Sorry about such a long time of no writing! I was busy with school. Good news is that I am finally on vacation though! If every day is like today though, I will never be able to write again. I will try to update again next week though, if I don't die first.

meow: I think I am sort of doing something like that. Thanks for the review and help!

books are awesome699: Thanks for the reviews!

Pumpkinfur: LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLO LOLOLOLOLOLOL! There, I am helping you take the meaning out of it also! No, I didn't see it. :( Nice, I love to change my cats names also! ;)

Dancing in Moonlit Rain: Hi Rainfilly! It's fine, I don't update soon. I'm trying to show not tell, I really am.

Petalfall: Thanks! You are so welcome, I know how FFN can be confusing...

Neonluminosity: Hehe. And I finally updated so you can see. Yay!


(Lionblaze POV)

"Here, eat the herbs." I watch as my brother pushes a few herbs to Fox as she tries to warm up. A cool breeze whispers around my ears, and a sudden noise appears behind me. I see everyone else whirl around to find out what is there (except for Jayfeather and Fox), and I follow suit. In the darkening light, I wonder if my eyes are playing tricks on me, because I see in front of me a black cat with green eyes.

"Hollyleaf!" A drenched Fallenleaf exclaims in happiness. He runs over to the black she-cat and starts to lick her all over. "You're okay! What happened to you?" He starts to lick her fur in anxiety. It is taking a while to set in who the black cat is while she pushes him away with her tail.

"Of course I'm okay, mouse-brain! I can take care of myself!" Hurt is evident in Fallenleaf's eyes as he is pushed away, but I don't take into notice because I realize who the cat standing in front of me is.

"Hollyleaf! You are alive!" I shout from happiness. I rush forward and bury my nose in her fur so I can breathe in her scent again. "I thought you died in the tunnels!" She licks my side in a comforting sort of way.

"Lionblaze! Oh, I've been so worried! How is the Clan?"

"It's okay. Prey is starting to get scarcer as it does every leaf-fall, but we still survive! How are you?" I ask over-enthusiastically.

"I'm-" Hollyleaf starts to answer.

"Sorry, but can we get the half-drowned apprentice back to camp?" My brother asks sarcastically. My fur warms up considerately.

"R-right. Sorry." I pad back over to the shivering Fox and pick her up by the scruff. "Let's go," I mumble through lots of fur.

"I… can walk… on… my own." *cough*

"No, you can't! You still have a shattered leg and are likely to pass out." Jayfeather replies slightly harsh. Fallenleaf proceeds to get under the young cat and I gently arrange her on his back. "Come on, let's go." We slowly walk back to camp with me on one side of Fallenleaf, Ivypool on the other side. Dovewing is in front with Jayfeather close behind. Cherrypaw is behind us with Hollyleaf even farther behind.

After many long heartbeats, we finally get to the thorn tunnel. "Bring her to my den. Then Fallenleaf, Hollyleaf, go with Dovewing to Firestar's den; I expect him to want to see you both. I will be there soon." Dovewing and Jayfeather push through the thorn tunnel and attempt to move much of the brambles away in the process. As we push through the tunnel, all the cats grooming themselves before bed look up in surprise and hostility.

"THE MURDERER IS BACK!" A random cat yowls.

"A freaky cat!"

"A DEAD CAT!" The whole camp erupts with accusations while the walls only make it worse.

"SHUT UP AND MOVE IT!" A fuming medicine cat screams. Everyone obeys because no-one ever wants to make Jayfeather mad, hehe. Every head turns as the Thunderclan leader pads from his den looking roused from a deep sleep.

(Firestar POV)

A sudden racket in the clearing wakes me up from an excellent dream about me catching a mouse. I move out of my warm nest, trying not to wake Sandstorm in the process, and out into the chilly leaf-fall air. An outraged yell makes my clan shut-up, and immediately I know the only other cat able to get the clan to shut up so easily is Jayfeather. I walk out of the cave, and the heads of the clan-mates turn to face me. I turn towards the voice of Jayfeather to find the most un-likely pair of cats in the clearing. There is an angry Jayfeather, Dovewing, Ivypool, Lionblaze, Cherrypaw, a strange cat I haven't met before, a cat for the most part I believed innocent and exiled, and a black cat I thought to be dead. "Hollyleaf!" I race down from the Highledge and to the black she-cat. Jayfeather lightly pushes me away to lead the strange cat with Fox on his back to the medicine-cat den. The thorn-tunnel rustles once more and out appears a cat also sent into his exile in a way, a she-cat I thought I would never see again, and another cat.


Who do you think the new cats are?

Please don't harass me about such a short chapter, the next one will be out soon, I promise. No more than 5 chapters left! Then the new book after a while! Ugh, to many series'.

Please R&R.

Disclaimer: jayleaf1 does not own Warriors. Anyone that says otherwise will have to convince my school administrator ,or whoever else controls this stuff, that 4 months of Summer than 2.5 would be better for everyone. Good luck with that!
