Here is chapter 7 :D enjoy everybody and thanks for the super duper amazing reviews you guys are like totally the best :P
Shimmerpaw leapt to her paws in shock, as Minkstripe easily held Heathersong down, one forepaw on her stomach the other on her throat. Yowls erupted from the cats around her, spitting furious cats calling to chase Heathersong from the territory. Heathersong glared up at Minkstripe, her eyes blazing furiously.
Amberstar looked down at Heathersong and as the tabby queen struggled under Minkstripe's grasp, her amber eyes softened.
"What are you waiting for?" and angry voice snarled. Shimmerpaw bristled recognizing the voice belonging to Sunpaw. The sandy gray tom stepped forward so every cat could hear him. Shadowpaw watched him, her fur fluffed out and her eyes all moony. Shimmerpaw growled digging her claws into the ground she should be concentrating on her training and becoming a great warrior, not padding after Sunpaw!
"She was banished from her clan for killing kits" he spat, as he spoke a shudder passed through the clan, as if they were hearing the news for the first time again. The shock still fresh and new, no cat could imagine what kind of creature would kill helpless kits. Sunpaw glared at Heathersong with his glinting yellow eyes and he pointed towards the nursery with his forepaw "Would you endanger our kits?" he demanded.
Whitefog quickly turned her dark amber gaze toward the nursery, spotting a curious Spiderkit poking his head out to see what was going on. The white queen cast a narrowed glance at Heathersong before darting to the nursery, picking up Spiderkit by the scruff and disappearing into the den.
Amberstar watched the fearful queen vanish into the nursery curiously. She looked down at Heathersong for a moment before turning her gaze to look at her clan, lying down from exhaustion.
Suddenly she turned a hard stare on Sunpaw, her tabby pelt fluffed out "Sunpaw" she began "I appreciate your loyalty and desire to protect your clanmates, these qualities with make you a great warrior one day"
Sunpaw beamed with pride at his leader's praise, his sandy pelt fluffed out in pride and his eyes closed, relishing in her praise.
"But" she continued, her amber eyes hard as she looked down on the apprentice evenly, "Every cat must learn that there is more to every story than you think. And only when you master this quality will you be able to become a warrior"
Sunpaw scuffed his forepaw on the ground as he was scolded. Amberstar turned back to face the clan "Until we know the truth she will not be treated like a murderer". Yowls of protest and concern erupted. Minkstripe stepped back allowing Heathersong to stand to her paws.
"Are you sure about this Amberstar?" he asked cautiously, "Your kits are due any day now and if what Shadowclan says about her is true then aren't you concerned for your kits?"
Amberstar opened her mouth to speak, but was interrupted by Heathersong, the pale tabby leapt to her paws "Shadowclan is lying, I didn't kill anyone". Amberstar nodded "We will keep you here" Heathersong opened her mouth to protest but Amberstar silenced her "You will be kept here for your own protection". This seemed to silence Heathersong.
Minkstripe snorted angrily, Amberstar turned to look at him with a hard stare "Well if you have a problem with that then I'm sure you won't mind keeping guard". She heaved herself to her paws "Duskheart and Minkstripe will you please escort Heathersong to the bramble hedge beside the medicine den, keep one cat on guard at all times" the large black tom nodded padding over to Heathersong.
Amberstar turned to look at Sunpaw "And you Sunpaw will be taking care of Heathersong until I say you may stop"
Sunpaw growled stalking towards the apprentices den, Shadowpaw cast a glance back at Amberstar, her eyes cold before following him. Suddenly Amberstar yowled loudly; Icedapple was quickly at her side leading her to the nursery, "Move out of the way" she snapped "The kits are coming".
Some of the clan waited anxiously outside their dens, others went to bed. Sunpaw sat outside the apprentices den sharing tongues with Shadowpaw, their tail twined.
Bluecloud slid next to Shimmerpaw "He really has your sister wrapped around his tail" he purred. Shimmerpaw growled "She is ridiculous, padding after a tom so quickly, doesn't she want to be a warrior?"
Bluecloud turned a soft blue gaze on her "Sometimes all a she-cat wants is to be a queen while others don't ever want to have kits, just as some toms were meant to be fathers while others were not" he couldn't help but cast a glance towards Gorsefur. Shimmerpaw looked at him carefully "Which are you?" Bluecloud gave her an amused purr, and rasped his tongue over her ears "Only starclan knows, come on, Amberstar will probably be kitting through the night, we can go see the kits in the morning" he yawned loudly rasping his tongue a crossed her muzzle before heading into the warriors den.
Shimmerpaw flicked her ears as her pelt tingled, she watched her mentor disappear into the warriors den and felt her heart beat faster. Shaking away the feelings she headed quickly into the apprentices den, ignoring both Sunpaw and Shadowpaw.
Dropping down into her nest sleepily she closed her eyes, she woke up in a starry clearing. A golden tom stood in front of her watching her with glinting eyes.
"Hello Shimmerpaw" the tom purred "I am Lionstorm, your grandfather. I am here to warn you beware the son of morning and night, shadows can only contain the weed and only the moon can truly destroy it"
Shimmerpaw stared at him "I don't understand, what do you mean? Do you know where my mother is?"
Lionstorm nodded "Starclan has called her to find the moon and bring it back to the clan" Shimmerpaw dug her claws into the ground in frustration "What do you mean she went to find the moon, the moon is in the sky you can't go and find it and bring it anywhere"
Lionstorm flexed his muscles "Don't worry about what Leopardlight is doing, she is fulfilling her part in the prophecy but you have an important role as well. You need to find the weed, protect your clan from it"
The golden tom began to disappear and as he did he was replaced by dead cats, lying in pools of blood, all of their eyes were open and their jaws wrenched as if they had died in the light of battle. As Shimmerpaw looked among the dead cats she began to recognize them as her clanmates, as her eyes settled on a young blue tom with white paws and a sliced throat she felt her heart jump into her throat. Bluecloud!
