The old black cat looked at Flamestar more closely, curious by this cat who called himself a leader. " The upwalkers I don't mind much, at least they feed me. But rude cats could eat crow-food for all I care, " he spat his last words.

Sunkit exchanged a glance with Bramblekit. We need to hear this story!, said the look on her face. She had forgotten about the moss entirely and was listening to the stranger speak with Flamestar.

Dawnstar watched the exchange cautiously from the nursery, eyeing the new cat.

Flamestar nodded and looked at he black cat. "Well DesertClan won't chase off a cat for no real reason. If you wish we have some fresh kill you can have some of you'd like." He said gently. "As for Upwalkers the ones I've met, they tried to catch me in some sort of stick" he said with a sigh.

Ashpelt nodded and glanced towards the nursery. He continued to listen to the two cats curiously. Though he stayed close to his kits in case the stranger went hostile.

The old cat made a small laughing noise, " No upwalker wants to catch an old, ragged thing like me. Figure I'll probably die soon enough. Unfortunately for them, I live, " he said, standing up slightly taller. " I like you, you seem like a fine cat. My name is Dusty, "

Dawnpelt wasn't surprised that Flamestar offered this strange old cat food, she knew her leader well. She didn't quiet trust this cat, but her interest was peaked when he mentioned the twoleg place. I'll need to speak to him before he wanders off, she thought.

"Nice to meet you, Dusty." Flamestar said respectfully and dipped his head. "I'm Flamestar, and these cats are my warriors" he replied and flicked his tail towards the clan.

Ashpelt relaxed slightly as the new cat seemed to be less hostile than when he first showed up. He then leaned down to his kits "Come on let's get back to the nursery we can finish the day when Flamestar finishes talking to this cat" he said in a gentle whisper.

Bramblekit looked like he was going to protest but he nodded in defeat after Ashpelt muttered something about a story.

Dusty's ears pricked at the word 'warriors'. Ah, so its those kind of folk..., he thought, looking around at the Desertclan cats. " So, where is this 'fresh-kill' pile you mentioned?," he asked, looking back to Flamestar.

Sunkit lingered before following behind her brother and Ashpelt. I wonder if we'll get to talk to him, she thought as she padded towards the nursery.

"Right next to the elders den" Flamestar meowed and nodded to the pile of prey near a small pile of rocks. "You're more than welcome to have something"

Ashpelt walked towards the nursery with Bramblekit behind him. He looked at Dawnpelt and purred gently. Bramblekit wen past his parents and into the nursery.

" Hmpf, very good..." Dusty nodded and headed towards the fresh-kill pile without another word. Hunting had become harder for him lately and he was hungrier than he wanted to admit. He grabbed a thrush from the pile and did his best to eat slowly. Can't let these desert cats think im weak..., he thought in between bites.

Dawnpelt brushed her tail along Ashpelt's side. " How did apprentice duty go? " she mewed, glancing at her kits as they filed into the nursery. " Seems your work got interrupted, " she said with amusement.

Flamestar watched as Dusty walked to the fresh kill pile. He sat down and looked around the camp.

"Yeah that new cat came by and stopped us" Bramblekit mewled quietly and sat down.

Ashpelt purred "we'll finish the warrior's den soon" he meowed kindly.

Bramblekit nodded and flicked an ear "hey Ashpelt when was Flamestar a rogue?"

Sunkit jumped beside her brother, " Yes! We need to hear about this, " she mewed excitedly.

Dawnpelt smirked, " If Ashpelt tells you a story, you need to promise me you'll help him finish re-mossing the warrior's den. Otherwise, some warriors will be cranky when they go to sleep tonight," she said with an amused look.

"We promise!" Bramblekit mewled gently. "We'll get the warrior's den done after he tells us the story" he mewled quietly.

Ashpelt purred and laughed "alright. Though of you fall asleep you can't help replace the moss in the den. You'll have to replace he moss in the nursery" he said warmly adding the last part as a false threat as he'd still help the kits.

Sunkit rubbed against Ashpelt's front legs, " We won't fall asleep, we're top excited! Please, just tell us this story," she said, giving her best doe eyes to Ashpelt.

Dawnpelt padded over to where Dusty was eating his thrush. He looked up warily as she approached him, " What? This is mine," he grumbled. Dawnpelt flicked an ear as she sat by him, " I'm not here to take your food - we don't do that in the clan," she said evenly. Dusty gave her a suspicious look before continuing to eat. Dawnpelt spoke up again, " I heard you met cats in the twoleg place. " she mewed. " Do you think you could tell me more about them?" she asked calmly. Dusty gave her an annoyed look. " They were dirty and rude," he said simply, taking more bites of his meal.

Ashpelt purred "alright" he mewed after saying goodbye to Dawnpelt. He then sat down and curled his tail around his paws. "Back when Flamestar was an apprentice, and before Dawnpelt and I were even born." He mewed trying to remember the story how Flamestar told it to him.

Sunkit snuggled up to Ashpelt, looking at him with curiosity and interest. It was hard to imagine a time before her parents were alive. How long has Desertclan been here?, she wondered.

Dawnpelt flicked her tail in annoyance as she watched the black rogue cat eat. Perhaps I should try questioning him after he's full and content..., she thought. " If you think of anything else, I'd love to hear more, " she mewed, getting to her paws. Dusty glanced at her, nodding slightly, and resumed eating. Dawnpelt sighed and walked towards where Fallentree and Feathercloud were speaking. " So, picked up a stray?," she meowed.

"Flamestar-Flamepaw at the time- was only a few moons older than you two. He was on a patrol with his mentor, Tigerpelt, Russetleaf, and his sister Silverpaw. When the patrol found a loner cat on the territory" he continued. He partially glanced out of the nursery towards the loner that just came back to the camp.

Fallentree looked over to Dawnpelt. "I tried to ask him why he was on our territory, but he wouldn't listen to me" he said kindly.

" Are loners like rogues?" Sunkit asked quietly. She still wasn't sure how to feel about the strange cat that had come to their camp that day.

" It's alright, he seems a bit...senile." Dawnpelt said, glancing at Dusty, who had finished his bird and was eyeing the fresh-kill pile again. " He doesn't appear to be a threat. But, he may know something useful about the rogue cats." she said, her tail swishing the ground. " Which brings me to my point - I would like you, Feathercloud, and Duskwind to go on a stealth mission into the twoleg place. We need know more about these rogues, " she said.

Feathercloud looked over at Dawnpelt and flicked her tail. "Sure. Now?" She asked, licking her paw and drawing it over her ears.

"Loners are like rogues to the point that they don't rely on a clan, or Twolegs. Though a Loner is different from a rogue as rogues will live in groups. Loners are well... alone" he mewed gently. He then continued the story. "The loner was fighting a dog, the animal had run from its twoleg. Flamepaw and he patrol watched the fight, and the loner managed to win"

"I think Duskwind left camp. He looked kind of upset about something. He walked out of the elders den and into the forest" Fallentree meowed and tried to think of where Duskwind could have gone.

Dawnpelt looked away, a mild look of concern on her face. " He'll come back, eventually. I don't want you to leave until just before dawn tomorrow, anyway. Rest tonight, " she said. " This mission is reconnaissance only - I don't want you getting into any fights if at all possible, " she said. " I want to know how many rogues have banded together with Sandfeather, and I want to know where the rogue cats have been living." If they live together in any sense at all, Dawnpelt thought to herself.

Sunkit's eyes widened, " Wow! He must have been a really strong warrior, " she said, imagining a lone cat fighting in her mind.

Fallentree nodded "very well, Dawnpelt. If I see Duskwind I'll tell him he's on he patrol" he said respectfully.

"Well he wasn't a warrior, but he was a strong cat." Ashpelt continued. "After the loner left the territory, the patrol returned home. Flamepaw was becoming restless. He wanted to be as strong as that loner" Ashpelt sighed and flicked an ear. "A few moons later, when Snowstorm, and I were kits, Flamepaw came to the nursery and said goodbye. He was planning on running away"

Dawnpelt nodded, " Thank you, Fallentree. If any other cats ask you what you're doing, tell them I'm sending out extra border patrols. I'd rather not worry the rest of the clan, " she said.

Sunkit gasped, " Running away? So he left to become a rogue on purpose?", she asked in shock.

Almost on cue, Duskwind padded through the entrance to the camp, carrying two desert rabbits in his jaws. The sun was low in the sky, casting long shadows throughout the camp. The orange light reflected in his Duskwind's eyes, as he wordlessly carried his prey to the fresh-kill pile. " Huh? Who in Starclan are you??," Duskwind meowed, as he saw Dusty grab one of the rabbits. Dusty's fur bristled as he carried one of the rabbits into the elder's den, casting fearful looks at Duskwind. Duskwind looked around the camp, baffled, hoping someone would enlighten him.
