IT'S SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST RICH AGAINST THE POOR. Fernpaw looked at the other apprentice and let out an obvious shudder. Birds! Fernpaw was a rather small cat, and she felt like she could be easy picking for a hawk or an eagle to swoop by and take her. She let out her claws and they dug into the ground as she walked, the young she-cat looking up into the sky out of nervous habit. She scanned the top of the trees and let out a breath of relief that there were no hawks soaring around. She let her claws continue to scrape the dirt, afraid that the moment she retracted them she may very well need them. "Birds...could you imagine?" She said, voice in awe and shock. "Maybe it's even Twolegs! but I doubt Pebblestar would let them take her; she would put up a fight a Two-leg never seen!" Fernpaw purred admiringly. She looked at Leopardpaw and felt her fur ruffle. When, now she seemed like an even bigger mouse-brain. To her, the leader was the one with the true power set by Starclan to choose who could be made warriors. Did Leopardpaw mean she wouldn't care if Briarclaw led her warrior ceremony? Fernpaw felt as though Pebblestar should be the one, always. With a sad realization, the younger apprentice came to the conclusion that Briarclaw could become Briarstar. She sped up pace, trotting farther from camp. "I just admire Pebblestar so much," she confessed innocently. "Imagining anyone taking her place is hard." She leaped forward, not waiting for the cat to respond, but it was clear that Fernpaw was upset at the lack of knowledge the clan had about their beloved leader. As each day passed, she couldn't help but get the feeling that she would never see Pebblestar again. And if she did, it wouldn't be good. /td]

Leopardpaw heard Fernpaws comment about the birds and she frowned the tip of her tail twitching back and forth as she thought of what she should say. She did think huge birds were terrible but she wasn't sure if she hated all the birds since birds could be turned into prey. 'I guess it just depends on what people think about birds,' she thought flicking her ears back and forth. She blinked and looked over at Fernpaw deciding that she should say something about the other apprentices bird comment so that she would know that she had heard it. "Huge birds can be terrible but most birds can be turned into prey," she meowed looking up at the sky as she spoke. "You know, Rosepaw's father was blinded by one of those birds in the bird battle those moons ago. I think I would rather be killed by a bird than for it to blind me," she meowed letting her gaze drop away at the sky and she walked on in silence until Fernpaw said something else.

Hearing Fernpaw mention twolegs she glanced at the younger apprentice in surprise. She hadn't thought of twolegs being a possible suspect in her leaders disappearance since twolegs didn't usually come into Talonclan territory. The last time she had heard anything about twolegs being in the territory was sometime after she had started her training. She could remember it because Rosepaw had just become an apprentice and she had been furious to learn that she wouldn't be able to go out in the territory and that all the apprentices would have to do apprentice duties until the twolegs left. She blinked the memory dissolving and she frowned. "I never really thought about the fact that twolegs may be the suspects in Pebblestars disappearance. Twolegs don't usually come up here but when they do come up here they cause problems for everyone," she meowed with a sigh, "If twolegs did come across Pebblestar that would have wounds that would make any scarred warrior cringe," she boasted showing that she thought her leader was some invincible type of cat.

"I admire Pebblestar as well, but I also admire Briarclaw. She was right to come out in the open at the last gathering that our leader was missing and she was right to warn the other clans what would happen if they were somehow responsible for our leader having gone missing," Leopardpaw meowed smiling slightly. "Though admittedly I don't like how Briarclaw talked Pebblestar into letting Duskflame stay. I understand we need a medicine cat but I'm sure Starclan has some former medicine cats in their ranks who could train any cats in the clans to become a medicine cat," she meowed looking around as she spoke. "I wish Starclan would show us some signs about where are leader is," she meowed the tip of her tail twitching back and forth as she spoke. "I bet she returns though, and I bet she'll have some great stories to tell us when she does return," she meowed. "Look at it this way I heard one time that Sunsetclans leader went missing, Ratstar, and she returned to her clan," she meowed glancing at the younger apprentice her eyes glimmering.
