Chapter 1

Flowerpaw rushed to keep up with her brother, as she has not eaten in days. She began to feel light-headed and called for her brother to stop,

"Stonepaw..." She swayed on her paws dizzily, "Ca-Can you slow down a little?"

"Uh of course, are you feeling okay?" He asked, giving her a quick lick on the forehead.

"Yea, I just need to grab a mouse or rabbit. Can you wait for me?"

Stonepaw looked at her puzzled, "I won't wait for you, I'll hunt for you. Stay here, I'll be right back." He padded off quietly away leaving Flowerpaw alone.

She looked around cautiously, waiting anxiously for her brother to return. She wrapped her tail around her paws and began licking the front of her chest. Suddenly, she heard a yowl from a few tail-lengths away. She stood and ran towards it, hoping it was not a cry from Stonepaw. She couldn't hear anything, and at once, she caught Stonepaw's scent. She raced along the path, and around trees, trying desperately to find her brother.

"Flowerpaw!" Stonepaw yelped. "Flowerpaw!"

She turned and saw Stonepaw, but he was not alone.

"We must take these two back to camp! Sandclaw, go with Mudfur and take these two rodents back to camp! Thornstar must know about these trespassers immediately!" One of the six cats had said. Two cats rushed towards Stonepaw and Flowerpaw and herded them towards a small, narrow path.

"Don't you have legs? Move!" Sandclaw yelled at Flowerpaw. Stonepaw made a low growl, but he forced himself to not fight, as he was sure he would lose.

Flowerpaw and Stonepaw were lead into a small area of no trees and no grass, just dirt. "Follow me!" Mudfur yowled angrily.

Flowerpaw and Stonepaw did as so, and followed her into a small cave. "Thornstar? We have found some trespassers for you."

"Trespassers?" Thornstar stood and walked over to the two cats. "They're nothing but kits! What are they doing in ForestClan territory?"

"We are not kits! We're apprentices!" Stonepaw yelled trying to defend himself.

"Oh? Then what are you doing in our territory!?"

"We didn't know!" Stonepaw hissed.

"What do you mean you didn't know? You know about apprenticeships and such, how can you fail to know about Clan territories?! Haven't your mentors taught you anything?" Thornstar raised his voice.

"We don't have a Clan!" Stonepaw silenced the den. "We don't know where we are."

"Explain," Thornstar said, not feeling guilty one bit.
