*HELLO ALL. GUESS WHO HAS DECIDED TO ADD MORE. Sorry I almost forgot! But here's more of it so Enjoy!*

The clan was going crazy.

"Adderstrike is back!"

"Who is Fallen Leaves?"

"How is Adderstrike alive?"

"QUIET!" hissed Fallen Leaves. The cats cries died down.

"Thank you." Fallen Leaves mewed. He nodded to Leafpool.

"We must go find this clan. They have been in the area forever, stronger than SkyClan. They fail to follow the warrior code. I was chosen to teach them everything. Adderstrike, Fallen Leaves, Spiderleg, and my kits are to go with me. I really am not sure what else to say to you all..." Leafpool mewed. Squirrelflight, Ashfur, Amberstorm, Echowish and Heatherfern and her kits Shimmerkit and Eaglekit bounded up.

"Adderstrike!" Ashfur nuzzled his son. Then Adderstrike greeted his mother and siblings. Heatherfern stared at him.

"You... you were dead." she whispered.

"But now I'm back." he replied. Adderstrike went to nuzzle Heatherfern but she backed away, fear in her eyes. She shoved her kits ahead of her.

"T-these are our kits Eaglekit and Shimmerkit..." she stammered.

"Mom!" Eaglekit scrambled back behind his mother. "I don't wanna talk to this ghost. I don't know him." he whispered. But Leafpool still heard him. She felt a pang of sadness for her former apprentice. His kits didn't even know him. Adderstrike must have heard too, because he flinched. Shimmerkit stood still, gawking up at her father.

"Y-you're o-our dad?" her voice shook with fear.

"Yes. I'm sorry I wasn't there for you. But I am now." Adderstrike leaned down to touch Shimmerkit's head with his muzzle but she scampered away with her brother. Adderstrike turned his head away sadly.

"Can we just go?" he choked out. Leafpool nodded, then motioned to her kits. Fernpelt, Hollysong, and Larchbreeze stared at her like Adderstrike's kits had stared at him. What was going on with them? Stormheart stared at Adderstrike, her former mentor. Dustcloud was the first to step up.

"I'm ready." he mewed. Leafpool gave a weak smile. At least one of her kits would go. Stormheart joined her brother.

"Me, too." she meowed.

"I guess I'll go, too." Larchbreeze sighed. Leafpool and Spiderleg looked at their other two daughters.

"Hollysong? Fernpelt...?" Leafpool asked.

"Are you coming?" Spiderleg asked.

Fernpelt shook her head.

"I can't father, mother."

"Why not, Fernpelt?" Leafpool asked.

"I just can't!" she cried and raced off.

"Hollysong?" Spiderleg frowned. Hollysong shook her head as well.

"I can't either. Please don't ask why. Just respect our wishes." she mewed, before running after her sister. The clan was now dead silent. But then Brackenstar spoke.

"I'm sorry for not listening to you Leafpool. But now I am not sure what to say... Good luck on your journey I suppose." he meowed.

Squirrelflight padded over to Leafpool and nuzzled her.

"I love you sis. No matter what happens out there. I'll watch over Fernpelt and Hollysong to make sure they are OK. You watch over my son." Squirrelflight whispered to her.

"I will. We will be fine. I promise. Thank you."

Leafpool motioned for Adderstrike, Fallen Leaves, Spiderleg, and her three kits that were coming to follow her. They went to the medicine cat den. Jayfeather and Echowish greeted them.

"So you really are leaving?" Echowish sighed. Larchbreeze nodded. Echowish began bustling around for traveling herbs. Jayfeather, despite being blind, stared in the direction of Leafpool as if staring at her.

"Mother..." he stepped forward and buried his face in her fur. This surprised her, for Jayfeather was never loving towards her.

"Ssh, Jayfeather... what is it?" He shook his head, still in her fur. She used her tail to stroke her older son's back. Lionblaze burst in, just returning from dusk patrol.

"It's true?" he cried. He joined his brother in burying his face in his mother's fur. This also surprised her a lot.

"Get her back mother." Jayfeather sniffled.

"You know?"

"I'm medicine cat. I know it all. And perhaps more than you and more than I should." he replied. Lionblaze nodded.

"I know all he told me. I knew she was still out there." Lionblaze turned to Fallen Leaves. "And you knew. You got her pregnant and left her!" he spat and leaped at him.

Fallen Leaves let out a cry of surprise.

"LIONBLAZE!" Leafpool yelled. "STOP!"

Spiderleg had to tear the golden tabby off the scrawny ginger and white tomcat.

"I loved her! But I had no choice!" Fallen Leaves hissed, licking down his rumpled fur.

"No choice?" Lionblaze growled.

"I WAS DEAD! When I escaped from the tunnels with her I had to go with StarClan and the Tribe Of Endless Hunting." he explained. Lionblaze breathed heavily but was calming down, bristled fur lying flat.

"Fine. Just get her back." Lionblaze told him. And with that he stalked out.

LET THE JOURNEY BEGIN!

After sad goodbyes the group of seven cats headed out. And they'd been traveling for a quarter-moon with no luck.

"THIS IS AS USELESS AS A DEAD FOX!" Larchbreeze hissed one day.

"We just haven't found their trail! We will soon. Don't worry." Dustcloud told her.

"And hedgehogs will fly! I'm going to go hunt." Larchbreeze bounded off.

"I guess we are stopping for a rest then." Adderstrike sighed.

"Who made dirt in her fresh kill?" Dustcloud grumbled.

"Everyone's just very tense. This is going very slow. It'll get better." Stormheart assured her brother. Then she went to settled down by Adderstrike. Dustcloud huffed over to where his parents and Fallen Leaves were settled in the shade.

"I wish this was easier." he complained.

"We all do Dustcloud." mewed Spiderleg. "But we just have to keep going."

"Why did Larchbreeze have to come anyways?" Everyone knew this was a rhetorical question. But it got Leafpool wondering. Why hadn't Fernpelt and Hollysong come? Was what she continued to question herself.

"LEAFPOOL! SPIDERLEG! DUSTCLOUD!" Larchbreeze came running, mouse in her jaw.

"Larchbreeze!" Leafpool shot up. "What-" She stopped when she saw a group of cats chasing her daughter. Larchbreeze skidded to a stop beside her. The lead cat did the same. Her mouth fell open, familiar green eyes wide.

"Mother?"

*Sorry if it was short! More to come hopefully sooner!*
