Softear woke up, she wasn't as angry. Lightears was still sleeping. Better get something to eat. We have to travel through the desert for a little, and most of the creatures won't come out until it's cooler. Softear though. She went to Great River, and scooped up a few fish. Though she had better aim, she still somehow managed to get Lightears on his back.

"What happened?" he shot up. "Eat the fish, we might not eat for a while." Softear mewed. She ate her fish as Lightears slowly ate his. They cleaned up so no one would know they were there. Wow, not as hot as I thought it would be. Softear thought. Lightears didn't seems to like the extreme hotness/warmness of the desert, he would sometime even go into the thin river, which was now a creek. Much of it was dried up, but there was a little water.

"This is beautiful, I haven't seen so many cacti in my life." Softear mewed. "Don't you often see them on the other side of your territory?" Lightears question going through the creek. "No. We will use it to train because of the sand. Sometimes we might even hunt on it, but not often. Often times a cat gets bit by a rattlesnake or something. Sometimes two-legs use them for walking." Softear mewed.

They padded in silence for a little while. It was nice, until when it got to sun high. "We should find shelter, and rest. Then we can start up again." Softear mewed. They found an abounded fox den, conveniently.

They started up again about when the sun was coming down, even though it is going to be more dangerous, it will be cooler. "This is much nicer." Lightears mewed. "I guess." Softear grumbled. She was starting at the sand, it was almost leaf-bear. So many of the trees had lost their leaves and green-cough might be coming. "If you play in the games, how come you came? Fireice, my brother, said he couldn't come because of it." Softear asked. "Well, we have many more players now so we are covered. I'm guessing you don't have as many." Lightears mewed. He is one of the better ones though. Softear thought.

It wasn't before long till trees came. This wasn't a big desert, it was small. But still many could get lost. "It should be another half-moon before we get there. We should rest now." Softear mewed. "How do you know this." Lightears asked. "I have heard stories. In our clan, we hear about the four clans since kithood." Softear mewed. Lightears nodded. He now understood.


This is what is going on in the three clans. Much has changed. I will do these every once in a while :)


Flameteeth

Flameteeth had reported what he saw Dovefang had done, though no cat believed him. Ever since Softear had left, Leafeyes was killed. So was Sweetfang. Grayfish, now Graystar, is the leader of Flowerclan. Shellteeth had became deputy, and Riverrock was some how injured. "Fireice." Flameteeth mewed going up to his older brother. "What is it now?" Fireice asked.

Fireice's playful personality had changed even, since Glowheart's death. Her kits were now being taken care of by Creekstone. Icekit and Thunderkit hadn't changed much though, they are still playful and happy. Though they do get mood-swings when they are around and Glowheart is mentioned. "Your much more serious now, it's scary." Flameteeth commented. Fireice just narrowed his eyes, "Be quiet. You probably blamed Dovefang for killing Glowheart since you don't like Dovefang! You most likely killed her." Fireice growled.

"I did nothing of the sort. Besides, why would I do that? She is and was an awesome mom." Flameteeth mewed. Fireice was still growling. So are the roamers true? Does he like Dovefang? Flameteeth thought. "I know what your thinking and no I don't. I'm not in love anymore, with any she-cat." Fireice mewed.

Fireice

That was a lie, about not being in love with any she-cat anymore. He did still love Silverpaw. She had came to them as a kit this pass half-moon and became an apprentice. Fireice padded away in anger. Why would he kill Glowheart? Was it just out of anger? Fireice looked up into the starry sky. "I hope Softear returns safely." he whispered.


I hoped you enjoyed that. It was fun writing it. And there was no cliff-hanger this time! Sorry for such a short chapter. I will try to make the next one longer, and more interesting. The thing with going back to the three clans will happen every few chapters. (Two? Three? I don't know).
