never lie, little bat...
the most important thing
bat has ever been taught
has to be to never lie. “lying
is a simple yet important
lesson. and you should never
lie. lying will only get yourself
deeper into the hole you already
dug. even if your breaking the
warrior code, never lie little
one..” batpaw can remember
his father’s words. “now let me
tell you a story..” his father said.
“do you know why your mother
got thrown out of the clan batkit?
no? it’s because she was a liar and
a codebreaker. a liar is the worst
thing a cat can turn out as. your
mother was a liar well, simply because
she was a medicine cat. she fell
in love with me. a few moons later
a cat called sticktwig had kits. the one
kit looked a lot like me. I was confused.
only three of the four kits looked like
sticktwig. I confronted your mother
about it. she said “no”. of course I
didn’t believe her. I then confronted
sticktwig about it. she confessed that
one of them were mine and your that
one.” he said, pausing. “trust me I don’t
regret having you, I love you batpaw.
anyway I went up to the leader and told
then everything. every cat was listening
your mothers eyes were full of fear and
sadness. the leader announced she would
be thrown out the next day. I left the clan
on that night batpaw. that’s why I’m a loner
remember one thing of me batpaw. Never.
Be. A. Liar.”

Prompt;;
The most memorable thing that Quickpaw's been taught? He'd have to answer that he isn't invisible. He isn't the best behaved cat when it comes down to things, but he does know how to do a clean job of something. Anything. A vole's life gets ended without a squeal, without a speck of blood. A bush gets navigated without breaking a twig. A rule gets broken with no witnesses.
Or so he thought. There was always a witness. Always an eye sharper than his movements were quick. Even he could not escape punishment. And while it bred resentment in him, he took it as a challenge. But he still could not escape.
No matter what he did, as long as he had a breath and a heartbeat, he would not be invisible

Prompt;; The most memorable thing Finchpaw has been taught is that fighting is just as much about using your brain as it is using your brawn. Her mentor made sure to pound that message into her head when she first became an apprentice. In their first training session, Finchpaw was ready to give up, as she could not land a single blow on her mentor no matter how hard she threw herself at him. Finally, her mentor sat her down to explain what she was doing wrong: she wasn’t using her head, especially as she got more and more frustrated. She needed to be smarter in how she came at him. Then they started fighting again; every time Finchpaw didn’t use her head, her mentor would push her down and say it again. Since then, when the young she-cat goes down in a fight, this lesson comes to mind, forcing her back up again even when she’s facing a bigger and stronger opponent.

Stay quiet. Stay hidden. Stay safe.

Every day, Mama would tell Dusty those same words before she went out to hunt. He would wait for her in their dark, quiet den- sometimes almost the whole day! Sometimes she would bring back something tasty to eat. Sometimes she didn't.

Dusty tried his very best to do what Mama said. After all, the forest could be scary! It wasn't so hard to stay quiet, hidden, safe.

Except sometimes, it was hard. Day after day of staying quiet, hidden, safe could be so boring! So sometimes, Dusty would come out of the den to play. He didn't go far- he only wanted to chase a butterfly or play with a bundle of feathers. He always made sure to be back in the den before Mama got back, so she would know that he was quiet, hidden, safe.

One day, when Mama came home after he had been playing outside, they heard voices. Mama and Dusty huddled at the back of the den - quiet, hidden, safe. But they weren't safe. the voices said they had seen a kit playing here, and they were going to "take care of it."

Then the bad cats came right into their den! It was so scary! Mama said to run, and Dusty ran. She said she would follow him. He ran far, far away.

Mama never came.

When the new cats came, he was scared. He tried to stay quiet, hidden, safe, but he couldn't find a good hiding place. They found him, but they were nice. They said they were from JuniperClan and that he could go live with them.

The nice cats showed him the "nursery" den, and he agreed to stay there with a nice cat called Robinfrost. He promised himself that he wouldn't make the same mistake again- he would never ever leave his den. He would stay quiet. Stay hidden. Stay safe.
