The Cat's Meow!

Name ;; Lillystem.
Gender ;; She-Cat.
Age ;; 34 Moons.
Clan ;; Shadowclan.
Rank ;; Warrior.

Picture ;;


Appearance ;; Lillystem is small for a warrior and she has very skinny limbs and a very long and skinny tail. She is a tabby mix. Her back has gray, tan, and dark brown stripes. Her tail is also striped with those colors. Her chest and belly though are white, along wit her chin and muzzle. Also the bridge of her nose is white and forms a point. All four her paws are white, but her legs are very light in color and have very thick stripes on them. Her ears may seem a little bit too big for her body and head, but she doesn't mind. Her eyes may also seem large for her face, but the beautiful, rich green color portrays her true emotions to the fullest. Her little pink nose has a small dot of black fur just above it and her pads are also pink. She has long white whiskers. Her fur is short and is as soft as a kit’s.

Personality ;; At first glance she looks like happiest cat on Earth. She seems to always be joyous and perky. Always making others feel loved and wanted by how loving and caring she is. It seems she cares more about everyone else more than herself. But one, only one of these “facts” is true. Over the moons Lillystem has built layers upon layers of protection against the negativity. Or should I say walls? Because she not only wants to keep the negativity from everyone else out, she wants to keep her own negativity inside of her. She wants the pain and wounds to stay in her, never on someone else. She wishes that no one ever has to go through what she has been through. Lillystem is a damaged cat. Because of her past she has a broken heart and these horrible feelings that she believes she must live with for the rest of her life. Everyday this gorgeous she-cat puts on a smile no matter how she is truly feeling inside. Some would call it depression, if they could truly know how she felt. But she feels it is her burden. No one else’s, she would never want to take away another cat’s happiness, because she knows how it feels to not be happy. Never would she deprave someone of a feeling so special, that others take for granted not even realizing it. So yes, Lillystem may seem like the happiest cat, but in truth she is somewhat dying inside because of the major amounts of pain. But she sure as hell hides it well doesn’t she? Because no other cat could ever tell what is going on her mind…unless possibly they understand what she is going through and they try to get her to open up, which may be hard.

History ;; Not many cats know the true history of Lillystem. Even she barely does. Everyone knows that she was born to Dawnstripe, a loyal Shadowclan warrior and Raja, a violent rogue. That was the gossip among the clans for moons. Now some argue whether Dawnstripe planned to have Raja’s kits or if Raja just got his way with her. Whatever happened though, the clan was not happy with Dawnstripe at all. They blamed her, even if there was a possibility it wasn’t her fault. How could she disgrace Shadowclan like that? They all wanted her banished, but thankfully the leader was more understanding and allowed her to stay. The warriors who were against her staying vowed to not partake in any part of the forbidden kits’ lives.

Coming closer to her due date, Dawnstripe became more and more fearful for her unborn kits’ lives. So much in fact that she went into labor early. It was the hardest night, morning, and day of Dawnstripe’s life, because that was how long it took to give birth to her four kits. Three girls. One boy. There were two other queens in the nursery with Dawnstripe. One of them completely ignored and shunned Dawnstripe, but the other, Spottedface, helped her care for the kits. Since Spottedface only had one kit, it was easy for her to share her milk with Dawnstripe’s children.

As Dawnstripe’s kits began to grow older, they began to sense the clan had a disliking towards them. Confused and hurt by the death glares and harsh words they asked their mother one day while training. Dawnstripe had to train all four of them, because the clan refused to. Granted they all had mentors, but they never worked with them. On that day Dawnstripe explained to her children that the clan didn’t approve of the choices she made, so they were all being punished because of her. She apologized a thousand times for having them treated this way. But she knew if were able to take it back and did, she wouldn’t have her four beautiful and healthy kits. She couldn’t say she regretted having them, because she didn’t. It was just the choice of father she didn’t like.

On that very same day, after that exact conversation a large, skinny, muscular, black cat showed up in the clearing. He had an unknown scent to the apprentices, but to Dawnstripe his figure and scent were both all too familiar. Dawnstripe let out a hiss and nearly tore his face off before he could explain himself. She blamed him for the mistreatment of not only her, but their kits. Raja apologized to Dawnstripe and offered a home to both her and the kits. He offered to help train them to become the best they could be. She declined, saying that she was loyal to Shadowclan and nothing or no one else. And with that she took the kits back to camp. Lillypaw and her siblings didn’t really understand the confrontation that had taken place, but didn’t think much of it. They went back to the normal way of life…for them at least. Little did the tight bond family know that Raja had sworn to come back for all of them.

One day, long after Raja’s visit, Lillypaw went out with her sister, Violetpaw they were hunting near the Thunderpath. Raja once again appeared by himself and presented himself to his daughters. Violetpaw had always talked to Lillypaw about being excited to have finally met their father. And to be honest, Lillypaw was too. Unfortunately, Raja started to scare the girls and ended up threatening them. Knowing they would never be able to win in a fight against him, the took the “flight” and ran away from him, but he was much larger and had longer legs, he easily caught up to them. Violetpaw made the mistake of trying to change her direction and ran directly onto the Thunderpath, just as a monster roared by. Raja stopped in horror as he watched his daughter get hit by the monster. Thankfully Lillypaw was able to make it back to camp safely. She explained the story to her mother and siblings.

Asking the leader for help and support, a patrol followed Lillypaw to where Violetpaw had been killed. When they arrived, Raja was no where to be found, but Violetpaw’s mangled and lifeless body lay a few fox lengths from the Thunderpath. Raja’s scent surrounded her body. At least he had enough decency to pull her off the road. Dawnstripe broke down over the loss of her daughter. Some of the clan had warmed up to Dawnstripe and the kits, so they tried to comfort her, but to no avail. She swore to kill Raja the next time she saw him, which hopefully for him would be never. Lillypaw was deeply upset by the loss of her sister, especially because she had watched it happen and she knew that Violetpaw actually wanted to get to know Raja. Lillypaw now understood her mother’s hatred for the Rouge for she was starting to feel it too.

A few moons later Lillypaw went out with her other sister, Tulippaw, who had the honor of becoming the Medicine Cat apprentice. Lillypaw was helping Tulippaw gather herbs that were running low on the stock back at camp. And what do you know, once again Raja shows up. Surprise. Now, let it be known that Tulippaw was blind in one in and had to walk with a slight limp because of a fox attack. Lillypaw knew that she had to get her sister back to camp and away from this monster. But this time, it wasn’t just Raja. He had brought two “friends” with him. All they wanted to do was talk. Lillypaw started to back away from the three toms, as Raja explained that he only wanted his children to come live with him.

Lillypaw kindly declined and continued to back away with her sister. Tulippaw stepped on a twig which snapped, causing a bird to fly out of the nearby bushes. At that point both young, she- cats ran for their lives back towards camp. Before Raja could utter a command his two friends took off after them. The larger of the two quickly caught up to Tulippaw, who was running a little slower. He extended his paw and tried to grab her back leg, making her stumble more. Lillypaw had stopped running and was watching her sister, hoping Starclan would help her run faster. Before Lillypaw knew what was happening, the strong tom pounced on Tulippaw, and gave her a fatal blow to the head like she was a piece of prey. Lillypaw wasn’t far from the camp now and Raja had already called off the “hunt” long before Tulippaw died. Lillypaw wondered how he would react, but didn’t care to stick around. Running back to camp she found her mother and explained her story once more.

Another, larger patrol went out and found Tulippaw’s body, along with Raja’s “friend’s” lifeless body. Apparently Raja wasn’t too happy with him for killing his second daughter. This time was more emotional for Lillypaw and she could barely stand on her own feet. She couldn’t be near her sister’s body in the forest, but would not leave it when they had the vigil. Lillypaw began having nightmares and would run off to cry by herself and just have some time alone, to herself. She knew it was dangerous because Raja was still out there, but she didn’t care. Two parts of her were already dead, why not just let him take her out of her misery.

One morning coming back from patrol she heard whispers and gossip going around camp. Eventually she found out what the rumors were. The deputy had seen Dawnstripe and Lillypaw’s only surviving sibling, a brother, Falconpaw, leaving Shadowclan’s territory with Raja. With this news Lillypaw hit her all time low, she wouldn’t talk to anyone, unless spoken to first, she would only answer simple questions, she refused to talk to anyone about her family situation, she stayed clear of the nursery, kits, and younger cats, she was barely eating, and was in a major depression for about two weeks. The leader decided that some good news was in order for this young cat, who had experience horrible tragedy after tragedy. The leader gave her the warrior name of Lillystem. After about a week or two of having her warrior name she began to cheer up a little bit on the outside and eventually turned into the cat everyone thinks is the happiest…
