" Wh-what did you three say to Leechpaw..." Rosepaw stood in front of his own brothers as he had taken the courage to approach them as they rested in camp, eating together. Rosepaw's eyes were still red swollen after the crying but after he had returned back to camp had overheared all of the gossips. It seemed to be the only thing all of them could talk about. Leechpaw and how he had tore half of Rowanpaw's ear off. Of course the story that followed that...just like some others in this clan Rosepaw was far from convinced to believe that. Leechpaw wouldn't attack one of thier clanmates like that!. He know because his friend had many times before defended him without physicially attacking any of his siblings!. Some pieces where missing in this story and he was gonna put them all into the right place. Unfortunately he couldn't found Leechpaw to ask him...so here he was confronting his own littermates for the first time. He would never have done a such thing if it had been about himself, but it was different when it was about Leechpaw.
" Huh?, we have already told everyone what happend. " Rowanpaw was the one who spoke up, eyes narrowed as he watched Rosepaw closely. That was far from a satisfied answer to the cinnamon. Inside he felt sick to confront his brothers like this...He was shaking and a part of him just wanted to run away rather then standing up against them. But he couldn't do it this time. They where making Leechpaw look like the bad guy here and he knew that was not the type of person he was!. He had to stand his ground...no matter how emotional wrecking it was. No matter how much he just wanted to break down and cry about it instead. Rosepaw bite his tongue, shifting his paws before shaking his head and rised his head up to look at the three directly. " Th-that's a lie!. Leechpaw would never...he is not that type of person!." Rowanpaw frown in disapproval. " Are you calling me for a liar?." he warned them. Rosepaw was all to familliar with that tone, the hidden message to tell him to shut his mouth especially since they where in camp. Rosepaw didn't dodge away with his gaze, standing tall even if his heart was beating like crazy. He swore it could either jump out from his chest or get choked by it. He just felt so sick...and all he could hear was his own beating heart ringing in his ears... " Y-Yeah!...i...i am!!." his voice where shaking, stumbling over his words but his eyes looked like fire. Despite his anxious emotional state his eyes burned with justice, justice for his friend!.
Rowanpaw hissed and he stood up to get closer to his brother to stare them down. " You really have some nerve brother!. Why are you even asking us this?. Just look what your freak to friend did to my ear!. Who's side are you even on?!. " his friend or his own family?!. Rowanpaw was hoping it would be enough to put his younger brother back in his place, but not this time. Instead a different reaction happened. Rosepaw flattered back his ears. " He...he is not a freak!!." his voice where uncharacteristic loud, and stronger then from his usual soft spoken voice. Even Rowanpaw took a step back at this, along with the other two brothers who eyes widen a slight bit. Rosepaw then flinched, like he realised the tone he just had used, how he for a split second had let anger get the best of him. he retraced back on his words, growing a bit more soft again. " Just...tell me the truth...r-real warriors don't lie..." That was a dangerous game to play, to use the one thing all of them wanted against them. All three of them looked pissed, and it was Flamepaw who stept forward this time as he in anger shoved Rosepaw back. " Dare say that again!!." Rosepaw closed his eyes to flinch away, but only for a second before he opend them again staring at them with judgement. That seemed to be the final straw. One of them snapt, and that was Flamepaw. " Tch!, thats rich coming from you Rosepaw, who is defending the same cat who killed his own littermates!. " Flamepaw said that loudly, a bit to loud perhaps.
Rosepaw hold his breath, and the pieces begin to slowly fall into place. But no...not would his brothers say a such insensitive thing, right?." Don't tell me..." but thier faces said it all, and Flamepaw would snort. " and what if we did?. Everyone knows the story already. He deserved to hear it!. What he did was fucking sick!. " Flamepaw was being to loud but he only stopt when Rowanpaw hissed at him to shut his mouth. They where too much in the open...and Flamepaw had forgotten all about it. The brothers where nervouse now, wondering how many had heared them, who had heared them.
Meanwhile, Rosepaw was too shooked over what he had found out. How cruel his brothers actually could be. Blaming Leechpaw what had happend out there on the thunderpath was too cruel. It had been an accident. Leechpaw had never told him the story over what had happend, he only knew the story Rain his mother had told them all. How Leechpaw had tricked his littermates out on the thunderpath full with monsters that day...How he had got them all killed. That was why his mother had abandoned him but...Rosepaw knew there was more to that story as well. Something just felt off with it...So without knowing Leechpaw side of the story it was wrong to judge him or blame him for what had happend. At least he thought so.
