:[[Brambleclaw]] is walking with [[Dustpelt]] and [[Thornclaw]] behind him. He tries to convince himself that it doesn't bother him that [[Squirrelflight]] is not with them. He knows that feeding the Clan and getting to know the territory is more important than fretting over Squirrelflight's anger at him. He reflects that Squirrelflight wasn't mad about his connection with [[Tawnypelt]], so why should she be angry over his friendship with his half-brother, [[Hawkfrost]]? Dustpelt, Thornclaw, and Brambleclaw continue to venture until they reach a [[Twoleg]] path, realizing that this is the farthest they've traveled from camp. Brambleclaw mutters, saying he's not sure if he likes this, commenting that it looks too much like a [[Thunderpath]]. Thornclaw replies that he doesn't think it could be, as there is no scent of Twolegs or monsters. Brambleclaw checks for himself, and realizes that Thornclaw is right. Brambleclaw guesses that it's an old Thunderpath, and maybe Twolegs let grass grow over it. Thornclaw wonders why they would do that, and Dustpelt replies because they're mouse-brains. He adds on that all Twolegs are mouse-brains. Brambleclaw continues to ponder over the existence of Twolegs in that area, and shakes it off, knowing that as long as there were none now, it wasn't important. After Dustpelt kills a vole, the cats are still hesitant to cross the path, the memories from the Twolegs destroying their former home too fresh in their mind. Dustpelt hisses, and Brambleclaw sees a Twoleg nest. Thornclaw asks what he wants to do. Brambleclaw thinks that he wants to turn back and run, but because he feels that his Clan needs to know everything about the new territory, he decides to take a look.

Chapter Summary

Brambleclaw's PoV

Brambleclaw is walking with Dustpelt and Thornclaw behind him. He tries to convince himself that it doesn't bother him that Squirrelflight is not with them. He knows that feeding the Clan and getting to know the territory is more important than fretting over Squirrelflight's anger at him. He reflects that Squirrelflight wasn't mad about his connection with Tawnypelt, so why should she be angry over his friendship with his half-brother, Hawkfrost? Dustpelt, Thornclaw, and Brambleclaw continue to venture until they reach a Twoleg path, realizing that this is the farthest they've traveled from camp. Brambleclaw mutters, saying he's not sure if he likes this, commenting that it looks too much like a Thunderpath. Thornclaw replies that he doesn't think it could be, as there is no scent of Twolegs or monsters. Brambleclaw checks for himself, and realizes that Thornclaw is right. Brambleclaw guesses that it's an old Thunderpath, and maybe Twolegs let grass grow over it. Thornclaw wonders why they would do that, and Dustpelt replies because they're mouse-brains. He adds on that all Twolegs are mouse-brains. Brambleclaw continues to ponder over the existence of Twolegs in that area, and shakes it off, knowing that as long as there were none now, it wasn't important. After Dustpelt kills a vole, the cats are still hesitant to cross the path, the memories from the Twolegs destroying their former home too fresh in their mind. Dustpelt hisses, and Brambleclaw sees a Twoleg nest. Thornclaw asks what he wants to do. Brambleclaw thinks that he wants to turn back and run, but because he feels that his Clan needs to know everything about the new territory, he decides to take a look.
The exterior is very different from nests in Twolegplace, back in the old forest. The entire den is made of old, broken wood, and there are square holes in the wall that are empty. The inside is dark and quiet, full of shadows and confusing scents. Brambleclaw wants to leave, but he recalls Squirrelflight's possible words if she had seen him at this very moment: You never went inside! Are you a mouse or what? Brambleclaw orders his companions to stay where they are, but they do not obey him, and Brambleclaw reflects that they shouldn't, especially how he isn't deputy. In the Twoleg den, there are no signs of any Twolegs and the air is rich with prey scent. Brambleclaw hears Thornclaw's paws on wood, and he turns around to see him with a mouse in his jaws. Dustpelt comments that this could be a useful place, provided the Twolegs do not return. Brambleclaw agrees silently, but he doesn't like the desolate feeling of the den, wondering why the Twolegs left it. Thornclaw twitches his tail towards a rising block of wood, asking if they want to go up there. Dustpelt refuses, saying that it doesn't look safe. Brambleclaw tells them that he'll take a quick look. He climbs up the wood, and sees a pigeon that briefly startles him. He scours the place, concluding that it is empty. He jumps back down to see Dustpelt with a mouse, and Thornclaw listening intently to what mind have been an animal in the wall. Brambleclaw states that they don't have time to hunt, and they depart the den.
Back at camp, Brambleclaw reports to Firestar what he and the others had found. Firestar asks if there were any signs of Twolegs, and Brambleclaw tells him that there weren't. He suggests that it is a good place for prey, and it might be useful in the future. Sandstorm adds that they could use it for shelter in the bad weather, or shelter if another fire ambushed the forest. Firestar praises the patrol, and Brambleclaw decides to go out again to hunt. Although it is very difficult, he asks Squirrelflight to come with him. Squirrelflight is silent for a while to the point in which Brambleclaw thinks she might agree, but she rises to her paws and says that she had promised to go with Ashfur and Spiderleg
