Starlingfeather's death is why Pinedusk, A.K.A. Pinestar, didn't pay much attention to Leopardfoot. Also, how what would you rate this idea for a book: A super powered wolf must save the universe from an ancient evil. I'm aiming to publish it, and would like your feedback.
"It's not your fault, Goosepaw," Moonpaw said. "Starlingfeather was young, she should have waited to have kits."
With a snort, Goosepaw turned his head. Three days since Starlingfeather's death, and all he could do was to blame himself.
Besides, he thought, all she wants to do is talk to stupid—
"Stormtail!" Moonpaw called!
"Oh, hi. Hey, Moonpaw, do you wanna go on patrol?" Stormtail had answered him. Giving her brother an apologetic glance, she followed the warrior out of camp. Goosepaw sighed. Stormtail was handsome, silent, and good with the she-cats. Exactly why Goosepaw didn't trust him.
Then, from across the camp, Goosepaw saw Lilysong. Her normally smooth pelt was ruffled, and calm blue eyes spiked with fear. The medicine cat apprentice immediately ran over to the queen.
"Goosepaw! Thank StarClan you're here. Swiftkit's missing! I think she's missing."
"Adderpaw!" Goosepaw yowled, "get over here." As soon as the tabby Tom arrived, he explained the situation, then rushed out, Adderpaw followed him.
Swiftkit wasn't at Snakerocks, nor was the cute little kit at the great sycamore either. She wasn't even at fourtrees.
"Help! I'm falling!"
Goosepaw and Adderpaw stared at each other, fear lighting the latter's gaze. The stream!
As soon as the apprentices arrived, they saw her. The tiny kit was hanging on by her jaws to a branch, no bigger than a twig, over the black water below, her little white teeth digging into the bark.
Goosepaw yowled in shock as Adderpaw jumped up, catching Swiftkit. But the young cats had been swept off the twig.
But just as Goosepaw was about to save the two two, a huge gray blur rushed past, knocking him into the stream. The cat grabbed the two, then hauled them out, Swiftkit not taking her gaze off Adderpaw once. Looking up, Goosepaw saw Moonpaw, as well as—
Stormtail! Goosepaw thought, anger and embarrassment flooding his mind, intensifying when he saw the look Moonpaw was giving the tom. Why doesn't he ever give me a chance. He just wants Moonpaw to like him.
And, absorbed in his hateful thoughts, Goosepaw didn't notice the others as they left, leaving the speckled tom all alone, not to return until nightfall, sad and beaten.
