~You wake up in a place in the middle of nowhere.~
You: W-where am I? //You turn and begin to search the coast where you had been stranded. You notice a thick forest behind you. A bush rustles. Suddenly, an orange tom appears.//
The tom: I'm Emberpelt of ShadowClan. Who are you?
You: I'm Goldenfern. Of RiverClan. What happened here? Where are the Clans?
Emberpelt: I don't know. We've all been separated. Some died... //Emberpelt flicks his tail towards a corpse farther down the shore.
You: Who was that? //You gasp.// Emberpelt: Come and see.
You: //You follow Emberpelt and see that the corpse is Preyheart, deputy of ThunderClan.// That's awful! Emberpelt: I know.
You: What now?
Emberpelt: We should go look for survivors.
You: But where should we start searching?
A. The coast B. The forest behind you
((Updates will be longer as we get along the storyline))

A.
The forest could be filled with a lot of creepy stuff, and also predators, hostile cats, etc.
Maybe flesh-eaters--

A wins! Time for the next update!
You: Perhaps we should search the coast.
Emberpelt: Good idea. //He trots away from Preyheart's body. After a while of walking, you come to a mysterious trail.//
You: What is this? //You sniff at the trail.// It smells like cats! Let's follow it!
Emberpelt: Sure. //He agrees and you follow the trail, noses close to the ground.//
You finally come to a rock. It smells strongly of cats. You continue to find a gorse bush with strands and tufts of fur hanging off of it. You walk through, flinching at the thorns scraping your skin. You see two new cats-- a rogue, and a WindClan cat.
WindClan cat: Emberpelt? Goldenfern? Is that you?
Rogue: And who might these be, with names like yours, Foxclaw?
Foxclaw: Shut it, Raven.
Raven: Who are you telling to shut up?
You: Guys! It is us! //You dip your head to Foxclaw.// Do you know where the rest of the Clans have gone after the flood? We were searching for survivors and found you.
Raven: Yeah, yeah. But I'm glad you didn't head into the forest. We just came out of it. It's dangerous in there. Many hostile rogues battling for prey.
Emberpelt: But we need to go in now.
Raven: No way am I going there again!
You: //You snort and begin trotting into the woods. Almost at once you are greeted by the scent of blood-- and rogues.//
Foxclaw: See? Look-- two rogues over there!
You see two scrawny rogues tugging on opposite ends of a thin, bony mouse. One rogue is chestnut colored and the other jet black. Both smelled of blood, hunger and fear.
You: Should we break up the fight? Maybe then we can split the prey fairly and catch some more.
Raven: No way. Let them fight it out themselves. It'll be easier for everyone. Besides, the flood wiped out most of the prey. We need to catch our own. We can't waste time separating a fight between those two over a scrawny mouse like that thing. We need to move and find your so-called 'Clans'.
Emberpelt: I agree. We can't go messing with other's business.
You: But they could hurt each other! We could prevent deaths by helping them!
Raven: Or we could hunt for ourselves and prevent our deaths from happening!
Emberpelt: Since when did you care about rogues, Goldenfern?
You: Shouldn't we care about all cats now? We need more allies than foes!
Foxclaw: I can run fast and help break up the fight!
You: Good idea!
Raven: We are not doing this! We need more time to move away from the flooded area and we need more time to hunt for ourselves!
Foxclaw: But the rogues could hurt themselves!
Raven: Who cares?
Foxclaw: //Foxclaw growls but silences.// I still think we should do it. It won't waste that much time! We can hunt after!
You: Yeah!
Emberpelt: Why hunt later when we can move and hunt now?
Raven: At least someone around here has some common sense. You: We should break up the fight!
A. Break up the fight and prevent the rogues from killing each other. B. Move on, away from the rogues, and hunt for yourselves.

It's now or never. If we at least try, we have an opportunity at gaining some friends and possible allies.

Oki, I'll just make the next update, lol.
You: Fine, then! Foxclaw, come with me! Take the chestnut-colored one! I'll get the black one!
You begin to dart towards the jet black rogue. You barrel into her, knocking her away from the other rogue. The rogue growls at you slightly.
Black rogue: Why did you do that? You: To stop you guys from fighting! Split the prey fairly. Black rogue: Splitting prey 'fairly' wont fill our hungry bellies. Move along! Foxclaw: But wouldn't it be better than dying for one scrawny mouse? Chestnut rogue: True. How bout' I get half and you get half, Midnight? Midnight: Sounds good, Hound.
You quickly tear the mouse in half and don't take any, despite your starving condition.
You: I'm Goldenfern, this is Raven, Emberpelt, and here's Foxclaw. Raven: I'm not waiting any longer! I'm going hunting! Emberpelt: I'm coming with you! Foxclaw: We can't be separated! Guys! You: Let's at least stay to ask the rogues if they'd like to join us. Hound: I don't have any interest in joining your 'Clans'. I lost my family to the flood. Midnight: But we could be safe! Maybe we can find your family along the way. Hound: Fine. You: Thank you! Let's catch up to Raven and Emberpelt.
You trot deeper into the forest, mud sucking at your paws.
Foxclaw: Ick. You: I know. But they definitely came this way--
You are cut off by three snarling rogues. Their eyes flicker with fire and hate. You take a step back.
Hound: Uh-oh. Midnight: At least we outnumbered them! Rogue one: Kill them all!
The first rogue leapt at Hound and Midnight, the second at Foxclaw, and the third at you. You push him off with a heave of your hind legs and stand quickly. He strikes a blow at your chest and you fall but manage to drag him down with you. Snarling, he leaps away from you and into the thick of the small battle. You follow and see Hound. He sat, severely injured, behind Midnight.
You: Hound! Hound: Go! Go save yourselves! You: We'll come back for you! I promise!
You dart away from the battle. Midnight stays with Hound while Foxclaw follows you, limping, one of his russet-colored paws coated with sticky, red blood.
Foxclaw: We need to get back to Hound and Midnight! You: I know! Stay here. I'll go back.
You sprint as fast as you can to where the rogues had been battling you, but they were gone. All that was left was a weeping Midnight and a dead Hound.
You: No! Midnight: This is all your fault! How could you leave him-- leave us? You: We needed to regroup! I thought you were coming! Midnight: If you--if we... You: I'm so sorry. I'll help bury Hound. Midnight: No. Go find your stupid friends, Raven and Emberpelt, apparently. I don't want your help! You: But-but..
A. Reason with Midnight and help bury Hound B. Find Foxclaw and treat his wounds C. Find Emberpelt and Raven

B. forget that ungrateful little baka, you can find Emberpelt and Raven afterwards, you need strong allies, not mean ones! Besides, you need to help Foxclaw now before his wounds get any worse

A. We still need allies, despite their attitude. Midnight could save our lives in the future if we save his sometime!

Midnight is a she. Okay, A wins!
You: Midnight, I'm sorry that I left Hound. Please forgive me. I didn't mean for it to turn out this way... Midnight: You don't deserve to help bury Hound! You got him killed in the first place! You: Weren't you arguing with Hound over that mouse? Midnight: Well, yes, but we got over it! We're friends! You: Hound is somewhere better now. He isn't starving or wounded. Now let me help bury him. Midnight: Never! You: Please, Midnight. Give me a chance to make it up to Hound. Midnight: You can never make it up to him! I'll bury him alone! Go!
You stomp out of the clearing, upset. Why can't Midnight understand that you only want to help? You find Foxclaw laying on the ground, licking his paw wound but grimacing in pain.
You: Midnight won't let me bury Hound with her. //You look down at Foxclaw's wound.// That might get infected. Let me go find some goldenrod.
You trot into the woods, pelt prickling with unease. You find a patch of marigold, not goldenrod, but take it and hurry back to Foxclaw.
You: I found this. Foxclaw: //He grunts with pain.// Good.
You apply the marigold to Foxclaw's wound. You stand back and tilt your head, assessing your work.
You: Can you stand? Foxclaw: I don't know. Let me try. //He stands, struggling and unbalanced but up.// You: Okay. Let's find Emberpelt and Raven now.
You both trot through the woods, ignoring the wafting scent of mouse blood. You reach a cliff smelling of the two cat's scents and you climb up it, seeing Emberpelt and Raven.
Emberpelt: Goldenfern? Foxclaw? You: Yep. Why did you leave us? We lost Hound to some nasty rogues and Midnight wouldn't come with us. Raven: Simple. No reason to stay. We need prey to fill our bellies. //He prods a mouse he had caught.// You: Can we share that? Raven: It's scrawny! I'm only sharing with Emberpelt! He helped catch it. //Raven settles down beside Emberpelt and they both alternate when taking bites. Soon the mouse is gone.// You: But we'll starve! Raven: You should have gone hunting yourself. Foxclaw: We should rest for the night. It's getting dark. Plus, my leg hurts and we are hungry. Raven: You got yourself into that fight. We shouldn't wait for you. Emberpelt: I agree. We need to keep moving and find the Clans.
A. You go out hunting before moving on. B. You go out hunting before staying here for the night. C. You keep moving. D. You stay for the night.
