Maplebreeze's back story

Maplebreeze is currently a member of Auroraclan. She is a very Kind, wise and gentle cat who is very emotionally in-tune with others. She can also be a complete weirdo with people she is close to X3.
The yowls of fighting cats echoed in the wind, the cries of kits carried even further. Maplebreeze raced through the ferns leaping over tree roots, her heart was pounding as she raced toward the cries of her clan mates. "No no no.." She burst past the bramble bushes only to be greeted by a scene she had only seen in her nightmares, the bodies of her fallen clan mates littered the ground more than half of her clan was dead and the others were struggling to survive. The attackers fought like nothing she had ever seen, they merciless they wanted blood. She should have seen this coming the was on border patrol but some how they managed to slip past her, this was her fault... She looked around desperately for her parents but couldn't see them amongst the fighting, she prayed to starclan that they were ok. The sounds of her younger litter mate's yowls caught her attention and she bolted after them, they were only apprentices there was no way they would be able to defend themselves from this band of rogues. When Maplebreeze found her brother and sister they were working together, fighting off a large she-cat. They were keeping her at bay but they were already badly injured, she let out a yowl of anger and lept at the rogue she-cat. Suddenly a large body slammed into, her she felt large claws dig into her sides and a large paw press against her head. She struggled desperately but the large maincoon male held her down, his claws beginning to dig into her scalp, He leaned down his sour breath reaching her nose. "You're clan is weak they deserved to die," a raspy chuckle escaped his jaws. "I'm guessing these two are important to you? Haha good you can watch them die!" His paw pushed harder against her head as he forced her to watch the she-cat take down her first litter mate "Maplebreeze! please help me!" her sister cried in pain before going silent. "AMBERPAW!!" Maplebreeze yowled and thrashed desperately as the she-cat turned her attention to Maples brother. He snarled defiantly as she attacked him, he was dead before he was able to lift a paw. "Boulderpaw!.." Maplebreeze's eyes stung and her throat hurt from her cries, the large male let out another raspy laugh before raising up on his hind paws, "I think I'll let you live little mouse, that way you'll never forget" He slammed down against her head and everything went dark. When she awoke the bodies of her family and clan mates were the only things that greeted her. She was alone and broken, she sat there in a daze as she kept vigil over her clan. As was their custom.
-Sometime later-
She was in a daze, her eyes stung, her head hurt, she hadn't slept in days. Her paws were cracked and bleeding, she hadn't eaten in who knows how long, Maplebreeze was in such a daze that she almost didn't notice the snow beneath her paws or the icy wind blowing through her fur. She was getting weaker by the moment and the winds were beginning to pick up Maple was struggling against the icy blast. She couldn't keep going... Maple collapsed where she was, the snow coating her fur, her vision was going blurry and she was going numb, but she could swear she saw the outline of a few cats. "Ha... I guess they came back to finish me off..." her eyes closed she had no fight left in her, she was drifting off into unconsciousness, she could barely hear the murmurs of the approaching cats...
Maple felt warmth for the first time in a long time and the smell of herbs surrounded her. When she opened her eyes she was greeted by a rust-colored she-cat, "oh you're awake, thank goodness we thought you were a goner." Maple tried to sit up shakily, "w-where?..." "Whoa whoa whoa, easy now don't push yourself you need to rest," the rusty she-cat placed her tail gently on Maples back. "You're safe now you're in Auroraclan territory, My name is Rustwhisker I'm the clans medicine cat. Our leader Skullstar and our Deputy Shadowfang will be here soon to check on you". Maplebreeze glanced at Rustwhisker uncertainly as she tucked her paws under her chest, Rustwhisker gave her a reassuring look when two new cats padded into the den. Maple was taken aback when she saw the black and white she-cat, she wore a large skull over her head which is something Maplebreeze had never seen before and something that scared her. But the look in the she-cats eyes made her feel somehow safe. "I am Skullstar stranger and this is our deputy Shadowfang." Skullstar flicked her ear toward the large black tabby male with grey stripes, he carried the same reassuring look as Skullstar. "what is your name stranger?" Skullstar sat in front of Maple. "I'm Maplebreeze, I didn't mean to intrude on your territory... I-I really didn't know where I was... or where I was going..." Maplebreeze looked down staring at a dried up piece of herb with a broken look in her eyes. The three cats looked at one another sensing her pain and coming to a silent agreement, Shadowfang stepped forward, "Well, you are more then welcome to join our clan, we are rather new but we could use more warriors and it seems like you could use a home."Skullstar stood and nodded her head, "we would love to have you." Maplebreeze looked up, surprised by their warmth and kindness, she sat up carefully looking at the cats with gratitude happiness swelling in her heart, "Thank you so much... you have no idea how happy this made me, I would be honored to join your clan." Skullstar nodded her tail swaying softly, "we are glad to have you Maplebreeze, Rustwhisker can show you around once you are feeling better." Once Skullstar and Shadowfang left the den Rustwhisker began looking Maplebreeze over, "Well then lets hurry up and get you all better! I can't wait to show you around, it will be nice to have a new face around." she purred excitedly. Maplebreeze couldn't help but purr happily she was so glad to be able to start her new life with Auroraclan.
