CHAPTER 13
Firepaw reached the edge of the ravineand looked down at the camp. He was panting and his paws were slippery with dew. He sniffed1 the air. He was alone. There was still time to speak to Yellowfang before the others returned from the Gathering2. Silently, he jumped down the rocky slope and slipped through the gorse tunnel unnoticed.
The camp was still and quiet, apart from the muted snuffles of sleeping cats. Firepaw quickly crept around the edge of the clearing to Yellowfang’s nest. The old medicine cat was curled on top of her mossy bedding.
Two orange eyes opened and glinted in the moonlight. “I wasn’t sleeping,” meowed Yellowfang quietly. She sounded calm and alert. “You came straight from the Gathering to me? That must mean you’ve heard.” She blinked slowly and looked away. “So Brokenstar kept his promise.”
“What promise?” Firepaw felt very confused. Yellowfang seemed to know more than he did about what was going on.
“ShadowClan’s noble leader promised to drive me from every Clan4 territory,” Yellowfang replied dryly. “What did he say about me?”
“He warned us that our kits5 were in danger as long as we sheltered the ShadowClan rogue7. He didn’t say your name, but ThunderClan guessed who he was talking about. You must leave before the others get back. You are in danger!”
“Yes!” Firepaw meowed urgently. “Darkstripe says you’re dangerous. The other cats are scared of what you might do. Tigerclaw is planning to come back and…I don’t know…. I think you should go before they get here!”
