Greenleaf Day 19 Yr. 4
---------------------------
The day was so still, the territory quiet. Something was wrong. He'd been on patrol, getting away from camp for awhile so he could think, so he could process the death of one of his offspring. But the area was quiet, no birds gave song, no prey animals moved. And then, suddenly, chaos erupted.
One of the apprentices, Larkpaw, came running full tilt from the direction of a very ominous cloud of smoke, eyes large and without her mentor. "Russetfall! There's fire in the territory and its heading straight for camp." She panted, clearly out of breath. The loner born she-cat had come all the way from wherever the blaze started and hadn't stopped yet. She had come a long way from the scrawny kit that Brightpool had brought to camp with her.
The other creatures that made their homes here were fleeing en masse, birds flying away from the direction of the smoke and smaller creatures heading away as quickly as they could. If there were time it would have made for easy hunting. But there wasn't, not if what the apprentice before him said was true.
"Make for camp, tell everyone what's happening. I'll gather the other patrols and head back to help as quickly as I can." There were hunting and border patrols, which depending on where they were may not have made it home yet. Not to mention Firestar and those that had gone to fight against Stone Clan. "Go! Run as fast as you can!"
The tiny she-cat took in a large gasping breath then made a chirping sound and took off. He had to admit, even as he told the others to head for home while he headed to find Firestar and the others, the little apprentice was fast on her paws.
---
Larkpaw hit camp at a dead run and collided with the fresh kill pile, sending several pieces of prey scattering. She scrambled out and made a loud yowling sound to get attention. "Redscar! Lightning struck and it sparked a blaze. Its coming right for us!" She was gasping heavily, little body shaking. There was a battle going on right now, but she'd seen the smoke and the flames, and knew she had to get back.
She didn't know who would hear her first, but she had delivered the news and watched as it traveled through the clan rapidly. Her heart was beating rapidly inside her. She was scared and she wanted Brightpool to tell her it would be alright, but there was no time. If the blaze was heading for them, shouldn't they run for it? But where would they go? Where was safe?
Surely someone would know what had to be done.
