Upbringing

The original story is much too gruesome/abusive, so I'll be majorly alternating it to be more befitting of possible younger crowd. This'll be written on my downtime, should I have some.

Prologue
The raid.

It was like a blur of silver as the two brothers collided, claws meeting flesh at their impact, lips peeled back to reveal blood-thirsty teeth. There was a hunger for flesh and vengeance in their eyes, and not a drop of familiarity, no recognition that they shared the same blood. They were brothers no longer.

But they weren't the only ones.

All around the DawnClan camp, feline tackled feline, fur flying, blood raining on the ground as if a storm was upon them. The Revolution was out to take prisoners once more, but they had one cat in particular in their mind. They did not wish to claim a Medicine Cat, not their leader, not even a 'typical' warrior. No, they wanted Rapscallion's brother: Moosetail.

As needle-sharp claws penetrated his skin, the silver tabby warrior let out a screech of pain, tearing himself away from the rebellion leader once more. His side was stinging, and his fur was now clumped and matted with his own blood. Rapscallion took a bold step forward, a smug expression on his features as he glowered down at his DawnClan brother.

"Pathetic." He hissed, although his voice rippled with disappointment rather than relentless aggression. "Have you given in, Moosetail? Or are you thirsty for another round of beating?" Rapscallion sent him a toothy, blood-stained grin, almost as if he was hoping Moosetail would select the latter option.

"I'll never join you, brother! I'd rather die!" The DawnClan warrior staggered to his paws, his vision fuzzy. Yet, he still managed to target Rapscallion and send him a chillingly cold glare, shoulders tensed as he prepared to initiate another round of short-termed fighting. So, Rapscallion leaped at him once more, claws outstretched before they sank into Moosetail's skin. Moosetail rolled, and another skirmish began, but this one was interrupted short.

"Stop, please!" The heavily pregnant queen, Skylark, exploded from the nursery with a panicked voice. The pair of brothers flung themselves apart, each glaring at Skylark. "Please, don't leave my kits fatherless. Let him go, Rapscallion!" Never before had the ruthless queen spoke in such a begging tone, practically collapsing on the ground.

"Very well, Skylark." Rapscallion began, straightening himself as if to appear proper and responsible. "I won't kill him, and The Revolution will leave you sympathetic camp without drawing another drop of blood." As if they were brainwashed, all Revolution warriors ceased their fighting, drawing closer to their leader as if he was their Queen Bee.

"Thank you..." Skylark gasped, her body drooping out of relief from Rapscallion's ominously comforting words.

"But not without him." It was then that, like a swarm of vicious bees, the Revolution members bombarded Moosetail, fell upon him like a heavy rain. Skylark cried out in protest, but there was no stopping the Revolution. "Don't kill him, my friends. He has much more use to us." They dragged off the hissing and spitting warrior, while Rapscallion smirked over at Skylark before drawing closer. He pressed his muzzle against her ear, his breath hot against her skin.

"Don't worry, Skylark. For as long as I live, your precious little maggots known as 'kits' will not be fatherless."
