Chapter One Mousekit opened her eyes to the sight of Nutkit’s thin gray tail twitching in annoyance. Slowly, as she woke up more, other parts of the drama she was about to witness registered in her brain. She came to the realization that once again, she was in MesaClan’s nursery in the middle of a fight. With a silent sigh, she heaved herself to her feet, and tried to escape what was to come. “Mousekit!” shrieked the dust-colored tom on the other side of Nutkit. “Help!” “Don’t you beg!” hissed Nutkit before she pounced on Mothkit. She pummeled him with soft paws until he broke down in laughter. “Leave-” Nutkit turned toward Mousekit with a haughty gleam in her eyes, “-poor, sleepy Mousekit alone! She only wants to go find her mother, who incidentally-” The kit’s eyes narrowed. “-left her asleep while she took Skykit out to see the leader.” Mousekit successfully bit back the angry retort, knowing that Nutkit and Mothkit’s father, Sparrowshade, would surely be around to hear. The ginger cat was quick to defend his kits honor, and sometimes took Mousekit’s punishment for “disgracing” his kits into his own paws. Mousekit shook out her tortoiseshell pelt before stalking up the tunnel, to the nursery’s entrance. As she passed Nutkit, she lashed her tail. It hit the ginger and gray kit’s nose stiffly. Mousekit could hear Nutkit’s hisses as she bounded up the slope into the sunlight. Once she got out of the cave, Mousekit wandered over to the freshkill pile. She glanced over the the two items left before leaving. Mousekit’s skin was prickling strangely. She once again shook out her pelt, but it didn’t seem to help. Suddenly, her vision blacked out. Mousekit crouched to steady herself, but it didn’t seem to help. She flattened her ears, but it failed to stop the pressure of… what? She suddenly had the horrible feeling of getting flung up in the air. She screeched with terror. And suddenly, it stopped. The pressure lifted, and Mousekit realised her eyes were closed. She tentatively opened then, and gasped in wonder. She was surrounded by glittering stars. Cats’ whispers filled her ears, and Mousekit was strangely comforted by them. She couldn’t tell what they were saying, but she felt very safe. But the whispers got louder, and the stars began to spin. Finally, Mousekit felt her eyes close and she was falling, falling, falling… All the hidden cats spoke in unison. “Overlooked.”
Hey guys! Welcome to the first chapter of what I hope lasts more than two weeks :') But more on that later. I know I posted a project that said you could help decided a lot of the fanfic, but... well, it didn't get many comments. So I just decided to make up a bunch of my own clans and start right away! So come on and step into the word of MesaClan, and it's rivals CliffClan, FjordClan, and BogClan! I have been working literally all day on this, so I hope this is successful, and that I stick to it. And you can help with that! To keep up my motivation, please, if you want to see more chapters, leave a love, fav, positive comment, or maybe even some fanart? Idk, that might be a little bit much. Also, if you want, you can leave one of your own OCs (original characters) to be part of one of the rival clans! Just leave a name and description and your set! Enjoy!
