Blood's Love

Chapter Four

"Blood." Dark speaks, stepping out of the shadows of the twolegplace. Bloodpaw turns, his eyes glittering in the moonlight as he nods to his father. "Father."

"What have you figured out about the clans?" Dark speaks, his eyes, so much like his sons, glaring at his son. Bloodpaw shifts his paws nervously. "Shouldn't we give the clans a chance?"

Dark growls, eyes narrowing. "What are you saying, Blood?" His tail lashes as his mind goes over every possible reasoning for this question.

Bloodpaw shifts nervously. "Their amazing. They have the best rules and if Bloodclan becomes an actual clan, then you will get nine lives!"

Dark growls, before nodding and Shina, a she-cat from the clan, and several other cats come out of the bushes. "You have spent too much time with them, son, come home."

Bloodpaw growls. "You haven't even considered how long of a life you will have! You could rule part of the forest!"

Dark nods to Shina, whom stands next to Bloodpaw, claws unsheathed, so she could take him home without him running. "I was afraid this would happen. You have become too attached. We will attack the clans at moon-high, when the gathering of the cats is."

'I must warn Skystar!' Bloodpaw thinks, before hissing at his father. "If you cared one bit you would listen to me!" He turns, tackling Shina out of the way, before rushing away, towards Thunderclan, so he could warn Skystar. That's when he's tackled from behind by Shina, whom he throws off, before turning, unsheathing his claws. "If you want me to come with you, you'll have to force me. I'm Bloodpaw now and I'm a part of Thunderclan." He hisses, before leaping at Dark, tackling his father away.

Dark hesitates, before he grabs his son by the scruff and throwing him to the side. Wound grabs Bloodpaw's scruff to hold him, before Bloodpaw turns, and swiping at his eye, making Wound let him go and bolting towards Thunderclan border. He notices a Windclan patrol nearby, so he runs towards them, before he feels something huge land on top of him and scratch his stomach and face. He tries to shake the cat off, before dropping and rolling. "Jaja! Please!" He asks his old friend, staring at him before Jaja attacks him again, aiming for his head. Bloodpaw ducks out of Jaja's paws way, before feeling a sharp pain in his side.

Heart pumping, he steps to the side as Jaja attacks him. He throws himself at Jaja, before pinning him to the ground. "Yield!" He yells, staring at his old friend. He didn't notice Shina coming towards him and when he did, he turns, only for his left eye to be caught by her unsheathed claws. He screeches as her claws go through his eye and down his face, before he collapses from the pain.

"You idiot!" Dark growls, rushing towards his son whom is scrambling away, shaking his head, trying to get away, before Jaja grabs him by the scruff and holds him in place. "Bring him with us. He needs time to re centre himself."
