Welcome to ThunderClan.

I'm Flickerflame- I think Silversea mentioned you before. You're a reader! I've never heard of that before. What's a reader? I must ask Silversea- later.

"-And Flickerflame, you will go on a border patrol." Thornclaw announced. He's a golden tom with green eyes- you'll never be able to disobey him again when you look in his eyes- He's deputy, after all, a loyal and pure cat.

I dipped my head in respect, cantering out of the camp with my patrol, out the bramble tunnel and into the trees. I barely paid attention. Of course, readers gotta be entertained-

"Will you just watch out?" Marrowclaw snapped, as I bumped into him. I sighed quietly. Ah well, warriors be warriors.
"Alright, I'm sorry!" I muttered. I hope Silversea was there tonight.

"Tonight, we lead a battle to get back SunningRocks!" Purestar called. I heard cheers erupt around camp, echoing up into the trees. I joined in halfheartedly- Silversea would be there. I just couldn't stop the flow of thoughts- She- laying wounded, hurt, or... KILLED by a fellow ThunderClan warrior. I ate alone, unable to bear eating with another- it could just be the one who kills Silversea.

***

Purestar lead us- all the warriors- to SunningRocks. He hooked his pure white tail up in the air, signaling cautiousness. We were near. RiverClan cats were also near- a scent in the air, strong and sharp.

They knew we were here.

"ThunderClan, attack!" Purestar screeched, and we leapt into the RiverClan warriors. I saw a flash of silver- blue eyes- Silversea! She couldn't die! But I knew I couldn't do anything to help. I just battled on, unable to think.

A yowl split the air all of a sudden.

"Retreat! We yield, ThunderClan! Take SunningRocks!"

Jetstar herded his clan away, and they splashed into the river, a mass of pelts. I glanced around. SunningRocks was a mess- blood and fur everywhere. And- a silver pelt. Wait- It COULDN'T be! Silversea? And they just left her...? 

"Who's this?" Purestar trotted over to Silversea.
"RiverClan warrior," Thornclaw growled.

"It's-It's Silversea, I saw her at the gathering a few times," I called. I didn't reveal anything else. I also wondered who... killed her.

It's the end of the story. I can't speak more about this-

We claimed SunningRocks, but lost it yet again! I had a rant about this- but I got over it...
I couldn't get over Silversea, though.

The End.
{Sorry that it's so short. I'm just finishing a few ends of the line.}
