// “Therefore, I declare my devout loyalty to you, Maleficentstar. If I am to keep my legacy, my son’s legacy, my parents’ legacy, and dare I say this clan’s legacy, then I choose your ways. I choose to protect my clan. Whatever the cost,” // Was that really what he had said? Really, truly, why had he said that? What was his purpose? Oh yes. He remembered. His family. His parents were gone. Vulturelurk and Boogarden. Boogarden and Vulturelurk. Growing up he didn't feel connected to Vulturelurk. He wish he had tried harder. Boogarden. Oh ma, you were the holder of my world. Why did you leave me? Would you have stayed if I was a medicine cat like you? You said you were proud of me, but did you really mean it? Amethystruse. We didn't talk. You didn't needed me like I needed you. Don't you understand we could have grown up together? Scampersun. Fear me. Do I look different to you? You practically didn't recognize me the last time we spoke. Trade places with me. I could have been Ma's apprentice. You can be the loser apprentice with no friends. Daisysonder. Don't leave. Why did you leave. Were you not happy as my daughter? I wish you were. You should have been. Did I do something wrong? Ariaspark. Wake up. I wish you loved me like I love you. One step into warrior hood and you haven't spoken to me. Don't you realize how much that hurts? Songbirdpaw. You remind me. Oh and the one cat who wasn't his family but was HIS. She was his, and she had to go along and DIE. She didn't even stay to say goodbye. Was he all alone to be the lover boy? All he ever had been during his life was the smaller sibling, boogarden's kit, that random apprentice. Of course he could change. That's exactly what he did when he pronounced his loyalty to Maleficentstar. That was real. He just decided it. To protect himself, and his future. He would become someone different. Maybe he would actually be taken seriously now, and Maleficentstar was his key. That was his choice. He would become the perfect, respected Thunderclan cat, and support Maleficentstar's choices. He needed to become a monster. He just hoped he didn't lose himself along the way.. /you won't forget me anymore. Forget me not. you won't. I'll make sure i'm known./ "I'm sorry Ma." "Please don't fret" "I promise I'll take care of myself." "I love you..."
