Lunar hissed, claws unsheathing. "What do you mean he got killed!" The molly would stand, making the tom shrink back. "The dog was too fast- I'm sorry, we couldn't retreat in-" "RETREAT?!" She yowled. "Your orders were to FIGHT BACK! Not run! If you defended yourself, maybe this wouldn't have happened!" Her eyes filled with hate. The tom, knowing his end was near, lashed out and tackled Lunar. The molly let out a growl with a smirk. "So, this is how you choose to die? You're pathetic, Jack." She hissed, before leaning in and clamping her teeth to his throat and claws to his chest. As she clawed and bit down, he could only shriek and cry in pain, before falling limp. She spat at the lifeless body. "He really is pathetic. Lotus, get him out of my sight. Feed him to the dogs." Lunar growled, and another molly, Lotus, nodded, dragging the body away.

Lunar would leap to the ground, and pad through a shady ally. "Beech." She mewed, making an orange tom jump. "Ah- Lunar. You scared me." He sighed. Lunar chuckled. "Yeah yeah. How's Moon doing? I'm still waiting to catch her off guard." Beech shrugged. "She's usually out at about this time..?" Lunar gave a grin, but Beech stopped her. "Please, Lunar. Leave her alone. She did nothing." Beech pleaded, but Lunar hissed and swatted him away. "I don't care. She gets on my nerves. Frederick complains about how she is, so simple solution. Death." Beech shook his head. "No. You won't kill her. I won't let you." He blocked the path. Lunar, being slightly larger than him, chuckled. "Are you sure?" Beech narrowed his eyes. "I'm too sure." 

Just then, Frederick padded up to them. "Lunar? And, who's..?" He squinted his eyes. He didn't even remember his own father. "Beech. I'm ehm, your mother's friend." Frederick nodded. "What were you guys talking about?" Lunar grumbled. "Nothing. I was just heading back to my place. Tell your mother I said hi." Lunar gave an aggravated stare, before turning and leaving.

She would glance at the forest. Her eyes shone slightly. "Maybe I can.." She'd step towards the forest, before suddenly leaping out. Her large, fluffy white body was easily seen through the trees. She'd slam her paws into the fresh, natural grass as she leapt through the trees. She felt something she hadn't felt in long. Happiness. Suddenly she halted. Would her brother approve of her having fun and not doing her job? No. He wouldn't. But, did that matter? No. She should think of herself more. And today, now, she would.

She'd then put all her strength into her hind legs, and spring into the forest. Eventually, she reached a river, and a very high cliffside near. She'd smirk and race towards, and up the land. Eventually she reached the top of the cliff, and stood at the edge, head lifted to the sunny sky, eyes shining with happiness and joy. This was the fun she dreamt of. Running around, being free, without pressure and without a care in the world.

She quickly whipped around, startled by a growl. It was a senior tom. He was bigger than her... That was pretty big. "What are you doing on treeclan--" He began, and then paused. Lunar looked him up and down, before eyes widening. "Slate?" Lunar's tail lashed to the side, and the senior tom replied. "Halfwing. Call me Halfwing.." Lunar gave a grin. "How have you been? It's been MOONS man!" Halfwing shook his head. "Lunar, you need to leave." She narrowed her eyes, "Why? I've looked for you for moons, and I've only just found you.." Halfwing growled. "I get that we were friends, but you shouldn't be here. This is treeclan territory. If-"

"Halfwing?" Dragonfang emerged from some bushes. She was also taller than Lunar, but slightly shorter than Halfwing. "Who's this?" She squinted. Halfwing sighed. "Lunar. An old friend. She--" "An old friend? Why didn't you say so! We can all hang out sometime--" Halfwing would grit his teeth and snap at her. "We aren't friends anymore, Dragonfang. She needs to leave before I-" "Let us have some fun!" Lunar interrupted. "Yeah. Wouldn't want me ratting to Birdstar about this?--" Dragonfang began. "Fine!" Halfwing hissed. "Be back before dark or I'll hunt you two down." He hissed, leaping away.

Lunar glanced back at Dragonfang with a smile. "So, where do we begin?"

 "So, where do we begin?"
