We all gasp as we stare at Bird with sadness in our eyes.

Bird looks at us and she was about to say something but she gets distracted as she sees Alderfang and Hawk arguing.

I strain my ears to listen but I couldn't hear them.

I walk past them and head toward the stream that is behind the barn and look at my reflection.

I stare at my ears and then I see small drops of blood dripping out of the inside of my left ear.

I plunge my face in water so i can wipe out the blood from my ear.

When I look back at my reflection I see no more blood coming out.

I suddenly jump as I see Candal walk up towards me.

I could've heard her! I think. "I saw what you did." She says.

"You should go to the medicine cats so they can look at you." I nod numbly and walk towards the medicine cats. "What's wrong?" Leafpool asks, Walking up towards me.

"There's something wrong with my left ear" I say.

She walks to her stack of herbs and she takes a peek in my ear.

"I think Copperpaw has clawed your left ear on your strong nerve in your ear."

She says. "There is a clot of blood right on the edge of your ear. I might be able to take it out but it's going to hurt."

I nod and she makes me sit on a rock and she makes me sleep by making me chew on poppy seeds.

As I wake up, I start to hear things more.

I hear things I haven't heard before like the snail under the rock I was sleeping on, Bird's deep breathing as she sleeps, and I hear a mouse scurry in the distance.

She's done a way better job. I think.

I realize that it's the middle of the night and I think that this is the perfect time to leave.

I see Hawk and Coal talking to each other.

As I walk up to them I hear Hawk say, "I think it's time we head out."

They both looked at me as I walked towards them.

"You want to come with us?" Hawk asks.

"If you'll let me, I will." I say. "Ya, we'll let you."

He says with a smile.

We rise up everyone and once they all wake up, Rose starts panicking. "How do I get my kits to places!? They're too young to go out!" Violet rushes up to calm her sister.

"We'll make sure nothing will happen to them." She says with a soft, Melodic , soothes by her voice, takes a deep breath and walks in the barn rouse the kits. Coal picks up Raven, who is not able to walk yet and starts to head in our direction. I walk towards Cloud, the fluffy white cat and pick him up. Hawk takes Sun the yellow she-kit and Candal walks up toward Rose and guides Rose to us. We head back towards the river and the ditch, were we were beofre we had to go in search of Bird. When we were about to cross the river, Sun starts struggling in Hawks jaws and Sun starts mewling. "She must be hungry." Rose says. Sandy comes up to Hawk and asks if she could take Sun from here. Eager to get the fur out of his mouth, he gives Sandy Sun and walks up towards Coal and starts talking to him. As we cross the river Sky and Raven have started to squirm and mewl a lot. When we finally reach The end of the river, We set the kits on the ground and we start to settle in again. Sandy walks towards Bird, Scoops her up and walks towards Aztec and Cloud and they all start resting and slowly they all drift off into dreams. As I settle into sleep, I can't help but noticing A yellow light out in the distance. I get up and walk towards it. As I walk towards it I hear Cloud creeping up behind me. "What are you doing here? And why are you following me?" I ask. "I wanted to follow you because I was curious about the Yellow light too." He says. "Ok, fine but don't cause any trouble." I say with a sigh. We head toward the light and we see an old object lying on the ground. As we creep up towards it, We hear a loud hiss and i whip around to see a bunch of strays walking up towards us. "Cloud, walk towards me without saying a word." I say quietly. As he walks up towards me, A cat lunges at us. I snarl and swipe at the cat and blood starts coming out of the corner of his ear. More and more start rushing towards us. I slash very cat that comes towards us but every cat I swipe, it seems like more and more keep coming in. I grab Cloud by the scruff and start running towards the clan because thats the only way that was free of stray cats. As I run through Riverclan I look back to see the strays, hard on my tail. I rush into thunderclan by accident and I see all the cats stare at me with surprise. I start running past them and I accidently crash into Bramblestar. I stumble back and run straight past him. I turn my head around again and see some of the strays fighting with the warrior cats but most of the other stray are still following me. I keep running and stumble as I feel pain in my hind paw. I start running clumsily and see Bumblestripe leading a hunting patrol. He sees me and starts yelling at them and says something but I couldn't catch what he said because I rushed passed him and started stumbling over branches as my hind paw starts to throb with pain. I trip over the branch and fall sideways. I get back on my feet and run over to where cloud fell when I fell. I see him get back on his feet. I pick him up again and head towards Thunderclan and past that, is the ditch where everyone is still sleeping, not knowing that Cloud and I are running for our lives.
