Fallen Leaves

Chapter 1

I'm terrified, I can't find a way out. What if I don't make it? I have too! I must become a Sharpclaw!

        Hope flared in Fallen Leaves chest, but was quickly replaced by fear as he came to a dead end. Just as he came upon the dreaded end it started to rain. Hard.

          He ran back towards the way he came hoping he can find a way to outrun the water.

        To his distaste the water rose up to his belly, and his fur stuck to him. He hissed with annoyance and fear as the water was getting higher, and his fur was sticking to his body.

        How did the other Sharpclaws do this? If only I could've got a hint from Rock.

        The water was getting higher, and just then a wave of water was threatening to come towards him and swallow him whole.

        He looked back to find a gray cat following him.

        What!?

        The water coming closer and with his fear rising, he yowled "Save me!" But no such use, the water engulfed the strange gray cat, and was making its way closer to the orange and white tom. In just moments he too was swallowed by the dark eerie water.

        Dirt and water was filling his ears, eyes, and nose. With his lungs screaming for air, he was determined that he had to get out now. But which way was up? He tried to open his eyes again, only to be welcomed by dirt and water. He shut then tightly.

He let the raging water embrace him in its dangerous dance, and then darkness took over.
