Chapter Six: Back to Reality
Joxnstar awoke. Another pirate dream. Joxnstar sighed. He thought that with his new leadership of Twincestclan and the nine lives given to him by many of the great leaders before him and the strange new marking that appeared above his right paw, he would have forgotten about his rabid addiction for pirates. Joxnstar nuzzled Tahsisleaf and breathed in his scent. Joxnstar was instantly comforted by the scent of his own littermate. After nudging Tahsisleaf awake, Joxnstar began the duties assigned to them as leader and deputy. Joxnstar padded over to the apprentice den. Rainpaw, Waynepaw, Joepaw, and Hopepaw were waiting sleepily by the entrance.
"Ready for some training today?" mewed Joxnstar. Joxnstar was the only warrior neither injured from the big battle nor pushed into a fire by his own littermate, so he was tasked with training the apprentices for the time being.
Rainpaw, Waynepaw, Joepaw, and Hopepaw hopped after Joxnstar into the pine forest. Waynepaw hated pine forests! The worst thing she can think of is if she were named Waynepine as a warrior! Imagine that!
Since they were going hunting, Joepaw was very happy. Joepaw caught lots of mice but he ate them all and didn't leave anything for everyone else. Waynepaw hated that since Joepaw ate her food too. She pushed Joepaw off a pine tree when he was catching a squirrel.
"What the shrew farts!" Joepaw spluttered and broke his fluffy tail.
"Pay attention," Joxnstar commanded, but Hopepaw decided to knock him out with a rock.
"Nice one!" Waynepaw paw-fived Hopepaw, "Double attempted catcide!"
"Hey, let's jump on his unconscious body!" suggested Hopepaw. The four apprentices hopped onto Joxnclaw's body and unsheathed their claws.
"Hoppity hoppity hop!" exclaimed the warriors, "this is fun!" as they hopped up and down on his limp form.
Tahsisleaf walked out of the camp and ran into the training crew. He looked at Joxnstar's limp form and decided to also jump on his body.
"Ew, gross!" Hopepaw exclaimed and the apprentices sauntered off to the river. There, they saw another strange cat named Minjiapaw. She was with a RiverClan patrol! With her was the clan leader!
"I heard Shadowclan has had some drastic changes," The leader said. Suddenly, Joxnstar exploded onto the scene. Joepaw tripped him as he ran past to defend the border and he went crashing into the river. The apprentices witnessed his powers in action when he rose up out of the water like a waterbender cat.
Joxnpaw thought the RiverClan leader had pushed him so he drowned him in the river. Then, Joepaw told him the truth and Joxnstar felt silly for being such a rabbit head paws! As he should because Minjiapaw ran back to the camp to tell of how Twincestclan had declared war. But before that, she had to eat the RiverClan warriors body because she has to eat 24-7.
The apprentices all cheered because RiverClan sucked. They couldn't wait to do battle but first they have to train for some fighting. Joxnstar told the apprentices to attack each other but instead they decided to roll him in brambles so he was trapped and looked super silly.
"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha h!" purred Joepaw, Hopepaw, Waynepaw, and Rainpaw. Joxnstar looked super silly and you had better believe it!
