Ok so I realised a few chapters ago I changed Frostkits name to Poppykit so whoopsie!
The dark grey and white patched she-cat stared at Greypaw her eyes burning with ambition, he took a step back horrified.
"Awww little Greypaw has come to investigate, such a shame that I might have to kill you if you don't keep your mouth shut!" Flintleaf spat, she took a step forward her claws unsheathed. Greypaw's fur stood on end, he heard movement nearby but kept his gaze on the insane deputy.
"H-How could you kill her!!!????" Greypaw cried out, Flintleaf burst out laughing.
"Because she knew too much and if you don't keep your mouth shut I will do the same to you!" Flintleaf warned, Greypaw felt tears ready to burst free from his eyes. Suddenly there was a loud snarling and a large wolf leapt from its hiding spot grabbing the sleek furred she-cat in its jaws, Flintleaf let out a wail her eyes now filled with fear.
"GREYPAW HELP ME!!!" She wailed as there was a crunch making her go still, his gaze stayed fixed on the wolf with the deputy dangling from its jaws.

"Pathetic really that you hesitated to attack young pup," the wolf growled, Greypaw flattened his ears and got into an attack position.
"I am no wolf nor am I a pup I am an apprentice of Treeclan!" He snarled, the wolf didn't reply as it bounded away carrying the deputy's body with it. With a heavy heart Greypaw picked his sister up in his jaws and headed for camp, not long after he set off for camp did he run into a battle patrol.
"Greypaw what happened!?" Echomist wailed as he gently sat his sister down, the other warriors looked at Poppypaws corpse in horror.
"Flintleaf killed her because she knew her plan to take over the clan, a wolf attacked and killed Flintleaf so she won't be a worry to us any more," Greypaw sighed gravely, Echomist had her muzzle buried in her kits fur.
"Why would she do this!? We trusted her!" Nettlefur spat, Greypaw sighed and picked his sisters small fluffy body up and began to head towards camp again warriors on all sides. Arriving at the camp wails of shock and anger could be heard, Fallenstar sat at the entrance to her den and her face said everything when she saw Poppypaws limp body.

"Greypaw place Poppypaw down in the centre of the camp so the clan can mourn for her," Fallenstar instructed, Greypaw carefully placed Poppypaw in the centre of the camp while warriors gathered around. Echomist and Rockwhisper had begun to groom Poppypaws fur to be just like it had been that morning, Greypaw sat nearby as Fallenstar stepped closer.

"Poppypaw was a brave apprentice and like the fallen apprentices before her she will receive her warrior name as she ascends to starclan, I say these words before the might of starclan so they can accept her as a full warrior in their name, Poppypaw shall now be known as Poppyheart in honour of her bravery in these troubled times, I must also name a new deputy, Heatherpoppy do you accept the duties of being Treeclan's deputy and to lead the clan well after I pass?" Fallenstar whispered just loud enough for the rest of the clan to hear, Greypaw pressed his muzzle softly into his sisters shoulder fur.
"Poppyheart," he whispered as he settled down to sit vigil with his other clan mates, Fallenstar crouched down beside him her gaze distant.

******************************

A paw prodding his side made Greypaw wake, he yawned sleepily and sat up looking to see Badgerpaw. His brother tried to put on a smile but Greypaw could see hurt in his eyes, he nudged Badgerpaw softly as the elders came to bury Poppyhearts body.
"How are you holding up?" Badgerpaw croaked, Greypaw gave a sigh watching the elders leave.
"I wish everything was back to normal but with the wolves around we are only going to die one by one," Greypaw whined, Badgerpaw placed his muzzle on his adopted brothers shoulder.
"No we aren't, I trust Fallenstar and her choices, have faith in starclan brother and we will make it through this," Badgerpaw whispered sitting beside Greypaw, Greypaw smiled and shoved his brother lightly before a frown returned to his face. The two brothers looked hopefully at Fallenstar as she stood upon the high ledge, the leaders eyes were filled with fear as she stared at the camp entrance. A howl in the distance made the whole clan stand still, Greypaw felt his fur rise as anger rose through his chest like a wildfire. Suddenly he stood and raced out of camp to follow the howl, he bared his teeth and flattened his ears biting at the air whenever a leaf brushed his face. He burst through the trees to a large clearing at the edge of the territory, the wolves lay on some flat stones warming themselves in the sunlight.

"The young pup has finally decided to join us has he?" One of the wolves growled softly, Greypaw began to snarl at them. The male stood his tail raised angrily, Greypaw began to circle the older male his eyes narrow. All was silent as the two circled each other, neither wanting to attack first. A patrol raced into the clearing and stopped when they saw two large wolves circling, Fallenstar knew the lighter grey one was Greypaw but the anger in his eyes scared her. Greypaw gave an angry snarl as he leapt at the older wolf, the older wolf tried to dodge but teeth dug into his tail making him yelp. Greypaw tore at the tail with all his strength even when the older wolf bit back, the older wolf then slipped giving Greypaw the opportunity he needed. With a mighty heave Greypaw bit down on the wolves neck, the male began to whine and tried to struggle free. Greypaw refused to let go even though his jaws hurt, suddenly there was a great force that knocked him sideways and across the clearing. Another of the wolves stood over the dying male, Greypaw stood tall snarling.

"GET LOST BEFORE I KILL YOU ALL!" Greypaw snarled at the wolves in their language, the other wolves began to stalk away except for the younger male. The younger wolf scratched the ground and snarled before charging, Greypaw prepared for an attack and stood and braced himself. The younger wolf charged right past him towards the shocked patrol, he instantly caught on and chased the young wolf in fear for his clans safety. Greypaw's eyes widened with fear as he saw his leader crouched there in fear, he tried to run faster but the wolf was there first and he bit down on Fallenstar's back causing her to yowl in pain. Greypaw grabbed the younger wolves neck and twisted causing its neck to snap, Fallenstar fell to the ground panting her eyes starting to cloud.

"FALLENSTAR!!!" Greypaw cried out, Fallenstar looked at him with a soft gaze.

"G-Greypaw, stay strong f-for the clan, protect them wisely, and be a good warrior, Greyheart," Fallenstar sighed as her final breath left her lungs, Greypaw felt his chest tighten with sadness. The warriors crowded around Greypaw and Fallenstar's limp body, they all wailed their grief to the sky as rain began to trickle down softly as Starclan grieved for the clans fallen leader.

The calico she-cat watched her clan sadly as they mourned her lifeless corpse, pawsteps behind her made her ear twitch to acknowledge the cat who stood behind her. A familiar scent washed over her like a wave which made her heart leap, she didn't turn to look at him as he stood beside her.

"Hello Shadowstep," she purred trying not to cry as the clan took her back to camp to mourn properly, the black and Tom rested his soft black tail on her back as he pressed his muzzle to her shoulder.

"You lived a fine life and raised kits I couldn't raise, you will be remembered for many generations to come, now, let us join the others up in starclan and let the clan mourn while we watch over them and protect them," Shadowstep purred as he ushered the fluffy calico she-cat towards the path of stars that led into the clouds, the two intertwined their tails as they began to head up into the forever green lands of starclan. Fallenstar looked down over her clan as they wailed their grief to the sky, she let a tear fall down her cheek which turned into a raindrop that fell onto Greypaw's muzzle.

"Please let them be safe forever more, I wish no more grief upon this clan for moons to come," Fallenstar yowled, the clouds began to part as the stars shone down casting a soft glow on the clan. She smiled before turning to greet her fellow starclan friends, her blue eyes shone with a courage and faith others would have given in to.
