Flameheart

Flameheart is a fiery, ginger tabby tom with golden eyes and a taut muzzle.

Chapter 2

 * Flameheart is a BirchClan warrior. Silverstreak whispers his name as she stumbles upon him, bloody and wounded. Flameheart comments that Silverstreak is actually alive. Silverstreak scents FrozenClan and she snarls, ready to attack. Flameheart tells her don't, as that warrior brought him water from the creek. She sees the damp moss lying between the two cats, confused. Flameheart explains that since the FrozenClan warrior was stronger he brought him water from the creek. Silverstreak asks why the tom would do that since he was the enemy, and Flameheart reveals that they were both going to die because the tom's Clan, FrozenClan, left him to die, as when a patrol came to see if he could be saved Flameheart played dead. Since he knew BirchClan was beyond help was well, they felt no need to fight. He opens his eyes and continues, saying that when he got dehydrated during the night the tom brought him the water as he was stronger. Silverstreak stares at the two warriors and Flameheart rasps that it takes a special sort of honor, but the tom was dead by morning.


 * When Ravenwing and Frostfeather arrive, Ravenwing mews Flameheart's name and he looks at her without moving his head, smiles weakly, and coughs that BirchClan still lives, after mentioning the two she-cat's names. When Ravenwing moves forward, he stops her, saying that although she was a good medicine cat apprentice before she decided to become a warrior, she would not be able to save him. When Flameheart pleads that he wants to go peacefully, Ravenwing stammers that she will get some poppy seeds. Flameheart murmurs a thanks and Ravenwing disappears, then reappears with four poppy seeds. Flameheart laps the seeds up and he relaxes, eyes closing and the three she-cats touch their muzzles to him. At sunhigh, his breathing stops as he dies.
