Bugeater paced in front of the four cats standing in front of him, feeling very confused.
He only wanted to bring one of them back, not four! He didn't know how it was possible, especially since two of those cats were in the Dark Forest, and two were in StarClan.
"What happened? Where is the fog? How did we get here? Is this a dream?" a giant dark tabby demanded.
"I don't know Tigerstar, but it doesn't seem right, hold me!" a dark grey cat with darker stripes wailed.
"Pull yourself together Darkstripe! Can't you see that this is a blessing? We are back, I can finally be the leader of all!" Tigerstar threw his head back, and started laughing manically.
Mudclaw, the cat whom Bugeater had meant to bring back, took a step forward.
"Um, yeah, I don't think so, no one is going to lead WindClan except for me!" he shook his head and growled, "Onestar is making a mockery of the clan, I give his leadership qualities a one star review."
"That's actually why I brought you back Mudclaw, Onestar is ruining WindClan, they need you to lead them," Bugeater meowed.
All the cats turned their attentions to him.
"Who are you?" Tigerstar demanded, glaring with his amber eyes.
"Yeah, I don't recall you being a WindClan cat," Mudclaw meowed.
"I'm not a WindClan cat, not yet anyway, I'm actually from the future, I travelled back in time to help you save WindClan!"
"Hm, makes sense I guess," the last cat, a grey cat with dark blue eyes meowed. He then glared at Tigerstar.
"I'm not working with HIM though, he killed my mother!"
"You don't have to work together!" Bugeater spat, slapping Tigerstar, Darkstripe, and the other cat with his paw, "You three weren't supposed to come back, this only concerns Mudclaw."
"I'd make a better leader for WindClan than Mudclaw would," Tigerstar pointed out.
"Agreed, Tigerstar is the handomest, bravest, smartest, strongest cat to ever live!" Darkstripe exclaimed.
"Is not! He's a killer!" the grey cat growled.
"That's rich Ashfur," Tigerstar scoffed, "Coming from some cat who tried to kill their leader, and three young warriors just because some she-cat rejected him."
Ashfur pulled out a gun.
"Say that to my face!" he growled.
"I would, but I don't know what face to say it to," Tigerstar retorted.
Ashfur let out a yowl and pulled the trigger, it was about to hit Tigerstar when Darkstripe jumped in front of the bullet.
He laid on his side, and started gagging.
"I coulda been a contender!" he choked out before dying.
"Well fox dung, now who's going to follow me around and do everything I tell them to do?" Tigerstar growled. He then looked down at the ground.
"HAWKFROST! HAWFROST GET HERE NOW OR YOU'RE GROUNDED!"
"I didn't summon Hawkfrost back, I didn't even want to summon you back, I only wanted to summon Mudclaw back," Bugeater sighed.
"Well, I'm glad you summoned me back, now I can tell everyone the truth about who killed me!" Ashfur exclaimed.
"Not so fast," Tigerstar growled, "You killed Darkstripe, and now you must pay!"
"I don't think so!" Ashfur pulled out a knife.
"Oh? You think that little knife is going to scare me? I am the great and powerful Tigerstar!" Tigerstar threw back his head and started laughing manically.
Ashfur let out an angry cry and threw the knife, it ended up embedding itself into a squirrel.
"Well, that's one way to catch a squirrel," Bugeater snorted, trying to ease the tension.
"Hey Tigerstar, I had an idea, how about we get the squad back together? It'll be like old times sake, just you, me, Longtail, and Dustpelt!" Darkstripe exclaimed, suddenly alive again for some reason. Bugeater didn't question it.
"No way, Longtail is blind now, and all Dustpelt does these days is make kits," Tigerstar meowed.
"Well, at least he had all his kits with the same mate, unlike you!" Ashfur spat.
"At least I had kits!" Tigerstar retorted.
Ashfur growled and pulled out Scourge.
"Hey, what's going on?" Scourge cried in his high pitched voice.
Tigerstar shuddered slightly when he remembered how Scourge had taken all his nine lives with one claw.
"That was a low blow," he grumbled to Ashfur.
"Don't hate me because you ain't me!"
"I don't want to be you, you're pathetic."
"Yeah!" Darkstripe cried.
"You're all pathetic," Mudclaw grumbled.
The four cats started yowling at each other, but Bugeater tuned them out, maybe it was a bad idea to bring Mudclaw back, maybe he should have tried to deal with Onestar himself.
Finally, after what seemed like moons, the fighting stopped.
"We decided to all be friends," Darkstripe meowed.
Tigerstar nodded.
"Yeah, we're going to work together to do some stuff."
"What kind of stuff?" Bugeater asked, not sure if he liked where this was going, but at least they were fighting anymore.
"Super secret stuff," Ashfur meowed.
"We're going to pretend to be loners, and join the clans, and then take them over from the inside!" Darkstripe exclaimed.
"You weren't supposed to tell them that!" Tigerstar growled.
"It's not going to work, only ThunderClan will accept loners," Mudclaw meowed, he had not been part of their discussion.
"I don't think ThunderClan will accept loners anymore, not after how mean all the other clans have been to us," Ashfur meowed.
"There is also another problem, we look exactly how we did when we died, how will we keep them from knowing it's us?" Tigerstar meowed.
"Make-overs!" Ashfur sang out.
Bugeater groaned, what had he done?
