Ravenpaw

Description
Ravenpaw is a black tom.

History
Ravenpaw finds an adder. As he stalks it, he gets mad about Tigerclaw, who never cared for him. He believes adders can scent with their mouths as he looks at it sunning itself. He imagines how impressed the other apprentices would be if he caught the adder, and that even Tigerclaw would be impressed. Ravenpaw then tries to figure out what to do about Tigerclaw and Redtail, as part of him wants to tell someone, but another part is too scared.

Ravenpaw knows a part of him craves power and wants to be like Tigerclaw. He is well aware that he desires to train with Tigerclaw and betray his Clan. As he stalks the adder, he thinks it's like playing StarClan, as he gets to choose if the adder lives or dies. Then, suddenly, a hawk flies down and picks up the adder in its talons, then drops it in midair and keeps flying. Ravenpaw is shocked, as he knew the hawk could have killed him.

Ravenpaw thinks how he was like the adder, and how he had an enemy he couldn't see, that could have killed him. He looks at the adder, and decides to tell the Clan he killed it, then begins carrying it back to camp. He then thinks about the adder and himself again, and how he was smug and confident as if he owned the place. He thinks how he was wrong, as a hawk decided whether his prey lived or died.

Ravenpaw realizes that StarClan was telling him that no cat could control who lived or died. He stumbles a little as the realization hits him. He then knows he has to tell someone about Tigerclaw's secret.

When Ravenpaw returns to camp, everyone congratulates him on catching the adder.
