The founding of Brokenclan

Authors Note: so you guys are probably all going to hate me after this chapter but I thought I should give you some warning. WARNING major character death!

Review answers:

Fallen Dewdrops: because he's Brokenwings father and he can't stand the idea that she's anything other than weak.

Swiftstar1: she is pretty cool isn't she?

Imjaypaw: yes master!

Must love cats: what a coincidence your name is one of my fave shows on animal planet anyway I've never heard of those books or the author so I have no idea who you're talking about.

Robinpaw: yeh your allegiances idea is good but I need the leader of Brokenclan to receive their name before I do that.

Chapter 28: Saviour

Brokenwings POV

I headed out of camp with Robin leaning on my side, I was very aware that this would be the last time my paws walked this path as a mere warrior of Brokenclan. When I returned I would be Brokenstar the leader of Brokenclan.

Robin shared my excitement, and also my anxiety about leaving my clanmates to fend for themselves when Snowstar possibly still stalked the forest plotting my destruction.

However today was not a day for such dark thoughts and I shook them away today was a day for celebration finally our clan would really be a clan. With a real leader blessed by Starclan.

As we travelled towards Highstones which was about half a day's journey from where Brokenclans territory lay. The forest seemed to grow darker the fur on my neck rose I didn't like this part of the forest.

We set a faster pace going as fast as the two of us could manage, up ahead was a flat moor almost like the one Windclan lived on except of course we were separated from them by a large Twoleg place.

Before we could step out of the trees onto the moor a growl sounded from the bushes and Snowstar stalked out eyeing us both with hatred and a cold indifference that I shivered at the sight of.

" So you survived our last encounter Robin, very good" my father purred I sunk my claws into the soft dirt how could he manage to almost sound like any other cat when only darkness lay in his heart.

" Of course you still need to learn your manners after how rudely you treated me last time" my father suddenly lashed out and scratched Robin on his still healing ear. Robin let out a hiss of pain.

" Of course my daughter after your behaviour I can't allow you to continue your journey, running away from me and trying to pretend you are something when really you are insignificant when really you are nothing" I hissed and was ready to launch myself at him but Robin put his tail on my shoulder warning me to hold my temper.

Robins POV

He was baiting Brokenwing he wanted her to attack him and as soon as she did he would shred her. I placed my tail on her shoulder hoping to calm her we both needed to be clear headed to get out of this alive.

" Trying to help her Robin?" Snowstar showed his teeth " you could start by getting her a new leg" this time it was me who struggled to keep my temper in check how could he say those things about his own daughter.

" Not much of a fighter are you Robin? My daughter always was weak and now she has a weak mate!" I lost it I launched myself at him but Brokenwing was faster. She would have been a white blur but for me everything moved in slow motion.

I'll never forget those fateful few seconds when Brokenwing's claws sunk into Snowstars throat and with his face twisted in pain and rage he sunk his into Brokenwings throat his sharp claws doing more damage than Brokenwings did to him.

They both fell Brokenwing to one side and her father to the other I rushed to Brokenwing who was still alive and breathing while Snowstar wasn't.

The wound was deep and bloody there was nothing I could do but watch helplessly as the love of my life bled to death on the moor. Unlike Snowstar she didn't have nine lives.

" Brokenwing I'm so sorry now we'll never have kits and you'll never get to be leader like you wanted" I looked into her beautiful blue eyes for the last time and didn't see the hatred for me I expected to see instead they shone with love.

" Stop Robin don't blame yourself I can see it now this was always your destiny not mine, I'll wait for you I promise you'll be a great leader one Brokenclan will be proud of" she rasped I could see how it hurt her to talk but she struggled on.

Her eyes closed and she stopped breathing I wanted to stay there with her forever and never move again but she was right. I had always been destined to lead Brokenclan but even denying it hadn't saved her.

I had to go for Brokenwing before Snowstar woke so with one last look at my love I turned and stumbled on towards Highstones.

Authors Note: Great Starclan Brokenwing is dead and Robin is off to become leader next chapter will be up on Friday and it will be Robins leader ceremony! Don't miss it! And don't forget REVIEW!
