Hi! Sorry I haven't updated in ages, but I'm a little busy getting ready for school and such. Not much to say except that there are a few sayings that I made up in this chapter. I'm also trying to write more on this one, but chapters are really long, so it can be difficult to write stuff for it. So answers to reviews!

Iceberry2666-Yeah I think a lot of people feel bad for Fangkit. I wouldn't stay too sorry for her. She's gonna have some pretty sassy parts. Hm. Well, I usually plan stuff before I write. Seriously. Sometimes I have the whole story written in my head before I even start writing. That's kind of the case for Stormstar's Apprentice. Good job too! Thanks!

Now as that was the only review, on to the chapter!

Chapter Three

(Talonstar, Windclan)

"We banish them!" Talonstar whispered in the petrified medcine cat's ear. He then walked out, stretching to ease the stiffness in his back.

"Cats of Windclan! Gather here beneath the Leader's Rock!" he waited for all the cats to appear, even Walnutwhisker, whose face was grim.

"Aspenfur, Singetuft, get your kits," Talonstar ordered, a mad grin flashing across his face. He waited a moment for their kits to appear. They came out sqealing with excitement.

"Fangkit, step forward," he growled.

"Look at me. What do you see?"

"You, and a cloud that covers half my face. Why is the cloud there?"

"You cannot see. That is a weakness!" he paused, listening to the queen's gasps of shock and horror as they realized what was happening.

"We cannot afford weakness in this clan, therefore, you are banished, and we will not hesitate to kill you if you return! You have until sunset to be out of our territory! Any cat that helps the outcast will share his fate," Talonstar hissed before whipping around and heading back into his den at the base of the large rock.

He was pleased. It had been a while since a cat had been banished, and it had felt good to let out some of his anger. Why, he had seen a tear in the kit's eye. He started pacing, excited at the thought of a chase if the kit came back. He paced until he fell asleep.

Later, when he woke up, he found a large rabbit in front of him. Without thinking, he ravenously tore into the rabbit. He noticed that it tasted funny. Bitter, he thought. That's when he noticed the dark shape of a cat in the entrance.

"Goodbye Talonstar," it meowed, it's voice echoed hauntingly in his ears. He began to notice that his legs were like lead, he couldn't breath, and his vision was beginning to go blurry. He tried to stand, and slipped in the juice leaking from the rabbit, staining his paws the same color. With one last gasp, he collapsed and moved no more, his paws stained with the blood-red juice of deathberries.

(Eagleshadow, Braveclan)

Eagleshadow was walking across clan territories. He stopped when he heard a cry. Barely moving, he lifted his nose to see what it was. Thunderclan, she-cat, blood, and…..fear? Maybe this cat needed help. Staying downwind of her, he crept through the trees to see a pretty light brown she-cat with blue eyes. She was about to collapse,then she saw him and passed out. Fox dung, now you've been seen badger brain, he told himself. However, he could not help feeling like he should help her. He picked her up so she was on his shoulders, then he started to walk out of the territories. When he was a good distance away from them and waited for her to wake.

When she did, she looked around, obviously confused. She caught sight of him, and opened her mouth to speak, when he spoke first.

"What's your name?"

"I'm Oliveleaf, from Thunderclan," she answered. "Who are you?"

"That will be answered in good time. Why aren't you in Thunderclan, if you are a Thunderclan cat?" he meowed, continuing to question her.

"I was exiled from my clan…" she meowed, her voice cracking at the end of the sentence.

He frowned. There was nothing wrong with her appearance besides scratches.

"Why?"

"I cared too much for the lives of my kits," she answered.

"Follow me," he meowed heading towards the outlaw camp. He was now sure she was not a clan spy.

She kept up fairly well for her injuries, but they soon had to stop. They were both tired and Eagleshadow's breathing problem slowed him down.

"Ugh, I can't keep going like this," Oliveleaf whined.

"Right, we'll take a break here," Eagleshadow agreed. "Oh, and my name is Eagleshadow."

"Eagleshadow? But he went missing seven moons ago!"

"I'm the same Eagleshadow," he confirmed.

"Oh, okay," she meowed, still not quite believing it.

"Alright, we should start moving again," he meowed, looking at how dark it was getting.

"Okay," she agreed. They got up and started walking again without issues. By moonhigh, they were just outside the camp.

"Wait here," Eagleshadow told her. She sat down and began to wash. Eagleshadow, slightly out of breath, walked through the camp entrance.

"Where's Moorfeather?" he asked the closest cat, which was Sedgefoot.

"Last I saw her she was in her den," she told him.

"Thanks," he replied, walking to Moorfeather's den on the other side of the camp.

"Moorfeather?" he asked, stopping just outside her den.

"Ugh, come back later," she meowed yawning from the cave in the rock.

"I've brought another cat from the clans," he told her.

"Alright, I'll get up for this," she called. Eagleshadow hopped up to call the cats to the middle of their camp.

"Just this once!" Moorfeather called after him.

(Brackenheart, Riverclan)

Brackenheart stretched and got up. She looked outside and saw the dawn patrol leaving. She walked up to Firethorn.

"Can I join the dawn patrol?" she asked.

"Get going! They just left," he snapped. She dipped her head and ran out to catch up to the four cats. The leader of the patrol, Hazelthorn, looked back and nodded at her. It wasn't unusual for Brackenheart to join the dawn patrol.

"We're patroling the Windclan border," Hazelthorn told her. Brackenheart nodded, her thoughts starting to wander as they walked. She was jerked back to Riverclan when a new scent appeared. Windclan? What's Windclan doing on this side of the border? Cautiously, she followed the scent, noticing how fresh it was. She heard a squeak behind a bush. Slowly, she crept up to it, and saw….a kit.

(Larkfang, Shadowclan)

Larkfang sulked away from the camp after Sunshade and Moonshade had returned to the camp. Argh! Why does Moonshade always have to barge in on my chances to talk to Sunshade? His sister really is starting to become nuisance.

"Hi Larkfang!"

He's a nuisance to.

"Whatcha doing?"

Why does every cat in this clan have to bother me?

"Larkfang? Are you even listening to me?"

I wish I wasn't.

"Well, I'll see you later, I guess."

Hehe, works every t- "Wait what?"

"I'll see you later." Larkfang looked at who was talking to her. Oops. It was her little brother, Rootpaw. She had though it was Stripepelt. The annoying tom followed her everywhere.

"Right," she replied.

(Icefur, Thunderclan)

Icefur padded out of the nursery just as Rainpaw came fuming back in to camp. That tom is getting too big for his fur. Hawktail should really do something about it. Stagkit, Rosekit, and Tallkit all tumbled out a moment later. She sighed. She loved her kits, but sometimes three kits were just too much for one queen.

"Icefur! Icefur! Come play moss-ball with us!" Rosekit squeaked.

"Maybe later, Rosekit," she meowed.

"Please!" Stagkit pleaded.

"Please, with a mouse on top!" Tallkit whined.

"Oh all right. Just for a little bit," she agreed, giving in.

"Yay! I'll be it first," Stagkit squealed. Icefur couldn't stop from smiling at the kits enthusiasm. Half of her wanted them to stay kits forever and play moss ball all day, but the other half wanted them to grow up and give her some peace. Oh well. You should enjoy it while it lasts.

So, enjoyable? Creepy? Funny? Any opinions, suggestions, requests, or any other forms of thought on this chapter?

Who is your favorite character after these three chapters?

My personal favorite so far is Moonshade. I made her cheerful. I am also going to announce that I'm going to take a break from my other story and just focus on this one for a while. Please review and hope you enjoyed this chapter!
