Warriors Secrets of Shadows: Alpha and Omega

Chapter 17

A damp cold from rain that had fallen earlier in the day blew through the trees. A couple of cats just finished sharpening their claws on the fangs of a dead fox. Cats ears flattened as the gazed around the trees. "See any wolves?"
"No.." Leafpelt replied, then turned to his father.
"Remember. If you see wolves, have your claws unsheathed and ready." Feralstorm meowed.
Some of the cats nodded. "What happenes if they corner us?" meowed the she-cat behind Leafpelt. "That's where Dawnreed added her own personal touch to this.." Blackflight meowed to Larchwing.
"Speaking of which where is she?" Liontail asked. Suddenly, a dreadful snarling made each cat tense. A wolf growled and ran straight for them. "Feralstorm!" Ottertail wailed.
"Hold your forms." He ordered. The wolf was near.
Cats unsheathed their claws and looked at the wolf with wide eyes. Then, Dawnreed came from some undergrowth and bit hard on the wolf's leg. Ryenose, Stormclaw, Petaldust, Flintclaw, Shadowrip, Cloudfur, Sunsetclaw, Jayfang, and Windfur did the same. "Attack!" Feralstorm yowled.
Cats shot towards the wolf with outstreched claws.
"Leave our Clans alone!" yowled Dawnreed.
It seemed the creature's reply to her demand was a pained growl. The cats continued attacking the wolf with shrieks and hisses.
It howled out and bit the nearest cat, Clawfoot, who was yowling out in blood curdling agony, sustaining a horrible wound.
"Clawfoot!" yowled Larchwing.
"Clawfoot no!" Cloudfur wailed.
"Somecat help him!" Jayfang yowled. Sunsetclaw bounded over to him. "Hang on Clawfoot.." He mewed and heaved the brown and white tabby up alongside Petaldust who was offering. The wolf whimpered running away from the clan cats deep into the forest. "Glad that's over.." Shadowrip rumbled.
"I-I can't move.." The one eyed tom managed to mew.
"You're going to be okay my love..." Cloudfur meowed licking the tom's ear. "We need to get back to camp and to Hollyheart, Mudpaw, Thrushberry, and Willowpelt quickly." Dawnreed meowed.
They all carried Clawfoot back towards the camp, hoping that Clawfoot would survive.

"What do you mean he may not be able to heal and live?" Cloudfur snarled in question to Willowpelt.
"I mean exactly what I say." The tan tabby medicine cat replied.
The young she-cat bristled with fury, her white pelt spiking along her back. "Oh calm down! Death is a part of life so deal with it!" Willowpelt snapped. Cloudfur growled and stalked out of the den, her tail lashing from side to side. Her brother Sunsetclaw followed after her. She was bristling and spitting in fury.
"Cloudfur? I'm really sorry about Clawfoot." He mewed gently.
Cloudfur sat down grumbling. Their mother, Flameshadow, rested her black tail tip on her daughter's shoulder. Cloudfur shrugged it away, not wanting it.
"Willowpelt just doesn't know what she's talking about.. I'm sure Clawfoot will heal from his wounds and live." Sunsetclaw meowed.
Cloudfur sighed. "I don't know.."
Thrushberry padded up. "His recovery chances are unsure but we're trying." She mewed.
Cloudfur flattened her ears. A shriek broke out all of a sudden. Everycat turned their heads bristling.
"It's Sparkkit! Sparkkit's not in camp!" Rosetail cried.
Her mate walked over to her. "We'll find him. I'm sure he's okay." He promised.
She burried her face into his shoulder. Whitestar yowled, "Find the kit! We will not rest until he is found!"
"Yes Whitestar!" Dawnreed meowed as she and the others pelted behind her. Others stayed in camp incase of Sparkkit's return or a attack.
"Sniff around and see what you can pick up.." She told them.
Petaldust and Brachspots sniffed near a fallen tree trying to find his scent. Windfur looked up and flicked an ear. "What is it?" Sedgeclaw asked.
"I though I heard, something." the white pelted she-cat meowed.
"Help! Help!" A tiny voice shouted out. "Sparkkit!?" Windfur called out loudly. "Help me! Help me!" The kit cried out. "Come on!" Dawnreed yowled to the patrol.
They all followed behind her and Windfur.
"Sparkkit!" Windfur yowled.
The brown furred kit was running from a wolf, slightly smaller than the ones the cats usually chase away.
"Get him!" Windfur yowled to the warriors as she dashed towards the smaller wolf. Dawnreed and Sedgeclaw snarled and followed after her. Petaldust grabbed Sparkkit by the scruff.
Snarling, Windfur shot towards the wolf's side with outstretched claws. The wolf got its leg tangled in a branch and fell down.
Windfur growled as she slowed and narrowed eyes at the wolf. "It's stuck." she hissed.
"Yes, so let's attack it already!" Sedgeclaw yowled.
Windfur stared at the semi-small-large helpless creature.
"It is young." Dawnreed observed.
"Should we kill it? It's mother would proably attack us.." Flintclaw mewed. "No. We'll let it go." Windfur replied to the tom.
