Chapter 10
Sometime during the night Stream padded into the den she shook Angel and whispered softly, "Angel wake up dear we need to talk." Angel rubbed her paw over her eyes and then sat up and stretched. "Yes Mother?"
Stream turned to the entrant of the den and meowed, "Come in." in came Brick, Whisker, and Rose. They came over and sat down around Angel. She looked at them in confusion. "What's going on?" she asked, tilting her head to the side.
Brick was the first to speak, "Remember earlier when I told you I would speak with Stream?" Angel nodded, Brick then continued. "Well I did and we decided to get Rose and Whisker as well."
Rose looked at Angel her eyes shining with happiness, "Brick won't tell us who the lucky tom is! Who is he is he a cat in the ally or one of the ones that live around here?"
Angel lowered her head, "He's in the ally at the moment, but he normally lives on the outside of our territory..." Rose was confused. "Why so sad, does he not love you back?"
Stream was looking at Angel and she knew who the tom was, "He's the prisoner, isn't he?" Angel looked at her mother sadness clear in her eyes, she nodded her head.
Whisker looked at her, then she padded over to the young she-cat and meowed. "Then how about we get Scourge to let the tom stay?" Angel looked at her, "But how?" "Hmm...I'll think of something. But tomorrow when Scourge is deciding what to do with him we should try and keep it away from death."
The she-cats all nodded in agreement. Rose turn to Angel and meowed, "If you want dear I'll try and go check on him, which is if Ice and Snake don't stop me." Angel looked at her, and meowed. "Tell them I said you could deal with his injuries." Rose nodded and padded off to where the tom was being held.
Angel came out and watched as Rose spoke to the two toms they looked in her direction and she nodded and then they let her pass. Angel walked back into her den and fell back to sleep dreaming of the brown blue eyed tom across the ally.
