Guest: "If you're going to write a story, at least give them decent names. Journeyspot, Cornerpaw, and Journeypaw are dumb names.

Me: Hey, your opinion bro. Still not changing the names. Also, that was a little rude...

Also, sorry for the short-ish chappy again.


"As you all know," Goldstar announced, "Journeyspot is dead. But her kits have risen up as Shadowpaw, Journeypaw, and Cornerpaw."

Journeypaw felt warm and comforted by the yowls of approval from all four Clans.

"Journeypaw! Cornerpaw! Shadowpaw!"

Goldstar waited for the yowling to settle down. "Now, then. Prey has been running well in ThunderClan. I am finished; Reedstar may continue."

Reedstar took the attention of all the cats in the clearing. "Thank you, Goldstar. I'm sad to announce that a beloved elder, Streampelt, is dead."

Yowls of disappointment ran through all of the Clans, but Shadowpaw and Journeypaw were silent.

Who's Streampelt? Apparently an elder...

Reedstar yowled for everyone to be quiet. "Now then... Heatpaw has taken the name of Heatshine as a fully-taught medicine cat. He will, however, remain as Floatingstone's apprentice, as normal."

Yowls ran through the Clans once again. "Heatshine! Heatshine! Heatshine!"

Reedstar waited for them to quiet down. "Now then, Brightstar may begin."

Before Brightstar could speak, a yowl, almost broken, ran through the clearing.

Journeypaw cocked her head, but then in an instance remembered whose yowl that was.

Cornerpaw?

She ran to where the yowl came from, followed by Shadowpaw and Nightleaf. Soon, a few more of ThunderClan went to follow too.

They burst through the shrubs and climbs over some undergrowth to find Cornerpaw fighting off a two cats, one big, one small.

Journeypaw saw Nightleaf run forward and pounced on the huge brown tom, who was pinning down Cornerpaw, and then Journeypaw ran to take on the smaller one.

She bit the mysterious tom's ear, and he countered with strike to the underbelly, flipping her over. He pinned her down, and Flyingclaw came to her rescue, knocking the tom in once direction and her in another. Shadowpaw soon joined him, but their battle was interrupted by Goldstar's voice.

"What are you cats doing?"

Journeypaw instantly explained, "There were two cats hurting Cornerpaw!"

Goldstar's face turned from accusing curiosity to shock. "Who two cats?"

Flyingclaw answered her, "It was Zephyrclaw and Talbreeze of WindClan, Goldstar."

Cornerpaw moaned, and Journeypaw padded over to him.

"Cornerpaw? A-Are you okay...?"

Cornerpaw opened his mouth to speak, but Smallleaf's voice sounded.

"Out of the way!"

Instantly, most of the cats gathered around backed away to make a path for Smalleaf.

Journeypaw could see now Zephyrclaw and Tallbreeze, shrunk back, surrounded by ThunderClan members and a few other cats. By their scent, it was WindClan.

Journeypaw suddenly noticed Hoppingstar glaring at the two warriors.

She turned her attention back to Cornerpaw, but he was gone. She looked around a little, and Smalleaf was carrying Cornerpaw down the tree bridge. Once on land, she began to dash towards the Thunderclan camp.

Goldstar turned her head solemnly. "ThunderClan... We're leaving."

Hoppingstar joined her, signalling her tail for her Clan to follow.

Poor Cornerpaw...
