Chapter Eight: The Good Part is Getting Even Better
The next day Tahsisleaf was in the Nursery nursing his kits, when Joxnstar came to visit. "I'm so proud of them Tahsisleaf," he purred as he watched Tahsisleaf nurse their kits. "I'm worried about what will happen to them if we lose our impending battle with WindClan."
"Don't worry," purred Tahsisleaf as he leaned forward to nuzzle Joxnstar's neck. "I completely trust you and your leadership. You're my littermate and my regular mate, and an excellent leader. It'll be fine"
Nerypool, the medicine cat, entered the Nursery and begin checking all the kits. "Hello Nerypool," mewed Joxnstar. Nerypool give a mew of acknowledgement, but didn't say anything else. Joxnstar noticed this was strange, Nerypool usually spoke a lot. Nerypool quickly finished checking the kits and rushed out without a word. "Nerypool's acting a bit strange," noted Tahsisleaf.
On the day of the battle, something went terribly wrong. Tahsisleaf was frantic because his kits were gone! Were they stolen? Tahsisleaf thought so, and so did Joxnstar. Upon further inspection, Nerypool was also gone.
"We will find your kits!" The four apprentices exclaimed, since Joepaw had already picked up a scent at the entrance of the camp.
"Alright," replied Joxnstar, let me give you your warrior names real quick before you go just in case you die!" The four apprentices mewed in excitement. "Joetail, Wayneturtle, Hopemouth, and Rainheart!" he announced and then turned around to lead his clan to battle. The new warrriors set off on the journey, following the scent not to WindClan, but surprisingly to old Thunderclan territory.
Meanwhile, Joxnstar led the warriors Sethwhisker, Maxpad, and Tahsisleaf, and other members of his Clan towards WindClan for attack. They were surprised to see the WindClan cats ready for them with Nerypool in front.
"You turnpelt!" Joxnstar exclaimed, "I thought you were going to molest my kitties but instead you do something much worse!"
Nerypool shook his muzzle in disappointment at Joxnstar's words. "Molestation is not funny. Just the fact that you mentioned it to me makes you a terrible person. Good thing your apprentices kept you from showing me a promiscuous story in the real world."
Joxnstar didn't know what he was talking about but just ignored it. "Attack!" he cried.
In old Thunderclan territory, the warriors decided to frolic a little and were glad they got out of fighting. Joetail caught a frog and ate it.
"Oh my Starclan, Joetail," Wayneturtle shook her head, "You need to stop eating that. You will receive heart issues for sure.
Joetail clutched a paw to his chest and cringed while the other warriors jumped around him in worry. "Just kidding!" shouted Joetail. "Hahaha" the warriors laughed in unison. "Lolz" The warriors frolicked some more and all was well.
