Chapter 4

Too Suspicious

The newcomer turned, "I want to join your clan."

I walked up to the black cat, "I said 'Who are you?'."

The cat bowed his head, "I met your sister."

I drew my lips back slightly, "What?"

Greystripe padded up behind me, "Firestar said 'Who are you?' does he need to repeat that?"

The black cat sighed, "Name's Coal. I want to join your clan."

My ears lay flat across my head, "What are you? A loner or kittypet?"

He exposed his neck, "No collar, I am not a kittypet. I hated Twolegs the moment I first looked at them."

I flicked my ear, "Hm… if you want to join our clan then you must prove that you are brave enough to be one of us."

Greystripe nudged me with his tail, "He did save most of the clan from a fox."

I looked back to my friend and then back to Coal. I sighed, "That is true." I walked up closer to the small cat, "Come back first thing in the morning. Then I'll decide your fate."

Coal backed up a step but then bowed his head respectfully, "Alright. I shall see you when the sun rises."

Coal turned around and pawed through the underbrush and, with a flick of his tail, was gone.

I relaxed, looked over at Greystripe, and smiled at the reassuring look in his eyes.

Coal seemed suspiciously familiar, but maybe it was a coincidence. He couldn't possibly be back… could he?

I'm back after a year! Sorry for the wait, but I practically gave up on this story. I decided to get it going though! You can tell where the year difference is in this chapter. I had the document with half of the chapter on it and decided to finish it.

Please review a recamendation for what Scourge' warrior name should be! I love letting the reader's decide!
