Prologue
A huge brown tabby tom stalked through the forest. Two smaller cats, both she-cats, followed him, looking distrested. One of the she-cats, the smallest, mewed, "There's no prey here, Bramblestripe. Let's go."
Bramblestripe shook his head, amber eyes narrowed. "There's something else," he hissed, "the scent of an intruder!"
The small calico who had spoken sniffed the air. Her fur bristled with excitement. "It's RainClan! I wanna fight!" She had never fought the vicous cats who dewled on the riversides, but she knew they were fierce and savage-unlike LeafClan, who were brave and far nobler.
"No," meowed the other she-cat, a slender gray tabby, pulling the young cat close with her tail. "We need-"
"Wait." The brown tabby interupted, stepping foward. "It's only Waterclaw and Ratbreath. Ripplesun, Darkheart, and Fishheart aren't here." The she-cat looked a little relieved, but it was clear she still thought the young apprentice shouldn't fight. After all, it would be the calico's first battle; only skilled warriors like Bramblestripe and the silver cat fought RainClan, even if it was dumb RainClan fleabags.
"Your first fight has to come sometime," meowed Bramblestripe, "She's seven moons, now, Grayfern. Spottedpaw can fight."
Grayfern frowned, but before she could reply, the leafClan patrol heard voices. "Ouch!" a cat with a deep voice complianed, " I stepped on a thron!"
"Shut up, Ratbreath!" spat an even deeper voice. "Do you want to get caught, fish-brain?"
"Apparently they do," Bramblestripe muttered scornfully. "They never were bright. Come on, let's find those RainClan thieves." Spottedpaw's golden eyes widened; the young tortioseshell, white, and cream apprentice was obviously anticipating defending her Clan's territory.
Bramblestripe led the way, his broad, powerful body pushed through the ferns and bushes. A plump black cat with fur that was so dark and glossy it looked wet even though it wasn't, was squeezing between two trees as if chasing a squirrel or rabbit that had already passed through; a narrow space that still even a muscular cat like Bramblestripe could easily pad through. The RainClan tom's low, buldging belly, turned huge from the endless fish in the river and streams, was not allowing him to pass. Not far away, a fat gray tom swaggered around as if padding into his camp, carried a squirrel and thrush. His yellow eyes shone with arrogance.
"Tresspassing thieves!" yowled Bramblestripe, springing foward.
The stocky RainClan cats glared at each other as if to say this is all your fault! Then the larger one, the sleek gray tom, stepped foward. "Got a problem with that?" he sneered, rasining his muzzle. The black tom sniggered, yellow eyes filled with contempt at LeafClan, as he squirmed out and next to his large Clanmate.
"yes," Bramblestripe snarled, angry at the RainClan cats' arrogance. "Attack!"
Both Waterclaw, the black tom, and Ratbreath, the gray warrior, looked shocked. Their confidence and scorn faded like mist on a hot greenleaf day. The LeafClan warriors surged foward. Spottedpaw followed Grayfern as her mentor went to attack Ratbreath. Yellow eyes wide with terror, the cowardly, fat tom scrambled away, his belly so low it brushed against the shorter grass. Ratbreath grabbed his prey.
"Oh,no, you don't!" growled Grayfern. She shot foward, and, confused but exciteded, Spottedpaw followed.
Waterclaw bared his teeth defiantly. Bramblestripe dodged the dark RainClan warrior's hefty blow and bit his paw while it flailed in the air. His overwieght opponet winced but split open Bramblestripe's nose with his other sharp claws. The tabby hissed and pulled back, his and Waterclaw's blood dripping from his muzzle. Bramblestripe readied himself to leap again.
Spottedpaw's legs slapped the earth as she jumped. Though her legs were still short, they held the leaping power of LeafClan, and she landed on Ratbreath's broad shoulders. Grayfern cut off the RainClan theif's path, her claws unsheathed and teeth bared.
"Drop the prey!" the gray tabby ordered sharply.
Ratbreath's yellow glare hardened. "Never!" he spat around the fur and feathers.
"It's not yours." Grayfern's commanding growl startled Spottedpaw; she had never seen her mentor so worked up. Then again, prey was becoming scarce; she wouldn't want a good amount of food to go to a RainClan prey-stealer.
"I caught it," he retorted, his mew filled with sneering contempt.
"It was on our territory!" protested Spottedpaw. Grayfern looked her int he eye; it was a clear message. Spottedpaw's claws slid out into Ratbreath's long, thick gray fur and Grayfern raked the RainClan tom's muzzle.
"Okay!" he cried. "You have it! We don't need your scrawny prey; we have fat versions of these and fish!" Ratbreath dropped the fresh-kill and raced away.
Spottedpaw and Grayfern shared a vicitorious glance, then sped through the forest to help Bramblestripe fend off Waterclaw.
Bramblestripe lunged for Waterclaw's hind leg. He grabbed it in his jaws and yanked the leg up, causing the RainClan warrior to fall dwon. Quick as the wind, Bramblestripe clawed his enemy's fat, fluffy belly. Rage blazed in Waterclaw's expresion and he flailed his claws. Pain amde the RainClan cat inaccurate. Two lithe shapes fell on Waterclaw as well.
"Your minnow-hearted Clanmate has run away," growled Grayfern, "Will you?"
"I'm not a coward!" spat Waterclaw. "I'll die fighting you if I must, but I won't be joining SunClan(the place a dead cat's spirit goes to) alone!"
"If you say so," meowed Bramblestripe slyly. He rasied a paw, claws glinting in the sunlight filtered from the trees above. Blood glistentened at the tip. Waterclaw looked terrified, and ran off, belly fur brushing the ground.
"That was very clever," Grayfern purred, licking blood off her now-matted gray tabby pelt. Spottedpaw's golden eyes were bright with the excitement of battle.
"Let's go home," Bramblestripe mewed, "Scarsun will want to know that RainClan stole our prey."
"Yeah, even though we totally beat them!" Spottedpaw chirped, dancing on her small white paws.
"They were stupid cowards," Bramblestripe scoffed. His mew hardened. "But there are horrible, vicious cats in RainClan, too. What if a dangerous cats steals our prey and we have to fight them?"
Spottedpaw frowned.
"So we have to be ready for strong, wily, bold RainClan cats to attack us," Grayfern explained, "come on, let's go home."
Night was falling in the forest. LeafClan cats finished sharing tongues and prey and one by one, going to sleep.
Yet one cat-a slender silver tabby-stayed awake. She had to speak with her leader. A giant golden brown tabby tom slid out from a thick bundle of brush . "Hello, Grayleaf," he meowed, bounding up to her.
Grayfern blinked at her leader. "This was the first time in moons that our enemies have dared to cause trouble," she began.
"But you won," Scarsun meowed. He licked a paw and drew it over a torn ear.
"So? What if they invade again? We lost prey this time, and it was hardly a fight." Grayfern pointed out sharply, narrowing her eyes. "Cats were injured. Warriors could die next time, Scarsun!"
Scarsun nodded. "You're right, but what can I do about it? There hasn't been enough trouble for an honorable leader to attack back. Besides, we don't have the warriors to raid RainClan. We barely have enough to defend ourselves from them!"
"Then we should get more cats," Grayfern lashed her tail, hardly thinking as she spat out the words.
"Are you suggesting we take in outsiders?" meowed Scarsun. He pricked his ears and his eyes lit up with intrest.
"I don't even know anymore!" Grayfern cried, turning and speeding off into her den.
Scarsun looked up. SunClan had droped into the earth like they did every night, but the sky was lit up with stars. Did SunClan wacth over the forest at night like they did at day? "Can you hear me, Willowfrost, Splashsun?" he whispered softly. "Are you still wacthing over LeafClan?"
