Sorry every-reader for taking so long to update, but school work was dragging me down and stuff. BUT IT'S THE HOLIDAYS NOW! So expect more chapters quicker :D
Back in Starclan (Bear's POV)
Petal padded back and forth infront of me. "You idiot!" she snapped,"I thought you would've known not to bring Crystal into this!" I shuffle my paws, not daring to say a thing, Vixen playing with my tail, acting as though nothing was happening. "You were supposed to look after him," she murmured. I look up into Petal's beautiful green eyes.
"I'm sorry, but it was either I got Crystal or he died," I murmur,"I thought it was my best chance, I didn't think it would get me killed." Petal shook her head a few times.
"I know, it's not your fault, it's just, I don't want my family to all die in the space of a few days," she meowed.
He smiled slightly,"Sleet hasn't died yet, he could still survive, maybe some nice loners might find him, bring him up," he mewed. Petal nodded.
"I guess so," she mewed,"I just wished we could've all stayed together as one happy family," she meowed,"Not all but one of us dead." I nod and lick the top of her head.
"Don't worry, he'll be fine, I promise, with my, erm death," he mewed. She chuckled and flicked his ear with her tail,"You idiot," she murmured gently, and licked his nose gently.
Sleet's POV
Talon and Crystal has shoved me out the den. They threatened to kill me, and so I ran away a little, but was worn out before I could get far. It's been a few days now. Without milk I am slowly starving. I ate any berries I could find, but as it was the middle of winter, there weren't eactly any berries around. I sniff, tears streaking down my cheeks,"Mummy, Daddy, come back," I sniff, but it doesn't work. Silence greets my calling.
It seems, as soon as I close my eyes, I am awaked again to the sharp cry of a large crow,"Shut up!" I snap chucking a stone at it. Somehow, a one in a million shot, it hit the crow hard on the head, knocking it from the branch. I creep over, and sniff the dazed crow, the black feather fluttering in the breeze. I bit into it's neck, my kitten teeth new to the taste of blood, it seeps into my throat and I cough slightly, but it was going to be the best meal I could have, at least before I die. So I chew down on it, eating all I can, and discarding the rest of the meat.
I creep onwards, sniffing the air for any sign of a cat. I hear a large rustle, and leap into the air, charging ahead, keeping my eyes on the bush the noise came from, so I didn't see the steep rocky slope before me. I tumble down, rocks slashing my pelt. Before I reach the bottom, darkness covers my world...
