A hard knot of frustration formed in Jayfeather's belly. Why can't that mouse-brain Lionblaze leave me alone? "You shouldn't be going out by yourself," he had told him. Jayfeather had felt annoyance and frustration fill his voice as he replied,"You don't need to watch over me like I'm a helpless kit! I've been walking through this forest since before we were apprentices!" Jayfeather's sudden anger had shocked Lionblaze. He could tell,it was pulsing from him like waves from the lake, and he heard it in his voice as he retorted, "I'm your brother, it's not wrong for me to worry about you! Besides, you're too important to be-" Lioblaze cut off the rest of his sentence as he saw Jayfeather's pelt disappear behind the thorn barrier. He had ran so fast that he arrived at the lake in no time at all. Jayfeather knew what Lionblaze was going to say, "You're too important to be lost in the past." An image of a white she-cat with green eyes flashed through his mind. Half Moon, the ancient she-cat he had fallen in love with. So long ago, it was a mistake to tell Lionblaze, Jayfeather thought. He took out his frustration on a nearby stick, shredding it into tiny pieces. Now that I'm out here, I might as well make myself useful, he thought. He picked himself out of the sand, and went in search of marigold. Despite his blindness, Jayfeather wove through the trees confidently. As he rounded yet another trunk, he crashed into a she-cat, sending them both reeling. "Hey watch where you're going!" As he crouched down to pick up the fallen plants, the newcomer spoke. "Who are you?" Jayfeather felt strangely satisfied as the newcomer asked these questions, as if he wanted to answer. "Better question: who are you and what are you doing here, in the abandoned twoleg den?"
"My name is Crescent and I live here, next to those strange plants."
"You didn't touch them, did you?!"
"No, why?"
"I swear to Starclan, if you touched my herbs, I will report you to Bramblestar." Crescent looked genuinely confused. "Who is Bramblestar?" Mouse-dung! I knew she would't understand! "Of course. You're a loner, you wouldn't understand. Bramblstar is the leader of my Clan."
"What is a clan?"
"It is a large group of cats living together, depending on each other for survival. Each clan is composed of warriors, apprentices, elders queens, kits, the leader, the deputy and the medicine cats. I am a medicine cat, and those 'strange plants' you live next to are the herbs that I use to treat my clanmates. Like if they have a sickness or are wounded or I come to stock up on them if I'm low or out of a particular herb." Jayfeather paused to let Crescent reply. "Can I join this Clan of yours? It is so hard living and trying to fend off foxes and badgers by myself. I nearly died yesterday when a fox tried to take my prey." Jayfeather felt a rush of sympathy for Crescent. She must be hungry! I can't deny her food. "I'll take you back to camp. But we will have to see what Bramblestar says about you staying." Jayfeather led her through the thorn barrier into the stone hollow, and headed to the leader's den.
Jayfeather hopped up the narrow stones, his pelt brushing against the hard stone as he stalked to Bramblestar's den.
"Jayfeather, who is this?" Bramblestar asked, confused.
"This is Crescent. I found her in the abandoned twoleg nest."
"What does she need?"
"She says she wants to join the Clan."
"Why?" Bramblestar said, pricking his ears up.
"She says life is too hard, and that she has many things to offer."
"I would let her right in, but it comes with a cost… What aspects does she offer?"
"She says she knows the best places to find catmint, which could be very useful, especially in leaf-bare."
"So, she wants to be a Medicine cat? I hope she'll do well. I'll call a meeting." Bramblestar strolled towards the exit and sat down. Jayfeather began to tell him that Crescent didn't wanna be a Medicine cat, but he had already left.
"Let every cat old enough to catch their own prey gather underneath the highledge for a clan meeting."
Murmuring cats joined underneath the highledge in a wave.
A majority of their faces shot towards Jayfeather and Crescent.
"As you know, Jayfeather found this cat in the twoleg place where he grows his herbs. She will now be a part of our clan. She has promised help within the Medicine cat role. May Starclan light your path, Crescent."
As Bramblestar finished, the clan erupted into anxious murmuring. "Why is she becoming a medicine cat? Surely she is not connected to Starclan? How could she even know about them?!"
This meow came Berrynose, who seemed more worried than anxious.
"I assure you, Berrynose, I would not have made this decision if I did not think it was best." The answer seemed to satisfy him, for he sat back down and said nothing else. Jayfeather lifted his head and cheered for her, and soon the rest of the clan joined in. "Crescent, Crescent!" Jayfeather sent a side-glance to Lionblaze, who seemed disappointed. He probably thinks that Thunderclan has enough medicine cats. I agree. He felt Lionblaze turn to look at him, but he turned his head. Jayfeather stalked towards his den and curled up in his nest. What seemed like heartbeats later Crescent entered the den and curled up in her own nest. It's going to take some getting used to. Jayfeather closed his eyes, but instead of pleasant sleep, he awoke in starclan's hunting grounds. Ugh. I can't ever have a moment to myself! "Bluestar, come out I know you're there!" Bluestar stepped out of the ferns, and spoke to Jayfeather, "Jayfeather, Starclan do not believe that taking this cat as your apprentice is the right choice." Jayfeather strode up to Bluestar and stared defiantly into her eyes. "I don't care! She's my apprentice!" Jayfeather turned to stalk away, but Bluestar said something unexpected. "You love her, don't you?" This question had shocked Jayfeather, and the answer came pouring out before he knew it. "Yes."
"You must tell her the truth."
Ok so I've made a slight mistake with the title. It is supposed to be "A Warriors Fanfiction." I know it sounds simplistic, but bear with me people, I'm only 13. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Give me criticism, I need to feed off of it to improve my writing.
