Meet Sagepaw. ~backstory~ Once, far, far away, a little kit was born high on the rocky cliffs. Her name was Sage, and she had a perfect family. A warm, nurturing mother, a brave, strong, caring father. They lived in a little group of 8 loners, including themselves. There was Whisp, the white fae, and her mate Rock, the gray tom. Then there was Misty, the little blue fae, and her father, Sand, the strong ginger tom. They had a good life and when Sage was 5 moons old, she learned to hunt. But, one day, something went terribly wrong. Strange two-legged creatures came, and took Sage! They stole her away from her mother and put her in the mouth of some strange, huge, creature. It was dark and Sage was terrified. Suddenly, she felt a sharp pain in her hind leg, and fell asleep... What felt like days later, she woke up tired and scared. She was no longer in the back of that horrible thing, but now in a pen encased by huge metal cobwebs. She yowled in terror and tried to claw the fence, but it did nothing but hurt her leg. Now with a sore paw and leg, she tried to think of a way to escape. Then, a two legged thing came. It picked her up and carried her, and Sage realized this was her chance to escape. She clawed the thing, and startled, it dropped her. She scrambled away, shooting off. She was running over rough stone-like material, and it hurt her paws greatly. Suddenly, a huge monster was almost upon her. She made a great leap, and the thing only caught one of her legs. She yowled out in pain, but kept going, dragging the leg behind her. She had to reach the safety of the forest! A few of the two legged things, small ones, saw her and ran towards her, mewling, but she sped up, clenching her teeth through the pain. She finally made it to the edge of the forest, and disappointed, the small two-legs ran away. She dragged herself into the forest, tears coming to her eyes. Her newly injured leg hurt very badly, and she missed her family. She knew she would have to find shelter, though, so she kept on going. If she stayed out in the open, she would surely die. Soon, she reached the heart of the forest, but the sun had set. It was dark and shadowy, and she heard rustles in the bushes everywhere. Suddenly, a snarl came out from a bush, and a huge black cat leaped on her. She cried out, "Please don't hurt me!" The black cat, seeing she was only a kitten, stepped back. Sage was panting, and she said, "I'm hurt.. please help me..." She needed to eat, she was starving and so tired. The cat looked sympathetic, and helped her to her feet. Sage leaned against him, and he took her to a big group of cats in a clearing. A cat saw that she was injured and ran up, helping Sage to a warm den. The cat gave her some food, and a few odd black seeds. She ate them, as the cat indicated, and soon fell asleep... A while later, she woke up warm, full, and refreshed. The kind cat who had helped her looked over and said, "Ah, you're awake. good." Sage looked down at her leg and found it wrapped in cobweb. She asked, "Where am I?" The cat replied with a smile, "Welcome to Earthclan" EXTRA: Sagepaw was secretly born half earthclan. that's how she has powers! Her father was secretly of earthclan blood, but ran off Also, she now limps due to the injured leg.
