CHAPTER 25

Ivypool crouched¹ inside the dirtplace tunnel.She could hear Firestar in the clearing, ordering patrols. Yowls echoed above the hollow. The Dark Forest had reached the woods.

Ivypool bristled² with frustration³. Dovepaw had prodded⁴ her awake too soon. I was trying to reach Blossomfall and Birchfall before the battle started!Now it was too late. I’ve got to find them.She pricked⁵ her ears.

“Stay with Brambleclaw and guard the camp.” Firestar gave a final order, then thundered out of camp.

Ivypool waited. Where would Brokenstar send ThunderClan recruits?Not to their own Clan⁶, surely? They’d be more eager to fight other Clans⁷. Ivypool crept deeper into the brambles and skirted the dirtplace, pushing through ferns until she was clear of the camp. The forest smelled dank as darkness swallowed it. Wind roared in the treetops.

“Ivypool?” Brambleclaw’s mew took her by surprise. “Shouldn’t you be on Firestar’s patrol?”

She whipped around to see the ThunderClan deputy standing⁸ underneath⁹ a rowan tree. Brambleclaw knew she’d trained in the Dark Forest. What if he thought she was betraying her Clan? “I—I have to find Blossomfall and Birchfall and Mousewhisker.”

He padded closer. “Do you know where they are?”

“No! I wish I did. I want to stop them before…”

“Before they betray their Clan?” Brambleclaw narrowed his eyes.

“They wouldn’t!” she gasped
