A paw nudged me awake, "Spiritfeather wake up! Some cats went hunting and brought back loads of prey!"
I opened my eyes and saw Firestar standing over me. I stood up and shook my fur out, fluffing it against the cold. Firestar was right, almost every cat who went hunting brought back prey. Leopardstar and her warriors brought back fish, Tallstar brought back rabbits, Thunderclan with some mice and voles, and Shadowclan with frogs and birds. Suddenly Graystripe appeared with some weird object hanging in his mouth. It was kind of big and you could put stuff in it. Graystripe dumped the contents out of the thing he was holding. Delicious smells was coming from it. They were round, some had holes in it and other didn't.
"Graystripe! What is that stuff?" Blackstar asked.
"Its called Waffles and Pancakes! When I lived with twolegs, they would eat it in the morning. Sometimes their kits would give it to me!" Graystripe meowed happily.
"I am not eating that!" Ivypool growled.
I gave an evil grin, "Firestar! I dare you eat those Waffles!"
Firestar looked shocked, "You can't dare me!"
"Yes I can! I invited you all here and I'm in charge so I can dare you!"
Tigerstar laughed, "Eat up little kittypet! Eat your food!"
"Not so fast Tigertstar," I meowed, "You have to eat those Pancakes!"
Tigerstar looked at me, "I am not eating those!"
"Think of it as a race," I meowed.
"A race?" both toms glared at me.
"Yeah the first cat to eat all of their waffles or pancakes gets to dare their opponent," I said.
"Daring Firestar would be the best!" Tigerstar exclaimed.
I held a paw up, "You have to win first."
"No problem! Are you for it Firestar?" Tigerstar spat.
"Anytime!"
"Graystripe! Bring the twoleg food over here!" I ordered.
Graystripe pushed the food towards the toms and stepped back.
"On your marks! Get Set, GO!"
Firestar and Tigerstar dove right in, the two toms where neck and neck. Firestar ate the waffles only stopping to swallow. Tigerstar never stopped, he was determined to finish before Firestar.
"Firestar! Go Firestar!" Leafpool and Squirrelflight yelled.
"You can do it Tigerstar! Show that Kittypet whose boss!" Brokenstar growled.
I shook my head in amusement, the clans were acting like it was battle.
Then suddenly Firestar ate his last Waffle, Tigerstar only had one more left but it was too late, Firestar won.
"Yes! Firestar did it!" almost all the cats cheered.
Only Hawkfrost and Brokenstar remained silent, staring at Tigerstar with disgust.
"Firestar! You won! Now you can dare Tigerstar!" I meowed.
Firestar let out a burp, "I would rather ask a question, Tigerstar! Why do you hate me so much?"
Tigerstar glared at me.
"You have to answer," I told him.
Tigerstar rolled his eyes, "Reason one: You look my father who abandoned his clan to become a kittypet. Reason two: Bluestar paid you too much attention. Reason three: Your a kittypet and became leader. Reason four: You broke the Warrior Code multiple times and barely got punished, I break the Warrior Code and I get exiled!"
"So basically you hate Firestar because the world isn't fair?" I laughed.
"Shut it Spirit!" Tigerstar growled at me.
I stopped laughing, "Lets eat!"
Okay so that whole 544 words paragraph thing was for Muziccat91. Anyways these are cats so please cat dares, in real life you should NEVER give your cat human food. So yeah lets continue this chapter!
I finished my rabbit that I was sharing with Hollyleaf. I licked my tongue around my mouth to gather any last traces of morsel.
"Alright! We have some more dares and questions!" I meowed.
Every cat went back to their previous spot from yesterday.
"Okay Tigerstar you are up first! You have a question and a dare from Muziccat91! What would like first?"
"Dare first!" Tigerstar yowled.
I smiled, "Alright, You have been dared to go and hang out with Sandstorm for one day and at the end of the day you must kiss her!"
Sandstorm opened her mouth in shock, her pale, leaf-green eyes glaring at me.
"Sorry, but you have to!"
Firestar glared at Tigerstar, Tigerstar glared at me, flexing his claws. I knew he wasn't going to hurt me, none of these cats were going to hurt me.
"Well! Get going!" I pushed Sandstorm and Tigerstar together.
Tigerstar glared at me again before turning to Sandstorm, "Well lets go!" he grumped.
Tigerstar and Sandstorm walked off together.
"We are going to follow them... right?" Brokenstar asked me, his eyes gleaming.
"Oh Yeah!" I nodded, "But I can only take five of you, six at the most"
"why can't we all come?" Leafpool asked me.
"Because if we come and watch them then they have a better chance of not doing the dare!"
Hawkfrost shifted his paws, "Who gets to go?"
"Brokenstar, Hawkfrost, Lionblaze, and Tawnypelt!" I decided.
All the other cats grumbled and hissed, but I didn't have time for this. I gather the cats that were coming with me and we left.
I was sitting above Tigerstar and Sandstorm in a tree. The two cats where far enough apart that their fur didn't brush when they walked but close enough together where any passing cat might mistake them for mates. I gave a small purr at the sight of the two of them not tearing each other fur out, after all Tigerstar did kill Sandstorm's father. Then Tigerstar got into a hunting crouch and pulled himself forward. A little ways away was a thrush. Tigerstar bunched his muscles and leaped, killing the thrush instantly. The dark tabby tom brought his prey back to Sandstorm.
"We might as well share," he grumped, "No doubt Spirit is watching us right now."
Sandstorm dipped her head, "Thanks."
Tigerstar grumped, "And no doubt she brought some cats to watch us."
"Do you really think Spiritfeather is here?" Sandstorm asked with a mouthful of food.
"I wouldn't put it past her, she would never pass up this opportunity to tease us."
"How did you meet her?"
"After I got exiled, I was wondering around the forest and I came across her fighting a badger. I went to help her, figuring that she could repay me but when I came to help, she told me to back off and that she could handle it. I wasn't going to leave her so I helped her drive the badger off. When the badger left, Spirit said thanks and then left. I followed her for a while, into the two-leg place and found out that she was taking care of kits."
"Wait! Spiritfeather has kits?!" Sandstorm yelped.
Tigerstar shook his head, "No it turns out they where her sister's kits who was part of Bloodclan. So I left her and went back to get help from the rouges to destory Thunderclan. When I went to the two-leg place to get help from BloodClan Spirit was there. It turns out Spirit joined BloodClan to help take care of her sister's kits... But she is actually half-clan. She is Windclan and Thunderclan."
"Wow!" Sandstorm breathed. "I didn't know any of that!"
Tigerstar shrugged.
The two cats finished their meal in silence.
"So what now?" Sandstorm asked breaking the silence.
"Why don't we climb a tree?"
"Okay, nothing better to do."
Tigerstar walked right under my tree, "This looks like a good tree!"
Sandstorm rushed over, "Race you to the top!"
Sandstorm and Tigerstar climbed my tree, I backed up to the trunk, hoping that they wouldn't see me.
Then Tigerstar stopped on my branch, "Spirit? I knew it!"
"Spiritfeather! What are you doing here?" Sandstorm growled.
"Well its not like I trust you!" I shook my pelt out.
"Why not?" Sandstorm asked.
"Well, Sandstorm you tried to back out of your dare with Graystripe, and Tigerstar its not like your the most trustful cat around!" I spat.
"Spiritfeather! What's going on up there?" Hawkfrost was at the bottom of tree.
I ignored him, "I'm going back to the clearing because there are some dares and questions."
Tigerstar let out a sigh of relief, "Good!"
"But, Brokenstar, Lionblaze, Hawkfrost, and Tawnypelt is staying here to watch you. And if you don't do what your dare is, then I will come up with something worse." I meowed.
"Friendly isn't she?" Sandstorm mused.
Tigerstar huffed with annoynce and resumed climbing the tree.
I flicked my tail in farewell and left.
"Jayfeather!" Hollyleaf yowled.
"What is it?" the blind tom snapped.
"I found the stick! It still has the marks on it!" Hollyleaf gasped.
We were onto a dare for Hollyleaf to come up with a prank for Jayfeather with the help of Berrynose. The dare was from Muziccat91 (I know it seems like I'm favioring Muziccat91 but they were first. But all your dares and questions will be answered).
Jayfeather ran his paw over the stick, "Wow!" He breathed. " I can't believe you found it! I thought it got destroyed! "
Suddenly Breezepelt walked into the clearing, he just got back from making dirt.
"Hey! You guys got a scratching stick to sharpen our claws! Cool!" He ran over the stick.
"Don't be an idiot Breezepelt!" Jayfeather hissed. "That is not a scratching stick!"
"But...it has scratch marks in it...making it a scratching stick."
Breezepelt reached up and dragged his claws into the stick, shreading it. His claws made deep and long scratch marks.
Jayfeather stared in horror, "You...You ruined it!"
Breezepelt was staring at his claws, "nice and sharp!"
Hollyleaf couldn't hold it in anymore, "Jayfeather! That's not the real stick! Berrynose, Breezepelt, and I came up with a prank! And you fell for it!"
Jayfeather snapped his head toward his sister, "What!" He shrieked.
"I'm sorry, but I had to!"
Jayfeather glared at Hollyleaf, then turned to his half-brother, "I Hate You!"
Then Jayfeather stalked off and sat by the lake. Leafpool hurried over to comfort him.
"Okay! Hollyleaf now you have a question! From Muziccat91!"
She sighed, "What is it?"
"Why can't you break the Warrior code? Why is it so important to you?"
" Well without the Warrior Code, we aren't much better than rouges! I wanted to be the best warrior that I could be, but after the secret of my parents came out and that I was half-clan I realized that the Warrior Code wasn't that important until I killed Ashfur. "
"Oh, well sometimes the rules need to change. After I'm like you! I'm half-clan too. My father was Windclan and my mother was Thunderclan but I was raised as a rogue." I meowed.
" Bluestar! Hurry Quick! It's an emergency! " I called for Bluestar.
Bluestar bonded out of the sky, her blue fur glowing in the setting sun.
"What is it? What's the emergency?" Bluestar gasped.
Firestar padded up to her with Graystipe by his side.
"You know Bluestar, when you were younger you had a sad life. You were always sad and grumpy ," Firestar noticed.
" Yeah! Your really quite Blue! Get it! Blue as in sad! But your fur color is also Blue making it perfect! " Graystripe laughed.
"Yeah! When Tigerstar's treachery was discovered you completely shut down! You were so Blue!" Firestar laughed.
Bluestar sighed, "Lets discuss the meaning of the word emergency shall we?" She growled.
Firestar and Graystripe shared a look, "sorry but we have um...things to do..."
Bluestar bared her teeth at then and climbed back into the sky.
Firestar and Graystripe were dared by Londonvetgirl25 to make a joke about Bluestar always being blue to her face.
"Shouldn't Sandstorm and Tigerstar be back by now?" Tallstar called out.
"Yeah," I meowed, glancing at the sky.
The stars were just beginning to appear.
The leaves on a couple bushes rustled and Hawkfrost, Brokenstar, Tawnypelt, and Lionblaze walked out. Tigerstar and Sandstorm right behind them.
"Well? What happened?" Blackstar asked.
Brokenstar stepped forward, "They shared prey, climbed a tree, raced each other, warmed their pelts on a few flat rocks, shared more prey, and talked."
"Wait... They didn't kiss?" Deadfoot asked.
Brokenstar shook his head, "Nope!"
"They were hoping that Spiritfeather forgot about that part of the dare!" Lionblaze called out.
"Well, since you two didn't kiss, you can both kiss right now!" I meowed happily.
Tigerstar and Sandstorm glared at me before meeting each other's awkward gaze. Sandstorm sighed and stepped forward. Tigerstar went to meet her, their noses clashed painfully. They rubbed noses with each other, both their eyes wide open. The two cats quickly rub noses before Firestar intervened.
"That's enough! Sandstorm come along!" The flame colored tom ordered.
Breezepelt was laughing along with almost every cat. Jayfeather was grinning, showing his needle sharp teeth. Feathertail shot a look of sympathy towards Sandstorm.
I scooted over on the patch of grass I was laying on to make space for Tigerstar.
"Oh yeah Tigerstar! You still have to answer a question from Muziccat91," I told him.
Tigerstar hissed at me, then sighed, "Well it can't be anything worse than what happened today."
"What do you regret the most in your life?"
"Joining this game of Dares," he growled.
I lightly cuffed him, "No! Nothing like that!"
" Oh...hm...well not killing Bluestar? I guess? I don't know! I don't regret things Spirit! You know that! "
I huffed, "Fine! Good enough...I think."
Kesterflight lifted his nose up to the sky, "it's going to rain tonight."
Without saying a word, all the cats huddled together for warmth.
The laughter I was holding back was released.
Tigerstar looked at me with a hurt look.
"I'm sorry," I giggled.
"But the way you to touched noses was so funny! Your noses clashed so hard and you were both just staring at each other awkwardly as you rubbed nose!" I let out a mrrow or laughter.
"I'm glad I could amuse you!" Tigerstar huffed.
He got up from his spot beside me and laid down next to Tawnypelt.
I shrugged Oh well! It doesn't matter anyways!
I closed my eyes and fell asleep, a smile hanging on my lips; the clan cats had no idea what was going to happen next!
Finished!
And Thank you everyone who reviewed!
Keep reviewing and PM me your dares and questions!
The faster you submit things the faster I can update!
A couple things!
1) If you have a dare for me let me know and I might consider it!
2) There is one thing that will keep staying the same through out the story! It might be a nickname, something a cat says all the time, or something eles. Yes there is multiple things that are the same but I am looking for one specific thing! The prize will be announced when someone guess it correctly! So guess away!
Thanks!
