Crowfeather's Trial/Chapter 16

==Chapter description==
:Crowfeather heads to the border with ThunderClan, intent on speaking with Leafpool about the stoats. While waiting at the border stream, Berrynose and Thornclaw arrive, much to Crowfeather's dismay. He asks to speak to Leafpool about private matters, though Berrynose coyly remarks that the WindClan warrior has had enough private business with Leafpool already. Doing his best to not snap, Crowfeather remains cordial, insisting it's nothing like that. The ThunderClan warriors eventually agree to fetch Leafpool, though they instead bring Jayfeather since Leafpool was busy. Jayfeather isn't too thrilled on being summoned to speak with Crowfeather, but the WindClan warrior explains how his Clan needs help with the stoats. Angered, Jayfeather asks why Onestar insisted that WindClan would handle the stoats on their own before realizing that Crowfeather has arrived without his leader's permission. Crowfeather brings up Kestrelflight's dream and how he worries the stoats might be a grave threat to all the Clans like the Great Battle. His son agrees to speak to Bramblestar about it, though notes that WindClan should sort itself out if they want ThunderClan's help. As Jayfeather leaves, Crowfeather wonders how Jayfeather's life would've differed if Crowfeather had raised him instead of Bramblestar, and he begins to speculate the same about Breezepelt.
:Onestar angrily confronts Crowfeather when he arrives back at camp. Crowfeather explains how he spoke with Jayfeather to pass a message to Bramblestar about the stoats, much to Onestar's ire. He accuses Crowfeather of being disloyal, though Crowfeather argues that it is because he is loyal that he knows that WindClan needs ThunderClan's help. While Onestar leaves to discuss how to respond to Bramblestar, he promises Crowfeather that he'll deal with him later. Later, Crowfeather spots Breezepelt spending time with Heathertail. After Heathertail leaves, Crowfeather asks about Breezepelt's injuries, gently teasing that he doesn't have to downplay his injuries since Heathertail is gone. To Crowfeather's surprise, Breezepelt returns his father's teasing and admits how he's worried about Heathertail. Despite grieving for Nightcloud, Crowfeather is relieved to feel closer with his son.
