A cold half-moon shone in the sky, shadows danced through the wavering branches. One large dark shape crept towards the only bit of moonlight in the clearing, dark amber eyes slightly glowing in the dark. But beside the shape emerged a smaller one, the larger shadow turned its gaze to follow the smaller one.

The black silhouette of a cat stepped up onto a boulder that remained hidden, golden eyes glittering as a tortoiseshell face poked out into the moonlight.

In front of the cat, were large boulders bathed in silver moonlight. Stars twinkled in the dark sky above them, and across the river at one end were eyes that shone staring back. the tortoiseshell tom raised his tail into the air as cats on the other side dived into the river, emerging on the opposite bed closer to the rock.

And with one swift movement, the shadows burst and silhouettes of cats rushed towards each other. Claws unsheathed and glittering in the moonlight, as they were soon stained crimson red.

The large shape emerged a dark brown tabby, his amber eyes glittering with not fear…

Not concern…

But excitement!

The tom grinned and raced forward into the midst of yowling, fighting, and biting cats. He latched onto one said enemy cat, claws digging in deep as the drenched cat yowled out in pain. Writhing and struggling in the grip of the tom's unusually long and sharp claws, he turned his attention from the prisoner and raced towards one of the cats. A reddish brown tom…

"Oakheart!" he screeched, latching onto the tom and pinning him down. "How dare you attempt to hunt on our territory, the SunningRocks belong to ThunderClan!"

The reddish brown tom gave a cocky smile back. "After tonight Tigerclaw, these will be just another RiverClan hunting grounds."

"More RiverClan warriors coming!"

Tigerclaw raised his black muzzle to see dark shapes emerge from the river, and rushing themselves into battle without even bothering to shake the water out of their fur.

The dark brown tabby strengthened his grip on Oakheart before turning his gaze back to the reddish brown tom. "You may swim like otters, but you and your clan do not belong here!"

At the sound of a she-cat in distress the large dark brown tabby raised his head. A dusty brown she-cat was pinned underneath a RiverClan warrior, water dripping from his open jaws as he lunged for the she-cat's neck. She squealed for help once again, wriggling and writhing underneath him.

Tigerclaw released his grip, and ran towards the RiverClan tom. his massive paws shoved the enemy warrior off of her back, rearing his head he yowled. "Get out of here, Mousefur!"

The small dusty brown she-cat struggled to her paws, before immediately fleeing the battle. Tigerclaw faced the RiverClan warrior just in time as he slashed open Tigerclaw's nose.

Blinded by blood, tigerclaw did not care. He yowled and lunged straight for the warrior, striking him on the shoulder with his sharp claws. The RiverClan warrior reared back and yowled, before fleeing back towards the river.

"Tigerclaw, this is useless. There are too many RiverClan warriors!"

Tigerclaw turned his head, the tortoiseshell tom who called the attack was standing up on a stone. He quickly leaped up beside the tortoiseshell and growled. "No Redtail, ThunderClan must never retreat!" the blood still flowing from his muzzle caught his attention, and he shook his head to clear it away.

The tortoiseshell tom looked at him, flicking his distinct ginger tail. "ThunderClan will honor your bravery Tigerclaw, but we can't afford to lose any more warriors. We will get another chance to avenge this defeat."

Tigerclaw growled, his pelt bushing. But he held his tongue as redtail raised his muzzle. "Retreat! ThunderClan, Retreat!"

All the ThunderClan warriors turned their heads at this call, and one by one they rushed towards the warriors. Confused at first, the RiverClan warriors watched them leave. Then Oakheart raised his muzzle and let out a victorious yowl that the other RiverClan warriors echoed across the clearing.

Redtail looked down at the assembled cats below him, before flicking his tail and leading the way through the forest. The other cats followed out of sight, but tigerclaw had his attention focused on the blood stained clearing. with a growl he turned tail and he followed the rest of the clan, his dark tabby tail flicking behind him.


A/N: So yes I did some cleaning up, and yes I do have "Cats across borders" and "The Heart of a Flame" and "Where do we go from here?" to work on, and yes I have posted a story with the same name before. but this time I focus more on Tigerclaw, and there isn't a prophecy that would give away Ravenpaw as a key player to Bluestar and Spottedleaf.

Chao!
