Suntalon: Okay I know I said that I was going to post the chapter earlier, but I got caught up with school, and didn't have time, but here is the next chapter!
Chapter 10
Leafpool awoke in Starclan. Please let them accept me even though I have broken the code. Then a pretty tabby appeared in front of her. "Spottedleaf" Leafpool mewed excitedly. "My dear I am sorry to see you come here uncalled." Spottedleaf sighed and her eyes were full of pure sorrow. Leafpool asked "What's wrong? If it is my time to join Starclan I am ready."
Spottedleaf look Leafpool straight in the eye and said "First there is something I want you to do."
Lionblaze watched mournfully as his clanmates carried Leafpool's body back into camp. Lionblaze watched everyone gather soulfully. Sandstorm had buried her nose in her daughter's fur, Squirrelflight lay next to Brambleclaw who was comforting her, and Firestar stood on the Highrock, his eyes gaunt with sorrow.
Lionblaze padded over to his Mother and sat down next to Sandstorm.
Suddenly a yowl sounded from the gorse barrier. Lionblaze looked up to see his blind brother, eyes wide with shock come rushing over, with Briarlight behind him.
Jayfeather padded into the tunnel, and felt waves of sorrow coming off of everyone, and then he sensed it: Leafpool unmoving. Dropping the herbs Jayfeather raced forwards and buried his nose in his fur, and began to mew like a lost kit "No don't leave me, I still need you to teach herbs please don't go."
Jayfeather knew it was too late for any herbs to save her, so Jayfeather just lie there mournfully, and unaware he fell into a deep sleep.
Jayfeather awoke and blinked his sleep seeing eyes, and looked around. Oh great what does Starclan want now? I have enough problems. Then out of the bushes came a light brown tabby, Leafpool. Jayfeather rushed forwards and rub against her. Leafpool purred and said "I'm sorry for all the pain I caused you, Lionblaze, and Hollyleaf."
Jayfeather didn't think, but just let his mind talk "We all know that it was you, who suffered the most, and Hollyleaf couldn't bare the pressure of knowing, but we Love you." Leafpool backed away and began to fade, but before leaving she mewed "remember I will always be with you, and tell Squirrelflight, Lionblaze, Sandstorm, and Firestar, that I love and will miss them, but not to fret."
With that Jayfeather awoke into his unseeing eyes as always. Jayfeather could sense Lionblaze, Squirrelflight, Sandstorm and Firestar, all sitting near each other.
Jayfeather padded over to them and repeated what Leafpool had said. Firestar stared at him and mewed "Leafpool should be proud of you, because you have turned out to be a great medicine cat."
Jayfeather's pelt warmed at Firestar's praise. Jayfeather just dipped his head and padded towards the medicine cat den, never feeling more alone.
Dovewing padded into camp to see everyone surrounding a cat. Dovewing could smell the stench of death in the air, and mixed with the taint of herbs. Oh no not Jayfeather! Dovewing looked at the body, and it was Leafpool. Dovewing felt like someone had hit her.
She staggered to the side and sat down. Everywhere cats were comforting one another. Dovewing felt alone, Firestar and Sandstorm, Brambleclaw and Squirrelflight, Birchfall and Whitewing, but out of the crowd of misery came her sister, Ivyclaw.
-A few hours later-
Ivyclaw licked her sister comfortingly and then headed into the warrior's den to rest for the night. Dovewing was still shocked that a Windclan warrior would do such a thing.
Earlier that day Firestar had called a meeting and Dustpelt and Spiderleg told the story. Firestar was completely angry, and he said a patrol would be sent out the next morning to visit Onestar. Dovewing lay mournfully, but couldn't sleep, so she padded out of camp, murmuring an excuse.
Dovewing just let her paws carry her around the forest. Eventually Dovewing sat down and consumed by her thoughts didn't notice sleep come.
Ivyclaw felt sorry for her sister, after all Leafpool was her sister's mentor's mother. Ivyclaw didn't feel as much sorrow though, because she had heard about Leafpool having kits with another Windclan cat, which was breaking the warrior code.
Ivyclaw gave her sister one last comforting lick, and then headed off to the warrior's den.
When Ivyclaw awoke she was in the dark forest, and found herself face to face with Snowtuft, a Shadowclan cat who was also part of the Dark Forest. "Wake up" he hissed at her. Ivyclaw hissed and sat up. Snowtuft was in an apparent hurry and mewed "Come on she's here, finally here; we don't want to miss her come on!" Ivyclaw followed, but was confused at who this 'she' was.
Ivyclaw followed Snowtuft deeper into any part of the Dark Forest where she had never been, but Snowtuft knew his way around like it was no problem.
Ivyclaw raced through the bushes after Snowtuft, and almost ran into him, as she came into a clearing with a mound of rocks in the center. Ivyclaw stared in horror at how many cats were in the clearing, it was twice the amount of cats then there are in Thunderclan!
Ivyclaw heard cat murmuring to one another, she even recognized some. Hawkfrost, Tigerstar, Brockentail. Plus some ones she had seen at live gatherings in the four clans like: Harewing of Windclan, Breezepelt, Fishpaw of Riverclan, lots of Shadowclan cats, but not one from Thunderclan except for herself.
A hush fell over the mass of cats as Tigerstar bounded up onto the mound of rocks, which was called 'Lump Mound.' Tigerstar's voice rang loud across the clearing "today is a great day today our leader has come from the depths of darkness, and the blackness of hate."
Tigerstar dipped his head and out of nowhere appeared a thin, black with green eyes, she- cat. "Welcome my friends, I am your knew leader I am Hollyleaf!"
Ivyclaw stared in horror at Hollyleaf. How could she be leader if she doesn't even have nine lives? As if Hollyleaf had read her thoughts she hissed to Hawkfrost "bring out the prisoners!"
Suntalon: OMS (oh my Starclan) what the heck! Hollyleaf! OMS!
-Spoiler-
There are nine prisoners, and how lives does a leader have?
If you think that you know about the Spoiler tell me in a review PLEASE! Or you will never find out, because I'll never put up another chapter!
