HISTORY
epher's story began in the soror camp, under the wing of a beautiful pure black she-cat nursing epher and their siblings. at first, they didn't fit in with the others. not like they didn't mind it, of course- hands down the young brown kit would prefer watching as the older cats come back into the colony with heaps of prey and herbs rather than wrestling with their attention needing siblings.
without realizing so much time had passed, before they knew it epher had became a greenhorn- which meant they could no longer free-load in their mother's den and have to settle down in the greenhorn's den. training had gone rather well, they did their best to focus on what the old cats were attempting to teach them. not the greatest of experiences, having information being forced down your throat and being surrounded by other unfamiliar cats- however epher grew used to it.
one unsuspecting day, epher had found their soulmate. okay, maybe not their soulmate- but they were so deeply in love it's safe to assume that the two were soulmates. a handsome pure white tom with eyes the same shade of beautiful canopies that sheltered the nearby forests that went under the name of midian. the two had met while out hunting, and immediately afterwards they dedicated every day of their training to spending time with one another.
weeks turned into days, and eventually epher graduated from the greenhorns, earning themselves the title of scout. it didn't quite fit them well as they'd been secretly hoping for guard, however nonetheless it was something to be real proud of. midian, epher's soulmate and love interest had scored the guard ranking, and they were more than proud of him.
days passed rather quickly, and before they knew it midian had asked epher to be his mate. without the slightest bit of hesitation epher had accepted and the two became mates the same day. time begun to pass quickly, with the two love-birds striving to spend each and every day with one another.
it was a mistake. one night lead to another and before they knew it, epher would be expecting kittens. midian was ecstatic, however epher was in denial. they didn't want this, they were too young to have to deal with being a mother.
filled with rage, epher lashed out at midian. how could he have forced this life onto them? they didn't want this. it was his fault. one thing led to another, and before they knew it midian's body was on the ground, breathing halted and body torn to pieces.
epher was instantly in denial. no, he was still alive, right? they hadn't killed him.. right? time felt like it froze as they stood in front of the already decaying body. suddenly, after what felt like days of standing there a cat had walked up behind epher, seeing midian's body and his blood on their claws.
almost instantly epher and their unborn kits were kicked out of soror. it all was happening too quickly for epher to comprehend, what were they to do out in the wilderness on their own, let alone with kittens?
months passed as epher wandered the land, scavenging whatever food and resources they could find. it was going to be time soon, and they still hadn't found a suitable nest to give kits safely in. in a hurry, they made shelter underneath a large probably dead oak tree that was ridden with moss. there, almost instantly the kits came.
two male kits and one female kit with all being shorthaired. one of the males was a beautiful black with a silver undercoat, the other being pure white just like his father. the only she-cat was the runt, a small black classic tabby very similar to epher. they had been named azriel, zelig and esther.
epher spent as much time as they could away from the kittens, only being for them to feed them and make sure none had wandered off. their plan was simple, wait until they're older and drop them off at a colony somewhere that can take care of them. it would be many times better than having to deal with epher and their now cold, distant ways.OTHERadoption thread: nil
