It was moonhigh, and the silvery light from the shimmering stars and moon above made Shatteredsoul's white and black fur glimmer. He trudged through the tall grass which made up Riverclan's territory with two little bundles in his mouth, held by their scruffs. The tom kit was white with a black tail and paws, and quiet wails of fear escaped his mouth as he swung from his father's jaws. The other was a golden she-cat with a white chest and chin. Her fur eerily glowed in the pale light. They both had a name: Darkkit and Honeykit. Shatteredsoul had made sure that they knew their names before he had taken off with them to abandon on Riverclan's territory. It was the least he could've done to leave them with something from their parents. The rouge found a spot that was commonly traveled through by patrols and gently placed the siblings down. Though they had opened their eyes, they were both too young to remember much besides their own names, so they most likely wouldn't remember this night at which they were abandoned. Gently, he curled up around both of them and started to lick the two, but then he heard the sound of paw steps near by and knew it was time to go. "Good bye, young ones. We will see each other again, I promise," he whispered to them before he stood up and bolted away, disappearing into the night.

He didn't know where he was going or why, only that this cat was taking him somewhere safe. Nonetheless, Darkkit still wailed in fear as he was carried and then placed down onto the hard ground. He missed the comfort and warmth of his mother. His eyes of blue and gold looked up at Shatteredsoul as he licked him and his sister, then watched as he darted away. Then the two were alone. Darkkit's wails arose up again, echoing through the night and sending chills down anyone's back who heard them. No trace of Thunderclan scent remained on Honeykit and Darkkit, not even the slightest bit. They only reeked of rouge.
