To a loner named Sun, life's been hard ever since her mother left her because of a power she didn't understand.

Soon, she runs into the four Clans: CloudClan, HollyClan, BreezeClan, and FlowerClan. She joins CloudClan, determined to start over and make a new life for herself. She doesn't need her mother. She doesn't need anyone but her new family, her Clanmates. On the night of her official welcoming into the Clan, something changes her mind: a prophecy, from the ancestors of her Clanmates. The prophecy states that the "apple will rise." The daughter of the leader, Applefoot, was never friendly with her. Suddenly, a plot seems to be uncovering itself right in front of Sunpaw's eyes. And with her power, she's the perfect candidate to rise to the top and save everyone. But something is stopping her. Something is tainting her soul, persuading her to use her powers for evil, and not good. Unless she can break free of what's binding her, she won't be able to use her powers for good. All she'll be able to do is cause pain, more pain, and even more pain. But it's not so easy, especially when she's got herself tangled in the ropes of the darkness. Suddenly, she realizes that she's no better than Applefoot. Paired with slowly falling hopelessly in love with a cat who never is clear with her, breaking free of her dark insides is seeming harder and harder. If she can't do it, then she'll never be able to see the face of good again. She'll be another apprentice gone wrong, and all she'll be remembered for is darkness. Sunpaw can't let that happen. But unless she figures out how to cut herself free from the darkness, then it will happen. And there will be nothing she can do it about it.Complete

A Minor Role
"I never wanted this- I never wanted you." I spat out at Xavier. His face crumpled up in anguish as he walked closer towards me. A part of me wanted to give in; to hold him and remove that look of pain from his face. But I couldn't - he wasn't mine to comfort, he wasn't mine to love. I backed up against the wall behind me, my eyes red and itchy with unshed tears. He placed an arm above my head and leaned in, "Don't say that. Stop trying to break my heart." His voice came out strained as he placed a hand under my chin, forcing me to look up at him. Multiple emotions ran through me at once as I stared into his eyes. Fear. Longing. Sadness. Before I could think of moving further away, he moved in one swift motion and pressed a heated kiss against my mouth. I sighed against his mouth as salty tears ran down my face. One thought raged louder than any other.
