Even the coldest need company, and one of the colder BloodClanner toms was on the
prowl. He was a young age of twenty-one moons despite looking much older, and he
wanted some kits of his own to boast about. It didn't matter to him who the mother was,
just so long as she was strong, protective, and didn't bite his ear off at every turn. He
would prefer it to be someone he liked--she would be the mother of his kits, after
all, and he would like to be able to see them--but he would make do if it so called for it.
Silver flashed through the grass blades as the lithe tom made his way back towards
camp. His name was Silverscar, something very fitting for him seeing as he was a silver
ticked tabby with scars all over his body. He had a scruffy look to him, with his fur matted
and sticking up all over the place, and he appeared to be, well, angry. Not that he was,
mind you. He always looked that way except for when he was in battle or dealing with
kits. He was an excellent fighter, and he thought he would make an excellent father as well.
That thought made him laugh a bit to himself. Not because it was an incredulous idea, but
because it made him think of his father. The dark grey tabby had seemed very fatherly,
and perhaps he was a good father, but Silverscar could hardly see him in such a way. After
all, Darksnare (Silverscar's father) had murdered his mate right before his son's very eyes.
And that was hardly a fatherly thing to do. Of course, the murderous tom that had witnessed
said crime wasn't much better himself seeing as he had taken his own father's life shortly
after becoming a warrior.
But that wasn't the topic of what was going through the silver warrior's mind. He was instead
thinking of how he would definitely make an excellent father and how he only needed to
find some she-cat willing to have his kits...
