Chapter Five
"Wild" Wild rolled her eyes in annoyance, it was Grasswhisker again here to ask some stupid question about the valley. Sure he had been a good hunter in the past few days. But honestly, he was getting to be as bad as Cloverpaw. "I um have something to ask of you." "What is it" Wild hissed "Make it quick." "We'll you remember my mate, Stormflower?" Wild thought of the she-cat the Grasswhisker had briefly mentioned in his story. "What of her." said Wild
"She-she's was close to giving birth when we were separated, and I think she'll die if she has to do it on her own. I saw the direction that she run of to,the Twoleg camp. Really I'm begging you" He looked Wild strait in the eye "Will you help me save her?" "What?! Of course not!" Wild hissed "I'm not risking my life so that I can help some cat I barely, now rescue a mate that he can just replace!" Grasswhisker's fur flared and he retorted.
"How can you say that?! Stormflower means more to me than any cat in the world. I can't just replace her!" "Oh please" said Wild laughing cruelly "It happens all the time with the strays. Tom say that he'll never leave this she-cat, then he sees the new abandoned persian kittypet and it's heartbreak forrest for her!" "Yeah well this isn't Twoleg place. Here in the forest when a cat say 'I love you' they mean it!" Grasswhisker was shouting now "Of course I wouldn't expect some rouge to understand love!" He finished before dashing off.
Wild sat stunned, as Cloverpaw came and sat next to her. "Wow that's a new low for you." she said "Um excuse me." Wild said still shocked from Grasswhiskers outburst.
"Well excuse you, but Grasswhisker has been helpful and kind the past few days, and now he's asking you to help him get back to his true love." Cloverpaw pause for breath before going on. "And not only do you refuse him, but you also break his heart. Yeah that's definitely a new low." "Yeah that's still not going to get me to help him" said Wild
"You know" said Cloverpaw craftily "Maybe if you help him, he just might decide to stay with Stormflower and leave you in peace." Wild thought this carefully over and said "That, is something I will work for." And dashed off to find Grasswhisker. She found him sitting by the pond looking into it sadly. "Come to rub it in" he said when he sall Wild. "No" Wild said sitting next to him "I've come to apologize. I can see how much Stormflower means to you, and Cloverpaw will do anything to see that two 'tragic' lovers get reunited." Wild rolled her eyes but went on "Still we'll help I you don't know what Cloverpaw's like when she's mad.
Grasswhisker looked stunned but finally managed to say "Oh oh thank you, thank so much I'll never be able to repay you tha-." "Save it for when we get you mate back." Wild said. Grasswhisker nodded quickly, and the two walked back to camp in silence
