avocetwhisker's ears pressed tightly to his head as the cats of the clan approached him. an accusing meow rose from one cat, "it's him, he's the killer, just look at him!" from there, tensions grew as cats fought over who had done it. "no, he's my mentor, he's innocent! it must be newtmask!" acornpaw yowled. her meow was drowned out by the increasing number of cats that believed it was avocetwhisker. finally, the gaze of most of the clan landed on him. "it wasn't me, i swear on starclan," he meowed, but squirrelflight stopped him from speaking any more. "you understand what we have to do," she meowed. with a timid meow of protest, he stepped closer to her, and cats ripped from the crowd, snapping at his tail. he fled to the forest, his heart broken at the loss of his clan. he didn't see the monster as he ripped across the thunderpath until it struck him. he landed on the pavement with a thud, and the twolegs hurried out of the monster and took him to the vet, shocked at what they'd done. after a long recovery from a broken leg and head trauma, he led a comfortable kittypet life, his forest life a blur in his mind.

after avocetwhisker's exile, squirrelstar announced that she would replace him as acornpaw's mentor. feeling confident in their choice, the clan lay to rest, unaware that the killer still hid among their ranks.
you have exiled an innocent cat - worse yet, he was the guard! now you are unprotected from the danger the lurking murderer brings. choose your next exile wisely if you wish to survive this!

hazelmist needed her mind cleared from all this trouble, so she decided to take a walk. her pawpads felt nice on the cool earth, and she was lulled into a sense of security - after all, a patrol had scented avocetwhisker's blood on the thunderpath, so the killer was dead. as she reached the riverclan border, she leaned down to take a sip and saw a second shadow reflected in the water. before she could react, her face was shoved under, and claws ripped at her throat when she tried to struggle. she tried her best to hold her breath, but eventually succumbed and breathed in a mouthful of water. when the killer was sure she was dead, they dropped her body into the cold water to wash away any scent they had left and returned to the blissfully unaware clan.

another innocent cat is dead! beware the killer, for they will continue to strike if not chased out.

(Dang. My cat's last mentor was the guard and their new one is the leader. Well, there's some excitement for me.)

The brown tabby was still bewildered about the deaths of the elder and her last mentor. She didn't care what any other cat said, Avocetwhisker was innocent. It was that thought that had made her more wary of a lot of the other clan cats. She couldn't fully trust any of them, if Avocetwhisker was innocent. Which left her believing that the real murderer was still there. She was still trying to wrap her mind around the reason behind Berryfoot's murder. If she could solve that, she could put her mind to ease. The apprentice sighed and got out of her bedding.

vixentail

The female stretched in her mossy bed, flicking her ears gently. She still felt a great amount of fear and regret; she regretted them exiling Avocetwhisker... What if he wasn't guilty? She still felt... Unsafe, like someone was watching her every move and was about to strike. She shook her head, trying to rid her mind if these foul thoughts. She had to be strong! For her kits. She wobbled out of the nursery, and spotted Acornpaw "Acornpaw! Good morning. Would you mind going for a walk with me? To the river perhaps. I want to stretch my legs. I'm getting a bit stiff, cooped up in the nursery" she chuckled, trying to lighten to dark and sad atmosphere.

The younger she-cat glanced at the queen and purred softly. "Morning, Vixentail. It would be nice to spend some time with you!" She was still depressed and scared of the true killer so getting out of the clan with the other she-cat would definitely do her some good. The queen was one of the few cats that Acornpaw felt comfortable around anymore.
