By the time Takashi was five,he wanted to crossed his border. Even though he wasn't suppose to,he wanted crossed. So when his father,mother,and brother were fast asleep at Midnight,he sneaked out of his cave. He sneaked passed the other caves in his clan and then...he finally got to the border. Takashi looked back to look at his entire clan one more time. Then,he stared at the his border and took a deep breathe. He put one paw over and then crossed. He ran far away until he was in the meadows.

  Takashi hopped around in circles with happiness. He was finally out of his clan. Manna had told him that he wasn't allow to cross the border until he was a teenager. It upsetted Takashi the fact he had to wait until he was fifteen years old in order to cross. It meant he had to wait another ten years in order to cross the border. It meant by the time Takashi turned thirteen,Anubis would have already be old enough to cross. It was so unfair.

  But instead,Takashi was the first one to cross the border before his older brother. If only Anubis were here to see Takashi in the meadows. If only his classmates from Omega School were here to see him. Takashi hated his classmates. They always bullied him about being the young sibling of Anubis. They always treated him like the runt of the litter. Treated him like an outcast."I'll show 'em. I'll show 'em all!"thought Takashi.

  He ran passed the meadows and until he found the tree bridge. He ran towards it and jumped onto it. He tried not to fall as he marched on the bridge. He was having a great time. He then saw another meadow up ahead and ran towards it. He ran through the meadow of bright skye blue flowers,hopping from side to side as he tried to catch fireflies. He was having so much fun that he didn't see where he was going.

  He tripped over a branch and rolled down a hill. He soon stopped rolling and fell on his face. When he opened his eyes, he noticed he was in a wolf's territroy. That's when he noticed that he was in...WindClan territroy! Takashi scrabbled to his feet and ran until he was back at the tree bridge. He was breathing fast and so was his heart."*Pant*Thank goodness* Pants*mom and dad*Pant*aren't here! I'd be dead!"thought Takashi. He took a deep breathe and then started for home.

-Two Years Later-

  It was before Sun Rise and Aleu had just woken up. She was now seven years old and so was Takashi. Koi was now eight and Anubis was nine. She limped outside the cave and stood on the edge. She looked at her entire clan from up above. She liked the fact that her cave was above all the other caves. And the reason why she liked it was because she got the most amazing view of all time. She took a deep breathe as the wind blew in her face. Then,a Blue-Jay flew in front of her. She smiled at the bird."Well,good morning, Skye!"she said. The bird tweeted happily before she flew back to her nest. She smiled and limped back to her cave. She limped to her big brother and started to nudge him. Takashi was doing the same thing to Anubis back at ShadowClan.

  Both boys groaned and turned away from their young siblings. "Koi,wake up! Wake up!"Aleu whispered. Koi still didn't move. "Anubis! Get off your lazy butt, now!"shouted Takashi as he shook his brother. They both groaned again and stared at their siblings."Aleu,its not even Sun Rise yet.*Yawns*Go back to sleep"said Koi as he closed his eyes,again."Arghh! Go away, Takashi!"groaned Anubis as he put a paw in Takashi's face and pushed him away. Aleu stepped over her brother until she was standing on top of him. She nudged his cheek with her nose and he stared at her.

  Her ears flattened and she gave him the puppy eyes."Oh-no! Anything but the puppy eyes!" said Koi as he tried not to look into them. Aleu then started to whimper and her lips started to quiver."Oh-no! Not whimpering and the lips---Arghh! Fine,I'm up! I'm up!" groaned Koi as he put his paws over his eyes. Aleu smiled and started to hop around in circles. Takashi thought for a moment. How was he going to wake up his brother?"*Gasps*I know!"he thought as a smirk appeared on his face. He turned around until his behind was facing Anbuis's back. Then... *Squish!*."Takashi! Get off me, you little brat!!"shouted Anubis from under Takashi's rump. Takashi laughed."Not until you get up"asked Takashi as a smirk appeared on his face.

  "ARGHHH!! GET OFF ME,YOU ROTTEN LITTLE BROTHER!!" yelled Anubis. Manna walked up to her boys and smiled at her  son."Takashi,get off your brother, now"said Manna. Takashi nodded and got off Anubis...very slowly. Once he was off,Anubis growled and pounced on Takashi. The two rolled on the ground and Anubis bit Takashi on his shoulder. Takashi winced at the pain and clawed Anubis. Manna tried to separate the two, but she couldn't.

   Then,Kerchak came and broke up the fight. Anubis growled at Takashi and Takashi stuck out his tounge."Rotten brother!"shouted Takashi."That's enough!! Takashi, you are grounded for a month!" shouted Kerchek. The pup stared at his father."Kerchek,Takashi was just playing around"said Manna as she walked up to her husband. Kerchek ignored her and stared at Takashi with anger before walking out of the cave. Anubis followed behind his father.

  Takashi growled before he ran out of his cave."Takashi,come back!"shouted Manna. Takashi ran all the way to the waterhole. Takashi sat down and stared at his reflection. He frowned when he saw it was only of his reflection showing. What made him so different from everyone in his clan? What made his older brother so special? Then,he heard someone nearby. He looked around."Anubis?"he said. He got up and looked around, again. But he didn't see anyone. "If you're trying to get pay-back by scaring me,it won't work!"he shouted. Then,he saw figures in the shadow. They moved closer to him and then he noticed that the figures were pups.

  They all had smirks on their faces. Takashi growled at them and they circled around him, while one walked up to him. "Well,well,well!*Chuckles*If it isn't Little Runt,Takashi"said a male pup as he stopped in front of Takashi. Takashi snarled and got into a pouncing potion. "What's this? Did we suddenly get a hint of courage?"said the pup and he flicked his tail in Takashi's face."What do you want,Tanka?!"yelled Takashi.

  Tanka stared at him before he smirked."A little birdie told us that your father pick your older brother over you. Then again, who wouldn't"said Tanka.  Takashi growled and pounced. But,Tanka moved out of the way and Takashi fell on his face. Tanka the others pups started to laugh as they gathered around him."*Growls*Leave me alone!" shouted Takashi as he scratched his claws across Tanka's face. Tanka stared at Takashi with anger with a scar now on his left eye. Takashi stared at his paw. What did he just do? Tanka launched himself at Takashi.

  They rolled on the ground and Tanka bit Takashi's neck. He yelled out and shoved Tanka off him. Tanka walked up to him,put his paws on his chest,and pinned him to the ground."Listen here carefully,Fuz-ball! You may be the prince of ShadowClan,but you're nothing but a worthless pup. And that's all you'll ever  be!"shouted Tanka as he shoved Takashi harder into the ground. Tanka and the others started to laugh as they walked away. Takashi got up and ran. Back at WindClan,Koi was playing tag with his friends Tani,Bira,Zuba, Chuli,Chuli's brother;Loki,and Mala at the waterhole. Aleu and Chiku were also going to the  waterhole to see Ruba,along with Aleu's bird friend;Skye."Mama Ruba!"yelled Aleu as she ran to her grandmother.

  Right when Aleu was going to reach Ruba,she tripped over her crippled leg. But,Ruba caught her just in time."Careful,little one" said Ruba with a gentle smile. Aleu laughed."Thanks"she said. "So,what brings you here my little miracle?"asked Ruba as she layed down on a rock near by. Aleu looked at Skye before looking at her grandmother nervously."Well,I just uh...I just wanted to spend time with my grandma that's all"said Aleu. Ruba stared at her grand-daughter."Oh sweetheart,you know I adore your company, but...you need to play with pups your age"said Ruba as she nuzzled her. Aleu's ears flattened and she frowned.

  "Ruba has a point,honey. Why don't you run along and go play with your brother and his friends?"said Chiku. Aleu stared at her mother before staring at the ground. She played with the dirt before answering."But--I'm an outcast. I'll only slow 'em down"said Aleu. Chiku stared at her pup before nuzzling her. "You're not an outcast. Besides, what's the harm in trying?"said Chiku. Aleu stared at her mother before she smiled."Your brother is just down by the pond" said Ruba. Aleu smiled at the two wolves before she ran off with Skye flying next to her. Koi was chasing Chuli. He pounced and pinned her to the ground."Tag! You're it,Chuli!"said Koi as he got off her.

  She chased after him and the others. Koi dodged her pounce and jumped onto a rock near by. Then*Bump!*someone had bumped into Koi. Koi shook his head and felt someone on his back. He turned to look and he saw...Aleu."Sis?!"said Koi as he countiuned to stare at her. Aleu stared at her brother."Koi?! I'm sooo sorry!"said Aleu as she got off her brother and then helped him up. Koi stared at her before smiling."*Laughs*No problem, sis! What brings you...*Stares at Skye*and Skye...down by the pond?"asked Koi with a kind and loving smile.

  Aleu stared at Koi and thought for a moment. But,before she could answer,Koi's friends came. "Hey,Koi! What's taking so long?! Are we gonna keep pl--"said Tani,but she stopped. Koi and Aleu turned around to see six wolf pups walking up to them. Skye sat on Aleu's shoulder. They all stared at Aleu."Hey,Aleu!"said said Loki as he bowed down in front of Aleu,along with his sister Chuli. Aleu kept staring at the other pups."Oh-no! Don't tell me you invited the Three Legged Wonder!"said Mala as he stared at Aleu with disgust. Koi stared at him then at Aleu. "Well,I--I-I came here on my own. I-I just wanted to join you guys"said Aleu as she cut Koi off. Mala walked closer to her.

  "Yeah,well you can't join us, Fur-face!"he shouted."Face the facts,Aleu! You're nothing but a useless,cripped wolf pup that will never belong to the pack!" shouted Bira as she joined in. Aleu whimpered and her ears flattened."Yeah,you may be the princess,but you're a disgrace to this clan!"said Zuba. Koi snarled and got between the two."For your information,she is not a disgrace!"shouted Koi."Oh please, Koi. You know that everything we said is true"said Tani. Loki growled and stepped right in front of her."You're wrong!"he yelled. Mala and Zuba growled at Koi and Loki. Chuli stood in front of Aleu."Fine! We'll just go and have fun by ourselves!"said Bira as she led Tani,Mala,and Zuba away. Koi just scoffed.

  As if he cared where they went. He turned around to look at Chuli and her brother."Thanks,guys"he said. The two pups bowed down to him and he walked passed them. He stood in front of his little sister."You okay?"he asked. Aleu stared at him. She stared at Skye before she ran away from them."Aleu,come back!!"shouted Koi with Skye flying by his side. She ran all the way to the border. She stopped only to look back  before crossing her border.
