"I caught it!" Crypaw exclaimed with joy prancing around with he limp mouse in his jaw.
"Good, now do you think you can be quiet so we might have a chance to catch something to?" Snowear snapped at the younger cat.
"Sorry." Crypaw mumbled flattening her ears to her head. Snowear just grumbled something along the lines of 'The preys already gone'.
"Good job." I flicked Crypaw's ear smiling down at her. Crypaw was a good fighter but her hunting was another story. She didn't pick it up as fast as most cats do but she was starting to get the hang of it.
"Thanks." She purred.
I had been released from the medicine cat's den today after three days of being cooped up there. I was thrown on a hunting patrol with Snowear and Crypaw and after this Crypaw and I were going to go practice fighting moves. Wildflare's cuts were slightly deeper then mine so he was still stuck in the den.
"Do you think Darkclan will attack again?" Crypaw murmured to me scared.
I sighed and licked her ears carefully. "I hope not.." I sighed to her. Most likely we would be attacked before the next moon. It's just how it was between these two clans sadly.
"I hope they don't either... they're scary." She mumbled looking at the ground.
"I know." I told her pushing her side gently.
"Could you give that to Petalwhisker? She's going to be kitting soon and I want her strong." Scorchclaw asked me as soon as I padded into camp. I nodded the thrush in my mouth bobbing along with my head.
I padded over to the nursery that had been brimming with kits lately. Six kits, three queens and more kits on the way was a lot for our nursery. But we always liked a lot of kits because there was always the chance that some would be stolen before they were old enough to train.
"Is that for us?" Bearkit asked jumping in excitement once he saw me and the bird. My siblings were almost old enough to eat solid food.
"Sorry, it's for Petalwhisker." I mumbled through the feathers.
The said Ginger cat poked her head up before padding over to me, or well wobbling over to me. Her belly was huge.
"Thanks." she purred taking the bird from me.
I nodded and she smiled taking a bite. "How many kits do you think you'll have?" I asked quietly.
"I'm not sure." She said between two bites. "Probably a lot for as much as they kick." She laughed wrapping her tail around her kits.
"I bet they'll be cute." I purred sitting down.
"One day you'll have kits of your own." She told me smiling up at me.
I hoped she was right. I'd always wanted kits. I always wanted the experience of little ones depending on you.
"One day will come sooner then you think." My mother purred licking my ears. I smiled back at her.
"Play with us?" Tansykit asked sitting in front of me.
"Sure." I laughed and let them attack my tail.
Dreamstorm's whiskers twitched in amusement as she watched us play.
After many moments of them jumping at my tail I sighed and said. "Sorry guys, I have to go practice with Crypaw."
They all pouted before brightening up. "Can we go!" Ivorykit asked looking up at me with wide blue eyes.
"Kits." Dreamstorm warned.
"We know." They grumbled together before walking over to their mother with their tails dragging in the ground.
I laughed as I walked out of the den. "Crypaw." I called over to her. She bounded over to me excitedly.
"Ready?" I asked.
"Ready!"
I lead her to the training clearing.
Clearsky, Hawkpaw, Crypaw, and I were currently on a border patrol.
"Do you think Darkclan will be potroling their borders?" Crypaw asked in a small voice looking up at me.
"If they do I'll get them for you." Hawkpaw purred to her.
"I'm sure they won't be there." I told her while giving her ears a comforting lick.
"I hope not." She whispered.
We kept padding along until we finally came up to the Darkclan border. We padded along talking softly and renewing out scent markers every now and then.
"What do we have here?" I sinister voice came from the trees on the opposite side of the border. Eight cats glided out of the trees and into our view.
"What are you doing here? Clearsky hissed.
"Waiting for Duskclan." The main brown tom who'd talked before answered. Before Clearsky could say a word the cat lunged towards us.
"Go get help." I hissed to a frozen Crypaw as I pushed her in the opposite direction. She nodded briefly before running off.
I lunged at the first cat I saw. I slammed my body into hers and flung her to her side. She stood up and ran her claws down my flank. I hissed in pain before swinging my paw at her ear, drawing blood.
"Piece of mouse-dung." The she-cat growled before lunging at me again.
Pain erupted inside of me as I felt a new set of teeth bite into my side. I growled as I attacked both the she-cat and the new tom but soon they had be pressed against the ground nipping and clawing at me.
I felt like I was drowning in blood and pain when suddenly the tom and she-cat was pulled off of me. I looked up to see Ripplestream attacking the she-cat and Wildflare clawing at the tom. I lunched up and into Clearsky's battle with a tabby tom.
(WildFlare's P.O.V)
I growled to myself as I saw Scarheart cross the clearing to the elder's den. Gingerrose followed my gaze and then flicked my ear with her tail with a disappointed look.
"Don't growl, he's an elder who should be respected." She sighed to me.
"I'll never respect him." I spat as I looked at her.
She frowned. "You will though." She said softly.
Before I could reply Crypaw rushed into the camp at full speed with a look of panic in her eyes. Every cat turned to her as she yelled.
"Battlestar!" She yelled looking around franticly.
"Yes!?" Battlestar said as he came towards her. "What is it?"
"Darkclan are attacking the border potrol!" She whimpered. I growled raised in my chest at her words.
"We're outnumber by eight." She whimpered again.
"Ripplestream, Wildflare, Gingerrose, Lionroar, Amberblossom, Bumblesoul, Icefur, and Honeychipper go help them." Battlestar yowled at us and we ran off out of camp.
So kind of everywhere and not exactly entertaining and kind of boring but I hope you enjoyed it? I know I have terrible grammer on here but that's because my word program I write these on don't have spell check so I miss a lot of things. And I know I've been gone for a while but hope this makes it up to you guys? I got really bad writers blok on this chapter. Anyway I always ask questions at the end and today won't be any different so why do you guys think Wildflare hates Scarheart so much? Why do you think he's so quiet now? Who do you think Hopebattle will fall for? And for the fun of it who here hunts?
