CHAPTER 12

"Stop!"

A loud yowl burst through the pine infested ShadowClan camp, echoing off of the huge trees. Firestar stood on a large boulder, his bright green eyes shining brightly with anger.

Sablepaw looked up with surprise, but it was already to late for Firestar to stop the battle. Only a few cats looked up at the ThunderClan leader, and those that did were ambushed from the side.

He panted at the edge of the clearing, keeping his eyes locked on the battle only fox-lengths away. Blood stained the dark grass, and fur of all colors was scattered all across the clearing.

"Take that!" a hiss came from Shadecloud who was fighting against Ivytail.

The two she-cats were evenly matched, although Ivytail had a considerable amount of experience compared to her younger rival. Behind the fighting cats, two very large toms were fighting with tooth and claw.

Leopardblaze launched himself onto the ginger form of Rowanclaw, with claws as large as thorns aiming right towards his head. Rowanclaw dodged to the side and rolled over onto his back, kicking with his hind legs to send Leopardblaze into the air once more.

With a screech of surprise, the golden spotted tom turned himself and landed with a thud onto the ground, fury spread across his face.

"Care to try that again?" the ginger warrior taunted, puffing himself up to twice his size to seem larger.

The ThunderClan warrior chuckled, "You really think your clan will win? We have twice as many warriors as you!" he flicked his tail to the fighting ThunderClan warriors.

Sablepaw looked on in surprise as Rowanclaw began to laugh, "You know your right ThunderClan rat, but did you care to see what side your warriors are fighting on?".

Leopardblaze's expression changed to sheer surprise, the same as Sablepaw's. The two toms looked to see Firestar's patrol fighting to stop their own warriors from killing any more ShadowClan cats.

We were wrong! Sablepaw gasped, it all made sense at the time, but he should never have gone against Firestar's orders.

"You have to stop" the dark brown apprentice turned to Leopardblaze, pleading with the look in his eyes.

"Why should I?" the strong-built warrior asked while keeping an eye on his opponent, "These rat eaters are stealing prey from our territory."

Sablepaw looked down, there was no way to prove either way if that was in fact the case. If he had just kept his mouth shut on that day out with Snowfall, then none of this would have happened!

But before Sablepaw could even explain to Leopardblaze why this was wrong, something powerful bolted into his body, knocking the air right out of him. Flying a fox-length through the air,

Sablepaw came down to the ground with a large thud, turning just to avoid crushing his leg. The mottled brown and ginger form of Redpaw stood ahead of Sablepaw, with his long fangs baring in a snarl.

"What's wrong, not expecting us to fight back?" he spat at the confused apprentice.

Sablepaw rose his head, "I'm sorry" he meowed, "We were wrong to attack, let me help". Redpaw just had to believe him, Sablepaw was telling the truth!

"It's to late for apologies" the ShadowClan apprentice growled, stepping towards the dark brown ThunderClan tom. "Now are you going to fight back? Or make it easy for me to send you to StarClan?".

There was no talking sense into the aggressive apprentice, Sablepaw had to fight him, it was inevitable. Redpaw lowered his mottled body to the ground, as Sablepaw bunched his muscles.

As quick as a flash of lightning, the tom flew into the air directly at Sablepaw. Quickly dodging to the side, he snagged his claws onto the grass, rolling over to avoid Redpaw's crashing force.

This is going to be harder than I thought, the apprentice was huge for his age, not to mention his weight.

"Take that!" the mottled apprentice struck into the earth next to Sablepaw with his claws, only missing by a mouse-tail.

"Stop it!" he hissed back, moving to stand up and look at the fur torn off onto the ground.

Sablepaw was trying to help, not hurt! Looking to the side for a brief moment, he saw Emberheart and Finchpaw teaming up on Russetfur, who was looking small next to them.

"That's it" Sablepaw growled, launching forward without a moments notice and biting down hard on Redpaw's scruff and shaking him. The brown and ginger cat mewled like a kit for its mother, and as soon as Sablepaw let him go, went running into the brush.

"I thought you were on our side" a shocked meow came from behind Sablepaw.

Sighing, he turned around to see the cream-furred Dawnpaw, who was looking shocked.

"I am" he hissed while starting to get fed up, "Now are you going to fight with me, or help Russetfur?" he flicked his brown tail over towards the ginger deputy who was struggling with the two ThunderClan cats.

His cousin thought for a short moment, then nodded, "Lets do this."

Without even a moment to think, Sablepaw ran with great speed alongside Dawnpaw, and with a mutual glance, both cats launched into the battle. Dawnpaw bolted in Finchpaw, easily overpowering the small tom.

While Sablepaw took Emberheart, trying not to hurt him.

"What are you doing?" the ginger warrior hissed in surprise. "Your fighting against your own clanmates, have you gone completely mad!?".

The dark brown apprentice sighed, "This is the wrong thing to do Emberheart, we shouldn't have disobeyed Firestar's orders like that. Not to mention we don't even know for sure that ShadowClan was stealing our prey!".

Couldn't his clanmates see how wrong all of this was? The ginger and white warrior stared at Sablepaw for a short moment, then simply nodded.

"Okay Sablepaw, if you believe that to be the truth then so do I" he meowed simply, while getting up to help Firestar's patrol.

Sablepaw sighed, well that was at least one less cat fighting in the battle. If only Sootfur could see the error of his ways like Sablepaw did. In fact, Sablepaw couldn't even find the unruly ThunderClan deputy.

Where are you? The apprentice searched the battlefield for the dark gray furred Sootfur, but still nothing.

Then a shrill howl rose into the midnight air, coming from the opposite side. And there in fact was his deputy, about to do something not even the worst ShadowClan cat would.

Sootfur was standing over the limp body of Snowbird, blood rippled into a puddle on either sides of her pure white body.

"No!" he called out, padding forward in absolute shock as the deputy moved on to two small lumps next to the dead queen.

It was Topazkit and Onyxkit, ShadowClan kits! Would Sootfur be as coldhearted as Sablepaw thought he might be? Looking at the dead queens body, and the fear in the young kits eyes,

Sablepaw felt hot anger rising in his blood. This cat had murdered an innocent mother, right in front of her kits on top of that. Stepping forward as Sootfur approached the two kits, Sablepaw narrowed his eyes.

You will not harm them! The brown tom growled, and then all at once he felt a large force erupt around him, and it all flew into the direction of Sootfur, knocking him with extreme force into an oak tree.

The large crash erupted around the clearing, as an eery silence fell onto the clearing. Sablepaw stood frozen still in pure shock, what, what had happened? The battle had stopped completely, and the eyes of every cat of ThunderClan and ShadowClan were rested on the dark brown apprentice.

Looking at the crushed body of his deputy, Sablepaw could only think one thought.

What am I becoming?
