Shadow walked into the leader's den with the group of cats. There was barely enough room for the eight cats but they all fit somehow. Shadow stayed close to Mud and Brown as she felt Heatrumble's eyes on her. She felt bad for the tom who used to be her best friend and hunting buddy, but she could never be close to him again.

"Start with your story Shadow. We are all here to listen." Junglestar spoke leaving it to the dark grey shecat whose eyes where basically all you could see of her in the dark light.

"It started when you banished us. Eagle went out to hunt and came back at night saying we could go and explore. We ran into a pack of rouges, Brown and Mud's family, and I was traded for my sister to be let free. I stayed with them for two moons until a fox came. I was out for a while and I learned some secrets from StarClan. Sunwish showed me her death, that whoever you accused did not do it but Eagle did it. Then she showed me how you lost two of your lives. It was Eagle again. She then showed me how I almost lost Mud but he somehow escaped from my evil sister.

"For two moons I was out. I woke up and had to help the mother of our pack, Muddle, give birth to a huge litter of kits. Brown and I had an idea that since Mud escaped to the river, he might be in one of the clans. It took around a moon or so to finally put it in action. We followed the river from our territory to BoneClan. Blossomstar welcomed us and told us Flarestar had gotten a rouge around the time we lost him.

"After we learned of that information, Brown and I headed to MistClan. I ended up fighting a shecat there and defeating her so I could find Mud. We had a small rest after they treated my wounds and I saw StarClan again. Both Ripplespeck and Ferretwillow are in StarClan now and Eagle killed them both. She killed them quickly not making them suffer but they are telling me I have to kill her now. They also warned me that she might be heading for my pack of rouges next and there is only one fighter there at the moment." Shadow explained the whole story and took a deep breath as she looked at everyone.

Her old friend looked sad that his mentor was dead. The leader looked sad that his sister was dead. Bouldervine and Berrybreeze started to cry as they heard that their son was dead. It seemed that only Morningflash was not affected as she had no true connection to any of the cats.

"We will get prepared in case she comes back here. If you need to, come in our territory with your pack and we will protect you." Junglestar said dipping his head for the information.
