Chapter 2
I had just finished introducing flippy to brick and bone. Their expressions were blank. “he seems pretty weak scourge.” bone meowed. “he almost killed scourge! How is that weak?!” brick argued. “why exactly did he do that?” bone asked, glaring at flippy. Flippy sighed. “I'll tell 你 why, but it's a long story.” brick and bone exchanged a glance. “go on.”bone mewed. “it all started one fateful day, I was called out to serve in a war.” flippy began. “it turned out, two of my 老友记 were called to serve too. The 日 we got there I knew it wouldn't be easy. We were up against a whole army of blue tigers. I sent out one of my friends, sneaky, a frog. He killed one of the solders. My other friend attacked too. He gave a solder a bomb shaped like an apple. Then I attacked. I fought the general of the solders. I had a hidden knife, I threw something at him but it turned out to be the 食物 I was hiding it in. my friend with the bombs thew a bomb at the general. He reflected it. I was trying to save sneaky who was stabbed in the chest. When I finally pulled the 刀 out it sliced my other friend. He dropped the bomb and the whole place exploded. The tiger solders were searching for us. I had no time for grief. I hid in sneakys body. They didn't know I was there. And then it happened.” flippy stopped as though he didn't want to finish the story. “go on.” bone growled. “i flipped out.” flippy continued. “i burst out of my 老友记 body and attacked the solders. I beat them all but since that 日 when ever I'm reminded of war I just lose control and attack everything in sight.” brick and bone still looked expressionless. “i think he should join.” bone finally mewed. “i agree, he could be valuable to us.” brick meowed. I hid it from them, but I was overjoyed. “then he's a member.” I meowed.
The 下一个 day, I got a surprise visit. “scourge, someone wishes to see you.” bone meowed. “bring him in.” I replied. A few moments later I got the surprise of my life. In front of me was tigerpaw, the can from the clans that nearly killed me. Am old member, boulder was net to him. “have 你 come back to grovel boulder?” I growled. “no scourge, I have a good life in the forest. Prey is rich and I don't have many enemies.” I glared at him, suspicious. “then why are 你 here?” tigerpaw stepped forward. “he escorted me here. I am tigerstar, leader of shadowclan and I have a deal for you. If 你 help me with something then I'll give 你 part of my forest.” tigerstar huh? New name, same guts. “I'll accept your offer tigerstar.” tigerstar looked pleased. “all right. I'll take 你 to the forest. Follow me.” tigerstar meowed before walking away. I followed, bringing bloodclan with me. We walked for a while. Then we were there, in the forest. I was happy to be there, it was almost time for me to get my revenge. A bunch of 猫 were surrounding us. “greetings tigerstar.” one of them meows. “you came then. Not still looking for those escaped prisoners from riverclan are you?” tigerstar snapped at the 橙子, 橙色 cat. “you'll regret that days work firestar!” he snarled. “try and make me.” firestar replied. Tigerstar didn't reply. Some of his other followers slid out of the bushes. Tigerstar stepped 前锋, 期待 and glared at firestar. “have 你 thought about my offer?” he growled. Firestar exchanged a glance with a black and white tom. “we reject your offer. The forest is not meant to be ruled 由 one leader, especially nt ot one led 由 a dishonorable leader like you.” firestar replied. “but it will be.” tigerstar growled. “with 或者 without you, 由 sunset today the time of the four clans will be over.” “the answer is still no.” firestar meowed. “thunderclan will never submit.” “nor will windclan.” the black and white tom mewed. “then your courage is matched only 由 your stupidity.”tigerstar growled. The argument went on. I stopped listening. Then tigerstar called bloodclan. We stepped out behind him. “well?” tigerstar growled. “are 你 sure 你 still want to stand and fight?” the clan 猫 stared at the bloodclan cats. “collars?” one of them spat. “they're kittypets!” “keep quiet.” another one warned. “we don't know anything about these 猫 yet.” bone stepped beside tigerstar. Some of the clan 猫 looked impressed. Scourge stepped to the other side of tigerstar. “ so tigerstar, do 你 want to tell us who your new 老友记 are?” firestar asked. “this is bloodclan.” tigerstar replied. “they come from twolegplace. I have brought them to the forest to persuade 你 foolish 猫 to 加入 with me. I knew 你 wouldn't have the sense to agree on your own.” some of the clan 猫 whispered to each other before tigerstar continued. “you see firestar? I am even 更多 powerful than starclan. For I have changed the forest clans from four to two. Tigerclan and bloodclan will rule together.” the clan 猫 looked surprised. But they didn't let tigerstar see their shock. “no tigerstar.” firestar meowed. “if 你 want to fight, let us fight. Starclan will 显示 us who is 更多 powerful.” “you 老鼠, 鼠标 brained fool!” tigerstar spat. “i was prepared to come here and talk to 你 today. Just remember that it is 你 who drove us to this.” tigerstar swung around to face us. “bloodclan attack!” he hissed. No cat moved. Tigerstars eyes widened and he screeched. “attack, I order you!” still none of scourges warriors moved. Scourge stepped forward. “i am scourge, leader of bloodclan.” he introduced himself to the clan 猫 then faced tigerstar. “tigerstar, my warriors are not yours to command. They will attack when I tell them and not before.” tigerstars eyes glittered with hatred. “this could be my chance!” scourge thought. Just then firestar stepped in between them. “greetings scourge, I am firestar, leader of thunderclan. I wish I could say 你 are welcome in the forest but 你 would not believe me if I did. I have no wish to lie to you. Unlike your ally here, I am a cat of honor.” scourge listened, wishing he could rip firestars furs out, but that's not what he was here for. “if 你 believed any promises he made to you, you're mistaken.” firestar was annoying. I had to tell him something to make him shut up. “tigerstar told me I'd have enemies in the forest.” I meowed. “why should I trust 你 instead of him?” firestar looked surprised. “cats of all clans.” he began. Oh no, now he's talking even more! Shut him up someone! I didn't listen to what he 说 but it made silence strike. Something about tigerstar killing 猫 to get what he wanted I think?
'mew away little kittypet. It won't change anything.” tigerstar rumbled. Firestar ignored tigerstar and kept talking. “why won't he shut up?” I thought. I wanted to plug my ears with moss but I pretended to listen. A shocked murmur swept through the clans. Then firestar kept talking. When he finally stopped tigerstar growled. “good riddance.” then firestar kept talking still. When he finished every cat looked stunned. “this is tigerstars history.” firestar meowed, turning back to scourge. Firestar 说 更多 but scourge blocked out his voice. When he was done scourge narrowed his eyes and thought. “i always knew that cat was dumb as crowfood.” then he turned back to firestar and improvised. “tigerstar told me what he was planning with the dogs. He didn't tell me that his plan failed.” he meowed, hoping he made sense. “none of that matters now.” tigerstar growled. “we had an agreement with 你 scourge. Fight beside me and 你 will have all I offered you.” “my clan and I fight when I choose.” scourge replied. “i will think about what 你 have said. There will be no battle today.” tigerstars 毛皮 bristled and his tail lashed. “traitor!” he screeched as he leaped at scourge. Scourge easily dodged tigerstar then he swiped and ripped tigerstar open from his belly to his chest. Tigerstar fell to the ground and 迷失 his life. Scourge felt triumph flood in him. Terrified yowling came from tigerstars followers. Scourge ignored them as they fled, watching tigerstar die. Bloodclan moved 前锋, 期待 as if they were about to attack. Scourge raised one of his blood soaked paws and they stopped. “you see what happens to 猫 who defy bloodclan.”scourge warned the clan cats. “your friend here thought he could control us he was wrong.” firestar looked at scourge. “we don't want to control you.” he meowed. “All we want is to lead our lives in peace. We're sorry that tigerstar brought 你 here with lies. 你 are welcome to hunt before 你 go home.” “go home?” scourge spat. We will do no such thing!” bone and flippy stepped to his side. “the forest belongs to bloodclan.” bone growled. “give it to us 或者 we'll make you. 你 have until four sunrises from now to decide your fate. Choose wisely.” with those words bloodclan left. The clans looked frightened. That's just the way bloodclan likes their enemies.
