Chapter Four
A chilly breeze ruffled Flamingwhisper's pelt, as he searched for prey. The first snow had just happened yesterday, and a freshly laid blanket had come this morning. His paws stung with the bitter, icy stones. 'Mouse!' Flamingwhisper dropped down into a hunter crouch, as the scrawny creature nibbled a frosted nut. With a powerful leap, he landed on the mouse, killing it with a swift bite to the neck. 'This will be great food for elders and Snowytrees!' Flamingwhisper smiled, 'um, well or for Snowytrees'. Flamingwhisper scooped it up and headed to where he had buried the small rabbit he had caught.As he walked into camp, he noticed Volestar was gone. Padding up to Thornpelt, he asked where their leader was. "Didn't I tell you?! On a walk" Thornpelt meowed. Flamingwhisper nodded, rembering the announcement.
As sun started to set, Flamingwhisper heard the voice. Heard the call. "Flamingwhisper in my den at once". Flamingwhisper eyes widen at the anger in Volestar's yowl, cats of his group wished him good luck. He nodded to them, licked himself down, and trudged into the Leader's Den.
As he entered Volestar's den, he felt Volestar's gaze burning into his pelt. He sat down, and shuffled his paws. "WHAT THE HECK DO YOU THINK YOU THINK YOUR DOING?!" Volestar yowled, "YOU MOUSE-BRAINED FOOL! YOU THINK YOU COULD HIDE A SECRET FROM ME?!". "No sir tha-" Volestar cut him off. "I'M NOT DUMB FLAMINGWHISPER, I'VE SEEN YOUR LITTLE MESSANGER RUNNING AROUND" Volestar sheathed his claws, "YOU CAN'T FOOL ME AFTER THAT FAKE PROPHCEY! STONEFEATHER HAS DO WITH DO WITH THIS RIGHT?". "Um" Flamingwhisper gulped, 'how is Stonefeather related to this?'. "WHAT DOES 'UM' MEAN?!" Volestar glared. "'um' means that I have no idea WHAT YOUR TALKING ABOUT!" Flamingwhisper felt his blood boiling. "LAIR, LAIR!" Volestar growled. "I'M NOT LIEING YOU FOX-HEARTED COWARD!" Flamingwhisper yelled. "EXCUSE ME?!" Volestar's gaze burned in to the warrior's pelt. In two powerful leaps, the toms crashed into battle.
Outside of the den Hollowfur gasped at the fight, "SOME CAT GET IN THERE! THERE FIGHTING WITH SHEATHED CLAWS!".
