 ❁Purekit"I try to live true to myself, but...somehow, I'm living a lie."═══════════════════════
[Purekit watched Waterpaw pad off and blinked. She continued staring after him.
She remained silent.
Soemthing was happening.
Her pupils retracted (( the opposite of dialated...? )). She felt a strange feeling.]
"Honeykit," she said, still staring after Waterpaw, "don't trust Fathom."
Still staring after Waterpaw, her eyes narrowed, and she hissed softly, "There's something sinister in him and it's coming out."
[Then, she blinked, and her pupils dialated. She shook her head and giggled to herself.]
"I bet Roseleaf tastes like a rose more than you taste like honey," she said cheerfully as if nothing had ever happened. ═══════════════════════

 H o n e y k i t“A joke is a very serious thing.”___________________________“Fathom..?”
[Honeykit whispered to himself, staring first at Purekit and then in the direction of Fathom's den. His leader would never do anything to harm NightClan, would he? He shook his head, clearing his mind of such thoughts. He had noticed Fathom's strange behavior lately, but he didn't think anyone else besides him had really caught it. Nonetheless, it got him curious now. Honeykit promised himself to speak to his new leader sometime soon.]___________________________ . .

   [Fathom coughed. He had inhaled water from the puddle on accident while being absorbed in his thoughts. He stood strait, shaking dust from his pelt, and looked around. He saw Honeykit and Purekit outside the nursery. They were conversing about something, and Honeykit's face fell as Purekit's took a strange expression.
Purekit's gaze swept the clearing and rested on Fathom. Her eyes narrowed, and a look of hatred passed through her eyes. Fathom stared back unflinchingly.
Why do you despise me so, little one? he wondered to himself. Purekit snorted.
Suddenly, a voice ripped through his mind.
Kill her.
Startled, Fathom felt a malice come over him, and he took a step forward, claws unsheathed.
He quickly regained control and pushed the voice down, sheathing his claws. Purekit watched all the while, her hair on end, and eyes narrowed.
Fathom sighed to himself, troubled. He looked away and stared uncomfortably at a tree for a moment. When he looked back, Purekit was right in front of him. She had walked over. He blinked.
She stared at him for a while, saying nothing. Fathom ruffled his pelt awkwardly.
Finally, he spoke.]
Hesitantly, he said softly, "Why do you hate me?"
Purekit stared, unblinking back at him for a while, then finally said, "I don't hate you, Fathom. I hate the other spirit inside of you."
[Fathom stared, shocked. He felt as if the breath had been taken away from him.]
"Be careful," the kit whispered. "It's getting stronger."
[Fathom stared after her as she padded away, back towards the nursery. She stopped, still standing, facing away from Honeykit as if she was sulking.
Fathom shook his head. What was happening to him?
Kill her.
Fathom flinched as the voice hissed in his mind. He realized it hated Purekit with a passion. Fathom shuddered, and looked away, trying to hold back the panic rising in him.
He felt a strange longing for Leapordpaw, for her cool silver eyes to freeze all the turmoil in his heart and replace it with warmth...but he had sent her off...perhaps to her death...]

H o n e y k i t“A joke is a very serious thing.”___________________________“Fathom?”
[Honeykit mewed. He'd padded up to his leader, standing a bit off to his side, watching Fathom's crimson eyes. Something felt wrong, he just knew it. Purekit was acting vague and distant, and now Fathom looked like the slightest crack of a leaf would make him jump. The golden tom-kit's big emerald eyes sparkled with concern as they watched Purekit, then Fathom.]___________________________

Dapplekit [Dapplekit looked at her brother and blinked.] "I miss our mother. Where is Roseleaf?" [she mewed looking down. Her tail curled around her as she ended. She gave a quick lick to her brothers ear. She turned and licked Honeykits ear as well.]

Foxfur
[Watching Fathom and the little kit converse, Foxfur got a strange feeling. He decided to confront that feeling, and walked up to his leader]
"Fathom," he said, dipping his head respectfully, "Forgive me for noticing this...but...you seem a little...off.. Is there something wrong?"
[Why should he confide in you? You're just a warrior? Not even a senior warrior! Just back away slowly. He tried to ignore his worries, and sat up straight, not going to back down]

[silverkit looked at fathom,she was a little scared of him, then again she is scared by most things.Like the foriegn scent drifting up her nostrils, she ran over to dapplekit] "do you smell that?"[she squeaked] "since my name is silverkit, would I taste like water or wind?"[she mewed drifting from the subject of smells before dapplekit could answer].

[Fathom blinked, glancing at the two cats who approached him with worried glances. He quickly settled his fur down and sighed.
"Hello Honeykit, Foxfur," he greeted. "Nothing's wrong in particular...I'm just worried about the cats I sent on the journey. My own apprentice and my deputy. And the others...and the fact that I still have yet to recieve my nine lives from StarClan."
[Fathom chuckled to himself.]
"For some reason, Purekit seems to think I'm plotting something...she hates me...but I'm only worried for Night Clan...nothing but leader troubles," Fathom lied.
[His face remained blank, and his gaze expressionless. He was impossible to read at the moment, and he retained every ounce of worry and fear in the back of his mind.]
"You two shouldn't worry over me. I'll be fine," he lied again. "I need to put a hunting group together anyway...to catch some prey. Foxfur, who is free to hunt?"
[Fathom hadn't been paying attention to who was still in camp, so he asked the warrior next to him. Fathom was too tired to worry about how unleaderly he was acting...]
(( Lol...unleaderly...|D ))

H o n e y k i t“A joke is a very serious thing.”___________________________[Honeykit's pale green eyes missed nothing. He could detect the slightest twitch of a whisker on Fathom's face, even though there were none. His voice was steady, believeable, trustworthy, admirable, even. He didn't flinch at all, kept a straight face through his entire speech...Honeykit wasn't satisfied.]
He's a good liar...But I suppose this isn't anything I should stick my nose into. Maybe once I'm the medicine cat apprentice...Perhaps then I could consult him directly about these things...
[Honeykit sighed, tilting his head at Fathom in a vague way of telling him that he was not content with his words. Either way, he stood up, glancing back at Fathom, and began padding towards the nursery entrance.]
“Alright Fathom...Whatever you say.”
[Honeykit padded softly and quietly past Purekit, who seemed to be frozen in more sort of strange trance. Again, he decided that it wasn't his business; this was for Fathom and Purekit to figure out. Honeykit padded into the nursery and to his nest, which was about a couple tail-lengths from the nearest queen. He didn't drink milk anymore; he was old enough to eat solid food, and to become an apprentice. The thought raked his mind and heart with its claws as Honeykit curled up and fell asleep.]___________________________

Foxfur
[Foxfur flicked his ears, knowing Fathom was lying. Is that how you wanna play? He smiled slightly, acting cheerful]
"I'm sure you'll make a great leader. Every new leader has worries like that. Every warrior that isn't on the journey is free, I think"
[Something's up, Fathom, and I'm going to find out what it is]

 Waterpaw
[Waterpaw watched the little scene with mild interest.
He always knew there was something lurking beneath those crimson(?) coloured eyes but he didn't think it would ever be something bad.
He flicked his ears deep in thought.
Shaking away his doubts he padded easily over to Fathom and Foxfur.]
"Greetings Foxfur, may I steal Fathom for just a little while?" he mewed politely.
[His green-grey eyes flashed to Foxfur's face for approval.]

Foxfur
[Not entirely convinced by Fathom's story, he turned to Waterpaw, nodding]
"Of course, Waterpaw. Fathom, if you need me, I'll be over there"
[Dipping his head, he turned and padded away]

[Fathom sighed inwardly.
It's unlikely they believed that, but at least it bought me some time to figure this out... he thought to himself.
They're getting too suspicious...kill them.
Fathom reeled inwardly, then snapped, Stop telling me to kill my clanmates! I will never conceed to it! Leave me alone, you demon!
The voice inside his head snarled, but slowly faded away. Fathom could still feel its presence, watching, but it kept silent.
Fathom had kept his face blank during all of it, and he turned to Waterpaw, slightly curious.]
"Greetings, Waterpaw," he said. "What have you come to me for?"

[silverkit licked dapplekit and thought for a while] "I don't know what you taste like" [she giggled as cloud came over] "dapplekit should taste like dapplekit no?" [he yawned] "if she tasted like another cat she should be worried" [he said sleepily and walked off] "he's always tired" [silverkit watched him go, anger flared in her eyes] "I wonder who elses dreams he has invaded!"[she hissed before mentally biting her tounge] "I shouldn't talk like that, he saved my life"
