ˡᵃʳᵏˢᵗᵃʳ waited until Nightfrost had gone to his little prison before showing her emotions. Her eyes glazed with pain, disbelief, and sadness. Curling up in the far corner of her den, she trembled. Fallenheart didn't do it, she knew that with every fiber of her being. But she was his mate, and the Clan would assume she was biased. Nightfrost seemed like a more proper suspect, but many cats in the Clan admired him. No doubt they would be furious if she exiled him. She felt trapped, like a mouse under the paws of a hunter. No way to turn, no solution. Perhaps Starclan would help her if she asked? But no, they should have helped a long time ago.

ᵛᵒˡᵉᵖᵃʷ Volepaw walked into camp, carrying heaps of prey. He'd gone far away from camp to hunt, figuring the prey would be plentiful since no cat traveled so far to hunt. But as he looked around the clearing, the prey fell from his jaws with a thud. Cats were circled around yet another body, eyes wide with shock and grief. Volepaw stared at the limp cat, his brain denying what the saw. It couldn't be her, it couldn't! But he recognized the soft fur that he curled up with at night, the tiny paws that were so much faster than his. A wail shook in his throat, escaping his still-open mouth as he ran forward in anguish. Burying his nose in Rosepaw's flank, he was too upset to form words.

ˢᵗᵒʳᵐᶜˡᵒᵘᵈ watched with wide eyes. "Okay then," he muttered. "Nevermind." Copperwhisker and Fallenheart left, much to the confusion of the Clan. But things quickly got settled into their usual routine. Stormcloud reported all of the news to Whitestar; Mintyleaf's episode, and the story of two deaths in Dawnclan. The leader of course heard about one, and that Fallenheart was blamed. But Stormcloud knew the other deputy, and didn't believe it possible. Fallenheart was right in saying that Duskclan had the darker past.

ᶤᵛʸᵖᵃʷ curled up beside Rosepaw, pressing her nose into the cold fur of a once-proud she-cat. Would Starclan be taking care of her already, or was Rosepaw's spirit still traveling to her final Clan? Ivypaw heard Volepaw's wail and shivered. The poor tom already lost his sister, now he was losing his only friend as well. Ivypaw felt a rush of anger once more, wanting to find out who had done this. As soon as the vigil was over, she would have to talk to Ebonypaw. Together they would find the murderer and avenge these deaths. "I promise," she whispered.
