Description The wind blew gently against the grass.  It was the middle of green-leaf and life was going pretty well for the three Clans of the forest.  There hasn't been a battle since the BladeClan battle seasons before when the Clans first started out and the Clans thought they could see ahead of them unaccountable moons more of peace.  So did one young warrior as he stalked ahead of his patrol towards the NightClan boarder.  His powerful muscles rippled under his golden tabby pelt and his green eyes shown with excitement at this patrol.  For about four moons he was recovering in Tawnyleaf's den with a broken paw and this was his first patrol in so long that he didn't want it to be over for awhile!
"Liongaze, slow down, will ya?"  Liongaze stopped and turned around to wait for his brother Tigerpelt.  Tigerpelt walked out of the bushes with a glare over at his brother.
"Maybe you need to hurry up?" Liongaze countered with an amused glint in his eyes.
"It's not like the boarder is going anywhere!" Flamefur, SkyClan's deputy, pointed out as he joined the two brothers, his flame colored pelt glowing in the sunlight.
"If NightClan moved it, then it went somewhere!" Liongaze mumbled and instantly hoped Flamefur hadn't heard it.
Flamefur flicked his ear but said nothing about the comment.  "Liongaze, I'm leading the patrol," the deputy reminded him.  "So you'll follow me!"
With that, he walked past Liongaze and through the bushes towards the NightClan boarder leaving Tigerpelt and Liongaze with no other option than to follow.  Tigerpelt flicked his tail over Liongaze's ear before he trotted to catch up to Flamefur.  Liongaze let out a sigh and followed more slowly.  As soon as he was done patrolling, he could take Sunpaw out and train; at least then he could run around like he wanted to!
Liongaze and Tigerpelt finally caught up to Flamefur and quickly made it to the boarder.  They weren't greeted by any NightClan patrol and they laid their scent markers down.  Liongaze smiled.  There was still peace and even BrightClan was showing less hostility since the mishap at their boarder when Liongaze had accidentally stepped over the boarder.  It had resulted in a battle and that's when he broke his paw.  He shivered at the memory.
The cat he had fought with was a warrior named Kinktail.  His blue eyes shown with so much hate towards Liongaze that the SkyClan warrior had almost fled right there from fright!  He would have been killed if Rockstream, the BrightClan deputy, hadn't have showed up and pulled Kinktail off of him.  Liongaze noticed something about Kintail's eyes…they were black when he was fighting the SkyClan warrior but once Rockstream pulled him off of Liongaze, his eyes were blue again.  Liongaze thought nothing of it at the time, but as time went on, and as he recovered, he began to think about it again.
"Have you seen Kinktail in the past moon?" Liongaze asked his brother quietly as Flamefur sniffed at some ferns ahead of them.
"Kinktail?  Of BrightClan?" Tigerpelt inquired and when Liongaze nodded his head he lashed his tail.  "Why would I see him?"
"Have you been by the boarder at all?" Liongaze hissed quietly and was beginning to get annoyed at his brother.
"No, I haven't.  And if you're thinking about that battle, Liongaze, you can stop now!" Tigerpelt mewed quietly and narrowed his eyes slightly.  "He was crazy to just attack you like that but there's nothing else to it!"
Liongaze let out a sigh but nodded at his brother.  I guess I'll just have to figure it out on my own! he growled to himself before pushing past his brother to catch up to Flamefur.
