[atrb=background,http://i559.photobucket.com/albums/ss40/Milkyface4455/Table2-1.jpg] Kalen walked along the cement trails of a den, as of at the moment, he had a wound on his left shoulder from a fight with Zepherd. Him and the crow were fighting over the feud the tom had with Shadowclan, after all Kalen's mate, Star, her sister was the medicine cat of that very clan. Kalen remembered being an apprentice and coming to see her a few times when he was injured, which tended to happen a lot with the reputation he had. Even Crescentpaw's mentor specifically said he was an omen, which lead the clan to believe he was bad. So him and the crow weren't exactly on good terms, both of them seemed to have to blow off steam now, which left to tom to walk here, to try and find some herbs he knew to heal his wound, though he hadn't really paid much attention, so he didn't know much. Kalen's malicious looking purple eyes searched the area, he was bothering to scent anything, so the tom only yawned showing his sharp saber fangs. He plopped down in the dirt and rolled onto his back. Looking up at the sky. Starclan, what am I thinking? Kalen thought, blinking as his muscles relaxed against the pavement. What was he really doing?

Star was worried about Kalen. He had been missing for a while. She had seen Zepherd but Sora had said Kalen was no where to be seen. So she sent her hawk in search of him. Finally she could see her racing back. "Star I have found him fallow me." After speaking she raced back off. Star raced after her friend. When she found him her eyes widened. He had a large cut. She ran forward and pressed her muzzle into his shoulder. "Are you ok what happened? Why isn't Zepherd here with you?"

---

Crescentmoon sighed, ever since Foxstar and her announced to the clan she was pregnant. She needed time to think. She had left the clan territory and headed for part of the twoleg area that belonged to the rouges. She didn't know why she came here. She became lost in thought. Until the figure of a cat appeared in the distance. She froze in fear thinking it was Thorn coming back for more. She began to shake in fear. When she saw another cat run up to that one her fear doubled. Two against one was not good odds. She heard the one cat cry out. Apparently they where a couple. She sighed with relief she didn't think she had anything to worry about. The females voice sounded familiar. She looked sort of familiar to but she couldn't remember why. She continued to walk towards them. The closer she got the more she thought she knew the tom. But that couldn't be. The only rouges she knew where her mother and sister and that foul beat Thorn.

[atrb=background,http://i559.photobucket.com/albums/ss40/Milkyface4455/Table2-1.jpg] Kalen hadn't expected Star to show up, not while he wanted to be alone, but then again, she had a right to be worried, after he had heard about Thorn. The black cat watched as the like colored she-cat pressed up against him. Kalen was truly an idiot, as his eyes flickered he sighed and forced himself to turn around and lift himself up. "Zepherd won't be around for awhile, I'm fine, beside's it's only a cut." he stated. When suddenly a scent that he knew all too well hit his nose. Shadowclan, made his fur ruffle up as he felt a hiss rumbling in his throat. He backed up next to star as he starred to try and find the source of this scent. After all Kalen didn't exactly have the best reputation with them. "Show yourself" Kalen yowled. Though the pain in his shoulder continued. He cringed, trying to use Star for support. If he didn't find the right herbs, it could get infected and he knew that feeling all too well. Kalen wanted to heal the wound as soon as possible. His purple eyes scanned the area, as he used his power, he realized it was Cresentmoon, but to be sure, he was going to wait.

[♥Angel♥]

Star sniffed the wound than gave it a lit. "We should still find some herbs for it. It could get infected and that wouldn't be good. I've known cats who died from a severely infected injury." Star brushed her muzzle against his. "I don't want you to die." Star was taking by surprise when Kalen hissed and his fur spiked up. Why was he acting like that? When he cried out she realized a cat was around. She scented the air and got a strong whiff of Shadowclan. "I wonder who it could be?"

Crescentmoon wasn't that far from them. In fact if that tom had bothered to even look he would have seen her. But she did as he told. She walked towards the tom and stopped when she was three tail lengths from the two cats. Yes the tom definitely looked familiar. "Ravenpaw?" No it couldn't be he was dead. That had been one of the worst times for her. Crescentmoon had considered Ravenpaw to be one of her closest friends in Shadowclan growing up. He had been the first friend she had made their next to Stormfeather. But he was more like her brother. She looked the tom over and she purred softly. "It is you Ravenpaw," she cried out softly and ran the few steps towards him. Her eyes alight with joy. "I thought you where dead. Why didn't you ever tell me you where alive. Who's your friend?"

[atrb=background,http://i559.photobucket.com/albums/ss40/Milkyface4455/Table2-1.jpg] Kalen never did understand the apprentice in his younger moons. She had been so intent on talking to him, sometimes he did speak to her, and she was so intent on being kind. Though Kalen hadn't thought about it after the event of Thunderclan attacking Shadowclan. He had kept his distance as a "dead" cat. Though, she had grown, a lot more then he would think, then again he had probably grown as well. Kalen relaxed himself, but fear obviously there when he was called by his old name. Kalen raised his head, maybe he could blow it off. "My name's Kalen, Not Ravenpaw, and why should I tell you, I'm not exactly friendly to clan cats." Kalen hissed in the back of his throat. He slipped a bit on his shoulder, falling over to Star. Obviously the pain was getting worse. "Damn bird" Kalen whispered to himself. As he used his Yusu again, he wanted to find out what the cat was doing here, he concentrated on Crescentmoon. Energy flowing to and from him from her mind. When it came to his realization, she has bearing the kits of Thorn. Kalen's anger for the tom just built up even more, it wasn't Crescentmoon's fault obviously. Yet, as he stopped, he slipped down on his paws. Cursing under his breath in anger to the point.

[♥Angel♥]

Star arched an eye and looked from one cat to the other. "Ravenpaw? I'm sorry I think you have the wrong cat." She was so confused about this she didn't even realize this cat standing in front of her was her sister. She stepped forward and sniffed the cat. The cat smelled like herbs as well as Shadowclan. But there was also a familiar scent buried under all the other scents. The scent was one that belonged only to her sister. It was a scent she hadn't smelled since her sister ran away. "Crescent?" Could it really be her sister. She looked just like she would imagine her sister would look like when grown up.

Crescentmoon glared at Kalen, she glared only a four times in her life. Once when her mentor was calling Ravenpaw several nasty names. She had stood up for him. The second time was when Thorn attacked her. The third and forth was the other day. Towards Foxstar and than later towards the clan. "This whole time I thought you where dead. You know how many times I looked for you in Starclan hoping to be able to talk to you? You where my best friend. Yea you where grumpy and mean at times. But I didn't care. And now I find out you have been living as a rouge this whole time. Ravenpaw how could you." By now she was practically screaming. She turned and snapped at the female now. "No I have the right cat. Ravenpaw past member of Shadowclan. Used to be my friend whom I thought was dead all these moons." When the female cat called her by her old name she took a closer look at the cat. "It's Crescentmoon now how do you know my old name?"

[atrb=background,http://i559.photobucket.com/albums/ss40/Milkyface4455/Table2-1.jpg] Kalen was stuck now, this was a confusing situation, his eyes flashed when he realized how it had effected Crescentmoon, and even more so what had happened with Zepherd. The tom wasn't only a little bit pissed of, he was in pain and weak. Kalen stood up and pushed forward, sniffing over Crescentmoon. "Are you sure your alright? What's shadowclan thinking of this, surely they had to have done something, Knowing the way Foxstar is" Kalen was frantic as to say, he didn't realize what had happened. Then his eyes hardened. "This is star, my mate" Zepherd sighed for a moment, this was exactly the situation he didn't want to get stuck in. He stopped and sat back, though still weak, there wasn't any choice in thinking about it. "Crescentmoon, this is your sister Star, Star this is Crescentmoon, I was part of Shadowclan until the last leader pulled me off as Dead. Basically I grew up with your sister." Kalen coughed after, trying to situate himself to be comfortable even though it wasn't exactly working. "Shadowclan basically saw me as a bad omen so they kinda kicked me out when thunderclan attacked, then the leader saw me 'dead', Crescentmoon, that cat Thorn, I....I'm sorry" Kalen stated lowering his head.

[♥Angel♥]

Star blinked he was a Shadowclan cat at once. Just as she was about to ask him about it he introduced the two cats. "Crescentmoon oh my god it's you. Finally I have been looking for you for so long. Sora told me your a medicine cat in Shadowclan. I was planning on going there tomorrow to find you. Mom is dead you don't have to hide from her any more."

Crescentmoon purred softly, "I will be fine things are tough right now." When Ravenpaw introduced his mate as Star. She realized who she was before he told them they where sisters. "Star it is a pleasure to see you again. And I am not hiding from mother. I stopped hiding from her a long time ago." Just than the scent of blood reached her. She looked at Ravenpaw and her eyes widened "Your hurt," Crescentmoon looked at the wound and sniffed it. "This is bad lay down I'll be right back." Crescentmoon jumped over a low wall and into the garden of an old twoleg house. She found was she was looking for. She wound cobwebs around her tail and kept it held high. She than plucked several Dandelion plants. As well as Marigold. This would have to do. Scrambling over the wall she ran back to Ravenpaw. She unwrapped the cobwebs and pressed them to the wound. She made sure not to use it all. After making the wound stop bleeding she chewed Dandelion up and squeezed the juice into the wound. "The dandelion is for pain. While the marigold is to help heal the wounds." After put put the paste of marigold over the wound she wrapped more cobwebs over it. "There that should do it. Just be careful and don't move around to much."

[atrb=background,http://i559.photobucket.com/albums/ss40/Milkyface4455/Table2-1.jpg] Everything that happened so fast kept Kalen in place, as usual the she-cat was quick to the point and got on with it. Though he couldn't say he enjoyed it, he kept still and after she was done, he just wanted to in the laying down position for ever. Kalen's purple eyes searched the sky, though he was surrounded by cats, it seemed like Zepherd was the only bird he really connected with. The crow wasn't anywhere to be seen, hopefully he came back but him and Kalen weren't exactly on good terms as it seemed. The tom finally flipped himself over and stood up starting to walk down the block, rather he didn't care if they followed him, he would end up ignoring them. More or less he needed some time to think, and with all this going on Thorn was pissing him off all that bit more. Knowing Shadowclan they'd take care of their own. Yet, then he thought about how he was their own and the leader just left him to die. He dragged his claws into the dirt for a quick moment at the thought. What had he ever done to Shadowclan, and what did he get payed back with. Thorn was the target at the moment, but Kalen was going to ignore him more or less, it was Kalen had to recruit more members, or the entire plan of having the Kurai mansion to use would not work out. Where are you Zepherd? Kalen thought sitting down and curling his tail around his back paws. His eyes drifted to the side as he spotted a small sparrow. He walked over behind it, standing tall and only waiting for the creature to notice him. "Ahhh, don't eat me please!" Kalen rolled his eyes. "I have no interest in the sort, now, have you seen a Crow, perhaps circling the clans territory?" Kalen lowered his head, piercing the sparrow with his intense purple eyes. The sparrow didn't give him an answer before flying off. The tom was becoming to be worried about the crow, that was odd.

[♥Angel♥]

Crescentmoon watched Ravenpaw walk away. "Sis I would love to talk but I need to talk to Raven... err Kalen alone." Turning she ran after Ravenpaw. She didn't even look back at her sister. She was just so happy to see Ravenpaw again. As soon as she caught up to him she jumped in front of him. "Ravenpaw wait, why did you leave? Why did you keep the fact that your alive and.... well considering the injury that is. After your disappearance I searched for you. I refused to believe you where dead. I knew how much the clan disliked you. But you where my friend. My best friend even if you don't remember that fact." A deep sadness she had kept tucked away for so long filled her eyes. "Please Ravenpaw."

Star watched her sister run away. She growled angrily she spent her whole life looking for her sister and now she wants to be left alone with her mate.

[atrb=background,http://i559.photobucket.com/albums/ss40/Milkyface4455/Table2-1.jpg] Kalen remembered it all, how he had been left in the dark, as if, he had nowhere else to go he thought the clan rejected him, he felt drawn to the city blocks. That was where, he found some of the misfits he fit in with, where his more malicious side was free to do what he wanted. Kalen had finally felt like he belonged there, he would rather be in that place, then in one where so many cats didn't want him. Then, then that tom, that ravanous blood thirsty tom, came along, and killed his new family, even a she-cat he had taken to dearly, one who was soft as she was dirty on the job, Kalen had taken the name of her beloved brother for that reason, though it's been moons since then, and he found star and created the kurai group, Thorn was still running around, and what he had done to Crescentmoon, it was just the past all over again to torture his lost soul. Kalen looked up as she asked this question, he turned himself to position a very serious look on his face. Kalen used his Yusu, and rather telling something he could not tell, he made her feel, and see all that he had went through, though he left out the gory and intense parts, he still showed her inside of her head what had happened to him, and....who had done it. "Times like these, Starclan had a different path for me it seemed. I have no intention to rejoin Shadowclan, I know it used to be my home, and I will love my birthplace forever, but my malicious nature would never count towards it in any beneficial way. I don't tell the clan how to live my way and they won't tell me how to live my life. I fell in love again, I found someone that I understand more then I do myself, and I'm sorry, but it's a decision I will stick by Crescentmoon." Kalen spoke with clarity after he had shown her what he wanted. The tom looked to the sky, and hovering above was Zepherd, though he knew the crow was listening, it was best not to bother the bird. Kalen came forward finally and pressed his head against Crescentmoon. "The kinder side of me is only saved for those who need the truth Crescentmoon, know this, that I will never be as kind hearted to any cat, as I am to you and your sister. I mind Shadowclan, and Shadowclan minds me, it's the way I choose to live by, and it won't change. I've killed a lot of cats, for fun even and that would get me clearly exiled anyway, a heart that's blackened over has no spot in a clan, and I would feel out of place as ever. Crescentmoon, you could say your sister saved me from my own demise, but then again, it's always the same for a cat that kills." Maybe Kalen was trying to make the she-cat understand something. That though he left Shadowclan, things would not change how they were today. The tom enjoyed the rush of killing, it was a factor he believed to be true, and he knew none of the clans would sit right with his beliefs, neither would Starclan. Though if Starclan chose to forgive his nature in the end was beyond him, he would accept whichever punishment, but you can't tell someone how to live their life can you? Kalen closed his eyes for a moment, feeling a little weak from using the Yusu in such a way, the effects were always the same when using a transfer of event. As he slipped at his paws the crow zoomed down and caught his master. "Clumsy as always" The crow clicked his beak as Kalen used the bird to lean on. Kalen gave a smile and looked back at Crescentmoon. "What the lad is saying, you can't very much tell a bird how to live it's life like a cat, and you can't very well tell a cat to live like a bird.". Kalen stood for a quick moment, but Zepherd stayed close in case he collapsed again. " Zepherd says, 'What the lad is saying, you can't very much tell a bird how to live it's life like a cat, and you can't very well tell a cat to live like a bird.'" Kalen repeated the birds words, knowing that Crescentmoon herself wouldn't understand the bird tongue the creature spoke in about.
