Chapter Twenty-five.
Wolfpaw bounded back into the camp with the others. Wildpaw pounced on Wolfpaw and the two wrestled with laughter.
"That's enough you two." Stonepaw said.
"Stop being a stick in the mud Stonepaw." Wildpaw said getting off Wolfpaw.
"I'm not being a stick in the mud."
"Yeah you are." Wolfpaw said.
"I am not." Stonepaw said again.
"Then prove it." Wildpaw said.
Stonepaw smirked and pounced on Wildpaw. Lillypaw and Wolfpaw watched laughing.
"'Paws!"
They all stopped to find Sunpool.
"This is no time to start acting like kits."
"Sorry Sunpool." they all said standing up.
Sunpool nodded with satisfaction.
"Come on Stonepaw. We're going on a patrol."
"Bye guys."
"See ya Stonepaw."
Wolfpaw walked off to the nursery.
"Hello Wolfpaw." Cherrypit said.
"WOLFPAW!" screamed a kit jumping onto her friend.
"Were have you been!?" the she-kit screamed. "I haven't seen you in forever. I wish I was an apprentice!"
"Me too." Wolfpaw laughed. "But you have to wait two more moons."
"I know. Why'd you have to remind me?"
"Cause sisters are mean." Wolfpaw said rolling onto her side making Owlkit lay next to her.
"Hey, Wolfpaw?"
"Yeah Cherrypit?"
"Think you could play with Owlkit while I take a nap?"
"Sure."
"Thanks." Cherrypit goes back into the nursery.
"You've been keeping your mother up haven't you?"
"Maybe."
Wolfpaw laughs.
"Okay. What do you want to do?"
...
...
Wolfpaw played with Owlkit and a ball of moss till the sun disappeared from view in the camp.
"See ya later Owlkit." Wolfpaw said walking to the apprentice den.
"Se ya."
Wolfpaw yawned and her eyelids started to droop. She made it to her nest in time to collapse and fall asleep.
...
...
Wolfpaw woke up to rain.
"What? But the skies were clear yesterday." Wolfpaw said in confusion.
She then realized everyone was gone.
Where is everyone? Wolfpaw thought. She walked outside to find everyone- heads lowered and ears pinned to their heads- surrounding something... or someone.
Wolfpaw pushed through the crowd of cats. When she reached what they were surrounding Wolfpaw almost fell. They were surrounding a giant hole. Wolfpaw's heart sank into her stomach has she looked in... only to be pushed into the hole.
Wolfpaw screamed, clawing at the air. She finally landed in the black void. Wolfpaw looked up to find the hole close and she stood fox lengths away from Lillypaw.
"Again!" Wolfpaw screamed.
The earth started to crumble and she raced towards Lillypaw. Lillypaw hung her head and her ears were pinned down. But this didn't slow down Wolfpaw. When she was about three fox lengths away... Lillypaw looked up and Wolfpaw gasped. She tripped and rolled closer to Lillypaw and the earth stopped shaking. Wolfpaw looked back up at Lillypaw. The two starred at each other. Wolfpaw as scarred... but Lillypaw. Lillypaw was crying and her eyes were bloodshot. She started to cry again and the earth started to shake.
"Lillypaw." Wolfpaw screamed.
Lillypaw didn't say anything.
"Lillypaw! Stop!"
The earth started to crumble underneath Lillypaw. Wolfpaw dashed over to the she-cat... but it was too late. Lillypaw fell into the hole screaming.
"NO!" Wolfpaw screamed and tried to catch her friends paw... but she missed. Wolfpaw watched helplessly as Lillypaw fell into the dark, her tears fallowing after her.
"Lillypaw!" Wolfpaw screamed into the hole.
"This is all your fault."
Wolfpaw turned around to find Stonepaw... but Stonepaw didn't look like Stonepaw. She looked like a corpse of her. She had wounds and decaying spots all over her. Her eyes were also bloodshot and blood oozed out of cuts all over her. Wildpaw, her clan, and some other cats stood behind Stonepaw.
"What?"
"It's all your FAULT!" Stonepaw stood up shaking the ground. "BECAUSE OF YOU WERE ALL DEAD! EVERY SINGLE ONE OF US!"
"No. NO! Your lying! This isn't real."
"It's real alright! Stonepaw pushed Wolfpaw into the hole and Wolfpaw clung to the side her paws clawing at the earth still beneath them while her back paws clawed at the side.
Wolfpaw looked up at Stonepaw, tears in her eyes. Stonepaw's eyes were filled with so much rage and hatred towards her.
"It's your fault that Lillypaw is dead."
Stonepaw clawed at Wolfpaw's shoulder and threw her into the darkness of the hole.
"NO!" Wolfpaw screamed as Stonepaw got smaller and smaller... then everything went black.
...
...
Yes! I'm ending it right here! Hahaha!
