Chapter 20
Breezeheart woke up. He wanted to talk to Leopardstar so he went towards his den. He sat on the entrance and waited for the leader to tell him to enter. But nobody talked.
"Leopardstar?", asked Breezeheart.
Nobody answered.
Breezeheart started panicking, and entered to the leader's den without permission. What he saw inside was something he would have in his memory forever.
The den was covered with blood, and in a corner of it, was Leopardstar lying dead.
Breezeheart ran away from the den and jumped on the high rock.
"Please everyone come here!", he shouted.
Everyone heard him, so they all went running towards the high rock.
"I went to Leopardstar's den… and he was… dead in a pool of blood!", he finally said.
The clan started going towards the leader's den, and Stormclaw and Jayflight carried his body towards the center of the clearing.
The clan started mourning for him, especially Tawnyfoot, his mother, Iceheart, his mate, and Grayfeather, Cloudheart, Morningcloud, Honeyflower, Splashpool, Blackstep, Blueflower, Gingerstorm, Silverwhisker and Redstripe, his kits.
Breezeheart couldn't believe Leopardstar was dead. He was starting to feel lonely, and went to the medicine cat den.
"What happened to Leopardstar?", he asked.
"We don't know", answered Petalwhisker. "But it's most likely he got killed by a cat", she said.
Breezeheart didn't understand. Who could have killed him? If it was a cat from another clan, they would have noticed. So that meant he was killed by someone from inside the clan. But who would want to kill him? Now that Foxfang was dead, all the LakeClan warriors were loyal to Leopardstar.
There were a lot of questions that needed to be answered.
"Tonight, I need both of you to come with me to the Moonstone", he said, looking at Hailpaw and Petalwhisker.
He went to sit vigil for Leopardstar. The clan would grieve for him, and he would always be remembered as one of the greatest leaders of his clan.
