Chapter 4

"What are we going to learn today?" Ravenpaw jumped up and down. Today was his 5th moon of training, and he only had to learn a little more.

"You've learned alot, Ravenpaw. But tonight, you're going into a real battle." Jaywing replied, looking straight at nothing.

"Jaywing, why are your eyes clouded? Did you get hurt?"

"I was born blind. Havent you asked this?" Jaywing snorted.

"No, I havent. I just realized." Ravenpaw scented a squirrel.

Morningfur will love that! Ravenpaw purred, getting into a hunter's crouch.

"Whatcha sniffin', Ravenpaw?"

Some leaves rustled and the squirrel let out a few squeaks of fear before sprinting up the tree.

Ravenpaw stood up and growled. "I was trying to hunt!"

He unseathed his claws.
"Whoa, thar, buddy! Keep them claws in."

The moment he said 'thar', Ravenpaw realized it was Deadfang. He was made a warrior just a moon before Ravenpaw. He spoke with a weird accent, like he was from the Ancient Clans.

"Oh! Deadfang!"

Jaywing padded into the conversation. "Deadfang! What are you doing here?"

Deadfang smiled at look at Ravenpaw. "Scarin' away someones prey."

Ravenpaw playfully swatted at him.

"Ravenpaw, you can have the day off to hunt."

"Okay. Cmere, Deadfang!" Ravenpaw pounced onto Deadfang's back and Deadfang walked around like a badger.

"Arn't you a little too old for this?" Deadfang laughed as he stomped into camp.

The three new kits, Dewkit, Yellowkit and Sharpkit started squealing. "Badger!"

They unseathed their tiny claws and started to slash at Deadfang's leg.

Deadfang laughed. "Rooar!"

"Eeee!" the kits stumbled back in laughter.

Ravenpaw slided off Deadfang's back and laughed.

"Thanks for the ride, badger!"

Deadfang nodded at him. "You're welcome!"

Deadfang stalked over to the fresh-kill and grabbed a squirrel.

Ravenpaw, Smallpaw, Brokenpaw and Dustpaw all gather together to eat their freshkill.

"So, Smallpaw, hows training as a medicine cat going?" Dustpaw asked inbetween bites.
"Great! I've been learning all the herbs, and what they do!" she replied.

"How about you, Ravenpaw?"
"Well, I've learned everything there is to learn! We'll have our assesments soon."

"I hope!" Brokenpaw butted in.

Dustpaw sighed. "I guess.."

"Whats wrong?"
"I-"

"All cats old enough to catch their own prey, please gather beneath the Highrock!"

The four kits gathered. "Whats this about?"
"No clue."

"We are going into battle with SoulClan soon. We must get our revenge."
