One night, not many moons ago…
Firestar, an orange tom who was leader of ThunderClan, was outside of his den, happily crunching on a mouse. This greenleaf was plentiful this year. Prey was just begging to be eaten. Firestar looked up at the wide expanse of Silverpelt and breathed in the cool air.
Ahhh, what a beautiful night, thought Firestar as he took another bite of mouse. Just then, Sandstorm, a pale ginger she-cat, walked over with a fat pigeon in her mouth. She plopped down next to Firestar and began devouring her dinner.
"The stars sure are bright tonight. StarClan defiantly blessed us this season, look at all the prey we caught." said Sandstorm cheerfully and flicked her tail at the prey pile, which looked like a small mountain.
"Yup, sure is." said Firestar. The two cats looked up at Silverpelt. Then, something caught Sandstorm's eye.
"Wow look at that blue star up there! It's so pretty." said Sandstorm in wonder.
"Huh? What was that?" said Firestar distractedly. Sandstorm was about to repeat what she just said but then she had an idea for a prank.
"Oh my!" said Sandstorm dramatically. "I think I see Bluestar at the camp entrance." Firestar jumped up at the sound of Bluestar's name.
"Bluestar?" said Firestar excitedly. "Where, where?" Bluestar was the original leader of ThunderClan before Firestar and his mentor.
Longtail, who was nearby eating a thrush, snickered. Longtail was a pale tabby warrior tom with black stripes and was originally Firestar's enemy. Sometimes Firestar wasn't exactly the sharpest pair of claws in the Clan.
"Firestar, you better hurry! I think Bluestar's leaving." said Sandstorm with mock fear in her voice.
"Bluestar! Bluestar, wait up!" Firestar yelped as he dashed towards the gorse tunnel marking the entrance.
Sandstorm and Longtail watched with amusement as the former ThunderClan leader ran, yowling Bluestar's name. After a few minutes, he came back panting.
"I guess I missed her…" said Firestar flatly. Sandstorm shook her ginger head in mock disapproval.
"It's because you went the wrong way mouse brain. If you hurry, you might reach her." said Sandstorm quietly.
Once again, Firestar darted off for the gorse tunnel yowling. The queens in the nursery poked their heads out to see what the entire ruckus was about. Some were a bit annoyed of the yowling. While others simply settled down to dinner and the show. Sandstorm thought she was going to explode from laughter.
After another ten minutes went by before Firestar came back. He was panting even harder than before.
"I… I lost her… whew," Firestar panted. Then Sandstorm couldn't take it any more and bowled over with laughter.
"Mrow-mow-mow-mow!" Sandstorm laughed. Firestar looked confused.
"What, what's so funny?" he asked. It took a moment for Sandstorm to pull herself together.
"Oh Firestar," she began. "It was a joke. Bluestar was never here."
Silence.
"Okay, I admit, that was a little cruel. What I was trying to say to you earlier was 'look at that blue star'." Sandstorm confessed.
"Oh." said Firestar as he looked up to Silverpelt. "So Bluestar was here after all, huh."
"Yeah," Sandstorm replied. "And she could've been laughing her tail off after seeing what a mouse brain you've been."
Some more silence.
"So, no hard feelings?" asked Sandstorm quietly.
"No hard feelings." said Firestar.
And the two friends, full and happy, continued to stare up Silverpelt.
