" Fallenmist opened her eyes, the world was blurry at first, then came into focus. She thought about where she was and what had happened. "Ohno!shadedwillow...thunder-" she cut off as a grey tabby tom looked at her, with a questioning look. "Um..." She said nervously. She had never met shadowclan's emmeicine/em cat. So she didn't know his name either.
;" "What was that you said, something about shade...and thunder?" He asked. Still messing with herbs.
Fallenmist sighed, emI wish I was back in thunderclan...no...it's not my home anymore. As far as everyone there is concerned, I'm the traitor. Not shadedwillow.../em. Fallenmist thought. "Oh, yes. Um I was just thinking of a dream I had. " she lied. And watched as the tom walked over to her.
He nodded. "Yes, well, I'm silverleaf. Nice to meet you, my mentor is littlecloud. Though I think he is about ready to croak." The tom laughed a bit. "He is so old, he saw the battle with the dark cats. " he smiled friendly.
Fallenmist cocked her head. Thinking. (since when are shadowclan's cats this nice!?). She stretched, wincing at the pain on her back and flanks. The tom looked at her.
"Oh, careful. You might not want to open your wounds again. You were almost bled out when my brother, hawkeyes brought you into camp." The tom explained, pushing some moss to fallenmist.
" "Thank you..." Ashe said, just as a dark tabby time walked in. Roanstar...
"Silverleaf, I hope you are not bothering this she-cat, she needs to heal. So that she can leave our territory. " he growled. Then looked at fallenmist. "You, what is your name?" He asked, looming over her.
(what do I say!? I can't say fallenmist...he will question me. Um think...think! I'm supposed to be dead, so I guess..). "Spirit" she said quickly, then silently cursed, not wanting that to of been what she said.
The leader looked at her, skeptical. "Funny, you look similar to thunderclan's deputy..." He growled softly.
Fallenmist, or rather spirit now, shrank back. "W-what's thunderclan?" She tried to sound scared, but it didn't come out like that. She was too bold of a cat.
Silverleaf looked up from his herbs. "Oh, it's a rival clan, there are four in total. Riverclan, wind clan, thunderclan, and our clan. Shadowclan". He smiled, but shrank back with a glare from roan star.
"Yes, that is...correct. Now, follow me loner. " he said, walking out of the medicine den.
Spirit followed, pain in her sides. She blinked as she stepped into the light. She saw that shadowclan's camp looked like thunderclan's. Kits playing. Elders chatting and telling stories. Queens sun bathing, warriors talking and apprenticed showing off. She saw where roan star was, beside a black tom and walked over. "Um...hi..." She said, shocked by the tom's strangely bright green eyes.
"This is hawkeyes, he is the cat who brought you into our camp." Roan star growled, then flicked an ear. "I will tell him his punishment later, for it may change. " he finished, then looked to spirit. " rouge, do you have a place to stay?" He asked.
The tom, hawkeyes, looked furious. "Roan star! You can't be seriously thin-" he was cutoff by his leader.
"Hawkeyes! Silence, I am your leader, and you my deputy. My word is law, or do you want to challenge me?" The large tom growled.
Spirit rolled her eyes. (Shadowclan, always think they are better than somecat else. And always fighting.) "um, no I don't have a place to stay." She replied, trying to sound weak.
"Very well, you shall join this clan. And..." He looked to his deputy. "Hawkeyes shall mentor you. Even though you look to be his age, you still do not understand clan life. So for 6 moons he will teach you our ways." He hissed. Then looked back at spirit. "Understood, spirit paw?" He asked. And she nodded. Satisfiedd, roan star walked away.
Hawkeyes glared at her, his ears flat. He came close to her ear, and hissed silently "I know you are no normal rouge, you are to bold and I don't trust you. " he said, then straightened up. "Go and catch me an adder, spirit...paw. Then we will start real training. He sneered then walked away.
Spiritpaw hissed. Then trotted out of the camp, ignoring the pain she felt. "I'm supposed to be deputy of thunderclan...instead I'm being treated like an outcast. Why did this happen to me? Has starclan forsaken me?" She sighed, and began to look for an adder.
Pit wasn't long before she found one, and she knew how to kill them. Since her mentor was a ruthless cat. It was her hunting assessment every time. She killed the large snake, hating the sour tang of its blood. And then headed back to the shadowclan's camp.
"There you go, hawkeyes. One genuine adder. " she sneered. Dropping the snake at the egotistical toms paws.
His eyes went to slits. "How did you kill it? " he asked, angrily.
"Uh duh. I snapped its neck. " she purred. (Oh I'm gonna enjoy this. A deputy training a former deputy! Too funny) she thought. "Now, can we start the real training?" She asked.
"Fine. " he said, tossing the snake into the bramble wall. Then looked at spirit paw. His green eyes brighter than before with many emotions. "Let the real training start...spirit paw". He leaned in close again. "Or should I say, the famous adder killer...and deputy of thunderclan..." He paused. "Fallenmist?"
Spiritpaw's heart stopped.
