DISCLAIMER: I DON'T OWN WARRIORS
Scourge P.O.V
Scourge made his way through the forest, silently grinning to himself. He enjoyed the fact that he was going to rule the forest. He and his clan would have no competition, there was plenty of food. When Tigerstar first showed the forest cats Bloodclan they were shaking in their flea ridden pelts. Scourge laughed as remembered Tigerstar tried to control Bloodclan. It had not ended well, scourge had ripped Tigerstar's stomach from tail to throat, staining Scourge's white paw crimson. Tigerstar lost all nine lives at once. Another tooth was also added to the many on Scourge's over filled collar.
Scourge had his eye caught on a little gray flecked she-cat. She had the same ice blue eyes as him, and he thought he saw something that was not quite what he expected to see in her eyes, it wasn't just fear but something close to respect. Scourge couldn't get over that, the other forest cats were terrified of him except her. He couldn't remember her exact name but it started with Ash.
Scourge was so deep in thought he hadn't realized he was near a Thunderclan patrol. He stayed low and recognized that gray flecked pelt, it was her. The other cats hadn't seen or scented him yet. He quickly turned to head toward the Bloodclan camp when he heard a toms voice say, "Ashpetal come back here we have a patrol to finish."
Scourge then heard paw steps retreat from near his hiding place. He quietly made it to camp and picked up a plump thrush on the way. He sat in his den and ate thinking of what his clan can do to those mouse brain forest cats if they don't leave to forest soon. All of a sudden Sally, a long haired calico she-cat with emerald eyes, burst through the mossed covered entrance.
"What is it Sally?" Scourge asked coldly.
"I thought I would come and see you, is that so bad?" Sally said in an odd tone.
"I have more important matters to deal with. Come back when there is a something real happening." Scourge said with a hidden sigh. That she-cat had been trying to spend so much time with him lately.
"Fine." She said in a saddened tone. She turned around and slowly walks out of the den her long tail nearing Scourge's face before she finally left.
Scourge thought to himself, what was up with that she-cat? He bent his head and took a large bite out of his thrush and had a hard time concentrating. He finally curled up with his tail tip over his nose and slept. He dreamt of nothing, there was no sound, no scent, no anything, except the face of Ashpetal before he woke. He felt something against his side; it was warm and slightly moving. Scourge yawned and lifted his head, his ice blue gaze landing on a fluffy outline and several colors. He blinked a few times to get the tiredness from his gaze; Scourge soon figured out the fluffy lump was Sally. He sighed and heaved himself up, purposely moving the now purring lump waking her.
Sally yawned and rose saying, "Good morning." With a smile.
Scourge hissed and said, "What are you doing here?"
"Don't you remember? Oh wait those herbs I found must have done it."
"What herbs?" Scourge said calmly licking his chest.
"Oh never mind then you'll remember in time." After saying that Sally left with a small giggle.
"Crazy she-cat." Scourge mumbled as she left. She was going too far. He can't remember what happened if he had woken. He assumed it was her way to try and get him with her for longer than three seconds. He laughed to himself and walked out of his den.
He was later in the forest again staying to himself. Scourge had dropped into a hunting crouch and was stalking a squirrel when a black and white tom caught it before him.
"Bone. That was mine." Scourge said icily.
"Sorry scourge." Bone replied and offers the squirrel to scourge.
"I'll find another." Scourge said with an icy stare and heads off in another direction.
…
Scourge soon found out that he accidentally ate some herbs and he went a little strange. She had just been assigned to keep the leader of Bloodclan alive during that strange time she had enjoyed doing it more than she should have. He was angry at her but he let it go, for now.
But what got to Scourge was that he couldn't get Ashpetal out of his head. No matter what he tried he couldn't stop thinking of her. Scourge acted like nothing was the matter around his clan, and sally couldn't tell anything was wrong.
Bone left Scourge alone, it was a mistake, and Scourge started demolishing his den. He couldn't control his sudden rage. Then it was over. The pieces of petal and leaf littered the ground like ash. The ground was flecked lightly. Scourge let out a small gasp at what he had done.
Bone soon returned and gasped at the carnage Scourge had created. Bone's black and white head shaking in disbelief. Bone then leaves Scourge and the wreckage of his den.
Scourge sits in the middle of the carnage and focuses his mind trying to calm himself. His ice blue gaze unwavering as sally enters the den and sits with him. She pulls close and watches Scourge intently. Scourge lies down his sight blurring and he drifted into an uneasy sleep. He did not know when sally had left, but he could not feel her presence near him. Scourge exits the ruined den and found sally eating nearby. She ate a mouse and had a vole with her. She offered it to Scourge and he took it.
Sally took this as a sign of affection and purred. Scourge ignored it and let her purr. Scourge ate his vole slowly with sally next to him. When he finished she followed him into the ruined den. They attempted to clean it up but managed to take care of the flecks of debris and some branches.
