Peddlepaw twitched her ears cautiously as their mentors showed them where the Clan borders were. She could swear she saw a pare of eyes in the bush ahead of them, she then slowed her pace as her heart started to pound.

Sorreltail saw a swift glint of light in the bush ahead and trotted up to Thornclaw. She signaled him to a stop, and went up to whisper when she accidentally touched muzzles with him which made both their ears twitch uncomfortably, as Acornpaw giggled.

Then Peddlepaw rubbed against him worriedly as she stared at the bush. Both Thornclaw and Sorreltail laughed purposely to do payback on Acornpaw. Sorreltail looked at Peddlepaw's worried face and then remembered her needs.

"Thornclaw, I think we're being followed!" Sorreltail looked at the bush; the eyes weren't there any more.

Thornclaw opened his mouth, "Not followed, chased!"

All the cats picked up speed as they heard the sound of paws running behind them.

Acornpaw ran as fast as his legs would let him, he knew that if the tiniest hesitation, and he would be in trouble. They soon passed Owl Tree and Snake rocks. The Shadowclan group was slowing down but still only a fox length away. Almost to the camp Acornpaw let his guard down at his thought.

One warrior pounced on Acornpaw, Peddlepaw let out a shriek of terror as her very close friend was attacked. The Thunderclan cats skidded to a halt and ran to help Acornpaw, but Acornpaw seemed to not need any help, he was pushing his claws on his huge paws into the opponent. The attacker let out a squeal of shock and terror at the apprentices strength and darted off. In the distance the other Shadowclan warriors charged at Acornpaw, and him not being able to dodge anything yet, was wounded.

Thornclaw and Sorreltail quickly ran to Acornpaw's aid. But there was to much of the Shadowclan warriors.

Just then some Thunderclan warriors ran to the dawn patrol's aid, Firestar leading.

The Shadowclan warriors were chased off, and another patrol full of strong warriors was sent out to make sure that Shadowclan had left.

(An. I know, it's short. Sorry)
