In the Morning…
Yay! I get to update sooner! I'm at the library, so I have computer access!
"I want Owlfeather, Oakpaw, and Whitepelt on patrol. Bring back some freshkill if you can find any. Rubyheart, can you help Branchfur get prepared for the journey?" Rosestar barked out the usual orders. "Dovekit, stay away from those rocks and- Ashclaw!"
"H'llo Rose." The tom purred. "How are the kits?"
"Oh, they're just fine. You missed the beautiful eclipse last night. Where were you? Silvershade's been looking for you!" Rosestar hissed quietly.
"I guess I'd better clear the air." Ashclaw shrugged.
"you smell like something. Owl…?" she guessed.
"I have no idea what you're talking about, I'm sure." Ashclaw licked his paw dismissively. "I think I'll find Streampaw."
Streampaw was his eldest son and Branchfur's apprentice. "Hello son. Journey to the Moonpool? This early?"
"Rosestar believes something has happenend, so we're meeting with Moondust of Stormclan this evening to go to the Moonpool." The spiritual cat meowed.
"Need an escort?" Ashclaw grinned, thinking of the Stormclan cat, but before Streampaw could reply, a commotion broke out near the clan's entrance.
"You frinkin' wet poopers! Curse you all to Hagsmire!" a shrill voice screamed. Ashclaw sprang forward to see what was going on.
"Owlfeather! What happened to this poor bird?" Ashclaw eyed the torn and bloodied Topaz at her claws.
"Owlfeather, ironic." Topaz churred weakly.
"'Tis freshkill. Or atleast it's supposed to be." Oakpaw frowned at the owl.
"Until it started clawing us with those." Whitepelt shook his head at her battleclaws.
"You want another taste, kitty?" Topaz spat, flailing her claws at the cats. Oakpaw hissed and ran to the apprntice's den.
"What are you doing in Moonclan?" Rosestar demanded as she walked up to the enormous owl, her wings now pinned to the ground. Then she cocked her head curiously at the claws. "…and what are those on your talons?"
"Okay lady, these mountains don't belong to you, so this place is just a stupid rock, not 'Moonclan' or what ever. And these babies could rip your throat out, Fluffy." Topaz flexed her battle claws for an example. "So are you just going to stand there all day, or what?"
"How did you… make those 'battle claws?' Rosestar approached the owl. "Let her go."
"What?! How do you know you can trust her?" Shadowfur growled, her yellow eyes glowing intensely.
"Are you defying Rosestar's order?" Snowfur asked, just appearing on the scene.
Topaz ignored them as she stared at Shadowfur. "Yellow eyes…? The fyngrot! Great Glaux, help!!!"
"What in Starclan above are you talking about?!" Mapleleaf growled from the nearby elder's den.
"Are you kitties completely yoiks?! She's like the Moonclan version of a vyrwolf of hagsfeind!"
"…" All the cats stared blankly back at her.
"Let me guess, you don't know what that is either." She sighed. "okay, fine, I wont stop keeping my eyes off of you, 'Shadowfur', cough hagsfeind cough, but I think I might die of infection here, so attention, please!
Whew! That. Took. Forever. Well, I wont write unless I get reviews! Hope ya liked it.
