Darkfinch's Story - Chapter 4

The cat stared down at him, then leapt down on to the sand next to the water. Then another cat came. It took one look at the cat standing over Darkpaw and fled. "No! Help me!" Darkpaw called after the cat. "No, help ME!" the shadow cat mimicked his call. Suddenly a new cat appeared. It was a dark black cat, that blended into the woods. The cat stared at Darkpaw, looked over at the cat standing over him and spoke, "he does not belong here, let him go home or he will no longer be an asset." The cat let out a hiss. Before the cat could do anything the shadow/smoke effect on the cat disappeared leaving a gray and white cat. The black cat stared before shaking his pelt. The black vanished leaving a glowing white cat. The cats lunged at each other, hissing with rage. "Let the cat go back to his clan.  The cat nodded and… "What exactly are you doing?" snapped a voice. "I have called you 3 times and you are sitting in here on your back with your feet in the air." it was Darkenberry. "We were supposed to be on the dawn patrol. Then the hunting patrol left without. So now we have to train in the sandy clearing with Hollypaw and Mistlight. The 4 cats trudged up to the clearing in silence. When they got their, Darkenberry turned to his apprentice. "What were you doing. Being a warrior means being an asset to your clan. It means being on time to patrols. Even if they are early. It also means being ready to fight, and hunting for the clan. Which means, you are going to get the last piece of prey today. Now attack me." "You?" questioned Darkpaw wondering how we was going to win a battle against the clans most battle-hungry, and fierce warrior. Before he could create any sort of plan, Darkenberry leapt at him.
