Prologue
Around a small pond three cats sat gathered together. "What shall we do then?" asked a tall black she-cat. "If he ever finds out, who knows what would happen!" "Calm yourself, Shadefoot. He will have to learn eventually. If you do not tell him, he will be even more upset." whispered a wise orange tabby tom. "Fallingflame, you speak the truth; but how can we even decide he should stay? He would be a threat and a nuisance to keep in the camp." yowled a young brown tom. "Quiet, Mudflight! Do you want to wake the entire forest?!" "Calm down, both of you. There is no need to worry. The Tribe of Moonlight has showed me this is right. We need to heed their instructions." Rasped Fallingflame. "Thank you. Fallingflame." Meowed Shadefoot worriedly. "But are you absolutely positive this is what the Tribe of Moonlight wants?" "Yes. They have spoken to me more than once on this situation. This is definetly the right thing to do." And with that he turned and dashed down the hill. "No! don't leave yet! Please stay!" yowled Mudflight. "Remember what I have told you and have patience." He calmly meowed back and continued to sprint away.
Chapter one
Pinepaw awoke suddenly in his nest. He stretched and looked around. The den was empty. "Weird. I guess I slept in." he yawned. As he poked his head outside the den he was overwhelmed by the stench of blood. Terrified, he darted outside, squinting in the sunlight. He looked around and spotted a group of cats clustered in the center of the camp. "What's going on?" he mewed, frightened. Cloverleaf turned around, eyes clouded. "Stonepaw and Shadefoot got attacked by a fox while they were on patrol. They ran into a HollowClan patrol and managed to chase them off, but Stonepaw has a broken paw and some pretty deep cuts." He explained. "Were any of the others hurt?" "Yes, but Stonepaw thought he could on one of the foxes on his own." He shook his head. "Wait, so there was more than one fox?" He exclaimed. Cloverleaf sighed. "Yes, unfortunately. There was a mother, three cubs and another fox that joined the fight later on." "Will he be okay?!" Pinepaw yowled worriedly. "I'm not sure. You would have to talk to either Moonwind or Mintpool, but they're both already extremely busy, so I advise being patient and waiting for them to tell us when they're ready." Pinepaw flicked his tail and trotted over to the fresh kill pile. He chose a mouse and carried it over to Mothstreak. He placed it at her feet and nudged it towards her. "Thank you." She mewed quietly. "You should bring something to Petalwhisper too. She must be worried sick." He pressed his nose to her cheek and walked back to the apprentice den. He poked his head in and looked around. He spotted Berrypaw and walked over to her. "When did you come in here? I've been wondering where you were." She looked up, her eyes glistening with sorrow. "I just managed to sneak in here. Everyone has been trying to talk to me and ask me how I'm doing." She sighed. "I don't want to talk about my feelings to every cat in the clan. Do you understand what I'm saying?" "Yeah. I get it. If you want to be alone I can leave. But I just wanted to come cheer you up." He dropped a seagull at her feet. She looked up at him and pressed her nose to his. "Thanks. You know these are my favorite." She finished it in a few gulps and lay back down. "You are a really great friend, Pinepaw. Thank you." She stood up. "I have to go hunting with Crabtail and Blueflame. Want to come? We can talk some more later." "Yeah, okay. Only as long as it's okay with them." He got up and touched his tail-tip to her shoulder. "I'll go and ask them. I'll be back in a second." He nodded. "Alright. Be quick about it though." She flicked her tail and darted out of the den. He shook his fur and stretched. Bored, he strolled around the den looking at the nests on the ground. Berrypaw trotted back into the den, tail dragging. "They said no. It's more of a practice test." "Oh, okay." he mewed, disappointed. "I'll come back to hang out with you afterwards though. I promise." She stood there for a moment then licked his cheek and sprinted away. He stood there dazed for a moment then smiled to himself. "Clever girl." He muttered and strode outside.
