A.N:Ok I am so sorry I haven't updated in a while, I've just been very busy, so here you go and I hope you like it! Also a warning, it's kinda sad.~~~
         Mossfire shoved passed the tom and ran towards the camp, begging that that wasn't his last life. She tripped over a rock, tumbling down a hill, landing hard. The grey and white deputy quickly got back up and resumed running, vaguely hearing Shadowsky calling her from somewhere behind her. She barreled into camp and sniffed the air, flinging herself up the rocks that led to her beloved leader's den.
No... something's wrong... he's not moving, not waking up like he did last time he lost a life... was... was Littlestar actually dead?
"L-Littlestar?" She said quietly her ears pinned back and her body shaking. Then she noticed the small brown figure of Fawngaze, the medicine cat. "Why...why isn't he waking up?" she asked her words shaky and her eyes locked on the brown and white body in the den, tears slipping down her face.
"I'm sorry..." the old medicine cat said "that... was his last life"
"What?" Mossfire said "no... no... he's still alive, he just needs more time!" The tabby cat in front of her just shook her head.
    The she-cat yowled and flung herself onto the tom's body, she licked his cold fur, in an attempt to wake him up. Littlestar was like a father to her. After her rouge parents abandoned her, Littlestar and Speckledwind, his mate, had taken her in to raise her with their litter, of corse he was Littletail back then... but that's not the point.
     She buried her nose in his fur and yowled in grief, "no!" She sobbed "you can't be dead! You have to be here with me! You can't just leave me like this! What about Minmowsplash and Moleblaze? We just lost Speckledwind why do you have to go now!"
     She felt a tail on her sholder "it'll be alright, " Fawngaze said "but right now, they need you" she gestured out of the den to where most of the clan had gathered to see what what happening. "your their leader now"
     "But... but I'm not ment to be leader yet..." Mossfire said softly, looking up at the medicine cat's blue eyes.
      "Yes you are" she said "but you have to show them that"
    Mossfire stood shakily and padded slowly out of the den onto a branch growing out of the side of the rocks. She took a deep breath and looked out at the already gathered clan. "I have some... despairing news" she started slowly, feeling the clan watching her "Littlestar... is dead"
     Yowls of shock and grief erupted from the crowed. Just as Mossfire got them to quiet down, more yowls erupted, directed to the entrance as Desertclaw and Rabbitfeather appeared.
"Great more trouble" Mossfire mumbled "what do you want?" She asked the two Viperclan cats.
"Falconstar's going to attack!" Desertclaw yowled and the clearing was thrown into chaos.
