Leopardheart's POV
I opened one eye and then the next. I saw a ceiling of leaves and moss. A yawn escaped my mouth as I slowly got up from my comfy moss bed and stretched. I looked around the den and saw other warriors around me sleeping.
Phew, I didn't sleep in
I poked my head out of the warriors' den entrance and peered up at the sky. From the location of the sun, I could tell it was still early in the morning. I sat at the entrance for a bit, staring into the sky.
The dawn patrol began to walk into camp. I greeted the four cats, Bonetail, Snaketooth, Wolfeyes, and Hawkpaw, as they all walked past me. Snaketooth padded over to me and I smiled in greeting to him.
He flicked his tail in greetings and sat down across from me. "The patrol went smoothly but we did notice something odd," he meowed as he curled his tail around his feet. "And what is that,?" I questioned. He looked at me, as if he were thinking. "Well, as we were nearing the Riverclan border, we spotted a twoleg," He replied thoughtfully.
Isn't that normal?
"And how is this odd,?" I asked, slightly annoyed. "Actually, that isn't the odd part," he began. "The twoleg didn't act like a normal twoleg." I stared at him, confused. I let out a purr, "No twolegs are normal." He smiled at my joke but his face got serious again as he continued.
"What I mean is that it didn't yowl like the normal twolegs. It sounded like it was groaning and grunting. The way it moved was strange too. It kind of limped and dragged its feet along. It also looked as if its bare skin was... Rotting,..." he said, his eyes in a thoughtful squint.
I stared at him, thinking, for a moment.
Well, that is pretty odd...
"You mean to say, its flesh was rotting,?" I questioned. He nodded. I widened my eyes in surprise. "OK, thanks for reporting to me, Snaketooth." I dismissed him with the flick of my tail and he padded away.
Now to see what Lightstar thinks of this...
