That was 6 moons ago.
Stormtuft sat in ThunderClan camp, grooming his paw and drawing it over his ear quietly.
Cloudfur's body had been discovered 1 day ago and they dismissed it as 'a fox'. The deputy, Blazestep was sending out extra patrols to watch out for the murderer.
Little did he know, the murderer was right infront of him, being ignored.
He had been sent on a patrol with Wildheart and Lizardface. Stormtuft padded trough the forest, stopping at the river and marking his territory near it. Wildheart's brown pelt was messy as always, Lizardface's black and gray pelt shone in the sunlight, when she slipped on a glob of mud.
Splash.
Lizardface had fallen into the river, the current dragging her into the deep lake. Wildheart leaped in, risking her life for the elderly she. Stormtuft watched with no concern, smirking. A brown shape of a cat was struggling to get to the shore. The gray tom just watched, smirking. He padded off, leaving the two to die.
He ruffled up his fur and clawed his chest, running back to ThunderClan. "Blazestep!" Stormtuft yowled, zipping trough the tunnel of twigs. He ran up to Blazestep. "I escaped ShadowClan! They got Lizardface and Wildheart!" Blazestep gasped. "Those piece of fox-dung... Lead me to them."
Stormtuft nodded and ran into WindClan territory.
"Wait... Stormtuft..."
Slash.
Blazestep's cheek was clawed as he yowled for help. Stormtuft dug his teeth into Blazestep's throat as he felt legs kicking his belly. He was kicked off and pinned as Blazestep clawed Stormtuft's shoulder. Stormtuft saw the opportunity. He knocked Blazestep off and clawed his belly.
Blazestep was weakened.
Stormtuft bit into his neck until he felt warm blood dripping down his muzzle.
He rubbed the body in WindClan scent and padded back to camp, smirking.
-
"The new deputy will be...
Stormtuft."
