FallenLeaves was coming out of the tree medecine cats call their den , the sun was already hight and everyone was at their duties , elders were arguing , warriors hunting or patrolling , apprentices training , queens talking , kits rolling in the dirt.
After the "GingerPelt" incident , no one was confortable around the young cat , however , some of them still trusted him for the healing , but it's the only thing people talk about with him. He didn't had the time to go and have a talk with his older siblings , both of Gingerpelt and NightSpike were busy with their lives , or simply were uninterested of having a conversation with FallenLeaves.
NightSpike was trying his best to proove himself to Amberstar , he wanted to take DeadBriar's place as deputy so badly , but never got the Leader's attention.
All of that thinkng made FallenLeaves head spin , so many things wrong in the clan are starting to destroy it , but it wasn't his job regardless of his connection with the Leader , it wasn't him who should bring all that to her.
A few pawsteps away was OtterSight , standing , looking straight into FallenLeaves eyes. No emotions coming from him , we could tell he didn't slept for days , his eyes were halfclosed , his face more serious than usual , a few spots of fur were mising on his paws leaving place to hidious scars. FallenLeaves stopped walking intrigued by the blue cat , "Do , you need something ?" He pointed with his small paws the injuries , OtterSight , surprised by the cat's reaction backed of a little , and with his monotone voice said "I'm , not here for that actually."
"It seems pretty deep however , you should come in the medecine den when i'll finish collecting herbs 'm pretty sure i can help you with that." FallenLeaves didn't actually listened the warrior.
"I don't need to be heal , i'm here to talk." The brown cat stopped , looking around , people were watching and over hearing. " Well , started FallenLeaves with a huge smile and pepy voice , Of course you can come with me in the medecine den! it will be a pleasure to talk with you!" The warrior was surprised by that sudden change , but started to lead the way and noticed people wispering , until he saw LonelyPetal talking with an angry look to GingerPelt looking at them walk away.
Inside the den , Clay' s ghost faded , thank starclan that sassy calico left. The warrior stopped at the messy bed of old grass "You don't clean this very often , why ?" he said ,
"I , didn't have the time to , busy days you know?" answered the brown cat with an awkward smile , "If you need i can ask Frogpaw to clean it for you , it's part of the apprentice job to make sure that the-" "Don't worry , i know, interrupt FallenLeaves with a laught , So , what do you wanted so badly to talk about ?"
OtterSight sighed , and look at the young cat , worried but confident said , "I , truly believe , you are not the cause of , he paused thinking, OwlKit , BlueKit and DustKit...death." Before continuing , he prefered to pause his monologue. FallenLeaves was looking at him , emotionless , "I see you gave them names , it fits them." , "Yea.. Anyway , Ginger keeps saying it's your fault if they.. But i'm pretty sure it's all a lie , if it was truly you , she would have said more about why it's you or , or" Tears dripping on his cheeks , OtterSight looked back to the tired Medecine Cat , "I deeply love my kits. All of them. And i wan't to know , what happen to the 3 of them you apparently killed."
FallenLeaves was shocked by the warrior request , GingerPelt strictly asked him not to talk about this , and even if she already betrayed him , he wasn't sure if he could betray her back. Until , DeadBriar walks in surprised to see OtterSight crying , he looked at the pair confused , "FallenLeaves , as you may know you have to train a new medecine cat before becoming an apprentice , again. And AmberStar and I , have choosen a kit we think , might be suited for your job."
FallenLeaves was looking dead in the eyes of DeadBriar , he was scared about what OtterSight might think of him now , Their Deputy and their Leader was just insulting FallenLeaves at this point , treating him as a mique excuse for a medecine cat.
OtterSight was shocked about the news , "How can you treat FallenLeaves like that ? He does an amazing job , a job none of us could do." DeadBriar growled at the tired warrior , "You are in no place to judge , plus , why would you defend a kit murderer, he killed your kit's remember ? HE failed to save LonelyPetal first litter. You are in no right to defend him. He is problematic."
