"Where are we going mom?" The bush rustled before a small kit tumbled out. It's black fur blended into the darkness of the sky. "Mom?" It called softly towards the bush. "Mom? Are you still there?"

"Alex?" An Identical kitten stepped out. Its fur completely the opposite of the first kit. The kits red eyes glowed with fear and curiosity. "Where's mom Alex?"

The violet eyes of the black cat blinked. "Is she still in the bush? Go check, Sonny."

The white kit, Sonny, peered into the overgrown bush. At first it called softly, then louder and louder. "Mom!" The two kits began to call to call together. "Mom! Please answer! Mom! Where are you!"

After giving up, Sonny turned around and froze. Gently, Alex nudged her brother. "Sonny, maybe we should go look for her. I mean, she's obviously not in there anymore. Sonny? Sonny? Im talking to you, Furball!" Alex turned around and twitched her ear at the site. Thirty or forty cats stood blankly staring at them. Four stood on a rock. Alex shrunk back behind her brother fearfully.

"What in StarClans name?"

Alex heard a Cat gasp. "Sonny." She squeaked pitifully. Two cats stepped forward with their fur bristling. They sucked in the air and turned back to the four cats on the rock.

"Rouges or kitty-pets." They stated. One of the cats that stepped forward, a golden brown tabby tom, picked her up by the scruff of the neck and carried her towards the group of cats. While the other cat, a dark brown tabby tom, carried Sonny. Alex dangled limply while Sonny fought back, kicking and hissing.

"Where are you from?" A flame-colored tom asked them. He was standing among the four on the rock. When Sonny and Alex didn't reply, he asked again.

"We don't know!" Snapped Sonny. Alex winced at his harshness. She didn't think he should be talking like that when they were outnumbered and just kits. When the fire cat asked where their mother was, sonny snapped "We don't know!" again.

"Do you have a home?" The fire cat asked

Before Sonny could snap something, Alex mumbled a reply.

"Excuse me?"

"No…." Mumbled Alex.

Sonny struggled some more. He reached up and swatted at the toms muzzle, making him release him. Sonny ran over and started pouncing on the golden tabby carrying Alex. The tabby released her and tried to swat Sonny off. "Hey!" He argued when Alex pounced on him too. A few cats laughed at the site. Finally, the tabby managed to get the kits off of him. "Don't do that again!"

"Don't pick my sister up again!" Sonny snapped back.

The golden tabby hissed something at the two kittens. "Brackenfur! That's enough." Obediently, the golden tabby just glared.

The cats on the rocked whispered some before announcing, "Brackenfur, Dustpelt, and Cedarheart, please watch these kits while we discuss something. Brackenfur plopped down infront of them, as well as the tabby tom who carried sonny and a dusky brown she-cat.

A few minutes passed by what seemed like hours to Alex. She crouched down and rested her head on her brothers paws, while he glared at the three cats. Finally the fire cat spoke again. "It has been decided. The two rougues will come home with ThunderClan." And the four cats leaped off the rock.
