Prelude
Stoneclaw's POV
Stoneclaw padded confidently at Stoneclan's camp. It was Shadowclan's old one.
Everything was falling into place. The apprentices were already conversing together about ripping Echoclan cat bellies open and watching their guts spill out. It was his doing in a way. He promised the apprentices, nearly trained or just beginning, that if they won the upcoming battle all of them would be made warriors.
Stoneclaw had his doubts about how Tallpaw and Ripplepaw were going to perform, they were after all former Riverclan cats. He never trained them. The gray tom knew Rowanpaw and Ashpaw would do well, especially Rowanpaw, his own apprentice. From day one, Stoneclaw had taught the russet tom moves like the death bite and other maneuvers that would deceive his attacker.
His gaze flickered to his deputy, Raintail. Stoneclaw hoped to soon replace her with Rowanpaw. Yes, she was formerly Shadowclan, but she had many weak-points. When they were both apprentices, Raintail had often been his sparring partner. She was easily confused by fancy paw-work and she had a low pain tolerance; once saying that her vision was blurred by pain after Stoneclaw had merely nicked her ear on accident during a mock battle. She was truly pathetic. Why was she deputy? Raintail was a popular choice among all of the clans. The black she-cat was adored by everyone despite her many flaws in not just leadership, but in clan life all together. It was certain Raintail would die in the upcoming battle, probably first. And if the battle didn't get rid of her, then he had other ways of making her die.
Originally, Stoneclaw hadn't planned on joining with Riverclan. He wanted to join with Thunderclan to ensure that she stayed safe. She was the whole purpose of this war. But Thunderclan was his enemy. The kitty-pet loving code protecting clan was the sole reason why he couldn't have her. Stoneclaw had failed to persuade her to join Shadowclan.
If you had just said yes, then none of this would be necessary, Brightflame.
Brightflame's POV
Wind bit at Brightflame's long white fur, tickling her skin with sharp, cold air.
"I hate this." Leafcloud, Brightflame's sister muttered.
Brightflame sighed in agreement.
Ever since Echostar, the former leader of Windclan, had taken complete control over what was now Echoclan, both Windclan and Thunderclan lived on the moorland. Although we were supposed to work together, each clan seemed to take a half of the camp. Echostar got along okay with Ryeheart, Thunderclan's deputy and Brightflame's daughter.
Brightflame took great pride in Ryeheart. She had Ryeheart fairly early on, only about a moon or two after becoming a warrior. Her brother, Nightkit, and her sister, Thrushpaw, had all died prematurely. Her father? Well… Brightflame never got too deep into that. He was a mistake. She told herself over and over again. That's what happened when cats from different clans got too close, especially toms and she-cats. Brightflame had been foolish to get so close to an ambitious tom like him, from Shadowclan nonetheless. She had covered her tracks well, convincing Grayclaw to say he was the father. Next to Leafcloud, Grayclaw had been a close friend, and never minded saying his daughter was Thunderclan deputy.
"I'm going to take Risingpaw out for some training." Brightflame said.
Leafcloud rolled her eyes, "you're being paranoid, Brightflame. Shadowclan and Riverclan aren't going to attack us. That's the whole reason we're up here, so they can't hide. Besides, I'm sure they're not going to attack us."
"What about at the gathering? They said before the next gathering they would find us no matter where we hide and kill us one-by-one until we agree to join Stoneclan." Brightflame said sharply, giving her sister a curt glare before going to find Risingpaw.
Leafcloud sighed and watched her sister pad away from her.
