Chapter 6:
A Bundle of Mystery
Two cats crept along, their shadows outlining against the darkening sky. One, a silver tom, held something small in his teeth. The other, a much bigger brown tabby tom, led the way to the horrid-smelling Thunderpath.
"So we give it to Blackstar?" asked the silver tom through the small bundle in his mouth, pausing to check for monsters as they crossed the Thunderpath.
"Yes, Quickfoot," growled the brown tabby. He chuckled. "He'll be pleased."
Quickfoot nodded as he and the other warrior hurried off of the Thunderpath.
"But Thicketclaw," mumbled Quickfoot through the small something in his mouth, "Are you sure Blackstar's plan will work?"
"Do you question our leader?" Thicketclaw snapped.
Quickfoot went faster, muttering, "No."
"Thought so." snarled Thicketclaw.
The two warriors hurried across the terrain, avoiding trees, and heading straight for the ShadowClan camp.
Russetfur appeared by the entrance. "I see you were successful," she meowed, obviously pleased.
Quickfoot and Thicketclaw dipped their heads respectfully to the ShadowClan deputy.
"The plan has been set," meowed Thicketclaw.
Russetfur nodded, eyeing the bundle in Quickfoot's teeth.
"Come on," she said, glancing around, "I'll take that."
Quickfoot dropped his bundle on the marshy ground, and Russetfur picked it up and padded into the camp. Thicketclaw and Quickfoot followed not far behind the she-cat.
Eyes from every ShadowClan cat in the camp stared at the small bundle in Russetfur's mouth. They muttered curious and excited mews to each other as Russetfur left Thicketclaw and Quickfoot by the entrance to Blackstar's den. The two warriors left, and Russetfur went in.
"Do you have the kit?" Blackstar meowed.
"Yes,"
"Are you sure it's Firestar's?"
"We're postive."
"Good."
