Hi! I've decided to write, or type, another story! What would have happened if Firestar was evil? And only one cat knew? Her name is Rainpaw, and she's my character! This story starts shortly after Firepaw came to ThunderClan. . . On with the story!
Chapter 1
Rainpaw stared oddly at the knew apprentice. Firepaw, to be correct. Her green eyes swerved from side to side, like little glass bulbs. She twitched her jet black tail. Her fur was a light gray color. As Firepaw padded away with Graypaw, Rainpaw trotted to Sandpaw. Sandpaw had begun to lick her pale ginger fur. Rainpaw sat next to her.
"How do you like Firepaw?" Rainpaw asked her. Sandpaw glanced at her with a look of disgust.
"Who could like him? I mean besides Graypaw. . . Why, do you?" Rainpaw shrugged. He was kinda cute, but then, whenever she looked him in the eye, some strange feeling came over her. Something about him. . . just wasn't right. Suddenly a black tom with a white tipped tail barreled out of the bushes.
"What happened, Ravenpaw?" Bluestar blinked. Ravenpaw was deeply wounded. He crawled weakly up HighRock. At first he coudn't get out the words. As he stammered, the clan slowly inched toward him.
"Redtail is dead!" He finally yowled. The cats let out yowls of sadness. Redtail was the deputy of ThunderClan and not just a deputy. . .a good deputy.
"How did this happen?" Bluestar mewed, surprised.
"We were fighting with RiverClan at SunningRocks when-" Ravenpaw's words were suddenly cut off, as he fell down off of HighRock. Spottedleaf, sensing an injured cat, padded out of her den. Rainpaw watched as she trotted gracefully toward Ravenpaw. A bush rustled. Rainpaw turned to look at the bush. Tigerclaw came backing through the Gorse Tunnel; dragging the broken body of Redtail. Rainpaw gasped. Bluestar lept off of HighRock, first glancing at Ravenpaw, then padding to Tigerclaw; who sat patiently next to Redtail. Rainpaw lept to her feet. Tigerclaw was way to calm about this. . . something wasn't right. Bluestar licked Redtail, then shook her head slightly. She padded back over to HighRock. Is she going to name the new deputy? Rainpaw though, glancing at Tigerclaw. Bluestar lept onto HighRock once more. Rainpaw padded a little closer to Bluestar, then sat down.
"I say these words before the body of Redtail," she yowled, her voice not even wavering from Redtail's death."So he may hear and aprove my choice. The knew deputy of ThunderClan will be Lionheart!" Lionheart looked up at her with surprise.
"I am honored, Bluestar." Rainpaw glanced at Tigerclaw. She fancied she saw his face flash with anger and disappointment, but if it did, it lasted less than a heartbeat. Rainpaw watched quietly as Tigerclaw padded over to Lionheart. She would have been over there congratulating, but she had some investigating to do. She got to her paws, streched and padded to Graypaw. His eyes were filled with pride. Who could blame him? His menter had just become deputy. Firepaw sat only a fox-length away from Graypaw. Thank StarClan, he isn't close enough to hear. . . Rainpaw sat next to Graypaw. They were so close, their sides were brushing together.
"So, Graypaw, how is Firepaw? Is he nice?" Graypaw turned his head to Rainpaw. Unaware of how close they were, he put his nose to Rainpaw's. His eyes grew large as he realized what he was doing.
"Oops. . . sorry," he said pulling his nose away."Yeah he's nice, and he's fine. Why?"
"Just wondering." Was Rainpaw's reply. Graypaw accepted that and placed his gaze on Lionheart once more. Rainpaw nodded and crawled in front of him. She placed herself between Graypaw and Firepaw. She inched closer to Firepaw."So, how do you like it here? Is there anyone you don't like?" Firepaw glanced at her. As their green eyes met for a heartbeat, that strange feeling washed over Rainpaw. She looked away.
"It's great here!" Firepaw mewed, cheerfully."And there's no one that I don't really like. Why?"
"Just wondering." Rainpaw inched away. When she was far enough away, she got to her paws. I guess he's ok. . . I'm only guessing though. Rainpaw's eyes caught Ravenpaw. Before she could get to him, Graypaw and Firepaw cut her off. She watched from afar at first, then padded to Ravenpaw. A few heartbeats after she sat down, Tigerclaw trotted over; his eyes blazing with anger.
So how did you like the start of it? Should I continue? Anyway. . . REVIEW!
