Introduction
"Hey," said a brown tabby tom, his amber eyes flashing brilliantly in the morning light. "I'm Bramblestar, the leader of- Arrg! It's got me!" You look down to see a white tom clinging to Bramblestar's leg, absolute madness in his gaze. The leader looked around wildly, trying to shake the cat.
"Dovewing! Squirrelflight! Bumblestripe! Someone! Help me!" He glanced at you in terror. "Help me!" he cried. But you stood, helpless, as the white tom sunk his teeth into Bramblestar's leg. Satisfied, he let go and moved away. The brown tabby fell to the ground, shivering violently.
"Come here," he murmured.
"Can I- can I help you?" you said shakily- you suddenly realised how terrified you were. You flicked your tail nervously.
"It's too late," he replied, his tone light. "It- Cloudtail, bit me. Just remember- Keep fit. Attack again if you aren't sure it's dead. Sharpen your claws. No attachments. Don't sleep in the open or on the ground. Be vigilant."
"What?" you ask.
"Zombies!" he gasps, seeming to lose consciousness. "They're all zombies! Stay safe. Look for others who aren't zombies and work together. I was hoping-" His body grew slack as the fight left him. Suddenly, a maddening look filled his eyes. The same look that was in Cloudtail's gaze. and it was turned on you.
If you choose to RUN, go to 1. If you choose to FIGHT, go to 2.
"Hey," says a voice. You jump a spot a she-cat. "I'm Ivypool," she meows.
"Oh," you reply. "You startled me."
"So," she says, "Where do you plan on sleeping?"
If you FOLLOW Bramblestar's advice and SLEEP IN THE TREE, go to 3. If you IGNORE his advice and SLEEP ON THE GROUND, go to 4.

1.
Your eyes flash with terror before you turn to flee. Your paws churn the earth as you run. You glance back. Big mistake. Bramblestar is on your heels. You let out a yowl of terror and run faster. You race past the trees and you feel as though your heart is about to burst out of your chest. Your trip over a root and scramble desperately to your paws. A oak looms in front of you. You feel Bramblestar's breath on your paws. You leap for the first branch and scramble upwards. Your climb into the thin branches, then become aware there is no cat behind you. You slow down and glance at the ground. It's a long way down. You can't see Bramblestar. Your eyes begin to droop. It's getting dark. "Hey," says a voice. You jump a spot a she-cat. "I'm Ivypool," she meows.
"Oh," you reply. "You startled me."
"So," she says, "Where do you plan on sleeping?"
If you FOLLOW Bramblestar's advice and SLEEP IN THE TREE, go to 3. If you IGNORE his advice and SLEEP ON THE GROUND, go to 4.
2.
Your eyes flash with terror before your claws slide out. You snarl and slash Bramblestar across the face. He reels back and you gain the upper hand, slashing at his neck. He collapses and you smirk, but attack him again to make sure he is dead. A yowl sounds; an unearthly, zombie-like yowl. Cloudtail pads out of the old warriors den, followed by a gray-and-white she-cat whom you recognise to be Ivypool. Grinning to show horrifyingly blood-stained teeth, Cloudtail leaps at you. You attack him, slashing at his eyes. Ivypool latches onto your leg, preparing to bite down. Shrieking, you shake yourself free and slash the white tom's neck. He bleeds out onto the ground and Ivypool advances on you.
"No, don't," you whimper. She could be capable of anything; she's knows so many moves from the Dark Forest that you could be dead in heartbeat. Suddenly she whirls around and slashes Cloudtail's stomach open.
"Relax," she meows. "I just needed to make sure he was dead."
"You're... Not a zombie?" you ask, dumbfounded.
"No!" Ivypool looked horrified. "I only pretended to be. You know, fit in. I even bit myself. Still got the scar." She showed you her right front leg, pushing back the fur. A horrid, ugly scar lay there, marking the flesh. You glance at the sky, noticing how dark it has got.
"We should find a good tree," you murmur.
"But... You could get trapped up there by a zombie," said Ivypool. "I say ground."
If you IGNORE Ivypool and SLEEP IN A TREE, go to 3. If you SIDE with Ivypool and SLEEP ON THE GROUND, go to 4.
"No, don't," you whimper. She could be capable of anything; she's knows so many moves from the Dark Forest that you could be dead in heartbeat. Suddenly she whirls around and slashes Cloudtail's stomach open.

"You're... Not a zombie?" you ask, dumbfounded.
"No!" Ivypool looked horrified. "I only pretended to be. You know, fit in. I even bit myself. Still got the scar." She showed you her right front leg, pushing back the fur. A horrid, ugly scar lay there, marking the flesh. You glance at the sky, noticing how dark it has got.

"But... You could get trapped up there by a zombie," said Ivypool. "I say ground."
If you IGNORE Ivypool and SLEEP IN A TREE, go to 3. If you SIDE with Ivypool and SLEEP ON THE GROUND, go to 4.
