---Skypaw---

I awoke feeling a small body next to mine. 'Wait what!?' I thought but then I remembered what happened yesterday and I instantly felt more relaxed. Then I felt the kit stir and he looked up at me with his blue eyes. "Hi mama" he said sleepily. "Do you have a name?" I asked. His face scrunched up like he was thinking and he meowed "no"
"Well then I will name you..."

I thought for a couple heartbeats then the name came to me. "How about I name you GreyKit? Because of your fur?" I meowed and he nodded. "allright how about I show you the camp?" He immediately got to his paws. "Cmon lets go!" He squealed and I got up trying not to wake anyone else up.

Once I got outside I saw that the morning patrol hadn't left yet and Greykit was bounding toward them. "Greykit! Come back here!" I meowed but to avail he already pounced on Stormpaw. I ran over and dragged Greykit off of him.

"S-sorry about that!" I meowed nervously. "It's all right" I noticed that he wasn't looking me in the eye. We then locked eyes and we stayed looking at each other for starclan knows how long before I heard a voice. "Hey lovebirds break it up I need Stormpaw for the patrol." Whitetail the deputy sat by the talltree licking his paw.

I looked away shyly and grabbed Greykit by the scruff bringing him into the apprentices den. Once I got there I saw Featherpaw talking to Spottedpaw when she seen me she grinned and meowed. "Someone has a crush!" I looked away embarrassed. "N-no" I tried to defend myself but Greykit betrayed me. "mama didn't stop looking until a scary cat said something." Featherpaw let out a mrrow of laughter.

"I told you!" she meowed "and it looks like someone else does too" she pointed her tail toward the entrance directly at Stormpaw. "hey have you seen Cinderpaw?" I asked changing the subject. "No not since last night" Spottedpaw meowed. 'I wonder where she is' I thought. "Hey Skypaw! I need you" I heard my mentor meow through the entrance.

I padded out of the den Greykit close behind. "What?" I asked. "Get rid of the elders tics." She meowed. "Ok" i said and I padded to the Medicine cat den to find Waterpaw laying on her back. "Hey Waterpaw!" I yowled. And Waterpaw looked at me. "Hmmm?" She meowed. "I need some mouse bile." "Ok I'll get you some" she left the den and got a mouse and headed over to the elders den.

She got the mouse and got the bile while showing Me how to get it myself Then Waterpaw left. While I was getting ticks off of Sweetfur, sweetfur was telling a story on her days as a warrior. Greykit was listening closely, and once I was done Sweetfur I moved on to Stubbyleg.

When I finished cleaning the elders it was sunhigh so me and Greykit went to the fresh kill pile to eat. I grabbed a vole for myself and a mouse for Greykit. (Greykit is about 5 moons old) "Greykit? Can you eat it yourself?" I asked him and he nodded and started eating the mouse and I ate my vole.

When we finished eating I asked Icefur to watch Greykit for a little while I talked to Ivystar. I padded toward Ivystar who was sitting by her den. "Ivystar? Can I talk to you?" I meowed. "Yes follow me" we padded into the den down the passage until we reached an opening Ivystar sat down and licked her paw.

"So what did you want to talk about?" Ivystar meowed. "Well since I am taking care of Greykit is my training delayed?" I asked. "Sadly yes but since he is about 5 moons or what Petalheart told us you will only be delayed about 1 moon so it won't be that bad or if you learn things fast enough you can be a warrior on time" she answered calmly.

"Ok and have you seen Cinderpaw?" I meowed. "No I haven't seen her since yesterday" Ivystar looked worried. "Should we send a patrol?" I asked. "Yeah call Whitetail and tell him to organize one." "Ok"

I padded out of the den and saw whitetail by the fresh kill pile. "Hey Whitetail!" I called. "Yeah?" He yelled back. "Ivystar want you to send a search patrol for Cinderpaw!" By now I was in front of him. "Ok" was all he said. Then he padded off calling names of warriors. "Ok I need Mousewhisker...." I left and got Greykit from Icefur. "Thanks Icefur!" I meowed and I walked to the small pond by the talltree and got a drink and Greykit did the same.

---with the patrol---

Mousewhisker, Icefur, Featherpaw and whitetail were padding through the undergrowth sniffing trying to find Cinderpaw when they heard a yowl coming form the border. They all ran toward the sound to find Cinderpaw being beat up by three grown swiftclan cats.

Whitetail ran ahead and yowled "attack!" But seeing the threat the 3 warriors ran off leaving Cinderpaw laying on her side bleeding from a gash on her throat. Featherpaw ran to her and saw the gash.

"Oh no someone get Petalheart or Waterpaw now!" Featherpaw yowled. But it was to late "I w-was get-getting revenge but there was too many" Cinderpaw chocked out. "Tell Skypaw I love her" once Cinderpaw said that her body went limp and her breathing stopped. "NOOOOOOO!" Featherpaw yowled. The four cats picked up Cinderpaw's body and dragged it back to camp. Once they got there they heard a yowl. "CINDERPAW NOOOOOO!"

---Skypaw---

I was in the apprentices den washing Greykit and myself when I heard that the patrol had come back I then padded out of the den to find them dragging Cinderpaw.
"CINDERPAW NOOOOOO!" I yowled and ran toward her. 'Why me?!' I thought While I laid down next to my dead sister. I stayed there till nightfall and then I went with the elders to bury my sister.

When we got back I crept in my nest and Greykit curled up beside me. Soon after I fell asleep but just before I felt another cat come and lay on the other side of Greykit. i opened my mouth to see who it was. '(Sniff) hmm smells like (sniff) Stormpaw?' I thought and as I drifted off to sleep.
******
I know what your thinking my peeps. 'Ohhhh seems like Stormpaw likes Skypaw' I'm sorry I needed to give Skypaw a mate duh! It keeps the plot good...ish. Anyway I changed a few things so read the story over again and spot those changes. So yeah thanks for reading. I also made this chapter super long about 1174 words. Yay!
