WARRIORS A HAWKS LOVE

chapter 11 Leafpaw LOst LIves Hawkfrost

Chapter 11 Leafpaw, lost lives, Hawkfrost,

Leafpaw padded into the forest intent on seeing Hawkfrost. But then Shadowclan's warrior Tawnypelt rushed inside the camp yowling that the Twolegs had brought the monster into the camp and they needed help.

We rushed into the Shadowclan land swiftly, I saw Hawkfrost coming from Riverclan with a patrol of warriors, and I see Squirrelpaw snarl at my mate and I curl my lip. I will protect him at all costs.

I walk over top Hawkfrost and purr in his lovely dark-brown ear, "I've missed you," he nods but is focused on Tallstar and Firestar along with Blackstar. Suddenly Crowpaw rushes from the pack of Windclan warriors and charges up the path when Squirrelpaw and Brambleclaw rush after him they pounce and he snarls that he whether be dead than with the living, poor tom. I see Squirrelpaw cuff him about the ear and Brambleclaw says: "You wish to join the ranks of Starclan than help save the livening? Your clanmates need you! Don't be a mousebrain!"

I turn away and nuzzle Hawkfrost, who blinks at me with warm looking eyes, "I love you, Leafpaw,"

Feeling my fur grow hot I step away from him but then I lean back into him taking comfort in his fur. Yes I'm being bold but no one is watching us anyway with Crowpaw and all.

I sigh as I watch all the warriors going into the Shadowclan camp they rush in and bring out all the kits and elders when I hear a painful yowl so I rush inside the camp to see my father losing a life! I rush to his side and I try to move the branch that has fallen on him.

"Father!" I cry I lean on him listening to his breathe as it rises and falls I know that he is okay that he just lost a life his sixth one at that.

Sometime later I saw him rise up and he looked at me with pain and sorrow in his green gaze then he dashed out as the monster finally came. I wonder what Starclan told him.

I race from the Shadowclan land in time to hear my father say that Blackstar says that he will join Thunderclan and Riverclan with Windclan to leave the Old Forest even though Midnight's sign has not come. All of the cats agreed to meet on the moorland to begin the Journey.

Hawkfrost pov

I love the way Leafpaw's fur pressed up against mine as we slept together for the first time. This was carefully planned for the clans where tired after leaving the forest to going to the mountains. I can still remember how we all rushed cross the muddy moorland after my half-brother and that mousebrained filly of a she-cat yowled to the sky they knew the way to go and it was over the mountains. Then we spent the night at a barn with this cat named Ravenpaw. Shadowclan almost stayed at the barn but that weakling leader Firestar persuaded them not to.

"You my darling are the Queen of evil!" I purr into Leafpaw's ear. She sighs and leans deeper into my fur and I think I hear her purr in agreement but I'm not sure.

As I sleep I wake up in the DF and I sigh more night training but wait there is nobody here! Just mist and shadows along with the usual dark trees. The fur along my spine tingles but I shake my fur and walk deeper into the DF when I realize that I don't want to be here anymore not right now so I force my eyes to open and when I do its dawn and time to move.

I walk over to Leopardstar and I see that she is already awake she nods at me and I call Riverclan together and gave out orders for hunting patrols to go with the other clans. My gaze fell on Leafpaw who was treating cats best she could. With a shake of my head I walked away from her and into the field by the Highstones. Once there I go into the hunting crouch. Drawing my body slowly over the prickly stubble left by the Twolegs, I taste the air for scent of prey. I find a mouse along with a plump dove and a vole. I take the dove to Leafpaw.

"Thank you Hawkfrost," she purrs I want to share the dove with her but her annoying sister comes up to her and they eat the dove. I sigh and leave her alone when I see Brambleclaw walk over to me and I almost faint from shock for I thought my father had come back from the dead!

"Brother, I'm glad to meet you!" he purrs and rubs his broad head along my chin. What the DF? "Half-Brother," I correct him. He steps back and I smirk at him before dashing off leaving him alone and looking positively stupid with his jaws hanging open. Fool! Do you think I feel any kinship towards you?

The days turned into weeks and on the sixteenth moonrise I see tall mountains. I hate snow! With a hiss of annoyance I push into the bank of snow when I hear a mournful yowl. With a glance over this ledge that we all are walking on I see Russetfur struggling to hold onto that apprentice named Smokepaw she made a grab at him but he fell. Blackstar gripped the dark red she-cat in his powerful jaws and hauled her from the edge of the ledge. "He must love her,"

I see Leafpaw jump next and my heart hammered in my chest, thank Starclan she made it! Six other cats make the jump then it's my turn. I look down and see the cavern that took the Shadowclan cat; I look up to see Leafpaw watching me with worry in her light amber eyes. I back up a few paw steps then run and jump. I feel the wind rush past my fur, I straighten out my furry forelegs and gather my paws for the landing. I land in a tumble of paws and tail I roll to a stop and sit up smiling. Then I look over to the rest of the cats, I yowl aloud, "That was fun!" then with my tail raised proudly I stalk off to walk beside Leafpaw.
