Barley's barn

[Icestar]

Icestar licked her two kits. "Mom, what were those big things that attacked you?" Oakkit meows getting away from Icestar's licks.
"Those were dogs. I'm afraid what Twilightmoon has warned me happened." Icestar looks down.
"That's right dear Icestorm." Hawkstar stood in front of her.
"Hawkstar, is that you?" Icestar looks up. Oakkit and Mousekit looked at Hawkstar with wide eyes.
"It's a Starclan cat!" Mousekit squeaked happily. Oakkit tackled Mousekit and they rolled around together.
"Yes, Brokenheart is now Brokenstar. I'm the only one that thought you didn't leave on purpose." Hawkstar looks down at her.
"I-I-I-I'm now Icestorm?" Icestorm looks at Hawkstar. "What about Mousekit and Oakkit? They're now out of the clan."
"I'm afraid you'll have to raise them yourself. Brokenstar wouldn't like to find your kits coming back. He wanted them gone and you too." Hawkstar looks at Icestorm one last time and then vanishes. Icestorm lies down on the ground while her tow kits played with some of the hay in the barn.

[Icestar]

Icestorm got down into position to jump and hid her kits behind her as two black cats looked at her. "Don't come any closer." She snarls at them. They both took a step back form Icestorm.

"Icestar? Is that you?" Stormstar asks bewildered.

[Icestar]

Icestorm turned to Stormstar. Ravenpaw, one of the black cats looked bewildered also. "This is young Icepaw?" Ravenpaw meows. Barley just looks from Stormstar to Icestorm and back.
"Mom!" Oakkit meows scared. Mousekit just hides under Icestorm.
"Stormstar," Icestorm turns away. "I'm not Icestar, I'm Icestorm." Oakkit looks from Stormstar to his mom and then to the two black cats. Midnightfur pokes his head in from behind Stormstar.
"Icestar!" Midnightfur runs in and then stops himself. "You're not Icestar anymore."

Stormstar walked slowly up to Icestorm. "Are you alright?"

[Icestar]

"I'm fine except for all the dog scratches and bites I have." Icestorm meows. Oakkit and Mousekit settle down and start play fighting in the hay. Barley and Raven paw walk up to them.

"Are you going to come back to the forest?" Stormstar asked.

[Icestar]

"I don't know. I just need to stay away from Thunderclan and Broken-" Icestorm cut herself off. "I trusted him." She sighs. Midnightfur puts his tail on her shoulder. Oakkit and Mousekit tackle Barley and Ravenpaw.

[kcb500]

"You could stay in Riverclan." Stormstar suggested.

[Icestar]

"Oh, would I be accepted by you're other cats in the clan?" Icestorm stands up. Oakkit and Mousekit looked up from Barley and Ravenpaw.
"We're going back home!" They both jumped off them and hurried over to Icestorm.

[kcb500]

"You would be fine." Stormstar assured.

[Icestar]

"We are going home! We're going home!" Oakkit and Mousekit pounce around Barley and Ravenpaw.
"Not back to Thunderclan though." Icestorm stops her two kits. "We're going to Riverclan." They both nod and walk out of the barn with Icestorm. Midnightfur follows them.

Stormstar follows, happy that he found his sister.
