Scourge watched them walk off and narrowed his eyes when he noticed newly-named Athena and Bone walking so close their fur brushed but he decided to ignore it. Pine's warning echoed in his ears. I'm warning you. Much will go you're way, but the goddess will help you get through it. The night that he received that message, he stayed up and just couldn't stop thinking about it. Before he sent Bone to get her, he realized that she was the Goddess. And she was meant to be his mate, whether she liked it or not. He sighed and crawled under the dumpster to sleep.
When he reopened his eyes, he was in the twoleg nest with Pine. Scourge. Briar is not the goddess we meant! She is in love with another! Do not ruin this for them! His echoing voice angered the small tom. "What do you mean!?" Scourge snarled. "She is mine! If I must, I'll take her by force!" he whipped around and stalked away. DON'T DO WHAT WE THINK YOU ARE GOING TO! Pine yowled to him as he left. "I'll do want I wish.' Scourge growled.
