The challenge for RainbowClan was to write five different drabbles (100 words each), all on different emotions. I actually chose the challenge :) Anyways, if you would like to join the writing challenge there are some details on my profile. ~Splashpaw of RainbowClan

1. Hopeful

With my loyal Clanmates by my side, we would win this battle. I know we would. I observed the warriors by my side… I trusted each and every one of them with my life. And I'm sure they trusted me with the same. My mate, Poppyfrost, waved to me as I left the camp while our two beautiful kits, launched out of the nursery just in time to say their goodbyes. I stopped for a moment, for a split second, worried. But I pushed it away. I would see them again. With honor, with triumph, and with victory.

2. Happy

It was official. When the sun peeks out from behind the distant mountains, my day would come. I would leave behind my den, my denmates, the most of my chores, and exchange it for a warrior name and warrior life. This time next sunrise I would finish my vigil, and hear the sound of my Clanmates praising my hard training. I can think of no better cats then my littermates, who would be standing by my side and sharing glory. This was our day, and just like any other, we would live it to it's fullest. I smiled.

3. Grief

Why did it have to happen to me? I was the one who truly cared about her, the one who was by her side every minute of every moon. She should have passed away as a warrior! Not an apprentice who was trying to save her Clan from badgers! Loyalty flooded her with every turn, and without realizing it, the Clan had lost it's greatest warrior. And my best friend. She was loved. I will never forget that emotion that flooded over me as she tilted her head towards me, seconds before the badger swiped at her. Never.

4. Worry

My first battle. Looking to my side was the Clan deputy, a cat who was nearly three times my height. Not to mention three times my strength as well. He would do his best to protect me, but the Clan would come first. Both of us were aware of that. I waited, being alarmed at every leaf falling, until I heard the onslaught of the dashing dreaded ShadowClan assassins. I couldn't turn back now, and I charged towards the brawling cats, in my heart screaming in terror. They were not here to defend, they were here to kill.

5. Betrayed

The thief! The traitor! It had been organized and preplanned. We would bring the catmint in exchange for the warrior back. But that's not what happened. Apparently we had waited too long to free him. We were too late. His pride was gone, and with it, his loyalty. Once a Clanmate, now an enemy. He has grown to trust the clan that had captured him. He had been converted to their side, and would never be hesitant to fight his true kin in battle. He was now an outcast to our clan, though he was welcome to theirs.
