Authors Note: Watercoat and Poolpaw are my OC's.
Prologue
White, small, slick paws ran across the almost always wet ground (for it almost always rained in RainClan), followed by larger white paws.
"Poolpaw!" the older cat called out. "Wait!"
"No, Watercoat!" Poolpaw yelled over his shoulder. "Stay away!"
Watercoat growled. He kept running and, being the older one, was able to run faster. He eventually got close enough to pounce, and managed to land right on top of Poolpaw. They rolled around on the wet ground before coming to a stop.
"What are you DOING!?" Watercoat hissed. "You're going to get us killed!"
Suddenly, they both went quiet when they heard a low grunt and the bushes shaking.
"Bear." Watercoat whispered.
Poolpaw whimpered. "What do we do?"
"Run," Watercoat said. "RUN!
The two cats scattered. At that moment, the bear burst out of the brush, and began the chase. The look on Poolpaw's face as Watercoat ran next to him indicated that he was, in fact, extremely terrified.
"Don't worry," Watercoat said. "It'll be alri-"
He should have been looking where he was running, though, because he ran right into a tree, falling to the ground. He stumbled to his feet and turned around to see a very cranky bear running at him. he tried to run, but the bear got close enough and bit his tail as Watercoat turned around, and the beast was now lifting him into the air. He yowled and hissed and tried to claw at it, but it was no use.
It grunted, dropped Watercoat, and collapsed. Behind it stood the tiny body of Poolpaw. He had one of his paws lifted up, and it seemed to be glowing a light blue.
"I knocked it out," he squeaked. "I have a strange power or something."
"Is that why you ran away?" Watercoat asked.
Poolpaw nodded. "Please don't tell anyone!"
Watercoat smiled and walked up to comfort his apprentice. "Don't worry," he said. "I won't."
