There meeting, a fence on the edge of kittypet town. His goal, to cause some havoc, her goal to look at the forest before and long for a chance to run free.

A fatal meeting between the two, names and fights. Soon both found something in each other, something new, something old, something known as love-gag-

It wasn't long before they ran away, their backs to their normal life. He wasn't a rogue bent on blood, and she wasn't a kittypet who knew nothing of the outside life. seconds turned into days, and days flew into months. The two cats grew braver, bolder, and more in love-gag-.

they start to travel on lands forbidden, climb higher before. They were flying far off into their distant world. But with light comes dark, and with hope comes fear. And the higher you climb the harder you fall.

His head hurt, a agonizing pain, but was it amnesia. that was what he claimed, but was it a lie, an excuse to run away. Whatever it was, she was left alone and soon she would have kits. When she ran into a new friend, or maybe an enemy, who claims to have known her love, will anything be revealed, or will it all lay in the Dark mist~

~Kino nodded his head slightly, his crimson red fur shifting slightly in the wind. Emerald green eyes gazed at the She-cat, the cat who loved his best friend. He flicked his fluffy orange red tail, a little bit of dirt was throw into the wind, carried off with the breeze of the moment. He took a deep breath, holding it in, puffing out his chest. Then every so shortly he let it out in a big sigh. He closed his eyes, emeralds shutting out the light. The pressure weighed on him, he had to protect her. Keep her out of harms nasty reach. Yet how, she was clearly devastated. Dark ran away, leaving her to fend for herself
~"So a place to rest?" he asked before he stood up. Sweeping his tail on the ground once more. He let out another sigh, not as big as the first, but still got the point across. He was a rogue for crying out loud, he wasn't put on the earth to show people around. He hunched his shoulders up, pulled his legs back, and then start to ran, his feet barely staying on the ground for a second. The wind brushed past his body, sliding his fur into place. Aligning it with every little stand. He was like a shooting bullet, through his body wasn't built to run, No Kino was a fighter, he bulky body, much like a tank. But every rogue knew how to run.
~He ended up near a little hole in a tree. Most of ForestClan didn't know about this tree, nor the little hole in it. It was a favorite around rogues and loners alike. The smell was so strong, it filled his nose to the very top, shoving the sense right out of him. But he was use to it, Kino and Dark had stayed here on their first exploration through the clans. It was funny how stupid they could be, caring more about if other clans hunted in their territory, yet rogues sleep here all the time. he let out a little snort as he though about it. He really hated those stupid Clanners, they made everything worse. They blamed everything one the rogues, so what if rogues like to fight, love to see death, and the taste of blood. It didn't mean they were bad. Take Dark for an example, he was the most purest Rogue Kino had every saw. He might have had a rough past, but he believe in doing good deeds. Not many rogues preached about doing the right thing. Kino let out a huff of air, as he waited patiently for Cloud to show up.

[&&ANGEL]

Cloud’s mind had been drifting off slightly. Just the memory reminded by Kino here of Dark just brought her conscience away from the real world, her kits and the male who proposed that he knew her long time lover. The white she-cat gave out an exhausted sigh. She could remember his face quite clearly- those chiseled features, his strong built and that familiar comforting, warm smile of his. Dark had been the one who lured her out of kitty-pet life and out living. He was the one who saved her from a long life of laying around lazily. He taught her how to hunt. He taught her how to fight; it was a miracle that she had barely survived for about 6 moons without him. And now, former wounds opened once again and her heart was gradually aching for his presence once again.

Dark… I miss you so much… if only you could understand and if only you can see your kits. I bet they’ll look like you- I really hope they do, all strong, muscular and healthy. I’m trying to keep myself fed and well just for the kit’s sake but I’m afraid that the pregnancy has become a terrible hindrance to it all. I’ve struggled for far too long and more than once had I considered returning to the two-legs, but I knew they would never accept me with kits bulging from my belly. So after that, I had considered much about letting my life pass, for your sake and for the kits. If I die before the kits are born, they wouldn’t have to deal with the thought of never knowing their father and they wouldn’t have to experience hunger in StarClan. But I don’t know… I’ve continued living with all you’ve taught me and I’m not going down now. No… But Kino… He claims… he claims to know you but trust him- I’m not sure yet. But if you can read my thoughts or if this prayer reaches StarClan then I want you to know… I love you. I love you and our kits to-be. I haven’t given up hope yet and hopefully one day… I can see your face again.

Her thoughts were suddenly cut off as Kino leaped off and with a quick rustle of paws, she too ran forth, struggling as her enormous underbelly weighed her down. What a cumbersome burden this litter of kits served Cloud, yet she held her head up proud. She loved Dark- true and true and his kits, she was proud to bear. Thus, she sped her pace, pushing roughly against the ground- pads to dirt. ”Wait up!” She yowled shaking her head from side to side, feeling the sudden affects of pregnancy falling over her which was mainly exhaustion. Yet soon enough, she caught up, breathing heavily and nearly falling over in such tire, yet she kept herself from doing so as her eyes traveled to the shelter.

The many scents hit Cloud hard, nearly overwhelming her. ”Are you sure no one else will mind I stay here?” She asked, taking a slight step back as her nose took a while to get used to the strong wave of smells and more.

[GOD!]

Out of my life, out of my mind
Out of the tears we can't deny
We need to shallow all of or pride
And put this mess behind

~Kino let out a little growl as he waited impatiently. How he hated to wait, how he hated to feel time slowly tick off. Every heart beat had a meaning, a goal in life to accomplish and as he waited he felt like he was losing something, losing pieces of his story, a story that was yet to be completed. It drove him nuts, insane as you could say. He would probably rip that she-cats throat out at the moment, if Dark hadn't asked for him to protect her. He let out a aggravated sigh, and glanced around with his emerald green eyes. He could finally hear her pants as she start to come closer to where he was. When she finally did show up he noticed and remembered why it took her so long. Her over sized belly, that was holding precise life.
~His angry slowly faded now, as he realized what an idiot he was. "Don't worry." he barely muttered before standing up. A flick of his crimson red tail, and he was standing right beside her. He placed his black cold nose on his white shoulder and nudge her in the direction of the cave. He didn't like it though, it was so weird, touching another cat. He was a rogue, raised in solitude, lived mostly without anyone, walking this world alone. Even Dark knew this, yet he was always by his side, telling Kino that they were friends. Friends always he could almost hear Dark say. But that was years ago. Even though him and Dark were friends, request like this came slim, Kino didn't ask Dark to do anything. It came so unexpectedly, after Dark went missing for months. He always did wonder what Dark was up to though.
~"I will protect you." Kino muttered before jerking his nose off of her shoulder. Time passed slowly as he stood staring at the ground, watching his feet kick sand into the air. He needed to get out of here, maybe to hunt of something. How safe was it to leave Cloud be herself? Wouldn't some rogue pass by here shortly, seeking shelter, and who knew what could happen. A fight, maybe even death. Death wouldn't weigh good on this red orange tom, not her death at least. It would gnaw at his core, tearing him up inside. Nightmares, and to think about Dark. The hate in his eyes when Dark figured out what Kino had done. That would be the worse, not being able to call Dark his friend anymore.

[&&ANGEL]

Cloud’s gentle blue eyes widened as he murmured, ”I will protect you”, in such a faint voice that if she had been panting as she had been from the sudden rush, then she would have probably missed it. Yet she was glad she had heard it. It was a statement that had more of a meaning than she appeared at first. Why would a rogue want to protect me? Cloud had only been training as a solitary cat ever since she had met Dark and she wouldn’t be exactly called a ‘rogue’ as more of a loner. And ever since he had taught her how to hunt her first kill, she had been a bit apprehensive about killing all in her sight- not to mention a small animal for dinner. However, it all just reminds her of how Dark had greatly affected her life once again. If not for him, Cloud would still surely be planted upon the fence he had found her upon, looking out at the world that without him, she would never have gotten to know.

The silvery-white she-cat gave a sigh and eyed the dark cavern for a moment. She closed her eyes and slowly padded in, her fur showing clearly through the dim light as the rising moon respectfully shined down over the land. Cloud smiled at Kino, lashing her tail lightly. ”You are a wonderful friend, Kino. Dark is very lucky to have someone like you.” She laid her head upon her paws and gave out a slightly yawn. The air was getting colder and the light was getting dimmer, yet her paws felt restless as they often did with her ‘mood swings’ at the time of pregnancy.

She slowly got up, struggling for a moment from her cumbersome underbelly before turning back to Kino. ”If you don’t mind. I’m going for a gentle stroll.” Cloud took a deep breath then brushed past him, fur against fur as if in thanks once again before disappearing into the thick foliage of the forest.

Before long, Cloud slumped down at the cliff where Dark and she had fallen. It was their last moments together and she couldn’t help but bring her heavily gained body over to the spot just to contemplate her mixed up thoughts. Her eyes from time to time would cast up at the tip where the accident had taken place, where she could do nothing to save him from his fate and the paw mark that she had left along the side of the cliff where in the days after the devastating abandonment, she had stood and waited for her one and only true love. And as she thought, from time to time she just wished that Kino hadn’t come to her rescue, but then she wouldn’t have shelter, food or protection, yet he had brought painful memories back from where they had laid buried in her mind and she hadn’t expected them to rise back up until the kits were born- something she wasn’t looking forward to.

Cloud looked down at her paws. "What happened to you?" she asked casting a sorrowful glance up at the ledge then back down at dark. "You fell and now..." she shook her head softly.
"I fell?' Dark said questioningly. He laughed a bit and walked up at cloud. "Well I think I will go now."
Cloud's mouth hung open in surprise. "B-But" she meowed stepping forward once more. "But, I thought-" she shook her head softly. "Dark, you have to remember!!!" she hissed casting an angry glance toward the ledge. They should never have climbed. It was my fault Dark is acting strange... she thought to herself.
Dark looked at her. "Well I am sorry if I hurt you but now I think I should go." he told her with a nod.

And those were the last things he had said to her before he left. She shuddered at the thought of the moment quickly burying her muzzle into her shoulder fur, curling her tail around her to keep herself warm, yet Cloud couldn’t help but feel an eerie dread coming over her. It was cold and unforgiving. I shouldn’t have made him go… I should’ve just stayed as a stupid kitty pet… It was my fault…my fault… She took a deep breath, feeling herself beginning to sob, but she would not let herself cry. Cloud had gotten over this moons ago before the kits were making a big impression on her, but now… past feelings were returning and that gap in her heart was larger than usual.

[GOD!]

Out of my life, out of my mind
Out of the tears we can't deny
We need to shallow all of our pride
And leave this mess behind

~Kino watched her, as she took a step closer to the den he found. Then she seemed to cuddle up and get ready for a sleep that she greatly needed. Yet she didn't, she said one last thing. About how Kino was such a great friend. He was stunned at the statement, and her slivery white fur. She was a very pretty cat, took the breathe away from Kino at that very moment. He finally knew why Dark fell in love with her, something that could rarely happen. Not only did he not fall in love, he couldn't tell if a cat had any feelings of affection for him. Rather dense in the head if you asked Kino. But the friend comment really threw him off. He was lucky to have Dark, not the other way around. Dark walks with him in the darkness, searching for the light at the end of the tunnel. "Yeah friends." he muttered to himseazure]~

[/color]He closed his eyes for a bit, the hunting feeling slowly started to fad, and he started to get his sense back. Why did she make him feel like he was in a net, why was she doing this to him? He made him feel so numb inside, like he couldn't even hear his own heart beat telling him to get moving. Time slowed down once again, slower then it ever had been. it was quiet, as the she-cat finally stopped moving her paws around. Kino let out a big sigh and opened his eyes again. Green emeralds gazed at the she-cat getting closer to him. She seemed weak, easily broken. She did tumble about off balance, like she was walking on a tight rope. Her bely must be killing her, rendering her useless in every aspect. She needed a guard to protect her, or at least Dark though she need one. But did Dark foretell having kids?

~She passed by him, brushing her white fur against his orange red flames of fur. He shivered slightly when she left, hating the feeling she left on him. Flames were burning inside him, he needed to know what this feeling was, or why he was feeling it. Maybe he needed to get around cats more often, he never felt like this near Dark. But he felt a little remorse when they first started to talk. No one needed to hang near Kino, he didn't need anyone, yet this too, Dark and Cloud didn't get that. Always touched him, always spoke to him, made him feel like he belonged. Maybe the dark was all that bad. He could get used to it, he could see threw it. But yet, Kino knew he needed some light, to guide him were he needed to go. Maybe those too could clear up the murkiness of the dark, maybe... but that wasn't the problem yet, he need to find Cloud, to help her if she fell.

~He quickly turned his body around and sniffed the air. He could smell her, and the strong trail she left behind. He smirked, this was going to be easy, and with that he dashed of after her, knowing it wasn't long till he found her. The trees slowly flew past him, his white paws hitting the ground with force. they made a thud with every step he took, like his beating heart. It felt good, the wind against he face, the ground flying past him, the feeling of running free.He took a big breath of this feeling, who knew who long it would last. He start to slow down as he heard a small whimper, a little cry, and maybe even Dark's name. He let out a sigh before coming to a complete stop. There the cat was, the cat whom he needed to protect sitting all alone, tail curle3d over her paws. She was dreaming of Dark, Kino thought, a little frown on his face. He flicked his tail, but didn't move. He remembered this place, Dark told him about it. The place he left Cloud alone at, where he claimed to have lost everything, lost his past with her.

~He saw it in her blue eye, a tearfully state. She was a strong cat, he could tell, she held her head high, and never back away when she mentioned Dark's name. She was baring his kids, alone, and probably would never speak bad about him. But then she didn't know the true reason why he left, why he felt he wasn't good enough for her. But then Dark never told Kino either, he keep it a secret, all he said was the Cloud needed to be protected and Dark couldn't do it, so Kino had to. Kino let out a big sigh, and walked out into the clearing, moonlight pouring over his red fur. He let out a little smile as he sat down beside her, curling his tail near her body. "Do you need some one to cry on?" he asked her, maybe as a friend, or maybe with the feeling this is what Dark would have wanted him to do.
"Just let it out, you will feel better." he told the strong cat. But Kino knew one thing, Dark's memory was tearing Cloud up inside, much like what normal feelings do to Kino, or what friends do to him. "I might be able to help." he said with a chuckle. Help with what? Kino was a cat who had never really had friends. what could he really help with?

Out of my head, Out of my bed
Out of the dreams we had, they’re bad
Tell them it’s me who made you sad
Tell them the fairytale gone bad

[&&ANGEL]

It wasn’t long until she heard footsteps nearing her, yet in all her sorrow she hadn’t expected it to be Kino. Besides, why would he follow her? He was a rogue and he didn’t seem all to interest in her from the start. Yet soon words flowed from the tom and soon came those comforting warm words that only he could supply at this moment. ”Do you need someone to cry on?” He muttered and immediately, Cloud took a deep breath, wiping away her sorrowful tears; quickly putting on a firm, strong face- something that she knew wouldn’t last long. ”Cry? I-I’m not crying Kino.” She mewed in the most broken up voice as she tried to pull herself together in record time, yet as he spoke on, her mask disappeared and she looked as sad and broken as she had been before.

”I-I was just… thinking…” The she-cat closed her eyes, sniffling at the tears that she could not hold back any longer- yet she tried and tried. It was very unusual for her to cry. Ever since she had met Dark, not a single tear had left her eyes until the day he had left her and now more than ever she tried to keep her old composure. Only kittypets cry, Cloud. You’re not a kittypet anymore. She kept muttering to herself, yet the truth could not be kept under wraps and more than once, she had found herself crying like at this very moment.

The silvery-white she-cat lifted her gaze up to the tom- a feat she thought she wouldn’t be able to accomplish. She couldn’t look him in the eyes, no. He probably thinks I’m such a weakling… She shuddered under that thought as she looked up at him like a lost kitten. And for a moment, she held his fiery gaze. He looked so determined to protect her and he had gone through all the trouble in following her to this very spot; for a moment or two she could have sworn that he had come here for a different reason- this fact backed up with the sighting of something else in those strong, caring eyes. Thus, she could not look away and her feminine nature took over.

Cloud gave out a faint wail and she slowly scoot closer, burying her face within Kino’s chest fur, nearly sobbing as she confessed the burden that continued to serve as the rock in her gut. ”Oh Kino… It was my fault Dark had lost his memory… I could never forgive myself for doing so! I-I-If I hadn’t insisted that we go over the mountain, he wouldn’t have fell and- and if I hadn’t gone with him into the forest… he would have never gone over the mountain with me…” She gave another pathetic sob. ”I’m so sorry… I’m so sorry….” She pulled closer, her body shaking uncontrollably. Yet as her breathing became ragged, she realized what exactly she was doing.

A quick shade of pink flashed across her cheeks. Light baby blue eyes slowly lifting to rest upon Kino’s face with hopefully, a calm expression other than anger. You mouse-brained idiot! Kino’s never gonna protect the kits now! She turned her head away, quickly shaking away the silver tears. ”No… No… Sorry, Kino… I-I… I couldn’t help myself.” She took a few steps back, struggling to regain her usual breathing pattern. ”I-I-I can’t believe I just exploded like that.” The she-cat gave an exhausted sigh shaking her head once more as if it would help her regain control of her shivering body. ”I’m sorry, Kino.”

[GOD!]

It was natural wasn't it, to not show weakness to others, even if they were your own flesh and blood, if they had spent years with you, and knew you from the inside out. Yo wouldn't cry in front of them right, you always need to be strong. Or maybe Cloud didn't find him trust worthy. Kino could plainly see how hurt she was, how she needed some to comfort her. Yet we he tried, she made up an excuse, she wasn't going to cry. "She was just thinking." he muttered plainly to himself. Thinking about what though? It was probably Dark, it was always Dark. Dark was always ahead of him, always doing crazy stuff, that Kino would never do in his life. Much like taking a kittypet out of her house just to leave her alone in the open, expecting kits. Kino was deeply lost in his own thoughts, not paying attention, his yellow eyes staring off into the distance, when Cloud broke out into a sob, crying right into his chest.

His eyes were wide open, and Kino was very much frozen into to place. He really didn't expect anything to happen, let alone to be touch either. He didn't do anything first, just listened to her sobs, about Dark and about how she caused it. "It wasn't your fault." he muttered when she was all down, and off his chest. She opened up, she cried, and know she look terrified. "No one can be blamed for Dark's problem." he stated roughly. Though Kino knew for sure, Dark was ok, Dark knew everything, and Dark was probably lurking in the darkness some where, waiting for a chance to come back. He was a snake like that, but he seemed to mean so much to Cloud, so much and then some. Kino let out a small sigh, "Don't worry." he stated before turning away. "Once you feel better come back to camp" and with that he left, jumped into a bush and then ran.

He was back at camp in no time. The moon was hung in the sky, casting it's shadows on everything and anything. "Dark you jerk." Kino muttered to himself, as he gazed up at the silver moon. Why did he do this, what good was it for him to leave Cloud alone. Dark wasn't like this, or at least not the Dark Kino knew. The Dark Kino knew was strong, and caring. Would protect the weak, but wouldn't leave some one he loved behind. What could have changed him, or maybe Kino didn't know him very well at all. His only friend, and Kino didn't know him. "Is everything a lie." he mutter to himself. Everything and Anything, was it all a lie.
