Heres the next chapter be happy.


Icefall's P.O.V.

Freepaw pounced at me I batted her to the side, "You did it wronge again," I said with a sigh.

"Ow!" she yowled

"What!" I said in alarm did I hit her to hard?

"I got a thron in my paw." She said limping over to me

"Then you'd better go see Willowfrost then but hurry back here after words." I told he she nodded and limped. I sigh and sat down looking around I saw Venomslash with Shadowpaw and Starryhope with Banepaw teaching a hunter's crouch. Starryhope said something to the two and I watched Shadowpaw shift her wait wial Banepaw just sat up I padded a little closer so the I could hear what was going on.

"Banepaw all you have to do is shift your weight to your hunches a little more and you'll have a perfect crouch." Starryhope said to him in the natraly gentle voice.

Banepaw glared at her, "I told you I can't" he said calmly.

"If you'd just try-" Banepaw cut her off.

"I can't what put don't you under stand I can't!" He snapped at her.

"You can't talk to your metor like that." Venomslash snapped at Banepaw who glared at him.

"I can do what ever I want and she's not my mentor Frozentime is." he snapped and ran off.

"Banepaw!" Starryhope called after him I padded over.

"What was that about?" I asked.

"He hates me for taking Frozentime's place." Starryhope said a hint of pain in her voice.

"No he's just a snobbly little badger." Venomslash said to her.

"Venomslash! No he's not!" Starryhope said to him sound distressed.

"Starryhope its ok I'll go talk to him." I said trying to calm her. As I said that Lunarclaw padded into the clearing with Moonpaw who tilted her head to one side.

"Starryhope Venomslash? Where are Banepaw and Shadowpaw?" She asked. Venomslash whipped around to find that Shadowpaw wasn't there any more.

"She must have gone after Banepaw her self." I said.

"Why whats wroug with Banepaw?" Lunarclan questioned.

"He was being the little badger he is and when we tried to set him strait he ran off." Venomslash said to him.

"Venomslash! Thats not true he ran off because he hates me for trying to take Frozentime's place." Starryhope said defending the young tom.

"Why are you defending him whe he treats you so bad!" Venomslash snapped.

"Wait you mean Banepaw and Shadowpaw are out the alone with that huge rouge probably thirsting for Banepaw's blood!" Moonpaw yelled out loud.

"What!" Starryhope yowled wide eyed.

"Moonpaw! Don't talk like that." Lunarclaw snapped her. She flattened her ears to her head.

"I'm sorry I just got a little worked up." She said scuffing her paw on the ground.

I sighed, "Thats enough Banepaw's and exelent fighter and Shadowpaw will be able to track him down she probably already has and as long as there together they're safe so just let Banepaw have his space and when he comes back well have Frozentime talk to him." I said getting tired of every one getting worked up by an over stressed ingured snappy moody bad tempered apprentice.

"But what about Shadowpaw Banepaw's unpredictable when he gets like that he might hurt her." Venomslash pointed out.

F l a s h B a c k

"Banepaw if just put a little more spring into your pounce you'll be perfect." Frozentime told him. Banepaw tired again but failed he had been trying to master the pounce you would use to jump on top of a fox. Spiralstar stood up and walled over.

"Banepaw you have to put more spring like your mentor told you." She said fermly.

"I can't." She said getting up off the ground shaking snow off his pelt.(This happened back when her first became and apprentice back in bare leaf its now the next leaf fall)

"You have to." Spiralstar said.

"I can't." Banepaw said with a hint of snarl in his tone.

"Banepaw please just try once more." Frozentime asked in her gentle tonehe nodded. Banepaw lept again but landed short a couple mouse lengths.

"Try again." Spiralstar ordered.

"I can't do it." He said looking down at his paws.

Spiralstar padded over to him,"I said try again." She snapped.

Banepaw rounded on her and the swatted at her with un sheather claw leaving claw mrks on her shoulder then his eyes widdened as he realized what he had done and he ran off. Frozentime was stunned she was really the only one besides Leafpaw that could handle him. Not even his own mother could.

"That was a long time ago Venomslash he has more self control." I said to him.

"We don't know that." Venomslash snapped.

"Venomslash there are cats that Banepaw would claw with out thinking twice Shadowpaw isn't one of those cat Banepaw would never hurt her he's said so him self." Moonpaw said in a low voice.

Yes another flash back...

"Banepaw you're combined to camp until I say other wise." Spiralstar told him.

"But thats not fair I didn't do anything." He snapped.

"You went out of camp when you were told not to." he told him calmly.

"But-" He was cut off by Shadowpaw.

"Banepaw if you would just listen to rules for once insted of breaking them then you wouldn't be in trouble all the time." She snapped. Banepaw looked at he wide eyed. Shadowpaw's eyes widdened to when she realized she just snapped at him and she ran off.

Later that day I was sunning my self with Banepaw, "I can't believe you didn't claw Shadowpaws face off for talking to you like that." I commented.

He sat up and looked at the sky, "I would never hurt Shadowpaw," he said I looked at him, "I wouldn't be able to even if I wanted to she's just way to inosent I wouldn't be able to live with my self if I were ever to claw her." She said not shifting his gaze from the sky.

Venomslash stared at her, "He really said that?" Moonpaw nodded.

"See? She'll be fine now every one back to camp." I ordered closing the discotion of the delincwent apprentice hurting Shadowpaw.


Basilleaf's P.O.V.

I when hunting and had caught a thrust and was now sitting with tortoiseshell rouge waiting for her to wake I watched the river flow by as I waited I kept my thoughts wonder to my clan until I was called out of them by the rouge she cat stured I watched her rasie her head and look at me, "You ok?" I asked her. She instently was on her paws as soon ar she saw me.

"Why are you her get away from me!" She snapped.

I was now very confused,"I'm here because I tried to save you from drowning." I said calmly

"Lier you're from that evil clan of cats ." She snapped at me.

"Flameclan evil? What are you talking about?" I asked in complete confusion.

"Your clan is ruthless they killed my brother!" She snapped at me her lips curling back in the begining of a snarl.

"Really? I'm sorry but just because some cats in Flameclan are ruthless doesn't mean we're all like that. Like I wouldn't hurt you." I said to her.

She bristled. Then looked into my eeyes and seemed to relax then a scent hit me. I watched as a blur of dark brown collided with the she cat in front of me and saw a huge tom lunging for her throat I pounced chrashing into his side and we tumbled a few mouse lengths away before regaining footing. As soon as we did he pounced at me I easily dodged and ranked my claws down his side.


Sabriel's P.O.V.

I watched in shock as the Flameclan tom battle the rouge tom feircely I was shocked when I looked into his eyes they sreamed everything but feirce. Now I knew I was wronge as he and the darker tom became a fury ball of yowls teeth and claws. When they finally broke apart the large dark brown to charged off I padded over to the Flameclan cat, "Why would you help me I thought Flameclan only cared for its self." I said to him.

He flicked his whiskers,"No thats just where our first loyalty lies with the clan." He said licking to wound on his shoulder the he had gotten in the battle with the massive tom,"Whats your name?" he asked me suddenly,"Mine's Basilleaf."

I hesitated for a second,"My name is Sabriel," I told him then in a lower voice I said,"thank you for saving me...twice."

"You're welcome it really wasn't a problem though." He said still licking his shoulder.


Shadowpaw's P.O.V.

I opened my mouth and followed Banepaw's scent,"This is stupid," I thought to my self, "I can't even talk to him so why am I trying to find him?" I asked my self as I followed his scent and when I looked up I saw the dark ginger and black pelt of Banepaw sitting om the edge of a steep hill looking at the lake. I padded over I knew he knew I was there, I sat next to him he didn't move his eyes from the lake intil I had sat down,"Why'd you come here?" He asked shifting his pale blue gaze to rest it on me.

I shrugged, "I don't know." I murmured softly.

Thats strange when that happens and you do things with out evn knowing what your doing." He said not moving his gaze from me. I looked in to his eyes and roze I couldn't move and what was really heart beats seemed to be seasons as I stared into his eyes. After a few heart beats he turned his head back to the lake.


K the chapters done... And I know things have been sentered around Banepaw a little but in this chapter you got to know a little about his backround and what he's like.
