BoneMeal: I'll worry about you if you ever tone down the quirkiness. Believe me, your quirkiness only proves how much you enjoy my stories, which brightens my day. I agree with your sentiment about Trenton. He is an ass…and he'll only get worse. Also, feel free to correct any mistakes I make in terms of the Cinders and Flames as this story progresses. I mainly rely on the emotions and thoughts I get after reading your work to help me form them here. If I make any mistakes, correct me and I'll go back and fix them.

Mistleaf: I actually had another couple in mind to become Adder and Maple's parents. And Crystal will be a perfect addition to Trenton's forces. There will be a surprise revealed in the next Lightningfur chapter about Dominic. I may or may not make Crystal get involved.

AlexaMarrinDaughterofPoseidon: Please let me if I misrepresented Aspenfall in any way, shape, or form.

SilentLeap85: Silversoul will be taking on a much larger role in the chapters to come (you'll understand after this chapter) so let me know if I misrepresent her in any way.

Review and Enjoy!


Reviving Blood

Chapter 9: The Darkening Horizon

The Clan chanted the names of the three new apprentices. Wishpaw and Honeypaw were standing tall beside their new mentors, Bonefeather and Leafshine. Bearpaw looked a little uncomfortable beside Barktooth, his mentor. Aspenfall wasn't surprised. The tom had joined the Clan after Stormwind's battle with Star but he had never been comfortable. He had never met his father. His mother had been cruel to him, beating him up regularly. Then he had been attacked by the kit-killer Star. Her ice blue eyes narrowed as she watched him edge away from the gathering cats. Distrust ran deep. Fear held sway of his heart. Then she shook her head and padded towards Leafshine. The young brown calico smiled at her, pride and excitement shining in her deep green eyes.

"Congratulations, Leafshine. I know you'll great," Aspenfall meowed, her front right foot nudging her old apprentice's shoulder.

"I'll do great because I had the best mentor in the world," Leafshine replied with a purr. Then she turned to Honeypaw and meowed, "Let's get going. There's a lot of territory for you see today."

Honeypaw bounced in an excited circle, "Let's go, go, go!"

Bonefeather chuckled as she padded past with Wishpaw, "We might as well go together. Safer in numbers. Barktooth! Bearpaw! Come on!"

Aspenfall smiled after the little group. Honeypaw already had more energy than a cooped up squirrel. Wishpaw, though quiet and respectful, was already trying to race out of camp and see the territory beyond. Even Bearpaw shrugged off his nervousness as he drew closer to the bramble barrier. Barktooth led the way through with Leafshine bringing up the rear. A sigh escaped the tabby she-cat's mouth as Leafshine tail vanished into the bushes.

"Your father would be proud of you, young one," she whispered to empty air.

A soft voice entered her ears, "So I'm not the only one seeing it."

"No. It's there in all of them but Leafshine has shouldered the burden silently. She won't even let me in," Aspenfall replied.

Nightfur stepped to her friend's side, amber eyes locked on the entrance, "He was the only father she ever knew. After Coral's death, Leafshine was terrified to lose another member of her family. Now that family has been fractured. Blizzardsky and Forestclaw barely talk to each other. The young ones are defensive, quiet, and reserved. Jayflight is the only one she can talk to but he carries the belief that his father's capture was his fault."

"What? There was nothing he could have done to stop it. Not even Starclan could challenge Trenton's power. Blizzardsky and Forestclaw are being mouse-brains. They should be setting the example, as their father did for them. Instead they try fight every chance they get. It's not helping their younger siblings learn and grow. Leafshine…she's losing her light…I don't know what to do about her."

The black she-cat nodded solemnly. With a sigh, she headed towards Cobrapelt to volunteer for a morning hunting patrol. Aspenfall stared after her. Worry made her stomach twist into multiple knots. His whole family was falling apart. Falconstar and Nightfur were doing their best to hold them together. Her ice blue eyes spotted Blizzardsky pulling himself out of the warriors' den with dirty moss in his jaws. Ravenpaw and Cloudpaw were tussling outside the apprentices' den, practicing their fighting moves. Both of them ignored their older brother as he padded past. Another sigh escaped Aspenfall's mouth. Her silver paws headed for the camp entrance. Cobrapelt had assigned her to the sunhigh border patrol.

Tigerpelt, Duststripe, Flowerspot, Otterfoot, and Cherryleap greeted her with smiles. The silver tabby accepted a warm nuzzle from her patched red and white brown friend. Then Tigerpelt led the way out of camp. There was a lot of ground to cover. They had to get moving. Flowerspot and Cherryleap leaped into the trees and would cover the patrol from the trees. Reaching the river, the patrol watched as Otterfoot easily slipped into the water. Her black, gray, and brown patterned fur allowed her to all but disappear in the dark water. Aspenfall's ears twitched as a bird shot into the air. She, Tigerpelt, and Duststripe were the open and vulnerable ones now. The rest of the patrol would come running if anything, or anyone, should attack them. Her claws unsheathed and flexed into the dirt. Personally, she wanted Star or Bloodfang to try something. She was tired of watching her Clanmates bleed. She was tired of fearing for the safety of her friends.

Twoleg territory soon appeared through the trees in front of them. The silver tabby felt a rush of anger rip through her. Those ice blue eyes narrowed to a terrifying degree. Memories of her past flooded her senses. She had never imagined hating anything so much before. Now all her hate was directed towards the Twolegs who hurt her friends. She especially hated one. The one who tore a family apart. Taking a deep breath, Aspenfall steadied her beating heart. Then she leaped down a small rise and followed Duststripe through the bushes. The branches snapped at her fur as she passed by. The shadows danced across her tabby stripes. Going low, Aspenfall creeped forward. This was where she was the strongest. A silent killer with a burst of blinding speed. She smiled fondly at the memory that flashed before her eyes. She had been hunting a mouse as new-leaf started pulling itself away from leaf-bare. Her charge had been a near silent one. Bursting from the bushes, she had barely registered a flash of white off to her left. Her claws ripped into the mouse, killing it instantly. Then she finally managed to look at the pure white tom opposite her. That had been when she first met Lightningfur.

That had been the day she learned what real friendship meant.

Something snapped off to her right. Aspenfall instantly froze. Her nose searched for the scents of her Clanmates. Tigerpelt and Duststripe were ahead of her. Looking up, she caught a glimpse of Flowerspot leaping into another tree. Cherryleap was probably not far behind. Otterfoot had probably swam on ahead and would await the rest of the patrol closer to Twoleg territory. No other scents were obvious in the air. A prickling sense ran up her spine. The birds had gone silent. Normally one could hear rodents digging around the tree roots. Nothing came to her senses. That was never a good sign. Easily she turned towards the sound and slid forward. Skycloud had helped the silver tabby develop one of the most silent stalking techniques in Forestclan. Coupled with her bursting speed, this silence made Aspenfall a force to be reckoned with.

Her dark gray nose pushed aside the leaves. Her silver paws were placed with care and precision. Each branch was eased back into position by her tail. Only the faintest rustle of the leaves by her breath or a dry leaf crackling against her pelt gave away her position. Claws glinted in the dappling light of forest floor. Her lips were relaxed, hiding her sharp teeth. They would be bared within seconds of spotting the enemy. Her ice blue eyes darted to the ground as her pads felt an unusual indention. Paw prints! Her hackles began to rise as she noticed something else. It was darker than the surrounding dirt. Not even the shadows could hide it. Blood. Her nose sniffed at the trail. The cat's scent was gone but the blood was relatively fresh. Whoever it was hadn't passed by too long ago. With a growl, Aspenfall raced after the intruder. She had to find who it was before he or she hurt a member of Forestclan.

It wasn't long before she heard Leafshine's screech of pain.

The trees became a blur of green and brown. Twigs snapped as she stepped on them. Bushes shook as she plowed through them. Terror gripped her heart like icy claws. Her ice blue eyes narrowed as she desperately tried to see through the foliage. Yowls broke the air as Leafshine, Bonefeather, and Barktooth challenged the threat. Looking up, Aspenfall spotted Honeypaw helping Wishpaw pull herself onto a branch. Bearpaw was gripping the trunk several tail-lengths above the she-cats. His amber eyes were wide with sheer terror as he watched the scene below. Each pawstep allowed Aspenfall to hear the fight as it progressed. Whoever the attacker was, they were skilled enough to fight three full-grown warriors.

"Well's add a fourth to that number," Aspenfall's thoughts growled.

With a yowl, she burst from the bushes. The scene came to her in slow motion. Bonefeather was picking herself off to the left. Barktooth was leaning heavily against the tree the apprentices were hiding in, right hind leg bleeding badly. Leafshine was pinned to the ground under a brown tom covered in burn marks. His back right paw was stark white and part of his tail was missing. Green eyes looked up as he heard the she-cat incoming. Then Aspenfall collided with him. Her claws seized ahold of his shoulders. Sharp teeth dug into his black chest. Dust flew as they hit the ground. Pain raced from her left side as his hind claws scratched at her. Dark rage filled the she-cat as they broke apart. The tom's white chin had been turned red with the blood of her Clanmates.

"Aspenfall!" Leafshine screech as she watched her mentor charge the tom.

The two sidestepped the other. The she-cat's claws raked through his right side. His claws barely cut into her shoulder. Both turned to face the other. They reared, locking together in death grip. Both were strong. They were the same height. Both seemed determined to rip the other to tiny shreds. The tom bit Aspenfall's nose as her claws dug into his spine. Unbalanced, Aspenfall fell onto her left side. Instantly the tom rolled her onto her back. He was trying to find the advantage. A yowl was ripped from his mouth as the silver tabby raked her hind claws through his stomach. Then she heaved him up and over her head. His body collided with a tree. He shook his head then charged at her. Aspenfall ducked his outstretched paw. Her jaws snapped shut on his right hind leg and pulled it out from under him. She reared on him, claws reflecting the sunlight.

Her ice blue widened…

Right before his hind paw slammed into her chin.

Leafshine let out a screech as her mentor hit the ground. Pain flowed from Aspenfall's head as it struck a stone. Darkness slowly pulled at her senses. Something deep within, some instinct, told her to move. Her muscles stiffened as she prepared to do so. Then something tore into her. She gasped in agony. The tom's brown paw pinned down her head. He gave her a cruel smile, green eyes shining with triumph. He leaned over and licked her cheek.

That's when darkness overtook Aspenfall's memory.

Groaning, the silver tabby slowly opened her eyes. She was laying on a soft bed of moss. Voices entered her ears as two cats talked quietly. She instantly recognized Jayflight's worried tone. The other cat was Tawnysong. That's when she recognized the medicine cat den. Her ice blue eyes rolled upward as she sought the talking cats. Her heart twisted as Jayflight buried his head into his mentor's white chest, shoulders trembling. Tawnysong whispered something to him as she wrapped her spotted tail around his back. Tears streaming down his cheeks, the tom rose and headed out of the den.

"Tawnysong?" Aspenfall meowed, her throat sore and voice weak.

The calico turned to look at her. Surprise was evident in her green eyes. Quickly she trotted over to the wounded she-cat. She sniffed at Aspenfall's injuries. Then she turned and padded over to a pile of cobwebs. Gingerly she removed the bloody webs and placed the new ones. Aspenfall hissed as the medicine cat rubbed an herb mixture onto the injuries. That done, Tawnysong sat down next to Aspenfall. She knew the she-cat was worrying for her Clanmates.

"You saved them, Aspenfall. Barktooth is healing just fine thanks to your intervention. Bonefeather and Leafshine received a few injuries but nothing significant. All the apprentices are healthy. After the tom kicked you, you hit your head on a rock. He took advantage of your weakened state to rip open your stomach. Luckily the wounds weren't deep so Leafshine managed to keep you alive until Blossomstorm and I could arrive. Bonefeather told us that the tom seemed to have other plans for you but the rest of your patrol before he could act. They chased him into a hunting patrol. He's now a prisoner here in camp. Falconstar is trying to get him to talk. Nightfur and her kits seem ready to kill the cat," she explained quietly.

"How bad is the damage?" the tabby asked weakly, feeling a spike of pain as she took a deep breath.

"You lost a lot of blood but you'll heal. Don't be surprised if your wounds scar. The bite mark on your nose will most definitely scar. It could have been way worse," was Tawnysong's response. Then she brushed her tail across Aspenfall's mouth, "Rest, Aspenfall. Everything will be alright. You just need to heal."

The Clan was gathered beneath the meeting rock. Falconstar sat at the top, back straight and tail curled over his paws. Cobrapelt was sitting on the ground to his leader's left. Tawnysong and Blossomstorm were on Falconstar's right. Aspenfall was sitting just outside the medicine den. Jayflight and Leafshine pressed into either side of her. Nightfur was crouching a few tail-lengths away with Cherryleap and Silversoul. None of the she-cats looked happy. Hisses and growls made the gathered cats look towards the prisoner's den. Blizzardsky backed out, hauling the brown tom by the scruff. Aspenfall was glad to see the tom had been beaten up since her fight with him. Of course Tawnysong and Blossomstorm had taken care of his injuries but that didn't mean Forestclan was showing him any special treatment. Forestclaw stepped out of the den and pressed into the tom's right side. Both toms forced him to start walking towards the Clan leader.

As the tom passed the medicine den, he turned to look at Aspenfall. He gave her a sickening smile. Instantly Leafshine snarled at him. Nightfur, Cherryleap, and Silversoul took a step closer, ready to defend their wounded friend. Blizzardsky slammed his paw into the tom's head. He ordered him to keep moving. Hisses and low, threatening growls greeted the tom as he passed each member of Forestclan. Reedtail was standing protectively between the tom and his daughter. Willowbreeze, Rattleclaw, and Sunviper pressed into Wishpaw. Bearpaw pulled closer to his mentor as the trio passed. Soon the tom was standing before the meeting rock. His green eyes rose to look up at the Forestclan leader.

Falconstar growled angrily, "Why are you on Forestclan's territory? Why did you attack our Clanmates?"

The tom shrugged lazily, "Simply following my orders. Scout around. Kill anyone I found."

The Forestclan leader's green eyes narrowed angrily, "Who gave your orders? Why do they care about our Clan?"

A simple tail flick resulted in Forestclaw scratching the tom's cheek. He hissed, "My leader. Forestclan is a threat to the Flames. All threats to our family will burn."

Tigerstorm's voice rang out, voice cracking with fear, "Flames? The Flames are coming here?"

The tom turned to look at Tigerstorm. Flickerfire was watching his friend with wide, terrified eyes. The off-white tom was standing with paws spread apart for balance. His brown eyes were wide with sheer terror. His body began to tremble as old memories flooded his senses. Aspenfall felt her heart twist for the tom. The Flames had taken everything from him and Flickerfire. Now they were coming here, with plans to do the same thing. She felt Jayflight stiffen at her side. Calmly she ran her tail down his side to remind him where he was. Growls of worry echoed from the throats of several cats. The kits whimpered and pulled deeper into the nursery. Aspenfall herself could feel terror reaching for her heart. Then she shook her head. Forestclan had Tigerstorm. Surely he could prepare them for the attack. She stepped through the throng of cats towards her attacker. Her ice blue eyes glared at him as he gave her another sickening smile.

"How long until they arrive?" she snapped.

A shrug was the response. She snorted before turning around. Then, without warning, she kicked him in the jaw. A choked cry came from his mouth as the tom collapsed to the ground. Aspenfall leaped on top of him and snarled. Finally the words started stumbling from his mouth like a flood, "Three moons. Forge is still trying to gather all our forces. Then they have to march here and set up camp without losing our ally. Once they are here, they'll kill any cat who dares to challenge them. Tiger and the young kit are their targets. None of Cinders can be allowed to live. Those are Forge's orders."

"Tigerstorm," Aspenfall meowed, turning to face the off-white tom. He looked at her, "Do you think you can train us in how these cats will fight?"

Tigerstorm nodded instantly, "The Cinders and the Flames had similar ways of fighting. I don't know everything but I'll share what I know." Then he snarled, "Forge will come for me once they arrive. He and I have some unfinished business to deal with."

Falconstar spoke, "Then coordinate training with Cobrapelt." His eyes turned to the tom, "You will be escorted to the border of Forestclan territory. If you are caught on our territory again, you will be killed without hesitation or mercy. Tell your leader that Forestclan will defend what belongs to us. If he comes here with his family then it will be war."

Aspenfall stepped back as Tigerpelt, Coalsplash, Autumnfire, Mintleaf, Cobrapelt, and Wolfsnarl closed in on the tom. Green eyes glanced warily at Aspenfall as he was led away. Then he gave a small, knowing smile. Aspenfall eyed him suspiciously. He was planning something. Whatever it was, it meant trouble. She signaled with her tail to Forestclaw and Blizzardsky. She told them to follow the patrol and keep an eye on their uninvited guest. Both nodded before bounding away. The rest of Clan remained where they had been sitting or standing. All eyes turned to Falconstar.

The tom sighed before turning to the medicine cats, "Has Starclan shared anything with you?"

"No, Falconstar," Tawnysong meowed softly.

Blossomstorm muttered angrily, "You'd think we tell you if Starclan had approached us." Then she subsided as Tawnysong ran her tail along her spotted side.

Falconstar shook his head, "I don't know what the next step should be. We need Starclan's guidance more than anything now."

Nightfur stepped forward and growled, "Remember what Jayflight said, "Water will become blood. Rain will turn to fire. War will come with a falcon's cry and a flash of lightning." Our next step seems obvious to me. We will need all our finest warriors if we hope to stand a chance. Brother, send several warriors into the heart of Twoleg territory. Summon one of the fastest cats we have ever known. Call upon Lightningfur!"

Mutters rang out as the Clan discussed this idea. Falconstar's eyes went distant. The thought of having his best friend back was a desirable one. However, Lightningfur was Trenton's prisoner. He made a deal with the Twoleg to spare Forestclan. Who knew what would happen should that deal be broken. Aspenfall stared at her. The black she-cat was trembling with many emotions. She knew the risks of calling upon her mate. She also knew the consequences of not having him with them. Aspenfall bowed her head. Could Lightningfur help them? Would he help them? Maybe if they talked to Trenton, the Twoleg would be willing to send some of his forces here to help them. Yet the journey was long. It took Lightningfur three whole moons to reach the outskirts of Forestclan's territory. What about the patrol that went in search of him? They could get lost or hurt along the way. Trenton could very easily kill them when they approached for help. And if he did agree to help then it would take longer for any sizable force to make it back. With a sigh, Aspenfall raised her head to look up at her leader.

"Nightfur's right," she spoke. Her voice cut through the mutters and debates like a whip. All eyes turned to face her. Taking a deep breath, Aspenfall steadied herself and continued, "We will need all our greatest warriors in this fight. All we can do is ask for help and hope."

"The journey is long and through unfamiliar territory. How is the patrol going to make it?" Tawnysong asked.

"I'll go!" Aspenfall meowed. "I grew up in Twoleg territory. May not know it well but I still have some old tricks that can help me figure it out."

"Count me in," Silversoul's voice rang out. The other silver tabby stepped forward, "I spent time in Twoleg territory as well. Mainly close to where Trenton lives. When the time comes to find Lightningfur and ask for help, I'll be the best option you got."

Nightfur joined their side, amber eyes flashing with determination, "And I'll be there as back-up. Trenton may not like us intruding on his land. My presence might deter any attack he could make since I'm Lightningfur's mate. My presence could also help us get in to see Lightningfur."

Falconstar looked from one she-cat to another. Each was filled with determination and a desire to what was needed to be done. He gave a short nod. Tawnysong bounded forward to Aspenfall. The silver tabby would need to rest as much as possible until they left. It would be long journey for them. Three moons to Trenton's home, the time to find Lightningfur, and three moons to travel back. Aspenfall purred as Leafshine rubbed against her. The brown calico was worried about her former mentor and friend. Yet there was a new sense of hope in her step. Forestclan was calling upon her father. If he was able to escape Trenton then was coming back.

He was coming home.
