Voice on the wind

Voice on the wind

Harepaw slipped into thunderclan territory. The wind rustled behind him and he jumped at the sound. Almost there, he thought to himself. And slowly, he crept into the brambles and waited.

Hollypaw (3 weeks and 1 gathering earlier)

Hollypaw crept slowly toward the gorse tunnel, she smelled mouse! A large gray figure sprinted out of the tunnel, and she pounced on it. "Get off!" Cinderpaw cried playfully. "You're killing me!" Hollypaw laughed and stepped off of her friend. "Come on," Cinderpaw meowed. "Brackenfur sent me to bring you on dawn patrol." Hollypaw nodded and sprinted out of camp after her. "Where are they?" She meowed to her friend. Cinderpaw shrugged. "Down by Windclan border I guess." Hollypaw's ear's twitched. Windclan had been threatening to take a lot of thunderclan's land, because of the arrival of 8 new kits. Eight! Though they hadn't taken any yet, Hollypaw knew they wouldn't hold off for long. When they reached the border, they found Brackenfur, Sandstorm, cloudtail, and Millie waiting for them.

Brackenfur was bristling, and Hollypaw could see the anger in Cloudtails eyes. "They moved the border!" He spat. He was right. She could smell that it had been moved at least four mouse lengths. "Windclan patrol." Millie meowed. Six windclan cats were padding down the hill. Whitetail, swiftclaw, and Breezepaw were among them. She couldn't remember the others names. "You stole our land!" Brackenfur hissed as they came forward. Breezepaw was glaring at them, and Whitetails fur began to bristle. Hollypaw stared at the windclan cats angrily. How dare they take Thunderclan land! She stepped forward, her pelt bristling, and fell straight into the stream.

"Aghhh!" she cried. Her paw's churned through the water as she fell. "Hollypaw! She heard Brackenfur cry. She grabbed her paw's to dry land and hauled herself out of the water, covered in mud. Swiftcalaw snorted, and another apprentice known as sedgepaw rolled over in laughter. Surprisingly though, Breezepaw said nothing. He was staring at her intently. " Hey wait a minute." He meowed. I recognize you from that Riverclan patrol awhile back!" Sandstorm, who had been licking her, froze mid-lick. Ashfoot stiffened. "What!" she hissed. "Thunderclan has built an allegiance with riverclan?" Breezepaw shrugged. "I don't know." He meowed. "Maybe she just look like the cat in Riverclan when she's covered in mud1" his whiskers twitched and she could see him on the edge of a snigger. "There is no allegiance between thunderclan and riverclan!" She hissed jumping forward. "Careful Hollypaw!" He sneered. "You might fall in again!" She yowled and jumped on top of him. How could he? She raked her claws across his pelt and he howled in pain. 'Hollypaw stop!" She heard her clan mate's cry. "Breezepaw cut it out!" Swiftclaw growled. He bit down on her ear and tossed her off him.

"How do you like that?!" He growled, his tail twitching. She lunged at him again but was cut short when another cat leaped on her, pinning her down. Brackenfur was glaring at her. "When I say stop, you stop!" He seethed.

He let her up and she crawled out from under him shamefully. She had let her temper get the better of her. "This isn't over! 'Ashfoot growled as she led them away. At the top of the hill, she saw Breezepaw turn and flick his tail at her. She drew back startled. Was that just a game to him? He was just trying to annoy her! "Your in trouble when we get back to camp." he growled. She sighed and padded behind her clan mates, her tail dragging slowly over the soft grass.
