You Don't Remember Me

Spottedstar twitched her whiskers at Tanglestar's response. "Didn't you ask her where she had come from? Did you think that having a Clan name was something you come across in a loner every day?" She was doing her best to keep to growing growl out of her voice. It was clear how she felt about this without having to start a fight over. "The point is, she was part of ShadowClan already when you took her into yours. I've said this before, and I'll say it again- she's too young to fully understand what being a part of a Clan means."

The ginger and white leader looked down to Moonkit with the same soft smile. "Don't you remember, dear? You came into our camp on Dirtfur's shoulders, laughing and playing. That was when we, ShadowClan, took you in. Don't you want to come back?" Unlike Dirtfur, Spottedstar didn't actually think there was a second option for the grey and white she-kit. She had been part of ShadowClan first, and there was no going back on something like that.

Moonkit's eyes weren't that of a kit's. They were older...wiser than any kit's had any business being. She flicked her tail and stared at Spottedstar, her gaze hard and stony. "Don't speak of me like I'm not even here, Spottedstar." She said, her voice not very kit-like any longer. Her gaze turned to Dirtfur, and she took a step or two back. "I remember. I remember those days I spent in Shadowclan. But I also remember things that didn't happen. Things that have only happened in my dreams." She said, her voice icy and cool.

[Tanglekit]

Tanglestar growled when Spottedstar mentioned Moonkit on Dirtfur's shoulders, laughing and playing. "I think that being four moons old she has a very good understanding of where she wants to be. Now she might not know what it means to be part of a clan but she understands what it means to be part of a family.", Tanglestar said curtly. She belived in her heart that Moonkit's rightful place was with Thunderclan and Spottedstar was not going to take her away with bribes and false promises of laughtert and fun. ''Moonkit if you want to leave with them we will honor your decision, but you are a part of our lives and our family and we will fight to keep you with our lives.", she smiled warmly towards the kit. Once the answer was given she didn't doubt that trouble was going to start either way it went.

Mousefur's whiskers twitched with fear and anticipation. What Tanglestar had said was true, she would fight to the death for this kit, she was her daughter, and she was not going to lose her like she did Moonshine. Most cats did not know but she had looked up to Moonshine as a kit and an apprentice and now that she was gone a hole had been left in her life. But Moonkit had come in and filled it so easily. She wasn't going to lose Moonshine to Dirtfur twice in the same lifetime. Suddenly she felt herself growling at the Shadowclan cats. "You can't have her.", she snarled wrapping herself around Moonkit. "She belongs here, no matter where her journey started she has found her way home, and she is going to stay in a home full of love and compassion.", she hissed ferally.

Oh, that's it. No more nice DirtFur. He arched his back with a hiss, and his fur started to rise. He looked at MoonKit.

"You came first! There was a reason why you were in ShadowClan territory, there was a reason!"

His gaze then met MouseFur's, and he couldn't help but snarl. But of course, he couldn't do anything to her since she was holding MoonKit. So, he made it look like he was about to spring at her, when suddenly, he spun, and went after TangleStar once more.

"Fleabag! She belongs in ShadowClan!"

He screeched, his teeth trying to clench into some sort of flesh and fur.

Moonkit snarled and dashed after the much larger tom when he launched himself at Tanglestar. With strength equal to that of Mousefur's or worse she clamped down on his back leg. Moonshine herself was channeling strength and wisdom into this she-kit. Moonkit battered at his back leg and flank with her claws.

[Maybe Dirtfur attacks Moonkit whenever she grabbed his back leg? And she fights back?]

[/blockquote]

[Deleted]

Of course, with the strength and bites that he felt on his back leg, he started to swing it around.

"Get off! I want MoonKit back!"

He hissed, while trying to go after TangleStar still. He wanted to slice TangleStar in half for trying to steal MoonKit, she belongs with him!

[/center]

[[Doing so, but he does not know yet?]]

[Deleted]

[Nope. Doesn't know yet.]

Moonkit snarled, the little she-kit lunging for the tom's throat. Her claws raked through his fur, hopefully dealing some serious damage to the tom's flesh. She hissed, trying to clamp down on his windpipe.

It's All Gonna End

At Moonkit's response, Spottedstar's eyes narrowed. How dare this little kit talk up to her like this! And besides, what did she even mean? Things in dream? It made no sense. "Moonkit," she mewed tensely, "you have to understand that-" The leader didn't get the chance to finish, for that was when Dirtfur vanished from her side, leaping out at Tanglestar. No, not again!

"Dirtfur! You get back here this instant!" she spat, her fur fluffing up in rage. The ginger and white she-cat was about to leap at the dark warrior herself in order to pin him down, but just as she was about to spring, Moonkit was suddenly in the way.

Spottedstar took a pawstep back, with amber eyes widening as she noticed Moonkit's incredible strength. It was incredible. But she was just a kit. How was it even possible? Whatever the reason, the grey kit was fighting with the strength of a warrior, and lunging in for the kill. The ShadowClan leader wasn't sure what to do. She no longer had any respect for the warrior tom, not after all this. She held back for a heartbeat, then hissed at bounded forward. The leader reached down to grab Moonkit's scruff and pull her off of Dirtfur. "That's it! All cats, put your claws away!"

[Tanglekit]

Mousefur leapt up and pulled Moonkit away from Spottedstar's grasp. "Don't.", she growled putting Moonkit behind her out of sight. She fluffed up ready to defend the little kit when she heard Spottedstar's voice, she put her claws away in response respecting the leader even though she was not hers.

Tanglestar hissed when she felt Dirtfur's claws and sighed, this was the thousandth time that Dirtfur had attacked her and she had had enough of his attitude. "Just like you stole Moonshine and Stareyes from us. You have owed us two warriors for too long and now We have finally found a replacement, and a new member of our clan that can heal us in ways no other cat can.", she hissed scratching and clawing. Her temper was just about done and she knew the desicion that Moonkit had made by attacking Dirtfur. "Moonkit has shown where her loyalties lie by protecting me. I believe that it is quite clear where she wants to live but if insist on rubbing salt in your would go ahead. She is a full kit of THUNDERCLAN, anyone who opposes or comes for her will be attacked as an intruder.", she growled looking back towards Dirtfur.

"I think that you will all agree that our pelts have been brushed together to many times and for fear that our scent might mix with yours I hereby say that all Shadowclan- Thunderclan problems will be discussed by the leaders and at Gathering, and that we have no more of this disobedience of our warriors.", she spat looking over her warriors as well and Spotttedstar's.

[Deleted]

DirtFur backed up, and looked at TangleStar.

"Fine. If you take her, and you want two warriors, then I'm going to join ThunderClan as well."

He looked at SpottedStar.

"It is true, SpottedStar. I do owe them warriors, I suppose, so I will go with them."

He looked at TangleStar, his ears swirling.

"That way, we both would be happy. I don't care where you pout me in your camp, but I will fight for ThunderClan, and be friendly to the others."

His tail lashed. He knew SpottedStar would disapprove of this.

[/center]

[Tanglekit]

Tanglestar's eyes furrowed with confusion and disappointment. "And what if I say no.?", she asked licking her lips. "What if I don't want a disobedient, Violent, Disloyal Murderer. You have betrayed your clan for Moonkit. And we don't have room for those who are to half-hearted to give full allegiance.

[Deleted]

As Spottedstar went for her scruff Moonkit lunged around, claws out to rake them across the leader's muzzle. "Back off!" she snarled, her silver eyes narrowing. She had long gouges on her pelt where Dirtfur had hurt her without realizing it. Her little tail lashed, allowing Mousefur to take her back behind her. She took to licking her pelt, allowing the older cats to bicker.

--

Riddlehawk moved in protectivly near Moonkit. His single gold eye watched Dirtfur. Treacherous thoughts filled his mind. If Tanglestar allowed this tom into her camp....things would turn to heck. All heck WOULD break loose. But if Tanglestar was smart....she'd take this tom. After all, no leader could protest the way she treated her warriors could they?

[/blockquote]

[Deleted]

"And how will I repay it? You have almost no choice. You should be wise and say yes, you need more strong warriors. All clans do, there's no question about that. You should be wise."

His tail lashed back and forth, his head moving down a bit. He ignored RiddleHawk's presence, his fur prickling with unease.

Have You Had Enough?

At Dirtfur's proposal, at first Spottedstar's eyes flared in outrage. How could he just say that? After all the ThunderClan blood he'd spilled, did the warrior really think any Clan would take him in? And besides, he was ShadowClan born. He supposedly had a mark that could never be removed.

But she paused, then. Wasn't this what she'd been looking for? A reason to get rid of Dirtfur forever? Yes. She'd hoped that with time his temper would cool, that he could find a reasonable mind inside that empty head of his. But things had only gotten worse.

The leader made up her mind. She bared her teeth in a snarl, and looked to Dirtfur with burning flames in her eyes. "Do you really think it's that easy? That you can just step from on Clan to another on a whim? I'll tell you the answer to that- No!" Her tail lashed behind her in fury. "But I'll get you halfway there. Dirtfur, I hereby banish you from ShadowClan! We don't need the trouble you toe behind you like a shadow. The blood you spilt has never been enough. You're uncontrollable and a strain on ShadowClan. You're the kind of cat we could all do without." Her gaze flashed to Tanglestar.

"Take him or leave him, I don't care. But if it so pleases you, take him and Moonkit both. ShadowClan has no room for traitors and handicaps." Were they all happy now? They had better be.

[Deleted]

[siz=1]

Moonkit's fur fluffed up. "What do you mean by handicap." The she-kit snarled, shrugging off her adoptive parents and boldly moving past Dirtfur. She got right up in Spottedstar's space, her grey eyes flashing. Her ears were pinned back, eyes trained on the ginger and white leader.
