A young tom wandered around near Thunderpath. His matted fur cast an uneven shadow against the ground, and he wandered on, without a hope. His paw was recently injured when he fell on the ground, and it was still twisted up and swollen. This left him unable to use his paw, and also left him unable to catch much prey. He was trying to live on any scrap of food he could find, but he was starving. At this point, he didn't care if he wandered into a clan camp. He just needed help.
If I had never tripped..... I wouldn't be in this condition.... He thought. Midnight's whole life had been nothing but misery so far. His siblings and his mother were killed by a badger, and he still found this hard to think about. He had lived only with his family until they were killed, and now, he was a loner. Midnight never forgave himself for not trying to fight the Badger that killed his family, even though if he had tried to fight, he probably would have been killed too. Tears welled up in his eyes at the thought of his past.
Midnight was losing the will to live, but he still pushed on. Even though he had lost his family, and even though he was injured and starving, he kept on walking.

Jayflight was hunting by the Thunderpath, only here you could get half- dead frog hopping around from the sounds of the Thunderpath. There is was the first catch of the day, a good size frog. Jayflight stalked closer to the prey, swooshing his tail back and forth. Jayflight's blue eyes locked on the prize. He pounce over the prey bitting at the neck ready to hear the crack of the neck. There, the frog was dead, Jayflight dug into the dirt planting the frog under ready to to go hunt some more prey for his clan. He opened his mouth taking in as much as he could. Ah yes, frog, frog, squirrel, and loner. Wait, loner! Jayflight gave a low growl a cat was here that was not from ShadowClan. Jayflight now saw the wimp limping by the Thunderpath. Jayflight ran forward into the direction of were the loner was. He pounced at the cat putting his paw on his chest ready for the cat to plea to let him go.

Midnight glanced over at the cat, and before he knew it, the cat was upon him. He sighed and shut his eyes. "You're probably expecting me to beg for mercy. Well I won't. I'm just a ten-moon old loner who is starving and injured. My siblings and my mother were killed by a badger, so here I am, alone, and forced to wander. I have nothing left to live for." He said. His paw was throbbing and he noticed the wound had opened up again, and was bleeding. Great. He thought. Just what I need. What Midnight said was true, but he did not want to die here. "Please don't kill me...." He said very quietly. It was true, that Midnight had lost his family, and he was starving and injured. But he felt the need to push on.

Jayflight looked at the cat, aw his family is dead well it seems that most cats around here family's are up with StarClan.
"Whats your name loner and also why are you here, do you know anything about the dead plains or are you here to spy on us to help the plains?" Asked Jayflight letting his grip loosen.

Midnight shifted around a little bit and said, "My name is Midnight, and I am here because..... well, I just happened to wander this way." Midnight felt the cats grip loosen a little bit. The young tom wanted to run, but he knew he was too weak. For now, Midnight just stayed where he was, hoping that this cat would spare his life.
He looked up, made eye contact with the cat, and said, "No, I have not heard of these Dead Plains cats." This was true, Midnight had not heard of these cats until now. "Who are they?" He asked. Midnight was frightened, but did not want to show any signs of weakness. He kept a firm gaze while continuing to make eye contact with the cat.

"Sure, I'll go along, the Dead Plains are evil acts who only want this forest and to kill other cats. They only have dark souls, all of them." Said Jayflight looking at the weak cat.
He looked so hungry and weak, maybe he could get him some food.
"Stay right here, you need food or you for sure will be dead." Said Jayflight getting off the tom.

"Thank you...." Midnight said weakly. For once, Midnight was glad that a cat found him. Midnight was shy and normally tried to stay away from most cats. The tom tried to stand up, but he fell on the ground. His injured paw still made it hard to walk. He cringed as he fell on the ground, and saw that his paw was still bleeding. Midnight angrily slammed his other paw against the ground. Why does almost every moment of my life have to be filled with misery?! He thought.
Midnight thought about what this cat had told him about the Dead Plains cats. He had not heard of them until now, and was glad that this cat had told him of the Dead Plains cats. "By the way, what's your name?" He asked while trying to sound friendly.

Jayflight looked back at the cat, he looked so sad and lonely he needs help and some kindness. He stalked away and caught a frog and a rare prey, a black bird he ran back to the weak cat dropped the prey right in front of him. He heard the question, his name well that was simple.
'My name is Jayflight, and you better eat now no more questions and eat." Said Jayflight sitting next to the younger cat licking his injured paw.
"Your paw, I know wheat you need, I was once medicine cat apprentice but I had to stop and be a warrior because of my father. Life makes crazy things happen to us. Why is every cat so sad and not thinking about the good part. My life is good and yours is too, things will get better evil can't stay forever. You seem like a good cat I'll help you if you need it." Said Jayflight with his calm low voice that he using when hes caring.
He walked away and found some spider webs and some poppy seeds for any pain, and some chervil and walked back to the tom.

Midnight's paw was still throbbing, but he tried to ignore the pain. He looked up at the cat and quietly mewed, "Thank you Jayflight." He sat up and looked at the cat one more time before looking down at the frog and the black bird. Midnight instantly started to eat, and he savored the taste. It had been so long since he had a decent meal. He looked back up at Jayflight. "You're right. I need to look at the good parts of my life. Thank you for all of your help."
Jayflight's words rang in Midnight's head.
Why is every cat so sad and not thinking about the good part.
He pondered this for a moment, and thought, He's right. I really do need to look at the good parts in my life. Midnight knew that his life wasn't all filled with misery, even though it felt that way sometimes.

Jayflight looked down on the smaller cat, he was a loner but Jayflight felt that this cat needed help. It's true all the cat he knows had something bad happen to them, like their parent are dead. No one likes them, or they have a disability. Jayflight did have some sad parts in his life, but all the time he looked for the good ones. That always made him feel better, Midnight is still a very young cat.
"So Midnight I hope you see that life has its up and downs, but just do your best and soon better will happen. I wasn't made deputy but Silentstar made a good chose and I now got a great apprentice." He said looking at the sky.
