Blackstar's Deputyship 2#

Chapter 10: Uncle And Nephew

"Alright Dawnpaw, you can go get something to eat" Blackfoot said.

Dawnpaw ran off.

Featherstorm walked over to him, "Thank you for being gentle with her" she said.

Blackfoot nodded, "I won't start any actual training until she is six moons, which she will be, the next moon."

Featherstorm gave a small smile, "She is my last kit, Volepaw and Mosspaw are dead, I can't bear the thought of losing her."

"I will protect her with my life" Blackfoot vowed.

Crowtail walked past him, "When Brokenstar dies, It will take a long time for the clans to forget the blood that we spilt."

Blackfoot's eyes widened, Before there is peace, two leaders shall rise and Shadow will be feared forever.

"Two leaders" he breathed.

"What was that?" Featherstorm asked.

He shook his head, "Nothing, I gotta go, bye."

He ran off out of camp and sat down beside a tree stump.

He closed his eyes to think.

Two leaders... Brokenstar must be the first, but... who is the second?

A loud snap broke his thoughts, he turned around, "Who's there?"

A little kit stepped out and he relaxed, "Badgerkit, what are you doing?" He purred.

His little nephew clumsliy ran over to him and leaped onto his giant paws.

"I wanna play" he giggled.

Blackfoot sighed, "Sorry Badgerpaw, I'm busy" he started to turn away.

Badgerkit nipped his paw, "I wanna play" he demanded.

"Then go and play, I'm not stopping you" he said frowning.

The little kit started to climb up his leg, "I wanna play with you."

"With me?" He asked suprised.

"Yes, I wanna play with you Uncle Blackfoot."

Blackfoot froze and looked at him.

He knows my name...

Blackfoot bowed his head to Badgerkit so he was eye-to-eye with him.

"You know my name" he whispered.

Badgerkit nodded, "Yes I do, your my mama's big brother, you and Uncle Flintfang."

Blackfoot felt the pain in his chest return, My kits would call me father, and Russetfur, they would call her mama. But that can never happen.

He laid down, and alowed Badgerkit to cuddle at his belly.

"What do you want to play?" He asked.

Badgerkit gave an evil grin, "Your a WindClan warrior! Get of my territory, unless you wan't to face the wrath of Badgerstar!" He yowled and smashed into his side.

Blackfoot shut his eyes and gritted his teeth in pain.

Badgerkit sat up, "Did I hurt you Uncle Blackfoot" he asked.

Blackfoot shook his head, "No Badgerkit, I'm just a little sore from training."

Badgerkit nodded and snuggled at his belly again, rubbing agaist him, "I wanna nap."

Blackfoot smiled, to be honest, he did too.

Gently he picked Badgerkit up and carried him into camp.

He went to the nursery where Fernshade was washing herself, she stopped when she saw him and Badgerkit.

"It's alright, he just needs a nap" he assured her.

Fernshade sighed and laid down.

Badgerkit started moving, "I'm hungry!" He wailed.

Blackfoot purred, "I thought you were tired."

He put Badgerkit down and he looked at him with bright wide amber eyes, "I'm hungry now."

He ran into Fernshade pumbling into her belly and began to roughly suckle.

She gasped and gritted her teeth.

"Hey, hey be carful with your mother" He gently but firmly scolded.

Badgerkit nodded, "Sorry Uncle Blackfoot" he said then went back to suckling a lot more gently.

Fernshade looked up at him, "Thank you" she whispered.

"Your welcome, I'm going to take a nap as well" he yawned.

As he went to his nest and fell asleep, a thought came over him, Brokenstar is going to make him an apprentice next moon.

Now I'm updating more. I wanted to make a part where Blackfoot and Badgerkit are having fun before he becomes an apprentice. Also Blackfoot has figured out a little part of the prophecy.
