Miststar, halted, ears and eyes alert.

Her green eyes scanned the surrounding landscape.

Her gaze penetrated the shadows, seeing everything.

Miststar quickly whipped around, but she was too late, a cat leaped upon her.

''Yo-you are the ca-cat who was tal-talking to Shadowwhi-shadowwhisper.....why ar-are you doi-doing this?'' Miststar choked out as the cat held her paw firmly upon Miststar's throat.

''I am Moonstar, or Featherfrost,'' She spat out the second name, ''I am leader of ThunderClan, I had an omen from StarClan to clear the mist, and if I am not mistaken, you are leader of WhisperClan, you are Miststar.''

Miststar's eye's were unfocused as she gasped for breath, ''Uh....I-I am Mi-miststar of Whis-whisperClan....wh-what do yo-you want?'' She rasped.

Moonstar leaned forward, fangs glinting dangerously, ''I want your blood.'' 

Miststar gasped and heaved upward, pushing Moonstar out of the way, ''I am Miststar, and you will never defeat me.''

Moonstar slid to a stop, fur covered in mud, ''I am Moonstar, and I will defeat you.''

Moonstar lunged forward, fore-legs outstretched, claws unsheathed, eyes full of malice.

Miststar dodged and raked her claws down Moonstar's side, drawing blood.

Moonstar yowled in pain. A landed awkardly on the grass, flanks heaving. Moonstar turned to Miststar, eyes full of hatred, ''It is StarClan's will that you perish, and if it is StarClan's will, it is my will as well.''

Miststar watched as Moonstar creeped towards her, ''I don't know what StarClan you saw, but my StarClan would never ask to kill another cat.''

Moonstar smiled, ''Goodbye Miststar, nice meeting you.''

Lightningleaf's light yellow, brown fur glimmered as he watched ThunderClan prepare for battle.

Windwhisker hurriedly handed out strength herbs, and cats collected them, face grimacing in disgust at the bitter taste of the herbs.

Lightningleaf glanced at the pitifully low fresh kill pile. Maybe I should go on a hunting patrol....no. I can't.....The other Clans might attack. Unsureness nearly drove all the cat's around Lightningleaf mad, Soon the other clans will strike, and I don't know if ThunderClan will survive. 

The truth in what he had just thought hit Lighningleaf, Oh, StarClan, help us.

*********************************************************************************************************************

Miststar hissed at Moonstar, as Moonstar leaped at her. Miststar dodged everytime. 

The will to save her clan drove her onward, gave her hope, and made her strive to live.

Her claws met Moonstar's and they locked together, two strengths pushing against eachother.

Miststar shoved Moonstar out the way and Moonstar landed on her side, puffing with every breath.

Miststar took this chance and pinned Moonstar down with her paw, ''Moonstar, I am giving you a choice. Leave and I will spare you. Attack and I will kill you. Choose.''

*********************************************************************************************************************

Moonstar spat in disgust, and pushed upward breaking from Miststar's grip. ''You are lucky this time Miststar,'' She spat out the word, ''I will leave, but watch your back Miststar, because I will attack when you. Least. Expect. It.''

Miststar smiled and backed away, ''Goodbye Moonstar, and hopefully I won't see you again.''

Moonstar turned tail and fled, heading towards the setting sun in the distance, where WhisperClan lay stranded, trapped, where the persecution was about to begin.

*********************************************************************************************************************

Miststar, thinks she's so great! Well, she's not! She is just a little cat, and I will kill her and no body else.... Fangstar thought. Everything is going according to plan.....everything......
