"Is there anyway I can help?" Snowpaw asked Rainpetal, the medicine cat. Snowpaw and Mistpaw had wanted to help any way they can. The clan deputy is injured, the clan leader is expecting kits and their own sister was injured as well!
It had been a few days since the attack and the two weren't much better or much worse.
"Snowpaw can go hunt for them and Mistpaw can get them a drink." Answered the medicine cat. Both apprentices ran off right away. Barkflower hadn't seemed to mind. She was the oly warrior with medicine skills, so she loved to help treat the cat she raised. Snowpaw had recently learned that Barkflower and Blackfur are litter mates.
Snowpaw kept walking and walking until she had found a fish in the river. Pebbleheart offered to come with.
"I'll get the fish. You go deeper and see if you can find anything else." Pebbleheart told Snowpaw.
"Alright," Snowpaw meowed and ran in deeper into their territory adn she stopped at Sunningrocks, which was ThunderClan for now.
A golden apprentice was on the rocks now and saw Snowpaw on her side of the rocks. He just hissed at her and meowed, "Don't even think on coming across. We don't want you filthy RiverClan paws on these rocks!" And then he bounded back into the forest.
"That stupid arrogant apprentice," Snowpaw muttered under her breath.
She found a water vole and caught it the way Pounceclaw had taught her a couple days ago. The first day he had been her temporary mentor. He was even in charge of the Clan until Blackfur recovers. If he recovers.
Snowpaw caught up with Pebbleheart and both cats went back to camp and found every cat filled with sadness and grief.
"What happened?!" Qustioned every cat.
"Blackfur a-and C-Cl-Cloudpaw are dead," Mewed Mistpaw. Barkflower went over to her apprentice adn comforted her apprentice.
"But there's more bad news," Hawkpelt told her, "Bramblestar kitted four kits and three of them are dead. The one is very weak and so is Bramblestar."
It is true that Bramblestar is the mother of Barkflower and Blackfur, and it shows that she is too old for kitting. Snowpaw heard that she only had one life left. What will happen to this clan?
Now, at Moonhigh, Bramblestar had regained her strength and called for a clan meeting, "All cats who can catch their own prey gather around. It's time to call for the next deputy."
Once all cats gathered Bramblestar continued, "I say these words before the body of Blckfur, so he must hear and approve my choice. Hawkpelt will be the new deputy of RiverClan. And one of our apprentces had lost her mentor. Pounceclaw shall continue Snowpaw's training."
No cat had cheered for either of the toms. The were still filled with grief for teir deputy. All was silent, so Snowpaw decided to go and rest for the night. Her sister had followed her in. Both cats slept next to each other. It will be lonely without their sister.
