Chapter 10
Silverpaw grew cold. Nettlepaw was her friend. The idea of never seeing the brown and white tom over-whelmed her. "Is she awake?" she heard Reedpaw a moment before his sturdy black frame pushed through the dens entrance. She smiled at him. Reedpaw trotted forward and pushes his muzzle into her cheek.
Pebblepaw struggled not to leap onto his brother. Envy bubbled in his stomach and he lifted himself up and trotted from the two cats. Pebblepaw flew himself into a run and flung himself at the camps entrance. His claws scrabbled over stone as he pushed himself through.
Pebblepaw flew through the woods, racing in no particular direction. He leapt up and grasped a oak's tough bark. He pulled himself up the tree as past as he could, clawing branch after branch. Finally he reached the highest branch that would hold his weight.
Tears rolled down his face. Pebblepaw clung to the branch, blood roared in his ear and he felt as if his heart was being clawed out.
His thoughts pounded in his head "Every one likes my brother SO much. Not one cat in the clan likes me as much as him. Not even Silverpaw. I love her and she looks at me as a friend."
Anger swelled as Pebblepaw thought deeper. "Reedpaw knows I love Silverpaw. He WON'T win this time!" Pebblepaw flew down the tree racing toward camp.
Pebblepaw lunged through the camp entrance and flew into the medicine cat den. He flicked his tail flirtatiously at Silverpaw and nodded at Reedpaw. "Let's go hunting." Reedpaw shrugged and followed Pebblepaw out of camp.
After the brothers had traveled out of camp always Reedpaw looked dead into Pebblepaw's eyes. "Silverpaw IS mine BACK OFF!" Pebblepaw unsheathed his claws "OVER MY DEAD BODY!" Pebblepaw growled. Reedpaw leapt at Pebblepaw, raking his claws over his back. Pebblepaw spun around flying at Reedpaw, grasping his thick black pelt in his jaws.
