Hellooooooooooo... This chapter may be the normal size even though I got lots of reviews. I'd say about 700-1500 words. I have used all my free time to catch up on my work. :D My friend has this dare from her parents that if she gets no more late work for the rest of the year, she'll get $150!
Thanks to:
Oci Oceana- honest reviewing, although I felt a little disappointed when I read it

Anonymous- descriptive review
Skyfeather-Of-BirdClan- BFF and new member!
Russetfur smelled the fresh air of StarClan, oh how she missed Blackstar. She froze, baring her teeth. She heard something! Her red fur twitched as she heard a twig crack, she walked toward the sound, unsheathing her claws. She gritted her teeth, narrowed her eyes and jumped. Claws shredded her pelt, who is that? She jumped away but was immediately pulled back. She saw a scarred, dark brown tom. His bright amber eyes shined with ambition.
"No... No... No, it can't be! Go back to the Dark Forest!" She screeched.
"Too late! I was the only one strong enough to get through the barrier. Their clawing away at the barrier right now," He mewed, grinning and showing is old yellow fangs.
"I'll spare your life... But the next cat I see, will be crowfood!" He hissed.
"Are you sparing my life because we were both in ShadowClan?" She accused, stepping forward.
"Maybe. Maybe not." He mewed grimly.
She jumped onto his back clawing open his scars that began to heal.
"You really think you can beat me?" He meowed, "I killed my own-" Meowr!
That was him as Russetfur shredded his ears.
He quickly rolled over onto his backside, tricking Russetfur to jump onto him. Then he quickly hopped up, biting into her throat. She choked. All fell silent; except the laughter of the toms snicker. Then something strange happened; he bent down and laid next to the she-cat, purring.
"Oh how I wished to be with you," He sadly mewed,
"but I had to fulfill... My other dreams..." He mewed.
"Oh, Russetfur!" He mewed, "how foolish I was to kill you!"
"But something big is happening, and no one can intervene, if you were to join us, " He chuckled, "It would be great..." He finished...
Little did he know, Russetfur was still alive, listening. She threw him off her back, it now having a couple of gashes.
"You're alive!" He exclaimed, surprised.
"Yes..." She mewed, backing away before he could lick the scar on her cheek.
"You heard me then! C'mon, follow me to the Dark Forest, I'll tell you all about the plans that the Dark Forest is planning!" He happily meowed.
"No!" Russetfur hissed.
"What? You heard what I said! You must come! O-o-or... Or.." He mewed, unfinished.
"Or what?" Russetfur challenged.
She wasn't answered, before she knew it, the air was knocked out of her. The tom bit into her scruff and threw her into a tree. He slowly padded towards Russetfur, gritting his teeth.
"You don't have to do this! Br-" Meeeeeeeooooooooow!
Russetfur licked her paw, and on her shoulder itched, and had a bit of pain. She bit down on her shoulder, and a tick hopped off. There's not supposed to be ticks in StarClan! She looked down at the Clans, not seeing it clearly, she squinted. There she saw ShadowClan, but no Blackstar. Where is he? He shouldn't be hunting out in this weather! Russetfur laid down on the ground, trying to take a quick nap.
"Welcome, Russetfur..." An old she-cat croaked.
"Oh, uh what? Shadow? I-i-is that you?" Russetfur managed.
"Yes, it is but Russet-"
"What was it like back then? Was it dry, or was it wet?" Russetfur queried, curiosity gleaming in her eyes.
"Rus-"
"Was there many cats?" Russetfur interrupted again.
"Be quiet!" Shadow screeched.
"O-O-Okay.." Russetfur mewed.
"Something is coming to the Clans. It is not natural. Four must become six. Or else four will become one. A clan must pass through their normal borders," Shadow began to began to fade away.
"Wait! I have so many questions!" Russetfur squealed.
"I must leave, for I have told you the future," Shadow mewed once before she completely disappeared.
"You haven't told me it clear enough!" Russetfur mewed, leaping towards the disappearing figure.
"Yes I have, you just have to understand it."
"But I don't!" Russetfur screamed.
A sudden sound rang out in the distance, it was a sound no cat would be foregetting. It didn't stop, it kept on. Riiiiiiiiing There was a moment of silence, and it was over. A sound was approaching Russetfur, no ordinary sound, a cat sound! The sound grew closer, Russetfur unsheathed her claws. A lump grew in her throat, she would rather die then bare the suspense. Suddenly a white tom with jet black paws leaped out of the shadows. There was a silence, and love filled both of their eyes,
"Blackstar!" Russetfur meowed, surprised.
"Russetfur, I dreamed of this day," Blackstar mewed, approaching Russetfur.
"Who hasn't?" Russetfur teased.
Blackstar laughed, and licked Russetfur's forehead. To Russetfur, she almost missed the days that they kept their relationship a secret, sometimes it felt like they didn't have a relationship, thats why it felt nice when he mentioned it. She felt him push her down onto the ground, biting onto my scruff.
Is he doing what I think he's doing? Was all Russetfur could think.
Can you guess who that tom in the first section was?
