Moonsong's Trail
The moon on the night she was planning to leave twinkled so bright. The others were ready to head to the gathering, she begged to stay at camp and watch the newborn kits so Silverstar had to agree her intentions weren't bad and missing one gathering wouldn't be terrible for her.She looked at the kits almost regretting her decision to leave but if Starclan knew of a place were all cats could thrive she wouldn't stop herself, Briarwing, Moonsong's best friend , looked at Moonsong for she knew of the decision she made to leave the camp.
" Take Applekit on your way there she is small and surely will be killed in the upcoming battle" Briarwing cared so much for all of them but seeing little Applekit be killed by the hands of Shadowclan she couldn't bare the thought.
"Briarwing..... " Moonsong couldn't even express her gratefulness
Briarwing was struggling to talk getting choked up on her words " Please take her to the stars like Starclan told you, I trust you so much" The queen looked at her other kits " she doesn't look like the other kits anyways"
Truth be told the other kits were Silver or white but Applekit was a sweet reddish orange color
" I'll protect your kits with my life " the queen nodded and continued licking her kits and gave Applekit one last lick before setting her outside the nursery. Monsong picked up the kit and head for
the place Starclan told her to stay until dawn.
The kit started to yowl as Moonsong tried to quiet her she scented something and gave the kit a honey comb to drink.
" Riverclan! What are you doing out here " a sleak black cat snuck out of the bushes " Moonsong tell me " the black cat Darkpool looked knives at her
" Starclan told me to " Darkpool stopped moving and sat down looking straight through Moonsong
" You have a kit? "
" Yes have a problem? "
" No just Starclan sent me too "
Over time they met with two other medicine cats Strikepelt from Thunderclan and Earthstrike from Windclan. They all described the same dream and decided to travel together for safety purposes. The cats took turns carrying Applekit the small kit was very quiet and didn't eat often so they didn't run out of honey till they ran into a unfamiliar twoleg nest group.
"we're out of honey and prey " Darkpool moaned
"Way to point out the obvious " Strikepelt glared Earthstrike was holding the kit as Moonsong looked for any scent of dog or rouges.
"I don't know what we're looking for out here! " Moonsong hissed annoyed
" Calm down we'll find it " Earthstrike said through a mouthful of kit, Moonsong sighed but nodded as they traveled farther into the nests
They soon reached a dent in the land were the stars shone without stop with a destroyed camp sitting there. It took many moons but soon they made the camp home and even convinced some kittypets to join the adventurous life of a clan cat.
