"Fire! Get the kits help the elders!" Screeched foxtail "stardust get your kits cloudtail get sunpaw midnight get out hurry!" hawkstar yelped at the cats. "I- I cant move! I'm trapped!" Sunpaw yelped. "Sunpaw! Look there's a hole right here, try to get out." Cloudtail meowed painfully. Sunpaw tried to creep out but her tail caught on fire! She dropped painfully as the fire spread from her tail to her whiskers. "Sunpaw No!" stormpaw yelped painfully as she saw her friend catch on fire. Cloudtail tried to drag the young apprentice but she was stuck in between two branches of the tree that fell across the apprentices den entrance. "Hawkstar She's stuck we have to leave her here there is no way she would be able to live!" Cloudtail shouted at her leader. "We can't just leave her here!" Stormpaw argued. "We have to! Or else we all will die!" Hawkstar said looking down at his kin. "Stormpaw look out!" Wildfire shouted as he tackled stormpaw to the side, and at that moment a large tree fell down where Stormpaw was standing. "Stormpaw! Wildfire! Cloudtail! Get out of camp I'll get the rest of the kits! Tell the clan to head near the oak! GO!" Hawkstar yelped. "I can't! My leg!" Stormpaw screeched. Wildfire quickly noticed a spark of fire had landed on her left hind leg. Wildfire quickly reacted; he picked up his friend and ran out of camp with Cloudtail right behind them. "Hawkstar told me to start heading near the oak, he's getting the other kits! Lets go" Wildfire yelped as he exited the camp. "Put me down" stormpaw hissed "I'm fine the spark didn't do anything" she glared up at wildfire "I'm not putting you down you'll just run back to camp and try to help" wildfire meowed "so I'm want to help my clan now put me down now!" stormpaw meowed loudly the other cats stopped and looked at wildfire "fine" he glared at stormpaw angrily "just trying to help" he growled "well I don't need your help!" stormpaw hissed but regretted saying it right away wildfire nodded and walked away she watched him go and walked slowly to the oak "hey you ok?" asked snowpaw walking up to stormpaw "can I pleas be alone right now?" stormpaw mewed "no because then you would be all alone in the back" snowpaw meowed he laughed quietly "pleas?" stormpaw looked at him sadly "ok fine but just ask me if you need company" snowpaw meowed. She nodded, when snowpaw diapered in the clan cats stormpaw. turned around and raced back to the camp she herd a yowl and started to run even faster "no this is my home not even fire will destroy it" she screeched through the flames falling down when she reached the camp she saw a horrible sight hawkstar lying on the ground wounded "hawkstar!" stormpaw cried and raced over to her father he looked up and looked saw stormpaw and mouthed "help" stormpaw grad her father neck and started pulling away "have you lost a life?" stormpaw asked "yes but I need you to leave" hawkstar meowed "no I'm not leaving you here you need to lead our clan" stormpaw hissed hawkstar closed his eyes but stormpaw kept pulling "three" hawkstar meowed when they were out of the camp "what?" stormpaw asked "only three lives left" hawkstar meowed "lets not talk about this we need to get you to dapplepool" stormpaw grunted the rest of the way their was quiet "were is stormpaw" screeched snowpaw I… I don't know" stormpaw looked through the bushes they were in to see it to see it was wildfire "snowpaw ran forward and tackled wildfire "if she dies it your fault" snowpaw hissed "she wont she's as strong cat… but if she does ill never forgive myself" wildfire meowed hawkstar laughed a quiet laugh "those toms" stormpaw looked at her father and smiled she grabbed his neck again and pulled him out of the bush "stormpaw" cried owlfur "hawkstar" cried cloudtail the clan gathered around the two cats "were is dapplepool?" mowed stormpaw. Dapplepool ran over and started healing hawkstar wounds. Stormpaw yawned and laid down a fox length from her father so dapplepool had room to treat his wounds "stormpaw!" growled wildfire "yes what is it now?" stormpaw asked bitterly .wildfire shook his head and meowed "I told you not to go you could have gotten killed", stormpaw bristled with anger "last time I checked you weren't the boss of everything and I didn't have to what you say". "But I care about you safety" wildfire meowed "we'll maybe that's the problem I can handle myself!" Stormpaw hissed "fine then I guesses you can do with out me in your life" wildfire hissed back "just go" cried stormpaw trying not to cry. Wildfire turned around and padded away stormpaw looked around to see the clan looking at her hawkstar's eyes glared at her with sadness stormpaw lied back down and rested her head one her paws the cats still looking at her "stop looking at me" she cried as she sprung back up the cats didn't stop "storm-"stardust tried to say but was cut off "no stop just stop!" strompaw yelled ting around at her clan mates "stormpaw pleas" meowed midnight. Stormpaw didn't, she meowed "stop it stop it just Stop!" she said and ran into the woods not stopping she ran swiftly through the woods not stopping even for air she didn't no were she was going until she collided with something "watch it kit" mowed the familiar voice "sorry" stormpaw mowed "oh its you" the cat meowed it was the black and gray cat she ran into at the gathering "why are you in rainclan territory kit?" she mowed "I'm not a kit and I'm not in the mood to answer that plus I'm only on the borer what's it matter" strompaw meowed "what's your name kit" she meowed "stormpaw you?" , "lostpaw now get out of rainclan" as she swiped stormpaw ear and cut a small piece off "teach you to trespass stormpaw didn't want to star another fight so she turned around and padded back to the oak "stormpaw" cried snowpaw as she walked into the clearing round the oak she ignored snowpaw and went over to hawkstar "sorry" stormpaw mumbled "what happened to your ear" hawkstar asked " I ran into a rainclan cat" stormpaw meowed "well let dapplepool check your ear out" hawkstar mowed "fine" stormpaw sighed

The night was cold she wanted to be in a nice warm den next to her best friends she looked up to see all the cats spread out among the clearing she looked around to see snowpaw asleep and wildfire across the clearing and all the cats far away from stormpaw she looked around once again to find leopardnose on the oak she ran over and climbed on the tree "why are you up?" leopardnose asked "cant sleep you" "same"" it was silent "you no you saved hawkstar today" leopardnose meowed "I never thought about it that away but I did what any cat would have done" stormpaw confessed "I saw what happened to you and wildfire" leopardnose mewed "so what were not friends anymore" strompaw meowed coldly "what about snowpaw?" leopardnose mewed "what about him I'm think were still friends…"

Strompaw mowed sadly "go get some rest we won't be training for a why'll but you still need to save you energy for tomorrow maybe the fire will be out" "yeah maybe.
