Chapter 10
-FINALE- (maybe heheh)
Grayshadow stared through the tiny hole in the den, not a thing surprised her. What she had expected to happen had indeed happened. MarshClan cats flooded the hollow, but not a lot of them. She scanned the crowd, realizing that it was the warriors that trained in the Dark Forest. Thankfully, all cats were in the camp, ready to fight. Grayshadow took one fleeting glance at the young kits that she was curled around, even though only one remained alive. She packed moss around their tiny bodies, and then launched herself into the battle, though weak.
A loud snarl sounded above the cats, "Give us the kits!" The same black pelt; the glowing amber eyes. It was Shadowblaze, blood dripping down his chest. Grayshadow's eyes widened as she saw his victim. Robinstar was laying on the Sky Ledge, hanging half-way off, blood coating the area around her neck. She yowled in horror as Shadowblaze kicked the ailing she-cat off the ledge, a cold glint in his eyes. The she-cat hit the ground with a loud thud, lying still in the dirt. Grayshadow quickly dodged through the cats, frantically rushing the Robinstar's side. The she-cat was still, her green eyes dull and lifeless.
Robinstar let out a loud gasp, paws scrabbling on the ground. Her green eyes regained their shine, and the wound on her neck reduced, becoming a small wound that a kit could inflict. Robinstar hissed, "Grayshadow, Grayshadow. RUN!" Shadowblaze sprang down, and Grayshadow shuffled back, narrowing her eyes.
He snarled at Robinstar, raising his claws to inflict another death blow. Grayshadow hissed loudly, springing with all the force she could muster, long talons ready to dig into flesh. She hit her target, crashing right into the black tom. Her claws sunk in deep, blood spurting from the wound. They rolled, and eventually came to a halt. Grayshadow hissed as she was pinned down, tail sweeping. She looked right into his eyes, which were so cold and unwelcoming. He was so much different from when she last saw him. His mouth curled into an ugly smile, "Did you really think you could beat me? A weak she-cat like you?" He clawed at her face, drawing blood. She didn't flinch, the pain was nothing compared to what she had already endured.
She returned the smile, flashing her long fangs, "Weak? Don't you know how vulnerable you are right now?" She ducked her head down, grabbing a hold of one of his paws, biting down hard. She twisted her head back, bending it at an awkward angle. She raised her hind legs, tearing at his stomach with her claws, making deep wounds. Blood splattered onto her stomach, but this time, she was icily calm. One she heard a loud snap, she let go and sprang out from under him. Shadowblaze screeched in agony, taking one step, then falling to the side. His paw was broken, and his stomach torn and bleeding. The fighting continued; yowls ringing around the camp. He spat, "W-Where are the kits!?"
She stared at him, narrowing her eyes in cold hatred, "They're dead." She bounded away before he could answer. All cats were currently in battle. Moonlight, however, was pinned under two toms, who were practically 'mauling' the silver she-cat. Or so it seemed. The she-cat was pretending, no real wounds were on her pelt, just dried blood. Grayshadow sprang at one still, her claws digging into his shoulder. At the slightest pain, the tom shrieked and fled, tail tucked. The other ran too, spooked by her glares.
Moonlight rose to her paws, but instead of running off, she turned on Grayshadow. Grayshadow shrieked in surprise as she felt teeth dig into her throat. Pain made her cringe, but she still retaliated, clawing Moonlight over on her back. Her vision became blurry as Moonlight bit harder. She went limp, retracting her claws. Her mind was fuzzy and her head swam, everything hurt. She felt the ground, causing waves of pain to creep up her spine. Blood spilled out onto the sandy ground, soaking her pelt and staining the dirt. Moonlight stood over her, a wicked smile on her maw. Her vision was getting blurrier, but she saw something stand behind her, a black blur. It made a lop-sided jump, landing on Moonlight's back. Red blurs and suddenly Moonlight was on the ground next to her, the blurry red stain spread further, and black flames licked at the edges of her vision. Then she blacked out, all the pain fading away.
Grayshadow blinked, rising to her paws. She took a step forward, raising a paw to pat at her chest. There was no wound. High-pitched mews sounded, "Welcome to StarClan, mother!" Her five kits were lined up in front of her, their eyes wide and bright. She nearly jumped when something brushed her side. She looked, seeing a baffled Moonlight, but there was something different about her. Moonlight still had her wounds, and the one on her neck, which was a death blow. Grayshadow stepped toward her kits, licking each one on the head.
A pelt brushed her side, and a voice sounded in her ear, "You know what to say, sister." Grayshadow turned and looked into Embercloud's eyes, which shone bright like double suns.
Grayshadow looked to Moonlight, aware of StarClan cats gathering around her. The words came naturally to her, as she spoke, "Moonlight, for your crimes against the warrior code, and StarClan, we banish you to the Dark Forest." She took a step towards her, flicking her long tail. Grayshadow had already accepted the fact that she was dead, it was obvious. Moonlight stumbled forward, her blue eyes had a look of defeat in them, but they still had bitter hatred. The border had already shown up, the rotting bark emitting its gross scent. Her kits were following her, showing no trouble of keeping up. Falconeye and the other members were already at the border, ready to accept Moonlight into their ranks.
Falconeye looked at Grayshadow, "Will life in StarClan really be that great, my apprentice? Come with me, you'll have a greater future!" Grayshadow let her eyes flash, putting on a fake look of consideration. It sure fooled Falconeye when she stepped towards the border. Falconeye purred, "Good choice my dear. Leave those fo- " She was cut short as Grayshadow lashed out, acting from the calmness she had felt before. Falconeye fell to the ground, unmoving. No blood came from the wound, it was just a black gash, but it had the same effect as a normal wound. Soon the dark black color spread over Falconeye, until the she-cat faded away. The other members did as well, their cuts spreading and eventually making them dissolve into thin air.
Moonlight shrieked in rage, "You fox-heart Grayshadow, I'll make you pay!"
Grayshadow narrowed her eyes, "You won't exist for that." Moonlight was fading away as well, and after a few moments, vanished into thin air. Even the trees and bushes began to disappear, being replaced with the tall familiar trees that grew in RainClan's territory. Howlkit squeaked, "You can go visit the camp, but you must restrain your presence." Grayshadow turned back, looking at all her kits before bounding into the forest, gracefully dodging all the brambles, until she made it to the camp. She stood by the entrance, forcing her visible self to become transparent, and then she went in, making the smallest of rustles. The battle had ended, and Graceflower was going around the camp, treating everyone. She sat down, watching the clan. A few were dead, and it wasn't long until she saw her own body, lying sideways in the dirt. Moonlight was there too, a snarl frozen on her face.
(im going to but this as normal font~)
Grayshadow watched in pain as she saw Snakewhisk, who yowled, "Grayshadow!" Snakewhisk was hunched over her body, ears flat. Grayshadow took a step forward, wanting to comfort him. She mewed quietly into his ear, It will be fine, for now, go see our kit. Protect her, don't let anything bad happen. The tom looked up, grief in his eyes, but he went over to the spare den. Grayshadow closed her eyes, ready to return back to StarClan.
Grayshadow opened her eyes again, bounding up a hill, where everyone was waiting for her.
Petalwhisker purred, showing no signs of hate. "Welcome to StarClan, my daughter. Nothing will hurt you here"
