Chapter 5
Round two
The second trial was, as Savah put it, the one of wits. But I thought it was not that witty.
I mean taking away a persons weapon just to hide it didn't strike me a being witty. But the part where the person had to find their weapon and bring it back using just their wits worked well on me.
"Good luck Cutter." I told him as he as blindfolded once more and put on the back of a zwoot.
"I'm getting really tired of the blindfolds." He grumbled
I laughed, "Just think...the next trial you don't need a blind fold." I told him
"And how do you know?" he asked me
I smiled, "Cutter you should know by now that I know everything."
"If you know everything than who's going to win this trial?"
"Why you of course"
"Than how come you just wished me good luck." Cutter pointed out to me
"It's the thought that counts. I was just giving you an extra bust of self esteem, so sue me!" I was still smiling as they started off with Cutter calling back to me:
"What's sue?"
I turned just as Crescent came up to me, 'can I talk with you while they're off?'
I smiled and nodded. I followed her to a water hole and started to drink as she told me what she had to say.
'You're her.' She said simply and it made me spit out my water
"What?!?" I asked as I sat down besides my wolf friend
'You are Moonfell, the true Moonfell. I should know.' Crescent licked my cheek
"So I'm Moonfell after all." I smiled, "I have to tell Treestump!" I got up, "Coming with me, or are you going to sit there all content about telling me?" I asked my wolf
'Moonfell through and through. Kind but mean and strong but weak all at the same time.' the wolf answered me as she followed me.
Treestump was waiting for Cutter to come back. When I saw him I covered his eyes and asked in his ear, "Who am I?"
"Nightlily." He said in a clear voice
"Nope, guess again." I smiled
"MOONFELL?" he turned and wrapped me into a bear hug, I squealed with happiness
"What are you guys so happy about?" Skywise came up behind us
I danced around him, "I remember what my name is!!" I said in a singsong type of voice
Skywise caught me by my waist and pulled me close, "What! What's your name??" he asked
I gave him my Bearclaw smile and whispered, "I was five when we last met. You were hiding from Foxfur at the time when you found me stargazing. You asked me to be your lovemate when I got older, and I said that I wouldn't be around when I'm old enough to have one, I than disappeared. Who am I?"
Skywise eyes widened, as he looked me over. Than he turned his gaze to Treestump, to confirm what he thought
Treestump gave a nod, "She's our Moonfell, I'd bet my ax on it!"
Skywise looked at me again, "Moonfell.." he whispered, "My Moonfell.." he hugged me again and a smile came over his face.
I suddenly remembered all his 'lovemates', "Did Foxfur find you? Or did it take her a while to make you her lovemate?" I pushed out of his arms and turned to Treestump, "I think we should go tell the others before Cutter gets back."
Treestump nodded and walked with me to tell the rest. Leaving Skywise hitting himself for being as low as calling me his when I wasn't.
I had just sat down by Leetah when Cutter came back, this made me smile that he was the first one. Cutter sat by Treestump and Skywise as he started to lace up his pants.
"He won again?" Leetah looked over at me
"I don't know what to tell you babe. You could stop this at any moment, but you wish now to." I gave her my look of pity, "What's wrong that you can't accept it?"
Leetah turned away, not wanting to look me in the eye.
'Moonfell?' Cutter sent to me
I turned to look his way I guess Treestump told him. 'Yes TAM?'
'Are you my little sister?' he asked
'That's what Crescent told me.' I wondered where this was going
'Than tell me something only my sister would know.'
I smirked, 'like what? That I know your soul name, or that father hit you in your right cheek when you were 12 turns old.'
Cutter's eye's widened as he gave a smile, 'no one knew that other than mother and Moonfell.'
A sudden movement at the corner of my eye and I turned my head to find Rayek returning.
"What kept you, O mighty slayer of toads?" Skywise teased and I gave a snort. Which didn't make Leetah all that happy.
"Cutter's been back a good while!" Skywise smiled at informing Rayek.
But his smile vanished when Cutter told how he got New Moon back.
"Cheat! Deceiver! What proof of wit is it to use a magic stone?!" Rayek shouted, "I could have used my powers, but I did not!"
Suntoucher stepped forward, "Cutter used no magic Rayek... He thought of this stone only as a good luck talisman. That its natural power to adhere to metal would work for him was Cutters accidental discovery."
I gave a devil smirk as Rayek went to cry on Leetah's shoulder. But my eyes were on my brother. For now I knew that I had to protect him in the up coming quest of searching for kin, and other things. That is what a family did, or so I thought. Little did I know what in for (A/N: right I know some of ya are like "what??" But I plan to make this story longer that I had first thought it would be...O! And just to warn most this story will not end happily!! Yes I said not end happily!!! But the next one with Moonfell in it will... I promise ()
