    Eaglekit managed to sneak her way out of camp once again, her white pelt tingling with excitement. "Let's see, I think today is a good day to go to Sunningrocks! The warriors always say its a great place!" The kit bounded to Sunningrocks, looking at the gorgeous view in front of her. She could see why Riverclan wanted this place so badly, it was the perfect combination of peace, harmony, fun. The river below her was calm and peaceful, nothing could seem to go wrong.


    Dark, thick clouds formed overhead. A slight whimper came from Eaglekit's throat, what if she got caught in the storm?

    The rain suddenly began to pour hard. Dynasty emerged from the forest after a few minutes, and at the sight of the helpless, shivering kit, he had an idea. This will get those idiotic Thunderclanners out here, he thought. He walked boldly up to the kit. "Are you lost?" he said gently. "I'll show you back home!"

    Eaglekit nearly jumped at the sound of Dynasty's voice. He didn't smell of Thunderclan, but then again it was hard to smell anything in the pouring rain. "Oh, no, I'm good, I was just out for a stroll..." she slowly backed away, scared of this loner. Her paws began to slip on the rock, this rain was giving her any advantages.

    Dynasty smiled, looking endearingly at the helpless kit. "Are you hungry? Come on, down to the river, we'll catch some fish. It's easier in the rain, they wash up." He had no idea what the truth was, but this kit would probably believe anything. Without hesitation, he guided the kit down to the water, ignoring any futile struggles, and shoved the kit roughly towards the river.

    Eaglekit glanced down at the river, it was hard to spot anything with all this rain. She shook her pelt, trying to rid herself of some moisture. "How can we catch any fishies when the fishies are all scared of the rain?" The white she-cat looked up to Dynasty, noticing the menacing glare in his eyes.

    Dynasty stifled a small laugh at the kit's remark. "The fishies love the rain," he lied. "Here, why not try catching one?" he leaned the kitten precociously near the water.

    "Okay, alrighty then." Cautiously, she placed one paw into the murky water. Her paw seemed to freeze as she violently jerked it out, she was chilled to the bone. "No way mister, I'm not going in there, its freezing cold! No fishy would swim in water that cold!"

    Dynasty sighed. "Why don't I just cut to the chase?" he said. "Let's see… do you like fishes?"

    "Well sure I do! Lots of people like fishies!" she responded in her upbeat attitude. But, a shiver ran down her spine, something was not right with this scenario. "I...I think I hear my mama calling me, I should go back to the nursery." Slowly, she tried to back away from Dynasty, and shortly made a quick dash hoping to make it home free.

    Dynasty lashed out, dragging the little white she-kit back to him by her back legs. "You said you like fishes? Would you like to be a fish and swim underwater?" He took the sweet and friendly tone out of his voice. He was sick of pretending. "You're a long, long way from the nursery, little kit…"

    Eaglekit wailed desperately, she just wanted to go home. "Razorkit, help me!" she wailed. Her fait was in the paws of Starclan now, but the tiny flame of hope inside her was fading fast. Eaglekit lashed out and bit Dynasty's tail, biting harder and harder with each tick of the clock.

    Dynasty hissed, whipping his tail out of Eaglekit's mouth. "You're going to get to be a fish. I've always wanted to be a fish… you're quite lucky, little kit. You know that?" And without further ado, he flung Eaglekit into the river. The current quickly carried her away. "I love causing mischief," he murmured to himself with glee.

    Eaglekit gasped for air, her little head slowly sinking under the water. "HELP! PLEASE! SOMEONE!" she managed to cry between repeated sinkings under water. Her little paws flailed around, trying to find anything to grab on to. Her blue eyes brimmed with tears, this would be the end of Eaglekit forever.


    OOC: Ok Riverclan/Thunderclan cats...SAVE ME!!

    "Help! Please! Someone!" Dynasty mimicked—a little too loudly, he would later reflect. "Enjoy your swim!" he called out. I love watching little kittens drown, he thought joyfully. It helps with my anger issues.

    Mudpelt had been walking in the rain, he wanted some time for himself. Then he heard a kit's cries, he looked around and saw a white body bobbing in the water. "Hold on!" he yowled and ran to the river.

    Dynasty saw the cat coming, and grinned. "Why hello there! What are you doing?"


    OOC: Is it alright for Dynasty to throw him in the river too?

    Eaglekit thought she heard Mudpelt, but couldn't tell over the roar of the water. She desperately searched for something to grab onto, anything to hold her steady for a little bit. As she raced through the river, she spotted a large boulder on the side of the stream. The white kit managed to grab onto it and cried, "HELP!! HEEEELP!"

    Dynasty sighed. His work was so hard. And it was for the good of all cats, too! "Shut up, damn kit!" he shouted over the rushing of the water. "He isn't going to save you." He turned to face the rapidly approaching Mudpelt.

    Rivereye had been planing on fishing. Despite the rain, Riverclan needed food. But then she heard the frightened cries of a kit and saw her struggling in the water, "Hold on! I'm coming!" she yelled to the frightened kit. Then she leaped into the icy water, she tried hard to swim against the current, but it was strong, and she ended up just downriver of the kit and had to swim upstream. Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed a rouge, Maybe he had pushed the kit in. Well, there was no time to deal with him now, she needed to save the kit. She swam furiously, but was still moving very slowly.


    OOC-Dynasty could jump in if you want, it's really up to you. And sorry it took so long for me to post, there were some computer issues yesterday.

    "Hold on! I'm coming!" Dynasty saw Rivereye swimming out towards the kit. Really, why haven't I learned to swim? he thought sullenly. The boulder wasn't far from shore… I think I can jump it, he thought. He braced himself and made the jump easier than he thought he would. He almost slipped on the wet rock as he bent down, face to face with the terrified Eaglekit. "Go on now. Swim, little fishy! Splash, splash!" He easily shoved Eaglekit off the rock, but as he turned to jump back to shore, he slipped and fell into the water. "Help!" he cried for a moment, until he realized that saying "help" was stupid around these cats that would sooner let me drown. He began to struggle towards shore, slowly being swept downstream, in the direction of his home.
