OMG I had no wifi for like five days! -_- Utter pain. As Well as writer's block.. AGAIN WHOOPE! But I think i'll be getting into the chapters that are more fun to write so I'll hopefully produce more… hehe
WELL I updated Chapter 7, to have a flashback SO GO CHECK DAT OUT
I also have a new DeviantArt where you can see some art of the character~ (PSST Check out "Two Sides" I'm so proud of it~)
ALSO like the new Cover? I drew it myself (Obviously) I'll make a better one in the future but I'm pretty happy with this one for now. What do you guys think?
. . . .
Shadowclaw POV:
In Shadowclaws' constant battle for control; he would take ragged steps forward and then push himself backwards, as his heartbeat and breathing multiplied.
He slumped down as another blaze of pain spread through him. Looking down at his crimson stained paw as his vision blurred from remorse.
Before he was forced once again to get to his paws and the struggling resumed.
Stormpelt POV:
Stormpelt braced himself for the strike that never came. Instead his ears were filled with shrieks of pain and struggle
Oh my StarClan, What is wrong with him?!
Though he couldn't get a visual from the blood dripping over his vision, not to mention how he was barely managing to stay conscious.
He caught a small whiff of the promise of rain in the air before he blacked out completely
Shaowclaw POV:
Shadowclaw grunted and heaved himself t go back, his legs trembling as his pupils would shift shape before you could even see them clearly, he jerked back and forth,
protesting as to what his body wanted him to do.
"SHADOWCLAW!"
A desperate yowl came from the entrance to the camp, the voice belonging to none other than Wolfwhisper herself.
NO I don't want to hurt you! GO BACK
But she lunged at him, pinning Shadowclaw to the ground.
YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE GETTING YOURSELF INTO
"Shadowclaw!" Her voice was rough and he was reminded that she had been crying
NO. Don't show weakness to him!
Shadowclaw dug his claws into the ground as another burning spasm raked itself over his body. His eyes shifting once more, tainting his vision in scarlet.
Shadowclaw slowly raised his unsheathed paw and lifted it until it hovered behind her head, ready to strike and make an easy kill
NO! NOT HER
He begged himself but his body paid no mind.
"Come back" She murmured his eyes swelling up. As her voice rose "COME BACK"
Shadowclaw gasped in surprise as he let his paw drop.
Wolfwhispers' tears spilled over her face, splattering his blood stained pelt.
I almost killed her…
I ALMOST KILLED HER
Wolfwhisper POV:
Seeing him frozen was one thing,
But seeing the black pelted tom with sinister scarlet orbs shift back and forth struggling with himself was another.
. . . .
She stood over him, as her heart broke, her love outweighed her terror as she stared into the endless depth of his murderous eyes.
She felt her body quiver with pleading as she looked down at him.
"Please come back" She gasped as she pounded her paw against the ground.
When she looked back at him, she saw something new
Shadowclaw bit his bottom lip as his eyes clouded in pain, regret remorse and sadness with so many other unidentifiable emotions that swirled in his golden eyes.
Before they shifted and he seemed to make his mind with a decision. He roughly lifted her off of him and stepped away before looking back
Once he gazed back at her; Wolfwhisper was shocked to find that for the first time,
his eyes were dull.

The promise of rain strengthened in the the air until you could almost choke on the humidity.
Though somehow it smelled different. The storm clouds had now drifted deeper and had claimed the camp, as the droplets shimmered with an unnatural light and came crashing down.
All of her clanmates were staring at the whole scene when it played out, but once the silver water landed on them they would blank out before looking around in confusion.
Soon the clearing erupted into shocked gasps when they saw Stormpet still pinned against the wall
"What happened!" Some of them gasped in disbelief
"Don't look!" A queen snapped at her kit, laying her tail over its eyes to shield it from the bloodshed.
"Tell them and accident occurred"
Wolfwhisper jumped back from the voice and looked around to see if anyone else had heard it, but they were all intent on Stormpelt.
Or atleast all but Shadowclaw.
He stood there, back facing towards her as he gazed out blankly
"Make something up" The voice spoke again
Like what? Wolfwhisper snorted internally
Oh Shadowclaw -My huge crush- Just magically became a kiling machine, and obliterated Stormpelt! Wolfwhisper scorned sarcastically
Even though she couldn't see her, Wolfwhisper could almost feel the silver cat roll her eyes
"See that boulder over there?"
Wolfwhisper gazed at the jagged boulder which had been dislodged from the upper rim of the camp during a storm a few moons ago.
What about it?
"Tell them it fell on Stormpelt, and Shadowclaw helped him pull it off, and that's how they got their wounds"
When Wolfwhisper gazed around at her clanmates, a sudden realization struck her
Wait why haven't I lost my memories too?
"That's not important. rightnow, you have to convince them! Quikly they're getting suspicious"
Wolfwhisper swallowed her uncertainty and guilt as she spoke up and delivered the false message.
She thought she saw Shadowclaw gaze at her, but it if he did, it was so swift she was sure she had imagined it.
. . . .
Once she had finished explaining, Cloudleaf had pushed past everyone and carried Stormpelt to his den with the help of Morningflower and Raspberrytail. Wolfwhisper eagerly followed them anxiety filling her towards her friend.
She gazed back to confirm that Shadowclaw was following to get checked too. The wound on his shoulder was rather large.
Wolfwhisper clenched her teeth when she looked behind her.
Cherrymist, Embershine, Silverfrost, Ravenwing and of course Featherflight were all crowding around the black-pelted tom. Their eyes shining as though they were ooking at a cat from StarClan
They have no idea what he is
I have no idea of what he is
Wolfwhisper let her eyes trail from all the She-cats to Shadowclaw
And an expression she had never seen him wear was painted on is face. He was just absently following. his mind someplace else as his eyes lost their mischievous shimmer
Instead, they were blank and filled with pain
The urge to just embrace and comfort him crashed over her like a wave, but all she could do was keep walking.
I hope he's okay
. . . .
