Amberflame looked at both the cats with a weird look. And then she spoke. "I don't belong in a clan, you're such good cats, you don't need the likes of me.." Spottedshine stopped and flattened her ears. "Look, Amberflame, I know we've had our differences but you need to come back." Spottedshine begged.
Amberflame flattened her ears and looked away. "No... I don't belong, I just don't!" As she said that, she ran out of sight. Graylight chased after her without thinking. As he was gaining up on her, he jumped on her pinning her to the dirt. He got a better look at her. Wait.. is that blood? There was blood on her face.
Also some long scratches that ran down her side. The scratches had dry blood on them, they were swollen and infected. It's like I don't know her anymore... Graylight thought back to when he first met Amberflame. She was such a sweet, innocent cat.. and now look.. Amberflame's eyes were still glowing in the darkness. As Graylight stared at her while pinning her, Amberflame gritted her teeth and kicked him in the stomach.
The air was knocked out of him as he flew back off of her. He struggled for breath as Spottedshine ran to his side. "Stop trying guys, Swiftleaf doesn't want me there. No one wants me there.. I'm sorry, goodbye.." She ran away again. Swiftleaf? What did she have to do with this? Of course we want her here..
I motioned Spottedshine to get Ravenstar and Swiftleaf to get here, cause I can't get up. I can barely breathe.
Once she got back, Ravenstar was running by Swiftleaf, Swiftleaf had herbs in her jaws. She went to me and placed her paws on my lung area. She pushed down a little bit and I could breathe a little better. "Hmm, it's bruised." Swiftleaf stuttered. She gave me some herbs and pushed one of the most disgusting to me.
"Here, eat this, it will help your lungs." Graylight chewed it slowly, trying not to make a face of how gross it was. He swallowed it and he was still lying on the ground from where he fell. Ravenstar started with the questions. "So, you say that Amberflame is still alive? And her mother, Owltail. Is dead?" Ravenstar said boldly.
Graylight let out a small nod. He sniffed the air and smelled her. "Yea, she has an infected long scratch down her side. She really needs help, and she said something about you, Swiftleaf." Swiftleaf gulped. "W-What did she s-say?"
"She said that you didn't want her there." Graylight said.
Swiftleaf looked off to the side with her eyes. Ravenstar gave Swiftleaf a suspicious look. "What did you say to her?!" Ravenstar yelled. "Well, Starclan gave me a message to make my clanmates stay away from her. That she's dangerous. I told her about this and she stormed off."
All the cats shot her a glare. "Why tell her? You know that would happen! No wonder she's dangerous now!" Graylight snapped. Swiftleaf met his hostility. "She was dangerous before and she'll always be! I'm just trying to protect my clan!" Swiftleaf spat. Ravenstar puffed out his chest at her. "You don't tell your clanmates stuff like that. She was fine before. You had no right to send her away."
Swiftleaf stared down at her paws with sadness. Graylight soon got up, he's able to breathe but not perfectly. And he has a bruise on his chest. "We need t-to get her b-back." Graylight stuttered. All of then looked at him, when Ravenstar spoke. "We aren't letting her go so easily, don't worry we will find her, we will look starting tomorrow.."
