Honeypaw looked to see the other apprentices talking to some cats. Dawnpaw was talking to a gray tabby tom with ragged fur and Breezepaw was talking to a she-cat that looks like her but older and less fluffy. While Featherpaw was sitting on her own. "Who are you guys talking to?" Honeypaw asked. "I'm talking to the Darkclan medicine cat, Wolftail." Dawnpaw responded.

"I'm talking to my mother." Breezepaw replied. "Wait isn't that Milkfur? The deputy of Ashclan?" Honeypaw asked. Breezepaw sighed and explained, "I'm half-clan. This is my mother from Ashclan while my father is Beestar from Shineclan. I was separated from my mother when I was only three moons." Honeypaw gasped. "It's all true." Milkfur added.

Featherpaw was sitting a farther away from where the others are was looking down at a stream, Honeypaw walked over. "You ok?" She asked. "I can't find Flamepelt, he was a missing cat and my mentor." Featherpaw replied. Honeypaw then heard a scream from the distance. 

Featherpaw was right about to swim across but then Honeypaw through her across the stream then both started running towards the sound of the scream. 

Honeypaw paws scrambled when she saw 2 badgers surrounding a dark tabby tom with yellow eyes. "Flamepelt!" Featherpaw yowled, trying to jump forward but then Honeypaw pulled her back. Then another dark tabby tom but with green eyes leaped forward and grabbing the bloody scruff of a badger's neck.

Honeypaw's eyes widened backed up into the shrubs along with Featherpaw. King was the green eyed one.

Flamepelt leaped over one of the badgers and behind its back it bit its leg, blood shuffling out. King kept holding the grip of the badger's throat and even blood started to pour from the badger's neck until the other badger leaped away from Flamepelt and yanked King from the other badger. King got knocked down and blood was pouring from his tail.

Flamepelt helped get King up and pounced on a badger, scraping down it's back until he was flung off. Flamepelt charged towards the badger and tried to hit it with killing swipes on the chest but the badger kept dodging. On the other paw King was bitting on the other badger's neck again. Flamepelt kept missing attack against the badger until he got drowsy, the badger then used his jaw to bite down on Flamepelt's neck, blood kept flowing out. 

Flamepelt grasped for air and scraped is claws against the ground over and over again until the badger let go of Flamepelt and he collapsed, dead. Featherpaw scrambled forward and tried to attack but Honeypaw yanked her away from it all, keeping her in the shrubs.

The badger turned around to see King fighting against the badger but bleeding so much. The badger lunged onto King's back, knocking him down. King got back up and slashed the neck of the badger, it gasped and fainted. The other badger pulled the fainted badger to there own badger cave. 

King was bleeding and breathing heavily and looked at his surrounding, he turned to where Honeypaw and Featherpaw were hiding. "Run.." King said in a raspy voice while breathing heavily, knowing that the other badger would come back.

Featherpaw and Honeypaw sprinted away across the stream to go see Savannah. "S-Savvanah!" Featherpaw spoke. "Yes?" She asked. "King and Flamepelt a-a-are.. dead." Featherpaw replied. "WHAT!?" Savannah exclaimed "Where are they!?" Featherpaw and Honeypaw led her to their bodies.

Savannah gasped in terror and ran over to the two bodies, "We shall bring them to the bay." The bay? Like the Bayclan bay? Honeypaw wondered. They headed to the bay, it looked like the sundrown place. The other cats were already there, they must of overheard the news. Savanah dropped the two bodies in the water.

Honeypaw looked up to there two spirits ascending into the stars. All the cats looked up and stood silently. They then returned to their area.
