Stars Shattered

Chapter 2

" How is LittleCloud FidgetFlake? " PickleStem asked, as the Tom returned from helping The ShadowClan apprentice. " He is fighting the best he can, he doesn't want to not be able to Give FlamePaw is Medicine cat name " FidgetFlake sighed, and sat next to PickleStem. " Do you know what is causing it...? " PickleStem asked. " All we can say, is all the Prey in ShadowClan has horribly Rotted, we may risk ShadowClan hunting in our territory for them to feed themselves. " FidgetFlake responded, and began to groom his paws. " Rotten? But it is New-leaf! Shouldn't the prey be bountiful? " PickleStem mewed. " Well, it's....weird. It looks normal on the outside, but cut it open and it's black, and gooey on the inside " FidgetFlake responded, shuddering. " Black, gooey...? " PickleStem tilted her head, until a loud shriek emerges from the the center of the clan. PickleStem and FidgetFlake raced out, and PebbleShine, the Clans newest member, brought in as a rouge, was staring down a a pheasant. Upon closer inspection, it's insides where goopy, and black as the nights sky. FidgetFlake picked it up with a moss clump, and carried it out of camp. A few moments later, he returned " I Buried it near the Ivy Patch, we need to check the rest of the prey. " FidgetFlake instructed. " But that's a waist of prey! " CherryTail responded. " We don't need to cut it open all the way, just enough to see if it's pink, or black. " FidgetFlake responded. " If it's Black, put it by my den, it's is good, place it by the leader stump " PickleStem commanded, and al the cats began to grab prey, and cut it slightly open. CherryTail, BlossomHeart, MintFur, FallowTail, SageNose, NettleSplash, and PetalNose all found Black, goopy prey, and only HawkWing, LeafStar, CurlyTail, and SnipGrass, found Pink Prey. " Great StarClan...PebbleShine, did you eat any? " FidgetFlake asked. " J-just a Bite..." PebbleShine mumbled, And HawkWing padded to her side. " Will she be ok...? " HawkWing mewed, his fur stiffening. " She should be, but we should move her to the Medicine den just to be safe..." FidgetFlake responded. " I'll be ok HawkWing.." PebbleShine chuckled. " I want every cat to grab a wad of moss, and go burry the black prey, we will figure out What is causing this, Warriors, check the prey when you catch it, burry it if it's black, and bring it back if it's Pink " PickleStem instructed, and the cats nodded, and trotted of to burry the prey. " I'm going to go tell ShadowClan, you stay here and Check on PebbleShine " FidgetFlake mewed, and quickly trotted out. PickleStem walked to the medicine den, The she was laying in a nest, her white was sprinkled in golden flecks, her Amber eyes soft, and worried. " I think you will be fine PebbleShine, I think if we clear your system- " PickleStem mewed. " I'm not worried about being sick...PickleStem...I think I'm expecting kits..HawkWings...and I'm worried they will get sick " PebbleShine mewed, her ears dropped " Don't worry...I'm going to make sure you and these kits will live..no matter what " PickleStem mewed.
