Sedgefoot's pov
Sedgefoot opened her eyes. She was in the StarClan forest. Firestar padded up to Sedgefoot, fear in his eyes.
"Sedgefoot," Firestar murmured. "You didn't listen to us before."
Sedgefoot shut her eyes. She knew what was coming next.
"Frostclaw is a bad cat but you had to do it," the blue-gray she-cat stalked out from the bush behind Firestar.
"Do what?" Sedgefoot sneered.
The blue-gray she-cat was taken aback by Sedgefoot's tone. "You had to join RiverClan with that horrible cat!"
Sedgefoot's eyes blazed and she leaped at her. The two cats rolled around on the floor. Sedgefoot ended up on top of the she-cat and she hissed, "you don't know anything about him."
"I know he is a bad cat!" The she-cat muttered. Sedgefoot sliced at the she-cat face and shifted her paw on her throat cutting off oxygen.
Firestar threw Sedgefoot off and the she-cat fell to the ground, gasping for air.
"Are you alright, Bluestar?" Firestar asked.
Bluestar stood up and shook her pelt. "I'm fine."
Sedgefoot looked at the scratch marks on Bluestar then she looked at her paws. What am I doing? "I-I am so sorry."
Bluestar shook her head and everything swirled around Sedgefoot and she woke up in her nest. "What have I done?" Sedgefoot asked herself. You know exactly what you have done. Bluestar's voice echoed in my thoughts. You put you and the ones you care about in danger for loving that cat! Sedgefoot looked at her paws. I'm sorry!
Rowanclaw's pov
Why? Why did we fight? Why did Sedgefoot fall in love with a RiverClan cat? Why did she leave? She could be in RiverClan or lost in the forest, alone. She shuddered at the thought. Robinwing was eating a vole next to Icewhisker obviously not caring that Sedgefoot has been gone for days. Rowanclaw shook her head. It was half-moon today not another half-moon until the gathering where she would see if Sedgefoot was safe.
Rowanclaw padded outside of camp with her apprentice, Sunpaw.
Sunpaw bounced up and down cheerfully like always. "So what are we doing today?"
"I was just thinking we could go check the scent markers," Rowanclaw yawned. She has been staying up until moon-high for any signs of her sister.
"But we have been checking scent markers for days," Sunpaw complained.
"Well looks like you are doing it again!" Rowanclaw snapped.
Sunpaw slightly backed away from Rowanclaw. "Can we at least have Waterpaw or Bushpaw come with us?" Sunpaw murmured.
"No," Rowanclaw growled softly.
Sunpaw's head drooped and her tail dragged behind her as the two cats headed to the RiverClan border.
Echosong's pov
Echosong slumped beside the Moonpool and dipped her muzzle into the shimmering water. She woke up in StarClan. Bluestar sat in front of her. Firestar was at Bluestar's side followed by Ashfur, Lionheart and Hollyleaf.
"Echosong watch out," Firestar meowed.
"For what?" Echosong asked.
Bluestar ignored her question. "Something terrible is coming. Something you can't change. It is your destiny."
Claws scratched her on her side. She spun around but no one was there. More claws scraped against her skin. She yelped. All she felt was pain and terror. She fell to the ground with claws marks all over her.
Bluestar hovered above her chanting the same chant as her previous dream. "The end is near."
Sedgefoot's pov (Half-moon later)
Sedgefoot padded into the medicine cats den. "Heathersong."
"Heathersong's not here. She went to collect tansy." Mistycloud said who was sorting herbs in the back of the den. "What do you need?"
"I'll wait until Heathersong gets back," Sedgefoot started walking out of the cave.
"No! I can help you!" Mistycloud yelled.
Sedgefoot turned back around and padded back up to her. "Okay, my belly hurts like when I'm running and swimming."
Mistycloud put pressure on Sedgefoot's belly and Sedgefoot yelped. Mistycloud smiled. "You are pregnant!"
Sedgefoot stared at her belly, fear running through her body like a wave at the sun-drown-place. She has never been there before but many cats talk about. "Frostclaw's?"
"Of course! Who's else would it be?" Mistycloud narrowed her eyes.
Sedgefoot couldn't believe her ears. "When are they due?"
"About another two moons," Mistycloud meowed.
Sedgefoot nodded and left the den. She raced to Frostclaw and nuzzled him. "I am pregnant."
"What?" Frostclaw looked at Sedgefoot, unbelieving.
Sedgefoot nodded, happily. She would have kits! She always wanted to be a mother but she never knew anyone would actually like her. She looked up into Frostclaw's eyes, his handsome eyes.
"Wow! This is amazing!" Frostclaw meowed.
"It's the gathering tonight," Sedgefoot said, changing the subject.
"Yes?" Frostclaw meowed.
"I want to go! I want to see Rowanclaw! She is probably worried." Sedgefoot said.
"No! You are pregnant, you can't go!" Frostclaw said.
"You are overprotective!" Sedgefoot said.
"Go to the nursery and make your den," Frostclaw meowed.
Sedgefoot swished her tail. I really want to see my sister! She padded to the Moss Tree and stripped off a moss ball. She picked up the moss ball and padded to the nursery. She laid it in a empty space in the nursery and she picked out all the twigs and thorns and lay down in her nest. Bluecloud sat in the corner of the nursery snuggling Skykit, Snowkit and Bubblekit.
"Hey?" Bluecloud narrowed her eyes and pushed her kits closer to her belly. "What are you doing here?"
"Mistycloud just told me that I was pregnant!" Sedgefoot smiled.
"Oh," Bluecloud closed her eyes again and she lay her chin on her kits.
"She means oh, that's great! Right Bluecloud," Dappledleaf meowed.
"Right," Bluecloud murmured.
Sedgefoot rolled her eyes. She knew she would never be liked like a normal cat. She was an outcast with a disability at ThunderClan and she is an outcast from another clan here. She lay in her nest and fell asleep.
Rowanclaw's pov
Rowanclaw raced to Aspenstar's den. "Aspenstar!"
"Yes, Rowanclaw?" Aspenstar meowed.
"I need to go to the gathering!" Rowanclaw demanded.
"Why?"
"My sister might be there!" Rowanclaw blinked.
Aspenstar snorted. "That pathetic cat! I don't think any clan would let her in."
Rowanclaw stared at her leader like he didn't just say that. "What did you say?"
"You can come to the gathering," Aspenstar nodded his head and left his den.
Rowanclaw was about to follow him when she paused. Does everyone here not care about Sedgefoot? She stared around. No search parties or worried glances from anyone. Maybe she'll be better off as a loner or a RiverClan cat. Rowanclaw slumped down with her tail dragging behind her. She padded to the fresh-kill pile and picked a vole. She ate in the corner away from everyone else. What if I will never see Sedgefoot again? The thought crept up into her mind and she started having memories of Sedgefoot when she was a kit.
Sedgekit stalked towards the dead mouse. She pushed with her hind legs and pounced, missing by a tail-length. Yellowpaw came and took the mouse away from Sedgekit before she could pounce again.
"Yellowpaw!" She cried.
"The warrior code states that no piece of prey should be played with. Give thanks to StarClan for the meal." Yellowpaw hissed and padded away. He threw the mouse back onto the fresh-kill pile.
Sedgekit turned back to Rowankit. "We can't let him stop us!"
Rowankit rolled her eyes and ran up to her. They sneaked up to the fresh-kill pile and grabbed the mouse again. Sedgekit started tackling it again and Yellowpaw came back.
"What did I tell you!?" Yellowpaw hissed.
Sedgekit giggled. "That you wanted more paws?" Rowankit giggled with Sedgekit.
Yellowpaw glared at Sedgekit then glared at Rowankit. "I can talk with Crowstar and make it so you guys get your apprentice ceremony scooted back a bit."
"No!" Sedgekit cried.
"It was all her," Rowankit blamed her sister.
Sedgekit giggled.
"Fine but don't do it again!" Yellowpaw stalked off (again) and placed the mouse on the fresh-kill pile (again).
Rowanclaw compared her sister to then and now. Back then, she would mess around, get in trouble and never give up. Now she seems dull like she has gave up. She just sits there while everyone makes fun of her behind her back. Rowanclaw shook her head and padded to the line that was going to the gathering. Aspenstar was in front of the line and he signaled his tail for us to leave. We started walking to the island. Oh Sedgefoot, please be there!
