Cinderstorm's Love

Prologue

"Acornpaw wait up!" a grey she-cat called as she ran around the clearing. She was chasing after a brown tom who was holding a large wad of moss in his mouth. 

"Have to catch me first, Cinderkit!" he teased as he raced out of the main tunnel. Her tail flowing behind her, she ran as fast as she could to catch him. She skidded to a stop as she saw him and the deputy, Smokepelt, talking. The moss ball was rolling down the tunnel towards her and she couldn't help but pick it up. 

He must have run into her patrol. She thought as she carried her trophy over to the fresh-kill pile. 

A few moments later Acornpaw came running up to her. "Why didn't you help me?" he teased.
