Just a Dream...

Moon looked at him, and sighed. Wouldn't be long before...Moon shook her head. It wasn't happening yet, and she had to break it to Feather first.

Swift noticed a strange look on Moon's face as he liped over. He laid down as he asked her what was wrong

"Hm?" Moon wondered, looking at him. "Oh, nothing. I'm fine. A little regret for something, and yet joy for it. It's nothing to worry about yet, little one, you'll find out soon enough."

Swift's eyes were wide with confusion and he tilted his head. He went back outside the nursery and closed his eyes

Moon went inside the Sharpclaws' den and started making room for something, careful not to bother Mist.

Swift's eyes shot open as his tail hurt again. He looked at it. Strange, as it wasn't bleeding.

Moon walked over to her den and grabbed some feathers, and went back in the Sharpclaws' den.

Swift licked his tail. Then he realized why it hrut so bad. He caughed up a hairball, covered it up with some dirt, and looked at his tail again. His tail was tugged so much that some of his fur was falling off. Swift got angry. He went to go find Acorn

Moon rolled her eyes. She went outside and picked him up. She put him in the nursery. "Look, leave her alone. Fur grows back." Moon left, hiding in the shadows in case they got close again.

Swift went back into the nursery and pouted. She nearly ripped his tail off and he didn't even get to lay a paw on her

"I know you'll be a Cave-guard when you're older, but now is not the time to fight rough!" Moon scolded. "You're kits! Have fun and play fight! Don't get hurt."

Swift nodded as he realized she was right. That still didn't make him not happy about Acorn

Moon padded over to Acorn. "Acorn, you need to understand something." she said. "Until you're To-bes, you can't play rough. We don't want our kits to be injured and held back when they should have their ceremony. What if Swift did it to you?"

Acorn stared at Swift. "Then I would kill him." She mumbled. Swift wouldn't ever do that. "I'm more of a leader." She said proudly, until she tripped and laughed. She narrowed her eyes at Swift. "But I would kill him." She repeated, even more threatening. Acorn smiled at Moon. "But he will never do it." She said, happily.

''Hey,I don't want to here that from a kit.Swift is part of the tribe too,You'll never win any battles if you kill your own kind.''Feather snapped at Acorn.

"Acorn!" Moon snapped. "If you kill Swift, or any others for that matter, I promise you will be punished until you learn your lesson or get eaten by a hawk, you hear me!?" she yelled.

Swift flattened his ears at the booming voice ( It echeos ) He went out of the nursery. He saw Acorn, narrowed his eyes. And laid back down

Moon stormed out and went to the nursery. "If you heard that, it goes for you too! If not, then never mind!" She shook her head. She was so angry. She couldn't turn her back without having trouble with Acorn.

Swift circled and laid down, burying his head in his paws. He didn't know what was wrong with these cats. Acorn tried to kill him, Moon's going mad, and he's alone. Just like always. I'm alone.... He thought. He gave sigh and rested.

Moon heard him sigh over all her anger and looked back to see him laying down. She padded back. "Look, I'm really sorry." she apologized. "It's just...I have a lot to deal with right now. I have to train Feather, make sure Acorn doesn't go mad, and watch over the Tribe. It's...it's hard."

He looked up. " I know Moon. It's just that Acorn..... Do you think she meant it? The part where she said she could kill me? " He asked, His eyes wide

"No! You're her friend!" Moon said. "Besides, if she meant it, I'd punish her like crazy and you'd be very much alive."

Feather walked over to swift and layed down.She started purring.''Don't worry swift.Acorns just a little wacko.''Feather purred.

Moon laughed. "She'll be off your back in no time." she said.

Feather began to groom herself.
