//------------------------------// // Chapter 2 // Story: My Little Warriors: Fallen Stars // by Truzzle //------------------------------// Chapter 2 From where she swung upside down, Pinkie Pie could see all five of her friends... but they were cats, like she was. She could also see a black cat that Twilight had been talking to moments before. Then she looked up to see shining stars and a full moon shining above her head. Hey, she thought, This place is the opposite of Equestria! After swinging in the tree for some time, she stopped, giggled, and called out, "I'm up here!!!" Almost immediately Fluttershy looked up. She said something, but it was too quiet for Pinkie to hear from where she was. Fluttershy's fur as a cat was a pale gold tabby, so that she almost looked the color of the inside of a banana. "Y'all need'a come down from there." Applejack yowled. Applejack's cat fur was a gold tabby that was tinted ginger. "Look at the moon!" yowled Twilight. "It's full! It's supposed to be a new moon!" Twilight was a blue-gray cat that was very close to being tinted purple. When the others began looking at the moon, the black cat spoke up. "We don't have time for this!" she yowled, louder than the others had. "My Clan just got back from a Gathering, but the dawn patrols will be going out after too long. If they catch you out alone, you're in worse trouble than you are with me." The black cat hesitated before going on. "My name is Nightleaf. I don't know how you came here, but I think I know why you came here." Pinkie hopped out of the tree, her pale red-brown fur a streak of color. She happily bounced up to Nightleaf "Hi!" she meowed. "I'm Pinkie Pie!" "Odd name..." murmured Nightleaf. "Nice to meet you, Pinkie Pie." With that, she swept her tail, beckoning the others to follow her. Nightleaf and Twilight were in the lead talking, while Rarity and Fluttershy stayed in the back. Pinkie Pie was in the middle with Applejack and Rainbow Dash. Rarity's fur was white and Rainbow Dash's fur was blue-gray. After white seemed like years, or maybe just a few minutes, the group reached a barrier of thorn bushes. Nightleaf had turned now and was beginning to speak. "This is WoodClan's Clan camp. Nearly everyone is sleeping, but I'm sure Flamestar is still up, so I'll announce your arrival to him." With that, she flicked her ears and went through the thorn bush barrier. Slowly, the six pony-cats followed, and gasped at the place they found before them.
