Everyone thought Scourge was a bad guy. In reality, he was just a product of his environment. What would you do if a strange cat attacked you? What would you do in a constant fight for your life? BloodClan wasn't all that bad. All of the Clans were greedy. But history is written by the victor, so everyone thinks Scourge is awful. I know that's wrong. He proved that wrong himself by talking to me, by letting me in.
After leaving WindClan, I found out where BloodClan was. Naturally, I wanted a place to stay without becoming a kittypet. BloodClan seemed like a good option- if I could manage to stay on Scourge's good side. That was no hard task. He and I were like two peas in a pod nowadays. I didn't get why everyone hated him so much. He could be cruel, but if you did what was asked of you, you would be fine. He was just like any other ruler.
At first he didn't like me, but I convinced him to stop hating me. I let him know that I understood why he didn't like me. I was an outsider, and the last time he trusted an outsider he was almost killed. It took some effort to get him to stop hating me for that, but it was worth it. I learned about his true feelings and helped him grow past being a scared kit. I helped him realize that he didn't need to hate everyone. I let him know that he could just be a ruler now. If he got really nice but kept up the punishments, no one would rebel.
He followed my plan. Slowly but steadily we grew closer and closer, until he revealed to the Clan that I was his mate. Of course, that was a bit upsetting at first. I hadn't agreed to that. But he let me know that he just wanted a big ceremony, and that we got. Everybody congratulated me and him, even giving us gifts. I rejected them whenever he wasn't looking, but it was still lovely. We made perfect mates. I loved him with all of my being and I was the only cat he trusted. Being the mate of Scourge had its advantages, too. I never went hungry and my kits were the strongest ones around. Scourge wasn't a bad guy.
