Blackstar's Deputyship 2#

Chapter 17: Yellowfang's Exile

Blackfoot laid in the sun, it was warm good on a cold day.

He watched Brightflower's kits Mintkit and Marigoldkit play.

They were Yellowfang, Nutwhisker and Rowanberry's kits.

Russetfur slowly walked out of the Medicine Cat's den. She enjoyed sleeping there and helping Yellowfang.

Her belly was gently rounded with their kits.

Our kits he thought.

That sounded great.

"Enjoying the sunlight?" She teased.

He purred, "Want to join me?"

"Of course, move over" she laughed and awkwardly laid down.

"I feel fat" she grumbled looking at her belly.

Blackfoot chuckled, "Just think in a few moons, we'll meet our kits."

"Thats a good thought."

********************************

The next day, Blackfoot decided to go on a patrol. They walked along the ThunderClan border, nothing.

"Alright we can head back" he told his group. Tangleburr, Stumpytail and Flintfang nodded.

They got back and Brightflower ran up to him with Yellowfang.

"Have you seen my kits" she asked.

"Uh no" Blackfoot was confused.

The queen let out a wail, "Her kits are missing" Yellowfang explained.

Blackfoot nodded, "we'll head back out and look for them."

Blackfoot took his patrol and ran out with Brightflower and Yellowfang.

Half way through the search, Yellowfang left, and Blackfoot continued searching.

"Do you think we'll find them" Flintfang whispered.

"I hope so."

After a while, Blackfoot stood in front of his patrol, "we need to head back, we'll send a bigger patrol then."

They nodded and headed back.

Russetfur ran awkwardly to him, "The kits are dead" she cried.

"What!" Blackfoot pinned his ears back.

"Yellowfang found them dead, everyone thinks she's the killer."

Oh she's talking about Brightflowers kits, "I though you were talking about our kits" he whispered.

"Their fine, Yellowfang's not though" Russetfur gave him a worried look.

They got to camp, and Yellowfang was in the middle of a bunch of cats, Newtspeck, Rowanberry, Nutwhisker and Runningnose were protecting her.

Brokenstar was was on the high-rock, "No I exile you from ShadowClan Yellowfang. For the murder of these two kits!" He roared.

Near Brightflower and Brackenfoot, laid two dead, torn, bloody kits.

"Yellowfang would never kill kits!" Blackfoot yelled.

Everyone turned to him, "These kits are her sibling, Brightflower and Brackenfoot are Yellowfang's parents too, do you really think our own Medicine Cat would kill kits she helped deliver herself?!" He yowled.

Many cats looked awkwardly at each other, and some cats even agreed with him.

"They were dead with their blood on her paws" Brokenstar growled.

"What can you say to that?"

Everyone looked at him, "I want to hear what Yellowfang has to say, and let her for StarClans sake!" He hissed.

Yellowfang gave him a thankful nod.

"When I got to the clearing, the kits were already dead, there was no herbs or cobwebs around, and I didn't want to leave them" she explained.

Blackfoot and Russetfur turned towards the crowd, "See there was nothing she could do."

"How do we know she's not lying?" Brokenstar growled.

"He's right, she could just be lying to cover up!" Brightflower snarled.

To his horror, cats agreed.

"Exile her!"

"Kill her!"

"She should pay!"

"Murder!"

"Liar!"

"Betrayer!"

"Then It is decided!" Brokenstar said.

"Yellowfang I exile you from ShadowClan!"

Blackfoot gasped and was about to lanch to her defence, but Fernshade put her paw on his chest.

"Don't there's nothing you can do" she whispered.

This was the first time since Badgerfang's death she said something kind.

He watched as she left the camp.

Brokenstar jumped down then pass him and whispered in his ear.

"You wouldn't want your kits to be fatherless would you?"

:O 0_0 Brokenstar is a f***ing creep. And a jerk. I know this isn't how Yellowfang's Exile went but if Blackfoot did stand up for her, I imagine this is how it would have went.
