Chapter One
Raggedstar was sitting in a bush waiting for a Windclan cat to pass by so that he could jump out and tackle them to the ground. As he waited he couldn't help think about Yellowfang and a pang of longing and loss flooding him. 'If only her destiny wasn't to be a medicine cat, then we would've been able to be together he thought sadly flicking her ears when he heard a noise behind him and he spun around bristling when he saw that is was his son who also was his deputy.
"Raggedstar it's time for you to join Starclan, and for me to lead Shadowclan, you are weak," Brokentail snarled and leapt towards his his eyes blazing.
Raggedstar felt fear flood through him remembering how Yellowfang had tried to convince him nit to make Brokentail deputy. 'Then that means I can'least him be leader, i won't let him lead my clan to destruction,' he thought gasping when his sons claws pierced his throat and he started to convulse and horror filled him as he realized that he was loosing all nine of his lives at once. Soon he was on his last life, but he thought about Yellowfang and all the good time that had, had together drawing strength from those memories. '"I will not let you destroy my clan," he rasped weakly and used the last of his strength to raise his paw and rake it across his soons throat feeling himself lose his last life as Brokentail crumbled to the ground next to him. When he woke up he found himself in Starclan and was greeting by every Starclan cat that he had ever knewm that had died.
Yellowfangs POV
Yellowfang was sorting herbs when she suddenly felt like something was wrong and she stopped realizing that she was feeling the pain of one or two of her clan mates. She remembered how everyone had gone to fight Windclan and bristled. Still bristling she grabbed some herbs and raced out of camp. When she reached the battle she was horrified to see the motionless bodies of Raggedstar and Brokentail and raced over to them her heart pounding thinking that some Windclan cat had killed them, but when she reached their bodies dread filled heee when she realized that they had killed each other. She could already picture what had happened, Brokentail had probably attacked his father digging his claws Raggedstars throat and Raggedstar had probably used the last of his strength to kill him.
She felt greif pierce her heart and she collapsed beside the tom she had once called her mate and her son. She buried her muzzle into Raggedstars fur before standing up and went to stop the fight. After her clan mates had stopped fighting she broke the news to them that both Raggedstar and Brokentail were dead but didn't tell them how they had died. "And now I will go off to the moonstone to ask Starclan who should lead Shadowclan, Runningnose shall remain here, and attend to your wounds," she meowed sadly taking a deep breath. 'Oh, Raggedstar why did you have to die?' she asked herself before heading out of camp to go to the moonstone.
