Chapter 3: Gone

Duncan P.O.V

11:30 am

Sunlight shone through the windows of the studio, giving everything a golden glow. A black tom cat with an unusual green stripe down his back sat on an old run-down couch, blue eyes glued to the flat screen.

"Hey, Dunc." A black she-cat with teal streaks meowed, plopping down next to him. "Hey, Gwen." Duncan meowed. "Did you hear that storm last night? It was brutal." Gwen nodded. "Yeah, I heard that it almost destroyed the nearby town." "Sweet!" Duncan replied. They both sat quietly, watching Stoked on the flat screen TV.

"That dude is so stupid." Gwen meowed flicking her tail, as Reef struck out with yet another girl. "Why doesn't he just leave her alone? She already said no." Duncan looked at his girlfriend. "Because he knows she wants him, she's just denying it." He meowed. Gwen gave him a confused look. "So? He shouldn't waste his time with a girl who says she doesn't like him. Its stupid." Duncan winced. He didn't mean to but still.

"Duncan! Gwen!"

Both cats turned around to see a sandy colored she-cat with hazel eyes jump on the back of the couch. "Yeah Bridge?" Gwen meowed curiously. "Have either of guys seen Courtney around? I've been looking for her all morning and she's not in her room." Bridgette asked worried. "Nope, haven't seen her." Duncan replied, his attention back on the TV screen.

"I should've of known you wouldn't care, Duncan." Bridgette scoffed. Duncan rolled his eyes. 'Why should I care where Miss CIT is?' He growled to himself. Gwen flicked his shoulder with her tail. "Anyway, did you check the mess hall?" Gwen suggested. Duncan gave her a look. 'Whats with the concern?' He thought.

"No, thats where I was headed." Bridgette sighed. The sandy cat jumped down and walked off in the direction of the mess hall. "Thanks for your help!" She called over her shoulder. "No problem!" Gwen called back. She then gave him a hard look. "Why were you so rude to her?" Duncan twitched his ear. "How am I supposed to know where Princess is?" He meowed. 'Why the hell did just I call her that?' "Well I don't know but you could of at least of been nice." She snapped. "Whatever." He growled.

"Hey guys!"

The two black felines looked over to see a skinny brown tom with turquoise eyes. "What Cody?" Gwen growled irritably. "Hey, for once I'm not here to hit on you, I was just wondering if you know where Trent is." Cody asked. "Why do you care where Elvis is?" Duncan growled.

"He said he was going to help me with my guitar skills." Cody meowed, oblivious of Duncan's hostility. "Well we haven't seen him." Duncan growled again, annoyed. Gwen's ears perked up. "Maybe he's with Courtney. Bridgette said she couldn't find her either."

"Yeah ok, I'll keep looking. See you later." Cody meowed as he walked away. "See ya." Gwen meowed, giving him a weak wave of her tail.

"Hm, I wonder where they are." She meowed. "I have no idea, probably whining on their PDA to their lawyers or writing sappy love songs." Duncan replied. "Yeah, you're probably right." Gwen sighed "And Trent's songs are not that sappy." She meowed. "Uh yeah they are." Duncan meowed back playfully. Gwen rolled her eyes. "Whatever."

7:30 pm

Later that evening, Duncan and Gwen were walking down the hall that led to the girls bedrooms. Suddenly, Bridgette and another golden tom cat, Geoff, ran up to them.

"Oh thank god! Please tell me you've seen Courtney! We can't find her anywhere!" Bridgette asked desperately, her eyes wild. "No sorry, we haven't seen her all day." Gwen meowed. "Oh, Geoff! Where could she be! I'm so worried!" Bridgette wailed, burying her face in his neck.

" Shhh, its ok Bridge. We'll find her. Don't worry." Geoff meowed, wrapping his tail around her shoulders. "Well, where have who looked?" Duncan asked. 'Why do I care so much?' "W-We checked h-her room, the mess hall, t-the c-c-common room, and o-over half the forest and we can't find her!" Bridgette whimpered.

"Let's check her room again, there might be a clue or something that can tell us were she is." Duncan suggested. "Yeah, I think we should check Trent's room. Cody was looking for him earlier." Gwen meowed. Bridgette raised her head. "Alright, Geoff you and Gwen check Trent's room. Me and Duncan will check Courtney's room." She stated.

Gwen and Geoff walked off towards Trent's room while Duncan and Bridgette went towards Courtney's. "Duncan, I'm really worried about her! What if something horrible happened!" Bridgette wailed. "Jeez, chill out Bridge, Princess can take care of herself." Duncan meowed. 'Again with that name!' Duncan growled to himself.

A few minutes later they arrived at Courtney's door. Bridgette raised up on her hind legs and grabbed the door knob in her paws. "Crap its locked." She hissed. "Step aside and let a real criminal show you how its done." Duncan chuckled pushing Bridgette to the side. He quickly stuck his claw in the key hole and flicked his wrist. The door unlocked instantly. Bridgette pushed her way inside the room.

"Courtney!" She called out hopefully. The room remained silent. "She's not here!" Bridgette wailed pitifully. 'No chiz Sherlock!' Duncan held his tongue and rolled his eyes. "Hey look!" Bridgette called sticking her head under the bed. She came out with a shiny square thing in her mouth. She spat it out on the floor.

"Its Courtney's PDA!" Bridgette exclaimed. "Wow she never goes anywhere without that thing." Duncan meowed, starting to get a little concerned. Bridgette whined a little before jumping up on Courtney's desk chair. "Duncan..." She called nervously. He hopped up next to her. "Whats the big..." He meowed before trailing off. There sitting on Courtney's desk was the little wooden skull he gave three summers ago with a note attached.

"Look what the note says." Bridgette meowed. Duncan leaned closer to the note.

'I'm done with this place. Good riddance.' was written in Courtney's curvy handwriting.(A.N. In my world cats can write.) "Duncan, she ran away!" Bridgette wailed again. A thorn of sorrow hit Duncan's heart. 'What? She left? No!'

Just then Geoff and Gwen burst into the room. They both looked panicked.

"Guys, what wrong?" Bridgette asked. "Its Trent! He ran away!" Gwen exclaimed. "Really? Courtney ran away too!" Bridgette meowed rather loudly. "What! She did?" Geoff asked. "Yeah didn't you hear her?" Duncan growled. "Trent must be with Courtney!" Bridgette exclaimed.

A wave of jealousy came over Duncan. 'Why would Princess run away with Elvis? There is no way he can protect her! I would've gone with her!' Duncan froze inside. 'What? Psh, no I wouldn't, and why do I care that she's with him anyway?'

Duncan shot a glance at Gwen. He could tell that she was bristling. 'Are you jealous?' he wondered.

"Well, where could they have gone?" Bridgette asked. Duncan, determined to prove he wasn't jealous, replied "Why should we care? If they're gone, they're gone. It was their decision, so why look for them?" Bridgette gasped. "They are our friends! What if something horrible has happened to them!" Duncan felt irritation growing. "Friends? Look, Courtney and Trent might your friends and you care about them, but me? I couldn't care less about those two worthless flea bags!" Duncan snarled baring his teeth.

'Who are you trying to convince? Them or yourself?' His inner voice meowed calmly. 'Shut it!' He innerly snarled.

He heard Gwen and Geoff gasp at his outburst. Bridgette's eyes narrowed into slits as she spoke "You know what? You might not care about Courtney but she sure as hell cared about you! You don't know how many times she's cried over you! You don't know how much she wishes she could take everything back!" Bridgette's voice was low and cold.

'Does Courtney really still care about me? Argg! Why do I care!'

Duncan just stood there, staring at a shocked Geoff and Gwen and a seriously pissed off Bridgette.

"Thats what I thought." Bridgette growled after a few moments. She jumped off the desk chair and stormed out of the room.

"Dude, seriously not cool." Geoff meowed before following Bridgette out.

Duncan turned to Gwen who had been silent the whole time. Gwen just looked at him, her light onyx eyes filled with disappointment and a hint of fear, and shook her head. The black she-cat turned away.

"Gwen wait!" Duncan called out, but she was already out the door. "God damn it!" He hissed lashing his black and green tail. He wished Courtney was here. Not cause he missed her, but to blame her for making everyone turn against him.

He jumped on the messy bed and dug his claws into the fabric. Duncan ripped and tore the sheets to shreds.

Yes, he wanted Courtney back. But Courtney wasn't coming back. Courtney was gone.

A.N.: Wow that was long. Well, maybe not to you but to me. This chapter is just how I think Duncan would react to Courtney leaving. Sorry if Duncan seemed a little out of character. Writing Duncan and Bridgette's fight was really fun. The next chapter is probably just going to be about Trent and Courtney traveling to Bloodclan territory, except they don't know about Bloodclan yet. Anyway, review!
