SweetSong laughed, "What makes you think I didn't? I did kill her because she should have loved me!" SweetSong snarled. BlazingFlame felt his fury spilling over, a low snarl rumbled in his throat. "Murder!" BlazingFlame hissed, with that BlazingFlame leaped onto SweetSong, "You should have been dead moons ago!" BlazingFlame hissed. The pair rolled over, BlazingFlame spotted and pinned SweetSong below him. "I want you to run, run away from here and never return." BlazingFlame snarled, he placed a paw over SweetSongs neck, digging in his claws he saw blood welling where his claws lay. "I won't run, for you, BlazingFlame will die at my claws." SweetSong growled. BlazingFlame screeched, lifting up his bloody paw he raked SweetSongs cheek. "You will die a gruesome death SweetSong for you have betrayed the code." BlazingFlame snarled as he stepped off the tom. "You SweetSong are forever exiled from ThunderClan, if you ever return you will be sent away with more than just words." CrowStar hissed as he stepped forward to stand beside BlazingFlame. SweetSong hissed but turned away, Crowstar followed. "Let all cats old enough to catch their own fresh-kill gather under Highledge for a clan meeting!" Crowstar called. BlazingFlame stood next to Crowstar, he watched SweetSong slowly pad away carefully, who knows where he would go next. "SweetSong is no longer welcome in ThunderClan, for he attacked me for no reason. He is no longer the Deputy of this clan." Crowstar meowed. Gasps of shock and horror spiked around the gathered cats, "What do we do if we find him on ThunderClan territory?" Some cat asked. "If that traitor is spotted on ThunderClan territory, I give you permission to use any force necessary to get rid of him." CrowStar meowed, his voice cold as ice. "Who's going to be the Deputy now?" LongEar asked from the crowd. "I'll have to think about that later, but first. TimberFoot, LakeShine, DarkRose, HoneySpark and IvyWhisper escort SweetSong out of ThunderClan territory, if he causes any trouble give him something to remind him of us." CrowStar meowed. The cats CrowStar called out the names of padded off to stand beside SweetSong. "We'll be back shortly after we get rid of this traitor." TimberFoot declared. "From this moment on, any cats who engage with SweetSong for any matter will be punished, unless you have a very good reason." CrowStar meowed. "I would like to speak with longEar, SpiderFang and FireLeap in my den." Crowstar added as he turned tail and disappeared into his den. The chosen cats he called out began making their way towards CrowStars den. BlazingFlame jumped down from the slope, he didn't want to talk to any cat but as soon as he seen LionKit, NightKit and HopeKit racing over to him made him think otherwise. "BlazingFlame, what happened there?" Hopekit squeaked, her hazel eyes were big and round. "SweetSong attacked CrowStar, and he admitted to a few other treacherous crimes he committed moons ago." BlazingFlame meowed, he crouched down and let the kits scramble over him. "What did he do those moons ago?" LionKit asked. "You remember who NightShade is, right?" BlazingFlame asked the kits. The three kits nodded, "She died in a battle that SweetSong took part of. He admitted that he killed her during that battle." BlazingFlame meowed. The kits looked at each other in shock, "He killed his clanmate, isn't that against the code?" Hopekit meowed, tipping her head to one side. BlazingFlame nodded, "Yes, it is Hopekit. Murdering a cat for no reason is against the code." BlazingFlame meowed. CherrySpring padded up to him, "I heard about what happened back there. I just wanted to let you know that you're very brave." CherrySpring meowed sadly. The three kits looked at the she-cat with a mixture of disgust and sympathy. The whole clan must know about what SweetSong said in CrowStars den. "Thank you CherrySpring." BlazingFlame told her stiffly, he didn't trust the she-cat anymore, he was polite when he had to be. CherrySpring dipped her head and began slowly padding away. BlazingFlame flicked her ear and sat up, "I'm sorry about what your father said CherrySpring." BlazingFlame called after her. BlazingFlame didn't like the she-cat but he respected her willingness to try new stuff. CherrySpring stopped and looked over her shoulder, "He's not my father anymore. He means nothing to me now." CherrySpring meowed and padded away. BlazingFlame flicked his ear, something poked his belly. Looking down he saw nothing, the kits were on his sides but nothing hit his belly. Suddenly a sharp pain seared down his belly, it felt as if claws were attacking him, crouching he breathed in shakily. "BlazingFlame, are you okay?" Nightkit asked. BlazingFlame shook his head, "Kits, why don't you find Sunfall and tell him I want to talk to him. Afterwards you three can go play with the other kits." BlazingFlame meowed, he tried to keep the panic out of his voice and somehow he managed too. The kits nodded and scampered off to find the golden tabby, after a few heartbeats Sunfall came padded up to BlazingFlame. "The kits said you wanted to talk to me?" Sunfall meowed and he sat down in front of BlazingFlame. The flame-colored tom nodded, "Yes, I didn't want to scare the kits but my belly feels as if claws are attacking it, the pain is unbearable." BlazingFlame meowed. Sunfall looked at him with fear, his fur spiking up. "Would you mind getting BlackBel-.." BlazingFlame started but his head swirled with fog, he felt as if he was drowning. BlazingFlames' eyes were closed but he heard distant cries, "Sunfall, stand here and let WhiteFang and SmallPelt lift him up." A voice spoke. When did I fall? BlazingFlame thought. Slowly BlazingFlame shifted into unconsciousness.
