I want to take this note to apologize for being gone for so long. I was just able to log back into my fanfiction account and I will hopefully be continuing. I again apologize for the sudden disappearance and I'm back on track! This is a relatively short chapter, as a comeback from being gone for so long.
I hope you understand. Thank you!

Yellowfang rushed out, limping because of the pain in her leg, and bolted into the elder's den.
"Where's Silverflame?!" She cried. Lizardfang looked up with grief in his eyes. He opened his mouth, closed it again, then spoke up.
"She died of sickness. Nobody knew about it. She was able to keep it a secret for so long. Too long." He whispered.
Yellowfang backed up in shock. She never realized that Silverflame was sick. She should've. Yellowfang slowly felt the blame for Silverflame's death transfer to her.
"But how did she die?" Yellowfang shuddered.
Lizardfang shrugged. "We were just rolling around in the sun, then she got a headache, so she told me she was going to go take a quick nap, but she never woke up or came back out. I should've known because usually, she acts so healthy and bright! It was like nothing was wrong with her!"
Yellowfang placed a paw on Lizardfang's shoulder. "It's not your fault. It's mine. I should've made sure that she wasn't sick. I'm a medicine cat, after all."
Lizardfang glared at her. "You're a medicine cat apprentice, not a real one yet. This should go to Sagewhisker immediately."
Yellowfang took a step back with shock. Of how many bad things Lizardfang has spat at her, that was the worst one yet. Although she understood why Lizardfang was being so salty. His friend just died while they were fighting off rats.
Yellowfang raced out of the den and into the medicine cat den, quickly bursting in.
Sagewhisker looked up from counting some herbs.
"What is it, Yellowfang?" The black and white cat looked confused as well as concerned.
"It's Silverflame! She's dead!"
