Shadow's eyes flickered with frustration, digging his claws into the dirt, Autumn's paws pricked with worry, would Shadow not accept that she was half tribe and half clan?
"Wait- Shadow- please!" Autumn begged, standing, attempting to brush her muzzle against his, but the black tom pulled away, baring his teeth.
"How could you lie to me!" He snarled, standing, Autumn shrank back. "You're a disgrace!" The tom snarled , lashing out as his mate, claws sheathed, tears welling in his bright orange eyes. Then, Shadow bounded off, Autumn watched her mate push past the cats in the clearing.
Sorrow slashed and clawed at Autumn's heart, she looked down at her paws, she slowly climbed into her nest and sobbed herself to sleep.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Light broke into Autumn's den, she lifted her head, expecting to see the glossy black pelt of Shadow, but his nest next to hers was stale with his scent. Autumn let out a soft sigh and sat up, cleaning her pelt and wounds which seemed to be treated. |Larch must've came i and tended to my scars while i asleep last night.| Autumn thought, flicking her tail.
Autumn trudged out of her den and stretched, looking around for Shadow, she saw him talking with Spark. Something pulled at Autumn to talk to him, but she resisted.
"Autumn?" Autumn turned to see Spark.
"Yes?" She answered
"Me and Cloud have been thinking and..." Spark paused for a second. "We think Swallow and Willow are ready to become warriors.
"Very well then, I shall go ahead then?" Autumn asked.
"Yes, we'll get them ready." Spark dipped his head. "Thank you."
"No problem." Autumn yawned and bent down to groom her red fur, she flashed glances around the clearing. No sign of Shadow. Autumn sighed, lifting herself to her paws, she stood, hopping onto the Flame log.
"May all cats who stalk in the ashy shadows and brace the hot fire, please gather beneath the Flamelog for a clan meeting!" Autumn called, and soon, warriors and apprentices gathered around.
"Today, we have two apprentices who will receive their warrior title," Autumn took a second to look down at Swallow and Willow.
"Swallow, you are enthusiastic and loyal, the tribe thanks you for all you've done." Autumn paused. "From this day forward, you will be known as a loyal warrior of The Tribe of Spreading Flames."
"And Willow, you are wise and quick, the tribe thanks you for these traits" Autumn went on. "From this day forward, you will be known as a loyal warrior of The Tribe of Spreading Fire."
Autumn went silent as cats gathered around Swallow and Willow cheering;
"Swallow, Swallow! Willow, Willow!"
"You two will keep a silent vigil tonight," Autumn spoke. "Tribe dismissed!"
