Alabaster's Tale
"We are strong! We can take it down after the threat comes!" Someone else yowled over the crowd, "We would win for sure!"
"At the cost of how many lives?! We must figure this out before they take over the forest!" Some screamed, it could have been sensible, if their problem was.
"How are we even sure this is real? Why hasn't Mystic Colony gotten a sign? Their supposed to be the fortune tellers or whatever!"
"Everyone knows it been a LOOONG time since Mystic got a real sign!"
"What if the threat is already here? Our territory could already be endangered!" Shouts continued for who knows how long. They just got louder and louder and louder...
All of a sudden the shouts stopped as a cat yelled over the rest, "I figured it out! I know who it is!"
"Wha.. What?" Was she going crazy? Alabaster looked around for the source of the mysterious voice. The voice didn't come again. She took a moment she examine her blue-grey pelt. She saw that she was bleeding from where she had scraped herself on the tree...
Suddenly the voice came again and a fluffy tuxedo cat with yellow eyes stepped from the bushes. "You don't look like your from around here." His scent was strange, and not just because he seemed to be a wild cat. "I'm Coco by the way. Why don't you come over here and tell me your name?"
Alabaster cautiously made her way over to the new cat. "I'm Alabaster.." She said warily.
"Hmm... You say your name is Alabaster? That's a good name for you if you don't mind me saying." He looked over the scrape on her back. "I saw what happened, are you alright?" the mysterious tom, Coco, didn't wait for an answer. He started to put an odd looking plant over her wounds, it was green with a bright red middle.
Alabaster flinched away, even though her wound did feel much better. "If you don't want me to do it, I think I saw some golden seal over that way too." Alabaster nodded and headed off over to the patch that was growing on their side of the road. She was already feeling better so Alabaster decided to keep the 'golden seal' on her for later.
She didn't know why she was already so trusting of this cat, but she felt like Coco was very reliable. "No offense but I don't think those humans want you back,so can you hunt?"
"Uh yeah I guess." She replied.
"Hmm go catch one of those mice over there." Coco replied. Alabaster tilted her head after started stalking clumsily up to the mouse. She pounced, coming just short of it. Sighing, Alabaster tried again, happily she bit down on the mouse's throat and trotted back over the Coco triumphantly.
"Go ahead and eat," Coco sat down and wrapped his tail around his paws. "You must be hungry."
"Yeah.." Alabaster sat, quickly finishing the mouse in a couple of bites. It was a strange taste... but not half bad. She wondered if there were any fish around here, Alabaster had often enjoyed fishing in the neighbor's pond.
"If your going to survive out here your going to have to find a colony," Coco said, "I know that each one of the colonies would be happy to have you. Were closest to Forest Colony, how about them?"
"Uh... sure?" Alabaster didn't really know what he was talking about but she was sure she was about to find out. Coco motioned for her to follow him. Alabaster could tell, whatever decision she had just made, might have changed her entire life.
Prologue
The cats sat in a circle, most of them were yelling, some were rolling their eyes. "We've been at this for days! Can't we just accept what's coming?" Some of them said, shouts got louder."We are strong! We can take it down after the threat comes!" Someone else yowled over the crowd, "We would win for sure!"
"At the cost of how many lives?! We must figure this out before they take over the forest!" Some screamed, it could have been sensible, if their problem was.

Chapter One
Alabaster felt her pelt scrape the asphalt as she was thrown from the car. She skidded forward before hitting a tree and getting knocked out cold. "Hey... What are you doing out here?" A strange voice woke her, she blinked open her eyes. Everything hurt."Wha.. What?" Was she going crazy? Alabaster looked around for the source of the mysterious voice. The voice didn't come again. She took a moment she examine her blue-grey pelt. She saw that she was bleeding from where she had scraped herself on the tree...

Chapter Two
Alabaster and Coco had arrived not too much later at Forest Colony. He had showed her to her den, which was where she was going to be living from now on. "Well this is where we part ways, Alabaster. It was nice to meet you. I'm sure we'll see each other again soon. You've had a busy day, you better get some rest." Suddenly there was a flash of many bright lights and Coco had disappeared...
Eyes wide, Alabaster ran over to a puddle right outside her den. Coco had told her to get some rest, but she was glad she had looked. Before her stood a cat she didn't know, she had grey eyes and medium fur like her own, but that was where the similarities ended. Her fur was sky blue, instead of just blue-grey. She had white ears and a white underside, her paws were dark grey.
Maybe I'm more tired than I thought... her head whispered. Perhaps it had to do with Coco and his magical teleportation?
