CHAPTER 3

(Bramblepaw's POV)

Bramblepaw padded after Chippedbird. Her brown fur beginning to bristle as ShadowClan scent filled her nostrils.

"When do we attack?" she heard Moorpaw ask Redwing.

"We may not, we don't want to start a fight unless we have to," she murmured, Moorpaw flexed his claws impatiently.

"I wish Mistypaw were here!" he muttered, Bramblepaw silently agreed. She had been forced to stay in camp due to an infection she had gotten when a thorn was left untreated.

Moorpaw ran ahead and fell in step beside Bramblepaw, "Excited for the battle?" Bramblepaw asked.

Moorpaw nodded, "I'm going to shred ShadowClan!" he boasted fluffing out his fur. Bramblepaw rolled her eyes, cheeky fur ball he's only been an apprentice for half a moon and he acts like he's a warrior already! I'm a moon more experienced, I can't believe Cloudstar let him join the raid!

"I'm sure you will, your a strong cat!" Vinetail praised. Bramblepaw dug her claws deep into the earth. I never get praise like that! Mistypaw does!

"ShadowClan won't stand a chance with Moorpaw on our side!" Cloudstar joked his blue eyes twinkling.

"What are you doing on our territory?" A black ShadowClan she-cat hissed.

"My warriors have found dead prey on our territory with ShadowClan scent all over it," Cloudstar explained.

"And were was this?" a ginger tom asked.

"Near the border!" Redwing growled.

"Then of course there'd be ShadowClan scent on it! WindClan is hare brained!" the ginger tom spat.

"Darkfeather you and your Clan will pay for this...WINDCLAN ATTACK!" Cloudstar yowled. Bramblepaw leaped on Darkfeather pinning him to the ground. Dazed Darkfeather scrambled to his paws swatting Bramblepaw away easily.

"Thought you could get away that easily?" he snarled pouncing on her, he dug his claws into Bramblepaw's flank. She yowled in pain, shaking free she nipped Darkfeather's tail, he turned quickly causing Bramblepaw to fly off his tail and slam into a tree. Fuzzy dots clouded her vision for a couple moments but Bramblepaw shook herself and launched back into the battle. Darkfeather was no where to be seen but a new ShadowClan patrol was running into battle. Oh StarClan they've brought two more patrols!

"WINDCLAN RETREAT!" Cloudstar yowled, Bramblepaw looked up from fighting a Shadowclan apprentice. What? Why? She wondered, then she spotted Moorpaw, the young apprentice was drenched in blood.

Bramblepaw raced over to him, "What happened?" she asked.

"A flank injury" Cloudstar murmured, "He may not live"

Bramblepaw padded beside Vinetail and Redwing the whole way back to camp, Moorpaw's body resting on their backs. I don't like the arrogant tom but I didn't want this to happen! She thought as his tail brushed her nose, Mistypaw's going to be SO worried, I don't know what she sees in him but still...her thoughts break off as Chippedbird padded over to her side, "I saw you fight Darkfeather you were really good and with so little training...Moorpaw will be fine"

"How do you know?" Bramblepaw asked turning to stare at her mentor.

"Just trust me...I was well a medicine cat apprentice once" Chippedbird admitted. Bramblepaw stared at him but decided not to question him any more.

"Well StarClan willing" she murmured.

"Yes," he agreed, "StarClan willing."

Bramblepaw watched Mistypaw as she paced outside the Medicine Cat den.

"I'm sure he'll be okay," she murmured trying to comfort her friend.

"What? Oh...yeah," Mistypaw murmured then anger flashed in her eyes, "Why would you care? Its not like you ever liked him! Always nagging me about how annoying he is or how boastful! Never truly caring!" she spat, Bramblepaw blinked in surprise.

"Mistypaw, your my best friend! I'm sorry I don't like Moorpaw..." her voice cracked as she stared at her best friend, her only true friend.

Mistypaw shook her fur,

"I'm sorry, Bramblepaw. I'm sorry! I'm just worried that's all..." Mistypaw explained. Bramblepaw nodded realizing for the first time how sad Mistypaw looked. Her gray calico fur was ruffled, her blue eyes were glazed and her infected paw was bleeding.

"You should get something for that" Bramblepaw suggested flicking her tail towards her friend's paw.

"No! At least not now, Dawnfire is to busy with Moorpaw, it can wait!" Mistypaw insisted.

"Why don't you go see him, come on all go with you." Bramblepaw meowed padding into the medicine den, Mistypaw followed warily.

"Come on Bramblepaw we should go!" she hissed.

"To late" Bramblepaw muttered flicking her tail towards Dawnfire she was looking straight at the two apprentices.

"You want to see Moorpaw?" she mewed.

Bramblepaw nodded,"Can we?"

"No!" Dawnfire hissed, adding, "Sorry dears but Moorpaw is VERY sick right now, I can't let other cats in. Even Raintail and Hawkthorn." the orange and white she-cat meowed. Mistypaw's fur began to bristle.

"Okay" Bramblepaw muttered exiting the den. She padded over to her make shift sleeping nest and looked up at Silver Pelt. Please StarClan don't take Moorpaw tonight..Mistypaw settled down beside her. Taking a deep breath Bramblepaw turned to her friend,

"Mistypaw the reason why I was so rude to Moorpaw was because I was jealous, jealous that he was getting so much praise, jealous you fit it, jealous that I didn't," she paused, "Jealous you had someone who loved you."

Hope u enjoyed :) Bramblepaw plushies for all the reviewers!
