The Clans are ready...
Chapter 9
A half-moon later (the night of the full moon)...
Danny marched tensely behind Flowerwish and the newly named Duskflower and Darkspots. Behind him ThunderClan's newest warriors, Rosepetal and Toadspots, padding along nervously. Sageclaw walked to Danny's left, and to his right was Lionblaze. He liked the fact that his newfound friends were with him to battle.
The medicine cats, queens, kits, and elders had stayed behind with only one warrior from each Clan left to guard them. He felt certain they would be OK; right now he needed to focus on protecting those around him. He couldn't worry about Mintleaf, or his newest pal Jayfeather. He just needed to focus...
The large patrol met BloodClan somewhere in the WindClan boundaries. The eyes of Ice and Snake glinted in the light of the full moon. Danny drew back his lips in a snarl...these good-for-nothing crowfood eaters!
It was Leafstar who had led the patrol; the older leaders thought she should experience this, even if it meant her death.
An eerie silence swept over the moors, and Danny felt a strange sensation, like his ghost sense.
Then Leafstar's call erupted in the silence. "Warriors, ATTACK!!!!!!!!!!!" Yowls from both side rang in Danny's ears as he charged forward. He stopped and looked for a cat to fight, before seeing three warriors pinning down Hazeltail and two others holding down Blossompaw.
Danny realized the fight was unfair. His anger boiled inside him, and his eyes flashed a bright, iridesent green and remained that way. His claws slid out, and, strangely, they were the same green as his ghost ray. But Danny took no notice. Rage filled him, and he flung himself at the BloodClan cats holding down the two ThunderClan cats, nearly flying. "Leave them ALONE!!" he screeched. He barreled into one of the toms, raking out large amounts of fur. Blood stained his glowing green claws. Pinning the tom down, the cat's amber eyes took one glance at Danny's glowing green eyes. That was all it took for the tom to flee in terror.
Eyes flashing, Danny easily shook the other cats away from the two she-cats. They took no notice of his now green eyes as the fight unfolded. But the BloodClan cats noticed, and most fled after a few horrible wounds Danny gave them. His attacks were stronger due to his ghost powers enhanced with his rage. He looked for other cats that needed help. Surprisingly, no one attacked the halfa - which was a point for Danny.
The white tom noticed Lionblaze desperately fighting off about a dozen cats. The determined young cat looked as though he could handle it; but Danny knew he should help anyway.
Lionblaze's eyes looked into Danny's; they held shock when the golden tom noticed they were not a calm, ice blue, but instead a glowing neon green. Lionblaze turned back to the BloodClan cats as Danny almost litterally flew over to the scene. Lionblaze had killed one tom and sent a she-cat fleeing, and Danny helped him finish off the rest.
After, oh, say, a few hours of fighting, the sun began to rise, and almost all cats had fledor were dead. Ice and Snake had been killed. The Clans had won.
Danny saw Firestar and Leafstar talking quietly together. After a moment they padded over to Danny, who's eyes were back to their normal blue.
"Danny," Leafstar said, "You have served SkyClan well, and I thank you, but I would like you to continue on with Firestar in ThunderClan."
Danny dipped his head as Leafstar departed, the rest of SkyClan following behind as they left. But Mintleaf stopped for a heartbeat.
"Goodbye, Danny," she whispered. "I'll never forget you."
And with that, SkyClan left, and Danny went to see his new home.
MUCH better if you ask me. Okie-dokie, BYE!!!
