Yay! Chapter FOUR
Whispshadow glanced at his new nest. It was near the center of the den, since Whispshadow was a bit older than some warriors. It had feathers and moss and was very soft to touch. "Nice job." A tortoiseshell she-cat with blue eyes commented as she waved her tail.

"My name is Poppyfrost."

Whispshadow didn't really know her. He only saw her once, with a short tailed tom, both grooming each-other the day before. Suddenly, a black tom with a brown chest walked in. "Bramblestar is calling a meeting! Some warrior brought back a cat!" The tom yowled as Whispshadow walked out, Poppyfrost on his heels.

Whispshadow's jaw dropped when he saw Clawswipe, covered in blood, lying in the clearing. Sootspring was with him, the tom barely shaken up. Clawswipe was out of breath and his eyes with closed. Whispshadow walked over as he asked, "What in Starclan's name happend?"

Sootspring heaved in as he mewed, "We saw a she-cat on the border. I told Clawswipe to stay away, but he attacked her. I thought he killed her, but she's alive and walking about." Clawswipe began to stand up. His blue eyes where rolling as he mewed, "But she was tresspassing. She threatened us before I attack. I'm not hurt, this is her blood." Whispshadow's anger began to recide after Clawswipe explained what happened. "Why are you two out of breath?"

"We dragged her all the way back here! She's not exactly light!" Sootspring snorted as he began to growl. Jayfeather had emerged from his den, a grey and white she-cat leaning on him, her eyes closed tightly. She had two deep wounds on both shoulders and she limped on one of her front paws. Bramblestar helped Jayfeather put the she-cat down on a rock, so she could explain.

"Hello." Bramblestar raised his tail to silence his clan as he spoke softly to the she-cat. Her fur was standing on end as she growled, "Where am I?" Her aqua eyes where glazed with fear as Bramblestar smiled. "Calm down, she-cat. We mean you no harm, well. Most of us don't." Bramblestar spoke flatly and glared at Clawswipe, who sank in his paws in embarrassment.

The she-cat glanced around as she relaxed slightly at some of the cats looking at her, their eyes understanding. "What is your name?" Bramblestar broke the silence as the she-cat stood up. She wobbled a bit as she annouced proudly, "Fallen Shard."

"Well, Fallen Shard. Why are you here?"

"I-I-I-I was drawn here by a cat of starlight." Fallen Shard meowed as the cats began to murmer quietly. The ninth cat! Whispshadow thought suddenly as he saw Jayfeather's jaws drop.

"Well, I have no choice to keep you prisinor." Bramblestar meowed over the cats as Fallen Shard began to quake in anger. "Why?"

"You attacked one of my cats. We cannot trust you..." Bramblestar trailed off as he saw Leafpool and Jayfeather, starring at him. "We will make you a nest under that tree over there. Bumblestripe, Hazeltail and Ambershine, you'll guard her tonight, just to be safe." Bramblestar meowed as three cats began to gather up some spare moss for Fallen Shard. Fallen Shard turned to Bramblestar. "You may eat something. I'll also have Jayfeather keep an eye on you. If your injuries hurt in the night, get Spiderleg, Hazeltail or Ambershine to take you to Jayfeather." Bramblestar explained as his amber eyes flickered in the light. Fallen Shard dipped her head and meowed, "Thank you."

Bramblestar followed Fallen Shard to the fresh-kill pile. Squirrelflight began to organize more hunting patrols. "Toadstep, take Fernpaw, Slatefoot, Molewhisker and Whispshadow hunting." Squirrelflight meowed as a black and white tom gathered up a dark brown she-cat, a brown and cream tom, and a big dark brown tom. Whispshadow walked over as Toadstep's black and white pelt seemed to fluff out. "Hello!" the big dark brown tom, Fernpaw, meowed loudly as Whispshadow looked at them. "Hello." The dark brown she-cat meowed as her amber eyes turned warm. "I'm Slatefoot." The cats followed Toadstep out of camp as Whispshadow heard something rumble far off.

The rumbling was getting louder as dark green clouds covered the sky. A feirce wind ruffled Whispshadow's pelt as he tried to carry the robin he held. The wind had knocked Slatefoot to the ground, as Toadstep's pelt wasn't settling. Rain and hail began to fall to the ground as lighting cracked over head. "RUN!" Molewhisker yowled as he dropped his mouse as his brown and cream pelt vanished under some brambles. The wind roared in Whispshadow's ears as he saw camp come into view but he smelt fear. Bramblestar was watching in horror as many dens where blowing over, as he huddled all kits and cats around his den. Suddenly, Toadstep paused. A large cloud of swirling blackness loomed near camp, heading strait for the camp. "RUN!" Whispshadow tried to call out but he was knocked to the ground as the cloud engulfed everything. Whispshadow's vision went black.

Whispshadow awoke to coughing and screaming of his clan mates. His eyes were crusted with dust as he felt something on his back. He saw a lump of cream fur on him, and made out a dead cat. He tried to pull away but the dead weight of the cat held him down. Whispshadow wheezed as he heard some cat yowl, "Someone's alive!" He reconized Bramblestar's wheeze as he mewed, "I'm alive! It's Whispshadow! I'm stuck!" Suddenly, a ginger cat with white paws pushed the dead cat off Whispshadow. Whispshadow felt his lungs inhale dust as the tom helped him up. He smelt diffrent, like dust and gorse as he meowed, "I'm Weaselfur from WindClan."

Whispshadow saw more dead cats ahead, but his heart broke when he saw the old brown tabby elder, lying mointenless in the dirt. Two young cats, not from ThunderClan, where both torn in shreds, sticks jabbing their sides, blood covering their pelts and sticks everywhere. Every cat he passed was either just a pile of fur and bones, or a bloody mess. Many cats stood, eyes glazed with terror and dust. Whispshadow relaxed as he saw Clawswipe and Sootspring helping Goldenpaw and Robinkit walk over to Dashpaw and Gulchkit. Jayfeather was licking Softkit, who was a bit bloody. She was rasping and breathing quietly.

"The Moor-ripper killed Onestar, Harespring, Gorsetail, Sedgewhisker, Leaftail, Furzepelt, Crowfeather and Whitetail in WindClan, but ThunderClan lost Leafpool, Purdy, Berrynose, Molewhisker, Dewclaw, Birchfall, Brackenfur, and Rosepetal..." Bramblestar meowed saddly as he flicked his tail. Lionblaze had a broken leg, along with Fallen Shard and Softkit, while many others where simply wheezing and bleeding. ThunderClan wouldn't recover that easily...

Death...
