Thanks for the reviews!! And thank you to Brightheart for her character submission of Frostpaw. I shall include him. And Nightwing from ThunderClan for your submission of Skypelt I shall include her. (I might have to include Skypelt in the next chappie)
In ThunderClan every cat is frantic as they search rapidly for Bluepaw. They searched for Barleypaw but gave up, considering the fact that he may have gone back to his old life.
Tigerpaw ducked into the warriors den and began to dig through the moss; his friend Frostpaw stood in the entrance watching.
"I dunno why you're looking," he said, raising a black-and-brown paw to draw his salmon tongue over the pad. "It's obvious that Bluepaw and Barleypaw ran off together." Frostpaw was the second oldest apprentice who was being mentored by Goldenflower. He was known for his barbed tongue and his care for himself and his ally Tigerpaw.
"The only reason I'm looking is because Longstar ordered it," Tigerpaw sneered, standing up from his work. "Let's go find Redpaw and go hunting, I'm starving!"
Frostpaw nodded his head briefly, his eyes glittering.
Back with Scourge:
Barleypaw stared in horror, his amber eyes wide with distress as Scourge let out a poisonous hiss. "Welcome to BloodClan, where your beggining will be your end," Scourge cast an angry glance at Barleypaw.
"And you," he continued, striding up to Barleypaw; "you send one of your forest friends to rescue you?" He spat, the fur along his shoulders bristling. "Bone, get them out of my sight, they die at sunrise."
Bone nodded and lead Bluepaw and Barleypaw away; dropping them off at a dead-end. "Stay," he growled, "I'll be watching."
"I'm sorry that I got you into this, Bluepaw." Barleypaw looked at the ground balefully.
"Why are you here?" Bluepaw asked, ignoring his apology. Her amber eyes glinted in the fading light and her tail-tip twitched.
"This is BloodClan . . ." at first Barleypaw was hesitant, but he found himself spilling every detaul to the blue-gray she-cat. He couldn't seem to stop the gush of words spilling from his mouth.
"And then I met you; I thought that you were so amazing! You were smart and beautiful, instantly I fell in love." Barleypaw stopped, as if he couldn't believe what he had just said.
But Bluepaw was looking at him deeply her eyes glowing with admiration. "I fell in love with you too." She whispered. Then a bright pain flitted over her eyes, "but you're not coming back, are you?" She asked.
Barleypaw glanced at the ground, "no. I must obliterate my ties with BloodClan . . . and ThunderClan." He looked at the beautiful she-cat, her eyes were clouded with pain. "I love you Bluepaw, but we can't be together." He whispered.
Bluepaw pressed her muzzle against his, twining their tails. "I know." She murmered, "but we must get out of here."
Barleypaw nodded his head, "Bone said he'd be watching. But his mate Lurid has had her kits and he'll be looking for the strongest. We won't have much time to get out of here." Bluepaw nodded. "On my signal," he whispered.
Barleypaw lifted his tail and they shot out of their prison. He ran as fast as he possibly could, Bluepaw streaking right behind him. They ran out of Twoleg place until they had crossed into Treecut place.
Bluepaw stopped; "what shall I tell the Clan?"
"Tell them that I was killed by a dog on our journey home," Barleypaw sighed.
"Where shall you go?"
"I shall travel towards Highstones, there is an abandoned Twoleg nest there. That's where you'll find me." Barleypaw paused. "I am no longer a part of ThunderClan or BloodClan. I shall now be known as Barley."
Bluepaw dipped her head, pressing her nose against his flank in a final farewell before shooting off towards the camp.
Sorry that this is so uneventful. But some chapters have to be dull. I'll incluse Skypelt in my next chapter. Sorry. Please review
