The Heart of Rain

Chapter 8

Moon curled up next to Owl. Their fur blended together oddly.
Dusty purred, the too cats were always together.
"Dusty?" Mewed Oak
"Yes Oak?"
"Thank you for letting Owl in our family"
"He's a good kit" purred Dusty

Oak said nothing not meeting his gaze.
He sat down watching the monsters go past the monster path near by.

Rain sat up and opened her jaws.
"I SMELL BLOOD CLAN!" She yowled
"Get the kits."

The family climb up a tree and watched as the Blood Clan warriors filled the forest below, yowling and hissing. They are about to attack the clan cats.

The kits shivered and whined while Rain held them close. Rain still stared at Scourge with cold fury blazing through her.
Bone said something to Scourge. He must not have liked it because it made him angry  Scourge turned around clawed his muzzle.
The clan left making no noise at all. Rain could see the fear in all the cats eyes.
"one day that cat will be crow food." Hissed Rain.
Dusty said nothing, and went on nuzzling the frightened kits.

"I'll kill Scourge, if these clan cats don't." Oak spat
"I'll be with you." Hissed Owl "Then, we can rule the forest."
Rain gazed at Owl, something about that kit always made he nervous.
"By the time in six moons, Scourge will be dead."
Moon said nothing. She sat a stared at her brother. She never really talked much.
"Well that just so happens to be tomorrow." Meowed Dusty.

The next morning Moon and Owl decided to go hunting.
"Look a squirrel!" Mewed Owl

Moon chased the squirrel up a tree. She sank her claws in the hard oak tree and climbed up. The squirrel fell and was Startled by Owl who was waiting below.  It ran into the forest.
Moon raced down the tree.
"Where did it go?" She panted
" Uh, it ran into the monster path! Go get it!"
"Ok!"
Moon ran onto the monster path.
A giant monster came racing toward her, hitting her.
her limp body laid there.
Owl grind.
Then pulled her into the forest.
She was still half alive, slowly breathing.
"I'm sorry my love, but there is not room for you and your flee~pelt family in my forest." Hissed Owl.
Then he slid his claws across her throat. The final blow.
