When the sky was made of amethyst

And all the stars looked just like little fish

It was dusk. The deep lilac sky seemed to almost blend in with the indigo lake. Cold stars twinkled overhead. Violetflame stood next to Splashpelt, unstirring, her dark gaze fixed. Splashpelt was a warrior of PineClan, and Violetflame was a new warrior of ShadeClan.

And they weren't supposed to be out on that dark evening.

"Nice night," Splashpelt said coolly.

"Is that any way to talk to me now?" Violetflame said, her eyes pleading.

"I don't love you. PineClan comes first," Splashpelt said simply.

"Then why do this?" she wailed.

Splashpelt only sighed.

Violetflame slumped onto the ground.

"You think I'd want you? You think I'd want you with your lunatic father and dead mother? Your dead littermates? Your ugly cream pelt and pale eyes?" Splashpelt hissed.

Violetflame hiccuped as tears slid down her cheeks. But she stood up to face him.

Now, instead of sadness, Violetflame felt anger. How could he hurt her like this? Fire burned in her spirit. Black flames, threatening to quench all of the good in her.

You should learn when to go

You should learn how to say no

Violetflame lashed out with her claws unsheathed. Splashpelt swatted her aside, and three her down on the ground, baring his teeth.

Then he stopped suddenly. "I can't do this. I can't do this to the cat that I would happily have bear my kits." Then he brushed his muzzle against hers.

But Violetflame's trust in him was vanquished.

"Go," she said, "Get away from me!"

"Not until I get what I want," he hissed.

"What?"

"I need the secrets of ShadeClan! At first, I thought I could weasel out secrets from you. But now, I realize I must do it by force. As soon as I bring them back to PineClan, the plan will be complete. Where the Clans won't rule unjustly, favoring the weak. I'm not saying the weak are evil. I'm saying that all cats are equal! It will be great, but first the unjust ShadeClan must be eliminated! It will be a great new era!"

Violetflame narrowed her eyes and wriggled out from under him. Shadows fell over her heart. How could he use her like he did? And then she made her choice.

Might last a day yeah

Mine is forever

Might last a day, yeah

Well mine is forever

She leaped at him, claws outstretched. Her weight was meager, but she had caught him across the face. Blood stained her paws.

In retaliation, Splashpelt knocked her down, participating in Violetflame's plan. Without knowing.

For as he had pinned her, his throat was exposed.

When they get what they want

They never want it again

Violetkit saw nothing but utter darkness. She could feel the warm fur of her mother as she pressed against her to suckle, and the dry moss beneath her.

Suddenly, the warmth of her mother jolted away. Surprised, Violetkit began to wail. Screeches cut through the air, frightening her, hurting her sensitive ears.

Her mother roughly picked her up by the scruff, and shoved her in the corner of the den, squashing Violetkit.

Her mother attempted to quiet her, all in vain. "Mama!"

Suddenly, Violetkit heard a few whumps and a struggle. And the den erupted in noise. Violetkit was roughly picked up by the scruff, and carried away from the mother that she had never even once seen.

When they get what they want

They never want it again

When she was dropped onto the ground with such force that the ground rattled, she was finally forced to open her eyes. What she saw was too terrible to see for a young kit such as herself.

The clearing was smeared with blood. Bodies lay everywhere, including the one of her denmate, Rowankit. Apparently she hadn't survived. Violetkit gulped and tried to ignore the sadness and the terror. The tom that had been carrying her picked her up again, after a brief conversation.

Violetkit felt the voice inside of her.

"Help!" she called as she was dragged through the forest.

"Shut up," growled the tom.

"Be gentle," said the other tom, "I am your father, Violetkit. My name is Flamestar, the ShadeClan leader."

Violetkit ignored them and kept on calling for help. But only more of her so-called father's reinforcements came.

The bushes rustled yet again. Violetkit cringed, expecting another ShadeClan cat to come and jeer at 'what a little scrap she was' and swat her aside. But it wasn't that at all. It was Splashpaw. She remembered his voice, as he took in bedding for her mother and made sure it was perfect. He always gave feathers to Violetkit. She also remembered how he had told her funny stories of his apprenticeship, in attempt to make her open her eyes. And, in seeing for the first time, Violetkit finally knew how handsome he was.

Her heart swelled with hope, hope that she would be rescued from these evil cats.

But Splashpaw just stared into her eyes, and looked at all the burly warriors surrounding her. She whimpered. Splashpaw just looked away.

At that time, Violetkit didn't feel any anger, just sadness, and deep, dark disappointment at his betrayal. But she felt a tug towards him that was too powerful to ignore, even as she tried to, walking through the unfamiliar woods.

Go on, take everything, take everything

Take everything

I want you to

These cats had taken everything from her. Her mother, Splashpaw, all of the Clanmates that she could've come to know and love.

Flamestar spoiled her rotten, but it was transparent as the breeze. And while he wasn't looking, she was treated like a servant.

But it didn't even matter. How could she know that they would all be loyal to her? Splashpaw had betrayed her. Her mother could, eventually. She had failed to keep her safe, didn't she?

It wasn't worth it. Cats weren't worth it. Trust wasn't worth it.

So maybe it was better that way in her new Clan, with no risk of letting her guard down.

Go on, take everything

Take Everything

I want you to

And the sky was all violet

I wanna give the violet more violence

Hey, I'm the one with no soul

One above and one below

Go on, take everything

Take everything

I want you to

Go on, take everything

Take everything

I dare you to

I told you from the start

Just how this would end

When I get what I want

And I never want it again

Go on, take everything

Take everything

I want you to

Go on take everything

Take everything

I want you to

Go on take everything, take everything,

take everything, take everything, take everything

Take everything
