Chapter 4: The loss of a Friend

Bluepaw stood there. She tried to move, but she couldn't move. She finally shook her head, and she unfroze. She bounded to the limp body.

"Fogpaw?" She meowed quietly, "Are you alive?" Fogpaw's body didn't move. Bluepaw flinched. She prodded Fogpaw with her cold nose.

"No!" She cried out.

Lionpaw leapt on a small vole. The vole saw the large cat coming, and scampered away. Lionpaw chased after it. He heard a cry…not just any cry, but Bluepaw's cry. His blue eyes widened. He left the vole, and went running towards his home.

Bluepaw took a paw backwards, and bumped into a solid figure. She looked up, and saw Whitestar. She jumped forwards with a hiss. Bluepaw unsheathed her claws, and dug them into the ground. She never wanted to kill anyone, but someone killed her brother, or her friends, she would certainly attack. Her eyes narrowed, and she lost control. Rage took over her, and she jumped from the ground, and on top of Whitestar. The white tom hissed in surprise.

"What were you thinking, murdering your own apprentice?" Bluepaw yowled.

"Now, now, don't jump to conclusions just yet" He spat. He rolled around, flattening the poor apprentice. Bluepaw slashed at him with her claws. She tried to bite his hindleg.

Lionpaw jumped in.

"What the! What are you doing, Bluepaw!" He yowled over the other cat's screeches of fury. He jumped back, as Bluepaw flew into the air. Bluepaw hit the ground. She growled softly, and got herself up. She targeted Whitestar, and bounded towards him. She hurled herself straight at his back.

Arrowtail woke up. He yawned, and suddenly remembered his dream. 'The forest shall waste, and the clans will turn black' the prophecy didn't make any sense to him, but he had to save the forest. He bounded towards a pile of rocks. He jumped on top of one, and searched for familiar grounds. He heard a growl behind him, and was tackled by a Riverclan she-cat.

Whitestar yowled in pain, as the blue cat slammed into his spine.

He collapsed on the ground, and growled, "I have nine---"

Bluepaw bit his ear, and scarlet blood dripped down the wound she had done. She shook her head, and came back. She looked down at Whitestar, his breathing getting shallow. Lionpaw watched in fear. He watched as his leader passed onto a new life. Bluepaw jumped off Whitestar.

"What have I done…?" She asked herself quietly, as she noticed that she had injured her leader.

"What happened?" She asked Lionpaw, desperately trying to find emotion in his eyes. He just shook his head, and padded away into the forest.

Whitestar's eyes shot open. Bluepaw turned around, and saw Whitestar back in action.

She hissed, and jumped backwards. A chilling wind blew, and rain started to fall. Bluepaw glared at her leader.

"Why'd you do it?" She yowled. Thunder rolled nearby, and the rain pounded on the ground. Whitestar leapt at Bluepaw, and tackled her to the ground. Bluepaw's body rolled slowly away, and her gaze turned black. She was unconscious, and she knew it.

Arrowtail growled, as the cat tackled him to the ground. He unsheathed his claws. His blood pumped through his veins, and he rolled over, landing on the light blue pelted she-cat.

"What are you doing on Riverclan territory?" She growled.

"The sunning rocks belong to Thunderclan!" He spat back. The she-cat let go of her grasp on him, and she sheathed her claws.

"Okay then, but Riverclan will get the sunning rocks!" She meowed. Arrowtail gazed at the she-cat. She sat down in her part of the forest. She started licking at her paws.

'What was that cat doing?' Arrowtail thought. He opened his jaws to say something, but he closed shut. He watched the she-cat groom herself.

Lionpaw glanced back at the entrance. He smelled fear, but it was probably Whitestar's. He caught a glimpse of white fur. Then the white dot, started getting closer, and he noticed that Bluepaw had failed to murder. He was happy with this, but why was Whitestar running towards him. His eye's widened with fear, as Whitestar leaped at him. He bounded away, and ran up a tree.

Arrowtail padded into the Thunderclan's forest. He looked everywhere, and then saw a small orange dot. He padded towards it, and stopped fast, as he noticed it was Lionpaw. Arrowtail gaped as he saw Lionpaw dangling above a tree branch waiting to fall. He tried to yowl for help, but he couldn't open his jaw. The branch snapped, and down came Lionpaw. Arrowtail heard a screech for help, but it was too late to save Lionpaw. Lionpaw was falling to his death, and Arrowtail couldn't do anything about it.
