Moonstar's Tale

Prologue

The forest was silent until an ear splitting yowl sent black birds flying from the trees and into the night sky. Clouds were starting to cover up the moon and the stars twinkled as if in anger.
Shortly after the yowl there were battle cries filling the forest. Inside, cats were shedding blood in a huge battle. At the side of the battle were three cats: A lightish brown tom, a gray she-cat, and a Siamese looking she-kit.
The gray she-cat was running away from the battle, the young she-kit dangling from her jaw. The lightish brown tom was fighting off any of the opposing cats that tried to cut off the escaping cats.
Once the three cats found safety away from the battle, the tom looked at the she-cat, hoping for one last conversation. The she-cat wanted one to, and the tom could see it in her eyes, so he started one, "A-are you sure you want to do this, Starlight?", he stammered.
"No. I don't. But I have to, for Moonkit's sake. You know that, Saberfang", she replied sadly.
"Yes....I know...", The tom, Saberfang, said.
Starlight placed the kit, who seemed to be Moonkit, on the ground, licked Saberfang in between the ears, grabbed Moonkit by the scruff again, and raced off towards a row of twoleg dens.
"...I hope being a kittypet won't be bad for her. I've just got to remember...", Saberfang was muttering to himself as he watched his mate disappear around the corner of a twoleg den with his kit. He never said the last part of his sentence, but he did in his mind, that we're breaking the Warrior Code for the safety of our kit!
