Summary: Clear Sky is driven by loyalty.

Notes: Clear Sky makes no sense to me in the books unless he is absolutely insane. So...I made him insane and crazily dedicated to the voice in his head that he calls "The Cause".


Loyalty. That was what drove Clear Sky. He loved his cats, he was loyal to them above almost everything else. And they loved him and were loyal to him, too.

Loyalty was the most important thing in his camp. Loyalty to him, loyalty to the others, but above all, loyalty to The Cause. Clear Sky put his loyalty in The Cause, too. Without The Cause, they would be a disjointed, bickering rabble like Gray Wing's camp.

The Cause was Clear Sky's purpose. He was here to enforce The Cause, but Gray Wing just couldn't see that. It sorrowed Clear Sky that his own kind— Gray Wing, Jagged Peak, Storm, even Thunder!— couldn't see The Cause for it's true value. The Cause could not allow weakness. Weakness must be driven out. Clear Sky was strong. The Cause knew this; The Cause had revealed itself to him, so that he could instruct the forest cats of how to live properly.

The Cause was worth driving out weaklings and intruders. It was worth killing for. It was worth dying for, if it came to that.

And Clear Sky was loyal to The Cause.

He loved The Cause more than anything else... he only wished that his kin could love it, too.
