Triple update? O_O So cool! :D

So this is the 10th chapter, which means I'll be updating Flames And Floods next! Yay!

Please go to my RP and create-a-cat forum, please do my poll, and please review! Whoever does all three is a Cinderstar377 fan! :D XD

The battle has gone on too long, don't you think? I think I'll end it...soon.

Um, so here's the next chapter.

Firesoul's POV

When Lilypond and Amberpaw woke up, he saw their faces and his heart dropped.

"The thistles must control the lasting thunder, the moving shifting river and the crumbling dark shadows in order to fall in chaos and lose." Amberpaw quickly recited. "And say hi to Lilystar and myself, Amberleaf."

Firesoul nodded and turned to Canute. "Ready to go?" When the young tom nodded Firesoul quickly sized him up. "He looks about four moons," he noted as Lilystar and Amberleaf climbed out of the dip in the ground, the hollow's pool of water glistening.

"Let's go save ThunderClan!" Firesoul cheered. But the rest of the group shook their heads.

"ThunderClan has to fall in order for ThistleClan to fall," Lilystar replied.

"Like the other Clans," Amberpaw added.

"I'll help fight your...enemies off, but...I'm going to leave after that," Canute mewed.

Firesoul frowned. "Oh. Okay. So..."

"We still call Lilystar Lilypond, and myself Amberpaw. Or else they'll kill us and take all of Lilystar's lives," Amberleaf hissed.

That makes sense. But the new prophecy is odd. ThunderClan has to be in control of ThistleClan to fall? Firesoul wondered. Then he heard something else in his mind.

Death is coming to someone close to you... The message joleted Firesoul. "Lilyst-pond!"he growled, jogging up to where his sister and leader was running to. They were almost at the ThunderClan border. "Someone is about to die that's close to us!"

Lilystar still pressed on. "I'll pray your wrong."

Amberleaf, who was nudging Canute forward, nodded. "We'll have to."

They don't believe me?! After all that had happened they didn't? It seemed like they would believe anything now because of the recent shocking events, but Firesoul guessed wrong.

Then they were at the ThunderClan camp.

Jumphare's POV

Jumphare battled a tom who looked slightly out of it- as in, crazy. Finally, after batting the tom away, Fishface(Yes it was him!) finally staggered away into defeat.

Hophare's plan had worked- now ThistleClan was fighting for their lives, instead of the other way around as they had before.

Until Lilypond, Firesoul, and Amberpaw entered camp with a kit.

Running over to his littermates, he hissed, "We're winning! And who's that?"

Surpsinsly, Lilypond looked horrified that they were winning. "N-no! We have to lose! It's StarClan's will!"

Firesoul cut her off at the word "StarClan". "This is Canute. He saved Amberpaw's life from a rouge in ThistleClan's territory. Oh, and Lilystar got her nine lives and Amberleaf her name but don't say it out loud or else Sunstar will kill them. Call them Lilypond and Amberpaw like before."

Jumphare nodded. "Okay...? But why do we have to lose?"

"StarClan said. It's the only way for ThistleClan to fall." Amberpaw's eyes fluttered as she said it and seemed to fall into a daze as she recited "The thistles must control the lasting thunder, the moving shifting river and the crumbling dark shadows in order to fall in chaos and lose."

This seems serious... Jumphare thought as Firesoul cut in again. "And something else- Death is coming to someone close to you. Someone's going to die, Jumphare!"

Jumphare blinked. "Oh no..."he moaned. "It must be one of us six!"

Graceheart's POV

"Rockclaw! Over here!" Graceheart called out to her friend in the mist of the battle. Graceheart was at the very center of the clearing, fighting the end of the invaders- not many, but ThunderClan's warriors and ThistleClan traitors wasn't many either. The ThistleClan cats still left fighting were Pheasentclaw, Sunstar, Crosstail, Blackclaw, Whitefoot, Ashwhisker, and Ashflower.

Ashwhisker. She's fought along side Ashwhisker once. But Skyleap's sister was now on ThislteClan's side- and would end up regretting it.

Rockclaw bounded over. "Who do you want to fight?" he asked.

Sunstar was battling Mudwing and Fuzzyfoot, Crosstail was fighting Skyleap and Laurelclaw, Ashflower Maplepaw and Shadepaw, Pheasentclaw was ganged up on by Darkfur and Amberrain- who were fighting with ShadowClan tactics and easily defeating him, while Blackclaw and Whitefoot were struggling to help him.

"Ashwhisker," she decided. "She's the only one not fighting." That was true. The ex-RiverClan cat was off to the side licking a small battle wound.

Rockclaw glanced at her. "Okay."

Wow. He must really think that Ashwhisker is a traitor to RiverClan, she thought as she glanced at him. The brown tom was flexing his paws, eager to fight. His eyes were sparkling in the now-moonlight, and his long tail was waving.

He's really handsome, Graceheart realized. I'm surprised no RiverClan wants him to be her mate.

"Let's go already," Rockclaw mewed to her, and Graceheart nodded.

Graceheart and Rockclaw quickly circled around Ashwhisker and pounced. The ThistleClan she-cat squeaked in surprise and dropped to the ground. Rockclaw held her down steady while Graceheart clawed Ashwhisker's ears.

"That's for betraying your Clan!" he hissed as Rockclaw then clawed at Ashwhisker's back. "That's for supporting Sunstar and ThistleClan!"

"ThislteClan is strong! ThunderClan will fail!" Ashwhisker growled. "Sunstar will always win!"

Graceheart shook her head. "No- Sunstar is already losing. ThistleClan has lost. ThunderClan will win." Then she swooped down on the warrior's neck and bit it.

There was a paw and then Graceheart was on the ground pinned, while Rockclaw laid dazed on the ground a few fox-lengths away.

Ashwhisker stood over her. "Your wrong!"

Graceheart shook her head weakly. "No I'm not!"

Suddenly Ashwhisker's eyes bulged and she started to lose her balance and fell onto the ground beside Graceheart.

"Dark...Forest...will never claim me!" Ashwhisker coughed out blood as she spoke, and then her eyes dulled and lost their vision. Her front paw, which was curled around Graceheart's neck, loosened as Ashwhisker died.

Firesoul stood over her. "I never thought I'd kill a cat," he whispered, horrified.

Hophare's POV

"Take that!"he yowled at a ThistleClan warrior as he punched the warrior's head. The warrior fell to the ground, knocked out... though not before he gave Hophare a final cut on the leg.

"Owwwwwww!" Hophare moaned. "That hurt!"

He turned to Laurelclaw, Mudwing, and Fuzzyfoot. Mudwing, who'd had lots of injuries earlier, was limping away, while Laurelclaw was nowhere to be found. Fuzzyfoot was the only one left fighting Sunstar.

Then there was a crack of bone.

Fuzzyfoot fell to ground, eyes glazed over.

"No! Fuzzyfoot!" Laurelclaw cried out as she raced over from Crosstail and Skyleap. "No! My sweet son, my sweet sweet son!"

But her son was dead.

"Fuzzyfoot..." Hophare murmured as he padded over to his friend. Fuzzyfoot was missing an eye, and had a lot of scars from the Great War, but he... he was still a great warrior.

Was.

Sunstar looked up from his body. "Eh. Well, that's four cats I've killed in this battle. Who wants to die next?" she asked, raising her claws meaningfully.

Hophare looked up sharply, gaping at Sunstar. "You killed four?!" and the ThistleClan leader nodded.

"Yellowstar, Grasslace, now Fuzzyfoot, and some kit." Sunstar rolled her eyes as she told them. "Anyway... I think one of you can die now." A growl started to rumble in her throat.

A kit died? That means... one of Slowwing's! Hophare thought as Laurelclaw growled, "No! You killed Fuzzyfoot! You deserve to die!" he heard a startled hiss, most likely from Sunstar, as Laurelclaw launched herself at the she-cat. "Die Sunstar!"

Hophare turned away. Laureclaw could take care of herself- and then Shadepaw and Blizzardpaw ran over to help. "I need to find that kit," he said to himself. Slowwing must have not been there to help save it.

He ducked inside the nursery to see two bundles of fur- about apprentice size. Tornkit and Flyingkit.

"HI!" Tornkit yowled. "HI HOPHARE!"

"How's the battle going?" Flyingkit asked softly, shooting an annoyed look at her brother.

"Good, quiet down Tornkit, we're winning, where's Slowwing?" Hophare asked as quickly as he could.

"YAY!" Tornkit squealed, then quickly whispered, "Sorry."

"Mom's trying to get herbs for hurt cats," Flyingkit replied, voice still quiet. "She says she knows a bit about herbs and wants to help her Thundy friends since she can't fight."

Thundy... friends...what? "Uh, er...okay. Also did you see a big ginger she-cat?" Hophare questioned one last time, mentioning Sunstar.

"Nope!" Tornkit replied, but Flyingkit mewed, "Yeah she started to beat up a kit!"

Confusion crashed down on Hophare as he mewed a goodbye and ran out to the small battle. How can this be? We only have two kits in ThunderClan!

Then he remembered, dread creeping around him, about Conute- a four moon year old.

He was the one Sunstar had killed.
