"... We just have to have the courage to know what it is, and accept it."

This was drawn for =CeruleanOasis 's Perfect Warrior contest!
uhhh dang it. now that i think about it, does she count as a warrior? crap crap crap whoops um
The cat is Cinderpelt and the scene I chose is where she fought the badger that was trying to invade the nursery, dying to save Sorreltail and her kits.

Well, I believe she's the best representation of bravery in the series because even though her life was riddled with hardships and challenges, she persevered through every moment of it. She wasn't even meant to become a medicine cat, but she was brave enough to accept her new fate and make the best of it. I mean, she got run over by a car and twisted her leg and was so detached from StarClan even as a medicine cat and her mentor died while she was still pretty young and auugghhh poor thing. But she didn't succumb to self-pity and in the end, she sacrificed herself for her clanmates. She even knew she was going to die beforehand but she accepted it anyway, just like she had done her entire life. She was so brave to keep fighting, no matter what life threw at her. She faced her own death like a warrior she never got to be.

... I'm not sure if I can still enter since this is really at the last minute, but I suppose I'll post it anyway! ;w;

It's kind of weird and... colorful.. and really not my best piece but I tried to make it work. I guess I should have just gone with my usual style. Really bad idea to experiment. >w> I wanted to show the whole sense of urgency that came with fighting a monster twice your size and emphasize how protective Cinderpelt was being over Sorreltail and her unborn babbus at the same time. I guess it came out looking kind of surreal.
