    Briarkit clung to the wall of the gorge with her claws. She didn't know how she got into this mess, the last thing she had been doing is just looking over the gorge not near enough at all to fall in. Unless... Unless she was pushed.... Not dwelling to much on that she opened her mouth.
    " Help!!!!!!!!!!!" She yowled







    Shadowkit smiled to himself as he lay in the nursery. His goodie-goodie sister was gone and he was alone. Good he liked it that way and the best part was that he had left no trace, not even a scent because before he had rolled in a pach of herbs and after coming back to camp he bathed in a river. It was genius, his sister was gone!!!

    Cinderpelt dashed towards the edge of the Gorge. Seeing the kit, he leaned forward as far as he could, only to see that he was unable to reach her with his mouth. He tried again with his paw, got it under the kit and slowly pushed her up until he could grab her by the scruff. He pulled back and placed her on the ground. "Are you alright? You know kits are forbidden to go near the Gorge" he meowed. He wasn't really angry, more something like worried.

    " I...I was just looking. I wasn't close enough to fall down there. I don't know how that happen! I know I'am not suppose to be out here my brother talked me into exploring. I am very thankful you saved me. Thank you!" Brairkit rambled on still terrifed that that happened.

    The warrior didn't move as he listened to the explanation. He shook his head as he sat down. "It's alright, I only did my job", he meowed as he glanced at the Gorge. He had seen a lot of cats here and he wondered why kits liked being around here. "Let's get you back to camp. And you better stay in the nursery den from now on or you might still end up down there", he meowed as he grabbed her by the scruff. He padded back to camp, careful not to swing the kit too much.

    The tom arrived at the camp and walked into the nursery. He placed the kit back on the ground. "Alright, there you go. Now where's your mother?" he asked the kit as he looked around. He wondered if someone had even seen her leave.

    Shadowkit saw his sister and Cinderpelt enter camp and frowned before putting on a fake smile.
    "Where was Brairkit, Cinderpelt? Mom and I were looking everywhere for her!" Shadowkit asked already planning something else to get rid of his sister and Cinderpelt.

    The warrior glanced down at the kit. "At the Gorge", he simply replied as he examined him. "Looks like you're back safe and sound, Brairkit. Why don't you two go to your mother?" he meowed kindly before softly shoving the she cat forward. Something was very wrong... Wasn't Shadowkit the reason of Brairkit going out? Then how did he not know where she was? He shook it off and watched the small reunion on the two kits.

    Shadowkit smiled at Cinderpelt again before heading towards the nursery with his sister.


    Goldstripe (their mother) walked over and saw the two kits.
    " Thank you!" The queen said smiling

    "No problem, I just did my job", the warrior replied with a faint smile. "Try to keep them inside next time, she hung to the wall of the Gorge..." he whispered in Goldstripe's ear as he glanced at Brairkit. "Good luck", he finally said with a smile and turned towards the camp entrance again to continue his hunt.

    Goldstripe looked at him wide eyes and then to Brairkit.
    " Into the nursery Shadowkit, Brairkit." She said an followed them into the nursery.




    Shadowkit snuck out that night to prepare for his next plan. All he needed now was for the river to rise just a little more then he would be rid of his sister and that warrior, Cinderpelt.


    Brairkit slept undisturbed by her brothers leaving and coming. Unaware of what he was planning.

    Cinderpelt was sleeping peacefully in the warrior den, unaware of what was happening. The red tom had no idea what he was going to do the next morning, but it probably had something to do with the plains or the Gorge.

    Shadowkit looked down the gorge and smiled. The water was just high enough that they most likely wouldn't die from the fall, but the water is what Shaodwkit was counting on, then the stream would leave Brairkit and Cinderpelt's body else where. He turned to the right and went over to a two leg trap... Thing and pretended to have his leg caught in it, of course it was disabled but he had to blooding for it to seem like it was real. He waited until the sun had risen before he started yowling like a kit.


    Brairkit woke up to a empty neat where Shadowkit should have been. She remembered last night he had slightly woken her up to tell her he was going out to explore. Her brother could be lost! Or worse! Going out of the nursery she followed his scent out of camp. Smelling the scent of blood she started into a run and saw Shadowkit trapped in a two leg trap that she knew was strong enough to brake a branch.
    " Shadowkit! Are you alright?" She asked
    " I...I think so." Shadowkit replied and waited till Brairkit was examining the trap before he twisted around and grabbed 4 poppy seed and made his sister swallow them.
    "Shadowkit what did you do?" She asked feeling the seeds already take effect. Soon she was fast asleep.


    Shadowkit smiled and dragged his sister to the gorge and threw her in. Changing tactics he hid the two legs trap in a rosemary bush and cleaned the blood slightly before racing back to camp
    " Help! Help! My sister fell in the gorge!"

    The red warrior was enjoying his meal as the kit stormed in. "Again?" he asked as he stood up. He had warned her and she would stay in camp! "I'm going to have a look", he meowed and rushed out of camp towards the Gorge. "Now where did she fall..." he mumbled as he looked over the edge.

    "Wha..." the warrior felt his front paws go over the edge and hissed as he fell. He quickly turned and tried to slash his claws into the wall, stopping right above the water. "So he was the reason of her falling down..." he thought as he watched the water below him. He then jumped in, knowing he couldn't climb the sheer cliff and he still had to find Brairkit...

    Brairkit had woken up slightly when she hit water and had been using her claws so she wouldn't get carried away by the current. She looked above her and couldn't believe Shadowkit was behind every thing! Her own brother. When she saw Cinderpelt fall in the water she waited till he came back up
    " are you alright Cinderpelt?" She asked

    The warrior slashed his claws into the wall again, covering the kit. "I'm fine, but we'll have to continue until we reach a spot where we can get out of the water", and with that, he grabbed her by the scruff and slowly moved forward. He grinned as the currents tried to make him loosen his grip on the wall but he held on, for Brairkit's sake.

    "Calm down, Brairkit. We're still alive, right? I promise you that I'll bring you back to camp", he meowed softly to calm her down. With that, the currents slammed him off the wall and he came into the water. He quickly grabbed a small rock and made sure he still had Brairkit in his jaws. "This is going to be wild..." he mumbled and he let go off the rock. The water swept them away and the warrior swam as good as he could, keeping the kit's head above the water.
