Chapter 9
The clan was leaving the camp with only Redfern and the two she-cats. Sparrowpaw had convinced her mother and father that the two she-cats had eaten a rotten thrush. Larkstar had agreed and let them stay, but go to Featherstone when she returned if they were still ill. Cinderpaw and Sparrowpaw had snuck out of camp using the dirt-place tunnel once Redfern had fallen asleep with the kits.
By the time the she-cats had gotten to Pouncer's bush/home. "Hide in that Shrub behind the oak, I don't want him to see you, or hurt you," said Cinderpaw. Sparrowpaw nodded and disappeared into the shrub. Cinderpaw patiently waited for Pouncer. The bush started to rustled, and Pouncer came walking out.
"I didn't think you would come," he half yelled, half whispered. "You know that you are a very brave and beautiful cat don't you," asked Pouncer.
Cinderpaw felt hot under her pelt, and heard Sparrowpaw grunt quietly. "Why did you want to see me?" asked Cinderpaw defensively.
Pouncer looked hurt. "I thought you looked beautiful and I wanted to get to know you." He said.
"That's not a good answer!" snapped Cinderpaw. Her fur started to fluff up, and rose. She forced it to lay flat as she calmed down. Pouncer didn't even flinch at her outburst. He even seemed to laugh.
"Cinderpaw, I think it's cute when you screech. I even enjoy it," he smirked. This angered Cinderpaw. Stop! This is what he wants! I can't fall for his dashing charm. He is very attractive, but I like Tallpaw, I think? "I'm sorry for angering you Cinderpaw," he said, blue eyes full of apology.
"It's ok Pouncer," said Cinderpaw. She suddenly found herself on top of Pouncer. He had pulled her on top of him and pinned her down.
"Why can't you be mine Cinderpaw?" asked Pouncer. He licked her cheek and touched noses with her. Cinderpaw felt like her nerves frozen.
"Why, Pouncer why me!" screeched Cinderpaw as she jumped away from him. "I never want to see you again!" Cinderpaw ran back to camp with Sparrowpaw at her heels. She turned her head once only to see Pouncer's sad smile.
This last part will be told from Pouncer's point of view.
Why! Why did she have to come? See is so beautifulI will find a way to join her, I'll join her clan! Then we can be together! I will have to change my name when I get there, but I don't care! I will do because I love her!
Little did poor Pouncer know, Tallpaw was thinking about how much he loves Cinderpaw? DUN… DUN… DUN… Next chapter, Tallpaw and Tinypaw will become warrior, and you guys get to pick their names!Contest! I will give you recognition, but hurry because the chapter will be posted tomorrow. Oh, I forgot to add that, yes Pouncer is moving to Thunderclan. Crazy, right?! Cya soon-Majesty.
