“Birchfall lapped at his wound "You're not very sympathetic for a medicine cat" "I'm here to HEAL you. If you want sympathy, go to the nursery" Jaypaw mewed”

“Jaypaw narrowed his eyes. "I'm not as blind as you think.”

“You're a medicine cat. I understand what that means now. StarClan go with you, Leafpool. I'll never forget you.”

“I'm not going to get myself hurt." I'm too important to let that happen.~Jaypaw”

“Fox dung! I'm a loyal ShadowClan cat. If I'm ever made deputy or leader it will be because I have earned it myself - and my Clanmates and StarClan wish it. You're twisting the warrior code to get what you want, just like you did when you were alive.”

“Oh yes. Blood is everything. But the only blood I'm interested in flows from my enemies. Look around you! These cats are bathed in blood. It soaks their fur and laps at their paws. This is the way we survive! We are BloodClan!”

“In the deserted forest, Firestar crouched beside Spottedleaf's trembling body. Blood welled at her neck, soaking Firestar's cheek as he pressed against her. "Spottedleaf! Please don't go". Dovewing heard a sob in his mew. "You promised you'd be there to welcome me".Spottedleaf gave a tiny shake of her head. "That was never going to happen my love. I cannot journey with you anymore. I'm so sorry".Firestar pawed at her. "No! I still need you!""Let her go" A she-cat shimmered into view, her gray fur long and matted."Yellowfang?" Firestar looked at her, his green eyes pleading. "Don't let her disappear. Please.""This was her destiny." Yellowfang touched her muzzle to Firestar's head. "Let her follow it.""But she said she'd wait for me in StarClan!" Firestar's mew caught in his throat.Spottedleaf looked up at him and opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something. A small gasp escaped her; then she fell limp. Her fur started to blur, leaving a faint outline and then nothing but bloodstained grass. Firestar's head drooped.”
