Meeting Between 2 Leaders

The fox looked over at Icestar and threw Cloudstar away before beginning to sprint to her.

Cloudstar hit a tree and blacked out.

Icestar growled and slashed. She sprinted around to tire the fox out.

The fox fell for Icestar's trick and chased her. Soon it collapsed from tire.

Blood trickled down the side of Cloudstar's mouth.

Icestar raced over to Cloudstar. "Cloudstar! My love! Don't be dead!"

Cloudstar mumbled a little and opened his eyes just a little. He groaned and tried to move his mangled leg.

Icestar started to cry. "I will bring you home. No, you need to stay here tonight. Come on."

Cloudstar tried to move but he groaned when he did.

Icestar ran and grabbed some moss, thane went back and made an area for them to sleep.

Cloudstar laid toppled on a tree root as she did. The only thing he could move was his paws and tail. He saw a blurry image of Icestar and closed his eyes.

Icestar grabbed more moss and put it on Cloudstar's leg. It soaked up right away, so she got more, than curled up next to him, and fell asleep.

Cloudstar soon fell asleep curled up next to Icestar.

~The next morning~

When Cloudstar woke up, his leg tingled but he felt a lot better. He can move everything except his leg. He looked at Icestar sleeping and slowly slipped himself out of her reach. He limped out of then den with his wounded leg high off the ground and looked around. The fox was gone. He sighed in relief and flicked his tail. He flexed his sore paws.

Icestar awoke, and saw Cloudstar sitting. "What are you doing?"

Cloudstar looked over at her. "Just getting some air." He replied.

Icestar rubbed against Cloudstar. "How's your leg?"

"Painful. But better then yesterday." He said. He yawned and licked her cheek. "How about you?"

"Very good. I was worried about you, and your clan might be too, but go lay back down, and I'm gonna get us something for breakfast."

Cloudstar nodded and limped back into the tree, settling down on the moss.

Icestar went off and caught 2 mice and a vole. She brought them back to Cloudstar, settled next to him and started eating her vole.

Cloudstar nibbled on one of the mouses, finished the first, then nibbled on the second.

Icestar smiled. "We need to get back to our clans soon. They'll be worried."

Cloudstar nodded. "And they'll be even more worried when they see my wound." He looked at his leg in worry.

"Say you got attacked by a fox. "

"I was. But suspicion might arise on why we were gone from camp a whole day. They would expect us to come straight to camp after being attacked. But what they would also be puzzled about is why we returned to our camps at the same time."

"First, say you were to wounded to go back, than I'll hunt for a while, than go back."

"But-" Cloudstar stopped. "Fine. I guess that'll work."
