Battle Of Anacondee by Morgan N. (detective books to read .txt) 📕

stretcher. They slept for awhile until dawn began to approach. The sun was bright and the air was crisp and clean. The sky was cloudless and grass had a soft layer of dew on it. DarkFlame looked outside and saw a rabbit prancing through the grass. DarkFlame stood up and walked to the broken window. She snatched a spear from her stash of weaponry. She threw the spear at the rabbit just hitting its head. The rabbit fell to the ground dead and DarkFlame went to gather her meal. When she picked up the rabbit a dart flew past her head just missing her. DarkFlame took out her knife and held it in her paw tightly. “who are you and what do you think your doing?”, DarkFlame said angrily. Then she let out a large growl. The creature was a fox. A fox no one had ever seen before. The fox didn’t say anything. Then another fox came out of the brush and said,” that is Alija and I am Zana. She cant speak. I speak for her.” DarkFlame was frozen at the look of the foxes. They were filthy and scruffy. Rapid looking. Then Alija stepped out of the bush. She let a few yips and Zana listened carefully. Alija would make yips and each yip meant something that Zana translated into speech. “ she said, greetings we come in peace.” DarkFlame stands motionless still. Alija yipped again. “don’t cause have a fight anymore, she says.” “we…we will try not to but…we must.”, DarkFlame struggled to speak to the foxes. Alija nodded as well as Zana. Alija let out some more yips. Zana nodded but didn’t speak any words. Alija then snarled. “ok! Ok!”, said Zana with a sigh. “fine ill tell them. Alija said that she is trying to put a stop to this battle by… attacking the person who wins and forcing them to call peace forever.”, she continued. DarkFlame narrowed her eyes and snarled under breath as she said,” that would make everything unfair, unbalanced, and much more things that will cause issues! If you even think about attacking the winner you will be punished. It wont be pretty either.” DarkFlame clutched her spear in her hand now. Alija backed up and eventually ran deep into the woods. Zana snapped her teeth once at DarkFlame and ran after Alija. DarkFlame yelled,” this ain’t over yet!” Then yips echoed over the distance. DarkFlame turned around and walked back inside. LunarStar was woken by DarkFlame’s yell and he was startled. DarkFlame said, “just two foxes that plan on attacking and forcing the winner of this battle to bring peace upon all forever.” LunarStar was dumbfounded when he said, “ interesting.” DarkFlame sighed. LunarStar sniffed the air. “storm.”, said LunarStar confidently. DarkFlame also sniffed the air saying, ”yep”. Within the next 20 minutes it was pouring down rain. “lets go to my den”, said LunarStar. DarkFlame nodded. They walked through the rain, side by side holding a weapon. The thunder clapped and crashed above there heads. When they finally reached his den, they were soaked. They shook off their bodies outside the door before running inside to warmth. They walked over to his wooden desk and discovered a note written in very small print. It read: the maple leaf whispered to the sunfilled cloud as the shadows appeared. They were both dumbfounded. “ what does this mean?”, asked DarkFlame. “I have no idea”, said LunarStar. Then SunCloud burst open the door and walked inside to where DarkFlame and LunarStar stood. “it means nothing of your business”, said SunCloud as she snatched the note away. “give me it now, SunCloud”, said LunarStar trying to release SunCloud’s grip on the note. “be gone!”, said SunCloud. LunarStar collapsed to the floor passed out. SunCloud quickly vanished leaving one of her notes where she was standing. It read: nothing of your business remains on this note. If you mention this note or anything that happened this day, you will certainly pay much worse then LunarStar did. - SunCloud
That only means one thing. SunCloud has a secret that involves this battle. A bad secret that could risk the chance of Shadow Clan winning and increasing the chances of Moon Clan.

Chapter 4

A canary perched on a small branch outside of LunarStar’s den. It began to sing a beautiful song. DarkFlame’s ears flicked as the song awoke her. She lifted up her head. She looked around the motionless room, only seeing her and LunarStar on the bed. The storm clouds had finally cleared out from the afternoon and now that night had fell, the sky is filled with stars and it’s a dark blue. DarkFlame would usually go out to the mountains and hunt for goats, but LunarStar had his paw wrapped around DarkFlame so that she was protected from the window if the glass shattered from the storm. LunarStar opened his eyes slightly. DarkFlame shrugged and laid back down and cuddled up in a ball next to LunarStar. LunarStar then smiled and closed his eyes again. They laid there for awhile until a knock struck the door. “open up wolves!”, the voice said. DarkFlame jumped up and ran to the door. She loaded an arrow and opened the door. “woah!”, said Zana who was the animal at the door. “watch it! A fox comes to say sorry and he nearly gets shot!” DarkFlame lowered the bow but was ready to shoot at any moment. “what do you want?”, said DarkFlame. “I am telling you that we are sorry. We thought over about the…plan that we were gonna do.”, said Zana in a sincere tone. “we?”, said DarkFlame suspiciously. “she is back in the woods.”, said Zana. “ we talked to Melee and she explained that the plan was a bad idea.” DarkFlame asked,” Melee? Who is that?” “she is a bear that lives in the way back of the woods.”, answered Zana. Zana then nodded his head and walked back into the woods. DarkFlame closed the door and put her arrow down. She went back and cuddled up next to LunarStar again. . A couple hours later the sun started to rise up over the horizon. LunarStar tried not to awake DarkFlame as he stood up to look outside. When he looked outside he noticed something different. The canary was frozen in place on his branch. The butterfly was frozen on the flower. LunarStar sighed and sniffed the air. Then he shouted out to DarkFlame,” your mom is here!” DarkFlame jumped up on her feet and said,” how do you know?” “there is ice and frost everywhere”, said LunarStar. DarkFlame looked outside and sniffed the air. “she isn’t here. She always sends me a note before arrival. This is just winter’s beginning.”, said DarkFlame. “no. then how did the bird and butterfly get frozen?”, said LunarStar protesting. “it’s just the Great Freeze. It happens every year in the beginning of winter.”, said DarkFlame. LunarStar finally agreed. The Great Freeze is when everything freezes outside when a big wind blows over it. Living animals like foxes, wolves, or bears aren’t effected. Except for one year. Nearly a century ago, the Great Freeze nearly had blown out half the animal population. It took months for the ice to melt. Worst year ever in Anacondee history. Just then it started to snow. The snowflakes were so intricate and exquisite. After a minute or two it was like a blizzard. DarkFlame went inside and rolled up in ball on the floor. LunarStar stayed and watched the snow begin to pile up in the grass. LunarStar squinted his eyes as if he saw something in the snow. He did see something. That something was a baby wolf pup with gray fur and bright blue eyes. LunarStar padded to the pup and picked it up in his mouth by the fur on the back of its neck. He trotted back into the den and closed the door gently trying not to startle the pup. DarkFlame lifted up her head and looked at the pup. The pup shivered as the snow on its back started to melt. LunarStar picked up a blanket and threw it over the pup’s back. The pup relaxed a bit. “what is your name?”, asked LunarStar. “Magger.”, hesitated the pup, “and you?” “LunarStar and this is DarkFlame.”, answered LunarStar. DarkFlame nodded her head. The pup’s stomach rumbled. LunarStar picked up a pouch and took a small rabbit out of it. He put the pouch back and skinned the rabbit. He took out his knife and sliced the rabbit into 12 equal slices. He handed 4 to DarkFlame and 4 to Magger. He kept the last 4 for himself. They all ate in silence. “I wish my dad was normal again”, said the pup. “what’s wrong with him? I mean like how is he not normal?”, asked DarkFlame curiously. “My father is Soot. The wolf with rabies that is deep in the woods. I talked to Melee and she told me to runaway and find a den of a nearby wolf. So I found this den and here I am.”, explained Magger. DarkFlame nodded. LunarStar glanced out the window at the snow covered grass. He saw another wolf walking outside. This time he didn’t go outside to get it. It was Soot, looking for his pup. Foam dripped from Soot’s mouth. “Magger your father is here”, said LunarStar. Magger shook his head and said,” I don’t care. I’m not going with him. I am staying here.” “suite yourself”, said LunarStar. Soot howled outside. He screamed repeatedly “Magger I am coming! Come out now”. “ are you sure? He is freaking out outside.”, said LunarStar. “oh fine. Ill go tell him I am not going and he will leave.”, said Magger. “hopefully”, said LunarStar. “people like your father are pretty hard to convince, you know.” “ya, ya”, confidently said Magger. Magger then pushed door and saw his father laying in the soft snow. “dad”, said Magger hesitating. Soot looked up at his pup and just stared. He was breathing heavily, you could tell by” looking front of him at the frosty air coming from where his mouth is. “i am not going with-”, said Magger pausing by hearing the door slam shut behind him. “i am not going with you, dad. I talked to someone and they told me to leave you and go on my own in one of the clans.” Soot got up on his feet and said in a cracked voice,” very well then. Ill will never forget you my son. Whoever told you this will regret it. If i get rid of my problems please come back. I need a wolf like you to care for me when i get older. Please promise me one thing, Magger.” “what?”, said Magger suspiciously. “if you ever see StarPaw again promise me you'll tell her i love her.”, said Soot sincerely. “StarPaw?”, said Magger. “your...your mom.”, said Soot quietly. Magger nodded and thought for a second. “Fire clan”, said Magger out of no where. “she is a warrior of Fire clan i think.” Magger quickly ran for door and opened it swiftly. He slammed it shut
