Flamestorm's point of view
" Oh my Starclan Lilyheart!" Flamestorm called out rushing over to Lilyheart's body.
" Lilyheart! Lilyheart! can you hear me" Flywhisker meowed panic rising in her voice.
Lilyheart sat motionless on the ground a pool of blood trickling from her mouth.
Flamestorm reached Lilyheart's side berrying his face into her fur.
" Lilyheart! Lilyheart! get up! come on Lilyheart you've got to get up" Flamestorm began panicking shaking Lilyheart's flank trying to get her to wake.
" Flamestorm I'm sorry but it's to late or her she's with Starclan now" Fernsong wrapped his tail around Flamestorm to comfort him.
" No she's not dead she can't be dead she gonna wake up and she's going to be fine" Flamestorm insisted.
" Blossomfall help me carry Lilyheart back to camp" Finleap meowed finally getting down from the tree.
" No she's fine she perfectly fine" Flamestorm cried out cried out desperately as Blossomfall and Finleap picked up Lilyheart's body and began to carry her back to camp.
" Flamestorm I know it's difficult but Lilyheart's in a better place now" Ivypool gently put her paw on Flamestorm's shoulder gently trying to comfort him.
" Leave me alone" Flamestorm snapped at Ivypool pushing her paw off his shoulder bolting across the Thunderpath and into the moor beyond.
" Flamestorm! Flamestorm! get back here please! " Flamestorm heard Shellfur and Whitewing call out from behind him Flamestorm continued running across the snowy more not stopping until he crossed the stream and made it into Thunderclan's forest.
Flamestorm finally stopped running when he found an old fox burrow underneath a large birch tree to crawl into.
Curling himself into a ball Flamestorm began weeping profusely why did all of this have to happen him in just a few days he had seen two cats die right in front of him.
" Starclan why did you have to do this to me" Flamestorm sighed looking up the cloudy morning sky peeking out from the burrow's entrance.
Flamestorm must have sat curled up in the burrow crying for about 10 minutes before he heard paw steps coming from outside
" Flamestorm! Flamestorm! are there you are" Fernsong poked his head into the burrow.
" Flamestorm can you please come out from that burrow" Fernsong asked timidly.
Flamestorm thought for a moment he thought about his mother and sister
" I don't want mom and Finchsong to worry about me" Flamestorm decided that it was ultimately in his best interest to follow Fernsong back to camp.
" Oh thank Starclan we found you" Ivypool meowed from behind Fernsong Flamestorm felt a rush of guilt for snapping at Ivypool he knew that she didn't disserve that.
" Uh hay Ivypool"
" What is it Flamestorm?" Ivypool replied
" I just wanted to say that I'm sorry for snapping at you back there I know that i was being completely unreasonable "
" Oh don't worry it's ok Flamestorm" Ivypool replied.
Flamestorm looked across across the forest the trees sat quietly in the morning.
Flamestorm's mind brought him back to when Lilyheart first took Flamestorm on a tour of Thunderclan's territory when he became an apprentice.
He remembered how much more simply things were back then before there was a food crisis or the kin or the punishment from the Dark Forest that was the wolf when all he worried about was being the best apprentice he could possibly be.
He wanted to go back to those day's.
Wrenpaw's point of view
" Hello Starling it's me and Wrenpaw's turn to watch you" Nectarsong meowed
" Oh hi there" the spotted ginger tom turned his head to meet her and Nectarsong's vision before turning his eyes back to the ball of moss he was fiddling with.
" Really that's it this guy's a kin cat?" Wrenpaw though to herself she had an image of what The Children Of The Kin cat's were going to be like if she met one and needless to say Starling defiantly did not fit that description.
Wrenpaw sat by the medicine den milling her paws in the snow boarded out of her mind wondering why she had to be stuck with the most dulling job in all of Skyclan.
Nectarsong seemed to be less boarded then Wrenpaw the brown she cat was extremally excited about her sister Fringewhisker's kits that would be coming in about half a moon she knew that Nectarsong wanted kits when she was older.
" Hay not sure if this is rude to ask but were did you find all of these plants?" Starling's meow interrupted the silence.
" Oh we find them out in the woods each herb dose something different" Nectarsong replied.
" Nectarsong! don't give that away to him" Wrenpaw snapped.
" Oh no don't worry about me I wouldn't even know what most of these herbs do" Starling replied sheepishly.
" How do we now that?"
" Trust me we don't really use herbs in the kin none of us would remember how they work"
" That must suck" Nectarsong replied Wren though about the injury's she and the rest of Skyclan had gotten in battle it must have hurt like the Dark Forest to have to deal with those without herbs"
Wrenpaw noticed something was happening to her left Leafstar Hawkwing Frecklewish and Fidgetflake were quietly talking amongst themselves.
" Wonder what there talking about?" Wrenpaw asked Nectarsong pointing towards the cats talking among themselves.
" Don't know"
" There probably talking about me " Starling meowed from inside the medicine den.
" Who knows what there gonna do to me" Wrenpaw could here the fear behind Starling's voice.
" Oh don't worry Leafstar's very forgiving cat the worst that there gonna do is keep you here some more"
" Excuse me Wrenpaw Nectarsong" Leafstar meowed.
" You two are free to go me and Hawkwing want to talk to Starling in private"
" Yes Leafstar" Wrenpaw and Nectarsong bowed there head to there leader before trotting of to join the rest of there clanmates.
" What to you suppose they wanted to talk to Starling about?" Nectarsong asked.
" Don't now but whatever it was it must be something important"
Starling's point of view
" Excuse me Starling can we talk to you about something" Hawkwing the Skyclan deputy meowed strolling into the medicine den Leafstar following behind him.
" Yes sir" Starling felt his body tense up he knew that if the leader and deputy wanted to talk to him that it had to be important.
" As you know you've been a prisoner in are camp for a quarter moon now and me and the other cats of Skyclan have though about what to do with you"
Starling's heart began to race a million different ideas about what they were gonna do to him keep him here forever lock him away execute him!
" We have decided that the best thing to do with you is to send you in to spy on the Kin"
" Wait really?" Starling couldn't believe that was what they decide for him that was one of the last thing's we would have guessed.
" You will me sent out back to the kin and stay there until they plot there next attack on the clans then you will come back here and tells us everything so that we can counter them"
" And if you don't comply to us then there will be deadly consequences got it" Hawkwing added his yellow eyes narrowing into slit's.
" Got it Hawkwing" Starling replied.
" Good you start right now" Leafstar announced " follow me" Leafstar swished her tail towards the camp entrance.
" Hawkwing and Fidgetflake will escort you down to the horeplace from there you'll be in twoleg place on your own" Leafstar explained.
" The kin will still trust you right?" Fidgetflake meowed padding up from behind Starling.
" Oh ya once I didn't show up after the attack the next day they would either think I was captured or killed they won't suspect a thing"
" But won't the other Skyclan cats wounder wear I am"
" Don't worry all tell them once you get back" Leafstar replied.
" Alright off we go" Hawkwing signaled with his tail followed by Fidgetflake and Starling.
Starling walked silently through Skyclan's forest it was the first time Starling had got to see the clan's territory when he wasn't focused on a kin mission or running for his life he found the forest very peaceful it sat quite in the dead of Leafbare the tree's branches bent and quivered from the weight of all the snow hung on them. It was a bright cloudless morning the sunlight bounced of the snow Starling had to squint from the brightness.
Starling liked the forest it was a lot more peaceful to walk through then the noisy alleys of twolegplace.
As the three cats exited Skyclan's forest and began to follow the Thunderpath towards the horseplace Dewspring finally broke the silence.
" So Starling what's it like living in the kin "
" Not very nice we spend most of are time training"
" Ya that make's sense"
" So " Hawkwing added in.
" What's up with you guys and that wolf "
" Shadowmaw is what they called him"
" So you guys are working together"
" Yah one of the other kin cats told me that if we gave him food after battles that he would know not to attack us and attack the clans"
" Sounds like a kin thing to do" Dewspring meowed in a snarky tone.
" At least that's what I know Sleekwhisker is really the only one that knows what were doing" Starling felt very awkward talking about his life in the kin he could tell Hawkwing and Dewspring were judging him.
" Alright were at horseplace" Hawkwing exclaimed pointing towards the buildings on the hill Infront of them.
" Alright your on your own now" Hawkwing meowed.
" Don't disappoint us" Dewspring added.
" Don't worry I won't" giving one last node Starling turned around and crossed the Thunderpath bound for Twoleg place and The Kin.
Finchsong's point of view
Finchsong sat quietly grooming herself below the great oak tree she was scheduled to go on the 3rd morning hunting patrol in about 15 minutes and she wanted to be up early so her hunting skills were on point.
" Bramblestar!" Whitewing's panicked cry echoed through out the island.
" Whitewing what is it" Bramblestar's tiredly resounded.
" It's Lilyheart she's dead" Just as Blossomfall spoke Finchsong saw Blossomfall and Finleap careering Lilyheart's body into the center of camp.
" Oh great Starclan what happened this time" Bramblestar meowed solemnly.
" She climbed up a tree to try and catch a crow she lost her grip and fell" Finleap replied head hung low to the ground.
Finchsong looked at the camp entrance to see the Fernsong, Ivypool and Flamestorm walk into the camp.
" Flamestorm what happened are you alright" Finchsong could tell that Flamestorm had been crying.
" I id rather not talk about it right now" Flamestorm wisped silently eyes downturned towards the ground.
" Oh my Starclan" Honeyfur shriek rushing over to her mothers corpse followed by Leafshade from the makeshift warriors den.
Finchsong sat quietly beside her brother and mother as Bramblestar began reading if Lilyheart's vigil she hadn't really known Lilyheart personally she remembered her coming by to visit her and Flamestorm as kits but she knew that her brother was always closer to there grandmother then her being her apprentice.
" Lilyheart lived a noble life as a warrior she lost her mother and sister at a very young age she would go on to become a loving mother and fostered Twigbranch without hesitation"
" Now would anybody like to give any parting speeches about Lilyheart" Bramblestar meowed.
Finchsong expected her aunts Leafshade and Honeyfur to give a speech about there mother probably Twigbranch and Brackenfur as well but a familiar voice spoke up and took her by surprise.
" Ya I have something that I would like to say" Bayblossom meowed.
