xXx Dovewing's POV xXx

Dovewing sighed sadly as she walked into camp, two mice and a sparrow hanging from her jaw. The sun was just beginning to set, and the clan cats were sharing tongues and getting ready for sunset patrol. Just as she set the food on the fresh-kill pile, she turned and nearly ran into Leafpool, Squirrelflight, and Cinderheart who all said at nearly the exact same time, "Did you find them? Are they back?"

Dovewing shook her head sadly, and the three she-cats turned and headed back to their respective places, Cinderheart padding over to her littermates while Leafpool and Squirrelflight walked back to the fresh-kill they had been eating, a heavy aura around them.

The gray she-cat turned and walked back to the warriors den, her heart heavy with sadness. It had been just over half a moon since Jayfeather, Hollyleaf, and Lionblaze had been taken by twolegs, and yes she could still remember it like it only happened at sunrise

~~~FLASHBACK~~~

"Ok, everyone got it?" asked a familiar brown tabby as he gave orders to the patrol.

"Yep!" replied Lionblaze to the deputy.

"Yes," answered Hollyleaf, her excitement bubbling inside of her, though she remained calm on the outside. Similar responses could be heard by the other cats in the group, including Icecloud, Dovewing, Ivypool, and Foxleap.

Brambleclaw nodded, and turned his attention to the scene in front of him. There were three dogs, the three dogs that had been terrorizing all four of the clans, but mostly Thunderclan. About a quarter moon ago, at a Gathering, all four clans had agreed that the dogs were a nuisance, and had to be stopped. It was unknown whether there were twolegs with them, but one thing was for sure, the dogs were there to stay. All four clans had decided that Thunderclan, (after a snide remark from Blackstar and a defiant retort by Firestar and over half of Thunderclan), would handle this alone, and if they couldn't "handle" it, then the other clans would help. It was a difficult situation, but the only one they could do at the moment, for the Gathering had been about to end.

He three dogs were snoozing in a patch of sunlight, not even aware that there were ailments waiting for them just behind the bushes. Brambleclaw flicked his tail, and the cats burst out of the bushes, yowling and racing towards the dogs, which in turn jumped up and started barking, but strangely enough slowly running through the trees, as if they were leading on the cats. The patrol ignored this fact, continuing to chase them

After a minute or two of chasing the dogs, they came upon a strange contraption, which the dogs ran behind. The clan cats skidded to a halt, staring at the strange object which smelled suspiciously like twoleg, and other smells that made the cats want to hurl. Jayfeather, who had just been happening to collect herbs when he heard the cats attack the dogs, appeared over by a bush and called out, "What in the name of Starclan is THAT thing?"

"Jayfeather, what're YOU doing here?" yelled Brambleclaw, wondering why he would even be here.

"Collecting herbs!"

"Oh… well stay back, it's dangerous!" The cats turned away from their clanmate to inspect the strange thing in front of them, which looked like a monster, but smelled different than one, more like a warped version of crowfood and the metallic water that twolegs tended to drink.

Jayfeather sighed. "Yeah, yeah, I know, you just be car-

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!"

All of the patrol whipped around to be greeted by a horrid sight. A huge twoleg was standing a few tail lengths away, with a long white pelt, a strange see-through thing on its face, and Jayfeather clutched in its forepaws, which had a strange yellow fur on it.

"LET ME GO, LET ME GO YOU HORRIBLE CREATURE! LET GO OF ME YOU CRAZY TWOLEG! I SAID LET ME GO! YOU FOX DUNG LET ME GO!" yowled Jayfeather, anger and fear mixing in his voice as he struggled to get free of the grasp, scratching his claws against the strange thing on its face, but to no avail. It apparently was made to protect the twoleg from this sort of thing, for no matter how many times the tom cat scratched, it stayed intact. Staring in horror, the cats watched as their clanmate was injected with some strange device, and at once Jayfeather's blows softened, until he was drooping in the twoleg's arms.

All of the cats screeched in horror, while Lionblaze's and Hollyleaf's could be heard especially, and of them rushed forward, but before they could get a few tail lengths, two more screeches were heard, and what was left of the patrol turned to see Hollyleaf and Lionblaze in similar states, held in the paws of two more twolegs. The patrol backed into a group, hissing and snarling at them to give them their friends back, but of course the twolegs were too stupid to respond. Brambleclaw looked desperately at the sleeping cats, until he saw Jayfeather lift his head groggily and meow so quietly, only the clan cats hearing could pick it up. "Go… run, now… we'll… be fine… GO…" he forced out the last word with as much strength that he could muster before he fell asleep. The cats were just about to fight their way out when a yowl was heard from a twoleg nearby, and the other twolegs surrounding them fell back and headed towards the yowl, cats in tow. Icecloud, Dovewing, Ivypool, and Foxleap were about to run after them when Brambleclaw yelled an order to them, an order none of the cats there wanted to do. "Thunderclan, RETREAT!" The four younger cats all whipped around in shock, but Brambleclaw was already heading back to camp, so the other cats were forced to follow. Taking one last glance at the rustling undergrowth, Dovewing followed her clanmates back to camp to share the awful news: Jayfeather, Lionblaze, and Hollyleaf were captured by twolegs.

~~~END FLASHBACK~~~

Dovewing shook her head sadly as she lay down in her nest, remembering the chaos that had ensued, which included much horrified yowling (a lot of it being from Squirrelflight and Leafpool), and an order for all patrols to stay away from that area and to keep watch for the cats. As Dovewing closed her eyes to go to sleep, she remembered thinking about how they were going to explain this to the cats at the gathering in a few days and where the three could possibly be when she heard a joyful yowl sound around the camp.

"THEY'RE BACK! LIONBLAZE, HOLLYLEAF, AND JAYFEATHER ARE BACK!"
