Chapter 22- Sisters
“Mint, my sister” Said the she-cat who looked exactly like her. “My name is Leaf, although you probably don’t remember.”
“Wai-” Mintleaf was about to say before she was whisked into a vision when Leaf put a paw on her shoulder.
“Mint!!” a smaller looking Leaf shouted. “Keep running!!”
“I am!!” A kit that looked a lot like a mini Mintleaf meowed, huffing.
Farther behind, what looked like a forest was burning. Mintleaf heard many cat’s yowls echoing farther into the trees. Mintleaf heard a loud crash, followed by multiple loud screeches. The two kits ran even faster through the moonlit forest, trying to run away from the battle. The two light green kits were panting and pushing themselves to go faster. Suddenly, a dark shape seemed to fall from the sky, blocking some of the stars.
“MINT WATCH OUT!!” Leaf shrieked in Mint’s direction.. She headbutted Mint to the side out of the way as a large tree fell inches from the pair of cats, and heavily thumped the ground. But the cats had no time to linger as they kept running, now in another direction.
“This way!” Leaf yelled.
Anywhere away from the chaos seemed to be with the smaller Mint.
The pair jumped across roots and rivers, running frantically.
“Where’s Mom?!” Mint yowled. “She was supposed to come with us!”
“She said she didn’t have time,” Leaf screeched back. “But she would meet us
there later!”
Then, seemingly out of nowhere, the cats encountered a thunderpath.
“Mom said to stay here and wait,” Leaf said. “But it looks so calm! Lets go!”
“Uhh... I don’t think we should” Mint said looking at the thunderpath. “Mom
said not to…”
“I’m older, so I’ll go first” Leaf mewed, ignoring mini Mint and padding onto the thunderpath anyways.
“LEAF DON’T!” mini Mint shouted and pounced after her sister.
Just then, two large orbs of light lit the dark and started moving towards the pair. Mini Mint was pushing a paralized Leaf off the thunderpath, but it was too late. The Monster was right on top of them. Using her last ounce of strength, smaller Leaf pushed mini Mint out of the way. Then the monster rolled over them.
Then, when the daytime came, Dark appeared, gently pulling a limp, unconscious Mint toward the Fallenclan camp. Then, Mintleaf was shocked awake.
“Fallenwings, you won't believe this.” Mintleaf said.
