I waited in line with the other guards. We were behind Scourge and Bone. All of us were hiding in the bushes as Tigerstar threaten Firestar.
Blackfoot raised his tail as the signal and we slowly filed out of the bushes. I saw Firestar's expression changed from anger to dismay as he saw all of us walk out without a whisper said between us. My color had more dog teeth on it now. Scourge said that it would scare away the weak clan cats.
"Well?" Tigerstar said. "Are you still sure that you want to stand and fight?" Firestar didn't answer. Then Bone stood on one side of Tigerstar and Scourge on the other.
"So Tigerstar, do you want to tell us who your new friends are?" Firestar asked.
"This is Bloodclan. They come from the Twolegplace. I brought them into the forest to help persuade you foolish cats to join me. I knew that you wouldn't have the sense to agree on your own!" Tigerstar yelled. Firestar looked up at the sky and then walked up to Tigerstar and Cloudtail said "Be careful Firestar."
Firestar began to tell Tigerstar's bloody quest to gain power over the clan. I watched as the clan cats' faces changed from battle hungry to fear and anger toward Tigerstar but Bloodclan held the same expression. I stood directly behind Tigerstar and it was fucking scary being this close to two dangerous leaders and their deputies.
"I am Scourge, the leader of Bloodclan," Scourge began and then he said "Tigerstar told me about the plans about the dog pack but he did not tell me it failed." Tigerstar growled and said "None of that matters now, Bloodclan and Tigerclan! Attack!" Tigerstar yelled but Bloodclan didn't move.
"They only listen to me Tigerstar, not you. Firestar, I will think over on what you have said. There will be no battle today." Tigerstar hissed and then yelled "Traitor!"
He bunched his hind legs and then leaped forward and his claws on his hind legs hit me since I was so close and I stumbled back. OW!
I closed one eye as a cut began to bleed from above it. Scourge hissed and had leaped out of the way of Tigerstar's attack and then rammed him in the side and Tigerstar fell on his side exposing his stomach. Scourge raised a paw that had reinforced dog teeth for his claws and sliced a long slice down the middle of Tigerstar. Then he did something else.
He raised his paw again and swung it at Tigerstar's face and it had pulled out his eye. Tigerstar screeched and then fell silent. Then he after a few seconds his body went through a spasm and he was alive again but then die almost right away. I watched as Tigerstar died over and over until his last life slipped away into the Dark Forest.
Tigerclan began to flee but we held ground. "Windclan! Don't fall back!" Tallstar yelled as his Warriors started to turn around. Thunderclan didn't move and Firestar said nothing. Instead he stared at the broken body of his worst enemy. Killed nine times with one blow and extra pain for attacking me. Another time life has told me that Scourge likes me.
Then we started to move forward but Scourge raised one blood soaked paw and we stopped. "You see what happens to cats who defy Bloodclan," Scourge warned calmly. "Your friend here," Scourge flicked his tails to the motionless body of Tigerstar, "Thought that he could control us. He was wrong."
"We don't want to control you," Firestar rasped. "All we want is to live our lives in peace. We are sorry that Tigerstar has brought you here with lies. Please feel free to hunt before you go home."
"Go home?" Scourge widens his eyes in a scornful disbelief. "We're not going anywhere forest fool. In the town we come from, there are many, many cats, and live prey is scarce. Here in the forest, we won't need to depend on Twoleg rubbish for our food."
Scourge gaze slid past Firestar to where Thunderclan and Windclan stood ready for battle. "We are taking over this territory now," Scourge went on.
"I shall rule the forest as well as the town. But I understand that you may need some time to reflect on this. You have three days to leave – or meet my Clan in battle. I shall wait for your decision at dawn on the fourth day."
Firestar stared, speechless with shock. Scourge turned and walked into the crowd of our own Clan and then we fallowed silently into the bushes leaving the scared and shocked clans behind.
On our way back to Shadowclan territory, this is where we will be staying at, my mind filled with thoughts. Will I help my Clan, or will I help the Clans that are supposed to win? And what about Scourge and Firestar? I was sent here to help Scourge but I also said that I would help Firestar if he was being killed. What do I do!
"Felidae, are you okay?" l looked over my shoulder to see a black and white tom, Time is his name, his sister is Space…I wonder if they are related to Sol?
"Yah, I'm fine, just got a lot on my mind. I know that the Clans of the forest aren't going to give up without a fight." I said and then Time said "You know that you will be fine right? "
I nodded and said "We are stronger than those cats." Time nod his head in agreement then said "I'll see you later Felidae." Then he walked towards his sister and they talked. I envied that. Most of these cats fear me because I have killed Bleach and Killer. I have no one really to talk to except Time, sometimes. His sister doesn't trust me and she always sends a warning to me when I talk to Time.
We soon reached the road or Thunderpath and before Scourge could give off and order to run across I spotted a drainage pipe that runs under the road.
"Scourge, I know away across that is hidden from monsters." I called and the black cat came back and said "Where?" I nodded and said over this way." I lead Scourge to the drainage pipe and Scourge sniffed it. I crawled through and the rest of Bloodclan waited on the other side. I poked my head out and climbed up a small hill and then saw Bloodclan on the other side.
Soon Scourge came out the other end and so did the rest of the clan. Scourge continued through Shadowclan territory and we fallowed. The sun was setting casting a red-orange glow over the land and made the sky seemed to be covered in blood. Then a soft wind blew a voice that touched my ears only.
"As the fallen angels die they shall come back with the help of a winged flame and Felidae to help change the stars and to stop the darkness that last forever…"
Then another wind blew that was heard by two pairs of ears. "The scourge that attacks the clans will entwine with the outsider from farther than the stars, and the history that repeats its self shall fall to Felidae…" I shivered at both of the prophecies I had just heard and when I looked forward at the front of the group, a pair of icy blue eyes gazed at me with wonder.
