"Hello?" I called into the den. "Jayfeather?"
He suddenly appeared, making me start. "Heathertail?" he asked, confused. "What are you doing in ThunderClan?"
"Erm... it's a long story," I mumble. He nods.
"I'm sure I will hear later. Now, for your stiff bones..."
"How did you know?" I gasp. It never ceases to impress me when Jayfeather seems to read minds and just... know.
"I can sense your stiffness." he replied, and disappeared into the medicine cat den.
He reappeared a few moments later, holding something in his mouth.
"Here. This should help." he said.
"Thanks," I mewed gratefully, as the stiffness eased.
"Heathertail!" called Lionblaze.
"Ahhh. I think I know what this is about, now." Jayfeather said knowingly. I gave my fur a couple of embarrassed licks, and hurriedly said goodbye.
"Now for your tour," Lionblaze announced.
"This is - obviously - the medicine cat den. Over there is the elders, and that thick bramble thicket is the nursery." he explained, pointing to each one with a paw. "The warriors den... the apprentices.... and the den on top of Highrock is Firestar's den."
I took it all in in a daze. So different from WindClan... we only had dens for Barkface and Kestrelpaw, and the nursery and elders. The rest of us slept outside.
"It's very busy," I said. Somehow, the WindClan camp seemed so much quieter.
Suddenly, a yowl came from the elders den. "Where's my fresh-kill?"
"That will be Mousefur," Lionblaze said. Three kits tottered up to us.
"Who are you?" the biggest asked boldy.
"Bumblekit!" scolded a silver tabby she-cat, hurrying over. "Don't be so rude!"
"Hello, Millie," I said politely. Millie purred at me.
"Come on," said Lionblaze. "Shall I show you our territory now?"
"I though Firestar said show her the camp," came a disdainful voice. "Not our whole territory. If she goes back to WindClan, they'll know every pawstep of ThunderClan!"
"Go away, Berrynose," growled Lionblaze.
I drew myself up. "I would never do that to ThunderClan!" I hissed.
Berrynose snorted and turned his back.
"Sorry you had to meet that piece of foxdung," apologised Lionblaze.
"That's alright," I answered.
"I will show you our territory. Let's go." he said firmly, and lead the way out of camp.
