Brightspots padded along the entrance of the camp as she was heading with Featherfur about the next hunt they were going after some nearby mountain goats before they headed south east from their breeding grounds to their Greenleaf home at the plains, a joint of Thunderclan and Windclan territory that lay north from the great swamp. Snowstorm stood by with Frostcloud as they were talking about Tawnypaw's condition.

"You're saying she can't train?" Snowstorm asked.

"Yes I'm being true, she's expecting kits. We didn't get Yewberry to stay away from She cats and we can end up with kittens running all over the camp." Frostcloud mewed as she felt worried about the poor apprentice who wouldn't be getting her warrior ceremony on time. Yewberry was hearing about this as he looked at Frostcloud as she was beginning to panic even though Tawnypaw wasn't her kit.

"The fuck we will!" Yewberry shouted as he was happy about the kits ruining all the lives of Thunderclan. More importantly, it was the kits of the cat he loved so much. He looked out to see Tawnypaw getting out of the apprentice's den. Her yellow legs stretching outward as it was clear her fur was growing darker. She looked at Yewberry and she felt uncomfortable.

"How are you feeling Tawnypaw? Frostcloud asked.

"I feel dizzy." Tawnypaw admitted.

"All queens when expecting kits would always feel like this, so it's best to just ignore it and continue one with your day. I would want to stand over you in case something happens between you and Yewberry." Frostcloud mewed as she wanted to stick up for the apprentice.

"But you're not my mother." Tawnypaw mewed to Frostcloud.

"I know but I don't want you to feel uncomfortable around your clan mates. If anything goes wrong, let me know." Frostcloud mewed as she wanted to support her. Crowstorm soon padded up.

"Ready to go?" Crowstorm mewed as he was asking his apprentice.

"Uhh… sure." Tawnypaw mewed. Her fur sticks out as she was very nervous as she began to go with her mentor. Rosepetal, Yewberry were coming with the two of them as they were heading alongside the side of the camp.

They decided to head down a different side as they were heading along Windclan territory and the great plain as they spotted a herd of mountain goats grazing on sprouting dandelions and grass. They continue to pad along to the desired territory that they wanted to go. The swamp.

The cat's paws sunk into the fresh, moist earth of the swamp. The big was deep enough for elk to cross but no cat would be in the swamp alone. Yewberry and Rosepetal were the only cats to frequently visit the swamp just recently. They were padding along a section of the swamp where many insects crawled under the rocks. The insects where not that nutritious on their own but eating a bunch of them would ensure that many cats would lick the rocks that were swarming with them. But the insects were attracting other suitors as well. A large brown bear was patrol with her two bear cubs that were looking for the same insects. Yewberry had a trick up his paw.

"What are you doing Yewberry?" Crowstorm mewed as he was worried for the young warrior.

"I'm going to get us that bear to eat, we will have fresh kill for days." Yewberry mewed. Everyone except Rosepetal was worried about Yewberry's overconfidence. Cats never attacked a bear nor will that will happen ever, Yewberry was heading straight into a trap. All the cats could do was watch as Yewberry headed into another blundering act.

Yewberry soon padded around as he hid into some bushes. He soon flicked his tail around in the bushes as the bear cubs went up as they were curious about this worm like thing in the bushes. Yewberry soon bursts out of the bushes as he was yowling at the top of his lungs. The bear cubs scattered back a bit startled. Every cat knew if a cat startled the cubs, the mama bear knew she would be super aggressive as she knew she had to defend her cubs. Soon the large brown bear charged out of the vegetation as it roared and heading straight at Yewberry at top speed. Yewberry stood his ground as the giant bear swiped at Yewberry as it sent him flying a few tail lengths as his body was slammed against the tree. The towering beast was heading to him when Rosepetal called out. The bear turned hearing her voice. He began to roar heading to her. Crowstorm and Tawnypaw went in as they dragged Yewberry away from the scene as they all ran from the swamp. It was clear that the clan had intentions of abandoning it in the first place.

Later the four cats went off dragging Yewberry into Shadowstep's den. Yewberry had a large scratch on his left side caused by the bear. Shadowstep looked horrified as he saw Yewberry bleeding all over the moss.

"What happened?" Shadowstep mewed as was trying to treat Yewberry's wound.

"We were in the swamp and Yewberry decided to attack a bear with its cubs and it attacked back knocking him out in one swipe. Rosepetal had to distract the bear while we grabbed him and dragged him back to the den." Crowstorm mewed.

"Is Yewberry going to live?" Rosepetal mewed as her voice trembled with worry.

"We don't know but I'm willing to try the best that I could." Shadowstep mewed. The three cats soon left the den as Rowanstar was waiting for them outside of the den.

"Whose idea was it to go into the swamp and have Yewberry injured?" Rowanstar's voice boomed as he was angry.

"It was Tawnypaw." Rosepetal lied. She wanted to escape from this with no harm done to her but Rowanstar wasn't so keen. He turned his head to Tawnypaw who stood there quivering in fear.

"Tawnypaw, was it your idea to go to the swamp?" Rowanstar asked her wondering if it was really her fault.

"It wasn't my idea since I'm not a warrior but I came with the patrol to go investigate. Rosepetal and Yewberry decided to go to the swamp and we only came along with them. It's a pretty dumb idea to go to the swamp in the first place" Tawnypaw mewed as she shivered over her intimidating leader. Rowanstar subsided as he turned back to Rosepetal.

"So you lied to me. The clans want honest and truthful cats. I have a feeling that you don't fit the needs for a skillful warrior. As punishment I'm making you an apprentice for half a moon. I guess Swiftbreeze didn't train you good enough." Rowanstar mewed. He soon turned away as he went to go speak with Swiftbreeze as Rosepetal turned with fury in her eyes.

"You cost me this apprentice, I'm going to make sure you and Yewberry get together as mates, no excuses, it will be permanent." Rosepetal hissed as she saw that Tawnypaw was threatening her status and how she wanted to run the clan. Rosepetal turned away as she padded off. "I would want to make Thunderclan great but they don't want to listen, I want to make Pebblestar and Ravenstar our mortal enemies and I would want Briarstar on my side." She snickered as she padded off.

That night, Tawnypaw decided to check up on Yewberry who was in the medicine cat's den as she was worried about him. Although she didn't want to be his mate but she didn't want to treat him as an enemy. She peeked in as he was lying on his side.

"You feeling all right Yewberry?" Tawnypaw asked as she had a lemming in her jaws.

"I feel stiff like I am unable to move." Yewberry mewed. It was clear that his gash was a lot bigger and he was weak.

"Yewberry lost a lot of blood but I was able to stabilize him before he went to Starclan. I'm afraid he won't be heading out of the camp for a while until he recovers." Shadowstep mewed. He managed to save him just before he would die from blood loss. Tawnypaw puts down the lemming for him as she looked at the stricken cat.

"Thank you." Yewberry mewed as he was unable to move.

"It's clear he needs his rest. Thank you Tawnypaw." Shadowstep mewed.

"You're welcome." Tawnypaw responded as she padded away to get some rest after spending the afternoon hunting. It was clear that these next couple of moons were going to be a rough ride ahead for her.

Tawnypaw fell asleep in the apprentice's den as she was quite pleased with herself. She soon woke up as she was walking along a snowy plain with no tree in sight. She soon came across a bush as she knew she needed shelter. She peeked inside to see a litter of abandoned kits as she decided to take care of them herself. The tried to keep the squirming kits warm as a voice called out for her.

"The Tawny will bring new life to the clans." The voice called out, Tawnypaw soon woke up as she felt something she never felt before. She looked around seeing neither snow nor bush. She was left there pondering about what this meant.

"What could it mean?" Tawnypaw mewed to herself.
