Run Away

RUN AWAY 

Leafpool had run away.

Away from home, from ThunderClan, from responsibility and her family.

''But she was happy now. Because she was with Crowfeather, and she bore his kits. Jay, Lion and Soot. Jay was blind, and so curious of the Clans, and his parents' names. Lion was so brave, and sometimes foolish. Soot was law-abiding, but sweet and funny too.''

''Leafpool loved them more than anything, but she sometimes wished she'd stayed. She wanted Squirrelflight back. She wanted Sandstorm back. She wanted Firestar back. But most of all, she wanted Clan life back. ''

''When Leafpool's kits are twelve moons old, they will receive warrior names. Their parents have not forgotten the warrior code, and their kits will follow it.''

They live far beyond the borders, but HeartClan will live forever.

And so will love.
