Chapter 25
"Stand down Shadestar, we have more warriors then you, you have already lost!" Grasseyes called down to the black leader from the grassy hill in MeadowClan territory. Shadestar smiled at him, his green eyes studying the grey tabby tom like prey.
"Where is Flowerstar? Surely she would be out on a lovely sunrise like this?" He called back looking at the blue sky, not a cloud was in sight. Bird song filled the meadow, all was peaceful, for now. Grasseyes flinched slightly and cast a side ways glance to Mudpelt who's hard gaze was on Shadestar.
"She is still unwell" Grasseyes answered, the DarkClan warriors laughed. Shadestar raised his tail for silence, the laughs immediately stopped.
"So while your leader is dying your stealing territory without her knowing? Not very loyal" Shadestar sneered. Grasseyes narrowed his green eyes at him.
"That's something coming from a DarkClan cat! Where is Lightningfrost your so called loyal warrior?" Grasseye spat. Shadestar smiled at him, his clan mates fur bristled.
"She left on her own accord, she will be back" Shadestar said calmly. Grasseyes laughed.
"How could you be-" he was cut short.
"Were not missing anything are we?" A voice said, Shadestar turned his head to see Honeystar flanked by Adderfang. Honeystar smiled at the two toms from the small hill she stood on with Adderfang. Honeystar flicked her light brown tail, cats emerged from behind the hill. There wasn't many of them only, Birdwing, Dirtpelt, Frogleap, Puddlepaw and Reedpaw. Shadestar smiled, he knew he had won this battle.
"What was the point Honeystar? Our warriors outnumber yours!" Grasseyes called at her. The brown pelted leader smiled, she said nothing. Shadestar knew that Honeystar was going to wait for the last possible moment to strike to make sure she won, by picking off the injured warriors. The dark leader turned to see MeadowClan pelting towards him, he raised his tail and sent his warriors into battle.

Nighthawk opened her grey eyes stiffly, she had a slight headache. She let out a stifled yawn and flexed her paws before standing up. She scratched her ear with her hind paw. Then her grey eyes narrowed, the clan seemed to quiet. She poked her head out of her den. Adderfang wasn't at his normal spot by the fresh kill pile, Birdwing wasn't perched on her rock. She knew something wasn't right. Nighthawk parted her jaws to taste the air, the scent of her clan mates were stale. She angled her ears towards the forest, then she heard a cat screech. Her grey blue eyes widened, she charged through the camp and bounded into the lake.
By the time she had swam onto the rocky shore her legs ached. She froze as she heard paws thunder towards her, she turned to see Treewish standing there, his green eyes wide. He had a few cuts on his pelt.
"The clans are fighting! Come quick!" He said, she bounded after the brown tabby tom who had already charged off. He seemed to be leading her to MeadowClan territory. The screeching of cats grew louder, soon she could see what she was dreading. She stood on a small hill panting and looking down, MeadowClan were fighting DarkClan. She could see Snowfeather wrestling with Silverwing, Thistlehawk and Smokestorm were fighting Beesting and Mudpelt. She couldn't tell the other cats apart from the mass of fur and blood. She cast a worried glance to Treewish.
"What do we do?" She whispered to him, he closed his eyes for a brief moment then opened them.
"We tell them about the foxes" he said. Nighthawk bounded down the hill, then she saw what she feared, Grasseyes and Shadestar were about to fight. If Shadestar pinned Grasseyes down she knew Shadestar would kill him. She ran towards them and dodged the claws that flew past her.
"Stop!" She shouted, but Grasseyes had already leapt forward and landed on Nighthawk, claws first.
"NO!" A voice screeched, the fighting stopped and all heads turned towards the hill, Treewish still stood there. He sprinted down to her as she laid on the floor. He pushed Grasseyes off her. He crouched down next to her and buried his nose in her black fur.
"I'm fine you stupid fur ball" she laughed quietly, his eyes lit up and he licked her ear.
"What's going on?!" Grasseyes bellowed, Treewish stood up and narrowed his eyes at his deputy.
"No cat is crossing our borders! Its foxes! They are stealing our prey and getting ready for a battle!" He shouted. Cats gasped and starting talking.
"How can you be so sure?" Silverwing stated, cats nodded in agreement with her, her litter mate Beesting stood next to her and mumbled something in her ear.
"There is fox scent everywhere! We need to come together and fight them!" Treewish hissed. Shadestar rested his tail on his shoulder.
"I believe you and Nighthawk" he said, Treewish smiled and licked his shoulder to show respect. Nighthawk smiled her thanks$
"Thankyou, and you Grasseyes?" Treewish asked, Grasseyes cast a look to Mudpelt who nodded.
"Fine we will fight with you against the foxes" he said stubbornly. Nighthawk stood up and almost fell over, Treewish helped balance her. She looked up at him, his green eyes full of an emotion she couldn't work out. She smiled and licked his cheek. He started to purr.
"What's going on?" Honeystar said storming down the hill, StreamClan warriors followed close behind.
"MeadowClan and DarkClan are going to fight against the foxes, are you?" Nighthawk mewed. Honeystar seemed almost taken back but then thought about it. Adderfang stepped forward.
"We shall" he said and cast a look to Honeystar who nodded.
"We shall hold a meeting here at sunrise" Shadestar said, he dipped his head and walked off, his warriors followed. Sunsky and Snowfeather smiled at Nighthawk who smiled back. Nighthawk had always gotten along with the two DarkClan she-cats. The other leaders did the same, soon it was only Nighthawk and Treewish left.
"Treewish thankyou for what you did" Nighthawk said, he smiled down at her.
"Anything for you" he purred, Nighthawk nuzzled his shoulder, he nuzzled her back.
The two cats laid there, the moon was raising into the sky. The tabby tom moved closed to her, their fur brushed. She looked at him, her eyes reflecting the moon light. He entwined his tail with hers and brushed her cheek with his.
"I love you Nighthawk" he whispered in her ear, it sent shivers down her spine. She moved closer into him.
"I love you to Treewish" she said lovingly back. The two cats laid there under the moon light. All now seemed peaceful to Nighthawk, Dirtpelt seemed to be a distance memory.
