THE STORY
Aleksei and Ruth have been close friends for several moons, but something about their relationship always went a little deeper. Their Clanmates saw what they could not admit to themselves, the two possessed feelings for one another. Eventually, when they both came to terms with these emotions, they were too scared to admit it to the other for fear that the other would want to remain as friends. However, on a whim, Aleksei decided to admit his feelings for Ruth and in turn, she confessed to him that she also felt the same way. Now the young couple is navigating what it means to be in a relationship, and this has resulted in an accidental pregnancy. Aleksei and Ruth are inexperienced, but will do their best to be good role models and parents for their kits. They will work hard to keep a strong relationship between themselves, their Clan, and their new family.
However, this does not end in a happily ever after for the couple. Not quite. Aleksei is the key to a long-awaited battle between the Dark Forest and StarClan. Shortly into his relationship with Ruth, he will realize who he is and that he has other commitments he must keep. As much as it will hurt him to leave her, Aleksei's destiny is to save his mate from several past lives from succumbing to darkness and taking over the forest Clans. This false prophet's name is Current of Steady River, who is the present Stoneteller of the Tribe of Rushing Water. Once Aleksei realizes its his duty to save his mate, he will break things off with Ruth. This does not mean the kits will be abandoned, however. The young couple will do their best to raise these kits even if they are no longer a couple. Shortly after all of this, Ruth will end up happily ever after with a WindClan apprentice named Cinnamonpaw. So, it may not end happily in the sense that their parents remain together, but these kits will lead happy lives in BloodClan.
