Skypaw shuffled around the herbs in Silverpools den. Cougarpaw silently waited for Silverpool to come to her den. With no warning, Lioneyes padded in. "Cougarpaw, Im not worried on why your in here, but it's time for training, come now." he meowed with a flick of his tail. Lioneyes padded out waiting for Cougarpaw. Cougarpaw looked in Lizardpaws direction. "You and Skypaw stay and look for signs of things that could tell us whats up with Silverpool." meowed Cougarpaw. Lizardpaw nodded. Cougarpaw noticed he was no longer in this alone, no matter if he wanted them there for him or not, they would be there. He raced out, Lioneyes at his side. "So my apprentice, are you okay? Why were you in the medicine den?" Lioneyes meowed still padding out. Cougarpaw sighed. "We...were just waiting for Silverpool...Lizardpaw wasn't feeling too well." Cougarpaw verified lyingly.
Cougarpaw and Lioneyes entered the training hollow astounded by the sudden falling of snow. "Perhaps it's not a good time to train, Well with the snow and all." Lioneyes boomed. "Nah, we can train, I don't want to have to wait another dawn for my first training session." Cougarpaw meowed. "Well, I was't offering a choice, but if you think you can handle it, very well." Lioneyes meowed. "Attack me, lets see what you know." Lioneyes purred. This is my chance, use your old skills...Why shouldn't I kill Lioneyes? I need to refresh my blood thirst...or I will turn into a goodie goodie. Cougarpaw was still unsure of what to do...should he use Lioneyes as his first victim in this new form? or let it go.
Cougarpaw clawed Lioneyes side, then dug his claws through the golden cats fur leaving a huge gash. Cougarpaw grabbed Lioneyes neck with his peircing fangs and slid under Lioneyes belly, from there jumping on his back, Lioneyes was stunned, not having time to think as he was pushed into the thickness of the snow. Cougarpaw had decided to not kill his mentor, he wouldn't have a reason to kill him besides refreshing his blood lust sence. Lioneyes shook his fur off as he stood tall. "Very good! We best head back to camp though." Rumbled Lioneyes happily. Cougarpaw nodded.
Cougarpaw padded into the medicine den, hoping to spot his new friends, but they weren't there. Cougarpaw sighed. You should have known you couldn't trust anyone in this foul stench of a clan. Just as he was giving up hope, skypaw nearly rammed into him with excitment. "Cougarpaw! The deputy Sandrain announced who's attending the gathering! All of us get to go! Me, you, and Lizardpaw!" she nearly choked with excitment. Cougarpaws eyes half way brightend before they went dim again. "Did you and Lizardpaw find any clues?" he meowed. "Actually we found a bit of blood, and a broken fang, I think it must belong to one of our cats unless a cat of another clan ambushed us." she pointed out gently. "We should go to territory, now, I swear I scented something like blood out there, I saw a blood trail, and It couldn't have been mine or Lioneyes, unless I gave him a bloody claw through the heart because I saw no heavily bleeding scars on him when we traveled back." Cougarpaw concluded. Skypaw narrowed her eyes. "Did you check yourself though?" She meowed. "No." Cougarpaw meowed simply.
Skypaw nodded in understanding. "Let me check you." she meowed. Before Cougarpaw could object, Skypaw was looking at his shoulders and looked at his ears and she was feeling around his back and shoulders. Cougarpaw felt only a bit uncomfortable, he blushed for the first time as Skypaw finished. "No swelling, and no bleeding." She announced. Lizardpaw came in with a smile. "So whats up?" Lizardpaw meowed. "Well if no bleeding on you or on Lioneyes, it's someone elses. Was the blood dry?" Skypaw asked Cougarpaw. Cougarpaw nodded. "Then lets have a look in the territory." meowed Cougarpaw.
Cougarpaw followed in behind Lizardpaw, Skypaw in the back. The territory was lit with the same spooky light as the medicine den was before. Skypaws jaw dropped. Lizardpaw was feeling sick by a sudden sickening scent. Cougarpaws eyes were wide in suprise. "It's a dead cat!" shouted Cougarpaw. A gray body was laid aggainst a blood splattered tree in a mysterious light.
