Prologue:

"Scourge? What are you doing here?" a light silver she cat asked the small black tom with one white paw.

"Waterfur. Tigerstar has offered me a part of the forest if BloodClan stands along side TigerClan in convincing ThunderClan and WindClan." He said, a little happy.

"Oh! That's great!" said the silver she cat, Waterfur.

"Yes, yes it is." He said, back to his normal, mad self.

The forest was silent now as Waterfur left with the rest of TigerClan, and BloodClan, to 'convince' ThinderClan and WindClan to join TigerClan. She left her kit behind at camp. Splashkit, a blue tabby she cat. Lucky for every one, she looked nothing like her father, Scourge, who was the only one that knew that he was the father.

But, unfortunatley, she had his temper, and strength. Cats in the Clan seemed to stare at her ever since Scourge visited camp once, to speak to Tigerstar and Leopardstar. They seemed to be making connections, but no one ever said anything to Waterfur about it. Now, they were at fourtrees.

"Firestar. Tallstar. You are fools not to join TigerClan!" Tigerstar hissed.

"No, they know what's right!" Waterfur accidently screamed out loud.

Every one stared at her, shocked, as well as herself. Tigerstar's fur bristled. His long, curved claws unsheathed, and he snarled.

"What?" He snarled out through his clenched teeth.

She opened her mouth to answer, but never got the chance. Tigerstar leaped at her, slicing her neck down to her stomach with his long claws. She squeaked, falling to the ground, near dead. She blacked out, although she could still hear. She heard a small snarl from Scourge, then him saying there would be no battle today. Then she heard fur ripping, and felt blood, not hers, lapping around her.

She heard shocked yowls from around the clearing, atleast her death was avenged. She heard all cats running away. One dragged her away, she could feel him tugging her fur towards the river. "Scourge?" She coughed it out.

"Yeah." he whispered in her ear.

"I'm dying, I-I know it. Just, take care of Splashkit." She choked out.

"Yeah, I will." he said, his voice breaking. Then she fell silent, and still.

The last thing she heard was an anguished yowl from Scourge.
