Ashley belongs to me, and if you have a warrior you would like me to add, just leave a comment below! And tell me what you think of it so far! Enjoy!

I sat outside for my warrior vigil. It was dawn, so I decided to go to warriors' den for some rest, before a yowl sounded about twenty fox lengths away from camp.

Strawberrypaw, Lionpaw, and Hollypaw, came stumbling out of the apprentice den. "Are we crazy, or did we just hear a cat yowl?!" Strawberrypaw asked.

"You're not crazy." I hissed, lashing my tail, as Windclan cats came clambering through the entrance.

Firestar came out of his den in time to see them leave. "Brambleclaw!" he called out, as cats started coming out of their dens.

"Yes, Firestar?!" my former mentor called up to him.

"Brambleclaw, I need you to gather, Ashfur, Tenderheart, Strawberrypaw, Lionpaw, Brightheart, Ferncloud, Thornclaw, Honeyfern, and Squirrelflight! I will gather the rest!"

"Oh... Great... The whore is coming..." I whispered , half to myself, half to Ashfur.

We ran out of camp, Brambleclaw's patrol went south, while Firestar's went north.

We came to a clearing, when a she~cat jumped on me. I quickly threw her off. Ashfur flung her across the clearing. This she~cat, incredibly familiar." Bugg off!" I sneered.

"How 'bout you do so yourself!" she snarled in a French accent."This is Windclan territory now!"

I then realized, it was Ashley. One of my warrior OC's. I could tell it was her my the scars on her face, and the blue diamond studded collar. She raised her head, the collar gleamed, as did her teeth, and she yowled. "WINDCLAN! RIVERCLAN! ATTACK!"

Warriors burst from bushes. A huge Windclan warrior jumped onto Strawberrypaw, but she quickly threw him off. Me and Ashfur both barreled into a Riverclan apprentice. Ashfoot clawed Brambleclaw's ear, quickly nicked his nose, and raked his side. "BRAMBLECLAW!" the deputy looked up. "Me and Ashfur are going to Shadowclan for help!"

He quickly nodded, and went back to pummeling his opponent. Me and Ashfur raced toward the border, the screeches of fighting cats, fading.

"This isn't a battle!" Ashfur cried out. "This is WAR!"

I looked ahead of us, not paying any attention to the hysterical tom. Half-way past the border we met, Hollypaw. All of us raced to the camp, and when a barrier came into view, I jumped onto a tree, climbed up, and jumped over the barrier, landing on the other side. I could feel the adrenaline coursing through my body.

Blackstar stood up immediately. "What is the meaning of this?!" he snapped.

"Shut it fox-breath!" I growled, feeling so alive."Russetfur! Gather a patrol, and come with me! Tawnypelt will gather another! Prepare for battle..."

Russetfur opened her mouth to argue, but Ashfur knew me well. He shook his head, and mouthed "Don't argue with her..." She closed her muzzle. She grabbed ten cats, and Tawnypelt grabbed another ten.

"Tawnypelt! You follow Hollypaw." I said. She nodded and followed the black apprentice."Let's go!"

Me, Ashfur, and the Shadowclan patrol raced to the sound of the fighting cats. We burst into the clearing, and I immediately jumped onto some cat who had Honeyfern pinned down.

The sky began to darken. "THE SUN IS DISAPPEARING! STARCLAN MUST BE ANGRY WITH US!" Nightcloud yowled, running off.

"WINDCLAN! RIVERCLAN! RETREAT!" Ashfoot yowled, running in the same direction as Nightcloud.

Everyone ran off, all except me and Strawberrypaw. We sat down contently, with our tails wrapped over our paws, and watched the sky. As soon as everyone fled, I looked at Strawberrypaw, who was drenched in blood. I blinked and the blood was all gone exept for the blood covering her paws.

"St-Strawberrypaw?" I gulped. "Did you kill anyone?"

"Nah! I just injured someone really badly." she said, "You know. That one psycopath that jumped on your back."

"Is she still here?" I asked.

"Yeah. Over there." she said pointing with her tail to a body, that was barely moving.

"ASHLEY!" I howled, running over to the she~cat. "Don't worry! I can get you back to my camp! You're gonna be okay!" but I wasn't all that sure about it.
