| StarClan have forseen doom. The first part of the prophecy has come true. But nearly Leafbare, just as Cloudpaw is about to become a warrior, a grave mistake is made. |
Prologue
"We can't keep waiting. It's nearly leafbare, and they've been gone for just under a moon." Webstar had nearly given up.
"No! They will return! They must return! The prophecy!" Bravesoul tried to comfort his leader, but Webstar looked away.
"StarClan have also forseen doom."
~One Moon Earlier~
Leopardclaw raced over the moor, chasing after her appprentice. Cloudpaw was on her final assessment before she became a warrior. Leopardclaw had lost her when she had dashed off to get a rabbit. Leopardclaw reached the top of the hill. A terrible screeching echoed across the hill.
Cloudpaw had been captured by twolegs!
Leopardclaw ran, and leaped, claws extended towards the twoleg who had Cloudpaw.
And the next minute she was looking from a monster window with Cloudpaw.
Being taken away.
Chapter 1 - Leopardclaw
The glass wall was high. Leopardclaw had figured that out. The twoleg who was keeping her and Cloudpaw trapped in this twoleg nest came and poured more kittypet nuggets into the cage. Leopardclaw sighed and laid down, as Cloudpaw ate a few pellets.
"How can you eat that slop." Leopardclaw was digusted that Cloudpaw was eating the food. She was also hungry and grumpy. The little bell in the doorway of the nest rang, and a twolegs and it's kit entered. The kit screeched, and ran over to the cats. Leopardclaw sighed again.
"Look happy. I have an escape plan." Cloud whispered in her hear. Lovely.
~Cloud~
The twoleg kit approched the cats, arms outstretched. It screeched again, giving Cloudpaw time to tell Leopardclaw her plan.
"When the twolegs pick us up," Leopardclaw pulled a face, and Cloudpaw mewed laughing. "We go with it for a while, and then jump out their arms and run for the door. It's open."
