This is the legend of the mighty Rockclan apprentices, Markedpaw and Maskedpaw who went through terrible dangers and even sacrificed themeslves for their clans.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A long time ago, in the vast plains of Rockclan, two young cheetahs were born. They were different from all other cheetahs though. Markedpaw was much larger than any cheetah cub before him. Maskedpaw was a bit smaller than the normal cheetah cub, but she was much smarter. They also were not as furry as any cheetah before them. As they grew, the medicine cats learnt of a terrifying prophecy. It foretold of a terrible danger. It told of all the clans coming together to form a super clan to be called Jungleclan. It would mean disaster for everyone. After many moons, Maskedkit became Maskedpaw and Markedkit became Markedpaw. It became clear that they were swifter, stronger, braver, and even wiser than any other cheetah. They could throw even the strongest cheetah off of them. The clan decided that with these two on their side, they would never have to join Jungleclan. One gathering, Nightclan proposed to the other clans the forming of Jungleclan. Flameclan had already joined them. They said that any clan who did not join them would be killed. Forestclan join imedietly. We shall never join you! had roared Rockclan leader, Tearstar. Then you shall die! retorted Nightclan leader, Bloodstar. It seemed they were doomed. When Jungleclan forced a suprise attack upon Rockclan, Maskedheart and Markedsize were there to fight. Everycat could see that Jungleclan was losing against the formidable warriors. When the fight broke apart, Forestclan leader, Barkstar, was dead. Forestclan and Flameclan both abandonned Nightclan after that and Nightclan fled back to their territory.
Maskedheart and Markedsize were both congratulated and cheered and became honorary warriors. They were given their own den and their own fresh-kill pile. One day, Tearstar took ill and no one knew where to find the right herbs to save her. The dangers were terrible to go fetch such a root so Midnightleaf, the medicine cat, sent Maskedheart and Markedsize to find it. They traveled far and went through many dangers. Maskedheart got shot, but Markedsize healed her. Markedsize fell through a patch of ice, but Maskedheart saved him. They crossed and active volcano, ended up falling off the side of a mountain, being atacked by rogues, pecked by vultures. They eventually found the herb. Then they had to cross 2 bogs, swim a huge river over 20 miles across, get through a place of M'an without being seen, escape the stomping feet of elephants and travel over several deserts to return home. When they got back, their leader was on the brink of death. They healed her and told her their story.
Once again, Jungleclan was formed and went to attack Rockclan. Maskedheart and Markedsize were starting to grow old and were not as quick or strong as they used to be. They were the smartest cats alive. But they were weak and injured. When Jungleclan arrived, they fought with all their strength. The battle was ended when a cry arose from the centre of the clearing. Maskedheart and Markedsize had both been killed. They lay on the ground, battered and scarred, back to back, the gleam of fight hung in their unseeing eyes. No cat knew who killed them except the cats who did. And every now and then, a descendant of them would pop up with a remarkarble ability.
