AN with Longtail:

Longtail: Um…to all of the viewers who are confused with the usual welcome from Emberfox I have to tell you that he is not here. He is at something called "Black Friday" and is with his family for Thanksgiving. He will be back at the end for the usual as well as a message for everyone. Like he would always say: Warriors does not belong to him, Erin Hunter does and Flora, Keith, and Trace do not belong to him, Twokinds creator and author Tom Fischbach does.


Chapter 6: I'll Be Home

Leo's POV

Two hours have already passed since I woke up and even with the movie I couldn't help but think about the prophecy…love to save the clans…that confused me in a few common ways as well as an epiphany. For one Longtail is still alive, for another she will be meeting with an orange she-cat…could it it Princess? No, it couldn't be that… but if it's not her then who is this mysterious cat?

I was caught off guard by the sound of the intercom of the plane and the announcement is made by the stewardess.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, " she began, "in 10 minutes time, we will begin our descent into London Heathrow airport. Please turn off all electronic devices beforehand, all personal belongings are kept with you at all times, and fasten your seat belts. Again from the captain and from all of us, the stewardesses and I, we thank you for choosing Flyby as your preferred airliner; and once more, me will begin our descent into Southampton Airport in 10 minutes."

Keith looked behind our seats to see Flora awake while Trace is still asleep…apparently; I sense a prank coming up. Man, this isn't going to end well…might as well intervene…and maybe even trick her as well. "Hey Flora," I whispered to her behind the ear, "what in the name of sanity are you doing? And how did you even get a pie through the DfT?" She chuckled slightly & silently as she placed the pie back into her bag.

"On how I got the pie is simple: ask them if I can get a cream pie. It only took them 10 minutes to finish it and I have to resist eating it because we haven't gotten anything to eat when we left the hotel. And the pie is for Trace's face as an…April Fools joke."

I looked at her with a confused look plastered on my face. The classical pie tricks…absolutely a classic. "Hey Flora," I whispered back, "I got a sample bottle of ghost pepper hot sauce in my bag and before you even ask, I got it when we were still in New York." Both looked at me funny, but I saw their faces begin to smile a mischievous look. "Are you thinking, what I'm thinking?" I asked them with my devilish smile on my face.

"Yeah." They agreed back.

"So…we'll need to do this when we get off the plane, assuming that they have ended serving beverages (which of course they did), cause I'm going to get a cup of coffee for the prank as well as my absolute need to get caffeine into my system so I wont fall asleep in the trip. Before I get the drinks, I need you to get the tickets for the train to the Ashurst New Forest to distract Trace and for the tickets of course. While you do that, I'll put the sauce into the drink and when he comes and drinks it, he'll never know what'll hit him."

The girls looked at me with yet another smile on their faces. "Agreed." They both said to me & I tapped at Trace to wake up. When he did, I explained to him that we're about to land and that I'm going to get coffee for the four of us. He, of course, agreed to the plan we both began to prepare for the landing.

-TIME SKIP!-


3rd POV

Surprisingly, the plane landed three minutes earlier than the expected time of arrival. The four got off first, going straight to baggage claim. There, they received there checked in bags: four rollers and 4 very large duffels. "You guys, I'm going to get ourselves some coffee while you get the tickets. Sound fair?" he asked as they got out of baggage claim, the three agreed and they both went off to their own destination. As he went to the nearest café near the station but also near the airport, one thought from earlier still lingered in his mind; that thought of course is the dream and the prophecy.

Why? Why would Starclan as my entire group to help Firestar? He thought to himself quietly as he arrived at the café & ordered the coffee. I mean we're only humans and their cats…except Flora and Keith who aren't really human. Four who have healed their broken love…our love once broken? I get that Trace had a wife before his amnesia and maybe even Flora…but my heart wasn't broken by love and it helped me get Keith. I mean it began after Lucas died and as I saw tears running down her gray fur and golden eyes…it broke my heart and even brought each other together so I decided to-

"Sir, three coffees and a latté are ready!" cried the barista holding a tray of venti size cups, ready to be drink up by four people. Leo went up to the barista, tipped her £1.22 while thanking her, and then with the tray he left the café/ Walking back to the train station, he continued thinking about the dream. So…if its not Princess or Firestar's daughter, I mean Longtail can't see anymore during that time and is probably with her sister. Now they could be talking about the original series or the prequels… He suddenly remembered the deed I need to do. Quickly, he grabbed Trace's cup with fluid like speed, grabbed the ghost pepper sauce from his bag, and then poured the liquid into the cup making it into a reddish-brown tinge in the caffeinated elixir. His face gave a devilish smile as he switched the cups with Flora so she can be confused with the four cups and tricking her with the burning elixir.

As he got back to the exact same spot he saw Trace, Flora, and Keith sitting at a bench, waiting for him with tickets on each hand. When he got there, he gave the burning cup to Flora while giving the rest to the others. "Well you guys," he began, "after traveling around Europe for about surprisingly 2 weeks, going through five countries, 22 cities, and spending more money than an average French noble during the Old Regime." The four laughed at the comment, noting the joking sarcasm he is well known for. "Ok all jokes aside, I have something serious to tell you. After seeing all of the cities in all of the parts of Europe and my huge love for nature…I've decided to buy the cottage we're going to stay at and it will be our permanent summer home from now on!" he exclaimed excitedly and they all cheered with pure happiness.

"Well," Flora called out to us, "what are we waiting for? Lets drink!" They clinked the cups and began to drink. As they sipped into the coffee, Leo sent a mental message to Trace to prepare for something funny to happen in trois…deux…un… And on cue, Flora spat the coffee in a comical way and raced out to find water or milk. He laughed out in the look Flora made Which by the way if you seen any anime…it would basically look like that "Oh great Gatsby! Did you see the look on her face?!" he laughed hysterically to both Trace and Keith who are also laughing hard.

"Leo, she looked like a walrus with its tongue on fire!" Tracy laughed back in joy. What seemed like minutes, Flora came back slowly; with a brightly red tongue, a bottle of water, and now…she's walking up to Leo; her eyes creating a burning red sensation with anger, and then grabbed Leo by the collar.

"LEO! WHY THE HELL DID YOU GAVE ME GHOST F %#%^ PEPPERS IN MY DRINK! I THOUGHT WE HAD A DEAL TO TRICK TRACE, NOT A BRUNETT KEIDRAN!"

Leo looked at Flora for a second, to see the damage he had created, which of course he laughed instantly trying not to laugh, but failing miserably. "I'm sorry Flora, but c'mon it's a bit of an opportunity to do it. It's the perfect time, perfect place, and perfect idea that would probably backfire at me in the future." He added while Flora lowered him slowly, but steadily and then…they both laughed in unison. "Ok, I'll have to admit that its pretty funny; deceitful yes, but still funny...I've taught you soo well my dear friend." She hugged Leo with a friendly bear hug. Leo blushed slightly a tiny it but hugged back. The group continued talking until the train came and during the ride, they continued having fun, laughing, and just being together…like a family at Thanksgiving…


Meanwhile…in the area near the twolegplace and Thunderclan Camp about…near 6:00 pm

Amy's POV

Hours have passed since I've talked to Wolfy about my…interesting encounter with a handsom- I mean nice Thunderclan warrior with an absolutely stunning accent that is unrecognizable to me. It sounded like an Australian tone and…he looked handsome with blond fur with black streaks around it. And on his paws, black as well. He seemed very intimidating but…after talking to him…all I can think about were his emerald eyes. Its mesmerizing eyes, that cheeky smile he made when he apologized to me the other night and when we were talking…it felt like an opening, that smile, to the window of the soul as he entered mine…

My trance was suddenly broken by the noise of Wolfy calling me, where I just turned my head around & asked her another question, "Hey Wolfy," I began calmly, "why in the name of sanity did I even allow you to come with me to meet him? I mean you would probably embarrass me." Wolfy sighed.

"I've already told you to it was an accident & I thought that we would forget about that."

"Yeah but-" I was interrupted by the tail of Wolfy covering my mouth. "Like I said, it's the past and…" she stopped for a moment looking behind and suddenly Longtail came out of the bushes, "I believe your sweetheart is here!" she added with a mischievous voice. I looked around to see Longtail padding up in front of Wolfy and me. "Amy." He began, "Right on time at the right rendezvous point however…I haven't expected any other guests coming joining us tonight. Care to explain?"

"Um…I can explain. Uh you see-" I was interrupted again by Wolfy as she came up to Longtail. "Hi! I'm Wolfy, nice to meet ya!" she introduced, "Are you Longtail? Are you actually from the forest where wild cats live? Do you really have a 'long tail'?" she stopped for a bit and padded around him to get a good look of him. "And you are really good looking. No wonder Amy has dreams about you; you're basically the cat version of Adam Levine or…Matt Damon?" after she said that reference of Adam Levine, I blushed a dark crimson red and…so did Longtail.

"Meh, I'll think about it later. But anyway-" I had to stop her from further embarrassing me, so I raised a paw on her mouth to stop her from talking. While I tried to muffle her voice, Longtail looked at me with a confused look on his face perfectly common when others meet Wolfy. "Don't worry about it." I laughed nervously, "It kind of happens most of the time & it even seems kind of a pain to deal with at times. I'm still surprised that we're friends at all."

He laughed slightly at what I said and I blushed a tiny bit. "Don't worry about it." He reassured me, "It sort of happens at the camp." I gave him a shy smile, as we continued on to the original rendezvous point, but…apparently there is something happening in the twolegplace where no one lived for some time…at lease I thought I did.

"Hey you guys," I called out to the two, "lets go to that tree up there." Pointing my tail up to a tree just away from the house, hidden by the shadows, but visible enough to see the house. When we got up to the tree, I turned my head around to Wolfy and asked her a simple question. "Um Wolfy, since when are there humans living in that house?"

"Oh! That's what I meant to tell you! Um…you see you know that no one lived in that cottage since Henry went to the vet & lose his 'cathood' but just today and also yesterday, a few people went by the house, placed up a sold sign, and then a bunch of people went into the house with a lot of furniture with them. But now…I'm seeing four young people coming into, what seems like a party, and…it looks like-"

"Surprise y'all! Welcome to your new home you guys!"

The Twolegs shouted as Wolfy, Longtail, and I jumped slightly as they interrupted Wolfy's rant. "… And it looks like the new neighbors are here –sighs– and now Longtail and Amy, 'let us step into the night…and pursue that flighty temptress, adventure.'"

Longtail looked at me with another confused look, and then I answered back to him. "Don't worry about it. She usually quotes from Harry Potter books and sometime from Doctor Wh- you have no idea what I'm talking about do you?" I questioned him, he shook his head. I sightly sighed a bit, I knew that it would be large to explain so- "Meh, I'll explain this to you you later its pretty, PRETTY complicated and extensive; but anyway, want to watch the twolegs with us?" he gave me an unsure look on his face, turned around to the party, and then with a kind look, he agreed to the proposal. "I think it would be an interesting and maybe funny to see it but…I don't know twoleg." He dropped his head ashamed. "Look," I patted my paw at his shoulder with encouragement, "there is no reason to be embarrassed about. I can translate if you want." He looked at me with enthusiastic eyes as we continued watching the twolegs and they continued the festivities.


Emberfox: Hey you guys! I'm back from Walmart, and I got a LOT of stuff from there.
