"Hollyleaf..." Leafpool murmured.

"This is Hollyleaf? My... our half sister?" Larchbreeze questioned, peeking out of where she'd been hiding behind Dustcloud.

"Yes." Leafpool meowed.

"Half sister?" Hollyleaf tilted her head to one side, eyes drifting from her mother to Spiderleg and Adderstrike and her half siblings. When her eyes fell on Fallen Leaves she raced at him.

"Fallen Leaves!"

"Hollyleaf..." he nuzzled her.

"Y-you're alive." she whispered, burying her head in his chest.

"Yes... I am." A dark gray-and-white she-cat stepped forward.

"Mother... this is our father?" she asked. A ginger and white tom stood next to the she-cat.

"It looks like we all have stories to tell." Spiderleg meowed. Hollyleaf nodded.

"Yes. Come, we'll bring you to our camp."

"Mother... I don't think Dark will be happy with us if we bring a large group of outsiders in." the she-cat meowed. The tom next to her stretched forward apprehensively to sniff Dustcloud. Then he made a face.

"Clan cats at that." he spat.

"These clan cats are your family!" Hollyleaf growled, looking at the young tom.

"Wait. These are the cats Dark made us fight moons ago." the she-cat meowed. A white she-cat stared at Spiderleg.

"You're right Jay. I remember fighting this one." she meowed. Spiderleg stiffened uncomfortably.

"Calm down. That was in the past." the white she-cat told him.

"You tried stealing our clan's kits." he bristled.

"Oh relax kittypet."

"Stop it Cloud!" Hollyleaf exclaimed.

"I am no kittypet!" Spiderleg pinned her down and hissed in her face.

"Spiderleg!" Adderstrike pulled the tom off of Cloud. Leafpool tried to calm her mate.

"Learn to take a joke." Cloud started walking away.

"Cloud stop." Hollyleaf sighed as the she-cat continued on, then turned to Leafpool. "What are you doing here?"

"We are here to help you." Leafpool replied.

"Help us? What makes you think we need help?" the tom asked.

"I'm supposed to teach you the ways of the clan." Leafpool meowed.

"Dark won't want that."

"I don't care what Dark wants!" Hollyleaf hissed.

"He's our leader."

"He's not a very good leader." Dustcloud's words came out before he could stop them.

"Don't insult our leader." the tom yowled, throwing himself at Dustcloud. The two tussled on the ground.

"Blaze!" Hollyleaf yelled. She and Leafpool pulled two toms apart and Jay stepped in between them.

"Fighting is not going to fix anything." Jay mewed.

"You do not fight family." Hollyleaf told Blaze.

"They aren't our family. Dark and everyone back at the camp is our family." Blaze growled, sitting down.

"Why are you so supportive of Dark?" Jay asked her brother.

"He was there when we needed him." Blaze responded.

"He KILLED our brother!" Jay shouted.

"DON'T SAY THAT!" Blaze snapped, then began licking a minor wound on his shoulder.

"It's true Blaze... you know Ash's death was not an accident as well as Mom and I do." Jay said sadly.

"Ash's death was not Dark's fault... it was mine."

"Stop telling yourself that. Dark was Ash's teacher. He was trying to kill Ash. He told him to try and catch that snake. Dark knew that snake was poisonous." Jay mewed. Fallen Leaves looked at Hollyleaf.

"We had three children?" Fallen Leaves asked.

"Yes. Blaze, Jay, and Ash. When they were learning to fight, our leader Dark was taking Ash out to teach him hunting. Dark was like a mentor to Ash. He told Ash to catch a poisonous snake. Ash didn't know it was poisonous and Dark did not tell him. The snake bit him and Dark brought Ash back to camp. Fawn, our healer, tried all she could, but Ash passed away." Hollyleaf explained.

"He was murdered. Before he died Ash told me that when Dark found him he said: 'You're siblings are next.' Dark is going to try and kill Blaze and I!" Jay mewed, fear in her voice.

"Dark wouldn't do that!" Blaze hissed.

"Blaze I don't understand why you have so much faith in him! He's a killer!"

"Jay please." Hollyleaf tried to calm her daughter.

"No mother. Blaze is wrong. I don't want to sit around anymore. This is a sign from Star Clan... the ancestors you used to tell Ash, Blaze, and I about. These cats can save us!"

"Hollyleaf. What is going on?" A brown tabby tom came from the brush, Cloud and several other cats at his tail. Cloud sneered at Leafpool and the rest of her group. Hollyleaf looked at the tom.

"Just talking Rock."

"Talking with clan cats? You may have been from a clan in the past, but they pushed you out. You're with us now." Rock told her.

"I know..."

"No more speaking with clan cats. You are a part of us." Rock continued.

"Rock. These cats are here to assist us." Jay looked at the older tom. He had a deputy aura coming from him. Leafpool felt like he was Dark's second in command. The tabby looked at Jay.

"Assist us?"

"Rock... you know Dark has changed. We are in danger... all of us." Jay tried to tell him.

"Dark saved all of us. He took your mother in. I would show him more respect if I were you."

"Yes Rock." Jay bowed her head.

"Now Hollyleaf. Make your decision. All three of you. Go back to the ones who sent you away, or stay were you are wanted. With your family..." Rock meowed. Hollyleaf looked at Fallen Leaves.

"They are my family." Hollyleaf replied, padding over to Fallen Leaves. Jay stood in the middle for only one more second.

"I'm staying with my mother." she meowed. Blaze stayed between both groups, eyes going back and forth. Finally he walked over to side with Rock, Cloud, and the rest of the rogue cats.

"Blaze?" Jay mewed quietly. Blaze wouldn't look at his sister or his mother.

"Very well. You've made your choices. Now you have thirty seconds get off my territory before we rip you to shreds." Rock said defensively. Leafpool knew there was no point in arguing, so she pushed Spiderleg. The group of Thunder Clan cats raced away.
