Chapter 37- A Conflict.
I wake up at dawn to the clan yowling about someone being "here."
"Can't I get any sleep?" I grumble before dragging myself out of my nest and into the clearing to see what was going on.
To my surprise I find another large group of unfamiliar cats. Wildstar and Icestar are both talking to a large tabby tom with a nasty scar across his ribcage.
I catch Leopardsight's gaze and quickly trod over to him, close to the unfamiliar cats.
"Who are they?" I whisper as I scan the group of cats, all of their pelt colors and sizes are different.
"Apparently, they're the rogues from the barn that Hickoryblaze brought to help," he muttered with an edge to his mew.
Wildstar flicks her tail and the large tabby and Icestar follow her up to the highledge.
"Cats of Thinderclan and Riverclan! Do not be alarmed! These cats have came to help us win back the peace of the forest!" Yowled out Wildstar.
"How can we trust them?!" Snarled out Redfrost," we barely know them!"
Yowls of agreement filtered through the air.
"We can trust them. They want to get abolish of Strikeclan just like we do!" Icestar answered with a challenging growl. The clan cats shuffle with unease.
"I am Niall,"the large tabby tom states and ends with a snarl," these cats have taken many loved ones from us. My mother, lost her life to a cat named Goddess, because my mother refused to join. I promise you I will rip Goddess to shreds of its the last breath I have to take!" He yowls.
The rogues yowl with approval along with a few clan cats.
"We will unite and rid the forest of this nonsense!" Wildstar yowled before flicking her tail," meeting dismissed!"
"I hope Hickoryblaze did the right thing for suggesting to bring these cats here,"Leopardsight growls.
I nod in agreement and flinch as k think 'Can we really trust these cats?' My stomach churns when Leopardsight mentioned these unfamiliar cats who were brought here by the brown warrior who betrayed me. As if Hickoryblaze heard my thoughts he bounds over here to my astonishment.
"Brokenflight, may I speak with you,"he pauses and glances at Leopardsight,who was scowling, and then finished,"alone."
I take a moment to calm my anger before I flatten my ears,"no, I need help train the Riverclan and Thunderclan apprentices today, and maybe some of the younger rogues."
"Oh, okay. Maybe after training!" He suggests looking hopeful.
I answer with just a roll of my eyes and trot over to the large group of apprentices.
I hear Leopardsight behind me lowly growl,"she doesn't want you, so back off."
I feel my fur grow hot and tingly. 'Maybe Leopardsight is the one?'
The only thing I hear Hickoryblaze reply with was a snarl. Paw steps start scuffling behind me and I hide the fact that I heard the spotted tom get jealous.
"Brokenflight!" I hear Wildstar call out right when I was about to ask the apprentices for training.
"Leopardsight, tell the apprentices that I'm about to start training and for them to be ready," I order gently.
The golden spotted tom nodded before trotting over to all the bundles of energy, itching to have a few battle sessions.
I quickly bound over to Wildstar, the gazes of the many rogues fall on me and I try to keep my hackles down.
"Brokenflight, this is Niall, he is the leader of these cats from the barn. He has a few apprentices that need a little more battle training," she informed me.
I look over to the large tabby Tom that towered over me, his smoldering blue eyes sent chills down my spine.
"Hello,"I mew, trying to size him up,"what cats need the training?"
"Harley! Mint! Scotch! Ellie! Get over here,"his deep mew rang through the clearing.
The four cats quickly shuffle through the crowd older cats.
I scan them over. The ginger tom and light brown she cat looked fairly older than the other to apprentices, who still had kit down. 'The older ones must siblings,'I muse.
"Hi I'm Harley!" The ginger Tom with a white tail tip mewed happily.
"And I'm Ellie!" The lighted brown she cat with a white ear and white splash mewed quietly.
"Nice to meet you both! I am Brokenflight," I dip my head before turning to the other two apprentices," and who might you two be?"
"I'm Mint," the creamy white tabby squeaked, her brown paws nervously kneaded the ground.
"And I'm Scotch!" The more bubbly dark tortoiseshell she cat leaped up.
"Nice to meet you all," I dip my head before turning to the three leaders,"I guess we will be off!" Before flicking my tail for the younger cats to follow, leading them to the other group of apprentices. Dewscale is patiently having a conversation with lizardpaw while the other apprentices are lazily stretched out in the sun.
"Newleaf is coming," I muse out loud.
"Why yes it is, now let's not waste this beautiful day sleeping! Let's go train!" Dewscale purred before padding toward the bramble entrance.
