() BoneClan () Part 1 () Fight for Survival ()

Silver began bristling. "He has hurt his own kin. Danger approaches." she whispered, her voice filled with fear.

"Don't!" Bonestar cried, as Scratch started wrestling Scarheart to the ground. "Get off him!" She snarled, lunging and tackling Scratch off of her mate. "You. Don't. TOUCH. My. CLAN!" She snarled, batting him hard.
"Bones, why don't you come back! We're related, you're a kittypet, you shouldn't be leading a Clan!" Scratch snarled. Bonestar winced.

Spottedmask stared at them with wide eyes. She was unable to move.

"Bonestar has EVERY CAPABILITY TO LEAD A CLAN!" Scarheart defended and stabbed Scratch in the underbelly.

Spottedmask stood up ready to fight.

Eagleheart looked at Bonestar then Spottedmask.

Scratch snarled, and fell to the ground. "Where are they?" He demanded. Featherkit then came out to sit by her mother. "C'mon Featherkit! Come to dad!"
"no."

"Back off, little girl," Scratch snarled, scraping her and then coming closert to Featherkit.
"No," She said again, firecer this time.

"She doesn't want to be with you, Scratch. And ya know what?" Scarheart smiled, but kept his guard up. "She's right."

Amberfeather curled her tail over Featherkit, glaring at Scratch. "Don't take a step closer. Or I'll show you that little trick again." She growled. "Featherkit can stay here. Whitekit. Ggrayki. They don't belong with a rouge that will harm them." She hissed.

Scratch hissed, crouching down, his tail flicking. "I am their FATHER, I have EVERY right in the WORLD to take them back! I wouldn't hurt them, I wouldn't, I swear." Scratch said, eyes wide. He had sort of a split personality problem, he was slightly insane.
Bonestar's tail flicked curiously, sighing. She loved her brother, but he was such a idiot sometimes.
"would he hurt us?" Featherkit asked her aunt.
She shrugged. "I'm not sure, nothings ever for sure with Scratch."

Silver began growling louder. She was tense.

Amberfeather looked at Featherkit. "Not really. But in a mental way." She answered.

Featherkit stared at Scratch, cocking her head. "He's telling the truth, you know. He wouldn't hurt us, I can tell."

Amberfeather was frustrated. Her kit would never understand. "Then go with him. Whitekit and Graykit won't come with you." She growled, and flicked her tail. "Neither am I." She said to Scratch.

Featherkit looked from Bonestar, to her mother, to Scratch. His eyes were deep with sorrow, clouded, he knew she wouldn't come with him.
"Why would you make a kit like me choose something like that? A NORMAL mother would never do that, then again, this isn't a NORMAL family." Featherkit snapped.
Scratch's eyes lite up hopefully. All he neeeded was for featherkit to join him and Amberfeather to leave.. Then he could start his plan.
Bonestar's eyes clouded.

Amberfeather blinked. "I've been trying Featherkit! Why do you think I became a medicine cat? I wasn't suppose to have kits, but thanks to you dad, now I am! I hate deciding things. I don;t ant you to do. I want to be normal, too. But if you keep arguing about it, I can't help you!" She blurted.

Featherkit looked from Amberfeather and Bonestar's desperate faces, feeling so confused. She had heard about Scratch, he was supposed to be all evil and mental. But what if he was just misunderstood? She knew Bonestar had left and all that stuff.. So, could Scratch be good deep down? Featherkit took a hesitant step toward her mother, then two steps back, a step toward Scratch.
"I don't know," Featherkit whispered.

Amberfeather stared at Featherkit. "Your brother and sister made me come back. They wanted to stay in BoneClan. I only came back to help my true family." She told her kit. "I wouldn't of come back if I didn't love you."

Scratch tried not to hiss. He was so close, why did Amberfeather have to go and screw it up. Again. He smiled encouragingly at his daughter.
"Do you mean we'd stay here?" Featherkit asked.
Graykit looked around, and looked at Whitekit. "She's taking too long, I think we ought to go back to BoneClan." He said.

Amberfeather shrugged. "We could. I won't stay unless you stay." She prompted, smirking secretly at Scratch.


Whitekit shook his head. "Let's stay a little longer." She argued.

Scratch's claws dug deeper and deeper into the ground. His face twisted into dulled pain.
Bonestar couldn't help but flinching at the look on his face. All he wanted was his daughter, yet he couldn't have her. She felt really bad for him.
Featherkit sat down, sighing. "I don't know! Dad's not going to hurt me, I know that, he's just misunderstood," She huffed. "But I don't know."

Graykit rolled his eyes. "What, are you scared, Whitekit?"

Amberfeather sat down. "It's up to you. Stay where you'll be happy. Me, Bonestar, Whitekit, and Graykit will all be here. Here you'd get proper training with us, and with Scratch, you would not be allowed anywhere near BoneClan territory." She pointed out.

"Don't even influence her like that," Bonestar said quietly. "Scratch would teach her well, and she'd learn on her own territory, she'd be welcome here anytime," Bonestar said. "I'm leader." Her eyes were dark.
Fernkit looked at Bonestar, her ears perked up. "I could?" She asked.
