THINGS CAN BE RE-ARRANGED! IMPORTANT: Here's the list of the chosen ones in the sequel, including their friends and where they're from...the next chapter will be the last btw, BUT, there will be an Epilogue!
WindClan: Angelpaw(she-cat), Lunarpaw(she-cat). ShadowClan: Melodicpaw(she-cat), Sorrowpaw. ThunderClan: Solarpaw(tom), Lightpaw(tom). RiverClan: Silentpaw(tom), Shadowpaw(she-cat)Friends: Faithfulpaw, Crystalpaw, Softpaw, Starpaw
The four leaders lunged towards Blazestar, claws out-stretched, fangs glistening. They tackled Blazestar to the ground, clawing him and biting him. Flame-colored, golden spotted, brown, dark ginger, and more flaming fur flew out of the ball of battling cats.
Aquamoon nearly cheered aloud in triumph. Firestar, Leopardstar, Onestar, and Russetstar were winning! But she had judged the scene too early. The Clan leaders retreated, thinking they had already won...but it was definatley not so.
Blazestar's pelt quivered slightly, with a roar like the mighty cats of LionClan, he pounced to his paws, giving all of them a heart attack. He grinned wide, revealing long, keen, fangs that didn't even seem possible the exsist.
"TIGERSTAR, HAWKSTAR, WATCH ME NOW!" Blazestar bowled Firestar to the ground, Firestar replied by spitting into his face. Blazestar sneered, and with such a swift movement, he tore his claws down Firestar's underbelly.
An ear-piercing wail erupted from his throat. With a final jerk, the chosen one from long ago...joined the ranks of StarClan, all his remaining lives swept away. "H-how c-could y-you?!" Onestar stammered, his eyes widend to full moons.
Firestar's death had happened too fast, Onestar blaming himself for being so frightened of Blazestar's sudden move as to be frozen to the spot. "Anybody else?" Blazestar hissed in laughter, "I enjoy watching your pain...perhaps later."
Onestar's whole body quivered with rage, "I won't let you're joy stay forever..." Tears poured down his cheek before he threw his head back and yowled out, "FOR FIRESTAR!" And with that, the tabby tom launched himself at BlazeTribe's leader.
Onestar ripped his claws harshly and furiously at everything underneath him. Blazestar was underneath, struggling to get the upper paw. Finally he head-butted Onestar from below, sending him flying into a patch of thorn bushes.
A booming crash was heard, including muffled squeals of protest and agony.
Then there was dead silence.

Aquamoon felt as if a whole team of badgers had bit or clawed her chest's flesh and sliced her heart. There, before Blazestar, were the bloody corpse of four leaders, the bravest, the ones who had sacrificed a normal life to lead their Clan.
Minnowstar, he had been leader for so little time, but was still a legend in some way. He had suffered in RiverClan with Hawkstar, being threatened to no end, just like the cat in ThunderClan, who had left to become a loner.
Firestar, he was the chosen one. The fire who saved all Clans from the evil paw of Tigerstar, had saved them from BloodClan, and many, many other dangers. He was the first kittypet to enter, underestimated by all, but became great.
Onestar, Firestar's good friend. He had been chosen by Tallstar at the last minute, with his last breath. Everyone had doubted, but it was true, he was loyal and humorous too. Though he had been arrogant as a new leader, he would be remembered by all.
Russetstar, like Minnowstar, had been leader for such a short time. She had stepped up to protect her Clan by fighting against the previous FireClan and joining ThunderClan. Blackstar was wise when he had appointed her as deputy.
Aquamoon thought about their life, as she scanned the peaceful expressions on their faces. With tears welling up in her ice-blue eyes, she collapsed and cried her heart out, not caring at all if Blazestar could hear her.
Aquamoon wept, wept and sobbed, throwing out her emotions in crystal drops of tears. Was this the end of four Clans? Would they now be forever ruled by Blazestar? She asked herself all of those questions as she continued to cry.
"What are you doing here!?"
Aquamoon raised her head slowly, her icy gaze meeting a burning, fiery one. Suddenly, all her anger and sorrow rushed into her senses as she hissed into his face and shoved him onto the ground, "YOU KILLED THEM!"
"With the power of LostClan." Aquamoon's angered fire flickered to a stop. "LostClan?" She repeated, her curiousity taking the better of her. "Yes, LostClan, where all the wonderful and powerful cats go, like Tigerstar.
"They spoke to me, and chose me to take over all of you, and do what they had tried, they gave me their power, their trust and speed, thinking...no...knowing that they would definatley win with the powers combined into one cat."
Realisation crept into her thoughts, "Thats why he's so powerful! And extra ambitious..." "D-do...do you get nine lives from them too?" Aquamoon dared to ask in a low whisper, "No." She inwardly smiled, it might be a bit easier to defeat him...
"They give ten lives." Aquamoon's heart nearly skipped a beat, "Excuse me...WHAT!?" Blazestar smirked, "You heard me sister, I lost one life now, so I still have nine left, including extra strength, speed, and a quick-thinking mind."
Aquamoon flinched when he said the word 'sister'. "I can still defeat you with the power of StarClan." She growled, unsheathing a claw and pushing it onto his throat, "Though StarClan is half-helpless, they have enough power to overpower LostClan."
Aquamoon continued, trying to convince herself as much as proving it to Blazestar. "And they will help me bring peace to the forest, once and for all."

As if on que(AN: spelling mistake?), Stormingblizzard burst out of the thickets of the forest,
"Aquamoon--." His voice stopped short as he saw his mate and his leader snarling at eachother. Dirty looks of defiance passed through the siblings locked gaze. "Go and fight, and help restore the forest to its normal ways."
Stormingblizzard nodded to the soft voice of Spottedleaf, "StarClan, please be with me." He muttered under his breath when he saw Aquamoon somehow became the one underneath her brother. "I will fight for her and with her."

Aquamoon raised a claw and slashed Blazestar's face. Blazestar seemed not to notice, but leaned forward and pushed all his weight onto her. She struggled to hold up that much weight, beads of sweat pouring down her forehead in little streams.
Aquamoon gritted her teeth and swiftly thought of a plan, then, she half-smiled and quickly slipped from under him before he could fall ontop of her. Blazestar dropped onto floor, landing on his belly and his four legs sprawled out from under him.
Aquamoon grinned, still knowing she couldn't win that easily, but glad she had found a solution incase that happened again. Blazestar grunted and scrambled up into his paws, growling fiercily. His sister replied by mimiking him.
Blazestar never lost his cool demeaner as he stood their in battle-ready stance, not budging any part of his body...not even blinking. Aquamoon tried her best to hold onto her wits, but his long stare was too much.
Aquamoon leaped onto his back, ready to claw his spine. Suddenly, a creamy gray blur whooshed past her and instantly rushed back to her side. "Stormingblizzard!" She cried in joy, ready to tell him all about the secret battle of the leaders.
Stormingblizzard flashed a handsome smile and added under his breath, "Pay attention he's about to--" Aquamoom knew it was too late the minute Blazestar began to buck. She was flying up and down on his back.
Her whole body was vibrating crazily. Aquamoon shrieked when he threw his back onto the ground(AN: like a horse trying to unmount his rider...)her form was being crushed. She could see her blood trickle down her side and fall to the grass...
