CHAPTER9
“Jaypaw! Hey, Jaypaw!” Jaypaw felt asharp nudge in his side; Hollypaw’s scent1 drifted over him, tinged2 with exasperation3.
He lurched on his paws, confused at the sudden return to blindness and the scents4 and sounds of the stone hollow. Every hair on his pelt5 still quivered with the feelings of grief and anger and betrayal he had felt in the cave.
Brook6!he thought. I was feeling what she felt! And it wasn’t a dream; I’ve been awake all the time. Could I have found a way into her memories?
He drew in his breath sharply, full of excitement at the thought of a new and different power, but there was no time to explore it now.
“Jaypaw, I don’t know how you can daydream7 at a time like this,” Lionpaw mewed. “We need to listen to find out why these strange cats have come here.”
Jaypaw realized that while he felt as if he had spent several days with the Tribe, here in the clearing only a few heartbeats had passed. The newcomers were still crouched8 beside the fresh-kill pile, along with Stormfur, Brook, and Firestar.
“I think I know why,” he murmured. “And I don’t think Stormfur and Brook will be too pleased to see them.”
“What do you mean?” Hollypaw asked curiously10. “Why wouldn’t they want to see their Tribemates?”
Before Jaypaw could explain—telling the story of his experience would have taken until moonhigh—he heard the harsh voice of Talon11.
“Firestar, we have come to ask Stormfur and Brook to return to the mountains. The Tribe of Rushing Water needs them.”
