Chapter 13:
Tigercloud woke up in the medicine den with Snowbush snoring beside her. She felt a rush of affection for the young tom. He had saved her from Darkpool's treachery. She looked across the den. Darkpool was sleeping there with Icewhisper gaurding him to make sure he didn't try to hurt any other cat. He had cobwebs and sticky poultices all over his pelt. He was snoring. Tigercloud almost felt bad for him, but she didn't. It was against the warrior code to attack a clanmate, which is what he had done. Tigercloud wondered what Foxfur would do when he came back. Tigercloud padded out of the medicine den. Cats were still sitting beside Stormstar's dead body. Tigercloud walked over and buried her nose in her former mentor's shoulder. She breathed in the last of her scent. Tigercloud would miss her a lot.
Tigercloud opened her eyes and Foxfur walked into camp with Autumnleaf behind him.
Emberpaw ran over to him. "What was the moonpool like?" She asked him.
"Emberpaw!" Tigercloud called to her apprentice. Emberpaw scampered over to her mentor. "Leaders and medicine cats are forbidden to speak about what happens at the moonpool." Tigercloud explained to Emberpaw.
"Ok." Emberpaw meowed. But she was still staring at Foxfur. Tigercloud moved aside as the elders came to rub herbs on Stormstar's body to remove the stench of death. Tigercloud felt a pang of sadness as the elders carried her limp body away for burial.
