"River gang, meet Heart of Distant Eagle, her to-be, Leaves that glow in Shadows, and Wolf the Howls to Moon."
Moss pointed to each in turn.
"Heart, Wolf, Leaf, meet Rowan, Kestrel, Willow, Night, and Haze of River gang."
Leafs eyes widened in amazement.
"Wow, Moss actually did it."
Heart whipped around to face leaf.
"Of course he did it, go back and tell Stoneteller our, guests, have arrived."
Leaf, mounted on a small gray horse, took off back down the trail. Heart turned to face the rest of the group.
"Moss, brother, you missed so much in the past few days."
"Have I really?"
This time, Wolf spoke in a deep smooth voice.
"You have. Mouse became a full prey-hunter, Stone announced her and Fawn are together. Hare also delivered. She and her child are healthy."
Heart already turned her horse around.
"Come on, we can talk back home. Let's get a move on."
The group followed Wolf back down the trail. Willow once again complained about being tired, thankfully, Wolf offered to let her ride with him on his horse. Haze and Heart brought up the rear.
"So, what is your position in the gang, I mean like what do you do?"
"Well, being deputy means that I'm our leader, Timber's, second in command. I organize patrols, make important decisions for the gang, and stand in for him if he is sick or hurt. Also, if, Star gang forbid, something bad was to happen to Timber, where he can no longer lead, I become leader."
"Wow, I'm also next in line for leader, but that's it."
We walked in silence the rest of the way back. I could tell Heart was up to something. The look on her face when Wolf brought up Hare's child, I don't know. There is something wrong with her in the head.
Sorry this chapter is so short guys! I really needed another chapter before I leave tomorrow.
Anways, May Starclan light your path!
