Chapter thirteen

Fireheart woke up around sunhigh the next day and sat up in his nest to see that Yellowfang must have gone into the clearing or must be out of camp. Stretching he sat up and poked his head out of the warriors den to see Tigerclaw sneaking out of camp and narrowed his eyes. He was about to follow the deputy when he heard the sound of mewling kits and glanced up to see Yellowfang enter camp carrying kits. At the sound of the kits cries everyone gathered around Yellowfang and he joined them to listen to what Yellowfang had to say. He listened as Yellowfang explained about Silverstream and how she had died baring Graystripes kit making his clan mates gasp in shock and disbelief. Shaking his head with sadness he looked up as Graystripe entered camp and ignored all of his clan mates and just disappered into the warriors den. 'I hope nothing like this ever happens to Cinderpelt,' he thought his heart pounding at the thought. Then he limped out of camp to try and find some herbs the might need for the kits and wondered if any of the queens would take Graystripes kits.

He was on his way back to camp when he heard yowls and he began to limp faster wondering what was going on and if Cinderpelt was hurt. When he finally entered camp he saw that his clan was fighting a bunch of rogues and he looked for Cinderpelt his heart pounding in his chest when he didn't see her.

Darkstripes POV:

Darkstripe had seen Tigerclaw head towards the leaders den and he followed him unsheathing his claws and made sure that no one was watching him. He had spied on Tigerstar when he had met with the rogues and he had come up with a plan. He would wait until Tigerclaw had killed Bluestar and then he would kill Tigerclaw and become the leader of Thunderclan. He came to a stop just outside Bluestars den and watched at Tigerclaw slashed his claws across Bluestars death. Thinking that she had lost her last life he jumped onto Tigerclaws back and bit down hard on his spine killing him. He heard Bluestar let out a gasp and he spun around his eyes blazing, ""Its not possible he growled unsheathing his claws and lunged towards Bluestar, but before he could reach her Cinderpelt slammed into him.

Cimderpelts POV:

She had come just as Darkstripe killed Tigerclaw and she knew that Tigerstar had taken one of Bluestars lives before Darkstripe had killed him. Before Darkstripe could take another life from Bluestar she tackled Darkstripe and pinned him down. "I should've of known that you were as evil as Tigerclaw," she growled dragging him out of the leaders den. "Tigerclaw took one of Bluestars lives, he was killed by Darkstripe who was plotting to kill Bluestar and take over Thunderclan," she yowled spotting Fireheart gazing up at her. Before Cinderpelt could say anything else Bluestar made her way out of her den.

"Thank you Cinderpelt, I will take it from here," Bluestar rasped gazing down at her clan her eyes still dull from losing a life. "Darkstripe you are exiled, if you are seen on our territory past sunhigh you will be treated like any enemy," she yowled.

Everyone spat at Darkstripe as he walked past him and out of the camp without a backwards glance at his former clan mates.

"Cinderpelt will be the new deputy of Thunderclan," Bluestar yowled before heading back into her den without saying another word to her clan.

I decided to kind of just reveal the prophecy, and Bluestar won't go crazy.
