Plushstar's Journey

Chapter 6

"What have I done!" She shouted in her mind. She looked behind to see if anyone was following and didn't see anyone.

She skidded to a halt and looked at her paws, then looked behind her again to see trails of blood from where she ran.

Her fur bristled and ran off to find some water to rinse the blood off.

When she found some water, she jumped into the shallow area and began swishing and licking her paws to get the blood off her.

"I torn a cat's ears off! Am I still gonna get into StarClan after this?!" She asked herself, licking her chest fur. "I don't know, good cats don't tear other cats apart!" She cried out.

She looked into the water at her reflection. "Am I a bad cat?" She asked herself again.

Just then her ears pricked at the sound of yowling and she whipped her head around to see Berrypaw being taken away by two other cats!

One she recognized as Pidgenfeather!

She growled and started run after them. "Berrypaw!" Plushpaw called. "Plushpaw! Help me!" Berrypaw called as Pidgenfeather got her by the scruff of the neck.

"I'll take Berrypaw back to camp, you handle her!" Shouted Pidgenfeather through the scruff. A small ginger she-cat with brown ears and tail jumped out from the other side of the two.

Plushpaw tried to go after them, but the ginger cat knocked her on her side. She stood back up on wabbling legs and stood her ground, facing her attaker, Berrypaw calling once again for her sisters help!

"I'm not afraid of you!" Plushpaw growled and got into a fighting stance. "Oh? But you just turned into a apprentice today, right?" The other cat said. "What does a newly made apprentice like you have against a leader like me?" Grinned the she-cat.

Plushpaw made the mistake to see if Berrypaw was still in sight when she was takled over and pinned to her back. Plushpaw gasped as the wind was knocked out of her. She looked up to see the cat about to bite her when she slung up a paw and scratched the *molly across the face. The ginger cat growled and grabbed the apprentice by the fur on her neck and shook her violently. She then tossed Plushpaw against a tree and pinned her to it. The she-cat took her claws and sunk them into Plushpaw's chest slid her claws down her stomach.

As the apprentice yowled in pain, a figure came by and knocked the she-cat off the apprentice. Plushpaw fell to the ground, bleeding all over the place. She looked for Berrypaw with half lidded eyes and heard Spotstar's voice. " Cherrystar! He dare you come into my territory and attack my apprentices!" Was all she heard before she saw her sister was nowhere in sight and passed out, feeling jaws closing around the second scruff of her neck and passed out.

Head throbbing, Plushpaw rose her head and looked around, noticing she's in a dark place. The smell of herbs and NightriseClan cats told her she was back in camp in the Medicine Den. She then remembered what happened before she passed out.

Jumping up, she shouted, "Berrypaw!" and went to run out the den, but felt major pain on her underbelly and chest and fell back down, mewling in pain. A small light blonde she-cat came padding towards the injured apprentice. "Lay still Plushpaw, you'll reopen your wound." The she-cat said in a soft voice. "I need to find my sister!" The apprentice shouted angerly at the molly. "You need rest." The she-cat snapped back in a less kinder tone. "Now stay till or you'll bleed all over the place." She said sternly. Plushpaw sighed. "Yes Lightfoot."
