A/N- I couldn't think of a good title. Dawn + Itch nothing that sounds good, ha. I don't really like this chapter; I think I'm losing my ability to write well.

Time passed slowly. The warm, muggy days of summer turned into the windy days of fall. Fall turned into the harsh cold of winter. Winter gave way to a sunny spring, which is where we pick up with our beloved Clan.

Firestar and his mate Sandstorm awoke one day to find the camp under attack.

Not by dogs, a rival clan, or disease, but by something much, much worse.

"LEAFPOOL, HOW DARE YOU!" a very angry bright ginger she-cat yowled, glaring daggers at Leafpaw. "I like him! He's MINE! And you scratched him?!"

Leafpaw's face was like stone as she replied, "I did. And he enjoyed it very much."

This only made the ginger cat angrier. "SHUT UP! I don't care how it was, it should never have happened at all! You're only an apprentice, for crying out loud!"

"Squirrelpaw, so are you!" Leafpaw meowed loudly. "He came to me. I didn't ask for it, but I didn't mind-"

"You mouse-brain!" Squirrelpaw hissed, ears flattening. "You'll pay for that!"

She started to charge her sister, but Firestar thundered between them.

"ENOUGH!" he roared, stopping Squirrelpaw dead in her tracks. "Leafpaw, you are forbidden to leave my den for a moon. Squirrelpaw, you are forbidden to leave Cinderpelt's sight for the same time. I will not have my daughters fighting each other in the middle of camp!"

Squirrelpaw looked the ground and scuffed it with one paw while Leafpaw mumbled a quiet 'sorry…'

"Once you receive your warrior names, you're free to itch whoever you want," Firestar continued.

Leafpaw winked at Brambleclaw, who suddenly developed a very happy look on his face.

"But until then, it is not allowed. Now that that's over, I've got to go back to my den. There's an…issue…Sandstorm's been wanting me to help with."

The Clan grimaced. Sandstorm was the loudest she-cat in the camp. Bramble claw meowed, "Hey, who wants to be anywhere but the camp?"

Every cat but the unfortunate Squirrelpaw and Leafpaw chose his proposition.

"Leafpaw, your punishment starts tomorrow. I'll be needing my den today," Firestar meowed as he disappeared into his den.

"Thank StarClan," Leafpaw purred. "I wouldn't want to have to watch that…"
