Owlfern of Cougerclan sprung onto Starlingpetal, who went limp in her grasp then slithered out from under her. Owlfern caught her again but clumsily and ended up getting dragged across the training clearing. "Hey!" she yelped, her claws scraping on the dry earth. Starlingpetal laughed and scrambled out of Owlfern's grasp. "I wouldn't want to be attacked by you," she meowed. Owlfern scraped the grass with her claws. "Maybe I need to get better," she queried.
"No, you were good." Starlingpetal looked serious but Owlfern still felt uncertain. As she padded back to camp, she realized that a loud...

Rainpaw adjusted in her nest, feeling bone-tired. Why couldn't she fall asleep? She glanced outside. The sky was dark, and Rainpaw guessed that it was a little after midnight. She rose slowly to her paws, careful not to wake anyone and padded slowly out of the den. She spotted Morningshade on guard duty, pacing back and forth with her eyes trained on the dark pine forest that lay beyond the camp. Rainpaw carefully picked her way through the camp and into the forest. Maybe I can get some hunting done, she thought. Rainpaw sniffed the air and picked up the scent of squirrel. She followed the...

The kitten tries to wriggle out of my paws as I rub the chewed up burdock into his cut. “Stop moving, Tigerkit!”
“But it’s cold!” he squeaks.
“It doesn’t matter! It’ll make your cut heal faster. You don’t want more pain, do you?”
“Oh, no!” Tigerkit meows, terrified. He’s so amusing. He’ll act brave in front of the other kits but when it comes to pain, he can be such a little baby.
I finish rubbing the burdock into his cut then let the squirming kitten go, getting a few scratches myself in the process. I’m about to go back into the herb storage when I start to hear...

“What’s this?” asks Lightpoppy, putting a bitter smelling herb under my nose.
I think for a moment, the smell’s familiar. “Burdock?” I ask.
“Good job, Rosepaw!”
Then my sister, Poppypaw rushes in, panicked.
“What’s wrong, Poppypaw?” asks Lightpoppy in her calm voice.
“Lionpaw fell from a tree and broke his leg!” she yells, breathless. Just great, my brother has managed to get into trouble again. He just had to break his leg! And when I was learning, too!
“Oh my!” exclaims Lightpoppy. She turns to me and says, “Rosepaw, please get me some cobwebs and burdock while...

"Badger!"

I heard Squirrelflight yowl and I ran out of the den and saw that the other's have done so as well. I spotted Firestar emerge from his den and launched himself off towards the ground. Then I saw Cinderpelt and Brightheart come out of the medicine cat's den-Brightheart snarled at the intruder. I stared at the badger as it stood in the hollow, scanning the area.
I was about to fling myself at the badger with unshethed claws, but then then more trampling noises started to occur. I looked around at all sides of the camp and saw lots more badgers coming in through the barrier. Then with...
