Chapter 9

Chapter 9

I walked towards my den after a long day of patrolling. I saw the triplets and Gentle run towards me.
"Team C is crazy! You were so lucky to be in team B!" Gentle complained.
"Team A was alright... But it's so boring!" Better said. "Team B was so hard to deal with!"Backstab argued.
"How are you cats arguing? I'm exhausted! " Snicker walked to his den. "Snickers right..." I sighed. We all went to our dens. I watched as Gorgeous and Savage greeted the triplets. Silence stood behind Gorgeous.

"Hello Whiskers!" Fear jumped out from a bush. 'Not again!'
"I really do enjoy destroying you!" Wildfire said.

After a moment, Wildfire turned to Fear. "Ssh! There's a dog guarding the place, we need to be sneaky, Fearless!"
Wildfire said, in a much more childish voice. "Dog on guard? Help!" I called for help. Nobody was there. "I can see that Wildsmoke!" Fear slashed Wildfire at the face. "Hey, I'm the boss!" Wildfire screeched. "Ssh!" Fear covered Wildfires mouth. 'What's going on?' I thought. "You quiet too! How are we going to catnap you with you sleep talking so loud, hmm!?" Fear looked at me. "What do you mean? You aren't catnaping me, I'm not even awake..." I said. "We know that, that's why it's odd that your talking to me!" Fear yelled.
"If yous are meant to make this dream scary...it was way worse before..." I said. "Ugh! Stop talking to her, she's asleep, she's not even talking to us" Wildfire said to Fear. They turned around and started walking....on the spot. "Hey, I am talking to you! And why are you walking on the spot?" I asked. "Where not! We are walking perfectly, not in one stop!" Fear said. "She's not talking to us!" Wildfire slapped Fear with her paw. "Yes, I am...catnappers...Wildfire and Fear..." I said confused. "Hey, that's Wildsmoke and Fearless to you!" Wildfire slapped the top of my head. "Why...? Coz your Wild Smoke, coz smokes not as dangerous as fire?" I asked.
"Uh...yeah" Wildf- smoke said.
"And your Fearless because...?" I cocked my head. "Because I'm fearless, but what's better then not fearing, is being feared!" Fear roared. "Right...can I just say, you two are a waste of time...can I have a not boring, or a not nightmare for once?" I scratched behind my ear bored. "Okay, where here...you can wake up now" Wildsmoke said, as vines wrapped around me. "Um...okay..." I closed my eyes tight, and after a few seconds, I surprisingly woke up.

I looked blankly at my surroundings
I was in the middle of a forest, next to a big, big tree. Two cats stood in front of me. A ginger cat, and a smokey grey cat. "Finally, she's awake!" I recognized Wildsmokes voice from me dream. She was the smokey grey cat. I then realized I was tied with vines.

"Where..where am I" I looked around. "Muahaha!!! You are in Wildfire and Fear fancat base.
"That's the worst criminal base name I have ever heard" I said calmly.
"The word would be disgrace! A person act, or thing that causes shame, reproach, or dishonor or is dishonorable or shameful!" Backstab purposely made it sound worse, as he jumped out of a bush. He hissed wildly. "Leave her alone!" He ran to Wildsmoke and scratched at her face.
"Ouch! Don't you know who I am!" Wildsmoke smacked Backstab off.
"Yes! Your an intruder and a kitnapper, and nobody likes you!!" Backstab growled. "Whoa, that's harsh..." Wildsmoke said. "Come on sis, double prizes!" Fearless jumped towards Backstab. "I know your watching Wildfire! Watch me spill innocents blood!" Wildsmoke said.
I saw a big ball of dirt and cats, as they fought. But when Wildsmoke fell back out of the dirt, it wasn't Backstab she fought with...
"Nobody touches my nephew and gets away with it!" Savage hissed with his scratchy voice. The whole clan jumped out from behind me, as Wildsmoke and Fearless's tails and ears dropped, and eyes widened. They ran off as the clan chased them.
Backstab came from behind me, and cut my vines with his teeth. I untangled myself and looked at Backstab. "Thanks, I would've never escaped if you didn't show up" I thanked him. "Don't mention it." Backstab smiled.
" BLUE!!!" something grabbed my scruff in its mouth. My eyes widened
'What is that!!!'

^^^^^^^

"BLUE!!!" My scruff was in somebody's mouth, but I twisted around anyway. "Blackhawk!" I screeched.
"It feels like it has been forever!" I said.
"Yeah...it has only been like, five days" Blackhawk said. "So, are you a hunter?" I asked. "Duh...these are my team members." He moved to the side, and I saw three dogs.

"Hey, I'm Shepherd" A dog said.
"I am Curious" another said.
"And I am Stubborn" the last dog said.

"Hey, I'm Bluewhiskers" I said happily.
"Why? Your whiskers aren't blue" Curious said curiously. "Um...well, when I was born, there was an aurora, its light looked blue when it shone on my whiskers, so my mom thought it was cool to call me that" I explained. "How old are you?" He asked. Blackhawk put me down and I looked at Curious properly."Um...6 months old...why?" I asked. "Just curious" he said. "Right..." I went to walk away. "Where are you going?" Blackhawk said, licking his toes. "I'm just gonna look for somebody" I said, as I walked away.
"Alex?" I called. "Are you there?" I saw a figure on a tree. "Hey" Alex flew down and landed on my shoulder.
"Did they get my bark?" I asked. "Yep" Alex pulled a big leaf from under his wing.

Dear Bluewhiskers, we're so happy to hear from you. We would like you to know, that we are both very proud of you. You have grown up, not only in age. We are glad you became a patroller, that is what your grandmother was. It is a very good job, and I think you enjoy it very much. I hope we hear from you again. And I don't know how you thought of using this bird to contact us, but it's an excellent idea.
And about the dreams, I am so sorry... But all you need to do is be smart, and fight off whatever is bothering you.
We believe you can do it.
❤Pounce and StripeTail ❤

I smiled. I missed them. I walked to my den, and put the leaf next to my bed. I looked at it for a while, then jumped a little as I heard somebody walk into the den.
"Cool, what's that!" Curious asked.
I let out a big sigh. "I'm gonna call you Nosey. " I walked past him, and out of the den. "Why? Oh, I see!" He said to himself.

I sat down next to a tree. Alex landed next to me. "Need me to send them a letter?" Alex asked impatiently.
"Yeah..." I sighed. I grabbed a leaf from the tree with my mouth. I plucked it off and lay it on the ground. With my claw I wrote:

Mom and StripeTail, I'm so happy to hear from you. I miss you a lot. I will try to be strong and smart, but I need you the whole way.

❤Bluewhiskers❤

I gave the leaf to Alex with my mouth and he grabbed it tight. He flew off with it in his talons. I watched as he flew away. 'I hope I'm not making him do too much' I thought. But I was brocken out of my thoughts, as I saw a female kitten, about my age or maybe a bit older, walk in front of me.
There was something about her. Something different. The way she walked, the way you could see the peacefulness but confusion in her eyes as she looked at stuff, but I couldn't make out what it was. "Hey, I'm Bluewhiskers" I said walking up to her. She didn't look at me, but continued playing with a flower.
"Hello?" I asked, curiously. She didn't say a word. 'Maybe she is mute like Silence?' I thought. But it was different. Almost like she couldn't hear me. I felt sad when I looked at her. It was like she wasn't even here.
"That's Flower" I female cat sat next to me. "She is my kitten... Sort of...I look after her. Her parents died from a disease that was being spread in this clan a few months ago. She had no parents, so I took her in. But the decease got her too. After the disease got cured. But it was too late. She didn't die, but something happened with her. Her brain doesn't work properly. Like half of it is diseased. She never speaks, never seems to listen. Gorgeous suggested ending her suffering by...you know...but I told her to give Flower a chance to live, no matter how miserable it is. We thought about putting her out and burying her beside her parents. But.. The thing is... After the parents died, before Flower caught the disease, and we left Flower alone with her dead parents outside to grieve, but when we came out to bury them, their bodies were gone, only 1 month old Flower, not able to speak yet, remained" The cat said. "That's so sad..." I felt like crying."It is...she's 7 months old, but she can't get a job...so she just sits around. She likes wandering off into the forest... Nobody knows what she does in there..." The cat said.
I sighed, with my ears down. "Anyways, cheer up! I'm Darkpelt! These are my kittens, Runt and Kit" The cat, Darkpelt said, as two kittens padded clumsily beside her. "How old are they?" I asked, looking towards the kittens. "One month old" Darkpelt smiled. "And you?"
"I'm Bluewhiskers, 6 months old" I said. "Your a patrol apprentice, yeah? I'm a hunter" She said. "That's cool!" I said, then yawned. "I'm gonna have a nap, see you later" I said. Darkpelt nodded. I walked for a few minutes, then sat down, and leaned on a tree. "Die" the words echoed through my head. "For I am the mighty Wildfire" I shook my head. ' Leave me alone!' "Never rest, for I will come for you all one day" I tried to stay awake.
"You are too weak..."
