Zodiac (warrior cats)

Chapter 22

Angry barks sounded from the opposite side of the Rock Wall. Ferretpaw could tell that the dog was trying to leap over the earth, but was utterly failing.
"Dog's really are stupid" he snorted while turning to Sprucepaw, "Don't you think so?".
The brown apprentice heightened her gaze, "Not really, No. If you knew how much he loved his twoleg's then you'd understand why he was trying to protect them. Its like Queens trying to protect their kits."
Ferretpaw gaped in shock, "You're seriously comparing Dog's and Queens? Sprucepaw that's just plain stupid!". In Ferretpaw's opinion, if an animal loved a Twoleg that much, then they were either incredibly insane, or just stupid.
"Hey do you hear that?" Sprucepaw perked her ears, and flicked her tail to the RiverClan border.
Confused, Ferretpaw did the same, listening with his light cream-furred ears. He could faintly hear the sounds of snarling and fighting in the distance, cats were fighting!
"The Patrol" he breathed, "They must have encountered RiverClan cats, we have to hurry!".
Without even waiting for Sprucepaw to follow, Ferretpaw bounded up the crevice they were cornered in and onto the green grass. Trees were scattered in front of him, Ferretpaw had to keep his mind focused in order to avoid them.
Those stupid River Rats, he snarled silently. Did they really have the nerve to attack WindClan on their own border? There could be no other explanation, the WindClan patrol most certainly didn't cross it.
Coming to a stop at a large hill, Ferretpaw gasped as his eyes lay on the sight before him. In between two small rivers near the RiverClan territory, hordes of cats were fighting ruthlessly.
Fur and blood already scattered the ground, and it looked like RiverClan was winning.
"They started a battle!" he gasped as Sprucepaw joined him, her green eyes wide open.
I have to do something, Ferretpaw could feel his muscles tightening. The cream and brown tom spotted his father Ravenpelt amongst the fighting pelts, what if he got hurt!?
"Spottedpaw and Branchpaw" his brother and sister were fighting as well, in fact Ferretpaw could see a large RiverClan warrior pinning his sister down at this very moment.
"I have to get to them" he looked down below the rocky mound.
"But you can't make it down there" Sprucepaw reasoned, "We have to find a way to go around."
Spottedpaw could be dead by then, and Ferretpaw couldn't take that risk. A rush of adrenaline seemed to spike in the young toms blood stream, he felt an energy flowing through his veins.
Ferretpaw had never felt this way before, he felt like he could take on the entire clan of RiverClan! And then all at once, Ferretpaw bunched his muscles and leapt off of the hill.
Air blew through his striped coat, and in a matter of seconds Ferretpaw was standing next to Spottedpaw. She turned in surprise at her brother being next to her, he got there quicker than a flash of lightning.
Lightning, Ferretpaw thought with exasperation. The lightning bolt on his ear, Ferretpaw had a clue to what his power was this whole time!
"Get off of her!" Ferretpaw rammed into the warrior Grassfoot, knocking him a few fox-lengths away.
Making sure his sister was okay, Ferretpaw now spotted Horizonpaw cornered between two RiverClan warriors. Faster than he could blink, Ferretpaw was standing in one of the tallest trees of the forest, right above the WindClan apprentice.
Jumping down, the tom bowled into the two warriors, streaking between them swifter than a jack rabbit.
"How did you do that?" Horizonpaw echoed in awe as he rose his golden body.
Ferretpaw for once couldn't answer the toms question, he didn't know the answer himself. But Ferretpaw knew one thing, he finally had a power of his own, he was finally a true Zodiac! And now that Ferretpaw knew what his power was, he was going to use it.
With a gleam in his hazel eyes, Ferretpaw raced away to test out his new power on all the unsuspecting RiverClan warriors.
