[Twi, Foxeh] Oh, how to explain?

[♫Spiralrain]

Spiralpaw rushed into the medicine cats den, adreneline rushing through his viens as quickly as water down a stream, or so it seemed. He had just returned from the moonpool, thoughts of Bellrose still fresh in his young mind. Still panting, he ran over to the small pool in the back of the den, lapping the water with his soft pibk tongue. Lifting his head and licking his lips, Spiralpaw called; "Lonehowl?" He had no idea where his mentor was, he knew that he had gone ahead of his while the spotted apprentice had talked to Bellrose, but not where he had gone. Blinking his brown eyes, he starred blankly at the den entrance for a moment before walking over to the supply of herbs to check if they needed anymore of anything. "Need more tansy .... Watermint is fine, ..... Feverfew..."

Everybody's speaking,
But you don't know what they're saying,
You're just guessing meanings
Why can't we communicate?

Ice blue eyes carefully watched Spiralpaw as he entered the Medicine Cat den-late, with an exhilerated look in his eyes. He was breathless, and seemed rather frazzled. Twilightstar frowned disapprovingly, she could sense something was wrong, and that was not good. The she-cat thought for a moment what she should say to the tom, or how to approach him.

The femcat strode out to Spiralpaw, making it seem that she had just come from her den. Hello Spiralpaw. Why are you so out of breath? Twilightstar mewed innocently, her tone purposely laced with suspition that could make him more stubborn or give in faster. Her orbs flitted around, looking for Lonehowl as she wanted him to be part of this conversation as well.

Twilightstar worried about her medicine cats, they seemed rather distant and nervous lately. She didn't like it at all. Lonehowl always hid his emotions, playing it smooth. Twilightstar decided she needed to have a private talk with him. Lonehowl wasn't just Twilightstar's medicine cat, he was one of her best friends. It hurt her to see how much he hid from her. It's because I'm leader. The leader knew that was the reason, why would he tell the leader about his troubles if he had to hide them?

[♫Spiralrain]

The sound of soft paw steps from the entrance of the medicine cats den make Spiralpaw turn, facing his leader, Twilightstar. The omen that Pineclaw had given him passed through his mind; 'Claws shall tear through the forest. River and Moor beware. Aid shall come to those who need it.' The spotted tabby apprentice had figure out that River and Moor was RiverClan and WindClan, but what did that have to o with ShadowClan? 'Hello Spiralpaw. Why are you so out of breath?' When Spiralpaw looked into his leaders eyes, he could see the faintest trace of suspicion, and even more concern. "I just got back from the Moonpool, I was in a hurry." the small apprentice told her with an innocent smile, she wanted to play a game, he would go along with it.

In my field of paper flowers,
And candy clouds of lullabies
I lie beside myself for hours,
And watch my purple sky fly over me

Fine. He could act that way, he could play along. Twilightstar wouldn't play along anymore, though. "Alright, quit the game. What's up, Spiralpaw? I can see right through your lies." She would be patient for as long as possible, if he tried to hide anything again, she'd lose it.

Twilightstar felt betrayed, it seemed like nobody cared about her feelings anymore. Everyone hid their secrets from her. She hated it, she just wanted to yowl to StarClan and give it up. No, stop! It was too late, all of her sanity, gone. Whisked away. No more mercy, consequences would be charged to those who did wrong.

The sane part of her told her that it was ok, she just needed rest. However, the not-so-sane part of her mind told her to just run away and escape it all. She twitched as she fought with her own mind, and then couldn't take it much longer.

[♫Spiralrain]

Spiralpaw exhailed a gust of aggrivation. He hadn't expected his leader to be so touchy tonight. His ear twitched in surprise as she questioned his fiercly. 'Alright, quit the game. What's up, Spiralpaw? I can see right through your lies.' Spiralpaw narrow his eyes as if in suspicion, but then opened then wide, in an uncomfortable realization, and turned away. What was he doing? He's a medicine cat for StarClans sake! Why would he feel the need to hide form his leader? the young bangle tom turned around to face his leader cold, icy stare.

He decided to tell Twilightstar what Pineclaw had told him, the foreboding prophecy. he would tell her it made his heart race and sputter, instead of Bellrose doing that, making him excited and anxious. If his Clan knew that he was in love with a ThunderClan cat, ThunderClan medicine cat no less, Twilightstar woud have his hide.

"Pineclaw came to me tonight," Spiralpaw explained in a calm voice, metting his leaders gaze with a level stare. "She told me: `Claws shall tear through the forest. River and Moor beware. Aid shall come to those who need it.` I don't get it!" It made the young apprentice so angry almost to the point of insanity that he could not figure out the omen. He clenched his teeth, grinding them in his mouth as he waited for what his leader had to say.

It made him uncomfortabel to know that he had to keep secrets from his leader, from his Clan. He had a strong feeling of lust when he thought about Bellrose. Spiralpaw shook his head, and planted his brown gaze once more on Twilightstar.

I tried to kill the pain,
But only brought more,
So much more

He was so experated, she could tell. It made her want to laugh in the cold, malicious part of her mind. The sane part was begging the leader to get ahold of herself and suck it up. Her own feelings didn't matter. The Clan mattered, Prophecies mattered. Twilightstar sighed, angry at herself, but she couldn't help it.

What was Spiralpaw contemplating right now? Why was he acting so strange? He spoke words, words that terrified the young leader, she wanted to whimper to her mother. River and moor are WindClan... She took several moments to attempt and decipher the prophecy in her mind. "RiverClan and WindClan will suffer something...claws what could it mean??"

[♫Spiralrain]

Spiralpaw watched in sudden fear as his leaders expression twisted into different things as the silence captured his voice. He was afraid to speak, afraid of what Twilightstar might say, or do, to him if his mouth ran away with him and he said something he would regret. A light breeze sounded outside, and with how cold he already felt; Spiralpaw was glad that the walls of the medicine den was shielding them from the cold winds. Something like telling her about Bellrose. He shivered right before she spoke.

'RiverClan and WindClan will suffer something...claws what could it mean??' A course of anger flowed through his body at her less-then-helpful response. The brown tabby fur on his back ruffled up at his next choice of words, though he didn't speak them aloud. "Yes, I've figured that part out." He said in a voice as composed as he could manage. "All I know is that some thing is going to hit WindClan and RiverClan, hard." Spiralpaw put emphasis on the word hard so that Twilightstar would be able to realize the kind of trouble he had seem in his dream. The memory of the screeches, and the sound of claws tearing through fur was unbearable. He winced at the memory.
