It has been a moon since the incident with Whitepaw. ThunderClan was devastated when Blackpaw had told them. Lightpaw wanted to object, but the voice still echoed in her head. It was midnight, and Lightpaw was curled up in Whitepaw's regular spot. "I'll bet your happy I helped you get rid of that obsession with Whitepaw." Lightpaw turned to see Blackpaw looking at her. "No," she hissed. "I'm not." Blackpaw glared at Lightpaw. "We're almost warriors," Blackpaw went on. "You should really be thinking about a mate." Lightpaw glared. "No," she spat. "And if I did, it wouldn't be the likes of y-you liar and murderer!" Blackpaw glared. "Fine," he muttered. "But I won't rest till your mine!" And with that, Blackpaw lied down and fell asleep. Lightpaw sighed. She then looked up and whispered. "If you are in StarClan Whitepaw, please come to me soon. I miss you."

That morning, Lightpaw padded out, ignoring all the toms as she went and disappeared into the forest. After a while, Lightpaw came face to face with the river that Whitepaw drowned in. She lied down and wailed quietly.

Back at camp, Blackpaw was padding towards Lightningstar. "Ah, hello, Blackpaw. What can I do for you?" Lightingstar mewed. Blackpaw darkly said, "I would like you to come with me row quick. It won't be long." Lightningstar thought for a moment, then replied, "Okay, let's go." And with that, the two padded into the woods. After a while, Lightningstar asked, "What was it that you wanted?" Blackpaw glared and hissed, "This."

Lightningstar was bowled over and pinned to the ground. ThunderClan's leader to see his deputy, Nightmist. "Nightmist," he hissed. "What are you doing? Release me!" Nightmist leaned over and hissed in his leader's ear, "It's my turn to lead this Clan. I've kept track of your lives, and this is your last one." Nightmist then sank his teeth into Lightningstar's neck. This was Thunderstar's last life. "No," Lightningstar choked. "You...will never get away with this..." Nightmist snarled. "I already have." Lightningstar took one last gasp and lay still, and Blackpaw yowled with triumph. Nightmist glared at his kill and smiled. He was leader now. He was Nightstar.
