Trespassers

The sky was gray; it was probably going to rain soon.

Blueblaze and Smokepaw walked towards the Stormclan border. The border near the old half bridge that is. They were going to mark it, but that was when Smokepaw lifted his head, his ears up. "There are cats coming."

"Hide." Blueblaze told him. They went into some bushes.

Shortly after Stormstar himself and his apprentice, Emberpaw came into view. They were chasing a rabbit. And they were about to cross the border! A leader should know better! Blueblaze thought angrily. He jumped out of his hiding spot, Smokepaw coming shortly after him. "Stop!" he yelled.

Stormstar and Emberpaw came to a screeching stop. "Oh. S-sorry." Stormstar panted.

Emberpaw on the other hand rolled her eyes. "We weren't going to cross. Sheesh."

"Oh? That's what it seemed like to me." Smokepaw pried.

Emberpaw gave this innocent blink and spoke in a taunting voice. "Why I'm sorry. I didn't know blind apprentices knew so much about seeing us cross the border."

Smokepaw made a noise that was a combination of a scream and a hiss and launched out at her.

Emberpaw, despite practically asking for it, seemed surprised by his move. She crouched down, eyes wide.

Then Blueblaze caught Smokepaw by the scruff of his neck. He set him down. "Smokepaw, don't. It's not worth it." He looked uncomfortably at Stormstar. He looks like he could use some sleep. Blueblaze that.

Stormstar sighed. "What do you say we put this situation behind us, and both get back to our camps?"

Blueblaze nodded. "Good idea."

He walked off with Smokepaw and Stormstar walked away with Emberpaw. "She deserved to be attacked." Smokepaw muttered.

"Well . . . maybe." Blueblaze admitted. "But we fight those two we'll start a fight with the clan." Smokepaw sighed.

And that was when it started to rain. When they got back they were both rather wet. Moonstar ran out. "You're back. Are you two alright?" A few other cats looked out of their dens.

Blueblaze nodded. "We had a little trouble at the Stormclan border, it looked like they were going to cross, but we managed to solve it peacefully."

Moonstar nodded. Dragonflame called from her den, "They already have more territory than us. What are they doing taking more?!" Eclipsepelt gave her a look to shut it.

Blueblaze was having a very different thought. He was starting to agree with Dragonflame. However it was obvious Moonstar didn't, so he didn't say anything. Dragonflame looked upset; she walked back inside her den. Eclipsepelt shook his head at the sky, then followed her back in.

Dragonflame sat in the corner for a while. Eventually she realized this was crazy. Even if she was here to start a battle, doing nothing but talking about it would make the others suspicious. She walked back. "Eclipsepelt?"

"Hmm?"

Dragonflame had figured out by now that that was the most she was going to get out of him. "Look, I just wanted to say, I'm sorry. That was stupid of me to say."

Eclipsepelt, as usual, grunted. "Don't apologize to me. Apologize to Moonstar."

Apologize to Moonstar? Seems a bit like over kill to me. Dragonflame thought. All she said was, "Thanks for the tip." Then she stalked back over to her corner.

She didn't stay back there for long this time either. "Hey," Dragonflame's eyes widened. She turned around. Sure enough, it was Eclipsepelt who'd said it. He jerked his head at the spot next to him. "No reason to sleep alone."

Dragonflame gave a weak smile. "Thanks." Eclipsepelt shrugged, but for once he didn't come off as so cold and indifferent. Dragonflame rearranged her moss next to his nest, and they both went to sleep.

Smokepaw meanwhile, was having a different break through. He never liked getting wet, but this water was different. It was sticking to his pelt, and felt heavier. So he tried to lick it away. He made a face. "This water tasted nasty."

Blueblaze looked at him with concern; he was noticing the difference in the rain too. "Do you want to talk to Brokenclaw?" he asked. Brokenclaw was their medicine cat.

Smokepaw shook his head. "I doubt it's serious." He walked to the apprentice den. He should've said something.


Stone Teller walked to the back of his cave. He had to talk to his ancestors. He went to sleep. "Greetings Stone Teller."

It was a former Stone Teller, Crag Where Eagles Nest, who'd greeted him. Stone Teller tipped his head. "Greetings. I have to talk to you about the cats who showed up here tonight."

"We know." It was different cat who'd said that, Brook.

"The two supposed 'clan cats'." Her kit, Pine, added.

Stone Teller nodded. "Do you know? Have the clans really been re-created?"

At first, it seemed like no one knew, then Half Moon appeared. "Yes." Stone Teller blinked. He hadn't been expecting an answer, much less one from Half Moon herself. She smiled. "I talked to Jayfeather, he told me about it."

Stone Teller nodded. "Thank you." He was about to leave when Half Moon came closer.

"Some advice, the clans might be re-created, but be careful who you make alliances."

Then Stone Teller woke up. What does that mean? He wondered. Should he not welcome clan cats? That's when Shadow came in. "Stone Teller?"

"What is it?"

"I thought you should know, the clan cats are gone."

(Hehe. Then again, not a huge cliff hanger. If you keep track of the order, you'll know I do the future Skyclan cats, and Death Trap's perspective next. Anywho review please.)
