"Is Smoky okay?" Ginger asked, "Is she sick or something? Because she doesn't usually act like this."

"Leave me alone!" Smoky hissed and ran off.

"I don't know. Just leave her be... I think she's mad at me because I stopped talking to her. But she didn't act like she wanted to talk anyways." Glacier just walked back to his den.

"Does it have something to do with Darkrise clan? She's acting strange." Luna sounded worried.

"She probably just wants to stay in her den, leave her alone." Leaf told her.

"I think she's angry about being connected to Darkrise clan." Honeybee interrupted.

"Well, there isn't anything we can do about that. So, she should stop complaining." Glacier responded.

Smoky ran to her den. She just wanted to be alone.

Glacier had to jump in front of Ginger to stop her from running after her. She wanted to help, but there wasn't anything the tribe could do for Smoky.

"Well, I think she feels left out as well. From the tribe and from her friends. Not many of the other cats pay attention to her anymore, it's kind of sad." Luna was talking to Honeybee about their opinions.

Smoky seemed to hate other cats talking about her in this way. She felt left out and lonely, she didn't fit in with other cats because of her own emotions and a lot of them saw her as mean. And some cats worried too much - like Ginger always trying to help her with her feelings. The quest cats were always a strange group anyways. Glacier was always seen as the leader; he was the smart one who looked out for his friends. Ginger was always nice and helpful and had too much energy sometimes. Smoky was the one that would always start a fight to protect her tribe, and also tried her best to look out for her friends. Maybe she was never meant to fit in with all the others.

She watched the younger cats sometimes, wondering what she did wrong. It was nice to see the clans and tribes become friends, but it made her feel worse about herself.

"There has to be a way to free Smoky from Darkrise clan, right? She doesn't deserve to be connected to her enemies for the rest of her life." Tiger spoke up.

"I don't know. Haunted freed herself by breaking the mirror. What can Smoky do?" Luna asked.

"We probably shouldn't go to Haunted for answers about Darkrise clan. She must be tired of answering us already." Honeybee replied.

"Yeah. I guess we shouldn't annoy her anymore." Luna joked.

"Probably not. Although she doesn't seem to mind questions." Tiger sat down and yawned.

"The sun isn't even going down yet, and you're already tired? How much work do Sunflare cats even have to do?" Honeybee asked, "Right, no more questions. I guess you can just take a nap."
