Darkpaw

The Shadowclan cats weren't prepared for the attack. Darkpaw launched herself at a Shadowclan apprentice. She recognized Treepaw, the brown and white she cat. Darkpaw swiped at the apprentice's head. Treepaw jumped back and the blow never connected. Suddenly the brown and white apprentice disappeared. Darkpaw whipped her head around in confusion. She felt a heavy paw claw her spine. Darkpaw rolled onto her back and tried kicking Treepaw. Treepaw jumped into the air. Darkpaw thought fast and remembered the most recent battle move she learned. Treepaw landed on Darkpaw's stomach. Quickly Darkpaw latched her claws into the she cat and rolled her over so now Darkpaw was on top. Darkpaw gave the she cat a hard but quick bite on the shoulder before letting her go. Treepaw saw her chance and took off.

Darkpaw glanced at the battle raging in front of her. Cedarclaw was missing and Darkpaw guessed that he ran away. She felt a heavy paw club her in the back of her head. Darkpaw saw stars and Cedarclaw preparing to pounce. Darkpaw was too dizzy to remember any of the battle moves. She stood up on her hind legs and clawed at his face, but Cedarclaw keep coming back with heavier blows. Darkpaw slipped on the wet grass and prepared herself for Cedarclaw's next move. The blow never came and when Darkpaw looked up she saw a familiar black and white shape weaving in and out confusing the big tom.

"Go for his hind legs," Sleekpaw ordered.

Darkpaw nodded and summoned enough energy nip at his back legs while Sleekpaw was keeping Cedarclaw's attention on him. Darkpaw saw Sleekpaw push Cedarclaw back. Guessing what her brother's next move was she jumped onto the Shadowclan cats stomach when he tripped on a vine covered in thorns. Darkpaw clawed at the warrior.

"Ouch!" Darkpaw yelped .

Sleekpaw turned to his sister, "What happened?" He growled.

" Its my claw! It's stuck in Cedarclaw's fur! " Darkpaw meowed trying to tug her claw out. Sleekpaw ran over to her and pulled her claw out.

"Thanks! Now back to Cedarclaw..." Darkpaw snarled.

"Shadowclan retreat!" Grasstail yowled.

Cedarclaw looked at the apprentices then left.

"We showed them!" Sleekpaw meowed.

"Thanks for helping me! Without you I'd be Crow-food," Darkpaw said.

" Of course! That's what litter mates are for, " Sleekpaw meowed back.

Breezepelt trotted over to the apprentices, "Any injuries?" The tom asked, sniffing his half siblings pelt.

" Nothing too bad, my head won't stop ringing, " Darkpaw meowed, "And I lost a claw in Cedarclaw's pelt," Darkpaw held her paw up and blood was coming out of where her claw should have been.

"Pinefoot bit my ear! It's stings like fury!" Sleekpaw complained.

"You did well but it's still a while yet before you can become warriors," Smokeheart praised.

Darkpaw and Sleekpaw have a little skip of happiness that they won their first battle with minor injuries.

Silverpaw

Silverpaw was creeping slowly and silently to an unsuspecting thrush. Thrush aren't that common in Windclan territory, but Silverpaw saw no reason why she shouldn't try to catch the bird. A thrush would be a nice price of prey for Heathertail. She was in The woods by Thunderclan territory. The bird was eating seeds, unaware that he was being stalked. Silverpaw crouched down a little lower then pounced. The silver apprentice landed right on the bird. The prey made her mouth water as she carried it to her patrol who was waiting a few rabbit hops away. Silverpaw heard a bird call.

*Have I alarmed it?* Silverpaw wondered. She was still walking silently. Silverpaw decided to get out of these woods and find her patrol as soon as possible. Crowstar and Leafpool were on that patrol along with Furzepelt and Leafpaw. Silverpaw heard a stick crack from behind her. She put the rabbit down to sniff the air. She smelled a familiar scent. She whipped her head around just as a red blur launched at her.
