Chapter 19
Flowerpool was very confused. She had so many questions about these strange cats and how Graystripe knew them. Why did one of them have a warrior name? Why are they here? Who are these strange cats?
Graystripe must have seen Flowerpaw staring, because he came towards her and Hazelpaw and introduced the strange cats.
"This is Stormfur, my son. He used to be a Clan cat, but he moved to the mountains. This is his mate, Brook and his kits, Pine and Lark."
"Hello there. My name is Hazelpaw." Flowerpaw was surprised that Hazelpaw didn't feel threatened like she did. She is training to be a medicine cat, after all.
"Hello Hazelpaw. Who's this here?" Stormfur asked, looking right at Flowerpaw.
"Hi. I'm Flowerpaw."
"You can come sleep with us elders!" Graystripe told the new cats. "You have a lot of catching up to do!"
"You're an elder now?" Stormfur asked his father.
"I'm lucky I've lived to become one!"
"Stormfur!" Flowerpaw turned around Bramblestar's words, surprised with the welcome in her leader's voice.
"Brambleclaw! I'm so glad to see you!"
"It's Bramblestar now."
"So Firestar…"
Graystripe nodded, not needing his son to finish.
"We need to stay here, at least for a while. Is that fine with you Bramblestar?" Stormfur asked.
"Of course. Why do you need to stay here?"
"We'll tell you later. We don't need the whole Clan to know."
Flowerpaw and her sister left the older cats to talk in peace. They silently agreed to go out of the camp to talk.
"I wonder what they're here for." Hazelpaw thought out loud. The silence that followed was broken by the sound of Tigerheart's voice.
"Dovewing is kitting!"
I've been a bit slack with my stories recently, but I'll try to update all my stories as much as possible! Next chapter is in Hazelpaw's POV.
