When a Good Dream Turns Bad (Tagged)

[Deleted]

OOC: Fiction maybe we could do a little about Prickleheart and Adderwing? Tell me what you think. 

Buildings loomed around them. The sound of monsters roared. Adderwing was in the alley where she used to live. She starred around in horror. She was back! She couldn't tell if she was happy or about to cry. She saw her mother and father and even her little sister. This is cruel! She ran over to them and they purred at her, "Hello dear! You're back?" She barreled into them, and her mother started to lick her head. "I.. I.. I missed you," She cried out. Suddenly the sound of monsters grew, but it wasn't monsters. It was dogs! They ran into the alley barking their heads off. No, No! Adderwing screamed in her head. It was that terrible day long ago. Her mother and father told her sister and her too run. They did. Dogs chased them away, and one grabbed onto her sister! This wasn't how it went! This wasn't right!


Adderwing snapped awake. It had just been a horrible twisted dream.

Prickleheart was a kit again, in the nursery with his mother. "Good morning, Pricklekit," she smiled. "Rawwr!" Prickleheart-no, Pricklekit growwled in a sqeaky, joking meow. "Hey, I have an idea, lets go to the medicine den!" Nettlefur stood up and Pricklekit followed close behind her. They went in and Nettlefur layed down in a nest and started coughing. "N-nettlefur?" Prickleheart squeaked. He tried to go to his mother, but something held him back, and he watched his mother turn to dust.
Prickleheart woke up, panting. "Bad dream," he muttered to himself. "Just another bad dream..." he looked over to Adderwing. She was awake, and looked a bit scared. He silently walked over to her. What are you doing? he asked himself. The dark brown tabby lay down next to her, and closed his eyes.
OOC: heehee

Adderwing looked at him. What was he doing? She had heard him nutter something, and then he had come over. She shifted, "Prickelheart...?" She stopped in what she was about to say. Maybe she should just go back to sleep. Maybe another cat would comfort her. It could be any cat, just it happened to Prickleheart this time.

OOC: Lol, I love it!

When Prickleheart woke up he was surprised. He was sleeping next to Adderwing! Prickleheart gave a little yelp and darted outside. He just needed to clear his brain. Hunting should do the trick. He couldn't get close to anyone. He had to stay focused. "Focused for what?" he muttered, sulking out of camp. "To do nothing but throw insults around?" The tabby spotted a mouse and creeped up to it. At the last moment he slipped, and the mouse scampered away. "Why do I keep thinking about her?" the tom lay down, exhausted and confused.

OOC: Aww, my little Prickleheart is growing up. *tears of joy*

Adderwing sat in the little cliff she had found long ago. It was hidden behind some rocks, and only she and her friend Brightblossom knew about it. It was where she hid when things seemed tough. When things got confusing. She liked Prickleheart, and in some odd way he seemed to like her too. Though at some times he seemed to just hate her. To very prickly, she smiled a little. There was a reason he had gotten that name.  

She heard something off in the distance. She got up and listened. Her heart started to beat faster, What was that? She crawled forward it had come from behind some rocks. Brightlossom was the only other at who knew about this place. "Brightblossom?" Nothing, "... Prickleheart?" She tried. Nothing. She crouched down and prepared to jump on anyone or anything that came out. She heard a hiss, but it didn't sound like a cat's hiss.

Prickle heart pricked his ears and raised his head. Someone was calling his name. The spiky furred tom crouched down low and sneaked through the bushes. He stopped when he saw Adderwing. Still crouched low, he watched her get ready to pounce. What was she doing? Wait, what was that hissing?

[Deleted]

Adderwing didn't take her eyes away from the rocks. She didn't see Prickleheart watching her. There was another hiss, but it came from behind her. She flipped around. There was a large adder snake.  Irony! Sometimes life was cruel. She hissed trying to scare off the snakes. More snakes slipped out of the rocks. She backed up, but the cliff ended leaving a long fall.

With a bounding leap, Prickleheart jumped out of the bushes and bit the adder hard on the throat. He clawed the other snakes, hissing. More snakes emerged. "Well?" he said glaring at Adderwing. "Help me!" he continued hissing and swiping at the snakes.

Adderwing grabbed onto a snakes head throwing it to the side and off the cliff. A snake was starting to sneak up on Prickleheart. She lunged forward and tore the snake in half. She bit and tore at other snakes. The snakes started to flee. Soon the clearing was empty except for her and Prickleheart.

"Thank you Prickleheart. I would have been dead if you hadn't shown up." Adderwing huffed. She was winded from the fight. "I didn't know their were snakes here. I'm sorry." Her heart sank. She had just made a fool of herself in front of Prickleheart. She couldn't save herself, and he had to come save her.

She turned her back to Prickleheart, and she started to head back down towards the camp.

He saw Adderwing looked a bit ashamed. She started down the hill. He had to do something, he couldn't let her feel bad like that. "W-wait!" He called after her. "It's okay to need help sometimes," he said quietly, catching up to her. He awkwardly cleared his throat. "Netlefur, if your watching this, help me what to say," he thought, sending a glance to the sky. "Do you, want to hang out sometime?" Prickle heart said awkwardly.

[Deleted]

Adderwing shrugged away from Prickleheart, "Umm... I guess we could go hunting sometime." She looked at him, "Why do you want to hang out with me?" She was suspicious. Could he actually... Possibly... Maybe like her? "I'm not exactly any good at hunting. I can't catch anything." She needed Brightblossom right now! Just a friend who would help her understand infuriating toms! Sometimes they were sweet and kind, and the next second they were hissing and spitting at you. Well, that was her experience.

"Um...you know...because I...um..." Prickleheart was getting a little mad. Why did she-cats have to know every single little thing? "Look, if you don't want to, you don't have to," and he turned, then stopped. This was his chance. "but...I would like it if you would come. Tommorow at the dead willow. Be there or not be there." and Prickleheart ran back to camp, his heart thudding in his chest.

[Deleted]

"Fine!" Adderwing watched Prickleheart run away. She slowly started to head into the rocks surrounding her. She had to come home with something. A mouse darted past her, and she lashed out and caught it. She put it in her mouth. Looking around she heard other animals. Lot of them! No, I'm too tired tonight. This mouse is something. She trod off in the direction Prickleheart had taken heading towards camp.

OOC: Do you want to start a new thread them meeting at the willow tree, or just continue with this?
