The sun was almost completely settled, casting its last strings of light upon the earth, bringing multicoloured hues to the sky and landscape. Cats were coming back from their patrols and hunting session, bringing little food but still something to eat. The guards were already preparing to set watch, though one of them was missing. Sylvester was still out there, not heard from the other cats, only that he had left early this morning in search of a good meal. Though it didn’t take long for the tom to resurface from the depths of the brush. He ran through the meadow, leading a young she-cat back to camp as he went. Once arriving to their

Moonlight washed the grass, giving it a milky glow. Everything was silent, a single cat sat in the silver meadow, his brown pelt was dappled with strange bold markings. A swish echoed behind him, his large defined muscles tensed and his icy blue eyes shot open.
"Distantstar," came a voice, it was smooth and sweet but held a tone of authority. "My love " the voice purred.
"Moonstar?" Distantstar breathed, his eyes filled with a sudden affection, "It's been too long I miss you so much."
"I miss you too, but Starclan made their decision and I must abide with it however much it pains me " The

’Eh? And I thought I was acting weird.’ Holding back a small spurt of laughter at her patched companion’s less-than-informative remark, Ameena bent her head, licking her chest as she spoke again. “Fine, cover up all the compliments the she-cats have given you,” she mused calmly, sitting up again and turning her questioning gaze on the tom. He still seemed preoccupied, which made her tilt her head a small amount, silently asking the question that was threatening to spill from her parted jaws- What’s on your mind? Deciding it was best to keep her mouth shut, the tortoiseshell mentally shook herself, twitching

He lay in bed one night, accompanied by his wife of eighteen years whom he still found just as beautiful as the day he met her. He was thinking, hard and long about his life and all the things he'd done before tonight. All the people he had loved or lost and the children he could never have. It sounde

The Why of It: ManipulationI've had a few people (not a lot, no) tell me that it's not very believable for Taka/Scar to have been able to be manipulated by anyone, let alone the hyenas. I suppose it's logical to think that, especially in light of how the interactions between Scar and the trio of hyenas went in the movie. However, I based this idea on the dialogue and interplay between Taka and those same hyenas found in "Tale of Two Brothers". There, Taka is not yet Scar, and he is not yet homicidal nor obsessed with becoming King in short, his TLK-nature is not fully developed. So let's look at the places in the story where my idea that Taka was manipulated byThe Why of It: Manipulation2 years ago in Settings More Like This

The rock beside which he sits does not stir, but faces the northern skies in its scope of tranquility.
"You think it would give you hope to know, but it is for the best that I not tell you." It is a head taller than the white tom, and the voice which is associated with it, but emitted from an unknown source, would have seemed terribly familiar to any of Cenek's old comrades.
The Yellow-Shadow does not argue, but continues to look forward.

Alliance cats and Rebellion cats alike dropped into huddles of teeth, claws, and spattering blood everywhere.

Her white paws gently padded along a worn path she'd taken many times before around this place. Why do I come here, anyway? She wonders, but never thinks too much into it. For some unexplicable reason Sojir enjoyed being around the base of the volcano. The smells were putred at first, but she soon came to be in neutral agreement with them. Fire-Tribe smells weren't so bad, she came to decide one day. More than anything she came here to see two certain some cats, and see if either of the two would ever come home again. Sojir fretted

The smell of burning surrounded the young cat. Tracing his paws carefully, with his tail layed flat and his ears pricked, Warrun kept to the shadows of giant boulders. After he had lost sight of Sylvester, the tom took a breath. No going back now...I've already left my scent. He closed his eyes, trying to remember the scents from his kithood....the warmness of the cats around...how their fur always smelled singed (in a good way)...and opened his eyes. He peered around the rock and slipped to another, stealthily moving across the surface. He made little noise, except for a few

[Orange-Light/ Bonny/ Fire-Tribe Territory] Bonny padded over to her herb storage to check if she needed to restock supplies. As she entered, the aroma of dry herbs swirled all around her. She sniffed through the herbs, as a dry, brittle leaf scratched her nose open. Ow! Well, I guess that means I need to go and get some more. She giggled at herself slightly, mainly for having to tend to her own cut as if she was her own patient. After she cleaned out the herb supplies, and tended to her flesh wound, she gathered the bundles of shriveled up roots and leaves, and headed out of the den and into the clearing. While she padded out the opening, a

They were fighting, he knew, to punish the Rebellion for all of the wrong they had done. At first it could have been easily forgiven. Even he had experienced doubts about the need for war at all. But now they were in it so thick that he felt a need to make the others suffer. To hurt them, maim them, lash the whip back and forth a thousand times. At times, he almost forgot why it had all started. His paws felt light, so filled with excitement that bounded freely.

She could feel her long limbs shaking slightly underneath her, and she cursed softly at herself for being afraid. As the orange water gazed around at her tribemates....and her other members of the raid, she could also sense fear in their hearts.

There was a reason Howlpaw hated the night, hated the cold wind that blew on the volcano, hated leaf-bare in general. Even though the first time he saw snow should have been a joyous event, it only brought him dread for the freezing nights to come. But it wasn't just the cold that bothered him, as if it wasn't bad enough. Nor was it just the way others wool wrap their tails around themselves to keep warm, while he was left with a useless stub. No, it was the memories that ruined this season for him, the memories of the nursery at night.

He whispered these words in a frail moan, his pale eyes staring blankly into the void of an unseen presence.
I hesitated, not knowing to react out of grief, happiness, or…or just plain shock. I blinked once, then twice, only to stare down upon him; my eyes feeling sorrowful just by looking upon his crippled body.
Time was running out…so for the time I had, I held back all my tears, all my emotions, and lifted his weak head up; trying to cradle him. Reassure him that help was coming, and that they would be here soon.
All I remember though, was the gentle touch of his ice cold fingers; pressing against my lips as he smiled vaguely.
“I won’t survive this…,” he stammered, his fingers slowly moving as he retracted them away from my lips.
“B-but you have too!” I yelled, my vow cracking away into nothing as I suddenly realized I was unable of hiding my emotions. “How do you expect me to make it without you?

The she-cat was restless, though, eager to get on with the day's work and see what was needed. Uncurling her body and stretching out, the pink-light managed to look a tad bit bigger than she actually was for a moment; her true size became revealed as she pushed herself to her paws.

through the haze and
the shadows of the demons that chase me
where you touched my eyes and they opened
and I tried to meet Your face
but You were gone
Then quiet footsteps sounded
a single pair where
no other met mine and
the realization came
I was alone, alone, alone-
Again
No light through barely open blinds
that shut out the world from a
face virgin to a smile
yet those blessed lashes still
brushed cheeks
to no longer see the image
burned into a mind
that remembered nothing
Chocolate stained mug wet with
early morning dew
a shiver of shoulders and back
exposed to the breath of the air
