Icestar watched Mistyway with large, green eyes that burned into her pelt. "I am just as sconfused as you," he mewed sternly. "What else did you forget?"
Applefur padded into camp, replaying his training with Shadepaw in his mind. The old apprentice would become a warrior quite soon; he was sure of it. Applefur padded up to Icestar and fluffed out his chest fur. "I gave Shadepaw his assessment but I never told him that I was going to do so," he admitted, shrinking back a bit. "But he did miraculously well. Icestar, for StarClan's sake, his sister's kits are apprentices! Why have you been holding him back for so long?"Applefur felt upset; he felt that he hadn't been training Shadepaw well enough.
"Because, Applefur," Icestar mewed, "there is something suspicious about one of Shadowheart's kits, and I had believed that it had something to do with Shadepaw." And though he hated to admit it, Icestar felt that he had targeted the wrong kit of Shadowheart.
Applefur sighed. "Icestar, I know that your word is law, but that is rediculously stupid." Applefur lashed his tail from side to side, and his fur was fluffed up. "It is unfair to punish him without knowing for sure."
Icestar narrowed his eyes until they looked like tiny slits. "Whatever," he growled.
Applefur turned away and hissed in disgust. He swatted at the ground and went off to find his mate, Cometfern.
