Chapter 1-
Brambleclaw padded out of the warrior's den. The sand felt rough on his soft paws. He hissed and lashed out at the sand, "Take that you stupid sand!" Squirrelflight padded up to him, her face totally confused. "Brambleclaw!" she meowed, "What in the name of Starclan are you doing?" Brambleclaw looked up, surprised that she didn't know. He puffed out his chest and meowed, "The sand hurt me!" Squirrelflight rolled her eyes, "You know, for a deputy, you're a wimp."
Brambleclaw's eyes flashed, "No I'm not!"
"Yes you are."
"No I'm not."
"Yes you are! That's that!"
Brambleclaw scowled and lifted his chin in a very smug way, "Fine then! I'm going to go hunting, and you're not allowed to come!"
Squirrelflight smiled a cheeky smile, "Good, who would want to hunt with a badger-brain like you?" With that, she rose to her paws and strode away, being as annoying as she possibly could.

Brambleclaw stared after her and he blew out a short breath, "She-cats," he muttered. Then he padded towards the camp entrance without knowing what lie ahead. Waiting, and biding his time....

Chapter Two....

Brambleclaw made his way towards the Great Oak. He planned to hunt down some squirrels looking for nuts. Brambleclaw was lost in his thoughts of hunting squirrels that he didn't hear the sound behind him. By the time he pulled his head out of the clouds enough to notice the sound, it was to late. The badger loomed behind him, it's little beady eyes shimmering. Brambleclaw shrieked in terror and tried to take off at a run, but the badger had pinned his tail down under one of it's massive paws. Brambleclaw knew this would be his fate, killed by a badger. He was right. The badger kept its paw on Brambleclaw's tail as it pulled him backwards. Once Brambleclaw was only a mouse-length away from the badger it bit down on to his neck. The trembling in Brambleclaw's body stopped and he lay on his side, dead. The badger smiled sasifactorilly, then it plodded forward, avoiding stepping on the smelly clan cat.

Chapter 3

Night was falling on Thunderclan, and Brambleclaw still hadn't returned. Squirrelflight paced uneasily, she knew they had argued before and he had left to blow of some steam, but he had never been gone this long! Something was wrong, she knew it. Squirrelflight padded towards the entrance to the camp. She was blocked by Leafpool. "Move dear sister," she purred. Leafpool shook her head obstinantly. "No! I can't let you face whatever it is alone!" she meowed. Squirrelflight sighed, her sister could feel her own unease. "Alright, you may come with me."

The two sisters padded in to the forest side-by-side. Squirrelflight's pelt prickled with unease as the feeling of dread grew closer. Leafpool could feel her sister's fear and pressed her pelt closer to Squirrelflight's. "It's alright," she purred comfortingly, "everything will be alright."

Unfortunatly, things were not alright and in a matter of minutes Squirrelflight's fear had been confirmed. "Oh Starclan! Why?!" she wailed over and over again, "Why?! Why? why?" until her wails were only shuddering gasp that she managed to choke out through her tears. Leafpool pressed against her pelt until she could feel Squirrelflight's heart pounding against her own chest. "It's alright, shhh, it's alright," she crooned over and over again. Squirrelflight stared at Brambleclaw's body unable to take it in. It made no sense, why would Starclan rob Thunderclan of it's deputy? Of the cat who was chosen to make the Great Journey? It all made no sense.

Together Squirrelflight and Leafpool carried Brambleclaw's body back to camp. Cats started to emerge out of every nook and cranny. The site before their eyes made them all feel a saddness in their hearts. Squirrelflight and Leafpool sat right beside Brambleclaw's body, sharing each others grief.

Firestar pushed his way through the crowd of cats and saw his deputy's body lying on the ground. Firestar's face showed no emotion, but his eyes betrayed what he was feeling...grief. He wouldn't let the tears fall until he was in his den, with nocat but Sandstorm beside him. Firestar lifted his head and yowled, "I will name a new deputy before the moon has risen!" then he turned around and padded back to his den, leaving his daughters to their grief.

Chapter 4

Squirrelflight and Leafpool looked up from their half asleep, half crying state. What had woken them? Then the sound came again, it was their father calling the clan to meeting. "The time has come for me to name a new deputy! My decision is for Graystripe to be the new deputy of ThunderClan!" Yowls of agreement and compliance rang against the rock walls of the cliff. Graystripe padded up to Firestar and touched noses with his old friend. "Thank you," the gray tom purred. Firestar waved away his thanks with his tail, "You deserve it,"he simply mewed. The two friends turned to face the clan. "I will do my best to serve Thunderclan in any way I can!" he yowled, even as yowls of happiness and joy sprang up from every nook and cranny. Squirrelflight tried to be happy for Graystripe. She knew that he would be a wonderful deputy, but she still couldn't help but remember when that had been Brambleclaw. Suddenly, a tail stroke her spine and she turned around to say something to her sister, but discovered that it was Ashfur. "Hello," he purred.
Hello Ashfur," Squirrelflight purred, glad to be with a friend at this time. She looked into his eyes and saw that they were concerened, most likely for her. "Oh, Ashfur! I just can't believe he's gone!" she cried. Ashfur laid his chin on her head and gently licked her ears. "I know, I know, none of us can believe it either. If you need anything, I'm her for you," he cajoled her quietly. "Thank you Ashfur," she smiled, through her tears, "I really appreciate it."

As I said before, this is really good, but shouldn't it be in POT re-writes?

[Flowerclaw]

Good fan fic, but try not to use the phrases too many times! ^^.

[rainmask]

//What is POT?

EDIT: Nevermind, I figured it out.! xD Yes, I think it should now that you mention it.

How do I move it over though?

[Mossflower (freakishly busy)]

POT is Power of Three.

Yay for Bramble bashers! :3 I killed off Bramble in a story once. Keep going, I love a good AshxSquirrel.

[Splashwave]

AHH!!! You killed Brambley! *Stares In Horror* Other than that, I like it.
