"What?!" Joey said in disbelief, "You can't be!" He backed off a few steps trying to remain calm. "I was her mate!"

"WHAT?" Icestorm yowled & unsheated his claws. Dawnstream unsheathed her claws too.
"You've got 3 heartbeats to explain yourself!"

Joey backed away from the raging cats, knowing he could not take on all three of them. "It was moons ago! I had no idea of anyone else. She told me we could only meet secretly." Joey glared at them. "I don't want to fight you! Tell me, where is she?"

"Wait, this is where we left her..." Dawnstream trailed off. Her eyes searching the clearing with horror.
[There's three cats. You missed Steelheart.]

"Left her?" Joey demanded "LEFT HER?! You don't mean she's...?"

"Dead, yes you mousebrain. What clan are you from?" Dawnstream spat.

Joey glared at her after the remark. "I'm not from any clan, I live alone." Devastated, he felt his legs shaking beneath him. "How did this happen?"

Dawnstream was about to answer him but Icestorm cut her off.
"How could you be her mate?" He thundered.

"I could ask you the same." Joey smirked, "I don't see how such a beautiful cat such as Featherwhisker could pick you as a mate."

Dawnstream's hackles raised. "Say anything like that again & you will die."

"I didn't mean that." Joey apologized. "I haven't seen her in so long. I just didn't expect this." He trailed off, looking down at the ground. "She never spoke of me, did she? She always said that her clan would never approve."

[Yes, but Steelheart is remaining calm, relative, of course, to two other furious cats beside him, which could be varying anywhere from half-attentiveness to pissed off, and anywhere inbetween... which is all calm relative to the Dawnstream and Icestorm. ^^]
"Huh..." he mused, almost to himself. "That could explain it. Maybe the reason she was out of the camp with her kits was to see Joey... and maybe this also explains why..... why none of them look like Icestorm?"

"How could you say that?" Icestorm yowled at Steelheart. "Featherwhisker loved me!" Dawnstream moved between them. As upset as he was, it wouldn't surprise her if her brother attacked the Elite Warrior.
[This is what that story was gonna be about... I'll still write it at some point probably.]

"I'm not saying it's good or it's right.... just that it makes sense," Steelheart said, remaining perfectly calm. Hence the name Steelheart: an iron will, a cold sense of calm under pressure, and a great sense of kindness.

"What he's saying is smart, Icestorm. Calm down." Dawnstream said softly to her brother. She looked at the loner.
"You are coming back with us, by force if necessary. You are a loner on our territory, you are now a prisoner of MistClan, at least until we sort this out."
