Who

Coyotepaw, Fallpaw, and Mistypaw

What

Reconnecting between siblings

Where

Tresspass Point where the 3 clan converge, and the neutral space above it (near Fourtrees)

Day

27

Tiptoe through the murk and mire
✧ ⭒ ♦ ⭒ ♖ ⭒ ♦ ⭒ ✧

Duskpaw’s paws tingled with anticipation as he slipped through the ShadowClan camp's boundaries, keeping his steps light and his ears pricked. This was not his first trip out. He knew he shouldn’t be doing this but something deep inside him, a gnawing need for answers, kept pushing him forward. There were faces he hadn’t seen in moons, siblings scattered across the other clans, and Trespass Point offered the slimmest of chances to see them again.

The tunnel beneath the Thunderpath loomed ahead, carrying the strong scent of ShadowClan mixed with an acrid tang from above. Duskpaw stalked forward, slipping through quickly as his paws splashed quietly against the cold, muddy ground. Once he was through, the tension in his shoulders eased, and he shook his pelt, glancing up at the moonlit plains that lay just ahead.

As he neared Trespass Point, Duskpaw’s pace slowed. He settled on a patch of neutral ground where the territories of RiverClan, WindClan, and ThunderClan converged, partially hidden in the brush beside the path there. Every now and then, his gaze flitted from one side to another, wondering if he’d catch a glimpse of a familiar shape - one of his siblings appearing, as if called by the same urge. For a moment he allowed himself to hope, though he knew the odds were slim.

If one of them happened to come by, he wanted to look sure of himself, like he belonged here. Besides, a part of him thought that maybe patrolling this space might mean something - a small but bold step toward reclaiming the family ties that had been taken from him so long ago.

Fallpaw allowed his legs to carry him back to Fourtrees once again. Having left the nursery and with no one sharing the apprentices' den, he found it rather easy to slip away from camp when he wasn't with his mentor. Sometimes, he stayed close to camp and simply explored around the heather patches, but at least a few times, when the nighttime had felt particularly lonely, he'd made the trek all the way to Fourtrees.

He had vague memories of the night they he and his litter mates had been abandoned there. Since that night, he hadn't gotten a sign of any of his kin, except for that one moment he'd glanced the cat he knew to be his sire, when Fawnbriar had become leader. Fallpaw plodded into the clearing with these memories, lost in thought. He couldn't remember much that was solid of that one night, but the three or four times he'd come back here, he tended to pace around the clearing, trying to pinpoint the exact spot he'd last been with his siblings. He flicked his dark-furred tail, taking in the faded scents of many different cats left behind in a moment of low vigilance.

The lilac she-cat felt the panic seep through her as the air around her turned ominously still. Only the faint rustles of low-lying animals, or the fluttering wings of the occasional bird could be heard, along with Coyotepaw's thundering heart. Hunting with Leopardrose had turned awry when the young apprentice found herself too absorbed in a track, loosing all sense of her location, along with that of her mentor. She knew she couldn't have gone far, and that worse case she could wait by the owl tree nearby, but that didn't stop Coyotepaw from feeling undeniably anxious. Here she was, alone once again like all those moons ago when she had been forcefully stripped from her family, and before that, stripped from her mothers love by a faintly familiar tom. She could still remember her screams as she clung onto her mother's lifeless body as another tugged her away. She had been the last one to be removed. 

'Leopardrose?' she called out, her voice echoing through the layers of trees ahead. 'Leopardrose? Can you hear me?' It was the loudest she had spoken in a while, practically yelling. All hope of catching any prey was gone now, but she didn't care. Coyotepaw would rather go hungry than be alone. Her paws trailed across the forest floor as she made her way closer to the border, somewhere much more familiar. She could see the faint outline of fourtrees in the distance, a place, that while Coyotepaw felt as though she didn't belong there, but also felt closer to home then ever. Perhaps it was because she knew it was her one passing chance to see her family again. Pushing her way through the thicker parts of the forest, Coyotepaw emerged in what she recognised as trespass point, though the instant she caught sight of a dark figure moving across one of the other sides she shrunk back into the bushes, nearly turning and fleeing.

Duskpaw’s ears pricked as he caught the faintest echo of a voice drifting through the night air - a sound that both startled and thrilled him. Someone was nearby. It wasn’t uncommon to hear other cats near Trespass Point, but this voice tugged at something deeper, sparking a hope he thought he’d left behind. His eyes darted toward the source, and then he caught movement...

Could it be...?

He swallowed, feeling the weight of uncertainty and fear twist inside him. There was a faint chance he was wrong, that these were just two more strangers, but something in him felt sure. He crept forward, staying low, his gaze fixed on them. Just close enough for him to catch a scent - a scent he hadn’t forgotten.

Drawing in a breath to steady himself, Duskpaw took a step forward, deliberately making his presence known. His voice was barely above a whisper, but he hoped it would be enough.

“Waterfall...paw? Coyote...paw?”

He took a careful step out of the shadows, his cornflower-blue eyes flicking between them, searching for recognition. Duskpaw’s chest tightened with a mixture of longing and uncertainty. Would they remember him? Or was he only holding onto something that wasn’t there anymore?

Fallpaw's ears perked at the sound of someone else through the trees. He paused in his pacing, wondering if he was caught. Was he not supposed to be here on his own? Was it something he could get in trouble for?

Another movement in the clearing made his breath catch. He squinted at the dark grey tom, and then his eyes widened. "Murk?"

He hesitated for a moment, and found himself bounding over to his littermate. "You're here too? I've missed you and the others so much.I can't believe it!"

That voice. It was a voice she could never forget. She was still shrinking back into the tree line, but she stopped and hesitated at the voice, her orange eyes gleaming out into the darkness. The other cat spoke too, and Coyotepaw felt her heart burst. It really was them. Her littermates. They were here, right here in front of her where she could see, smell and hear them. She stifled a sob before leaping out of the bushes, tumbling Murk over. They were as big as each other, while Waterfall still remained on the more average cat size. She clung onto Murk hopelessly, squeezing her eyes shut before taking a breath and letting him go.

Coyotepaw then turned to Waterfall, and then pounced on him, giving him the exact same treatment she gave to Murk. She almost felt lightheaded from overwhelm. She never thought she would see her family ever again, but here they were, right in front of her. 'I never thought I would see any of you again' she sobbed, her claws digging into the dirt below, it was almost like she was mad now. 'Where is Misty? Have any of you seen her? We can go find her and then we can leave together, and live like we used too. Maybe we can find our sire and live with him' Coyotepaw rambled. With her sibling she was an entirely different cat. No more fear and anxiety, just her natural self. It never occurred to her though that maybe her siblings liked their new homes. 

She took a small step back to recollect herself, her fluffy lilac tail lashing back and forth. 'How have you guys been? Are you healthy? Taken care of well? Safe and loved?' All concepts of safety had left Coyotepaw's mind, for she was speaking at a normal volume. Hopefully no one else heard her..

Duskpaw barely had time to process the flurry of emotions before his brother bounded toward him, calling him by the name he hadn’t heard in moons. His chest tightened at Fallpaw’s recognition, and for a moment he was frozen in place. Then came Coyotepaw - her familiar lilac pelt flashing as she barreled into him with enough force to knock the air from his lungs.

“Coyote - !” He wheezed, tumbling over before catching himself and leaning into the embrace she offered. Her warmth and the sheer ferocity of her presence overwhelmed him, but he didn’t pull away. When she finally released him he stumbled to his paws, shaking out his fur and blinking between them both.

“I... I didn’t think I’d actually see you two here.” His voice was steady, but there was an undertone of disbelief, his tail flicking back and forth. “I came hoping - well, I wasn’t sure what I was hoping for, but this... this is more than I could’ve imagined.”

When she spoke of leaving together, the naive hope in her voice made him look away. " As much as I’d like to run off and be a family again, it’s... not that simple anymore.” He hesitated, searching their faces. His gaze lingered on Coyotepaw as he took a careful step closer, his tone softening. “I’m okay. I’m... been learning a lot. How about you? What about you, Fallpaw?” He turned to his brother, his blue eyes shadowed with concern. “Do your clans treat you well? Are you happy there?”

The words felt odd on his tongue, like he was asking permission to let them go again. But he couldn’t deny the bitter truth: they’d all built lives without each other, and whatever came next wouldn’t be simple. Even if he were to find their sire and ask them to live with him - they'd still technically be ShadowClan.

Fallpaw nearly leapt back as another cat flew out of the treeline, his shock quickly subsiding into a bubbling laugh. “Coyote!” he exclaimed, rubbing his head against his sister’s as she barrelled into him. “I know, I know, me neither!”

When she let him breathe again, he was flexing his paws with excitement. He brushed over his siblings’ comment on their family, distracted by his brother’s next questions. “Er–yes, I’m okay and well and everything. My name's Fallpaw now,” he said. “I guess 'Waterfallpaw' was too much of a mouthful or something. It's been a little lonely, if I'm being honest, but now–well now I just can’t believe I’m seeing either of you! I-I haven’t seen Misty, but she’s in Riverclan, isn’t she?”

He felt like he was rambling, but it was too much for him to hold back. There was so much he wanted to tell and ask them, and this was the first time they'd seen each other in moons. His previous moping mood was entirely forgotten.

'What do you mean, 'not that simple?' Don't you want our old life back? Where we were loved? We never even got a choice, we were just thrown into these clans filled with nothing but mistrust! They won't accept you. They never will.' Coyotepaw's voice started to waver at the end of her sentence. She didn't know what to believe anymore. No one had outright shunned her in ThunderClan, and there were cats like Bravesong and Leopardrose she really did care about, and knew cared about her too, but nothing would stop the feeling of not belonging. 

Her siblings didn't feel the same way, and the lilac she-cat did her best to hide so, but her attempts were fruitless. She turned her head, looking away and too the floor. Maybe Misty would understand. 

No. Not Misty, probably Mistypaw now, just like Waterfall was now Fallpaw, and Murk was probably Murkpaw. It felt like a thorn had pierced her heart, and the confusion made Coyotepaw clench her jaw, a little harder than she meant to as well because she clashed her teeth together before quietly muttering a curse. She wanted to answer their questions, participate in relaxed chatter. Oh yeah, I'm Coyotepaw now. Training is good, my mentor is Leopardrose and blah blah... but she couldn't bring herself to say anything more. Instead she just turned her orange gaze back to her brothers, looking at them hopelessly. 

Why couldn't she just enjoy the moment....

Duskpaw felt his ears flatten slightly at Coyotepaw's outburst, her words cutting deeper than he expected. Her frustration, her longing - it mirrored something he’d buried deep, but hearing it aloud only made the ache sharper.

“I know it wasn’t fair, Coyotepaw.” His voice was low. “None of this was what we wanted. I've been trying to find our sire... And, maybe it’s not all bad.” He hesitated, his tail lashing as he struggled to find the right words. “I’m learingd things I never thought I could. And maybe the cats here aren’t perfect some are just plain annoying - but they’re not all bad either.”

He glanced at Fallpaw, trying to draw strength from his brother’s bright, hopeful energy. His chest tightened at the mention of Misty—Mistypaw now, surely. Was she struggling as much as Coyotepaw? Or had she found her own way to belong?

“You’re right...” Duskpaw finally sighed, his gaze returning to Coyotepaw. “I'm called Duskpaw now...It’s not the same. And maybe it never will be. But... that doesn’t mean we have to lose each other. I can’t change what’s happened, but... we’re here now. Together. Let’s not waste this chance.”

His gaze lingered on Coyotepaw, silently willing her to let herself feel the joy of their reunion, even if just for a heartbeat.

The reality of their situation loomed over Fallpaw like the four trees around them. He had thought so often of how unfair it had been for them to be separated, how little their blood-kin apparently cared for them--not even bothering to check in on how they were doing.

He couldn't help but give a dour look to his brother as he finished speaking. Was clan life really so different from any other cat outside twoleg homes? They all hunted and defended territory, from what he had heard. "We would've learned the same things if our mother hadn't died," he muttered. His upset began to build up even more. "I just don't know why they separated us! They couldn't have at least let us all stay together?"

Her frustration was clouding any rational thinking, and the lilac apprentice was pawing at the ground, clawing up chunks of grass as her tail lashed behind her. 'Well.. let me come to one of your clans then. Surely if they took one of you, they will take another? I'm all alone in ThunderClan. They are nice and all but its not the same.' Leopardrose could get a better, more skilled apprentice, and maybe Bravesong could have a family of his own. Larchsong wouldn't have to worry about her either. She was circling her brothers now, her thoughts a jumbled mess as her face scrunched. It was the lingering gaze of Duskpaw that made her pause for a moment. She held her brother's gaze before turning away, taking a shaky breath. Some things just weren't meant to be, and Coyotepaw had to learn how to accept that.

'I'm sorry.. to the both of you.Just enjoy the moment. Enjoy the reunion and be happy. I will see them again, we are just... neighbors now. Family doesn't always have to be together, and sometimes families aren't meant to be together. Maybe that is my fate. 

Perhaps Coyotepaw just needed to restart. She shot her siblings a soft smile, her eyes flickering with a tiny hint of warmth for the first time since everything was taken from her. 'Yeah, I'm Coyotepaw. No silly name changes from me. It's really really nice to see you both again. I won't ruin this anymore. Though, do consider taking me home with you' she added, with a tiny humorous lilt at the end. ShadowClan and WindClan would never take her in, but a cat could dream.

Duskpaw blinked, his chest tightening at Coyotepaw's words. The desperation in her voice and the flicker of warmth in her gaze...For a moment, the weight of their conversation lifted, replaced by a spark of mischief.

“Well, ShadowClan does have plenty of room...” His whiskers twitched with a faint grin. “I mean, they’d probably welcome a scrappy she-cat with open paws. I bet they wouldn't even care that you're my sister from ThunderClan, and no one would bat an eye.”

He stopped, facing her, his blue eyes glinting with mock seriousness. “Of course, you’d have to hunt in the marshes, and, oh... have you ever had frog before?” His tail flicked playfully as he took a step closer, tilting his head.

The humor faded slightly, but his tone stayed light. “I’m kidding - mostly. But... if it ever gets too much in ThunderClan, or WindClan - maybe Palestar can make room for you."

Fallpaw sat himself down, and gave his sister a comforting lick at her ear. It pained him to be apart, too, but he knew how much the clans valued their individual identities. “I mean…” he said, in addition to Murkpaw’s offer, “I’m the only one in training with Windclan right now. I–I could ask Fawnbriar?”

With a soft headbutt to her shoulder, he added, “But, I’d also come back here to visit with you anytime.”
