Raccoonwhisker appeared perplexed. "A raid? When did it happen? Why did Thunderclan raid Riverclan? Or was it the other way around? Honestly, I couldn't care less," he muttered. "I apologize, but Shadowclan does not meddle in other clan's affairs as Riverclan does, so most of us had no idea about this raid," he added with confidence. Nonetheless, a nagging doubt remained at the back of his mind. What if everyone else knew about it except him? Was he the only one kept in the dark? Am I just being foolish, or is there something they are not telling me? He wondered silently.

His tail began to twitch again, a clear sign that he was feeling embarrassed or queasy. "Well, I have to give you some credit. You supposedly fought Bumblestar and lived to tell the tale... But it's evident that you didn't win," Raccoonwhisker remarked. Perhaps he shouldn't have mentioned the last part. Or maybe Jayfrost was lying all along. He might have never fought Bumblestar, and the whole raid was just a fabrication. Raccoonwhisker knew many cats who would easily spout lies like this. Maybe Jayfrost was one of them.

But, why would Jayfrost lie like this? If he was even lying in the first place. To cover up Riverclan's intentions? Or just because he's embarrassed of a fight he just lost? Maybe he made some whole story to sound heroic or brave or something. Jayfrost sure seemed like the type of person to do that. At least, at first impression. Raccoonwhisker couldn't believe anything Jayfrost was saying. But, The Riverclanner did seem awfully trustworthy.
