Chapter 19

Tigerclaw padded on, staying close to the river. He was still feeling bad about what had happened earlier that day.

Feathertail had noticed something was wrong, for she didn't leave Tigerclaw's side for the whole day. At around sunset time, Feathertail stopped. "Whats wrong, Tigerclaw? I can tell something is bugging you, what is it?" she meowed.

"It's nothing," Tigerclaw meowed, thought it wasn't nothing. He had attacked his own sister, and he would never forget that.

"It's not nothing, Tigerclaw, you've been down all day," Stormfur meowed, coming to stand beside his sister. Squirrelpaw came to stand beside Stormfur, the anger in her green eyes was replaced by deep concern.

"It's nothing," Tigerclaw repeated and padded onward.

"Tigerclaw stop!" Feathertail meowed and hurried to catch up with him.

"What?!" Tigerclaw snapped.

"Why are you so down?" Feathertail asked, "ever since we meet up with Squirrelpaw, you've been down."

"Yeah, whats the matter, Tigerclaw?" Squirrelpaw asked, coming to stand beside Feathertail.

"I told you, it's nothing, leave me alone!" Tigerclaw hissed and went off ahead of the group, leaving Feathertail and Squirrelpaw staring after him, baffled.

I attacked my own sister, I'll never forgive myself for that, Tigerclaw thought as he paused by the river and took a long cool drink.

Why don't you just tell them that? Solar suggested.

I can't, I want to, but I can't, it's like, though I'm good now, Tigerstar's bad instincts are still inside me, Tigerclaw meowed.

It's normal, when you are reborn, you always remember something about your past life, and sometimes you even act like your past self, a new voice whispered into Tigerclaw's mind.

Tigerclaw recognized that voice, it was Bluestar. Is that why I always have flashbacks, and every now and then, I act like Tigerstar, like when I attacked Squirrelpaw? Tigerclaw thought back.

Thats normal, when you're reborn, Bluestar repeated into Tigerclaw's mind.

Tigerclaw sighed and continued onward.

"Tigerclaw, wait up!" Tigerclaw stopped and glanced back to find Feathertail, Stormfur and Squirrelpaw hurrying toward him.

Squirrelpaw skidded to a halt beside Tigerclaw with Feathertail and Stormfur just behind her. "You can't just walk away like that, we could get separated in this unknown place," Squirrelpaw panted.

Tigerclaw sighed, "I guess, but we need to keep going, Solar and her friends were delayed like we were," he meowed.

"Well, I'm sorry, I was worried about you, but of course you can't see that, all you want to do is follow your ambition," Squirrelpaw hissed.

Tigerclaw flinched and Feathertail rounded on Squirrelpaw, "can't you be quiet just for a little while, can't you see Tigerclaw is sad?" she hissed.

Tigerclaw has never heard Feathertail sound so fierce before. Squirrelpaw widened her eyes and turned to look at Tigerclaw. Tigerclaw looked away, she didn't want to meet her gaze, not after what happened earlier.

Squirrelpaw seemed to see the sadness and anger in side Tigerclaw because she clamped her mouth shut. "I'm so sorry, Tigerclaw," she meowed, her tail was over her mouth when Tigerclaw looked up.

"No, I'm sorry, Squirrelpaw, I shouldn't have attacked you earlier," Tigerclaw meowed, looking at his paws.

Feathertail pressed herself against Tigerclaw, "come on, Tigerclaw, we need to get going," she meowed.

Tigerclaw nodded and padded onward. After a while, rain started to fall from the dark, cloudy skies. "Just what we need, a soaking," Squirrelpaw muttered, fluffing up her fur against the cold wind that blow toward them.

Is it raining where you are? Solar asked Tigerclaw in his mind.

Yeah, we're looking for shelter now, Tigerclaw thought back.

We have to shelter in a tree, because we are still lost in this unknown forest. Solar commented.

Your lucky, we are along a river and it's starting to hail, Tigerclaw thought back.

"It's like Starclan is mad," Squirrelpaw meowed, jumping as another thunderclap sounded and a lightening beam struck through the sky.

"We need to find some shelter," Stormfur meowed, sniffing the air. He hissed as a piece of hail hit him in the head, "and soon," he added.

Tigerclaw nodded and sniffed the air, "the only place I can think off in this area is the gorge Solar said we should be passing anytime," he meowed, shaking the rain off of his ears.

"I can smell something," Squirrelpaw meowed.

Tigerclaw hurried to his sisters side and sniffed the air. "We are near the gorge," he meowed, flinching as another lightening bolt shot through the sky.

"Come on, lets hurry," Feathertail meowed, running toward the gorge. Stormfur, Tigerclaw and Squirrelpaw were hard on her paws.

I wonder whats happening back in Thunderclan, Tigerclaw thought as he ran on.
