Socks and Ruby. It just had to be them, didn't it? Why can't I just have a peaceful life for once without anything clogging the river!, Scourge paced around his den, muttering curses and insults, Cloudtail stood at the entrance, looking inside at the angry tom, "Scourge, you've been on that for days!" Cloudtail mewed, "Why didn't Firestar just send them off to die!?" Scourge yowled, throwing his head back in an exaggerated manor, "Firestar probably just feels pity for them" Cloudtail cautiously walked inside the den, "besides, I guess he felt like that because he is also a kittypet" Scourge whipped around to face Cloudtail, "Yet he took them in without batting an eyelash!" He hissed, "I am more worth than those mouse brained excuse of a cat!" Cloudtail looked at scourge with sympathy, the fluffy warrior had asked Scourge why he was so ravaged about the kittypets that were taken in, and Scourge said that they were his old littermates and that they had bullied him for being small, "I know you are distressed right now.." Cloudtail started, "but you need to let the past be in the past and look forward towards a better future" Scourge flopped onto the moss bedding and let our one last wail of sadness before curling up into a ball and continuing to curse, Cloudtail sighed and walked out of the den, looking at the stars that rested above the forest, Starclan help this poor cat, he thought before going back into the warriors den.

The next morning, Firestar's loud meow echoed across the clearing, "All cats who are old enough to catch their own prey, please gather beneath the Highrock!" Scourge pushed his way through the overhangs of his den, staring at Firestar for a long moment before trooted towards the Highrock, "As you know, a quarter moon ago, two outsiders were brought in to camp" he mewed loudly "me and Greystripe have discussed this for awhile and we have come to a conclusion that.." The whole clan reared in, waiting for Firestar's answer, "Socks, and Ruby, will be a part of this clab as Apprentices!" The clan yowled agreements and horrays, Grr, Socks and Ruby are just acting nice to claw through to the clan.. Scourge growled at the thought, They're not gonna fool me!, I dont care if they die or get into a mess, im not helping them. Even if my life depended on it, Scourge twisted around and started to leave, "But what are their names?!" Snapped Longtail, smirking evily, Firestar nodded in acknowledgemeny and turned to the two kittypets, "Socks, from this day forward, you will be known as Shadepaw!" then Firestar looked at Ruby, "Ruby, From this day forward, you will be known as Skypaw!" Scourge snorted as the clan cheered Socks and Ruby's new names, "Shadepaw! Skypaw!" as they walked down from the Highrock.

After the clan meeting Shadepaw and Skypaw bounded up to Scourge, "Tin-Scourge!" they chirped, "we got clan names!" Scourge's claws scratched at the ground below him, "You may have clan names but you are NEVER going to be a clan cat!" he hissed, whipping around and stalking off. Scourge squeezed through the entrance to camp and turned to climb a tree, heaving his way up the suddenly slippery trunk, Scourge heard mewing in the distance. The tom looked at the direction of the squeals and walked towards it. As he emerged from a bush, he saw two kits under a large overhang of brambles and lichen. Why are they here? Scourge thought, curling up around them and starting to lick them, What is this scent?, It seems familiar.. Scourge continued to wash the kits, thinking of names to grant them, Heatherpaw?, no... maybe Leafpaw or Grasspaw?, what are those things the twolegs use that connect to the big box to make moving pictures? Scourge thought for a moment before studying the pelts that the kits have. One had a white coat with a grey muzzle and ears, A long black tail and grey paws, a slick long, thin line ran across his back and connected with its black tail. The other was similar, except it had a black coat with white paws, the tips of its ears were white and the tip of its rail was white as well. The same long line that ran across the back and connected with the tail was giving the illusion that the stripes were extending white from the line to midway down the sides. Was the thing called a wire? i think so.. I'll name the white one Wirepaw and the black one Gearpaw!, Scourge concluded, "You're Wirepaw" Scourge tapped the white kits forehead with his claw, "and You are Gearpaw" he said before doing the same thing.

HI Im back in bussiness! what will happen to the kits next? is something bad about to go down? i cant wait to write it! until then! <3
