OMG! Hawkstar! AAAACK! How will they avoid him, did he know they were spying? How are they gonne tell everyone else? READ READ READ! Enjoy
Grassheart softly padded by flinching, she murmured, "Does he know we're here?" Sunstorm shook his head, "I don't know..." Hawkfrost ears twitched, "I know someone's watching me, Sunstorm, I'm upset you have to spy on your mentor."
Moonflower sat stiffly on the ground not daring to breath. "Run!" Woodclaw hissed from the shadows. Bolting away the chase began, Hawkfrost left Leopardstar there and pelted after them growling, "Come back here!"
Moonflower's legs felt as weak as the thin tail of a mouse, her heart pounded in her heart and a foreboding voice rang in her mind. Night must join with Moon to defeat the tiger of the river, but before there is peace blood will spill blood...
Moonflower shook her head violently and kept running, into the lake and back to camp. She didn't look back until she was by the secret entrance. Her head swung around taking worried glances around her. Hawkfrost was now chasing Sunstorm and Badgerstrength.
Moonflower wanted to help, but her paws were glued to the ground. The tiring run and the icy chill of the water made her head spin and for a moment she thought she saw the lake turn into a thick crimson liquid. She blacked out right there and then.

"Moonflower!" Grassheart was sniffing for any signs of life, and Night was pacing back and forth, "All my fault, oh, all my fault..." Moonflower shot straight up onto her paws gasping and panting, heaving a sigh she plopped down sitting.
"Is this the trouble you wanted me to come for?" Night mumbled gazing at the starry sky. "Yes, this is..." Night nodded, "The Tribe of Endless Hunting had sent me a brief message before, I didn't know it meant this until I came."
Moonflower scrambled to her paws, "Best go back, we've been gone for nearly a whole day." No one protested at all. They padded silently into camp. Sorreltail suddenly poked her head out of the warriors den and purred, "My children!"
Moonflower soon found herself being drowned with vigorous licks, "Stop, please stop!" Night giggled nearby watching them all trying to get out of Sorreltail's grasp. "I'm sorry, but a queen cares for her kits!" Woodclaw grumbled,
"We're not kits anymore." Moonflower had to agree to that. When Grassheart and Woodclaw had fled to the warriors den, she gazed at her mother seriously, "You knew all along I was adopted." Sorreltail tried to look shocked,
"That isn't true and you know that!" Moonflower replied steadily about to go back with her siblings, "I know already, and I've met my true mother." She slipped into the shadows of the warriors den and snuggled next to Grassheart and Night, watching the sorrowed face of Sorreltail.

Moonflower sneaked out the warriors den strecthing and yawning, no one saw her creep out of camp and go to the crystaly lake. She plunged into the water hoping not to attract any attention...too late! A light brown tabby tom bursted from no where.
Moonflower shrank back, recognizing the tom's scent. "Hawkfrost!" She snarled backing away. "What are you doing here?" Hawkfrost asked in a bored tone. His voice didn't have any threat in it surprisingly. She perked up her ears in curiousity.
Moonflower's ice-blue eyes were drawn to his exact copy. There was a warmth flowing from his gaze, one that she had never seen before. Now she knew something strange was going on. She backed away even more, but Hawkfrost followed.
"Why are you following me?" Moonflower nearly screamed. Hawkfrost looked down at his paws for a moment, then he mewed back in a soft, barely inaudible voice, "I have feelings for you, I love you, but you like Sunstorm."
Moonflower twitched her brow(An: if cats do have eyebrows!)"Th-that's a lie!" "No..." He locked his eyes onto hers, she did notice something different, his eyes shone with unbearable love that he had probably been hiding for all his life.
Moonflower teared away swimming through the water madly. "Paws off Hawkfrost!" Sunstorm was gasping for breath nearby. A loving purr rumbled deep inside her throat. Sunstorm splashed into the water and stood infront of her.
Moonflower nuzzled his back fur, "My hero!" Hawkfrost's gentle face turned into its usual coldness, "Sunstorm..." "Hawkfrost..." The two toms glared at eachother for what seemed like an eternity. She was actually bored right now.
Moonflower saw Sunstorm wince slightly under the icy look of his mentor, finally she announced, "Okay, staring contest over I am getting bored!" Sunstorm reluctantly came with her to ThunderClan territory, while someone called Hawkfrost's name.
Moonflower shook her head, "Was he lying?" He shrugged, "I don't know, but what I do know is you came to tell me something." Moonflower nodded, "Sharp as always, I need your help, please, watch for Hawkfrost's every move. He might plan to attack all of us."
Sunstorm purred, "Say no more, I'll do this for you." Moonflower brushed her silver pelt against his ginger pelt, "Thank-you so much! See you at the Gathering tonight." Sunstorm dipped his head in a Good-bye and went back to his own Clan.
Moonflower sniffed the air while padding back to ThunderClan camp, she could feel two ice eyes watch her every pawstep. Her tail stood rigid and she walked back cautiously. Her fur stood on end, "My enemy likes me!"
Moonflower mewed in bewilderment, "Great StarClan this is horrible!" She shuddered at the thought of bearing Hawkfrost's kits. Night let out an amused mrrow, "What happened? It seemed like a ghost came by haunting you."
Moonflower muttered under her breath but still loud enough for her sister to hear, "Close enough to a ghost!" Night cocked her head to the side but didn't ask any questions, "I'm going on a hunting patrol, Brambleclaw wants to know if you want to come."
Moonflower shook her head, "No thanks, my belly hurts for some reason, you go." Night gave her sister a worried glance, "Alright...but go see Leafpool." Moonflower agreed and walked to the medicine cat's den. "Hello."
Leafpool murmured warmly, but there was a hint of sorrow jabbed into her words. "Hi Leafpool! Night told me to see you, my belly feels...well, wierd, and it hurts a little bit too, I'm eating more then usual also, is that a sign of infection?"
Leafpool shrugged, "Well, let's see." Her paws expertley searched Moonflower's belly. A glint of amusement and worry shined in her eyes, "You, are bearing Sunstorm's kits." Moonflower's eyes widend, there was silence for a moment.
"No this can't be not before I go fight Hawkfrost! No no no no no no..." "WHAT?" Leafpool flinched, "I said, you're bearing kits, but the stage of pregnancy only started just now, I hope thats better news." Moonflower's head spinned.
"Bearing...kits...already?" She mewed hoarsly, it wasn't that she didn't like kits, she loved them, but this would mean extra trouble, they had to fight Hawkstar, and if her belly was swollen...that would be horrible. Moonflower sent a silent prayer to StarClan,
"Make us fight when my belly is still small."
