Not good at fight scenes, so bear with me!
"What?" He repeated. "I thought I killed you!"
Appletail felt fury rushing through her. This tom was the cause of her boredom for the last moon. This tom was the cause of her pain. Her claws slid out. She was ready for revenge.
Appletail leaped and let out a growl. Fury had blinded her, and the tom had easily dodged. All her claws had done was give shallow cuts down his back. Appletail scrambled to her feet, but the tom was already there. His eyes lit with amusement at her fail. The Clan cat knew he was distracted, and slashed at his muzzle. Blood flew onto Appletail. She winced. I am supposed to heal! Not hurt! The two cats rolled on the wet ground, neither gaining an advantage. Appletail lost her footing and the tom wasted no time. He leaped onto her and once again, Appletail was pinned.
She heard a yowl, the same one she had heard a moon ago, when a grey tom lept out of the bushes.
The weight on her chest was gone, and the tom had run out into the bushes, and off RiverClan territory. Appletail panted. "Thank you so much for saving me..." She looked up. "...Hailstar?"
He blinked at her. "It is not your time to die." Hailstar quietly meowed.
Appletail found herself being hypnotized in his yellow eyes. "Thank you" She repeated, unsure what to say. Hailstar was gone. Appletail sighed, and raced back to RiverClan camp.
"Mistystar?"
"Yes Appletail?" She replied, giving her chest fur a lick.
"Can I make an announcement to the Clan?"
Curiosity lit her eyes, but she simply nodded and jumped onto the Highrock.
"All cats old enough to swim, gather for a Clan meeting!" She nodded to Appletail once all the cats had gathered.
"I have been attacked by a rogue once again." Shocked whispers filled the silence. "I have been warned by StarClan, and we must attack." Appletail hated saying this, but Hailstar's message was clear. RiverClan must fight.
