Here is chapter 12! (From now on Mistyeyes will be known as Alice, which was her human name)
CHAPTER 12
(Alice's POV)
Alice stumbled blindly through ThunderClan territory. Her eyes stung from crying and her paws were sore from walking. She didn't have much of an idea of where she was going, all she knew is she that she might find answers at the Moonpool. She thought about Moorpaw and how he had wanted to come with her, did he really still love her even after she said they couldn't be together? She began to hear the low trickle of a waterfall. Slowly she crept towards the sound, fitting her paws into the prints of the ancient cats. Alice found herself gazing at the starlit pool, her eyes wide. She settled down by the water and stared at it. What am I supposed to do now? She thought, drink it. A voice in the back of her head said. Cautiously she leaned down and lapped up some of the cold water. Instantly she fell asleep, all she could see was darkness and it felt like she was falling. She had hoped StarClan would talk to her but not like this! Suddenly the falling stopped and she was sitting by the lake, cats were fighting behind her and she couldn't move. This is the same dream she'd been having since she joined the clan! The prophecy rang in her ears and she tried to block it out, this is pointless! She thought trying to wake up, Stop! Stop! "Stop!" her eyes flashed open and she shut her mouth hoping that no one had heard her. She got up and cast one last glance at the Moonpool before stalking away. Dumb dream! She thought bitterly, not noticing how deep she was going into ThunderClan territory, can't I dream of something useful for once! Dumb dead cats!
"What are you doing on ThunderClan territory?" a voice growled behind her. She turned around to see a huge reddish orange tom, his amber eyes blazing. Two cats padded up behind him, a muscular black she-cat who seemed to be an apprentice and a pure white tom.
She cowered under the reddish toms height, "I, umm," she stuttered.
The she-cat hissed menacingly, "She doesn't seem to have a good reason to be on our territory..."
"What should we do with her Blazewillow?" the white tom asked.
The reddish tom stared her down, "We should take her to Birdstar, she can decide what to do with this trespasser." The white tom and the she-cat nodded in agreement, then went to stand on either side of her. The reddish tom, apparently named Blazewillow brought up the rear. Alice walked silently not responding to their questions, she had never been treated like a prisoner before, everyone in WindClan had been so nice to her. For a brief moment she wished Moorpaw would appear and save her, but she wistfully remembered he was gone, she was alone now.
Alice was lead into the ThunderClan camp, cats began to pad out of their dens. It was just after dawn and she was hungry from all the walking she had been doing. Her mouth watered as she caught a glimpse of the fresh-kill pile. Blazewillow nodded to the white tom who ran off to Birdstar's den. A moment later he reappeared with the leader at his side. The Birdstar spoke, "Hailfeather tells me you found a trespasser on our territory."
Blazewillow nodded, "We've tried to ask her who she is but she won't talk," he meowed.
Birdstar looked her in the eye, Alice resisted the urge to claw her face. She turned to Blazewillow, "Then ask again!" she meowed harshly.
"Wa-what's your name?" he stuttered, Alice didn't reply, "WHAT'S YOUR NAME!" he screamed angrily.
Alice fluffed her fur up and gave a small hiss, "My name," she meowed quietly flattening her fur, "Is Alice."
"I think i've seen her at the gatherings," a cat called from the crowd that had gathered.
"Yeah!" another cat agreed, "She's from WindClan!"
Birdstar nodded thoughtfully, "And why would warrior with a kittypet name like you be on our territory?" Alice didn't answer. "Fine!" the leader snapped, "Don't answer!" She turned to Blazewillow and Hailfeather, "We will keep her prisoner, she may have some valuable information about WindClan." The two toms nodded and Birdstar continued, "She will stay with me in my den, tell Boltstrike to keep two guards posted there everyday." The toms ran off to find Boltstrike and the crowd of cats padded back to their dens. The tan leader lead Alice up to her den, "Go on in," she meowed and Alice walked cautiously into the large den. Two cats, a brown tabby tom and a greenish gray tom sat down by the entrance. Alice laid down and put her head on her paws as watched the ThunderClan leader address the guards and stalk away.
