CHAPTER 27
By late afternoon the lingering smellof smoke had been replaced by the stench of wet ash, but Fireheart relished2 its bitter odor.
“The fire must be out by now,” he meowed to Graystripe, who was sheltering beside him beneath a clump3 of reeds. “We could go back and see if it’s safe for the Clan4 to return.”
“And look for Yellowfang and Halftail,” Graystripe murmured
Fireheart had known that his old friend would guess why he really wanted to go back to the camp. He blinked at the gray warrior5, grateful for his understanding.
“I’ll have to ask Crookedstar if I can come,” Graystripe added. The words came as a shock to Fireheart. He had almost forgotten that Graystripe belonged to another Clan now.
“I’ll be back soon,” called the gray warrior, already bounding away.
Fireheart gazed across the clearing to where Bluestar was huddled6 next to Whitestorm, as if the white warrior were the only barrier between her troubled mind and the horrific fate that had befallen her Clan. Fireheart wondered if he should tell her where he was going. He decided7 not to. For the moment he would act alone and rely on his Clan to shield their leader’s weakened state from the curious RiverClan cats.
“Fireheart.” Cloudpaw was heading toward him. “Do you think the fire is out?”
“Graystripe and I are going to check,” Fireheart told him.
“Can I come?”
Fireheart shook his head. He didn’t know what they would find at the ThunderClan camp. Uncomfortably he also realized that he was afraid Cloudpaw would take one look at his ruined forest home and be tempted8 back into the cozy9 life of a kittypet.
