I didn't know what to think of berrytail expecting kits. I was quite angry that they were appleleaps kits. I did not like her at all. Berrytail is arrogant and I swear is half kittypet! Silverpoint and thislefern aren't even close to the kit phase. They got in a huge fight and now won't speak to each other. Berrytail is now the only queen in the nursery. All the other kits had become apprentices.  

I was excited till I revive my full warrior name! Maybe something cool like darkshadow or darkclaw! I can't wait!

I had not seen sandpaw since i last met. He has not yet been to a gathering since I last saw him...maybe some fireclan cat saw us! I have now become overprotective with flowerstream. Blackpaw, a newly apprenticed kit, has shown signs that's he's mooning over her....and the worst part is that she likes him too! I don't like him and I can not imagine myself with any of the toms in moonclan.....well, other than cottonpaw....wait what am I saying! I like cottonpaw and sandpaw? Have I've gone completely mouse-brained! I try to convince myself that neither are good. Sandpaw is a fireclan cat and cottonpaw moonns over swiftpaw.....I have to try to be the best warrior as possable! But my feelings for them both creep into my soul, eating me away bit by bit. Its driving me insain! I have to get out of the apprentice den. I can't bare to look at cottonpaw curled up with swiftpaw. I shoot out of the den and made it to the fresh-kill pile. I sighed. But surprises came that morning that i would not have expectted. I heard wheasing and coughing from gemstar's den. I was the only cat awake in camp. I decided to check it out. I climbed up to the leader den and saw gemstar bleeding heavily. She was weasing bad. I ran over to her.

"gemstar! What happended!" i exclaimed.

She looked at me with tearfull eyes "starclan is calling darkpaw....it was my time to loss my last life today"

"no! Gemstar! I'll go get cloudfoot stay there!" i shouted.

I shoot out of the den. I saw cloudfoot asleep with pinepaw.

"cloudfoot!" i shouted "something's wrong with gemstar!"

Cloudfoot arosse in shock.

"what darkpaw" she hissed "your going to wake the entire forest if you don-"

"Gemstar is dying and i don't know what to do!" i shouted cutting the old medicine cat off.

She glared at me then grabbed some hearbs and ran to gemstar's den. I followed her knowing that she would be able to save her. I ran in the den with gemstar and cloudfoot.

"gemstar...who did this" asked cloudfoot shocked.

Gemstar coughed "a-a b-b-brown c-c-c-cat-t-t....."

"what do you mean" asked cloudfoot trying to stop the bleeding from gemstar's throat.

"do you remeber the other clan that were on the other side of the twoleg place" said gemstar wheasing.

"there's other clans other than the ones here?" i asked.

"yes" said cloudfoot not even paying attention to me.

Gemstar looked at me "you will learn later about them but...."

Gemstar coughed out thick dark red blood.

"cloudfoot, it was a cat called brokenstar....leader from shadowclan who did this" she rasped.

Brokenstar's name echoed in my head. Why would he do this? Kill my leader?

"shadowclan has never been kind cats but, why would they stray far from their border to kill you?" asked cloudfoot.

"i-i do not know but, starclan is calling and i must leave" she rasped.
