Pacing about ShadowClan's camp became a sort of past-time for Kestrelstorm. The gray tabby-pelted tom sometimes felt like pulling out his fur and running away to nowhere. But today, he thundered about the marshy camp, in a bad-tempered state of mind. The broad-shouldered tom unsheathed his claws and dragged long, deep etches into the watery ground in his stressful anxiety. "They're probably all dead." started Eveningfall, who was Kestrelstorm's best friend. He ruffled his reddish-brown fur. Of course, this did not help. Kestrelstorm voiced this out snappishly, and the other reddish tom rolled his sunflower-yellow eyes. "If you really cared for those kits, you'd invade VenomClan." Eveningfall muttered sarcastically, crawling out of the shadowy ShadowClan den. His blunt features slid in and out of the filtered white light from above the pine trees broughs. Then he added in a lower tone, "But one would have to be suicidal. I hear they dip their claws in the juices of adder venom."
Kestrelstorm stared at his comrad, deep amber eyes, akin to the colour of maple tree sap, widened with a newly found idea. "Thats it!" yelped the ShadowClan tom, leaping up in glory. "We'll invade VenomClan camp and take back my kits! Songbird was originally a ShadowClan queen, we have all the rights! What are a bunch of mange-ridden rouges going to do?" "No! Idiot! What are we going to do, stroll right into a group of vicious cats who killed the old WindClan deputy without question, and hope they hand over the kittens?Maybe they'll giftwrap them in silver foil too, since kits are very important to any Clan!"

Nightpaw eavesdropped on the toms' conversation. She hid in the shadows, which hid her black pelt, but her piercing emerald eyes, stood out, and watched the toms hungrily. The apprentice formed an evil plan in her head. First, I need to convince them to go through with that plan. Then, my father could "kidnap" me, but I would actually join! Then, the proud Shadowstar might evencome to rescue me! Dusk could kill her then!! Grinning, she walked to where the toms stood. Attachments:

Dawnstep frowned as she trailed after the little black kit, her fiery orange fur gleaming in the white light. "I'm not sure if we should do that." She said to the toms anxiously, flicking a long tail towards Nightkit. "What if they decide to return the favor and steal away with Nightkit?"

The apprentice hissed. "I"m NightPAW not NightKIT! The only kits in ShadowClan are Acornkit, Ivorykit and Ebonykit. But, Dawnstep DOES have a point. We should only take a few of our warriors. The others need to guard the kits! And you're right Kestrelstorm! Songbird lived in ShadowClan before VenomClan! Who cares if her kits were born there! THEY BELONG TO SHADOWCLAN!!" Nightpaw hissed. I feel NO loyalty towards this fox-dung clan. But, this is the ONLY way for them to agree with me! she thought bitterly.

Kestrelstorm murmured in agreement with Nightpaw. "Well..." The gray tabby tom started, biting his lower lip in thought. It was a hard decision, after all. Bringing fellow ShadowClan warriors into his own personal battle. "I won't force my fellow Clanmates to join me. They can only come if they wish. But they should be well-trained warriors, suitable for battle." His deep amber eyes rested on Dawnstep. "I won't let them. They have my kits. I need them back." He added softly, his tail swishing in anticipation.

Nightpaw smiled. She had won the battle. "I'll come. Don't even try to stop me. I know ALL the battle moves. I have an idea! Why don't we see if Shadowstar would like to come along!" she mewed. That way I.. or rather my father can kill two birds with one stone. she added silently. I'll be a member of VenomClan.... and Shadowstar will be dead. Uable tvo supress her hapiness entirely she let out a laugh of rage, and craziness. Nightpaw felt energized, her black coat shone and her green eyes sparkled like emeralds. But, her heart was full of madness and desire.

"Er." Kestrelstorm stammered, staring at the black apprentice. He was surprised a the she-cat's enthusiasm. She was so quick and happy to volunteer herself to the vicious claws of VenomClan, all he could do was wonder. He added then, returning to his normal voice, "Shadowstar isn't coming for my own personal battle. She's far too important to lose. Are you sure you want to go?"
(All the leaders are supposed to be murdered all together in one night ^^)

((I know... but Mightkit doesn't.)) Nightpaw quickly toned down her enthusiasm. "Of course she's to important to lose... But I am going. It will be my first real battle! Don't tell me you weren't excited about YOUR first battle?" she inquired. Well, only one of the two will happen. Sigh. But, on a brighter note, I get to be with my father! Nightpaw sighed a fake sigh. 'I guess if you don't want me to go i'll just hang here..." she told Kestrelstorm, fake tears in her eyes.

Kestrelstorm suddenly felt uncomfortable again. The stone-gray tom was never used to the crying of young cats, he cuch never stomach their wailing and shrieking. "Well..." He took Nightpaw's tears for worry and fear. Maybe she was trying to cover everything up. He continued uncertainly, "You don't need to come too if you're scared. It would be a good experience, I imagine that VenomClan wouldn't hurt a young cat."

Nightkit felt like spitting in Kestrelstorm's face, but instead just grinned and looked him in the eye."I'm not scared. Just.. excited! I just want to test my skills in battle. So... who should come?" she asked innocently, her eyes shining like emeralds. Her black coat shone in the light and her enthusiasm was unmatched by any warriors. "Besides.... those kits belong to ShadowClan. Let's take them back." she stated.

Acornkit sat in the shadows of a bush, to embarassed to be called a kit by Nightpaw. He knew he would probably never mate with her, seeing how she doesn't take interest in kits. He could hint the anger behind her voice as Kestrelstorm said she was scared. He smiled his gleaming smile and stalking over to where the cats lay.
"Wouldn't it be better if you actually found a way to get in first so you know if you can escape with the kits instead of get in and die at first alarm? All hear is the angry chattering of birds."

Nightpaw glanced at Acornkit and saw humiliation in his eyes. Probably from being called a kit... She looked at Acornkit again and flashed a smile. He was nice enough, but felt loyal towards Shadowclan, which in Nightpaw's mind was his only flaw. "You could be right... but if they find one of us they'll know we're planning an attack. The only solution is to use the element of suprise! But... that was a great idea Acornkit." she purred.

((I just found out Acornkit is old enough for his apprentice ceremony. ))
Acornkit nodded as if he had already got those kits back to VenomClan. He licked his shoulder fur, trying to make it lie down as his fur started to creep up. He was happy and full. What more could he want except the promising love of Nightpaw?

"Alright. You can come." The stone-gray tom agreed to Nightpaw, hoping that she wouldn't be injured or worse, killed, in the fight. His attention was then turned to Acornkit, who was standing before the Nursery. The tomkit was beginning to build the musclar frame of a young apprentice. Kestrelstorm watched as the two cats spoke to each other. "Acornkit, aren't you old enough for your apprentice ceremony? You could come too, if you wish."

Nightpaw's jade green eyes flashed amber. "That's a great idea! it would be great fun having you come along!" she purred her eyes eager at the thought of Acornkit coming. Maybe... just maybe he'll join VenomClan too! When I was in the nursery with him he could pin me to the ground easily, even though I was bigger, and older! her thoughts made her pleased and she smiled an evil smile, but it could easily be mistaken for a happy one from some cat who had little intelligence.
