Sorry I haven't posted in a while. School is ending, so I have more time on my hands. Here is a checklist, cause I have been getting complaints.
Star Meadow is BloodClan's StarClan.
Scourge is in Star Meadow.
Bark is injured.
Lionblaze is keeping secrets.
Mossflower feels WTF major.
Mossflower licked her kits goodbye and headed back to BloodClan. But, what she saw wasn't pretty. All the cats were crying in anguish and pain, and, they were surrounding a body. "What happened?" Mossflower asked.
"This happen, Moss." Wind moved to the side, so Mossflower could get a view. On the ground was Brick, a strong BloodClan cat, dead. Mossflower felt upset, and at the same time, an uncontrollable rage.
"Who did this?" Mossflower was hoping for one word not to come up. Sun and Ice looked at her.
"Sun, flip his body over, please?" Sun nodded at Ice's request and flipped Brick over. There, they were a series of slashes that made an X symbol. "It's the exiles. That is there symbol. They are going to kill us in revenge."
"Why did Brick leave the camp?"
"Brick was on guard last night for the camp." Stone answered. "They probably ganged up and killed him before he got a word out." Mossflower felt a tear come out of her eye, and roll down her cheek. It landed in Brick's pelt, and, Mossflower had the feeling that he would be happy in the Star Meadow. Mossflower shared her grief, and Stone was staying with Wind, who was Brick's mate. She now knew a little more about the exiles. They fought dirty. She jumped on the Silver Can, and begun to speak.
"All Cats of BloodClan, small and large, please gather around the Silver Can for a clan gathering! And, someone laid Brick's body under here." All the cats solemnly gathered under the rock, placing Brick's body underneath. "Brick was one of BloodClan's strongest fighters. He served nobility and well, and died to protect the ones he loved most, you guys. He deserved to become great, and his young death shakes us all. At least we all know that our amazing warrior is now in the Star Meadow, where he will live his afterlife without a pain in the world. For now, he is watching us, and is guarding us with his strength." All the BloodClan cats yowled in grief and agreement. The eldest clan members started to carry Brick's body out of camp, toward the cat graveyard. Wind and Stone accompied them, with their heads down. Mossflower sighed. She wanted to stay, but it was nearly sun-down, and, according to Firestar's rules, she needed to head back to camp. Mossflower bid the cat's goodbye, and started to walk home.
Once back at ThunderClan, Mossflower plopped herself on the floor. Lionblaze came up to her with two mice and a vole. "Hey." Lionblaze mewed.
"Hey yourself. You have been on more patrols lately." Mossflower gave a disapproving stare.
"Yeah, I am really sorry. Brambleclaw wants me to do double, because of the threat of ShadowClan. They moved the border."
"Again? When will they stop?! Those mousebrains are greedy." Mossflower blinked.
"I know. Sorry. I am free now. Want to share a meal?" Lionblaze pushed a mouse to her paws. Mossflower stood up.
"Do I have a choice, mousebrain?" Mossflower chuckled. Lionblaze nuzzled her and began to eat.
LIONBLAZE POV: *lionblaze's Edward moment*
I could smell her sweet fur while I ate. Mossflower never looked prettier. I was angry at myself for accepting all these patrols. Hollyleaf has been edgy too, ever since Squirrelflight admitted we weren't her kits. And now Ashfur is dead. Oh, when am I going to tell Mossflower. Darn this stupid prophecy. Why can't I live a normal life with my mate and kits!
"Lionblaze?" Mossflower asked. She always cared about me. She could tell when I was distracted. Her icy blue eyes were so soft.
"Murgh, nothing." I bent down and continued to eat my meal. Mossflower was having a pretty tough life too, with the recent defeat of WindClan, and now these Exiles. She was so honest with me. Its time I was honest too….
