## **History**

### Kit

Shelly was born the latest in his litter, but was the biggest one among them. Cats in ShadeForest all thought Shelly would make a great stalker when it came to his time. When Shelly started to understand things, he also learnt about how his clanmates had high expectation for him. Shelly tried to ask Blizzard Star to let him start training sooner than three moons, because he thought he would had a special treatment if he was the son of the leader. It didn't turn out well, Blizzard Star even dislike Shelly for this. That also made him jealous of Shadow, who were

Shelly accepted the fact and tried to ask the apprentices, Smoke Moon and Lizard Eye, for some tips. But what Smoke Moon and Lizard Eye said about kittypet stopped him from having further discussion and everything that's about two of them. And the fact that his siblings didn't care much about other cats' gossip disrupted him even more.

Shelly liked Pink a lot, much more than his siblings. He looked up to her because he heard of stories she told, about the wide, salty lake has no end, the journey in a monster's belly, even the lake of flame. Shelly also asked Pink to teach him what she knew, but Pink was a survivor, not a stalker he wanted to be. Pink's knowledge about wild herbs and living was fun to Shelly, but he thought those weren't going to make him the stalker cats talked about.

Raven Fly noticed Shelly and volunteered to teach him by herself. Shelly hadn't met his three moon to have a mentor, but since Raven Fly wasn't Shelly official mentor and didn't bring him out of the camp, Blizzard Star said nothing about this.

### Apprentice

Raven Fly was assigned to be Shell Teeth's mentor liked everyone thought how it'd go. When cats wondered who would be the second mentor, Blizzard Star announced that Raven Fly would train Shell Teeth alone. Shell Teeth were happy that he were going to be a stalker, although it hadn't been decided officially.

After getting proper training, Shell Teeth were getting close to his goal, becoming a top stalker. He was said that he were one of the best ShadeForest had. Until he met his sixth moon, which mean he would have to start his battle lesson properly.

Wolf Pelt and Feather Heart were busy with their training, Shadow had medicine cat duty. Even though their relationship was far from good, Shell Teeth still missed their time in the nursery. When they have time gathering together, but most of the time they just listen to Feather Heart talking. Shell Teeth liked to hear Feather Heart sharing his days though he thought most of them are stupid.

Shell Teeth almost failed on every fighter's battle exams, led to Smoke Moon and Lizard Eye's mocking again and again. Shell Teeth sneaked out of the camp every night to train secretly, practicing battle moves on a tree trunk near the camp. He was knocked out by a branch and passed out one night, waking up finding himself in the Darkforest. Shell Teeth heard about Darkforest's tale from the elders, but Petal Dust's words convinced him. Shell Teeth believes Petal Dust's "It's all for your clan." and started training with cats in Darkforest and some cats in other two clans.

Shell Teeth witness his mother's death with his brother, Feather Heart. He was pushed under a bramble bush by Feather Heart when dogs attacked the patrol. Pink didn't make it. Shell Teeth insisted that he helps carrying Pink's body, mourning by her side since they arrived at the camp. When night fell, Feather Heart finally joined, Shell Teeth scolded him. Saying that how awful and heartless he was, telling him to get away because he didn't deserve to mourn for Pink.

In Darkforest, Shell Teeth was one of the quickest learner, picking up each clans special skills and some other from outside the clans. His head opponent, Jagged Spots from HillsLeaping, was the main reason why Shell Teeth went more and more brutal in real life. To Shell Teeth, what Jagged Spots said, "I will become the leader of this place and ruin the Darkforest so that no cats will suffer.", is nothing more than a joke. But what Jagged Spots had had Shell Teeth couldn't take it less serious than he wanted to.

Shell Teeth started to train tirelessly, day and night, day after day. He were getting better on battling and even better on his already wonderful stalker skills. But the lack of sleep made him grumpy and he'd done the daily duty of apprentice terribly that he often asked Feather Heart to cover it up for him. Shell Teeth only wanted to spend his free time sleeping instead of listening Feather Heart talking, which made Feather Heart ask more questions about it. Shell Teeth just yelled at him, making their talking always ended with an argument.

One gathering, he and Jagged Spots were talking about the training in Darkforest, and Feather Heart came by. How Jagged Spots talked to Shell Teeth triggered Feather Heart, since he didn't know what happened between them. Feather Heart picked up a fight with Jagged Spots, Shell Teeth tried to stop them, but the elites came to end this fighting before Shell Teeth could protest for them.
