ON WITH THE CHAPTER
…
Vole's pov
"Are you sure they will come Yarrow?" I snarled and he shot me a glare. We told Risk about going to Blazeclan to "spy" on them. I chuckled slightly at the plan and glanced once more at Breezeclan's territory. Nut kept shuffling his paws and looking back at the bushes nervously. "Hey you," I snapped, making him jump.
He sighed and then growled slightly. "What," he cleared his throat and looked once more at the bushes. I laughed slightly and licked my paw, drawing it over my ears. "Why are you so fidgety," I chuckled and smirked at his attempt to glare at me.
"Why are you asking me questions," he snarled and I laughed louder. "Shush," Yarrow snapped, making us both stop. I smirked once more at Nut before looking at Yarrow. "There," he said and leapt across the river quickly. I blinked multiple times before noticing that he landed on the other side. I shrugged and backed away a little.
Nut ran and leapt before I did and I growled. I swayed my tail and ran forward, leaping at the last second. I stumbled slightly when I landed but stood up tall. I saw four cats padding up to us slowly. Yarrow sat down and curled his tail around his paws neatly. I didn't really like Yarrow, but I respected him since he was stronger than me.
I lashed my tail and shook out my fur. "Hello, you must be Yarrow, Nut, and Vole," a silver she-cat with white stripes and golden-yellow eyes spoke up. "Yes, I'm Yarrow," Yarrow replied and glared at Nut and I. "Um, I'm Vole," I mumbled and flattened my ears slightly when they chuckled.
"And I'm Nut," Nut said. I was surprised that he didn't stutter. "Excellent, I'm Falconscreech," the silver furred she-cat said and nodded to her patrol. "I'm Shadowdust," a black furred tom with dusty grey paws and gold eyes said from the back of the group.
"Whitelake," a white furred tom with a blue-grey underbelly and blue-grey eyes spoke up next. They all glared at a blue-grey she-cat with white spots and blue-green eyes. "I'm Raindrop," she murmured and looked behind us. I followed her gaze and saw her staring at the same bush Nut stared at moments ago. I looked at her and back at the bush.
"Let's go, we don't have all day. Vole, lead the way," Yarrow snarled, catching my attention. "O-Of course," I stuttered and growled to myself for stuttering. I quickly padded to the front of the group and led them through Breezeclan territory.
All The Fang cat's had to know the territories well, in case of an attack or something like that. I lashed my tail and glanced at the others. "This trip will take long, so… um… could we run?" I tilted my head and they stared at me. Silence met my question. "Of course," Falconscreech finally spoke up. I sighed softly and began trotting at a slow pace.
I sighed softly and ran faster when they caught up. I had my doubts if the rogues at Twolegplace will actually remember me.
…
Swift's pov
It's been two days since I found out about Yarrow, Vole, and Nut's plans on taking over The Fang's. I told Topaz everything. I don't know if he believed me.
Topaz leapt at me and I was brought out of my thoughts. I shoved him away and quickly stood up, hissing at him. He chuckled and crouched down. We still trained every day, with and without the group. I ran forward and jumped over him when he ducked down. I turned around and pulled him down. He stumbled and fell onto his back. I pressed my paws against his belly and smirked.
"I could never beat you could I?" he purred breathlessly. I leaned down and he reached forward, making our noses touch. I purred and stepped off of him. He stood up and shook out his fur. "One more run?" he tilted his head and I nodded slightly.
"Alright," he sighed and stood up. I padded over to him and brushed against him. "Stop complaining," I purred teasingly and Topaz chuckled. "Besides, I think you're getting faster," I said and padded ahead of him. He perked his ears up and caught up with me. "Really," he said and I smiled. "Maybe," Topaz laughed slightly and nuzzled the side of my neck.
I flicked my ear and sighed softly, leading him through the forest. Every time that we trained, we always ran into Dash, Light, Cream, Russet, Wolf, and Lark. I growled slightly to myself and walked faster. Topaz easily caught up and glanced at me.
I heard a thud followed by a snarl and thrashing. Their scent became stronger and the noise became louder. Topaz stepped closer to me, pressing close against me. I glanced at him before we padded through the bushes.
"Hello," Lark greeted us first breathlessly. She was being pinned by Wolf. He laughed and nodded to us, letting her up. "Wait, um, can you help us train today," Dash stood in front of me with a hopeful look. I looked at the others and my eyes landed on Light. She shuffled her paws and looked away from my glare.
Topaz nudged my shoulder with his and I looked at him. He nodded and I sighed. "Alright, what did you have in mind," I said and turned to Dash again. "We wanted to do the circle training with experienced members," Russet spoke up first. The others nodded in agreement and I shrugged.
"Alright, Topaz, why don't you go in the circle first," I purred and he sighed. I smiled and he padded to the center of the circle we made. "I assume that you have tried this before," I said and looked at the other group. They nodded slightly and I looked at Topaz. "Then begin walking," I said before starting.
It didn't take long for Russet to run to Topaz. He leapt at the last second and Topaz stood on his hind legs, attempting to swat Russet out of the air. I raced forward and tackled him onto his belly. He gasped slightly and he landed on his front paws. He shoved against me, making me stumbled backwards. I knocked his back paws underneath him, making him stumble more.
He turned and glared at me. I chuckled and ducked underneath his paws. I saw Dash run out of the circle and leap at Topaz. I hit the side of Topaz's muzzle with my paw at the exact time Dash landed on his back. I backed up into the circle and shook out my fur. Wolf and Lark ran out at the same time, each on different sides. Topaz stood up tall, attempting to shake off Dash.
Dash grabbed hold of his scruff and landed on the ground, still holding his scruff. Topaz landed on his side beside Dash, letting Wolf place his paws against his throat and Lark press her paws against his belly.
I laughed slightly but stopped when I noticed that Light was staring at me. I shot her a glare and she immediately looked away. Topaz and Dash stood up. "Good job. Swift, your turn," Topaz said and padded to me with a smile. I padded closer to him and he nuzzled me. I purred slightly and brushed past him.
I shook out my fur and perked my ears up. I was still tired from training with Topaz. "Go," Russet said loudly and they began walking around me. That same panicky feeling from yesterday's training returned and I clenched my teeth. I lashed my tail and let out a loud hiss, startling the other group.
I smirked and sat down slowly, sitting in a way so I could leap from this position. I lashed my tail from side to side against the ground. The other group was wary, probably expecting Topaz to attack first. "Go on," I growled slightly, baring my teeth. I heard the sound of running behind me. I whipped around and leapt at whoever it was.
A squeak came from the cat who I pinned down. It was Light. She hissed and struggled against me. I narrowed my eyes and ignored the sound of running coming from behind me. At the last second, I leapt away from Light, leaping to the side of whoever was running to me.
Dash blinked in confusion before growling at me. I smirked and whipped around when I heard more pawsteps behind me. Cream slowed down when she met my gaze. I hissed when someone tackled me aside. I pushed whoever it was and rolled away from them. I stood up and lashed my tail. Topaz stood up and hissed.
I saw Russet charge forward. I turned to face him and snarled. He lunged forward, paw outstretched. I stepped back and slipped when someone tugged my paw from underneath me. I leapt out of the way just in time, barely escaping. Everyone began circling me again. I panted heavily and shook out my fur.
They exchanged glances and nodded slightly. I flattened my ears. They had something planned. I flicked my ears and tried to control my breathing. Lark and Wolf both sprinted to me suddenly. I shook my head and leapt over them. When I landed, Dash hit the side of my head, making me stumble.
Lark and Wolf leapt onto my shoulders and I saw Cream and Russet run towards my side. I gave myself a strong shake, causing Lark to fall but Wolf held on. I lashed my paw at Dash, making him fall on his side. Russet and Cream leapt onto my side, Wolf leapt off just at the right time. I growled when I landed on my side roughly and kicked Russet away.
Light leapt onto my side and placed her paws on my shoulders. I narrowed my eyes and grew angry suddenly. I was not about to be pinned to her. I rolled onto my back, my belly now exposed. I lashed my paw at her, hitting her cheek. She growled and backed away a little, shaking her head.
I wasn't fast enough to stand up. Topaz pinned me down by the time Light backed away. I growled and he frowned down at me slightly. I looked away and flicked my ear. "Alright, who's turn," Topaz spoke up. I stood up when he backed away. I shook out my fur and lashed my tail.
…
It was past Sunhigh by the time everyone had gone. Light was the last one and I let Dash pin her down. We were all sitting down, trying to catch our breaths, when Spirit ran into the clearing. "O-One of Furze's kits… killed," he said between pants. I perked my ears up and stood up. He took a deep breath in and closed his eyes.
"Ember wanted everyone in camp, just to have a small ceremony for Heather," he whispered and began trotting back in the direction of camp. Even though this was one of Yarrow's kits, I still felt pity for Furze. I flicked my ear and followed everyone back to camp.
The entire pack sat in a circle against the walls. Heather's little body lay in the center. I flattened my ears. Something had attacked her. Topaz and I found a spot next to Rat and Briar. There was silence.
"We found her by the Rogue River," Ring said through narrowed eyes. I never expected to see her cry, so I don't know why I was surprise she didn't. "They have taken this too far," she snarled and Risk silenced her. "You're too battle hungry Ring," he murmured over the silence and leapt down from the crevice.
"It is true, by the time Spirit had found her, she was being attacked by Runningstar and a patrol," Risk said loudly, his voice breaking the silence. "He deserves too feel pain," Ember snarled, small murmurs of agreement spread throughout the camp.
I looked around and saw Light staring wide-eyed at Heather's body. I couldn't blame her for it; she was training with us when this happened.
"Was it you Blazeclan cat," Coal snarled from his place, stalking over to Light. She looked away from the body and stood up. "N-No, I was out training," she said and shook her head. "Liar," Viper and Cobra hissed at the same time. "It wasn't her," I murmured quietly. Nobody heard.
I cleared my throat and walked through the crowd of cats that accused Light. I walked to her, some of them went silent. "Swift, what are you doing," I heard Topaz. I stood in front of Light and frowned. I stepped to her side and turned around. "It wasn't her," I said loudly.
She looked at me with shock. I was surprised myself, but I couldn't let a cat get blamed for something they didn't do. "You owe me one," I whispered to her and stepped forward. "She was out training with Dash, Cream, Russet, Wolf, Lark, Topaz, and I," I yowled, making everyone go silent.
The Snake brothers looked at each other and backed away, back to their spots. Caaj and Coal were the only ones left. The glanced at each other and went back to their spots hesitantly. "We cannot assume it was one of us," Risk growled and lashed his tail. He nodded to me and I padded away towards my den.
"Thank you," I barely heard Light before I pushed through the cats again. I padded into my den and jumped when Topaz licked my ear. "What," I growled slightly and he chuckled. "Why'd you defend her, I thought you didn't like her," he purred teasingly and I curled up in our nest.
"Be quiet," I laughed slightly and rested my head on the nest. "Change of heart," he purred again and I narrowed my eyes playfully. He laughed and nuzzled me before curling around me. "Yarrow won't like this," he said after a while and I sighed.
"I could care less," I mumbled and closed my eyes, hoping that I fell asleep quickly.
