Ok, I am back. Yeah I know makes new story promises new chapter does not deliver but this chapter is here now and it is in Bluepaw's pov.
Fanfic To-A-T: I might continue The Naru King, I only stopped because I got lazy and really needed a break from fanfiction and then there was also the reason of exams which I have finished so now I can update freely. Almost I still have lame projects to do too so by the end of June my updates will become regular again.
Bluepaw pov
That hunting trip was probably one of the most awkward moments ever. Mizupaw and I hadn't talked or interacted for a while. It wasn't really my fault we just got separated and stuff happened.
Flashback
Being an apprentice was super fun especially with my best friends ever Mizupaw. This was my first hunting trip with one of the 'three' it was pretty awesome. We had been challenged to see who can collect the most prey. When we had finished I had more than Fangpaw to his shock.
"Hey Mizupaw, how was your hunting trip?" I asked him as I walked into camp. He shuffled awkwardly while shaking his jet black fur.
"I didn't do very well; Stickpaw and Rubypaw were laughing at my attempt to hunt." I suddenly felt my fur spike up in anger.
"Don't listen to them, I'm sure you are a great hunter but it was your first try those two have hunted a lot before." I told him.
"Sure, I guess I'm going to go give my prey to the elders." He muttered. After he padded out of sight I felt a tail tap on my shoulder.
"In there," He pointed to the apprentice den "No questions asked." I followed him in; I could see the younger warriors whispering something. Was I in trouble? I didn't do anything.
"So Bluepaw, darling Fangpaw tells me you greatly exceeded his amount of prey. Is that true?" She asked with a hint of jealousy in her voice, what could have made her envious?
"Yes I did." I simply replied.
"Well, you see apprentices like us grow up to be warriors who become candidates to become deputy then leader, we are stronger, better and faster than average apprentices. So I would like you Bluepaw to join us, to lead the next three when we become warriors."
"But there are already three of you, how can I join?" I asked.
"Simple, Fangpaw is only an apprentice for three or four more moons so when he becomes a warrior you will join us from now will be helping you and assisting you. So therefore you must always stay by our sides and follow what we tell you." She said
"Ok, but can I have some time to think about it." She looked at me in surprise then continued.
"Sure, that is no problem I am sure you will pick the right choice." She said with a tint of anger in her voice.
I couldn't sleep for the rest of that night, so I decided to stretch my paws this time at night the guards would have fallen asleep. I knew that from once when a caught some older warriors sneaking out.
The only cat awake was Brownpaw, he was a blind tom but since his mother didn't want him to be a kit forever he got his name changed. He was looking my way; I usually ignored him because his black, soulless eyes scared me.
"Hey, Bluepaw is that you?" He asked.
"Yes."
"Good your alone there is something I want to tell you." I took a step closer.
"What?"
"I am only going to say this once, stay away from Mizupaw." He snarled.
"What! Why?"
"Don't act dumb I overheard those three apprentices talking you're gonna become one of them then abandon Mizupaw. Not that you cared about him in the first place." He hissed.
"Hey!" I said a little too loudly.
"Oi!" I recognized the hatred in Thrushfang's voice and dashed back into the den before he caught me.
Flashback
After that I wanted to spite Brownpaw so I joined the three, looking back on me now. I don't see how that affects him that much if anything I gave him what he wanted.
Ever since we hadn't really talked, I felt bad if I wanted to back out I could do it now. Fangpaw was becoming a warrior in a few days, and then I would have to take his place. How did Mizupaw feel about this? Was he angry at me? Was he maybe glad that we aren't friends anymore?
I had noticed him staring at me from time to time. So did the others especially Rubypaw, she would always take me somewhere else or glare at him. Off that subject, thousands of times I've been told that a tom my age should be looking into their options which right now were Rubypaw and Stickpaw the only girls close in my age range. There is now a new rule in shadowclan about who can be your mate, if they are not at least five moons older or younger than you then the relationship will not be allowed.
I didn't like Rubypaw much if anything I detested her, something much more than hate. Stickpaw didn't seem interested in me nor did I feel interested in her.
I looked over at Mizupaw he was sitting with Brownpaw but kept stealing glances at me. I grabbed some prey and padded over to them.
"Hey guys, what're you talking about?" I asked.
"Bluepaw that is not a word it is 'what are'." Snapped Brownpaw
"We were just talking about who is going on that trip." Said Mizupaw as if he wanted to clear away the awkwardness.
"What trip?" I asked.
"Tigerfoot didn't tell you?"
"I wouldn't have told him either." Muttered Brownpaw low enough for Mizupaw not to hear.
"After Fangpaw becomes a warrior, we are going on this big expedition just the four of us. Then at a meeting point we get split into two groups for a week for our mid-training assessment." Mizupaw explained.
"Ah, well that's cool I hope we get paired together." I put my tail on his shoulder and felt his fur flush.
"Uh, I have to go make dirt see you later heh heh."
And end of chapter surprisingly with more time on hand, this took only two days. Next update sometime next week maybe or during the weekend we'll see.
