Warriors: Battle of the Elements ~Series 1 Book 3~

Chapter 19

Waterfly's P.O.V:

"Let's get back to camp." Waterfly glanced at the sky, "It's past sunset."

Silverstar nodded and stopped her winds. Stormflame diminished his flames and Clearlight stopped moving leaves around. They had spent the whole time after sunhigh practicing their powers.

Now they all knew how to use the basics of their powers. Waterfly was glad they had learned them so quickly, it was obvious there was something coming, why else would Starclan give them powers?

The four cats began to trudge home slowly. The sun had set behind the hills and the moon had risen. It was nearly full moon, the gathering would be in a quarter moon.

Once they neared camp, the sound of battling cats reached Waterfly's ears and she gasped, "Lightclan's being attacked!" She sped off for camp, closely followed by Clearlight, Silverstar and Stormflame.

They raced through the forest, tails streamijg behind them. Waterfly heard the sounds of screeching cata draw closer as they ran.

When they reached camp, the scent of Magiclan was overwhelming. Waterfly dived into camp and attacked the nearest Magiclan warrior. She used her powers to reach into his mind and grinned, she could tell what he was thinking therefore she knew his next move. She dodged every blow the tom launched at her and raked her claws down his side.

The tom hissed and retreated to the outskirts of the battle, Waterfly chose not to follow him and she ran to the medicine den. Inside, Nutwhisker fought bravely against a large tom. Waterfly launched herself at the tom and bowled him over. She nipped his chest and clawed his sides. Nutwhisker joined in and between the two of them, they chased the tom out.

Waterfly saw a curled up shape on a nest. She recognised Sandkit immediately. "How is she?" She asked Nutwhisker.

Her apprentice shook his head, "Bad."

"Oh no." Waterfly whispered.

Clearlight's P.O.V:

Clearlight shifted into a panther and pounced on the nearest cat. He easily crushed the cat under one paw and kicked out at another cat that attacked him.

Clearlight looked around at the fight. Now that the four of them had joined the fight, Lightclan easily had the upper paw.

He let the pinned cat go and watched as she raced away, tail streaming behind her. Clearlight grinned and looked around for the next attacker.

Silverstar's P.O.V:

Silverstar scanned the battling cats for Rabbitstar. After a short while, she found him watching the battle from the Hightree. "Rabbitstar!" She screeched. "What is the meaning of this?!"

The light brown tom grinned and yowled back, "Following your wishes!" He arched his back with a hiss, "You wanted a war, well come and get it!!"

Silverstar growled and climbed up the tree to where Rabbitstar stood on a branch. She placed herself at an angle below him so that the Magiclan leader couldn't reach her but she could him. She shot her paw up and snagged his pelt in her claws. She pulled him down and Rabbitstar lost his balance on the branch. He free-falled for a heartbeat before latching onto the bark of the Hightree just below Silverstar.

Silverstar could see that Rabbitstar had the advantage so she started climbing up the tree. It was easy to outrun Rabbitstar as he was not as comfortable in trees as Silverstar was.

She stopped climbing once she reached her den. Should she go in? It would be easier to fight by there was only one escape; she'd be trapping herself. But the more energy she used by running around the tree wouldn't help anything.
