Chapter Summary

The chapter begins in Dovepaw's POV, as she awakes coldly, noting how cold the den was without Bumblestripe or Blossomfall in it. She hears Ivypaw whimpering in her sleep, and jabs her awake. Their mother, Whitewing, pokes her head in to ask if they were okay, and Dovepaw replies saying that her sister was only having a bad dream. Finally managing to get Ivypaw awake, Dovepaw exclaims that she is hurt. Ivypaw shrugs it off, but Dovepaw accuses her of being in the Place of No Stars again. Ivypaw exits to join the others as Brambleclaw, the ThunderClan deputy, organized the dawn patrol.

Dovepaw follows, but sees that her sister had disappeared. She noticed Lionblaze talking with fellow Clan members about paw prints that came from a fox. He tells Dovepaw to join Brackenfur's patrol, and Dovepaw obeys, scurrying along to join the senior warrior. The patrol separates for better results, and Dovepaw announces that she'll head towards the stream. She leaves, heading towards the stream alone.

Sensing prey, Dovepaw scanned the branches above her. She hears a rustle, distracting her, followed by ShadowClan smell. After a second rustle, Tigerheart emerged. Dovepaw defensively asks why he's on ThunderClan territory, but Tigerheart responds asking her why she's on ShadowClan territory. Dovepaw sniffs around, sensing the border behind Tigerheart. The ShadowClan warrior realizes he was the one who crossed the border, then goes on to say that the cold has killed every scent. Dovepaw understandably agrees, and the two begin in a playful banter.

Dovepaw senses a patrol coming, and alerts Tigerheart to go back on his side. He tells her he wants to see her again that night, and Dovepaw agrees to do so. She runs back, bumping into Lionblaze, Spiderleg, and Squirrelflight. Dovepaw explains that she was hunting upon questioning. Lionblaze says that hunting by yourself won't do any good, and advises that she just head back to camp and patch up the warrior's den. Dovepaw heads that way, abandoning her hunting.

Dovepaw walks in on Jayfeather and Millie in a heated debate. Millie accuses Jayfeather of pushing Briarlight too hard, but Jayfeather responds saying that it's better than her just lying in her nest. Leafpool runs from the warriors' den, defending Jayfeather by saying that Briarlight isn't in any pain. Jayfeather hotly responds saying he can deal with this himself. Millie gets upset due to the fact that her kit struggles to do everyday tasks, but is cut off when Briarlight emerges from the medicine cat's den, telling her mother that she's getting better.

The chapter ends with Dovepaw guiltily reminding herself that she was going to see Tigerheart that night.
