He stopped in front of the hollow, where the sand was mixed with ash so it looked like a strange, haunted hole in the earth. He did not smile and he did not frown. He made a terrible mistake. Trusting that cat was a horrible decision. He lifted his head. It's all my fault that ThunderClan is gone, all my fault that RiverClan is gone. Longtail looked down, again, into the burnt camp. He closed his eyes, and listened. Voices. He turned and saw the little orange cat with white markings, Embersnake, and Firetail. And trailing behind was... He squinted. He couldn't tell. Sandstorm, perhaps. He wanted to run up to Firetail. Half of him wanted to apologize, and say sorry for the horrible fate ahead of him. The other half of Longtail wanted to leap on his apprentice and destroy him, before any more damage could be done. But he couldn't do that. He looked over at Embersnake, who was talking to Firetail. "Firetail, the camp is burnt. The Clan would have gone to get help from another Clan." Firetail looked like he wanted to snarl at her, but he held back. "You're ... right. Let's head back to the others." Firetail sighed. Longtail flicked his ear. Embersnake would be the one, not Birdflower? Unexpected. Although, he did know who Birdflower loved. It wasn't Firetail. He turned, leaping away into the dark sky. Embersnake turned. "Did you hear something, Firetail?"
