Chapter 26

            Okay forget all the other characters. Here are the ones you must remember: Wintertail, Frostglory, Pebblefoot, Dusktail, Dotfur, Mollywing, Bellafeather, Puckleclaw,Cheetahswift and all the other deputies. So now let's join our journey with Sparklepelt. Sparklepelt's friends, Bellafeather and Mollywing, seemed to hear the sounds of his low growls. As soon as they emerged from the bushes, the other clan deputies came out of the bushes. Demontooth came into full view then. Sparklepelt could now see that RockClans' deputy was no bigger than himself. He had dark brown fur with gashes of light brown. Demontooth had many battle scars, for he had been RockClans deputy for 6 years and he was getting old and impatient for RockClan's current leader to retire. Second came Mutheart. Mutheart was a lean gray cat. Some stories told of him being half mut. Mutheart had only recently became NightClan's deputy, because the clan was unsure if they should trust him or not. Last but not least was Shallowpool. Shallowpool was a gorgeus female cat. While the cats were staring at awe at her she would normally quickly strike. Being a QuickClan a cat, she was incredibly fast. Being the oldest and most skilled deputy she was really unbeatable. The deputies came closer and closer to the three cats. the next thing Sparklepelt knew he was knocked out(If you are wondering why the deputies names don't end with claw, is becase Puckleclaw secretly allowed them to change there names if they didn't like them. And apparently all of them besides Puckleclaw didn't like their name).

Chapter 25

We must know leave our hero, Wintertail and tell you what has happened while the band of cats were gone. We will now follow the story of Sparklekit. A young male cat with a great sense of pride. Sparklekit became an apprentice at the same time of Wintertail. While he had his apprentice ceremony, Wintertail just happened to be sleeping. He also became a warrior the day after Wintertail, so know we are left with Sparklepelt. The day that the band of clan saving cats left, Puckleclaw took over due to strange disappearance of Frostglory. In the late afternoon, Sparklepelt heard a rumbling noise. She ran utside to see a giant wave crashing upon their camp. Sparklepelt braced himself for the impact. When the water finally hit him, he just started to swim. After that odd incident, the clans soon got news that a couple of cats died. Volleytail (from another clan.) and their own Safetyherb ( medicine cat apprentice)Bellawing took over. Bellawing was her very best friend aside from Mollyfeather, that is. Although his friends were girls. As many may know, girls and boys often do not work together well. All the other kits in the other clan were killed but WaveClans' kits were carried to safety. The next day the campsite caught on fire. Waveclan, because they live in holes, had a harder time escaping their dens compared to the other clans. Sparklepelt saw Puckleclaw talking to another cat. the other cat did not smell of WaveClan but it smelled like it was from RockClan. "We shall attack the clans, join up with the other clan deputies, and rule all cats in this forest.'' the other cat said. Puckleclaw nodded solemly. Sparklepelt gasped suddenly. Another cat heard him. The strange cat pounced on him. Sparklepelt threw him off into the broad sunlight of the day. It was Demontooth, Rockclan's deputy. From the bushes emerged the other clans deputies.

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......"
