82. Exchange

100 Tales 82

Exchange

It was a weird day. Two cats in ThunderClan and ShadowClan had exchanged bodies—Tawnypelt and Squirrelflight. No, wait, that's not right…. What I meant to say is that they exchanged Clans. For a day, Tawnypelt was to be our mother, and Squirrelflight would be a mother to Tawnypelt's kits.

I miss Squirrelflight. I miss her scent, and I wish the way she was so familiar that I wouldn't ever feel lost. I feel…. Well, lost without her. Tawnypelt is great, and all, but she doesn't really know me.

"Hey, Jaypaw." Tawnypelt came up to me. "So, what are you doing today?" She flinched, and she needed say no more. I knew what she meant—would I be doing anything today, because I was blind? Could I do anything today, because I was blind? I sighed.

"I'm helping Leafpool in the medicine cats' den," I replied.

"Oh." She walked away.

I could feel that my Clanmates felt somewhat…. well, they felt somewhat awkward around Tawnypelt. It's not like they didn't have any rights not to feel awkward, though…. Tawnypelt was from an enemy Clan!! Who knows, she might hear something, and then, the day after the exchange, then she might just go back to ShadowClan and tell them everything.

I stared—well, not really stared, but you get the point—as she walked away.
