if Mapleshade's kits lived

chapter 17 coming home



Patchstar lead his clan to a high ledge, "almost there," he told Bramble. "follow me." he helped Bramble down the ledge, while his littermates followed. "we're home," Petal meowed, Bramble looked around. "you live here?" Patchstar nodded,

"it's called MapleClan." "it's beautiful," he remarked in awe. "Myler created it," he meowed. Bramble tipped his head to one side,

"Myler?" Patchstar twitched his torn ear. "he heals scratches like yours." he explained,

stroking his fur with the tip of his tail. "you too, you have a deep scratch by Maggottail." Patchstar looked at the tom. "Maggottail? that's his name?" Bramble nodded, "he gave me a cut on my shoulder." "well, Myler can do that." he assured the small tabby. A black-and-white head appeared, "Larch told me there was a curten?" he asked, Larch rolled his eyes and padded closer to his ear.

"ugh, you're hearing is becoming as poor as your eyesight, I SAID, THERE WAS AN INJURED KITTEN, oh, and Petal is injured." Myler nodded and grabbed the kit by the scruff, "come, Petal," Petal left her kits by Larch and padded over to Myler.

Patchstar gazed at Bramble, his huge eyes gleaming, "I want all cats, old enough to catch their own prey, gather beneath the big rock for a clan meeting." senior warriors gathered in place, "Bramble, do you want to be an apprentice?"

he asked, "y-YES!!!" he meowed excitedly. "then, Bramblepaw, you are welcomed as an apprentice of MapleClan, you can choose a mentor, since you are special here." Bramblepaw narrowed his eyes, "you...and...Call me Bramble, I wanna keep my kittypet name." Patchstar shook with excitement, "very well, Bramble, tommarow, I shall show you around the forest." he dissmissed the meeting and leaped from the big rock, "you must be getting tired, how about rest." Bramble nodded and padded into the den.
