Brightclaw237: Next chapter, hope you all enjoy it. I only own the angel-hounds.
I keep running to reach a den that I made several days ago. When I reach a small clearing, I begin to cry. My vivosaurs soon materialize out of their medals and crowd around me. The pterasaur perches himself onto my right shoulder, while the aquatic reptile nuzzles its snout against my forehead. "That had to be him, who else aside from Yuki, Brightshadow, and Thunderclan would know my former name?" I cry, remembering the only twoleg that I let into my heart. "He's just like Yuki and Sparky, I brought nothing but pain to them!" I growl, slamming my head into the bark of the log that is my den. "Though you are an angel-hound Leo, I cannot be with you." I sigh. "I know that I can't have a paw in both worlds, and I would never return to being a twoleg even if I could! Not after what they did to my home and friends!" I snarl. "I live as a clan warrior, and not as the friend you once knew. I will drive the twolegs away, even if it makes me a pest." I growl.
My ears twitch at the sound of approaching pawsteps. I turn to face my leader and Yuki, they both can sense my distress. "Brightclaw, we heard from Brightshadow, what had happened to the opponent that you saved him from?" Firestar meows.
"Firestar…, I couldn't attack my opponent. He knew who I was." I bark, emphasizing the word was. "He called me by my old name." I bark, clenching my teeth.
"He knew your former name?!" Yuki barks in surprise.
"Yes, but that was because it was Leo" I bark, tears forming in my eyes. Yuki gasps in shock and dashes over to comfort me.
"Leo, that was the twoleg that you had saved long ago. Giving up you life as a twoleg to save his life, correct?" Firestar meows.
"Yes, and he might search for me, I could end up putting all the clans in grave danger!" I exclaim. "I don't know how I'll be able to drive him away with the twolegs. He seems to be keen on protecting them." I sigh.
"Brightclaw, you seem to want to protect them as well." Yuki barks.
"What makes you say that?!" I growl. "The twolegs have brought nothing but pain to me! I can't ever forgive them for what they have done!" I growl.
"Brightclaw, I know deep down that you want to be with Leo. You've been worried about him all these years!" Yuki barks. "You shouldn't deny your feelings, you still want to be with him!" Yuki snarls.
I turn away, knowing what Yuki says is completely true. "Yuki, I am the only one to protect the clans." I bark. "Besides Brightshadow and Tangleclaw, they're the only family I have left. If the clan were to be destroyed…I might become that monster." I cry, digging my claws into the earth.
Firestar walks up to me. "Brightclaw, you have done an excellent job protecting us all." He meows. "If you feel like you belong with that twoleg after your new journey, you may stay with the twolegs. If things do not go well, you are welcome to return to the clan." Firestar meows.
"I'M NOT HUMAN ANYMORE! I DON'T BELONG IN THAT SOCIETY!" I snarl, surprising them all with my outburst. I look away for a moment. "Firestar, you have been a great ally, but an even greater friend through my entire life so far." I bark. I stand on my hind legs and look down at my leader. I take out the strange device and place it around my neck. I press the strange jewel that activates the device and my form changes. I look similar to how I did the day I lost my twoleg form, but my 'hair' goes down to my shoulders instead of my neck. My eyes are still the same sapphire blue as before, but my 'hair' is now a dark blonde color. I can still feel my claws in this form, but it feels like I don't have a tail anymore. My balance is slightly off due to this and Yuki has to help keep me standing. Strangely enough, I feel as if I don't have any fur at all. Though it appears as if I no longer have any wolf ears, my senses are as keen as ever. I reluctantly put the socks and shoes on, making my feet very uncomfortable. I look down at Yuki and Firestar. "I still will not trust any other twoleg, apart from Leo. I will probably still stay with the clan, due to the fact that I no longer have an actual twoleg form." I say, finally getting used to not having a tail. Yuki and Firestar look at my mouth in shock as I speak. Yuki hands me a mirror that she had in her own backpack and shows me what the problem is. Despite the device altering almost all of my appearance, I have four sharp canine fangs. "I'll try, but I belong here in the forest." I sigh.
"Brightclaw, are you ready to head out?" Brambleclaw meows as he catches up, already hearing what has occurred.
"Yes, but we need to head to the opposite side of the forest now." I say, picking the cat up. "Brambleclaw, you'll have to walk beside me this entire time." I say, setting him down. The two of us leave the forest to begin our journey. The sun begins to rise when Brambleclaw and I exit the forest, and I am face to face with Leo once more.
