*This is part of a 3 part book series, please read The Name No One Knows first. Thank you*
Chapter 1-
"Wake up you fleabrain. Are you going to sleep in that box forever?" Cali's voice rang in my ears. Sharp-tongued that one.
"Can't you let an old tom have some peace? Why don't you bother Tooth or Tommy instead? I'm sure they're near the ally today." I muttered. I felt her soft gold paw hit my face.
"I said get up. Rats won't hunt themselves." Annoyance filled her voice. Always so harsh and rarely ever fun.
"Has Brightspirit, I mean Lily, talked about me lately?" I ignored her, asking my own question.
"You know that answer so why do you always ask it? It's always no White. She has her own life now so get up and get your own." She turned away, tail high and nose up. "Or I might leave you too."
"Alright, alright. I'm coming." I sighed and followed her out of my den and onto the twoleg streets. "I wonder how Dawnspeck is doing." I said out loud.
"You still think about her?" Cali asked. "It's been moons since you've seen her."
"I know. But you don't usually forget the great Lionstar's kin. After all, his blood has been in many many leaders before him. And Cinderheart was always kind to me so of course I became pals with their daughter. Besides, last time I saw her she had just had her kit." I thought about the little bundle of black and gold fur snuggled up next to Dawnspeck's grey and gold pelt. "I wonder if my boy and her's get along."
"Pfft. I don't think that's likely." Cali mewed. "After that scene you made I think Dawnspeck would want her kits away from yours."
"That was uncalled for Cali. I can't help what I hear!" My pelt stook up but I laid it back down. She was right. It was my paws that Fallenkit's blood was on. I shivered at the thought of it.
"Whatever." Cali flicked her gold tail. For a ex kittypet, she sure had some sass. "You act like you miss the clans White. Why don't you go back? You certainly don't seem to want my company. All you talk about is 'Brightspirt' this and 'Dawnspeck' that. Dawnspeck wasn't even your mate White. How about you focus on the thunderpath ahead and stop thinking about the past?"
"You know I'd never go back to the clans Cali." I said softly.
"Sometimes, I don't White. Sometimes I don't." She looked away and walked just a bit faster until we saw Tooth. Maybe she was right about me. I spend too much time in the past.

Chapter 2-
"Howdy White. How ya doin'?" Tooth asked, the same smug look on his face as always. "Heard you and Cali got In'a fight today. Don't ya know how ta get along wit she-cats?" He bumped into me as a small, friendly tease.
I snorted. "You know I only ever got lucky to have Brightspirit because I listened to Flashflame"
"Mousedung. You got her 'cause you're sly my friend. Not 'cause you hear weird voices in yer head." The ginger tom placed a large paw on my head to make his statement. "Besides, isn't it normal ta hear voices for ya guys? With that Starclan o yers?"
"That's different Tooth. Those are dead cats. Mine is just cats that don't exist." I tried to explain but he wasn't having any of it.
"Whatever. Ya'll both sound crazy ta me. Clan cats or schizophrenic, same thing ta me." I rolled my eyes at his statement. He was always a rouge so he just couldn't understand. That's why I have Cali.
"Hey hey! Tommy's here! What's going on my friends?" The big pile of gray tabby fur waddled over.
"Hey Tommy." I greeted him. "Nothing's really going on. We just got here."
"Alright alright!" He turned towards Cali. "Hey hey Cali! Sure you're still trying for old White over here? Cause if not, I'm available."
Cali snorted and patted a paw at his face playfully. "In your dreams you big tub." She purred and jumped onto him, play fighting like kits. The two were always like that. Joking around. Cali knew he didn't see her that way so she found it funny when he'd make jokes about being her mate. Her humor was truly strange.
"Weren't we going to hunt rats?" I asked Cali. "Not play fight like kits?" I purred. She looked over and rolled her eyes. So cold that one.
"Yeah yeah. Alright." She muttered and got of Tommy. "And for the record, I won." She mewed to the tom.
"Like always." He purred. "So who's hunting with who?" He asked me. Guess I was the 'leader' in this group. Maybe I should change my name to Whitestar.
"I was thinking Cali and Tooth and me and you." I told them all.
"Sounds alright wit me" Tooth mewed. Cali shrugged and headed out with Tooth right away. I looked over at Tommy. He shrugged.
"I'm sure she'll chill out eventually. Just give her time." He told me and stared to waddle down the ally, me following right behind him.
