ICEPOOL'S POV
I wake up and walk outside to get a piece of fresh kill. Everything was surprisingly quiet.

"Hello Icepool" I hear a voice say. "W-who's there?" I ask nervously.

"No one you need to know, but there is one thing, you have changed the prophecy!" The mysterious cat says surprisingly angry.

"I-I want to know who you are how can I be sure I can trust you?" I hear a laugh as the silhouette of a cat walks out of the "warriors" den.
Ashfur. "W-What are you doing here?" I say nervously.

"Like I said you have changed the prophecy.' He says. "H-How?" I ask. "You took Bearclaw as your mate!" He snarls. "Anyway the greatest storm will knock the leaf off the tree at night as the falcon swoops by"

"What does that mean?" I ask but Ashfur is already starting to disapear.

"You'll figure it out later" He says before he completely disapears. I wake up in my nest starving. I walk to the fresh kill pile and grab myself a sparrow. I hear screeches in the distance almsot on cue Froststar runs in

"Cloudclan is attacking at the border!!" She yells frantically "I need all but three warriors to help" Everyone rushes out of the thorn barrier. I get to the border and see fighting cats everywhere. There is cat among them fighting Leaftail I can't really tell who it is. All I can tell through the blood of the battle it that it is a white she-cat.

Bearclaw leaps over my head •as a grey cat bowls into me. I meow in surprise, before leaping up off the dirt. Swiping at the tom, I leap away before he can retaliate.

Slamming into the cat again, he falls backwards and hits the ground with a thud. I leap onto him, slamming my claws deep into it's fur, sinking through the skin. I close my eyes, seeing blood well around the claw marks. I wrench my claws out of the tom's skin, hearing his yowl of pain. Opening my eyes, I recognize the cat as Ashfrost. He writhes in pain beneath me as I begin to pummel him with unsheathed claws.

"Leave and never come back." I snarl in his face, leaping backwards and crouching down to watch his next move. He hisses, eyes squinted almost shut due to the pain. Suddenly, another cat slams into my side and latches onto my shoulder with its teeth. I yowl in agony, wrenching away from the cat. Suddenly, I notice that it is the white shecat that was battling with Leaftail.

"Where's Leaftail?" I snarl at her.

"Disposed of." She flicks her tail, eyes flashing. I snarl, unsheathing my claws. She leaps at me, and I duck down and hook my paws under her back legs, twisting them and slamming her down. I flip her over and pin her down.

"Where is Leaftail?" I snarl. The cat beneath me bites my leg, and I hiss at the sharp pain, lifting it for just a fraction of a second. However, a second is all she needs to get away. I let out a meow of surprise as she flips our roles, pinning me down as I struggle.

"Listen, I don't have much time. Leaftail is a danger to the prophecy. You can't trust her." She hisses in my ear, barely audible over the sounds of the battle around me.

"Who are you to tell me about the prophecy and who is a danger to who? You just attacked me!" I snarl in her face.

"Just trust me. Something is on the rise, and we can't stop it unless Leaftail is gone."

"You want me to kill my own clanmate?" I hiss back at her.

"You don't need to." She flicks her ears and leaps off of me.

"No!" I snarl, and leap up after her, racing across the turf towards the direction she disappeared to. Then, I stop, seeing Leaftail, her pelt pressed against Bearclaw as they fight side by side. The white shecat is on the opposite side of the pair, crouching down. Maybe she should go. Maybe it would be better, so that she could stop hogging Bearclaw as if he were her own mate. But should I stop the cat? Or let her go?•
I was suddenly hit by a cat running from its attacker. It takes me a second to realize who the cat was. Falconwing.
"Falconwing what are you doing???" I yell at him.
Before he has a chance to say anything back we hear tiny high pitch shrieks as we realize there are kits somewhere lost in the battle. The white she-cat suddenly runs from where she was fighting Bearclaw and Leaftail to a nearby bush where a enemy cat was scouting. There was a terrifying shriek then silence.
"Cloudclan retreat a voice yells one by one cats start leaving snarling at all the darkclan cats. All the remaining cats start going towards the bush. Icepool can't believe her eyes at which she saw next.
