Fire and Ice/Chapter 17

==Chapter Summery== The chapter starts off on the Thunderpath, with Fireheart realizing that Cinderpaw still alive, although her leg is badly twisted and broken. As he tries to care for her, Tigerclaw appears and looks shocked at the sight. The two carry Cinderpaw back to the camp, while Fireheart feels guilty for being unable to control his apprentice and teach her obedience. They then bring Cinderpaw to the medicine cat's den and explain what happened.

As Yellowfang begins treating Cinderpaw, Fireheart leaves to go watch over Bluestar with Goldenflower as Bluestar developed greencough earlier. When Bluestar begins to lose a life, Fireheart and Goldenflower try to stop it and treat her, but their efforts are in vain. Bluestar is left with one life left. Soon after, it begins to snow outside.

The next morning, ThunderClan awakes to find everything covered in a layer of snow. Fireheart goes to check on Cinderpaw in the medicine cat's den. There, Yellowfang tells him that Cinderpaw can no longer be an apprentice, let alone a warrior, as her leg has been too badly injured. Grief stricken, Fireheart leaves to comfort Graystripe about his forbidden meetings with Silverstream.
