Perchclaw

Perchclaw trained Waterwhisker to be a medicine cat. Later, when he was exiled, he convinced her to come with him. She agrees, but Perchclaw, being cold-hearted from the start, leaves her to die in Twolegplace. Snowstorm and Swiftstar find her, and they are told it was all Perchclaw's fault.

Waterpaw's Mistake
Perchclaw faced Waterpaw, pushing a large yellow flower towards her. "Now, what is this used for?" Waterpaw's eyes furrowed in concentration, and she jumped up.

"Oh! Oh! I know! It's used for..stomachaches!" she guessed wildly. It looked a bit like some other herb she had seen before. Perchclaw snarled, bringing his paw down onto the flower and cutting it and squishing the petals. Waterpaw stared in horror at her mentor.

"Why would you do that? What if a cat needs it?" Perchclaw snarled again, swatting at Waterpaw's ears. She crouched down in fear, shivering.

"That is a tulip! It comes from a Twoleg's garden. It is completley useless. You'd think, after 8 moons of training, that you'd know the difference between a herb and an useless piece of Twoleg decoration!"
