"Are you going to come too? I mean, I'd like to see what you can do with your magic." Lily touched some snow, and it rose up, almast in a tornado-like fashion, as Lily leaped into it. The winds got stronger--obviously not enough to pull at anything, but enough to hold her up. Then, she pushed her paws outward, and the snow dispersed, like it was coming from the clouds.

The cats at the park looked at the snow in awe, wondering where it came from. The sky was perfectly clear, so it was a thing to be curious about.

"I like making others happy. Okay? Don't judge me." With that, Lily leaped into a tree, and headed toward Rose and Scerbs by bounding tree to tree.

Pasts's (?) eyes widened.

"I didn't know you could turn into a cat too!" His voice went from a whisper to a loud laughter in once short sentence.

"I always thought you were a wolf. However, I ask that you get whatever piercings are on you. The earrings can stay, though. They resemble your eyes a lot, and must have a lot of meaning." Pasts would let Fatal write this part of the story.

Olivia looked right into Snowstar's eyes.

"You're lying. You asked for a particular part of our name. You'd ask about our entire name if that was all." Her eyes flared with an energy that even Olivia did not know she was capable of possessing.

"We'd like to join, though." She told the leader.

"What? Olive, we didn't discuss this!" Alicia whined.

"Ali, we don't know how long we'll be like this. We may have no choice, at least until the Colonel finds us, one way or another. Also...." Olivia leaned toward Alicia's ear.

"Ali, did you notice Thunderclan's Colonel? He looked a lot like that Roy guy in the legend books.....except in cat form....." Olivia told Alicia, making sure only she heard.

"Yeah, you're right..... Is it a sign, Olivia?" Alicia questioned, using the same volume. However, an a word and a phrase slipped out of tone: You're right and sign.

"I don't know. But we should stay here, just in case." Olivia told Alicia, once again making sure no one heard her.

"One request....may we keep our names? It's a name we carried with honor at our old home, ma'am." Olivia hoped to Truth that Snowstar would let them keep their names. It'd be like losing a part of their souls.....not literally, of course, but still.....it would be strange, being called whatever-paw or something.

(No, I mean Lily raced out of the building, went to the park a five-minute walk away, and is coming back. Sorry for not clarifying, unless the whole city is in one building. ^-^)

Lily slowly poked her head back into the building, and then entered. She saw Rose gabbing on to Scerbs, and some sort of craziness with facepawing and 'bye Lil and Rosie'. She wanted to hiss at the she-cat. Lil was the name she called Lily. No one else. It signified a close bond between the siblings and she felt no one else had a right to the nickname unless they were kin.

Lil felt the exact same thing, and as if by telepathic connection, the two of them glanced at each other, at the same time, with the same expression. It was strange, their resemblance to each other, because if you looked really closely, their emotions flared in the same way. Their fur was the same length, they had almost the exact same outfit on, which was a long, flaring red dress. The only obvious differences were the just-barely-visible different shades of their fur, and they style it was worn in. Lily had decided to keep it in a flurry of curls, and Rose kept her fur in smaller curls, making her look like a purple rock compared to Lily, who looked like a cloud.

Lily and Rose followed behind them.

"Wait! We forgot! Yesterday was the last day of our school-time. May we travel with you?" Lily asked.

"What she says is actually true, despite me being twelve and her being fourteen. Please. We'd like to help." Rose meowed.

"Also, there's that thing about Lil--" Lily gave a sharp glare.

"Cl--Ice threatened to tell them, we minus well!" Rose tolf Lily.

"Well, about a few moons ago, we were learning magic and all of that, yes? Well, out teacher told us to never try to revive someone. Weeeellll....we.....kinda didn't follow her advice, and we kind of stepped into God's terrain." Rose told the cats.

"And, well, let's just say we got what we deserved." Lily meowed bitterly, eyes hard as stone.

"Lil, don't get like that! You know what'll happen!" Rose whined.

"We managed to get Rose back to normal, but the same couldn't be done with me, so I stay the way I am, an evil form and......well.....the rest you'll have to pull out of my body when I'm dead." Lily stated coldly.

"Lil, I didn't say you had to tell them your exact problem." Rose mewed.

"Yeah, well, I didn't. I didn't tell them the last part." Lily hissed.

The two of them started to get into an argument, and the two of them were chasing each other in circles around the group.

If any of the older cats knew better, they'd scold them. Or not. Lily didn't like to be ordered around. She wasn't used to it. But that was kept between Rose and Lily, and was never told to anyone, only discussed between the two of them and anyone where they worked.

Rose and Lily stopped and raced to him.

"Oh? You don't believe us, then?" Lily asked. She started to tug at one of her legs, and eventually the fur came off.

"Lil! You said--"

"Enough of what I said!" Lily scraped off the last of the fur--and it was fake. Lily stood up on two paws, and touched the elevator and the metal on the walls started to rust over. The elevator came to a creaking stop.

"Lil!" Rose tried to call, but Lily's rage had gone too far. A dark shadow started to surround her; her sur started to spike, and she started to change color. Her eyes resembled a wall of stone, in the way of which they were emotionless and hard to read.

Lily could no longer hear Rose's pleas.

Shadow was back. The black she-cat with the blood red accents smirked.

"You didn't believe Lily? Do you believe her now, little kitty? Yes, you are a little, silly kitty." She hissed with a cold, laughing tone to it. The she-cat, now Shadow, dragged her paw across the fake limb, and a blade came out of it.

"You're lucky. I usually kill my enemies slowly. You'll die fast though." Shadow was planning to push him off of an elevator, but she was unaware he had wings.

"Get to the door. Now." She ordered, pointing the arm-blade at Scerbs's throat.

Rose just stared at Scerbs. She started mouthing something, forming a few sentances.

Just jump. You can fly. Then you run. Please. Do what she says. I did say she was temperamental. Rose's eyes looked at the tom pleadingly. She felt so....so horrible..... Lily said she'd stay the way she was, for Rose to get back to normal.

Well, that didn't get them anywhere much in this situation.

Soul's eyes flared at the thought. Why would Sun even ask a thing like that? He whispered the answer to Willow.

"He says the other stays prisoner, and gets an additional year added onto their prisoner time. Rations would be cut by half, which means they get food every other day. They won't participate in any celebrations we have. They have to stay in the camp at all times, and if they try to run, they get killed, as well as the cat who tries to help them escape, if any at all. Execution methods? Well, we could tie their tail to a tree branch and let the falling eat them. We could slit their throat the old fashioned way. We could snap their neck if we had a strong enough cat. We could drown them in the lake at the end of the forest, or in the river, which is closer. We could give them foxglove, or a small amount of deathberries. Must he go on? He also says that Leaf that is Sweet and Path of Strange Shadows may go and supervise them, as long as they don't let them know they are there." Willow finished her sentence and sat down again, waiting for the competition to finish.

(@ Dreamer12: Did you post on Winter thread? Sorry, I'm just.....bored. XD

And, also, Lily is the scary, evil Olivia. I just realized that. O___o)

Shadow's eyes flared.

"Lily is not here right now." Shadow's voice still had that laughing tone. Her eyes mocked Ice.

"Why do you call yourself Ice when you use fire, darling?" She asked mockingly.

Rose looked up to Claw, Ice, whoever she was called.

"Ice--please. Just don't! She'll kill you!" Rose plead. She didn't know that Claw's abilities matched Lily's almost to exact.

Pasts tilted his head.

"Your mother gave you some earrings, didn't she? I wrote most of your story. Fox-dung, stupid Purpose, still evading my control." He hissed.

"Why you can do what? Shape-shift? Well, maybe it's something about destiny. I haven't quite figured out your complete story, and I don't want to screw it up, so I just kind of left it for you to create. I'll be practicing my Purpose on other creatures, thank you very much." Pasts laughed again, unaware that the ghoul was nearby.

(Add some of the humunculi (sorry, may not have spelled right) into the story? Just asking. They could ally up with Tigerstar. XD)

Olivia was about to glare at Snowstar, but remembered her place. She was a top rank, apparently.

"Is there anything you need right now?" Olivia asked, rather casually to Blackclaw. Maybe he was reincarnated. But she didn't know. How would she know that? She couldn't, so she would at least attempt to trigger any sort of memory.

"Olivia, why are you acting so casual? We just got here." Alicia asked.

"Al-li--" She meowed, putting an emphasis on the first syllable.

"I'm just trying to warm up to these cats. If we're going to be here, we minus well take orders in a way they may do so. Thunderclan seems a bit more accepting, as of now, so my tone probably wouldn't hurt relations with the cats--would it?" She asked, turning to Blackclaw, looking into his eyes, as if curious about the actual question, like a normal fift--um, eight month old cat would be, rather than what she was testing out.

"Olive! Stop pestering the cat!" Alicia cuffed Olivia over the ear, which ended up with Olivia retaliating with a small hiss. She was trying her absolute hardest to not use alchemy at that moment, and if cats could be red with anger, Olivia's face would be like a tomato. She quickly calmed herself as quickly as it had come though, and she and Alicia padded out of the den. They started to talk while the deputy and leader were in the den.

"What's first? Battle training?" Olivia asked Alicia.

"I don't know. But, hopefully they know we aren't afraid of a few claws and fangs piercing our skin." Alicia purred.

"Also, who was that cat?" Olivia pondered.

"Who was that what?" Alicia replied.

"Who was that brown cat? She seemed pretty excited to see us. Hopefully she's not associated with...." Olivia went silent. They both knew that if they were turned into cats, Lust and Envy and all of the others could have been as well.

They both held the silence, which was so fragile and delicate that even the sound of a claw tapping against rock could break it.

(Hold on....I thought they were in a forest? XD)

Pasts hissed silently as he smelled a cat nearby.

"Who is it?!" He yowled. Then he turned to Fatal again.

"You have a little....friend? At school?" He meowed, his whiskers twitching in amusement, trying to see if Fatal would blush.

(yeah, we could both make the prophecy! I'm horrible at starting though. The last one I tried to make I had to wait at least a half an hour to think of it, and the prophecy was still crap. Line by line maybe?)

Simon poked the chaffinch with his tiny paw.

"Um.....are you going to cook it? You know, with fire?" Simon asked, his voice raspy. He looked up, his eyes a bit brighter from the water. He waited for the cats' reactions; it would certainly tell him how they could have gotten into the Tribal stage of evolution without the vital tool used to stop disease and famine.

(I probably don't have the fire information right, I just remember A, B, and C class. So don't blame me for inaccuracy. XD

Anyways.....maybe there's an earthquake, and the cats have to find a new home? Not sure, it's pretty cliche, but I'm out of ideas as of now. DX)

"You....don't control fire? The tool that stops disease and famine and keeps you warm in your dens at night and helps you get rid of sickness in your food?" He asked.

"No, I didn't hit my head, by the way. It's just.....hard to explain." He mewed bitterly.

"Yes, there can be accidents from it, but there are way to control it in which you have never imagined. Class A fires are usually started by plants; they can be drowned with water. Class B fires start from something like cotton, the stuff humans make their....pelts out of. Those can be smothered with a paw if small enough, or maybe a blanket of moss if they get too big. Class C fires you wouldn't run into, those are from copper wires, which only humans use. Those have to have air cut off from them in any and every direction, so the oxygen, which makes them burn, doesn't fuel it anymore.

And that's just how to get rid of them. You can prevent them from getting out of control. You could place big rocks around a fire to make a fire pit, and throw some wood in the middle. Then you can ignite it.

Then, you've got your fire, less of a chance to set on fire, and a way to stop sickness from spreading." Simon then started to draw in the dirt.

"This is an oxygen molecule. This is a fire. When the two react...." He drew another diagram.

"The fire keeps burning. To put it out and control it, you have to determine where it came from, then decide weather to use water or get rid of the fuel." He attempted to summon up the whole speech on fires in a way the cats would understand.

Pasts eyed the cat, making sure it didn't do anything funny.

(It's complicated. The metal is Lily's fake arm. The rest of her is still your normal fluffball. She used her magic to make her arm a blade.

So, no, she is not a 'Transformer'. She has a fake arm that is made of metal. :p)

Shadow poked her head out of the elevator, to make sure the rust hadn't worn off, to see it was on the next floor, with a cat showing her friends. She muttered under her breath about other cats disturbing her.

"Hello! I'm Shadow, Rosie's cousin. This cat and I were just....talking." She stated.

Pasts still sat, watching the kitten while he waited for Fatal's reply.

Pasts was still a bit suspicious. He would watch a bit more, to see if this really was a kitten. If it seemed so, he would try to talk to it, see where it had come from.

Simon nodded excitedly, ignoring the resting part with no regard to his health.

"Hmm.........I need some sticks.....and some pebbles...." He raced over and started take little loose strands, just big enough for him to carry, off of the bramble wall, and set them in a pile. Then he gathered some pebbles, and set them around the tendrils. The black kitten then grabbed two nearby sticks. With a little of effort, he managed to get them in his paws, and he rubbed them together quickly, and sparks started flying. The sticks made the brambles burst into flame, and Simon grabbed the finch, and held it by the fire. It didn;t take long to cook, because the finch set on fire, and Simon threw snow over it, and the fire pit.

The tom took a small bite. Finch wasn't normal. It wasn't normal for a person.....but it was normal for a cat, and he instantly dug into it, even though it was slightly....toasted.

(Twolegs. Building an oil mine. They have to go on a journey. What next? Hmmm..... Maybe since Simon seems to know things (the second/first post I made, which you probably forgot) without any warnings from anyone, maybe he foresees a kit falling down a waterfall of oil in his dream. He tries to save it, but he wakes up right before he misses the paw. It's on his mind, and wonders what it could mean.........?)

"I cooked it, Pantherkit. It's how I used to eat food." Simon pushed the finch over to Pantherkit.

"Please? At least try it before you get scared?" He asked. He was pretty full now; he hadn't eaten that much in.....probably one-hundred years, at least. Besides, it was almost Christmas, and he felt like sharing something. Speaking of sharing..... He little kit darted out of camp, humming Jingle Bells.

"Dashing through the snow, on a one-horse open sleigh....." He stopped, picked some pine, and carried it back to camp. He weaved the long piece of pine through the top of the entrance of the camp, with the pine bending down a bit so the cats would be able to see it.

"Jingle bells! Jingle bells! Jingle all the way!" The tom seemed really happy as he sat down, waiting for Pantherkit to try the burnt finch. This time of year always made him happy. He hoped he could make the cats feel the same way.

Pasts walked up to the kit, and nudged it with his nose.

"Little kit. Where are you from....?" He asked hesitantly.
