Suntalon: OMG THANKS! I got sooooo many options for cats THANK YOU! Well this little (not so little) chapter is dedicated to Eclipse the Dragon, for giving me the idea about Russetfur! If you already gave me ideas I am working on writing them out as a story, so don't worry!
Rust or Russet
Russetfur watched from above as Rowanclaw was named the new deputy of Shadowclan. With a sigh she padded off into the depths of Starclan.
Russetfur woke up and stretched. Her muscles were cramped and stiff. She knew that she would soon move to the elders den, and give up her position as deputy. Russetfur padded over to the medicine cat's den, and walked in. Littlecloud had already laid out her herbs. She finished them off with one bite. "Russetfur how long is this going to go on?" asked the meek voice of Littlecloud. Pretending to not know what he was talking about Russetfur mewed "I don't know what you mean." Littlecloud hissed and said "You are too headstrong for your own good. You know exactly what I am talking about, when will you retire!" with a sigh of defeat Russetfur mewed "Just one more battle to prove my loyalty to Shadowclan. "No one would accuse you other wise Russetfur." Without waiting to here another word of it Russetfur padded out of the den, and into the sun. The patrols had already left. Russetfur ordered off one more border patrol, and then turned around to get some prey when…
"Hurry Thunderclan is attacking" the cry of Snowbird rung around the clearing. Russetfur called to Tawnypelt, Tigerheart, Toadstep, Dawnpelt, and Applefur. They charged out of camp and headed in the direction of the Thunderclan border. There cats were a washed in battle. Russetfur attacked a dark grey tom and flung him. she heard at cat scream "No Greystripe!" Russetfur guessed it was the tom's mate. She tried to locate Brambleclaw the deputy, when her eyes hit Firestar. Even better the Thunderclan leader, well he shall pay! Russetfur thought to herself, and with a screech of fury she launched herself at Firestar full of anger, that he would attack for no reason. She clawed at him, and pinned him down. Russetfur raised her paw ready to strike a killing blow, when something hit her hard. Unknowing she still managed to deliver a harsh blow to Firestar.
Russetfur could hear her clanmates calling her to wake up, and she could hear Blackstar hissing at Lionblaze for killing her, and that's when Russetfur knew she was dying.
She awoke in a nice forest, and saw a ginger tom walking towards her. "Hello Firestar" Russetfur hissed. The deep mew of another cat sounded "You have both lost a life." Russetfur turned around and saw Crowfrost, her old friend. "Firestar, you may return to your clan now." And with that Firestar began to fade. Then Crowfrost turned to Russetfur and mewed "I am sorry, but you must come to live with me now in Starclan." Russetfur just nodded in agreement.
Russetfur stared at a pool of water, which allowed her to see her clan. It was nearing moonhigh, and a new deputy would soon be named. She turned and face Littlecloud who had awakened beside her. Russetfur turned and said "The choice is that of the berry that is red, but has thorns as sharp as claws." Littlecloud nodded then dissolved. Russetfur watched as Rowanclaw took her place as deputy of Shadowclan. Russetfur purred with happiness as her last wish came true.
Suntalon: Okay I know what you're thinking that it was short, but think about it, it was really meaningful to all of the readers who loved Russetfur.
