The clans were under attack. Big, rouge cats were attacking. They seemed to come from nowhere, but how did they even get there?
Cinderstorm took a step back, trying to hide herself, but a cat saw her and starting racing towards her. She shrieked in alarm, and slashed him across the face with her claws.
The wound started bleeding, and the tom only got in raged. He jumped on her, and scratched her cheek. Cinderstorm attempted to push him on, but he was already aiming for the final blow.
Just when he was about to strike, a black blur pushed him off, and Cinderstorm turned to see Howler from ShadowClan. My father.
"Run!" He yowled, and Cinderstorm didn't think twice. She ran, hiding in bush.
Yes, it made her a coward. But she needed to be able to help injured cats once this was all over. So would Fallowstripe. Oh no. Fallowstripe.
"Where is she?" Whispered Cinderstorm, praying her former mentor was safe.
Cats were fighting, blood everywhere, cats howling with pain. Cinderstorm felt tears escape her eyes when she even saw dead cats. Cats she used to know.
Oh StarClan, please save us. The grey she-cat prayed silently to her ancestors, only hoping they would listen as help them through it.
Finally, she couldn't stand it anymore. She had to help them. She jumped out of the bush, racing towards the nearest rouge.
The cat being attacking by the rouge was a cat from RiverClan, Cinderstorm could tell by the fishy smell.
The medicine cat leapt onto the rouge's back, biting as hard as she could. Cinderstorm tasted blood, and then the cat threw her off.
The large cat turned around and growled at her, ready to attack. But then the RiverClan cat clawed him instead, driving him away from Cinderstorm.
"Thanks for helping me." The she-cat said as Cinderstorm joined her in helping fight off the cat.
"No problem. I'm Cinderstorm. Nice to meet you." Cinderstorm grunted, dodging a blow from the rouge.
"I'm Birchheart. Nice to- meet you." Butchery growled as the rouge clawed her ear.
The two she-cats finally drove off the rouge, and hardly had time to catch their breath before another attacked them. This one was bigger then the other, and another cat joined the rouge by attacking the she-cat from behind.
Suddenly another she-cat was besides them, helping them fight off the two rouges. Cinderstorm recognized her as Sandflight, a SkyClan warrior.
The battle lasted for what seemed like forever, until suddenly the fighting stopped. The rouges stood still, then one of them yelled for a retreat.
Cinderstorm wondered why this suddenly happened, and then she collapsed form the fight. She hadn't even noticed how bad she was bleeding. Suddenly everything went black.
The medicine cat woke up what seemed like seconds later, the blood covered island silent.
Crowheart was beside her, covered in wounds, all bleeding. "Why did they retreat?" Cinderstorm asked him.
"Emeraldstar killed their leader. Without him, they didn't know what to do and ran off." Crowheart replied, his gaze downwards.
"Who died?" Cinderstorm asked, pressing against her brother. She didn't want to say goodbye to anyone she knew, but she knew at least a couple cats would be gone.
"From SkyClan, we lost Gorseheart, Leopardleap, Breezetail, and Fernpaw. From RiverClan, Streamstar lost a life, Sunpaw, Flametail, Codpaw, and Pondheart. From WindClan, Vinepaw, Adderleaf, Snakepaw, Tallpaw, and Tinykit. From ShadowClan, Emeraldstar lost a life, Shadepaw, Darkheart, Grasskit, Howler. From ThunderClan, Horsetail, Shallowleaf, Tigershade, Fallowstripe, Leafpaw, and Highstar Lost his last life."
Cinderstorm was devastated that so many cats were gone. She didn't know what to say. "I-I'm going to go help some injured cats." She stammered, stumbling off to find cats to help.
It would help get her mind off things. She didn't want to say goodbye to so many cats. She lost her mentor, her leader, her friends. She didn't know what to do.
What would happen to the clans now?
