So, in this chapter
1) Hawkfrost finds forbidden love
2) Gets appointed
3) Mothwing gets ****ed
"Leopardstar! I have a message for Leopardstar!" Hawkfrost yelled once inside the RiverClan camp.
Leopardstar walked out of her den, annoyed by the disruption.
"What!" she snapped.
"Mistyfoot is dead!" Hawkfrost announced dramatically. Around him, many of the cats, especially the soft queens like Mosspelt, were breaking into tears, screaming no. Hawkfrost allowed himself a millimeter of a grin; step one complete.
"How was this, Hawkfrost," Leopardstar sneered, accusation clear in her voice.
His plan was already made, and so believable that he didn't need to dip into his true ability.
"When I awaited Mistyfoot and Reedwhisker's arrival, a rouge was traveling our borders, and he killed Mistyfoot and Reedwhisker brutally. I managed to kill him, but he and his friends threw Mistyfoot, Reedwhisker, and the rouge in the river; you can even see the traces of blood and bodies left in the rivers," Hawkfrost said confidently, his eyes showing grief as his spirit was exploding with joy.
"Show us," Leopardstar said bluntly, and Hawkfrost smiled, saying he would be more than happy to.
Leopardstar growled silently, and as she stepped toward the camp entrance, two warriors made to follow her.
"No," she snarled, turning on them both. "This is for only me and Hawkfrost!"
(Line Break: For all of you thinking it will be Leopardstar, is it really forbidden?)
"See there?" Hawkfrost said, pointing at the two dead bodies and the blood leaking away from them. "Recognize them?"
Instead, Leopardstar asked, "Where's the rouge?"
Hawkfrost was ready. "Washed away; I ripped out most of him before I threw him in. See?" He pointed to the thin strands of gut stuck between the boulders.
Little did Leopardstar know that it was Reedwhisker's gut, ripped from his flank, and he was put to be placed where his ripped side was unknown.
"So he was so light that he was carried off by the current?" the voice of MOthwing came behind Hawkfrost. The tom in question froze; this was not part of his plan!
"Willowshine," Hawkfrost growled. "What are you doing here?"
"Collecting herbs," she replied through a mouth of herbs.
"Willowshine, do you think this is possible?" Leopardstar asked. Hawkfrost couldn't believe how wrong his plan was going.
Mothwing fidgeted uncomfortably. "Well, I guess it is. If the rouge was killed, then Hawkfrost should have some cuts, right?"
Dread filled Hawkfrost. He completely forgot about that! Then he remembered the cuts he received from the badger attack.
"Erm, I do have battle wounds." Hawkfrost showed a long, jagged cut that was ingrained in his skin from a badger attack. He only hoped that these two were stupid enough to believe him. If not, there was always what happened to Mistyfoot.
"Hmm." Leopardstar eyed a mouse from the corner of her eye. "Whatever. Hawkfrost, you will stay deputy, and Mothwing, escort him back to camp. The ceremony will be on the next sunhigh."
LINE- Big time gap. We are now on the part where Leafpaw comes to visit Mothwing where the poison leaks to the kits
"Here, give them some yarrow," Leafpaw advised as Mothwing was eying Pebblekit.
"She's going to die!"
"No she's not, if you give then yarrow!" Leafpaw argued.
"What's the use?"
"Mothwing!" chirped Minnowkit. "Pebblekit's turning purple!"
Leafpaw ignored Mothwing's cries and instead, stuffed the few stalks into the kits mouth. Upchucking violently, Pebblekit fell onto his side, and closed his eyes.
"He's gone," Leafpaw whispered.
Mothwing wailed silently.
Hawkfrost, who was watching the entire scene from outside, stepped in. "Mothwing, can I speak with you?"
Mothwing nodded feebly. She followed Hawkfrost outside, and then looked at her brother.
"I think you should be remember your priorities."
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, that the ThunderClan idiot is taking your job. Mothwing, now that Leopardstar is off talking with the leaders, I'll have to exile you."
Mothwing's eyes turned to two flat discs as she yelled, "WHAT!"
"By tomorrow, if RiverClan finds you on my- I mean our- territory, they have permission to kill you."
So, there. It was a long chapter. And, I guess you can find out his love.
