Chapter 3

Back at camp it was almost deserted, the only cats up were warriors. Winterstar was ordering the warriors to fix the camp walls after the last fox attack almost a half moon ago,
“Fix the bracken walls and collect some thick bracken to cover it,”

“I should go,” Goldenclaw was watching the commotion.

“yaa…” Cookietail and Goldenclaw sat for a moment longer before parting.

“I’m tired; you’ll find me in the warriors den if you need me.” Cookietail called to him as he padded away.

Goldencalw flicked his tail stating he had heard her call. She sighed; she never thought she could be this tired… She felt like she could sleep for a moon.
Starting towards the warriors den her apprentice waddled towards her,
“You’re BACK!” Blackpaw squeaked. His eyes filled with energy and his white fur stood out in all directions.

“Yes I am,” Cookietail replied tiredly making it clear that she didn’t have the energy.

“Oh…..” Blackpaw mumbled half to himself his tail drooped and his fur lied flat in disappointment. “Can we go hunting TOMARROW?” His eyes lit up again and he raised his tail in hope.

“Maybe… After dawn, alright?” Cookietail was already padding into the warriors den when the young apprentice mewed eagerly,

“Ya! I’ll catch ALL the cotton rats in the MOUNTAINS!” Black paw squeaked again. His amber eyes filled with pride at the thought,

“Not if the eagles, hawks, owls, or wolves get em’ first!” Cookietail joked settling down at the front of the warrior’s den.

“Oh? Well I’ll grow wings and fly!” They young apprentice said purring. “I’ll be the most dangerous animal in the mountains! ALL animals will fear me! You’ll see ALL animals will bow to me and give me their prey!!”

“Oh yes! The great Blackpaw, we all fear you! Half cat half eagle!” Cookietail mewed humorously rolling her blue eyes at the dreaming apprentice. “Yha, when hedgehogs fly!”

“Humph!” Blackpaw was padding across the rocky clearing to his brother Eaglepaw at the fresh pile who cuffed him over the ear playfully. They both started to play fight.

Cookietail let out a purr of amusement. Then let out a sigh, why couldn’t her and Riverfrost be that close? After the incident with their mother the gray and white tabby had shut her out ever since. They still talk and hunt but they NEVER play fought or slept by each other in the warriors den. After the attack River frost (aka at the time Riverit) swore he would find the cat who did this and he would avenge her death. It seemed that she was closer to Goldenclaw than her own brother!

Cookietail shook herself out of the thought and decided that she would find her brother, Goldenclaw, and his sister Cresentmoon for a hunting patrol. She HAD to talk to her brother and she kinda needed to be updated on Crescentmoon and Sparrowfeather’s relationship. Also the clan looked like it could use fresh kill. She spotted Goldenclaw almost immediately, how could she miss that golden pelt?

Goldenclaw dipped his head in greeting to the young she cat “What do ya need?”

“Oh, I was goanna ask if you, I, your sister and my brother could go on patrol.” Cookietail mewed to the big tom.

“Oh! Yha I’ll go on patrol!” The golden tom’s eyes shined. He bounded to the hollow and returned with his sister by his side, her creamy pelt gleamed in the new moonlight.

“I’ll get Riverfrost,” Cookietail offered as the lean gray blue tom bounded towers them. “Never mind…”

“Going on patrol?” Riverfrost asked his emerald eyes scanned the three cats.

“Yes and I was about to get you: you fur ball! Wanna to come with us?” Cookietail asked the gray blue tom.

“Yha,” Riverfrost mewed.

The four cats vanished through the bracken and headed towards the Fireclan boarder to hunt and do boarded patrol. Once they were within distance they sniffed the air for cats Goldenclaw cocked his head up and yowled,

“Coyotes,”
We all turned to see two dogs stalk out from behind the mountain’s rocks snarling. Both were half starved ribs showing, they would make a meal out of the four tired cats within seconds.
