| Swiftstream was waiting for her mate in their nest. | |

| Eventually Riverflight dragged Puddlepaw into his nest in the apprentice’s den to rest, the tom shuddering by the time his father did so. The deputy padded back into the warrior’s den with a sigh. | |

| Rainstorm padded away from the two and slipped back out of camp. | |

| “Yes.” Riverflight mewed simply, not even giving Rainstorm a cold glance as he checked on his disobedient son. | |

| Riverflight nodded, trying to keep his own emotions about what was said in check. Puddlepaw was still lying motionless beneath the warriors, and the deputy knew that the young apprentice would have to be punished for attacking his mentor. | |

| Rainstorm clenched his jaw, not turning to look at his friend. “He didn’t appreciate me saying I didn’t regret trying to stop Riverflight from going back to fetch him and Swiftstream six moons ago,” he said, his voice cold. | |

| “Fight me!” Yowled Puddlepaw furiously, skidding a bit on the frozen earth beneath his paws after missing his mentor, which inflamed the young tom even more. As the young tom pounced again, claws outstretched, he was suddenly stopped midair by a paw to the face. The apprentice crumpled, startled by its sudden appearance in his path.
Glaciertail stood beside Rainstorm, dipping his head to his friend as Riverflight charged over. “What in Starclan’s name happened?” | |

| Despite being startled, Rainstorm easily dodged his apprentice’s attack. Puddlepaw had only just started learning, after all. He didn’t fight back though, not being angry enough to have taken leave of that much reason. | |

| When Puddlepaw heard Rainstorm say that he did not regret what he had done, the tom had had enough. With an angry yowl he bowled into his mentor, claws unsheathed.
Riverflight’s ears perked from inside the warrior’s den at the sound of a yowl, the tom quickly untangling himself from Swiftstream to see what the commotion was.
Spottedpelt had been dozing inside the nursery with Shadowleaf and her kits, and groggily blinked awake to realize there was some sort of fight going on outside. She quickly got between the nursery entrance and the kits and their mother, ready to protect the other cats if the need arose. | |

| Rainstorm bristled furiously, deep blue eyes glaring down at his nephew. “Of course I care!” He spat. “But did it ever occur to you that I have legitimate reasons? Or were you just too busy feeling slighted? I’m not going to apologize for something I don’t regret!” | |

| “We’re all still your kin!” Puddlepaw replied with a sharp hiss, stepping closer to his mentor. “You never made an effort to heal the wounds you caused my father. He is your brother. You never once told me that you were sorry for being wrong about getting me and my mother back. I am your kin. And like it or not those kits in the nursery are yours.” his blue-green eyes blazed with fury now as he challenged his mentor. Finally, the tom snarled “Does any of that matter to you, or are you too busy looking out for yourself to care!?” | |

| Rainstorm stared silently at Puddlepaw for several moments, his body tense. “Riverflight doesn’t want to spend time with me. You weren’t my apprentice at the time, you weren’t even born yet, and I felt it was too dangerous to go back; which it was, it was pure luck your parents and Spottedpelt made it out with. Shadowleaf isn’t my mate, and I never wanted kits. I never had a father either so I wouldn’t know what to do even if I had.” | |

| “You have a brother you don’t love, an apprentice you wanted to leave behind, a mate you don’t spend time with And kits you don’t acknowledge.” Puddlepaw challenged, the tom clearly irritated by one too many silent hunting patrols besides his mentor. “Why do you push them all away?” | |

| Finally, Puddlepaw dropped his bird on the pile, turned to his mentor, and mewed out “I don’t understand you, Rainstorm.” | |

| Rainstorm padded over to the fresh-kill pile and dropped his prey on it before looking around. | |

| Puddlepaw began to seriously consider actually talking to Rainstorm once his mouth was no longer burdened with the fat bird. There was a lot he needed to know. | |

| Puddlepaw took his own catch in his jaws, able to walk with his head held high in pride after catching the blackbird in such a skillful way. | |

| He nodded his head in thanks and took his rabbit from the apprentice. | |

| The tom nodded, digging up his bird and even taking the time to unearth the rabbit for Rainstorm. | |

| Puddlepaw dipped his head as his mentor approached him, but didn’t even look up at the tom, much less speak to him. | |
