Chapter 24

The suspense was killing her. Witch clan would he choose she knew that whichever clan he went to Avalanch would go to. "I choose Waveclan." said Jauwar at last. Wintertail let out her breath. "So with thdat done let's go back to the clans." said Frostglory seemng relieved too. With a nod of Wintertail's head they set off toward the clans. Almost to the clans Dotfur spoke up. "Wintertail why is cheetahswift mad at you?" sheasked."how did you know she was mad at me?" said Wintetail with a little bit of annoyance. 'You didn't know Cheetahswift is in QuickClan." said Dotfur with a bunch of sympathy. "What!" she hissed nearly allmost falling down. their pace seemed to go a little faster after that. When they got to the area where the four clans lived the land was different. It was a big difference indeed. the land was bare and dry as a big bone. Instead of a lush green field it was all tattered grass. Instead of trees filled with life the trees were all dead with no leaves at all. Instaed of happy cats there were four cats pushing four cats in a corner.......

Chapter 23

    Wintertail remembered what Willowtail said. She said that each leader had 8-9 lives. She forgot if it was eight or nine. Frostglory was apparently killed two times during this very short battle. Then Frostglory stirred. She was alive!!! Wintertail heard of stories that while she was out hunting or border patrols back in the clans Frostglory had lost a few lives. That was why Wintertail wasn't sure if she was still alive. With Redchopper fleeing and the dam broken it was time to go home. There was still one more thing that she knew was coming. "Wintertail, I need to ask you a favor," mumbled Jaugwar. "Yes . . .'' she answered. "May Avalanche and I join your so called clans? With my mate Cloudy gone, I-I feel as if I don't belong here. " "Sure." all the cats answered, including Frostglory, coming to her senses now. " But which clan will you go to?" questioned Frostglory. "There is NightClan, who are especially good at night hunting when it is cooler. There is QuickClan, a clan trained to be the quickest of the quickest. There is RockClan, the best at climbing rocks and living in dry rocky terrian. Last, there is my clan and we are the best at swimming and digging." Jaguar cocked his head. "I choose......"

Chapter 21

      The male introduced himself as Jaguar and his kit was Avalanche. They ate a delicious meal and the Clan cats prepared to go. "Can I please . . . um. . .  Can I come?" pleaded Avalanche "No, it'll be to dangerous." decided Pebblefoot, obviously acting like the leader of the band. "Besides, I say no," said Jaguar. The small troop said their good-byes and left. After a while of walking, she heard her belly rumble like thunder. "I'll go grab myself a snack and then catch up with you guys." she said. They all nodded and decided to catch something for themselves. So she headed off into the thickest part of the bushes. She heard something, and, without thinking, she pounced. Then when she heard it meow. She stood up and noticed that it was Avalanche, the kit. Then out of nowhere Jaguar pounced on her. She groaned and kicked him off. "What are you doing here?" she snapped. "This little rascal ran off after you guys," he explained, "well now i guess that I'll escort you back." He turned around, ready to go. "Well it's to late now, look!" Wintertail looked and saw the thing that was blocking the river.
