Okay- lets see what happens next!
Vinepaw and Reedpaw had to go on battle training. They hadn't for awhile now-due to their spontanious dissapearences- and could use the touch up. Badgerclaw and Bluefoot had suggested they battled against eachother. It would give the mentors a change to evaluate them.
Vinepaw and Reedpaw padded slowly behinde their mentors.
"How are going to reveal him?" Vinepaw asked.
Reedpaw flicked his ear. He had thought of another cat suddenly, but he wasn't sure about telling Vinepaw. He'd tell Sparrowpaw later. "Well...aparently blurting it out won't work..."
"Well we need to prove it. We can't justt tell Hawkstar her deputy has murderd her old deputy, a rouge and a few rouge born cats in the other Clans. She'll laugh at us or slice us open right then and there."
Reedpaw looked at his brother. You're so stubborn. "Then how do we tell them, mouse brain?"
Vinepaw neatly avoided a large rock in his path. "Well... maybe we can trick him into it. Telling the Clan, you know?"
Reedpaw must have looked deep in thought, because Vinepaw was staring at him again. Reedpaw looked up. "You know what I don't get? If Vipertail is on the hunt for rouges, then why hasn't he killed Falconkit, Ravenkit and Rosepetal yet."
Vinepaw thought for a moment. "Maybe because they're kits and she's an elder and his formor mentor."
Reedpaw wasn't so sure. Vipertail-aparently- could sink to verry low levels. "We'll see."
--------------------------------------
Sparrowpaw was bored out of her mind. Vipertail's punishment was supossed to end today- he was going to tell her when she was free, and he has disapeared into the forest- but when has Vipertail ever done anything by the rules?
Sparrowpaw went to the elders' den. Maplespots and Nightbreeze looked up.
"Good morning," Maplespots mewoed. Sparrowpaw touched noses with bot she-cats and went to clear out the moss. "What's damp?" she asked.
"Just the moss on Rosepetal's nest." Nightbreeze began to nose the base of her tail.
"Tick?" Sparrowpaw asked depressingly.
Nightbreeze nodded. "But I can get it myself, no need for you to do extra work.
Sparrowpaw had a mouth full of moss and blinked her thanks to the kind elders. She padded out of the camp to dump the moss. A scent surrounded her that made her spine shiver.
"And what are you doing out of camp?"
Sparrowpaw turned to face Vipertail.What she wanted to say was, 'What are you doing out of camp?'
"I'm just doing the elders' chores. I'm going to find more moss for Rosepetal."
Vipertail's eyes held some emotion. It made Sparrowpaw nervous. "I think you'll be going back into the camp. I think you and your brothers are going to make more nasty little rumors about me. I don't think I deserve that, do you?"
Sparrowpaw was carefull not to let her hard stare turn into a glare. She said nothing.
Vipertail tilted his head. "I didn't think so," he meowed coolly.
Sparowpaw began to pad back to the camp. You'll have to tell Rosepetal. His eyes clearly knew what she was thinking. 'Oh I will' flashed in them.
"Oh, and Sparrowpaw?" His voice slid out of his throat. Sparrowpaw turned.
"I wouldn't recomend you telling the Clan about our conversations. You and your brothers are verry attatched to Duskpelt and Dawnbreeze aren't you?"
Sparrowpaw stood wide eyed. Was he really threatening what she thought he was? She turned tail and fled back to the camp.
Oohh what next?? I don't know. smiles give me a day!!
