My jaw dropped open when Ace finished his story. He was Spotstar, the leader of Grassclan? One of the legends? His story fascinated and scared me at the same time. I wondered if he had a mate...
No! Why were those thoughts coming into my head? I needed to ask him more.
"So, since I've told you my story, why don't you tell me yours?" He asks me. I nod and launch into the part where it all started.
I told him about getting my apprentice, Heatherpaw. I explained how I nearly killed her, but instead I killed my leader. Rabbitstar. He listened, never interrupting, never asking questions. When I finished, he was silent. Was he going to kick me out of his little group? Did my deeds change his mind about keeping me alive? His next words relieved me.
"That is exactly how I felt when the rock had been in control of me." He said quietly. His gaze was dark. "It had caused my leader to die, and had granted me a wish. What will it do now? Give whoever is in possession of it powers?" I realized what he said was true. The rock must give a gift-good or bad- to whoever has it before it is lost or destroyed.
"I was also wondering," I began. "Could you help me? I mean, help me try to stop whoever has the rock and destroy the rock?" I asked, words tumbling out like a river. I shut my jaw, wishing I hadn't asked that. Keeping me alive was merciful enough, but helping me? I knew he would say no.
"Of course." He answers, surprising me. "I would do anything to get rid of that stupid rock."
