Into The Wild Analysis

In my book Warriors: Into the wild there is a protagonist and antagonist that really have a great affect on each other. This conflict brings up a theme in the book. Keep your friends close and your enemies closer. It shows that even though you are against this person-or cat- you can still learn from them and become smarter because of them. Firepaw and Tigerclaw not only show this but show the conflict between a protagonist and antagonist. There is many differences between both of them and there is a difference between actions before and after Firepaw knows about Tigerclaw. The author had many reasons for this, some of which you might learn in this chapter. Talking more into the antagonist. Another one besides Tigerclaw could be Shadowclan

Firepaw had very different feelings about Tigerclaw or, in the book Warriors: into the wild, the antagonist before he found out what Tigerclaw had done and was planning to do. He looked up to the great warrior. As did every cat in the clan. They all saw what was on the outside. That is something that happens to people every day. Such as with mental illnesses. You can’t always tell when someone is going through something so we all judge and look at what is on the outside not even knowing what is hidden on the inside until it is let out in ways that could have prevented.

Now I can relate Firepaw’s new views of Tigerclaw to a partial personal experience. In my class, my teacher was brought to the attention of an issue with technology that was very disappointing to her. She was even more disappointed when she found out who it was that had done this. Flying words at each other, these two had really disappointed my teacher. She looked at these people differently after seeing what they could do, not even thinking it was even possible for these kids to act this way. She saw them with a different lens. A worse lens. This is very relatable to Firepaw and Tigerclaw’s issue. On page 162 it says,” Then he noticed the small shape of Ravenpaw at the entrance of the warriors’ den. Tigerclaw stood beside him. Firepaw saw Ravenpaw’s ear flatten as the young cat flinched away from Tigerclaw’s fierce words.” (Warriors: Into the wild). Firepaw saw this and was already thinking of what this could mean and how this would affect Ravenpaw and his paralyzing fear of Tigerclaw. Before he may have seen it and just thought of it as a mentor scolding an apprentice but he knew it was more than that. Especially since it was right after the gathering and Tigerclaw heard him
