// Unforseen Sunset

The black tom waited. And waited some more to watch Forsakenkit leap off the cliff. He readied himself for the attack, but none came. The kit looked to the left, and right, and seemed to think attackers were everywhere. Was she crazed? And finally after some waiting, the kit seemed alive once more. It came at him from the right, and unsheathing his claws he dug them into the ice so he didn't move much when she slung her body onto him. She seemed to favor going underneath him for attacking rather than on top however, as she went underneath and started clawing at his belly. Even though her claws were short, this was probably the one time Silentstar had actually gotten hurt by the kit. And as she bit down into the lower part of his neck he thought, This kit can kill.. his breath was barely caught in his throat, and would have been cut off by now if she was a warrior, but he smiled. This cat was the perfect match for CardinalClan with some training. But Silentstar hated losing, so if the kit had to die.... oops. With the extra weight on him, he spotted the open water. Forsakenkit didn't seem to want to let go, so why make her. The black leader took a couple prolonged leaps and bounds to get there, but once there he splashed quite ungracefully into the water. He wondered how long the kit would last without freezing to death in the cold, but his only goal was to get her off of him. If she started to show signs of death he would rescue her... or she could always swim. Yet another great attribute of a CardinalClan cat he wanted to see.

Forsakenkit hissed as Silentstar moved. She could tell exactly what he was doing. Before she could react, she was plunged under water. The could prickled at her sides and into her body. She stayed on him as long as she could. Her teeth deepened into his fur until she could barely taste blood. She shook herself off of him. She could feel her body filling with water. She coughed under water with annoyance. Stupid leader. Putting her under water. . She could tell that he wanted her dead, but she wasn't just going to die that easily. She wasn't a moron, nor was she a pushover. She didn't care what this cat wanted, it was what happened to her that mattered. Her back hit the stones at rock bottom slowly, hitting where it had hit the last time. Great StarClan, you stupid rocks. She thought, feeling a extreme hurt at her back bone. She struggled to swim up, her claws raking at the water. She tried to stay calm, and not to panic. If she panicked, then this leader would get his way. She would die, and the cat would walk back home and pretend that it never happened. Forsakenkit relaxed, allowing all the air out of her. No matter how much she felt like she was choking, she allowed herself to float to the top near Silentstar. Her back claw raked coincidentally against his front leg, but before she could say anything, she shrugged. Didn't matter if she hurt him or not. She then hit the top of the water, gasping for air. She took a slight glare at Silentstar and swam to the bank of the water. She looked at her paws. They were shaking. She either looked really stupid or really strong. Either way, she didn't care. And if she did look crazy, well, she sure as hell wasn't showing it.

Silentstar didn't realize how cold the water was, that is until he plunged himself and the kit into it. And only then did he realize he wouldn't last long in here himself if he didn't get out. He felt the weight of the kit drop soon after he hit the water, although he felt her prick his skin a bit. After the weight was gone though, powerful paws started churning the water, and he was at the surface. Catching a breath, he leapt, or crashed, onto the bank and stared into the water. I'll get her if she doesn't come up soon... he thought. The sun wasn't showing to give him instructions. Five... four... three... two... but as soon as Silentstar tensed to jump into the water to rescue to pitiful kit, its head popped above the water. A wave crashed into it, and thrust it down again before it came up again and went onto the opposite bank. And it even had the audacity to glare at him! Hah, the kit was a keeper for sure. Silentstar wanted this one as an apprentice... "So, enjoy the swim? You seem to have gotten confused on your way back up. Why don't you come join me over here?" Silentstar jeered. He actually would be impressed if the kit came over. But more than likely, their battle was drawing to an end, and he would have to rescue her from the other side of the bank. But he wouldn't. Or he would. Nah, he wanted this one as an apprentice, he would. Word Count;; 267 Muse;; Medium High Music;; TV Land Notes;; I POSTED [bg=1b1b1b][atrb=width,450,true] [atrb=border,0,true]

Forsakenkit licked her body, then glanced back at her backbone. It had a small scrape on it. . But it wasn't as bad as it had been with the freezing cold against it. She licked her sides when she heard Silentstar speak. He was softer this time, not as . . hostile. But he was still Silentstar. He still hated her guts. He still thought she was weak. She wasn't weak. If another kit could do what she had done and more, it would be dead by now. Forsakenkit looked back at Silentstar, her eyes narrowed. "You really think I can't? Watch this!" Forsakenkit took a few steps back, her body still shaking from the cold. Don't be a moron. She thought. Don't be a moron. You can do this. It's just a little cold. Cold won't hurt anybody. . Will it? She shook her head slightly to get the water off, ran, and plunged into the water. It hit her automatically. She looked around the water, trying to act just as calm as she had been. Her body was under water. But if she had to panic, she could come up for air any moment. It was fine. She was fine. There was no way she'd drown. . The current was pulling her back, but she tried and tried to get further, her head against the current. Me against the world. A voice said quietly in her head. It was her mother's. She suddenly felt stronger. Her mom believed in her. Her mom knew that she was strong, that she could do this. She continued to pedal against the current and, within a few minutes, longer than she had taken with Silentstar, she was halfway there. She treaded water, getting a burst of air at the top. The current wasn't fighting against her anymore. She swam, her back legs going numb from the cold. She finally reached the other side, tired. She was annoyed. She hated the stupid, stupid water. "It's so cold. B-But I did it. .'' She whispered, glancing up at Silentstar. If he brought her down even more, she'd hate his guts forever. Not like she didn't already. .

Silentstar watch in some form of amusement as the kit got ready to jump. But then to his amazement, it jumped back in the water. His face turned into somewhat of a smirk. This kit overestimated it's ability. It should really learn not to do that. But it was surviving pretty good in the water already , why make its fun stop? Oh but if the kit made it out alive he would keep her alive for the rest of the time. He just had to wait. Silentstar... the voice then came from overhead. He looked up to realize the sun had peeked through the clouds. Make this cat your apprentice... and you shall regret it... it said. And he blinked in confusion. But he wanted this cat as his apprentice! Now he wasn't so sure... But before he got too far along in thought, he saw the kits head pop up again, and it swam to Silentstar's side of the bank. Silentstar blinked, before nodding. "Good job, kit.." he mewed, thoughts stll swirling in his mind. He turned around, black tail brushing against Forsakenkit's nose without him noticing, and he took a couple of paces the other way. Then he figured it out. This was all a set up. Forsakenkit was planning to kill him! That's what the sun meant! He whipped around, fur standing up. "Did you think I'd fall for that?" he growled, as he lunged toward the kit, and in his anger, and to his surprise, he missed the kit. If he had actually hit her she'd probably died. "I'm not stupid!" he growled again, whipping around to face Forsakenkit again. He could feel the edge of the river right behind him. The cold water lapped slightly at his paws. But he didn't care for the moment. Word Count;; 310 Muse;; Medium Music;; Beatlemania, marching band here I come! Notes;; Silent is crazyy. [bg=1b1b1b][atrb=width,450,true] [atrb=border,0,true]

Forsakenkit smiled slightly, barely, as he commented on her. She was glad at least he cared a little bit . . Just barely, but he was still crazy. She looked up at the sky. The cold of the water still was in her fur, and when he lunged at her, she gasped unnaturally, backing away like a coward. She frowned at him, confused. Why would he. . What did she do? She then narrowed her eyes. He thought. . He thought that she was tricking him? All she did was swim across! She wasn't bloodthirsty, though she wished she could be a leader, it wasn't like. . like she was going to kill him for it. She creased, worry lines appearing. "Silentstar. Mouse brained fool. I wasn't trying to kill you. You're the one who wanted me to fight you. And I did well, I thought. And you told me to come over here, and you were doubting me, so I did. Is that so bad?" She was amazed that he had insulted her like that. . questioned her. If she was to try and kill him, she would wait until she was a warrior anyway, when she had some pounds on her, when she was older and wiser. But she wasn't trying to kill him. She wouldn't. . At least, that's what she thought. No reason to kill him. "S-Seriously, do you do this to anyone who does everything you a-ask?'' Her voice shook from the cold that was rocking it. Her tail lashed. She was annoyed now. Why would she try and kill him? She continued to ask herself this question. It was a stupid, stupid assumption. That she would try and kill him. . Ttch. . She pulled herself from off the ground. She felt cowardly. Besides, he wouldn't kill her unless he thought she was a threat. Which he did think she was. But she wasn't that much of a threat. To him, she was just a kit. To her, she wasn't going to try and kill him, but she wasn't just a kit. She knew that. Or maybe he did think just a little bit more of her now, because she had swam back across. Her body still shook from the cold. She tried to ignore it. She felt so weak now, shaking from just a little cold. . Well, it was more than just a little cold. And if she was to kill him. . Wouldn't she do better than that? She stood her ground, her claws still sheathed, but instead, annoyed more than ever at the black colored tom.
