CHAPTER 30
Fireheart realized his offer was genuine, and he flashed the great white warrior2 a grateful glance. He knew Whitestorm could have expected to become deputy himself, and his support would be valuable to Fireheart in the days to come. “Yes…now…” he began, frantically3 trying to think what the most urgent priorities would be. With a jolt4, he realized that he was trying to imagine what Tigerclaw would have done. “Food. We all need to eat. Cloudpaw, start taking fresh-kill to the elders. Get the other apprentices7 to help the queens in the nursery.” Cloudpaw shot off with a flick8 of his tail. “Mousefur, Darkstripe, find yourselves two or three warriors9 each and go out on a hunting patrol. Split the territory between you. We’ll need more fresh-kill right away. And keep a lookout10 for those rogues12 or Tigerclaw while you’re at it.”
Mousefur moved away with a calm nod, collecting Brackenfur and Willowpelt as she went. But Darkstripe glared at Fireheart for so long that Fireheart began to wonder what he would do if the dark warrior really refused to obey him. He met the pale blue gaze steadily14, and at last Darkstripe turned away, meowing to Longtail and Dustpelt to follow him.
“All Tigerclaw’s sympathizers,” Whitestorm observed as he watched them go. “You’ll need to keep an eye on them.”
