Mountainpaw
I pad around the clearing, not really sure what to do.I look over at Wiskerpaw who is asleep in his nest.
"Mountainpaw, you're coming on a patrol with me. A border patrol." Leaffang says calmly.
"YES! I mean ok." I reply a little to excited. He flicks his tail and pads off out of clan camp. I trot past Dewpaw and Grapepaw sharing tounges and I quickly nod.
I pelt towards the Mapleclan terrotory marker and I scent something different. Kit!
"Leaffang!" I call "there is a kit somewhere!" At the sound of the word kit the rest of the patrol swiftly arrives. Suddenly, I here a small mew amongst the bushes. I part the leaves and I see a kit tangled up. I stare in shock.
"Fernkit?" We meow is unison.
"What happened to you?" I ask in fear seeing all the scars on us.
"A huge she-cat with one purple eye and one blue eye told me and Rosekit that we could be warriors sooner if we went with her. Then; oneday she disappeared and never came back to the caves." Fernkit explains cowardly. She looks at each one of us. Waiting for a reply.
"I. That. I know who that was..." I finally say.
"Who?" She pleads for me to answer.
"That was Topaztail, she was killing cats in our clan and she killed Quartzflower your older sister. Sageclaw killed her. Also, where is Rosekit?" I say hoping they are both fine. Suddenly we all hear small coughs and a thin kit that you can see the each rib on steps out and collapses onto the ground.
"That's Rosekit. We were starved down there. We were told that warriors hunt for themselves. I hunted well, but when I went to share with Rosekit I was told not to." Fernkit explains quickly.
"Mountainpaw. Take Rosekit to the medicine cat den Sanddollarpelt will help her. Fernkit can you stay as close to them as possible. You need to be checked over." Leaffang orders as they carry on with the border patrol. I pick up Rosekit by the scruff and I speed off towards camp.
"You're so fast!" Fernkit complements as she catches up.
"Am I too fast for you?" I mew worriedly
"No." She pants so we pelt off again.
"Sanddollarpelt! We need you to help Rosekit!" I say hoping panick isn't in my voice.
"The kits are back!? I must check them over! They must explain everything." She mews back.
I place Rosekit's small body into the medicine den on moss and I nudge Fernkit in. I pad off. I hope they will be ok.
