CHAPTER 5
“Sasha!” Mistyfoot called again. “Is thatyou?”
There was no reply.
Leafpaw pressed her muzzle1 against the web and peered out. She had heard of Sasha many times, and was curious to see the rogue2 she-cat who had taken Tigerstar as her mate and given birth to Mothwing and Hawkfrost while staying with RiverClan. But in the half-light of the wooden nest, she could only just make out Sasha’s tawny4 pelt5 huddled6 at the back of the cage the Twoleg had just brought in.
“Sasha, are you okay?” Mistyfoot called more urgently.
“Give her time to recover,” Cody advised. “The new ones are always quiet.”
“I don’t need time to recover,” came a furious hiss7. “How dare they put me in here? If I could get out, I’d rip that Twoleg to shreds8!”
“What were you doing in the forest?” Mistyfoot asked.
“I wanted to see my kits10,” Sasha replied. “I had heard about the Twolegs destroying the forest, and I wanted to make sure they were safe.”
“I saw Mothwing not long ago!” Leafpaw mewed. “She was fine. She’s going to be a medicine cat.”
“Who’s that speaking?” Sasha called.
“I’m Leafpaw, ThunderClan’s apprentice11 medicine cat,” Leafpaw told her. “I’m friends with Mothwing.”
“Do you know Hawkfrost too?” Sasha demanded. “Is he safe?”
Leafpaw did not answer. Her paws prickled as she pictured Sasha’s other kit
