User:Emberstar23/Flashfire: The Whole Story

Flashkit looked about, then snuck out of camp through the dirtplace. Her brother Dragonkit followed silently. "What are we going to do?" he asked. Flashkit was about to answer when suddenly, raucous barking was heard not a fox-lngth from them. Flashkit peeked out, then stuck her head back in. "Dogs!" she whispered. Dragonkit puffed out his chest. "No problem for me. I'll go and fight them." "Dragonkit, no!" Flashkit yowled, but by then, Dragonkit was already outside. Shrieks emanated through the air, and joyous yips followed. Soon, the rank scent of dog trailed away, and Flashkit dared to peek out. Dragonkit, or what was left of him, lay on the ground, bloodied and ragged. "Dragonkit! Dragonkit!" Flashkit looked down despairingly at her brother. What would her mother, Shellshore, say? And more importantly, her father. Her father was Froststar, leader of SpringClan. He would be infuriated that Flashkit had led her brother to die. Flashkit dug a hole and buried her brother, not wanting to kleave him for the crows. She raced back to the SpringClan camp. "There you are!" Shellshore licked Flashkit fiercely. "Have you seen Dragonkit?" Flashkit took a deep breath and uttered, "He's dead." When Shellshore looked confused, Flashkit told her mother the wholee story. At the end, Shellshore just hung her head and sighed. "I'll go tell your father." Shellshore plodded to the leader's den to relay the story to Froststar. Flashkit ran back to the nursery and curled up in her nest. Tomorrow would be a better day, she promised herself. Tomorrow, she would not get one of her siblings killed.
