CHAPTER 3

Frost padded down the ally. He looked up at his brother, Sandy, who was also the leader. They were a clan know to most as Bloodclan. They were very fierce, deadly cats. "Frost I need you to lead a hunting patrol" Sandy mewed. Frost nodded and took Minty and Snipe with him. The patrol sniffed around for food scarps, or if lucky enough, real forest prey. Suddenly Frost saw three rouges with a mouse in their jaws. The rouges noticed them and snarled, "Get off our territory kittypets". Frost laughed and unsheathed his claws. "Bloodclan attack!". Frost leaped at the tabby tom and slashed at his fur, while the other two warriors tussled with the other rouges. The tabby raked his claws across Frost's muzzle and swiped his ears. Frost kicked the tabby to the floor and raised his claws. Frost ripped his claws through the tabby's neck down to his belly. The tabby rouge yowled in agony and went limp. Blood formed around his body. The other two rouges fled in fear. " that will teach them not to mess with us" Minty hissed. Frost nodded and lead the patrol back to there shelter. Frost still needed to adjust to the new shelter, ever since dogs drove them out of there old home they travled far and long to find this new place. "Where is the prey?" Sandy glared at his brother as he padded in empty pawed. "Sorry brother we had to deal with some rouges". "Hmm I guess since it was to defend our new home, I will let it slide this time." "It wont happen again" Frost mewed.

At sky clan camp…

Leafstar yawned and stretched. The patrols had been finished and now the sun was setting. Suddenly Bouncefire and Sharpclaw appeared with two rouges. "Who are they?" Leafstar narrowed her eyes. "They say they have some important information to tell you" Sharpclaw meowed. Leafstar examined the cats and saw they had deep wounds. "Get them to Echosong and have them treated, they will stay here for the night until they are fit to speak". Sharpclaw nodded and led them to the medcine den. What could two rouges have to say? Leafstar shrugged and padded into her den. The moon came up shining its bright rays onto the camp. Leafstar curled up in her nest and drifted into sleep.
