I walked away from the tall rock, as I let the clan talk it out amongst them selves, as I felt like I really did not want to be answering a lot of questions right at this very moment in time too. I felt like I was being a bad leader due to that, but I just really did not care all too much, and I also felt like I was quite as lost as the rest of them were, and I really did not have the answers that I was sure it was that they were even looking for, all at the exact same time as well, never the less.
As I stood there, and I stared for just a little bit more time, I then began to start to get to the bottom of the tall rock, all at the exact same time too. I heard the clan speaking loudly to one another right now, as I just did my best to ignore all of the voices. I knew as to just what it was that I needed to do right now, as I had made a promise to OwlThroat last night, as to the fact that I had in fact told him that I was in fact going to go on ahead, and that I was in fact going to do that, all at the exact same time as well.
The promise was of course, was the fact that I was going to go to speak to KettleStar, as I was quite a bit lost as to why it was that he had gone out to speak to OwlThroat, rather than to me. Was Riverclan not all too sure as to whether or not it was that I was fit to be the leader either? I felt like I was trying my best, as I was not all too sure as to just why it was that no one trusted me as a leader either.
I had been chosen by Starclan, and I had done my best to make sure that I had kept the peace, whilst in might not be working such as it was that I would have liked, I at the very least was in fact trying, all at the exact same time too, as at least I could say that, never the less. It just felt strange that it seemed like even as good of a friend as it was that KettleStar was to me, it felt bad for me as to the fact that he had gone to speak to my deputy about this all, rather than it was that he had gone to speak to me, as it seemed like he trusted OwlThroat more than me for some odd reason or another.
I was not all too sure as to just why that was, as I felt like I might just be over thinking all of this. I had in fact noticed a little bit of a strange bond between the both of them, which I was not all too sure as to just what it was that all of that even was about, all at the exact same time as well. I did my best to try to keep my self as calm as I felt like I possibly could, all at once, as I got my mind, and I got my focus off of all of the rest of those other thoughts that I had in fact been thinking on long before now, all at the exact same time too, never the less.
I then all of the sudden got my eyes on the fact that of course, the cat that it was that I had just in fact even been thinking about long before now, all at the exact same time too, was in fact standing there, right in front of me, none the less. I looked at the tom cat right in to his eyes, all at the exact same time as well. I saw him squinting his eyes at me for some odd reason or another, at that.
I was a little bit worried if it was that it seemed like he did not trust me either, which did not make me feel all too good in side, if I was not going to lie to my self either, as I felt like at the very least, I should have my deputy having his trust, and having his faith in me, all at the exact same time as well. How ever, with that not seeming to be the case, it was starting to question my thoughts, and my job as the leader of Windclan, all at the exact same time as well, never the less.
What if it was that they were in fact to revolt against me? That for sure would not be good... I felt like I needed to stay calm, as I felt like that would likely not be the case. I knew that the cats loved me, but they just simply were not all too happy with the way that things were going right now, and I felt like I had no other choice, as I really did not want to start a war with all of the other clans over this, all at the exact same time too, never the less.
I kind of just began to start to breath in quite a bit of a heavy sigh to my self all at once, all at the exact same time too, as I did my best to try to get my mind, and to try to get my focus off of all of the rest of that other stuff that I had in fact even been thinking on long before now, all at the exact same time too, none the less. Of course, it was not all too hard for me to make that the case, luckily enough for me, all at the exact same time too. That was due to the fact that OwlThroat had in fact all of the sudden nodded to me, all at the exact same time too.
As soon as it was that I had in fact seen him do as such a thing like that, all at once, that was when I then did in fact not hesitate but to go right on ahead, and I did in fact begin to start to nod back to him, all at the exact same time too, to let him know that I was in fact paying attention to him, all at the exact same time too. It was clear at the very least, that it had in fact made him feel a  slight bit better, all at the exact same time as well, as I saw the worried look go away from his face, all at the exact same time too.
As soon as it was that all of that had in fact happened, all at the exact same time as well, that was when I then all of the sudden did in fact begin to start to hear him begin to start to continue to speak to me, all at the exact same time as well. I let out a bit of a soft sigh to my self all at once, as soon as it was that he had in fact begin to start to do as such a thing like that, never the less. I then did in fact begin to start to listen as to just what it was that he even had to say to me in the very first place any ways, all at the exact same time too, at that.
"Are you ready to go and speak to KettleStar... I think some thing needs to be done about this all... That is just what I think though... I don't think we need to start a war, but DustEyes just cannot be the deputy any more... This is just too wrong, all that he is doing..." He said to me, all at the exact same time as well, as I saw that he was in fact looking at me with his eyes squinted over towards me, once again. It was clear to me that he was making sure that I knew that he was being for real with just what it was that he had even said to me, all at the exact same time too.
I did my best to try to keep my self as calm as I felt like I possibly could in the mean time, as I still was not all too sure as to just what it was that I should say, or do back against that, all at the exact same time too. I kind of felt like it was in fact NettleStar's problem, and that he should deal with it, all at the exact same time too. How ever, it just did not seem like he was in fact going to do as such a thing like that what so ever, never the less, once again.
It seemed like he was going to just let him friend do what ever it was that he wanted to do, all at the exact same time as well, as it seemed like he did not care what so ever, as to just what it was that the consequences were even going to be, none the less. It was clear to me, if I was not going to lie to my self either, as much as I really did not want to say this  about him, that he was in fact a weak leader, all at the exact same time too, as it seemed like DustEyes was in fact the real leader of Shadowclan, all at the exact same time too.
If that was in fact the case, that it seemed like we had a grim future ahead of us, all at the exact same time as well, as I just did my best to try to keep my self as calm as I felt like I possibly could once again, as I got my mind, and I got my focus off of all of that other stuff all at the exact same time too. I knew that I needed to stop thinking about what it was that I did in fact have planned to what it was that I was going to say right now. I knew that I could do that on the journey to the Riverclan camp, all at the exact same time as well, never the less.
I knew that I had to go on ahead and head over there, all at the exact same time as well, as that was in fact exactly what it was that I did in fact have planned in the very first place any ways, all at the exact same time too. As soon as it was that those thoughts did in fact come back to my mind, all at the exact same time as well, that was when I then all of the sudden did in fact begin to start to nod to my self all of the sudden, once again.
As soon as it was that I had in fact done as such a thing like that, all at once, that was when I then began to start to get my eyes, and I began to start to get my focus more or less on my deputy, all at the exact same time too. I then all of the sudden looked at him right in to his eyes, all at once. I then did in fact begin to start to speak to him, all at the exact same time too.
He kind of just stood there, and he looked at me with a bit of a blank look on his face for quite a bit of some time, all at once, as in the end, all at the exact same time too, he then did in fact begin to start to nod back to me, thankfully enough for me, all at the exact same time too. I let out a bit of a soft sigh to my self all at once, as soon as it was that he had in fact done as such a thing like that, all at the exact same time as well, never the less.
As soon as it was that he had in fact done as such a thing like that, all at the exact same time too, that was when I then all of the sudden did in fact begin to start to go right on ahead, and I began to start to breath in quite a bit of a soft sigh to my self, all at once. I then did in fact begin to start to continue to speak to him all of the sudden, none the less. I knew that he was in fact beginning to start to listen as to just what it was that I even had to say to him in the very first place any ways, all at the exact same time too, never the less.
"Yes... I will be going there right now..." I said to him, all at the exact same time as well, as I then all of the sudden blinked my eyes a few times, all at the exact same time as well, after I did in fact say as to just what it was that I had in fact even just said to him, all at the exact same time too. I did my best to try to keep my self as calm as I felt like I possibly could, all at the exact same time too, as I got my mind, and my focus off of all of the worried thoughts that I had been thinking on long before now, none the less.
I stared at my deputy right in to his eyes, all at the exact same time too, as I saw that he was looking right back in to my own, all at the exact same time too, as it was clear that he was trying to make sure that I was in fact being for real with what it was that I had in fact said to him. He had his eyes wide and all, as it was clear that he was in fact still quite a bit worried about all of this, all at the exact same time too, as I kind of just began to start to breath in quite a bit of a soft sigh to my self, all at the exact same time as well.
As I stood there, and I kind of just stared for just a little bit longer, I then all of the sudden saw him nod back to me, all at once, as he nodded to the exit of the camp, all at the exact same time as well. It was clear to me that he was trying to tell me that I did in fact need to get all of this started, all at the exact same time as well. As soon as it was that I had in fact seen him do as such a thing like that, all at the exact same time too, that was when I then did in fact begin to start to do as such a thing like that, all at once.
I breathed in quite a bit of a soft sigh to my self, all at the exact same time too, as I did my best to try to keep my self as calm as I felt like I possibly could, all at the exact same time too, as I then began to start to clear my mind, and I began to start to clear out the rest of those other thoughts that I had in fact even been thinking on long before now, all at the exact same time too.
Once it was that I had done that, that was when I then began to start to hear the voice of the deputy, all at the exact same time as well, as it was clear to me that he did in fact have one last thing that it was that he felt like he needed to say to me, all at the exact same time too, before it was that I did in fact head off in that direction, all at the exact same time as well.
I kind of blinked my eyes a few times, all at once, as I still was not all too sure as to just what it was that was even going on still, all at the exact same time too, as I just kind of began to start to turn my head over to him, all at once, wondering what it was that was even going on right at this very moment in time too. As soon as it was that he had seen me do as such a thing like that, he then did in fact begin to start to continue to speak to me, all at the exact same time as well.
I did my best to try to keep my self as calm as I felt like I possibly could, all at the exact same time too, as I then all of the sudden did in fact begin to start to go right on ahead, and I began to start to breath in quite a bit of a soft sigh to my self, all at once, as I did my best to try to keep my self as calm as I felt like I possibly could in the mean time, none the less. I then did in fact begin to start to listen as to just what it was that he even had to say to me in the very first place any ways, never the less, once again, at that
"Be safe... There is a lot of stuff going on out there MoonStar..." He said to me, as I saw that based off of the wide look that it was that he did in fact have in his eyes, all at the exact same time too, that it was clear that he was in fact a little bit worried for me, all at the exact same time too. I kind of did my best to try to keep my self as calm as I felt like I possibly could, all at once, as I then all of the sudden continued to turn my head away from him, all at once, and I did what it was that I was trying to do in the very first place any ways, never the less.
That was of course the fact that I knew that I did in fact need to go right on ahead, and I knew that I needed to go and head to Riverclan. I was not all too worried about getting attacked, as I knew that Shadowclan was on the other side of the lake, luckily enough for us, all at the exact same time too. I still felt like he was in fact right on the fact that I at the very least, did in fact need to keep my eyes and ears peeled for just in case.
I kind of began to start to breath in quite a bit of a soft sigh to my self, all at once, as I did in fact kind of calm my self down a bit, all at the exact same time too, as I then began to start to head out of the camp, all at the exact same time too. Of course, no one seemed to care less about it, luckily enough for me, as I had already told them that I was going to go and speak to KettleStar on my own, all at the exact same time as well, never the less.
As I began to start to head out of the camp, all at the exact same time as well, I could not help but to notice the fact that it seemed like I had got the attention of one cat, all at the exact same time too, as I saw that they had their eyes squinted, just as it was that OwlThroat did a few moments ago, all at the exact same time as well. I was too afraid to really look over at who it was, all at the exact same time too, with my own 2 eyes.
I instead did my best to check from the corner of my eyes, to see as to just who it was, all at the exact same time too. I saw that it should be to no such sort of surprise what so ever to me, none the less, that it was in fact my mate, MintNose, all at the exact same time too, none the less. I was a bit lost as to just what it was that was going on with her still, right now. I thought we had got over all of that other stuff that we had already spoken about.
I kind of just gulped a bit heavily to my self, all at once, as I knew that this was the last thing that it was that did in fact need to be in my head, and on my mind right now, all at the exact same time too, as I then just shook my head a bit to my self, all at once. I then continued to go right on ahead, and head out of camp, all at the exact same time as well, never the less. As soon as it was that I was out, I let out a bit of a soft sigh, as I knew that it was time for me to focus on just what it was that I was about to have to say to KettleStar, all at the exact same time too.
