "Is the path of darkness what you really want? Do you really wish to be so gone? My life is in your paws now. Please, make the right choice." She was on the verge of tears. She didn't want her friend to be dark, at least, not until she had the chance to feel the glories of StarClan. What do I know? Moonkit thought glumly. I've never seen StarClan before. I wonder if I'll see them soon? A pang of sorrow swept through her as she re-realized that her friend would kill her, she was sure of it. But yet, she retained a small flicker of hope that Softkit wasn't so evil, she was just lonely.

Sighing, Thorn pulled the two kits apart. "If you're going to fight," he mewed sternly, "Do it AFTER Muted decides what to do with you." He began to wash his sore paws, but his gaze never left the young cats.

Thorn raised an eyebrow at the cocky kit. As much as he took an interest in her evident hate of the Clans, he had to admit that she was getting on his nerves. "There are currently not as many here as you think. And while we do have our own ancestors somewhere, we do not grovel at their feet, as do the Clans." He growled and flicked his tail in the direction of the fresh-kill pile. "It would be wise to eat now. I don't know when your next meal will be."

Moonkit stared at Thorn, not knowing what to do. She knew she had to do something, but she wasn't quite sure what she'd do. She turned to Softkit, and knew that there was no way she'd give up on the bad-tempered kit. "They didn't, silly," She murmured to Softkit as she began to munch on a scrawny mouse. "I'll never give up on you, even if you do decide to hate StarClan. After all, what would I be if I did give up?" She stared at Softkit, the fire of faith in her eyes. "Don't give up."

"I don't know either." Tiny replied.

Following Softkit, Moonkit chuckled. "Nice catch, Softpaw," She said quietly. She was trying to keep a light mood, but it was hard in such an oppressing air. She glanced at the mouse and turned back to Softkit. "So?" She hissed almost inaudibly. "How are we gonna escape?"

Stone sat there in the middle of the clearing, she held onto Fog as though he was her own. Stone was expecting and she thought taking care of another kit should prepare her. "Are you hungry Fog." Stone made sure to use his new name in the midst of the clan. |

"Yes," Fog replied. He was hungry since he hadn't eaten since that morning. It was odd seeing all of the cats in the new place. He saw a few other kittens, but he decided to stay away from them. |

"You stupid idiot!" She yowled, before remembering that she wasn't going to be mean to her 'friend'. "We're gonna get killed anyways," She growled. "Why not go down with a fight? We;re not helpless, but we can't possibly face an entire Clan's worth of cats. You can just die then." She turned away from Softkit, a disgusted look on her gray-and-white face. "I tried, StarClan," She whispered. "I tried to help her..." She saw Stone offer Fog some food, and shyly slunk over to him. "Hi... My name's Moonkit..." She said quietly.

"I'm Fogki... I mean Fog," he said in a low tone. There was a deep sadness in his eyes. "Were you kidnapped as well?" |
