Sorry this to soooooooooooooo long!!!!!!!


Sparrowpaw lay in the apprentice den starring out into the clearing. He and Shadepaw had returned with a lot of prey. Bramblestar had been impressed but more importantly Thornclaw was impressed. He lay in his nest unable to sleep. Birchfall sat near the tunnel guarding the camp. Runningwind's strange message rand in his ears. Did the StarClan warrior mean Shadepaw? She was his sister! He could trust her. Sparrowpaw sighed maybe he could talk to Runningwind in his dreams. Sparrowpaw found himself standing in the forest. It wasn't Starclan or the Dark Forest. He looked around.

"I must be in the old forest."

A sound drew him forward. As he padded through the trees the sound grew clearer. Cats battling. He began to run. He burst through the trees onto a slope of rocks. Two clans where fighting in front of him. By the scents he knew it was Thunderclan and Riverclan. After a few minutes the Thunderclan warriors began to fall back. All the cats disappeared except for two. A small russet tom with a large tail and a large tabby.

No!

Sparrowpaw knew that tom, it was Tigerstar. Tigerstar leapt at the russet tom and sank his teeth into his neck.

"No! Stop!"

Sparrowpaw tried to run forward but he couldn't. It seemed as if he where frozen in place. He continued yowling but the wind carried his voice away. Tigerstar stepped away form the tom.

He was dead.

Sparrowpaw was horrified.

The forest began to spin and soon Sparrowpaw was watching another battle. He was still in the old forest, but he was in the ravine. He watched as Tigerstar tried to kill Bluestar. Firestar, though he looked younger, stopped him.

The world spun.

He was standing near the old gorse tunnel. Tigerstar stood before him talking to a pretty she cat. His heart stopped, Brindleface.

"Brindleface, Brindleface run!"

The delicate queen did not here him. Tigerstar jumped her and slit her throat.

"No! No Brindleface!"

Before he could move the forest began to spin again.

He was standing near a thunderpath watching another fight. One cat stood out to him.

Runningwind.

Sparrowpaw snarled. He lept forward but when he landed in the fight the cats went through him. Sparrowpaw swiped and slashed but his paws just passed right through the enemy cats. Runningwind was losing and Sparrowpaw had a sickening felling. Tigerstar padded up to the bloody warrior. Runningwind was weak, bloody and in no condition to fight. But Runningwind didn't seem to notice. He rose to his paws and faced his enemy.

"Brave move, didn't think you would be the one to stay Runningwind."

Runningwind barred his teeth and spat. "A lot has changed Tigerclaw."

Tigerstar nodded his head. He was standing in front of Runningwind a few tail lengths away. "I still remember when you where a sniveling apprentice."

Runningwind lashed his tail.

"Not even Bluestar could make you stop shaking."

The loners laughed.

"But then again Bluestar is a sorry excuse for a warrior."

Runningwind snarled, "Bluestar was a great mentor, and a great leader."

Tigerclaw narrowed his eyes. "She's a weak, star gazing, crow food excuse for a cat. She doesn't deserve to be called a warrior let alone a leader."

Runningwind growled and launched himself at Tigerstar. Tigerstar shoved him away. Runningwind hit the ground with a thud. Shakily he rose to his paws.

"Look at what good Bluestar has done, you can't even fight."

Runningwind growled. "She knows more than you ever will, she is the greatest warrior and leader the forest has ever seen. But you wouldn't know that, you're just a fox hearted traitor and a coward."

Tigerstar snarled and launched himself at Runningwind. At the last second Runningwind flipped on his back so Tigerstar landed on his claws. (sound familiar? Its Bluestar's speacial move, she showed it to Firestar in the first series) Tigerstar yowled in agony as Runningwind launched him away.

Fast as lightning Runningwind pinned him to the ground. Tigerstar struggled but couldn't get away.

"You will never take over Thunderclan."

Tigerstar snarled and swiped at Runningwind. The brave warrior dodged and stood facing his enemy. Tigerstar came at him again but Runningwind pinned him down. The loners rushed forward and pulled Runningwind off their leader and held him to the ground. Tigerstar stalked forward and lowered his muzzle to Runningwind's ear.

"Any last words?"

Runningwind hissed, "Coward, you can't fight me alone."

Tigerstar purred, "Anything else?"

Runningwind broke free and pinned Tigerstar to the ground. His green eyes blazed with fury and for a second Tigerstar's eyes flashed with fear.

"Long live Bluestar!" Runningwind snarled. The loners rushed forward and finished the warrior off. Sparrowpaw opened his eyes in horror.

He was in Starclan and seated before him where the three cats that Tigerstar had slaughtered and their faithfull leader.


Wow.

I really like this chapter, because it gives you an idea (well at leats my idea) of how Runningwind died.

Review!!
