The Distress

Snowkit heard her heart thumping as her sister, Robinpaw looking downwards at her, like she was younger. But im not! ‘’Snowkit, Your new name will be Snowpaw.” Then she paused, then looked at Maplewhisker “Maplewhisker, your mentor was Reedtail, and he is now clan deputy. Carry on the courage to Snowpaw.’’ Maplewhisker walked over to Snowpaw, to lean down and touch noses with Snowpaw. “Snowpaw! Robinpaw!”

Robinpaw rushed up, wailing to her sister “I bet i can catch the fastest rabbit in the forest!” Robionpaw declared. Snowpaw dared to add “And i can catch the plumpest mouse throughout the twoleg nest!” Robinpaw gave her a loud snort as Maplewhisker padded up “You two better rest, you have a long day ahead of you.”

They walked into the apprentince den, overhearing ‘’I, Autumnstar of Thunderclan, now exile Brokenkit!” She added with elegant in her voice. “Autumnkit, go back to your nest!” Autumnkit gave her a sorry nod and went to her nest, mumuring.

She snorted to Robinpaw ‘’Autumnkit got the ‘be quiet!’” Robinpaw turned his head, Confused. Doesn’t she hear that?

She jumped to her new nest, snuggling it with warmth and no scent of anyone being their. ‘’Fresh bedding!” She mumured, as Blackpaw turned his head and explained “We made it extra nice for you!” Featherpaw put in “We didn’t have company in days! We’re so glad your here!” As the senior apprentinces gave a small purr, she added “Thanks!” As she went to sleep.

Snowpaw yawned then glared out of her den, seeing Featherpaw trembling, and people surrounding her. She set her paws out of her den, light as a mouse. Then she heard Featherpaw shake

‘’Th-then de-a-ad-furleapt on re-reedtail.. Then..’’ Robinpaw whispered ‘’She fighted Stoneclan! If i was there-’’ Her brother was quieted by the sound of Featherpaw falling onto the ground. Snowpaw tucked her ears back and her eyes wide. Sunscar padded in, dropping reedtails body onto the ground.

Gasps of horror was in the clan.

‘’Is Reedtail.. Dead?!’’ ‘’Is Featherpaw gonna be okay?”

‘’Reedtail fighted with honor,’’ Sunscar began ‘’But Deadfur defeated him in mid-battle. I was able to take his life.” Dapplestar nodded and turned to Featherwhisker ‘’Take featherpaw too the medic den, and Sunscar- you rest.” her eyes saddened and nuzzled Reedtail with her nose. ‘’He was my kin. I will miss him very much.’’

All of the clan dipped their heads, griefing for their dead clan-mate.
