Moons ago, the five warrior clans, ThunderClan, WindClan, RiverClan, ShadowClan, and SkyClan were destroyed by a massive storm. A tornado tore through the territories, and a massive forest fire ran through ThunderClan. The cats who were able to escape alive fled. With the remaining cats, StarClan contacted many warriors, even kittypets, to create new clans. If their plan failed, the warrior code may just be lost forever.

prompt: Skykit sprang lightly over a discarded bottle, darted up to the wall, and slowly peeked around the corner. Nobody's there! Congratulating herself on her cleverness, the tiny kit ran out onto the walkway, every hair on her body bristling with purpose.

That wasn't to say she didn't get distracted; she was pulled away from her journey by every small noise in the dark shadows, every crawling bug passing by, every flash of light of the dark waters running alongside her path. This deep in the sewers, there wasn't much light or motion, but Skykit devoted her entire attention to investigating every scrap she could find.

About fifteen minutes later (it would've been sooner, but there had been a nest of baby mice in a half-empty trash bag and Skykit had just had to see them)/ her destination came in sight. She'd split off from the main tunnel a while ago, leaving the constant drip-drip and splish-splash of the sewer far behind. Here, there was only a heavy silence, laden with promises of adventure and mystery.

Skykit ignored the enticing scents of things unknown; she was on a mission tonight.

A few more tail-lengths ahead, and - there! A massive pile of trash bags and other Twoleg refuse. Sweet scents mixed with the stench of rot and other, more exotic things - but that was not what Skykit had come to see. With an almighty leap, she sprang onto a bag at the bottom of the stack; then, leaving ragged holes behind her, she clawed her way up another one. Slowly, slowly, Skykit worked her way up the hill. Along the way, her imagination ran so wild - here's Skystar, leader of Whisperclan, climbing the icy mountains to rescue her clan! The evil rogues do whatever they can to stop her, but she'll come out triumphant in the end! - that she nearly forgot caution.

And then - just as she'd neared the top, just as there was only one sack left between her and the pinnacle - she heard it. Skykit paused, head tilted to catch the noise once again - and there it was, a nearly inaudible swish sound.

For a moment, she was shaken - this was her special spot, not fit for any mangy rogue intruder. Then she was filled with rage. Just let them try to take me on, she thought furiously. I'll show them what Whisperclan can do!

Quietly, carefully, she crept around to the side, glimpsing a flash of soft fur. Tensing her muscles, she leaped into the air, yowling a battlecry - and froze. Tabby fur painted silver by the moonlight, illuminated in the shaft of soft light trickling through the grate overhead, was Witheredstar. She'd never been this close to him before; her mother had always shuffled her away when he came near. He was enormous, larger than any cat she'd ever seen - and much, much larger than Skykit.

Skykit swallowed.

Witheredstar started, appearing to notice her for the first time. For a silent, tense moment, leader and kit sized each other up. Then, Witheredstar's eyes softened. "Do you come here, too?" he asked.

His voice was much softer than she'd imagined it to be. Skykit nodded.

Witheredstar dipped his head. "Come up." Step by step, Skykit's paws drew her nearer to the scarred leader's. He shifted over, allowing her to stand just beneath the grate. Over their heads, past the iron bars of the rusted grate, dozens and dozens of stars spun wildly across the sky. It was a sight Skykit had never seen before; only occasionally, when she was able to slip away from her mother, could she see the sky. Someday, she promised herself, I will grow up and be the best fighter my clan has ever known - and I'll see the sky every day of my life!

Pressing herself against Witheredstar's warm fur, Skykit let herself dream. [640/650]

Prompt:
Wonderkit's green eyes blinked as they slowly adjusted to the darkness inside of the old fox den he had been staying in for the past 5 moons. /Perfect!/ He thought to himself as he wrestled his way out from under his mother’s paw. He tiptoed out of the den into the clearing in the middle of the camp. It wasn’t a full moon yet, but it was getting close. There was plenty of light for him to navigate his way out of camp but he didn’t need it since he’s been walking the same path every night for 3 moons now. Wonderkit’s mom told him that he was named because he opened his eyes only a few minutes after birth and they were such beautiful eyes too. Eyes full of wonder. He scuffed as he thought about that, /No, I’m going to actually live up to my name./ He had thought when a beam of moonlight woke him up 3 moons ago.

“Ouch.” Suddenly, the ground came up to Wonderkit’s face as he tripped over a root. “Day 8, still haven’t remembered the tree root.” He mumbled to himself as he got back on his paws and made a point to hop over the root. His ears flicked, honing in on the sounds around him, hoping to not get caught here. He was only a few days from apprenticeship and StarClan forbid if he got caught now.

After a few more minutes of leaping at piles of fallen leaves and getting distracted by bugs with a light on their butt, Wonderkit finally got to a far corner of the tribe’s territory. He headed under a large oak tree and dug between two of the tree’s roots.

He used his muzzle to push around the dirt and pulled out a round, shiny, gold ball between his jaws. He walked a few tail lengths from the base of the tree and dropped the ball on the ground. It made a soft ringing noise as something inside of it got knocked around. He could see the reflection of the moon on the bell.

Wonderkit would stay there until the moon started to set. He quickly reburied the bell and ran back to camp before his mother discovered he was missing.

The reason why he would risk getting a late apprenticeship for a bell is that the bell was symbolic to him. It taught him that he could live up to his name of Wonder and that it was also a little secret that he kept from his mother.
