"Oceanclan!" A voice yowls, Autumn leaps awake, quickly unsheathing her claws. The red she-cat bounded out of camp to see her warriors and apprentices fighting  Oceanclan warriors. Spark tussling with a black and white warrior, Tumble and Squirrel battering a white warrior, Autumn quickly spotted Hollystar, OceanClan's leader. Autumn snarled and raced towards the pure red she-cat, pinning her, sinking her claws into Hollystar's sides.

Hollystar kicked Autumn off, both she-cats hopped to their paws, both leaping at each other. Autumn quickly ducked under Hollystar, slashing the she-cats belly. Hollystar quickly fell limp on the ground and Autumn let out a yowl, quickly dashing to Jump's side, guarding the nursery while her kits hide in their nest. Autumn helped Jump send two red and brown warriors running off, Autumn quickly sprinted off to her daughter's side, baring her teeth at bright cream tom-cat, lashing out at his muzzle, an inch from his face.

Autumn snarled, ducking from an attack from the tom, sweeping from his feet. Dandelion pinning the tom down, nipping his ear before letting him bound off outside of camp.

"Oceanclan retreat!" Hollystar called, quickly limping away. Oceanclan warrior's broke from the fighting and sprinted out of the camp. Autumn let out a yowl of triumph as Larch checked the warriors' wounds.

"Everyone's good!" She called over to Autumn, applying marigold to Spark's shoulder. Shadow approached Autumn, brushing her muzzle against his.

"Autumn, we need to talk." Shadow murmured in her ear, swiping his tounge over her nose.

"Alright, meet me in my den." She whispered back, pressing her nose to Shadow's. She watched the glossy, black tom pad off, she dipped her head to Larch before trailing after her mate.

"What do you need?" Autumn asked, settling down in her soft nest.

"It's about Hollystar." The black tom meowed, Autumn's eyes flickering with hesitation.

"What about her." Autumn growled softly, flicking her soft, red tail.

"Why didn't you kill her back there- in the fight," Shadow paused, meeting Autumn's bright green eyes. "You easily could've, she's on her last life..."

Autumn looked down at her paws, her ears drooping down.

"Shadow," Autumn looked at the exit of camp.

"Hollystar is my mother..." She meowed, meeting her mate's eyes.
