Prologue
"We need to get her, whilst she's still a helpless kit,"a white she-cat hissed.
"Patience, Violetslash,"a one-eyed tom meowed,"We need to wait for Ashwing,"
"Well, she's taking an awfully long time!"a brown and ginger tom retorted.
"Hickorypelt..."the one-eyed cat shot him a warning glare.
Hickorypelt shuffled his paws,"Sorry, One-eye,"
They were in a dark, misty forest. No moon and no stars were seen up above, in the black, inky night sky.
"Greetings,"a small yellow she-cat emerged from the shadows.
"Good night, Ashwing,"Violetslash meowed.
"Very good indeed,"Ashwing sniffed the air,"Have you three thought of anything?"
"What? To get the kit?"One-eye asked, "Well... we thought bribery might wor..."
"Bribery!"Ashwing laughed,"Since when have we used bribery?"
And to think, I've been here a shortest amount of time!
"No. Only cowards use bribery. We need...hmm...,"she paused, licking her lips,"We can haunt her into it,"
"Haunt her into it? What does that mean?"Hickorypelt echoed.
"It means that if every night we bring her here, lost and trapped in the darkness she'll want nothing more than freedom. We can say 'You will only be free if you destroy the Clans',"
"But...she won't be free,"Violetslash pointed out.
"And that's the point of lying," Ashwing exaggerated the word 'lying'.
"You can do it. We won't,"One-eye hissed and the trio stalked away.
"Do you think I need you?"Ashwing growled.
Violetslash paused,"Aswing, we are the ones who killed your mother and the kits,"
"Yes Violetslash, but I am the one who did the actions, made the plans, died for our glory,"Ashwing snarled,"I don't need you,"

Dotfur fidgeted in her nest. She gazed down at her four kits, already wriggling.
"Aww...they're so cute!"Splotnose purred.
"Yes, they are,"she murmured.
"What should we name them?"
"Hmm...well the yellow tom's fur is like an apple...so how about Applekit?"Splotnose asked.
"Perfect...I'd like to name the grey and white she-kit Frostedkit. It looks like ahe used to be grey but then she was covered in snow,"Dotfur yawned,"And his name,"she flicked her tail to the birch patterened tom,"Is obvious...but I feel I want to name him Breezekit instead of Birchkit,"
"Okay then..."he studied his daughter. When he looked at her, he saw that she had strange, orange zigzags on her face.
"Hey, look at those!"he exclaimed.
"Aww...that's adorable!"Dotfur purred,"Ha, why not name her Zigzagkit?"
"Zigzagkit, Zigzagpaw...no,"Splotnose meowed,"I think...Dandelionkit,"
