    Peachtail turned to face the cats by Fallingash, feeling anger well up inside of her. "You're all just monsters! Can't you see that a cat is dying right in front of your eyes? You're not doing anything about it!" The she-cat spat, giving a glare to them all before turning back to Fallingash. How could they all simply stand there and do nothing? Monsters, just monsters. "You have to, you may not live another day if you don't. Please, you did wrong in your life, but that was the past-- there's nothing you can do to change that. Think about the future. Do you want to be known as some cat who'd been nasty all the time? You can change all that if you simply eat this mouse and live. Please, Fallingash." Peachtail pleaded, nudging the mouse forward to him. The mouse's winsome scent wafted around the clearing, seeming to be practically begging for a cat to eat it. Even for Peachtail it was difficult to resist it's lustful smells.

    Pouncequick watched Peachtail. "This is to much for her." Pouncequick thought.

    darkfang stared but then padded up to the tom," if you dont eat.... i will make you.," darkfang meowed as he turned to the she-cat," give me the mouse.," he meowed to her.

    FallingAsh stared down at the mouse with a blank expression and he looked at PeachTail and murmured, "What's the point? There's nothing for me! Not even a clan..." He added in a slight whisper, and he closed his eyes and suddenly began to shake, "My clan fell apart...I was never a leader of it! Why do you think I never took my leader name?" He lowered his eyes and added, "I just never wanted any cat to see me as a...Failure...But I am." FallingAsh's eyes held no pride in them as they normally did and he once again pushed the mouse away, and then laid his head down.

    "You can fix all that, simply please eat the mouse. You have to.." Peachtail pleaded pressing against him. "Please.." She murmured, her breath somewhat shaky with fear held inside of it. "You're cats are worried about you, you have to live."

    Pouncequick sighed hopelessly. She turned her back on the suffering cats and padded out of the clearing.

    FallingAsh blinked and murmured, "One mouse won't count." He shuddered slightly and suddenly felt cold and he positioned his head towards the mouse and he gave a weak, curt nod and he took a small bite. It tasted like splintered wood and he swallowed it painfully and he sighed.

    Peachtail gave a sigh of relief and gave him a gentle lick on his cheek. Thank you, StarClan. She thought to herself. But as Fallingash had said, one mouse wouldn't do much. The cream tabby lifted her head up, hoping to find any carcasses lying around nearby. Perhaps Silkwhisper could hunt. If she was lucky, then it'd be easy prey. Cake walk.

    Leopardfur a pretty silver tabby with black spots padded into the clearing. She looked around the gathering her blue eyes sparkling. So many cats! Leopardfur thought. She was from Riverclan, but her mother was a loner and her father gave her to Leopardfur's mother to raise. She only recently found out about her heritage. Where could she go from here?

    FallingAsh rested the tip of his tail on PeachTail's back and he gazed at her,"PeachTail." He meowed his voice clearer. He was shaking badly now and hisbfur was bristling and he flattened his ears but quickly straifhtened them out, not wanting to look weak.
    What's the point? He thought and shook his head.


    SilkWhisper had hurried off to go hunting and she was on her way back towards FallingAsh and PeachTail a rabbit and two mice crammed in her jaws. It was all she could find in this leaf-bare weather.

    Ivypatch sat down on a rock. She wished she had someone to talk to...

    Peachtail looked down at Fallingash with pleading eyes, partially filled with worry and fear. "Please don't leave the world...don't leave me alone.." She murmured, pressing against him in want of comfort.

    FallingAsh weakly touched his nose to hers and whispered, "I'll be strong for you PeachTail." Ge rested his head back on his paws, and took another bite of the mouse and then quickly finished the rest and he swallowed, and took some wheezy breaths an he forced his eyes to remain open.


    SilkWhisper returned with her fresh kill and she set it down by the pair and she meowed softly, "I'll go get some water..." She went over to PeachTail and pushed her nose, comfortingly into her fur and she whispered, "He'll be ok." Andshe hurried off praying to StarClan that they didn't take him away from PeachTail.
