Help! (Open)

All this time tears had been gathering in Lillywhisker's eyes (can cats cry?). Bitting in a breath she blinked back a tear but to no avail, the single tear fell to the ground, leaving a dark mark in it's place.. How couldn't they see she wasn't with Lurkclan? "I don't know, I think she was attacked by another cat." Her shimmering eyes turned slightly colder. "You'd probably want her dead anyway. She's the perfect example of a Lurkclan cat. But I'd die trying to save her, she's my one of my only friends, and her life is worth more than mine any day."

The gray tom clenched his teeth, and stopped Lillywhisker from speaking with his tail. He looked at her, pain filling his eyes. He didn't want to tell her, that this was mainly his fault.

He stared out at them all, his fur bristling slightly.

"Lillywhisker is right, with a cat attacking her. But the one who did, is standing right here!"

His gaze turned to Lillywhisker, feeling ashamed of himself. He scuffled his paws, and looked out towards the other cats.

"Yes, me. But you want to know why? She wanted to hurt my mate. She wanted to kill her! I had a reason, but now I'm trying to help save her!"

His tail was fluffed out, his eyes clenched closed.

"Lillywhisker, please forgive me!"

His eyes openned, and rested on the whole camp of Shadowclan.

"And please forgive me for everything. I shouldn't of bugged you, and I know that you think I'm part of LurkClan. Honestly, I hate it, but I don't like seeing cats harmed, so I am helping Leo out!"

His tail was still fluffed up, hearing a she-cat wail up.

"Don't trust him! He's just another LurkClan cat!

[/i]"

His eyes turned to her, and hung his head low, with ears flat against his head.

Hawkpaw tilted his head at the word friend, even when he said it. "I don't know what it feels like to have friends, but I'll gladly come with you and help your friend, and maybe I can find a friend of my own." Hawkpaw said with a hard to make out smile on his face.

Swiftstar heard Hawkpaw and spat. "Fine! Go if you want to Hawkpaw, I will exile you as soon as you leave!" Swiftstar said as he turned to go back to his den.

Clear heard what HawkPaw. He nodded his thanks, but looked at Swiftstar. His teeth clenched, and ran up to him, stopping him from leaving.

"Listen, don't do that. Do you really want to see any cat die? Is that what you like?"

He shook his head, and sat in SwiftStar's way.

"Please.. have a heart! The younger ones have more of a heart than their own leader! "

The black she-cat yipped up again.

"No one should go with them! They'll capture you!

[/i]"

The gray tom turned his dark green gaze to the she-cat, and growled.

"I won't allow that!"

He turned his gaze back at SwiftStar.

"As for I won't allow to have a cat die."

Starkit glared at Swiftstar, then turned his gaze to Runningpath, his soft green eyes calm. He padded over, small paws swishing silently through the dirt. I know you don't like them but could atleast make an attempt. I know that due to some past.........encounters that they've earned your blacklist but you can't hold a grudge against every kit, apprentice, and cat that has their lives in that clan. What Swiftstar is doing Isn't right. But I'm going to try and fix his perspective of things. He flicked his tail, irritation coursing through him.

(Heh heh. If Starkit were to become a leader his name would be Starstar. *snickle*)

Swiftstar just hissed at Clear. "I don't care! Lurkclanners are Lurkclanners! I don't trust them! I don't trust any cat!" Swiftstar said immediately noticing the mistake of 'not trusting'. He put his ears back and the fire in his eyes dropped down. "I can only trust one cat..."

Hawkpaw shrunk down and ran toward the entrance. "I will leave, you aren't much of a leader anyways." Hawkpaw said tears filling his eyes. His leader wanted to exile an apprentice! Then he said he doesn't trust him!

Clear stared at SwiftStar, his ears folding back against his head.

"So, you don't care if a cat dies? You don't care about exiling an apprentice?"

His fur was now bristling, his own tail fluffing out. He looked towards the nursery, the black she-cat running over to SwiftStar. She seemed to slide infront of Clear, staring at her leader.

"You don't trust anyone? You are willing to exile an Apprentice..? You don't trust me! How dare you! When I always tried to help you in tough times, I can't believe you!

[/i]"

Her eyes seem to fill with sorrow, pain, and agony. Clear looked at her, pity in his eyes. He watched her run off to the nursery. With that, he turned his head, to SwiftStar.

"Do you dare call yourself a Leader, when you don't care if a cat dies, how your clanmates feel?"

He stood up, and padded past him, pausing beside him.

"I can't believe you."

He murmur'd, walking over to Lillywhisker.

"Let's go."

Swiftstar glared at Clear, but tears filled his eyes. He went into his den, all the way to the back and lay down. This is where I will stay, in the shadows of my den. I am no leader, just a rouge.

Hawkpaw decided to go with Lilywhisker and Clear. He gazed up at Clear, his eyes sparkling with his tears. "I want to come with you, I have no clan anymore."

The gray tom looked at HawkPaw, and nuzzled him slightly.

"He did not mean it, he is full of anger right now. Little one, stay here. You belong here, not where this LurkClan lies. I may not be a LurkClan cat, but I have fought a certain she-cat, which is not the kind of cat you should be hanging with."

He looked at the leader walk off, his gaze turning to LillyWhisker.

"You go, I'll catch up.. I got to go speak with someone before I leave."

He turned, and ran off to where SwiftStar went, going in the den he had been in. He saw the leader laying near the back. He sighed, padding up next to him.

He looked down at him, and sighed.

"Don't take what I said so harshly.. I'm just a loner, you know. What I say does not matter."

He looked at the ground, scuffling his paws.

Shadowpelt looked to Runningpath bounding over, "Leo, isn't that the cat that... killed Whispertail?" she mewed.

The black she-cat's head turned over to her friend, at least she thought she was a friend, ShadowPelt.

"Yes..."

She murmured.

"I want to go follow.. but I know I must stay here with my kits.."

Swiftstar just turned his head away from Clear. "No, you were right, I am not a leader, I just am a stupid cat."

Hawkpaw ran outside the entrance. I have to go somewhere else, it might not be with them, but at least it is away from here.

What is going to happen to me? [/center]

The gray tom stared at him in disbelief, and shook his head.

"No, you are a good leader, you should not trust no LurkClan cat. Heck, you shouldn't trust me! I don't hurt a fly, only if it is nessicary, believe me if you wish. Lillywhisker, yes, she might be part of LurkClan, but she isn't like them all, she hates to fight."

He sighed, and looked at his paws, scuffling them slightly.

"What you say, and what the black she-cat said, is true, never trust them.. but Please, just this once, trust me and Lillywhisker."

His gaze turned to the leader, his ears flickering slightly.

Swiftstar flicked his ears and tail, signaling for Clear to get away.

Spottedfire's fur was beginning to stand on end. What's going on with you, Swiftstar? Dread prickling in her pawsteps, the deputy carefully crept into the now slightly crowded den. She flicked her tail to Clear before saying anything. The tom was a loner. Spottedfire had never had a fondness for any cat outside her own Clan, but in times such as these, a loner was better than a LurkClan cat. She would just have to put up with his presence.

"Swiftstar, I understand that you don't trust the LurkClan cats. None of us do. If we found them on ShadowClan territory, we'd shred them on sight. But the she-cat Lilywhisker isn't trying to claim our territory or raid our camp. She's here because she required help that couldn't be found in her own.. group of cats. Giving aid and showing pity to a cat outside our Clan isn't a crime. Even StarClan tells us that we must help any kit that is in danger, no matter where it calls home." She paused, then lowered her voice to almost a whisper. "And all ShadowClan cats are loyal to you. You must learn to trust us as you once did."
