Yep, you saw this story was discontinued, maybe.
But I started it back up again, because I was bored.
I'm also sad I have only one review, but, okay? Atleast it's one ^^
Anyway, onto the story.
Chapter 9
Lilacpaw quivered with excitement.
Redwood had already reported to Dovestar, she and Shadefall were organizing a patrol to investigate the badger.
Redwood, Shadefall, and Ferntail were going to sniff out the badger and try to drive it out, Lilacpaw was sad that she wasn't going to go, but it was probably the safest thing to do. She watched the patrol leave.
Lightningpaw grabbed a squirrel, then padded over to LilacPaw, sitting beside her. "What did you catch today?" He asked, laying down.
Lilacpaw smiled, "I caught a vole, mouse, and a squirrel!" she meowed proudly. He smiled and flicked his tail, "All I caught was a stupid bird." he muttered. Lilacpaw shook her head, "No! You must not call birds stupid, you're just too smart for them!" She meowed, biting into the squirrel that Lightningpaw brought.
Lightningpaw puffed up his chest with pride, then leaned his head down, eating with Lilacpaw. She smiled, flicking her tail close to her side while they ate.
After they had finished, Lightningpaw had disposed of the carcass of the squirrel.
Lilacpaw smiled, getting up and nodding at Lightningpaw, "I thank you for eating with me." she giggled. He nodded, looking down on the she-cat, "Want to...go hunting with me?" he meowed, "I mean, there must be more animals in the forest to catch, if you're not tired, that is."
Lilacpaw nodded, "Sure, I don't mind." she replied and got up, following Lightningpaw out into the forest.
Ferntail and Shadefall held Redwood up on their shoulders, continuing the path forward. She grunted as Redwood began to slip off, then pulled him back up again.
Shadefall was shaking, his eyes glaring forward.
"What is the matter, Shadefall?" Ferntail meowed, Shadefall twisted his head around to Fernleaf, snapping his jaws, "What's the matter? Look on your shoulders, Ferntail!" he spat. She sighed and looked at the ground, her paw bleeding from the badger, "I noticed, Shadefall, don't you think?" she snapped back at the tom.
Shadefall shook his head, "Just... get him back to camp, it doesn't matter anymore." he growled.
Ferntail nodded, her ears lowered, Redwood was Ferntail's mate, and Yellowpaw's and Lightningpaw's father, they won't be very happy.
Lilacpaw and Lightningpaw padded back to camp, holding the prey that they had caught.
A medium sized hare lay limp in Lilacpaw's mouth, while a small gray squirrel in Lightningpaw's.
They had both enjoyed the hunt, it being a sunny Leaf-fall evening, and the soft crackle of yellow, orange, and brown leaves under their soft paws.
They walked over to the Fresh-kill pile and dropped their prey in, giggling.
The entrance to the camp shook and shuffled, three cats padding into the camp.
Shadefall, Ferntail, and a motionless Redwood.
Lightningpaw's eyes quickly clouded up, and he ran over to the group, his legs shaking and skittering across the dirt ground.
Dustsky ran out of the medicine cat den, holding herbs in his mouth.
Shadefall shook his head no, and Dustsky nodded sadly, walking back into the den. Lightningpaw looked at Shadefall, "He's going to be alright...right?" his voice shook and cracked. Ferntail let Redwood off of her back, then walked off into the medicine den, limping on her bloody paw.
Lightningpaw looked at the ground, "No, Lightningpaw, he is not going to be alright." Shadefall finally answered the tom, then followed Ferntail.
Lightningpaw sat down, his eyes fixed on his paws.
Lilacpaw sat behind Lightningpaw, her tail rubbing against Lightningpaw, "It's going to be okay."
And that was Chapter 9, sorry it was short.
