Disclaimer, which I have forgotten everywhere else, I don't own Warriors, or Gallagher Girls, which I have written my previous stories about… Yeah…

I needed a break. Badly. I trotted out of the medicine den, muttering a greeting to the cats I passed. I headed through the forest, taking the path to the Moonpool. I began to hear feeble and hesitant trotting behind me, so I stopped.

"Leafpool?" I called.

"Jayfeather, it's me. I was wondering if… you would… forgive me and let me walk with you." I contemplated it, coming to the conclusion that she was one of the only people I had left, and she should be trusted.

"Yes," I turned, motioning with my tail that she should follow me once more.

Snap!

"Fox Dung, a twig!" Leafpool and I turned swiftly, and I sniffed the air.

"Crowfeather?" He winced slightly, sighing and walking towards us.

"Do you finally believe that I am your son?" His ears flattened.

"Let's pretend that never happened." He pushed ahead of us, not taking no for an answer. I shook my head, wondering how big this posse was going to get. I was soon going to find out.

"Oh, hey, Jayfeather; Cinderheart, Dovepaw, and I were just hunting. Crowfeather, and Leafpool? Are you having a bonding session?" Lionblaze, Dovepaw and Cinderheart entered my range of smell (AN: idk how to explain that…) and bounded over to the path. Lionblaze stared at Cinderheart, and Dovepaw's giggle alerted her, so she blushed. Geez!

"Hi, Jayfeather! And family… Where are you going? Can I tag along?" My pelt burned. Willowshine!

"I was just going to the Moonpool. You can come," I managed to stutter before Leafpool shook her head at me, grinning. I cuffed her ear playfully. I bounded up to Willowshine, and she smiled as our pelts brushed. Soon, Fireheart had been dutifully added to the group, not even questioning Willowshine and Crowfeather as we were going to the Moonpool. This was going to be a long day.

Once we reached the Moonpool, everyone but Willowshine backed up respectfully; they weren't medicine cats. (AN: Leafpool=not anymore) I padded over to the water, but before I could beckon Willowshine, an angry yowl pierced the air.

"Jayfeather, watch out!" Willowshine couldn't warn me fast enough, because Breezepelt came bounding out of the woods behind me. He ripped at my flesh, and I turned to see my friends and family blocked by vengeful Dark Forest warriors.

"Stop!"
