Hello, my super fantastic readers! I am going on vacation (again) for the weekend, but I am pretty sure I will have wi-fi, and therefore post every night or every other night…
To a comment I got the other day: NO! I NEVER get tired of hearing 'good job' and 'keep it up'! I am a –somewhat- complex machine, and comments like those are meh fuel :D ~~~ just don't go overboard, I don't want a tummy ache xD

"Starclan's Windclan leader?" Emberwing was aghast. What was Fawnleap doing here, in the Darkforest of all places?! Shouldn't she be chasing rabbits or something?
"Yes, hare-brain," the light brown leader mewed irritably.
Emberwing decided just to shake that off, for the moment at least. "Okay, so what are you doing in the Darkforest?"
"Wait, you know what this place is?" Fawnleap now look as stunned as Emberwing was sure she had looked heartbeats before.
"Uh, yes? What would I think this place is, Starclan?"
"Yes! That's always what they've done in the past; they would tell the poor cats that they were Starclan warriors and this place was Starclan! I never thought they would actually tell you that…" Fawnleap was not muttering to herself, looking more lost than before and a little scared.
Catching Emberwing watching her, she put on a brave face. "So what, are you going to attack me, little blood warrior? Before you do, remember I've had more moons of practice than you have hairs on your pelt."
"Wa… No! I was just asking what you're doing here, not telling you that I was going to kill you!"
"Well, I'm looking for my sister." Fawnleap looked unwilling to tell Emberwing this piece of information.
"Your sister,"
"Yes,"
"And she's a Darkforest warrior?"
"Yes."
"Well then, what does she look like?"
"I don't remember."
Emberwing grew irritated. This conversation was going nowhere, and the blood on her fur was starting to cake in her fur and between her claws.
"What were you doing here, then?! Unless you at least know what she looks like, you're a rabbit sleeping in a fox's den! Do you have any idea what would have happened to you if it wasn't me who found you?!"
Fawnleap looked like a scolded kit. "I…" she looked up from her paws. "Wait, why didn't you kill me?"
Emberwing searched for the right words to explain her current situation to the Windclan leader. "I don't… agree with what the Darkforest is planning to do in the future."
Emberwing was about to answer the question in her green eyes when she caught a hint of sliver in the corner of her eyes. Mouse-dung!
"You fish-brained Starclan warrior, sneaking around here! You're coming with me!" Emberwing latched her teeth around the smaller –but heavier—she cat's scruff, trying her best to make it like she was clenching her jaws but in reality she was trying not to cause the Starclan warrior any more pain than was necessary.
"Hey, what are you…" Fawnleap struggled, and Emberwing was forced to let go for a brief moment. "Just follow along if you want to survive!"
Fawnleap appeared lost, but she didn't struggle as much anymore. Catching the glow of silver again, Emberwing stopped her dragging and, with a threatening paw on the leader's throat, bared her neck to Silverdust.
"Return. Red, what have you caught here?" Silverdust's voice was stiff, almost wary.
"A Starclan warrior. She was sneaking around the forest like the filth she is." It made her mouth feel dirty to say those words about Fawnleap, and she was praying that she wouldn't be offended and make lightning bolts make her a smear on the ground with whatever powers she had.
"Do you know who she is?" Silverdust settled down onto the slightly bloody ground, and Emberwing copied her. Fawnleap looked highly uncomfortable, but she was sure that was the least of the leader's worries at the moment.
"Yes, Silverdust. She is Starclan's Windclan leader, Fawnleap."
Silverdust looked furious. She got up, and motioned for Emberwing to step back.
"So, you think it would be that easy, Fawnleap? Just crawl up here and kill me, so this thing would be over? I knew you were mouse-brained, but this…"
Fawnleap said nothing, but Emberwing was impressed at how she didn't flinch as the two cats met gazes. Did she want to die?! As much as she didn't want to see the light brown cat bleed out before her eyes, she was wondering why Silverdust hadn't already striked.
"Silverdust, if I may ask, why haven't you already killed her?" The bigger of the two glowing cats chuckled, getting off Fawnleap except for one clawed forepaw on her chest.
"This, Red, is Fawnleap; my sister, and the cat that told me to kill my on kits."
Emberwing just stared at the smaller cat. Fawnleap had the courtesy to duck her head in shame and embarrassment. Silverdust turned back to the Starclan cat. The paw that was on her chest went up to her face. As only Silverdust could, she traced her claws softly across the now shivering Windclan leader's face, too soft to leave scratches but enough to leave little to the imagination on what she was going to do.
Emberwing was preparing for the images ahead when Silverdust abruptly pulled away.
"Red, I want you to kill her."
Fawnleap's eyes met her own.
Emberwing struggled for an excuse.
"Silverdust, instead of killing her, could we keep her hostage? Maybe we won't even have to fight, if we offered the Windclan leader of Starclan for a chunk of their territory. While that is taking place, we could probably get some information out of her."
Silverdust began to contemplate this.
"Fine, but when Starclan agrees to give us part of their territory for her, we will kill her. You will kill her."
Emberwing looked away from Fawnleap's tear-filled eyes. "Yes, Silverdust."
Woo! I sawrry, Fawnleap, but I have to take yewww hostageee… xxO
