Chapter 6

And I'm back! what did ya think of the last chapter?

Oh! and by the way!! I'm bringing in one of the clans, if you've read Firestar's Quest, Then you'll know them, if You haven't, GO READ IT! LOL

"Hmmmmm...." Hawkfur sighed, laying on a squishy moss rock."How to explain this to Shadowface, how to explain..."

"Explain what?" asked a cat, a cat that Hawk hadn't met, yet she looked so familiar.

"It's a long story. Who are you?" Hawk asked, her head was spinning. So many new cats, new names to memorize...

"My name is Moon that Shines Through Clouds." the cat said, dipping her head respectfully. "I'm from the mountains."

"Really?" Hawkfur asked. She wanted to say more but Shadowface walked in.

"I found him!" Barkkit said, jumping up and down.

"Thank you Barkkit. You can go now." Hawkfur said.

"Okay." He said.

"I'd better go hunting." Moon that Shines Through Clouds said, and without a word, she whirled around and was gone.

"What is it Hawkfur?" Shadowface asked.

"Well, Shadowface... I Figured that if I am going to live here, I might as well tell you my story." Hawkfur sighed, settling into her squishy moss rock.

"Well, I would like to hear your story." Shadowface said thoughtfully, settling into a Squishy moss rock next to Hawk, he looked like he wanted to ask Hawk something

"Is there anything important you want to tell me?" Hawkfur asked Shadowface.

" No no... Please, just... go on..." he said, looking like he had just passed gas while sitting Vigil for an elder.

"Alright then, but before I tell you my story, You must understand that where I come from, things are different, there are no monsters, no twolegs, no tiny dogs carried around by twolegs, we Do have dogs, but they're MUCH bigger than most dogs here..." Hawkfur shivered, remembering the first time she'd seen a wolf, "They're many times as vicious as the dogs here."

"I've heard of this place." Shadowface said, stretching on his mossrock. "Moon That Shines Through Clouds has told me about it...ummm....." Shadowface twitched his tail nervously, "Was she in your clan?"

"No, She is from the Tribe of Falling Water." Hawkfur explained,suddenly realizing why Moon That Shines Through cloud was so familiar looking, "They were our neighbors. Anyway, it started back when I was a kit..."

"Shadowface! Shadowface!" Yowled Eddy, a short-haired, copper eyed, cinnamon tabby tom with a white face, as he ran into the mossrock den.

"What is it Eddy!?!" Shadowface asked, his yellow pelt ruffled.

"Vsitors!" Eddy stammered.

"Who?!" Shadowface forgot about Hawkfur's tale for a bit, and turned all his attention to Eddy.

"Skyclan..." Eddy said as another cat, who Hawk recognized as Moon That Shines Through Clouds, padded calmly up behind him.

"They've come seeking herbs and a favor Shadowface, not war." She said calmly as another cat, a she cat heavy with kits, walked up behind her. "They've asked a place to stay for a day or two and, " Moon indicated the she cat behind her. "they picked up a Loner on the way. As you can see she's very close to kitting." The she cat sat down and calmly began to groom herself. "Leafstar says that Skyclan cannot feed any more cats than they have, and-" Moon was cut off by Leafstar herself.

"And I'd much appreciate it if you took her in." She said to Shadowface.

"I would love too take her in Leafstar, we could always use an extra cat or two." Shadowface said, facing the Skyclan leader, who was a hair shorter than him.

"I appreciate your kindness Shadowface." Leafstar said, then she noticed Hawkfur. "Oh, I didn't know you had a mate." She said.

"Wel... Ermm.... She's not exactly my-" Shadowface began, just to be cut off by Hawkfur.

"I'm not his mate!" Hawkfur hissed indignantly.

"My apologies....miss....." Leafstar looked slightly embarrassed but highly amused.

"Hawkfur." Shadowface said.

"Miss Hawkfur, my apologies." she said, cocking her head to the side thoughtfully. "Although, I must say.... you two WOULD be an adorable couple."

"Ermmmm....."Shadowface blushed, and Hawkfur put two and two together in her mind.

"Leafstar, I'd hate to interrupt, but may I speak to Shadowface alone for a bit?" Hawkfur asked her, The she cats' eyes met and a silent understanding passed between them.

"I Don't mind." said Leafstar.

"Oh no...." Shadowface groaned.

"Busted!" Kenny laughed.

"kenny! Come here so I can get you clean!" Sunflower yowled at her son.

"Aww! I was gonna watch Shadowface get beat up by a she cat!" Kenny wailed, padding to his mom's side.

"Hey Shadow! If she kills you, do I get the mossrock den!?!" Eddy called jokingly.

"Shut up Edd."Shadowface hissed.

"Shadowface... " Hawkfur said, leading him into another area of the dwelling, a den with a large white basin.(AKA Bathroom)

"What is it?" he asked when they were alone, even though he knew what she was going to say.

"YOU WERE GOING TO ASK ME TO BE YOUR MATE!?!!?! I'VE BEEN HEAR FOR LESS THAN A DAY, AND YOU ARE TRYING TO TAKE ME AS A MATE?!?!!!" Hawkfur hissed at him.

"Well.... I.....uhhhhhh...sorta..."Shadowface blushed a deep pink. "uhh.... maybe I-" Hawkfur didn't give him a chance to speak.

"I'm not sure if your mother is still alive, but if she is, I'm willing to bet that if I told her, she would either laugh at you or beat your pelt off!" Hawkfur half growled and half laughed.

"This is funnier than elders arguing over what green tastes like!" Leafstar whispered to Eddy, who was an the verge of laughing at Hawkfur.

"Oi! Don't laugh at 'er Eddy... Trust me... her claws is even sharper than her tongue!" Donny whispered to Eddy in warning. "She got Icenose earlier today! and it wasn't pretty!" Eddy's eyes went wide, and he shut up. Icenose was the fiercest cat in their group, the best fighter they had. She'd never lost a fight in front of them.

LOL, I Just love Kenny! He's modeled after my Siamese kitten, Joey...
