Breezefeather

The tabby padded out of camp to follow the dark ginger tabby tom. Quietly she stayed downwind from her clan mate. "What is he doing", she thought to herself. She saw the tom looking back as if he were scared or something.

"Hey what are you doing?" Breezefeather whipped around.

"Bumbleheart what are you doing here?"

"I came to see if you're alright. Anyway why did y-", looking back the tom had gone.

"Bumbleheart! You made me lose him!"

"Who's him?"

"Ugh…I was following Flamefoot because, he was acting strange!" Breezefeather saw a hurt expressions form on his face.

"Look Bumbleheart I'm sorry. I've just been…jumpy lately. It's nothing against you though ok."

"Fine sorry I ruined….um whatever you were doing."

"Come on let's get back to camp. Besides it's almost sunset so we should be getting back anyway."

"Want to hunt a little first though?"

"Yah ok." After the hunt they walked back to camp and put their prey in the fresh kill pile. When they were done they ate together and rested quietly.

Maplewing

They were lined up and ready for battle. Few had regrets as they marched out. The sun had set and everything was quiet and still. Finally they had reached the border. Maplewing sighed as the moved along. She fell beside Ferretwhisker and they looked at one another.

"Do you think this is a good idea?" The tom didn't answer. Then for the rest of the time they ran in silence. Before they knew it they were at the ShadowClan camp.

"ThunderClan attack!" Oakstar's voice rang out the clans were in a frenzy of fighting. Maplewing was fighting with a white she-cat who she didn't know. She felt the cat rack her back with her claws. Finally Maplewing had beaten her, but before long another cat attacked.

"Get out of here ThunderClan scum!"

"Never frog breath!" Once again she had defeated him with ease.

"Oakstar, what is going on here?!" All at once the fighting had stopped.

"Why Yellowstar we came to…take over ShadowClan."

"Well let me tell you this. You will never take our clan. We will defeat you Oakstar." The tabby through his head back and laughed.

"You see if you don surrender then well you'll see." At his word Morningblaze's kits and the clan's medicine cat apprentice were brought out in front of him.

"Yellowstar you see if you don't surrender then we'll kill these cats. So you decide Yellowstar and make the wise choice." Maplewing saw the she-cat look away. Then she sighed.

"Very well Oakstar. Just let them go please." The tom smiled evilly.

"Thank you for making the wise choice Yellowstar. Oh wait I mean Yellowflower." Maplewing looked around the clearing until her eyes met with him. His amber eyes glistened with anger, hatred, and sadness. The tom looking at her was Marshclaw.

Marshclaw

After the defeat of ShadowClan Marshclaw went to find his mate, Cinderflame.

"Cinderflame there you are. I was so worried that a ThunderClan cat had…had you know."

"I felt the same. I'm happy to see you alive Marshclaw. I just can't believe that a clan would try to do that." He sighed knowing she was right.

"Let all cats old enough to catch their own prey join me beneath the…um…beneath this branch for a clan meeting. ShadowClan as you know I'm your new leader. So I expect you to treat me like so. First order of business, because ShadowClan no longer exists this joined clan will be known as ThunderClan. I will expect you treat my warriors with respect and you'll be rewarded by being able to live. We will hunt and fight like a normal clan would and the queens, kits and elders will be treated the same as our own. Now tomorrow Yellowflower you need to return your remaining lives to StarClan and maybe become an elder. Because your camp is bigger I'm bringing the rest of my clan here tonight. Everyone dismissed!" The cats tended to stay within their own clans. Cinderflame and Marshclaw sat together under the shadow of the surrounding trees.

"So now what," Cinderflame asked her mate, "I mean there are only three clans in the forest now. Marshclaw do you think he'll try and take over WindClan and RiverClan too?"

"I don't know Cinderflame he might I mean he has taken over ShadowClan already what's to stop him now?" They both sat in the silence of the warm night sitting still thinking about their future.

Dewfur

"Ash what's wrong?" The dark grey she-cat looked off into the sunset.

"Nothing to worry about Dewfur. I'm fine." She sighed heavily as she continued to gaze at the fiery ball in the sky.

"We are growing stronger each day Dewfur. I think we will survive many more seasons."

"Dewfur I am getting old and I think my leadership will come to an end." The tom looked hurt.

"N-no you can't Ash. The clan needs you." The she-cat chuckled lightly.

"I'll still be here I'd just be an elder." The young tom shifted on his paws uncomfortable.

"Ash I wanted to say thank you for taking me and my mother in. Without your help we would've died."

"How could I not help? You were less than a day old and your mother was weak and close to death."

"I don't remember much from the journey but, there is this one thing bugging me I just don't know what. Anyway I just wanted to tell you that you've been like a second mother to me. I do remember when Silverfeather was sick you took care of me along with your other kits. And I just wanted to thank you."

Once more she laughed, "What was I supposed to do hm? Leave you out there to starve and eventually die?"

"I guess not but just thank you." Dewfur padded back to the camp and spotted Sharp near the fresh-kill pile.

"Hey Sharp want to share that rabbit?!"

"Sure come on over Dewfur!" He went and sat next to Sharp and they shared the plump piece of prey.

"Hey Dewfur can I tell you something?"

"Yes what is it?"

"D-Dewfur I-I love you." The tom sat still unmoving with a surprising sense of happiness.

"I love you to Sharp." Then they rested and watched the sunset together.
