Fur... my fur is lushes and beautiful. I'm not a tabby with gorgeous stripes, no. Mine is much more then that. Instead of stripes, I have black edged spots all across my back, leading to black striped legs and tail.

The beautiful color of the fur under the spots is what draws other in, though. It a golden brown that is darkest on top and gets lighter as it goes down my full frame and finally ends at my white underbelly that follows down to the inside of my legs as well as the end of my tail. Some think I should have been named Leopard-whatever instead because I look so much like the legendary cats.

My ears are slightly larger then others, and always standing up as if I am always alert for danger. But I also have excellent hearing from them, so who am I too complain? My eyes, the last thing to tell you about, are a gorgeous amber color. Some say they look almost like rubies... but when I'm in battle or just mad, some of my enemies claim that my eyes turn to a blood red. And in this time, it scares other because of the battle with the Tribe we had not too long ago where all there eyes were a Bloody red.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

I'm very loyal to my Clan but also to my kin. My normal attitude is caring and sensitive, always looking out for the weaker cats and protecting who I can. I love my Clan more then myself, no can question my loyalty.

...until lately. My kind and caring attitude has been covered by a mask of anger and hatred towards my... father. My siblings and I have been plotting against him and I have felt rather angry at the thought of that beast. But much sorrow, too. My younger siblings in BrightClan suffer with no protection because all others are too scared to fight Windystorm or tell on him when they have little to no proof at all.

I am loyal to my Clans, but at the moment I can't help but put my siblings first. We have to stop him before someone gets killed, and I just hope its not one of us. That's what I'm scared of too. A death. Seeing the dead body of someone I love because of us or because of him.

Parents

Mom and dad. I hate them. Both of them. Mom never once cared for us after dad took us from her to live in his Clan. You see, dad was Windystorm from EclipseClan, while mom was Raccoonmask from BrightClan. Both were apprentices at the time, almost warriors.

They fell in love somehow, I never heard the story on it, but Windypaw somehow got Raccoonpaw to have their kits in EclipseClan territory and then took us away to live in his Clan where we were given to a Queen named Sungazer. But he claimed to have found us near the Clan border. Never once did he visit us or even look at us with love in his eyes.

Kithood

My kithood was the only part of my life that I ever really did enjoy. I was a kit without a care in the world loving all and everything, looking forward to becoming an apprentice and then a warrior. Life always seemed to be perfect when you became a warrior, respected by all looked down by none, got to go to all the big battles and possible become leader of the Clan.

Like any other kit I got into plenty of trouble. One time, with Rainkit leading us, we snuck out of the camp just to take a little walk in the territory and we almost got eaten by a fox. Luckily there was a patrol of Warriors around looking for the fox. But newly named Windystorm was in that patrol and I truly thought that he could kill me just by looking at me. I was so scared of him that one of the other warriors had to carry me home, saying the fox must have given me a real heart attack.

Apprenticeship

Not too long after we became apprentices I was wishing I could go back to the nursery and just become a kit again. No it wasn't because the duties were too hard it was mostly for her brother, Rainpaw. His mentor found something wrong with everything he did and even if their was nothing to complain about, Windystorm gave no praise.

It took almost all of our apprenticeship, but we found out why he hated us all so much. He took us out of the camp one night, saying he had to tell us something. When we stopped to listen he started on about why he hated us. Because we were his kin. He never wanted kits like us, Rainpaw being a calico tom, Tortoisepaw being too cheeky, and I... I was too sensitive.

I started crying. I cried and asked him that why didn't he tell us sooner, why did he wait so long. And secret I asked myself why did he have to be like this. He lashed out and called me more names until Rainpaw couldn't take it anymore and attacked him. How long the battle lasted, I wasn't sure. I only remembered Windystorm had left and found Rainpaw comforting me with Tortoisepaw keeping watch as the other warriors took us back to camp. That night we were made warriors by Amethyststar. I was named Wavedancer, my sister became Tortoiseclaw, and my brother, Raincatcher.

Warriorhood

As a kit, a warrior was everything I ever wanted to be. Now I see how naive I was. As a warrior you sometimes wish you could just be a kit again to get away from all the duties and worries. I find myself wishing that I still believed Sungazer was our mother instead of some she-cat in BrightClan that I've never meet before. I keep asking why did she give us too that monster, why didn't she join the Clan with us?

Many moons of peace later when I had finally gotten them off my mind Raincatcher came to me with news. Our horrid parents had kits, three toms and two she-kits. Rare anger flared up in me as he continued telling me that it was rumored the kits were being neglected and abused. I knew we couldn't let them suffer at the paws of that monster but at the time being we had no choice. It wasn't like we could waltz in BrightClan camp and say 'Oh, we heard our new siblings were being abused, can we see them?'

After six moons of worry, we finally got our answer. Raincatcher came back from a gathering with news of three of the five scrawny, ragged, and abused kits. We couldn't allow it to happen any longer, they had to be stopped. Raincatcher spoke of driving Windystorm and Raccoonmask away, I thought was should invite the apprentices into our Clan, and Tortoiseclaw thought was should just kill the two, end all problems here and now.

What ever happens, StarClan help us. We're going to need it.
