Silverpaw's POV

I ran, the crumpled bottle of cola shaking in my cold hands. Running. From what, I don't know, but I wasn't stopping to find out. The leaves rustled behind me and I picked up my pace. Was it Dad? If it was, I was in MAJOR trouble. My satchel swung and hit me in the leg. Stupid thing. I kept running. No one could know where I'd been. Dad had already grounded me once for sneaking off to go there. I had skipped out on school already to go there. Sixteen times to be exact. Dad hadn't noticed because he was too busy dealing with Lightningpaw and Whisperpaw, who snuck off to see each other at the river café. I needed to be home. If I got in trouble again, Dad will kill me. Bein so late made my spine tingle but seeing him was something I had to do.

"STOP!" The figure called from behind me and I picked up the pace again. My leg still hurt from something I can't remember.

"WHY SHOULD I?" I called back.

"YOU FORGOT YOUR TEQUILA!" I stopped. It was LIONPAW. I collapsed in a heap on the ground while he caught up.

"Don't scare me like that. I thought you where Dad." I sighed and sat up, my white dress making a ring around me and my tail poking out from underneath.

"Oh, Onestar?"

"Yes."

"I made sure he wouldn't make it home in time."

"How?"

"Tigerpaw and Lunapaw duct taped him to the chair."

"How'd they manage to do that?"

"Tranquilizer."

"WHERE THE HELL DID THEY GET ONE OF THOSE?"

"Dustypaw sells them for 10 bucks in the court yard."

"Don't the teachers notice?"

"She also sells tequilas."

"And?"

"Teacher's discount."

"Should've guessed Tawnypelt and Stormfur's daughter would be smart enough to think of that." We sat talking and drinking tequilas for a while and I enjoyed watching the sun rise.

"Beep beep beep." Lionpaw picked up his phone. "Hello...Why don't you just shoot him with another tranquilizer then?...Buy some more….Get some from the teachers….Okay. Bye." He hung up and slapped the cell phone shut.

"Tigerpaw?"

"Yeh. It's all handled now though."

"Good. Anyway. I've gotta go." I kissed him on the cheek and stood. "I'll see you later tonight at the gathering."

"Alright. I gotta go stop Crowfeather sneaking into my sister's room again. See ya!" I watched him go and I felt happy Mum let Crowfeather go to ThunderClan. I sighed and ran home, glad to have the sun finally up.

"I'm home Mum!" I yelled as I dumped my backpack on the kitchen bench.

"Good! I have something for you to go and see ThunderClan about." She called back. Yes! Going to see Lionpaw! Being the leader's daughter, we got our own house to share between us.

"What is it?"

"I need you to go and help get your half-brother out of Featherpaw's window. He won't let go."

I tried not to laugh my head off, but it didn't work. I collapsed on the floor, rolling around and clasping my sides as I laughed. "Are you serious?"

"Yes I am serious." My Mum, Ashfoot, walked in with a serious face but I could see she was laughing inside. "No go and see that boyfriend of yours."

I jumped up alarmed. "How do you know about Lionpaw?"

"You told me, remember?"

"Oh. Right." I ran out of the house before things got too awkward and smiled happily at the thought of seeing Lionpaw again.

When I got to the ThunderClan camp, Brightheart had a black eye, Cloudtail was unconscious, Brambleclaw was trying to bite his foot to make the pain stop and Squirrelflight looked like she had had fifty shots. "What happened here?"

Squirrelflight stumbled over and put a hand on my shoulder. "A giant purple monkey flew down on a unicorn and punched Brightheart in the eye. Then he used his magical powers to make Brambleclaw ugly enough to knock out the hottest dude in the world and then he got tequila and shoved it down my throat."

I guessed "the hottest dude in the world" was Cloudtail and that Squirrelflight obviously had had fifty shots. Squirrelflight hiccupped and laughed.

"I like rainbows."

"Okay…" I then ran off to find Lionpaw.
