Chapter 2: Truth
At Dawn, she and the rest of her team had an announcement, like every other day. "We must find who are the Three Traitors! Now, the meeting is over."
"Wait, it's not over!" Blue Mist interrupted.
Thunder Roar blinked at her.
"At night, I couldn't sleep, and when I looked out the window, I saw three FoxEaters! Then, they transformed into Foxies, and I saw who they were." She saw Fire Whirl giving her a nervous expression, but the other Foxies didn't notice that. Ignoring Fire Whirl, she went on. "I noticed that one of each Traitor comes from each team!" she yowled, lashing her tail. One of us is the traitor!"
Hearing that, the other Foxies quickly separated from each other, eyeing each other distrustfully.
"I mean, I know who it is!" Blue Mist yelped.
"Who?" Star Shine leaned closer, his gaze solemn.
Blue Mist took a deep breath, then shouted at the top of her lungs the name who had betrayed them all. "FIRE WHIRl-"
"NOOO!" Fire Whirl yowled, lunging at Blue Mist and clamped his tail between her jaws.
"Fire Whirl?" Thunder Roar padded closer, eyes narrowed. He bared his sharp teeth.
Blue Mist swatted away the flame-red tail and yowled, "YES! FIRE WHIRL!"
Star Shine's gaze was angry. He hissed, "Fire Whirl, you traitor. You have betrayed us all."
"No! Blue Mist is lying! Maybe she might be the traitor!" Red Whirl whirled around and faced Blue Mist.
Blue Mist curled her lip. "I would never lie!" then Blue Mist pleaded to Star Shine, "Please. I was telling you the truth."
Suddenly, Thunder Roar stepped forwards. "I knew this all the time," he whispered quietly. "I also couldn't sleep, and I saw Blue Mist looking out the den. I also looked out, and saw him with other Foxies."
Star Shine sighed. Then he raised his voice. "Fire Whirl will be abducted. It's 2 versus 1, so Blue Mist and Thunder Roar win." he glared down at the drooping Fire Whirl. "And you will be put in the worst cell!" he spat. "Blue Mist, Thunder Roar, carry him to it!"
As Fire Whirl was carried off, tied up, he scowled at the startingstaring team, "This isn't over! I'll be back with reinforcements soon!"
Blue Mist thought, How will we be able to convince the Fierce Protectors and the Stealth Lookouters that they are the traitors?
