Warriors: The Return Of The Greatest Heroes

27. Yellowpaw Trapped

Firepaw knew the other apprentices would try to find him. That's just who they were.

But he didn't want to be found. Ever.

He ran down into the tunnels that night. Down in the deep, deep pit of nothingness. Hoping never to be found ever again.

-

Hollypaw darted into the tunnels, trying to sniff out the scent belonging to Firepaw. "The dirt and mud is making his scent hard to distinguish." she noticed.

"Can you find him?" Sandpaw asked, suddenly worried.

"I'll try," Hollypaw started sniffing around.

And so did the other apprentices.

Graypaw paused for a moment. "Does anyone else think that Firepaw totally over-reacted?"

All of the other apprentices rose their tails in agreement.

"This way!" Hollypaw broke into a run down a tunnel.

Sandpaw's legs carried her faster than ever before, her eyes glittering with hope.

The other apprentices followed not a moment to soon. Right when Ravenpaw left the area, the tunnel collapsed. On Yellowpaw's tail.

"Yellowpaw!" Bluepaw raced back.

"Go." Yellowpaw ordered. "The longer you wait, the more distance Firepaw covers. I can dig myself out."

Looking reluctant, the other apprentices left Yellowpaw to dig herself out.

When the other apprentices were out of hearing range, a new voice sounded. "Yellowpaw, so brave, but so utterly alone and vulnerable."

"Show yourself!" Yellowpaw ordered.

A dark figure stepped out.

"Tigerpaw..." Yellowpaw breathed.

"No,"

"No what?" the gray she-cat asked.

"Tigerclaw."

-

"Let all cats old enough to -insert WindClan phrase- join beneath the whateverit'scalled for a clan meeting!" Antstar called. (AN: Sorry, I don't know much about WindClan clan meetings. :()

Leafkit, Tallkit, and Crowkit stood side by side, pelts groomed.

"Leafkit, Tallkit, and Crowkit have reached the age of six moons and are ready to be apprenticed. Please come forward." Antstar beckoned his kits with his tail.

"Until she has earned her warrior name, this apprentice will be known as Leafpaw. Kestrelleap, you are ready for your first apprentice. I expect you will pass down everything you know to Leafpaw." they touched noses. "Until he has earned his warrior name, this apprentice will be known as Crowpaw. Brightskip, you are ready for yet another apprentice. I had Seedfoot as your mentor, and I expect you to pass down everything you learned from him." they touched noses. "Until he has earned his warrior name, this apprentice will be known as Tallpaw. Cloudtail, you have had a great apprenticeship, and have been my best hunter and fighter since you were a kit, as if you had previous training before you were born. You will pass down all you know to Tallpaw." Tallpaw looked alarmed as Antstar announced Cloudtail, the apprentices never noticed him. As they touched noses, Cloudtail's scent was unmistakenly familiar. Another reborn. From Leafpaw's former clan.

Oh, what an adventure will they have.

Again, sorry for the long update. Don't forget to comment. You know the drill. XD
