# *PROLOUGE (O.1)*

a wisp of sand traveled across the harbor. the white tomcat lifted his eyes to the moon, it was never his journey to become a moonwatcher but he defied science. he narrowed his eyes at the moon, it was a full orange moon, to the WinterMeadows harvestmoons weren’t the greatest, anyone to name their kit, *harvest moon* would be a forsaken mother and their kit would be token away and killed, the mother would also be wounded. actions have consequences you know.

the tomcat let out a chuckle, his eyes lifted to the harvest moon. he was a moon watcher. a good one at that.

# CHAPTER ONE (1.0)

Blaze watched her kits play in the grass, Her daughter, Ulysses always listened, but her son, Norman, was unsure and quiet. She hated Norman, he disgraced him for being half jumper. *Jumper’s are useless, just like my ex-mate.. Leap.* She thought, The name was like Postion to Blaze’s mind.

”Hey Momma.” I pad up to my mother, my white ears were to big for my tiny head to the plopped on the side of my head. “Can we eat now? It’s almost meal time right?” I didn’t know time very well, but I was *starving!* My stomach grumbled as I asked her.

My ears drooped as I got closer to my mother, I looked up at her and nervously meowed.

Blaze grabbed a piece of prey and gave it to Ulysses. “None for you. Only good kits get prey.” She hissed at the tiny tomkit.

I sighed and looked up at my mother, my stomach was growling loudly now. Ulysses was happily chomping away at her food, she was a good Kit. I wasn’t. “But Momma! Please, I’m so hungry!” I whined, looking up at Blaze with a hungry look.

“Like I said.. No! Now scram you worthless piece of junk!” Blaze snapped at the tiny tomkit.

My ears pin as I look up at my mother, her teeth were bared.

My ears went flat as Blaze hissed furiously. “Momma! Please!” I whined louder, staring as his stomach roared, “I’m sorry Momma!” I said, my voice shaky and upset. Blaze’s ear twitched, Norman really was useless.

Blaze’s ear twitched a bit at Norman’s upset look, but soon he was forgotten as Ulysses finished her food. Blaze sighed to herself after Ulysses was finished, before turning to Norman.

“You can eat now, if you want it, Norman.” Blaze said reluctantly, still hating the fact Norman was her son.

My ear’s twitched as I grabbed a small vole. *Why did mother hate me so much?* I pondered as I ate the vole. It tasted like sand in my mouth. Not even a juicy vole would heal the fact that my mother hated me.

While I was eating, I kept glancing up at my mother. She looked away, she hated him. Why did she hate him? Maybe it was because he was part jumper. He was pathetic… That’s what Blaze thought at least.

My ears went flat, maybe Blaze was right, I am really a worthless failure.

I finished my vole quickly, but then my stomach growled afterwards, clearly still wanting. My ears drooped again, this time in sadness and anger. Blaze was clearly right, I am a worthless kit… Maybe she was right. I was bad. Maybe not even the stars wouldn’t take me..

I set my head on my paws and sigh, I then drift off to sleep.

# (1.3)

I wake up a few hours later, I smelled horrendous!

My ears perked up, that smell was terrible! I looked around and noticed the smell was me! *Oh no, what do I do?* I thought, remembering my mother clearly hated me. I felt like I was in trouble.

Blaze sniffed the air. Then she looked at Norman. “You stink!” She exclaimed.

I tilt my head, I hadn’t cleaned since I ate the vole last sunrise. “I guess I haven’t washed.” I mew

My sister looked disgusted. “EW!”

I flinch as Blaze looked at me in disgust, that really stung. I wanted to go cry under a bush somewhere, but I felt really bad now. Blaze, however didn’t seem like she cared in the slightest. She was too busy tending to Ulysses.

I stalk away. My mother didn’t care where I would go. I’m running away.

# (1.4)

*Hahaha! Well actually I don’t know where I’m running to. I’m gonna talk to VENETE, he is a ex-kittypet who knows so much about the clan cats and kitty pets! I’m gonna go talk to him!*

I thought I padded over to where VENETE was sitting, the brown tomcat looked up from his washing. “What do you need Norman?” He asked in a semi-settle voice.

“Well, where do you come from?” I ask.

Venete raised a paw to clean his jaw. “Well I come from a kittypet home, we were surrounded by a forest with cats in them.”

I look at him questioningly. *This is interesting!* “Tell me more!” I mew.

He nods and explains the whole situation. After that he looks at Norman. “Oh why are you wanting to know this stuff by the way?”

I felt guilty, but I said nothing. “I’m just making a erm- report! Yeah that!”

Venete nodded slowly then he turned back to his washing. “Now scram, your mother will have your hind if she sees you talking to me.”

I nodded and leaped away.

the night came quickly.

I snuck out.
