Spottedpetal was sad truth be told she had never gotten over the death of her mate and when she learned about the dog that had attacked her daughter she was so sure that it was the same dog that had killed her mate. Her daughter had lived but all the stuff that had happene had made her go crazy and she had changed her daughters name to Shatteredpaw. After her daughters name change her other kits rejectied her, rejection from Flowerdust didn't really hurt, but her soon looked so much like his father that it was like having her heart ripped out. Blinded by her own greif she began to run through Shadowclan territory not really paying attention to where she was going. Suddenly she felt an explosion of pain and her world faded away to darkness.
Shatteredpaw had been walking around Shadowclan territory trying to collect herbs before the frost killed them when she thought she heard a yowl splite the air. She looked around for her mentor before remembering that they had splite up to look for herbs. Taking a deep breath she picked up the herbs that she had gathered before taking off in the direction she had heard the yowl and was surprised when the thunder path came into view and she slid to a halt at the edge of the thunder path and she looked around before her eyes came to rest on a limp shape on the thunder path. Her breath caught in her throat when she realized who it was and she rushed forwards until she reached her mother only to have her heart sink when she realized that her mother was already dead. She was about to drag her mother off the thunder path when the bushes behind her rustled and she spun around bristling. "Who's there?" she called out her eyes scanning the bushes that lined the thunder path.

Oaktooth was finished gathering herbs and when Shatteredpaw didn't meet up with him, he went looking for her. The large tabby tom padded quickly through the pine forest, hot on the trail of his apprentice.
"Shatteredpaw! There you are!" He said, releasing a puff of worried air. He noticed a certain look on his apprentice's face. A mix of horror and sadness, maybe? "Shatteredpaw what-" Then he noticed her. Spottedpetal.
"Shatteredpaw, do you know what happened?" His voice was thick with sorrow. Losing cats was always bad for the clan. He examined her, the warmth already draining from her body. "She smells like monster. It was a quick death, she didn't suffer." He muttered, though he was probably only making things worse.
"Shatteredpaw, please go get Thicketstar, or Snowclaw or anybody." He said quickly. He knew what she must be going through must be terrible. "Try to tell Mudwater and Flowerdust. Break it to them slowly." He spoke, ushering her away. He would try to keep her as busy as possible. It was the best way to keep her from mourning too soon. He would need his apprentice.
Oaktooth got like this, serious and ordering everyone around when the time required it.

Shatteredpaw nodded numbly before turning and racing back through the camp not even stopping when she came to camp she raced inside slipping into the warriors den trying to catch her breathing and saw her siblings in the middle of a conversation. "Mudwater, Flowerdust please meet me it Thistlestars den," she meowed not giving them a chance to ask her what was going on before racing out of the warriors den and slid to a halt in front of Thistlestar's den. "Thistlestar, it's me Shatteredpaw can I talk to you? Mudwater and Flowerdust will be joining us," she meowed waiting for her leader to invite her into his den so she could give him the news of her mothers death at the same time as she broke the news to her littermates.

Thicketstar mewed "Shatteredpaw if its needed then I will allow it. This better be important." He narrowed his amber eyes in suspicion when he scented fear and dismay on the young she cat. Something terrible had happened but, what was it?

Mudwater dropped his words that he was sharing with Flowerdust as soon as Shatteredpaw appeared. He worried about his sister constantly. Even when she was with Oaktooth, she maybe be safe with him but he still didn't trust him with his little sister.
"Shatteredpaw, what is it?" But she continued walking, straight to Thicketstar's den. Something was defenitley wrong. He jumped up quickly, wondering what she could possibly need. He motioned for Flowerdust to follow him.

Thicketstar waited. He wanted to see Snowclaw soon. He was beginning to lose patience. He said "Hello Mudwater." So the Medicine Cat apprentice and her sibling were in here. Family loss?

"I have some terrible news, Spottedpetal is dead, she was found on the monster path," Shatteredpaw meowed almost breathless. Even after knowing her mother was dead saying it out loud was like clawing her chest open. For a moment she couldn't say anything else, then she mentally shook herself. "Oaktooth, should be bringing her back to camp," she meowed her voice so quiet that she had to clear her throat and repeat herself.

Thickestar didn't flinch nor show any expression. He said slightly coldly "I am sorry for your loss. She was a good warrior and she will be buried at sunset." Oaktooth would be back soon. That is good. He took the words and absorbed them. A leader shouldn't show too much emotion or his followers would think he was weak. He had to be supportive but, strong. He had several mice that he just caught. He tossed one to each of the cats in front of him and said ''Eat. If your going to mourn do so on a full stomach. We lost enough cats to depression today."

Shatteredpaw listened to her leader and nodded taking a bite of the mouse her leader have gave her and she chewed slowly swallowing it not commenting on the taste like she would usually do.
