Chapter 10
Crowfeather fell back to walk along side Silvereyes and Jayfeather. Jayfeather shot him look that suggested he'd slaughter Crowfeather in his sleep in a most unpleasant and violent way. This made Crowfeather move away a bit and Silvereyes laughed at them.
"Did you know both your names end in 'feather'?" She asked.
"Don't EVER make that comparison AGAIN. EVER." Jayfeather hissed. "But anyway, for a medicine cat having 'feather' in your name is good. Usually 'feather' medicine cats don't break the code," he snarled, practically right at Crowfeather.
"For warriors it's what feather cats do," snapped Crowfeather. This probably wasn't very wise.
"Oh yah? Name one." Jayfeather challenged, narrowing his eyes.
"Me," Crowfeather replied, sticking is nose in the air.
"Other than you."
"Uhhh..." Crowfeather frowned. "Well, Feathertail and I fell in love..."
"But she died before anything got serious. Doesn't count." Jayfeather ruled, like a judge would, stamping his foot like a gavel.
Crowfeather blinked. "Uh, there was, umm...Featherstar appointed a deputy before he'd had an apprentice!" Crowfeather left out the fact that that happened before the rule was created.
"Doesn't count, out ruled. It happened before the rule was created he said, flashing Crowfeather an epic glare.
Days later they reached the mountains. "Why are we here again?" Sunfire asked as he shivered.
"We have to say hi to Stormfur." Jayfeather yawned and stretched. Just then, a group if cats appeared on a ridge high above them. The patrol did not see them.
Tanpaw flicked his tail in an extravagant way. The cats on the ridge nodded and began pushing on rocks to make them fall.
Tanpaw looked up in a most scripted manner and 'saw' the rock slide. "Look out! Rock slide!" he yelled, running deeper into a rising chasm where the patrol would be trapped between to rising walls of stone. The confused and terrified patrol followed dumbly. The rocks crashed down behind them.
