I am giving up on the 'POV Clues'. This POV is Berryfur. Check either Chapter 1 or Chapter 5. JK, you don't have to do that. It's Jason. It's just Jason. That's the info you'd get from those chapters. Also, the last 4 chapters were Allegiances, so I wanted to add this: Please keep in mind that these could change since cats could die or upgrade their rank ( Become an apprentice/warrior/deputy/leader )
" Berryfur! " Spiderleg yelled. I cringed.
" Why are you getting so distracted lately? " He scolded.
I had just let a rabbit slip from right out under my claws.
" Seriously, Berryfur. Is something wrong? " Leafpool asked sweetly.
" Is something wrong? " I growled.
She stepped back. I lunged, raking my claws over her belly. Blood oozed out before Cloudtail tackled me. I struggled a bit, but Cloudtail was stronger than me. And heavier.
" Berryfur! No matter what you're going through, you don't attack your clanmate for no reason! " He screamed.
He walked off to tend to Leafpool like his apprentice ( Redpaw ) and Spiderleg.
" Redpaw, go tell Firestar, " Cloudtail sighed as Redpaw nodded and ran off. Then he looked pointedly at me, " You wouldn't expect something like to happen on a Hunting patrol. "
" Come on, Leafpool. Let's go see Jayfeather. Doesn't hurt too bad, does it? " Spiderleg asked.
" Yeah. It's not too deep. I'll be fine. I used to be a medicine cat, I know what I'm saying. We can continue hunting for a while." She said, arching her back. As if she was testing the pain.
" No. We've caught enough anyways. You're injured. It's not like Jayfeather has other patients that he should be focusing on. " Cloutail insisted.
She had it coming. Is something wrong?
Yes! Something is definitely wrong! The cat that I love hates me! And what's more, I think her best friend loves me!
Berryfur, please? We're just going for a walk. You should just go back to sleep.
I could still hear her sweet voice when I tried to fall asleep. That, and Ferntail's voice.
Nothing. Go back to sleep, Berryfur.
Her voice filled with lilting melodies that made me feel all warm and snuggly inside.
All of that confused me. I shook my head. I followed Leafpool and apologized.
" Sorry. I'm really sorry. I was just tense, and your question just pulled a nerve. I swear I will never do that again. To anyone. "
She nodded, but I could tell she didn't really forgive me.
" Berryfur, " I heard Firestar from behind me, " you attacked your clanmate? "
" Um, yeah. It was an accident. "
" Cloudtail tells me that you tackled her and drew blood. Even when we mean to fight each other, we keep our claws sheathed. " His tone was accusing, and his glare felt piercing.
" I didn't mean to! " I yelled.
" I can't think of a punishment good enough for you, yet. Meanwhile, you'll be taking over all the apprentice tasks. " He said briskly.
I stared at the floor as I walked on.
" Berryfur?! Did you actually attack Leafpool? " I looked up to see Petalnose.
I hesitated, but nodded.
She stared at me for a bit and finally said: " I'm sure you had a good reason. I hope she gets better. " She looked away, and padded off.
What will Ferntail think about what happened with Leafpool? Will she have faith in me, like Petalnose did? Or will she hate me even more for my newfound 'violent tendencies'? Well, I'm not really violent, but that's not what the clan would think now.
Ferntail. Her sleek black pelt like the night sky and her stormy gray eyes.
Petalnose. Her clean white fur that reminded me of a swan. Her green eyes.
Ferntail hates me. Petalnose loves me. We all used to be friends when we were apprentices.
" Come on Berrypaw! Let's go surprise her! "
" Coming! Stop running so fast! " I panted.
She turned around. " What can't keep up? You probably shouldn't have eaten that third rabbit. " She teased.
I tackled her and she laughed at me because she was a much better fighter than me and made me surrender easily by kicking her hindlegs into my stomach and made me flip over.
We ran into the forest, sniffing around to find Petalpaw's scent.
" Fernpaw! Over here! It looks like she crossed into Shadowclan territory! "
" Then we'd better go, too! " she flicked her tail before dashing across.
" Fernpaw! You're going to get into so much trouble! " I yelled after her, not daring to cross the boundary line.
She hadn't heard me, but I sat there for a while, waiting for her.
She came back with Petalpaw, and they were both giggling madly.
We used to be so close. All 3 of us. Then Ferntail had started pulling away, becoming more solitary. We were still friends, but we never spent much time with her. Just when I had fallen in love with her. When we became warriors, we became used to simple nods and ' Hi ' s and ' Sorry, we'll talk later ' s.
Petalnose and Ferntail were still very close, but I wasn't.
And I wouldn't get over Ferntail.
Why did I attack Leafpool!? It was a common rule in the clan that we kept from fighting her. She was a medicine cat at heart, so she obviously isn't that great of a fighter. We don't even practice with her. If she took an apprentice, that would be bad too.
I saw a thorn in front of me, I stabbed my paw right onto it. Blood spilled gently from the wound. I winced as it dripped onto the ground. I deserved to get hurt.
I limped back to my den and curled up in my nest. When I slept at night, I made sure I was always next to Ferntail. Her presence comforted me, so when I woke up, I actually found myself entirely in her nest. Her scent wafted over me and I felt snuggly. I looked down and saw that I had bled into her nest. I would have to explain it to her later. I moved back to my own nest and fell asleep again.
I like when characters are imperfect, so here is Jason, randomly attacking someone. I didn't really have a plan for this, I just wanted to do a Jason POV. As I said in the first chapter: The ships are all messed up.
Only in the beginning. I'll get Jason and Piper together eventually. The end ships will be only official ships. You can already see that he is doubting his feelings for Ferntail.
I ship Solangelo ( One of 2 OTP's ) but since Will is a medicine cat, I'm not sure whether I should make them get together. If you have an opinion about that, please review and write an extra comment including this.
I know that in the first chapter I wrote that I would only continue it if 1 person followed it, but I don't care anymore. It has been really fun writing this, so I don't care if people read it anymore.
