Moonrise nudged Sunset to her paws. "You can do it, all you have to do is make it to the new territory."
Sunset nuzzled her mother. "Alright," she squeked.
As they settled into the High Hills, nothing moved. "You're safe now Sunset," Moonrise mewed. And with that, the young queen laid down and died.
"Mommy?" Sunset mewed. "Mommy!" Nothing could stop the tears from running down her orange face.
It has been many moons since then, but young Sunset still roams the High Hills, looking for her father, seeking revenge toward the tom who had abbandened her mother and herself.

OOC: Mind if I join in? I don't have a rouge, but I have a idea.
IC: Treestar slowly made his way threw the grass. The Earthclan leader's nose was to the frosty grass, in a desperate search for a scent. The scent was from a cat that had been locked away in his memory for so many years. It didn't cross Treestar's mind, why he was still searching for the she-cat that had his kit secretly. The once beautiful she-cat had gone off into the dark woods alone, and never had come back. This happened, because of what they both feared of what Starclan would do. This fear got the better of her. And soon, her mind snapped.
What Treestar would give, just to see her one last time. Even maybe in Starclan. But every time he visited them in his dreams, his past love was not with them. This didn't help with the leader's worry and fear of her. Starclanners would not answer, when he asked were she was. They only said that she did not believe in Starclan, in hopes to escape their punishment. This gave Treestar little hope. If she didn't believe in them, then that means she must be still alive. Right?
Treestar could only hope, as his nose dug down deep into a frosty patch of grass. There was a strange smell. It wasn't anything he had ever smelled before. Or was it her, and he had just forgotten what her sweet scent was like? This gave the slim light brown tom hope, as his paw steps grew faster, and his progress grew. If only the leader had looked up, and saw were he was.

Sunset stared down at the brown tom running through her territory. She gave a low growl, then turned away. No, that couldn't be her father, or could it? She looked again at him. She knew her mother had once been called Moontail, and had lived in one of the Clans. This cat smelled of the Clans. But no, surely the tom that had left her mother heartbroken had already died in shame. Unsure, she started bounding down the hill towards the intruder. She would at least protect the place that her mother had died.
She caught his scent and nearly gagged. Yes he was from the Clans, and he smelled familiar, like a long forgotten memory. Was that how her mother had smelt? She couldn't remember. Moonrise had died so long ago. Of course, if this was the tom and he did feel guilt, he would talk to his daughter, surely. But all Sunset had of her mother was her eyes, those beautiful, star-filled eyes...

Yes, she thought, this must be him. They had the same build and thin tail. Sunset drew back her lips in the beginning of a snarl. He came back, yet he had killed her mother of a broken heart. Now he would pay, he would know what it felt like to be alone and unwanted, to have the last caring cat in your life be torn away from you. Finally, after many moons of searching, she would have her revenge.

But for some reason, she slowed. If this truly was her father, why shouldn't she talk to him? Maybe he would tell her of her mother, before she killed him.

OOC: Sorry for the wait, have so much to do, and I have a sugar rush!!!! XD XD XD XD XD lol
IC: Treestar froze in mid step, as a odd smell came to his nose. It....was....simalar, but yet different. The Earthclan leader whipped his head around, and looked up slightly. On a hill, he could see a ginger cat in the distence. The cat was....just....standing there. Instantly, Treestar fell low, and into a battle position, ready for what ever this cat would do. The tom kept silent, for he never liked talking when it was not needed.

Sunset drew level to the intruder. "Hello," she mewed tensly. "Looking for someone? In my territory?" She growled slightly. "Someone special? A she-cat, one whose eyes look like mine? Someone who you feel guilt towards? I might spare you if you feel guilt. If you are not the cat I'm looking for, I would advise that you leave me to my searchings." She drew a paw over her ear. "A she-cat that you may know as Moontail, and who bore you a kit, a ginger kit called Sunset? If you feel no guilt, then that would be quite a pity..."

OOC: Okay, maybe my idea, is that the reason his past love left, was because she was going to have another kit. But what will confuse Treestar, is that she changed her name to Moontail in a attempt to hide from Starclan or something. Lakeripple approve? XP
IC:: Treestar froze as this cat came closer. As the cat spoke, the Earthclan leader flexed his claws, in ready for a sudden attack maybe from some other cat hiding in the grass. But.....then the cat mentioned eyes.....Treestar locked his green-yellow eyes with this cat's. Her eyes were a beautiful blue, that seemed to shine in even the shadow that cast over them. The leader took a step back, "I know of no Moontail, and who I search for is none of your concern." Treestar paused, and took a new less threatening pose, but still stayed ready for a attack, "You speak of your eyes? They remind me of Mudslide's....." Then Treestar felt nothing. A cold shiver ran up his spine, as the leader slowly turned away from the she-cat, and made his way back. No....it couldn't be.....Everything was swirling in the leader's head, as he began to make his way home to think.
OOC: Stop him, Sunset!!! He knows of your eyes, he must know something!!! XD

OOC:Yes, she changed he name to Moontail, then Moonrise. It is a bit confusing...
IC:Sunset raised her hackles. "It is my concern, you are on my territory!" Beneath her angry pose her mind was reeling. Who was this Mudslide? "My eyes are mine and they are not to remind you of any Mudslide!" Then she thought it over. "But what did Mudslide look like? Tell me, and you'll have longer to gain my good intentions." She knew it was no use, This tom was obviously very strong, and she had never had proper battle training. But still, so far he seemed to be falling for it...

Sunset bounded after the tom and blocked his path. "You aren't leaving until I get some answers," she growled. "Now tell me about this Mudslide."

OOC: Okay!
IC: Treestar froze, and looked on to this cat named Sunset. Normally a cat would just say it wasn't the other's buisness, and walk away. But something told him to tell this younger she-cat. "Mudslide was of Waterclan, and I, Earthclan. Our love was forbidden, yes. And, one sun high, I saw, and found out, about my son for the first time. We both feared what Starclan would hold for us, and so, the fear soon got to her. Her mind snapped, and ever scence then, she never thought right." Treestar swallowed hard, as he sat down, and continued, "Mudslide was still loving. She just....reacted differently to things. And one night, she left into the dark forest. I have never seen her sense." Treestar fell silent when he was done talking.

OOC: Silvery-gray with beautiful, star-filled eyes. A slight dash of brown on the tail. A white chest. Black dapples down her back.

OOC: Okay!!!
IC: Treestar let out a soft sigh. His tail twitched slightly, as he imagined the she-cat that he had loved. "She had silvery-gray fur, with beautiful, star-filled eyes. A slight dash of brown was on her tail. She had a odd white chest, and black dapples down her back." Treestar looked up, and met Sunset's star filled eyes. "May I go now?" The tom got to his paws after these words. His eyes were filled with pain, as he imagined the she-cat. How she had looked then, and before she had gone away. Had....if Sunset was truly Mudslide’s daughter, why did she call her mother Moontail? In fact, why did Treestar stay here, and explain in the first place? He could have left any moment. And if he had to fight, he would have, even though the leader knew that was the last thing he wanted to do. Treestar's heart-broken eyes looked away, and more to the sky, as he waited for the she-cat's response.

"No," Sunset meowed. "Mudslide was your mate, and with her you had a son. She vanished soon after. That is your story, but you do not know the rest. Listen, then you may go."
"The cat you call Mudslide was not afraid of what StarClan would do to her just because of her son. She was afraid because she was to have another kit. So she ran, hating herself for leaving her mate and son, but knowing that she must save her next kit from the wrath of StarClan. She ran to a sandy area by a lake, and there she gave birth to a she-kit whom she called Sunset. Still afraid that StarClan would find her, she changed her name to Moontail and refused to look to the stars. Soon Moontail began to go mad. She started to blame her mate for abbandoning her and her kit, though her kit could tell that inside she still loved the cat she called Treestar. When Moontail realized that life was draining away from her, she changed her name again, to make sure that StarClan had nothing to do with it. She became Moonrise, and took her daughter here to the High Hills. Here she died, and here her daughter still roams, seeking revenge. You are Treestar, and I am Sunset, and I would have killed you if I had not heard the remorse in your voice. But we are kin, and if you promise to come to me often, then I will allow you to leave." Now Sunset became thoughtful. "You might bring my brother sometime, if he can be spared. I should like to know the tom that my mother bore."
As she finished, Sunset curled her tail around her legs, and waited for Treestar to answer her.

OOC: Nice! I like how the story went! By the way, for your cat Brooksplash, is it okay if my Pondpaw was one of her kits? When Pondpaw has to leave for the tribe with Smokepaw and Acornpaw, I want someone to miss her. Smokepaw is really her only friend in the clan so far....what you think? <_<
IC: Treestar was frozen. Another kit? But he only knew of his son, who was in Skyclan. Mudslide had been cleaver to leave her son with a new Skyclan couple, so that none of the Waterclan cats would think about him being from Mudslide. That she-cat had always thought three moves ahead. But had she planned for this? Treestar hadn't. The leader stood before his daughter dumbly. The light brown tabby tom bent his head down, and stared at his cream colored underside. "Mud-...I mean Moonrise had always been a cleaver she-cat. But....I can only wonder....is she in Starclan or Demonclan?" The Earthclan leader rose his gaze, before getting to his paws. His low feathery tail flicked to the forest. But not to the territory of Earthclan, but to the land of Skyclan. "If I can get to him." Treestar answered, when Sunset mentioned her brother. His tail's motion was a hint to her, that if she ever wanted to find him, that she should try in Skyclan. "If you ever want to see him yourself, look for the headstrong tom, with dark blue eyes, that get darker with leaf-bare." And with those last words, the leader came forward a few steps to the younger she-cat. He was hesitant at first, but soon he gently placed his nose to her forehead.
Words were useless, for his soft and loving touch said it all. It was also a promise, that he would come back and see her when he could. Once Treestar drew back, he gave a half hearted smile to his daughter, and bounded off for Earthclan. Now that the leader's mind was clear. His love was gone, which was tragic, but he had found a daughter. One that reminded him so much of Mudslide, now known as Moonrise. Maybe, the leader thought, if she had changed her name, maybe that is why Starclan was unable to tell him if she was alive or not, or maybe even where she was. Had she fooled them? Cleaver Moonrise. Treestar let out a soft sigh, as he raced threw the grass. His paws pounded softly onto the ground, despite his speed. The slim leader felt the wind rush threw his light brown tabby fur.
OOC: I was thinking we could end this post, because maybe they could meet at the other thread you had made.... ;D
