Chapter Six: Hawkpaw

Hawkpaw watched as Bumblepaw left the hidden clearing.


Why? Why them and not me? Bumblepaw thought.

He was frustrated at Bumblepaw's sudden assumption that she wasn't loved by starclan. Of course she was! At least, that's what Riverpaw thought.

"Leafpaw" he growled. "Go and calm Bumblepaw down, and bring her back here" he meowed.

Fine, bossy paws. Thought leafpaw. But all she did was just nod, and dissapear into the bushes.
He looked at Riverpaw. His brothers eyes looked hurt.

Your such a softey, Hawkpaw thought at riverpaw, even though he couldn't hear him.

"Riverpaw." he asked. "What do you think about the prophecy?" he questioned. Riverpaw was the medicine cat apprentice, after all. Maybe he had a dream from starclan.

"N-nothing" he stammered, a little nervous. He was worried about Bumblepaw of course.

"Only that it's about us, but that's obvious" he added.

"O.k." Hawkpaw grumbled. "Do you want to hunt?" he said.
"Sure" Riverpaw replied, more steadily.

After some hunting, they caught 2 voles, a sparrow, and a magpie. "I wonder what's taking Leafpaw so long?" Riverpaw asked. "I don't know." was all that Hawkpaw said. He could tell riverpaw was starting to get worried. Suddenly, they heard a kit's cry.

"What was that?" Hawkpaw said.

"I don't know!" Riverpaw yowled, and they took off running towards the sound of the cry.
