Curate, connect, and discover
Here is the rest of this mini comic for my AU~
Pitpaw and Darkpaw are apprentices! (And 8 moons old, so somewhat close to the size of full grown cats, but still slightly smol. I will probably make full color references that better show their designs sometime :)
Now that Pitpaw is older and has shown to be a very promising and strong apprentice, he goes on a mission to finally confront Star Pantherblaze about kitnapping Darkkit. Palelight can also guide him telepathically when he needs the help, as they share a powerful connection that allows Palelight to see his path through his eyes.
He is very worried for Darkkit, as he stopped talking telepathically after month of being in CalamityClan. Pitpaw and Star Palelight talk about what may have happened to him, fearing the worst and hoping for the best.
He unexpectedly finds both Pantherblaze AND Darkpaw, and is shocked to see that he's allegedly chosen to serve CalamityClan / the Darkworld clans (this is a Dark Forest / Underworld word mix here). Palelight tells Pitpaw to be prepared to fight him.
Seeing that he has to fight his brother and tired of Star Pantherblaze's constant bossing him around, Darkpaw snaps and attacks her, knocking her off the tree and shoving her into the tall rock Pitpaw is standing on, which takes one of her lives (and possibly all of them.)
I did not want to draw a fight scene lol
Also Darkpaw sees what looks like a collar and immediately dubs his brother "Kittypit" lol. There are no kittypets on their island, but they know what they are :P (Darkpaw also doesn't have anything against them, but just really hates the idea of a collar.)
The twins run as fast they can out of CalamityClan and Pitpaw asks if Darkpaw will come back to LightClan with him, still hoping that he might, but also knowing that Darkpaw has probably made up his mind. And he has, no convincing can be done.
I like to imagine him saying he's "no clan's warrior" is this version of "servant to no other than himself". He's still a warrior that will live in a clan, but also not sworn to one in particular.
Which means that even though he's going to live in NatureClan, he's gonna be a future "Warrior of Nature", not a "NatureClan warrior". Star Vineblossom (Viridi) will just have to put up with this now xD
Extra facts:
-Due to the stress of having to put on a reluctant facade for his survival, Darkpaw's fur is not in the best condition. This is why his tail isn't very fluffy anymore :( (It will be better once he moves into NatureClan. It won't be as fluffy as Pitpaw's tail, but it'll be healthier ^^)
-Star Vineblossom will be Darkpaw's new mentor! Always take in the sassy lost child lol
