"Are you mousebrained!?" Flame hissed. "We can't attack them! If they have a fighting force, They'll tear us apart!" Dream gazed at the flame colored tom. "I know, but we can warn them. When Flickerpaw and her army arrive, All the clans will be ready!"
Silence loomed over the group for a heartbeat, then Silver spoke up. "I think it will work, but someone must watch Flash. I don't think he can fight in a battle just yet." Just as she said it, there was a grunt behind them. It was Flash! "I allright." he muttered. "Just a bit battered."
Dream flung herself at the tabby tom with a purr. "Your okay!" She cried, relieved. Flash looked at her. "Yes, and I can fight alongside you." Jinx padded over to them. "We have to rest first," she pointed out. "We can't fight when we're tired." Dream nodded to the tortoiseshell. She seemed to enjoy the idea of her first battle.
"Well let's travel back now!" Flash meowed. "We have no time to lose." Showing that he ment it, Flash motioned with his tail for all the cats, even Emerald, to follow him. As soon as the arrived, every cat closed their eyes. There was a blinding flash, then all was still.

The full moon glistened down into the clearing as the group of cats padded to the island. Flash's eyes were silver in the moonlight. Dream fell close to him. "Do you think we'll win?" she whispered. The tom shrugged and glanced at her. "We have a slight chance, but you have to be careful. This will be dangerous, and I don't want to lose you."
Dream pressed her muzzel against his. "It's okay," she whispered. "You won't." As they arrived at the island, she heard all the cats hissing. Thats when she heard a gasp of astonshment. "Dreampaw?!" She saw a tom with icy blue eyes come forward. She reconized Soulcatcher.
"Flickerpaw told us you were dead!" the tom mewed. Dream felt her fur bristling, but she relaxed at flash lay his tail on her shoulder. "No, but my friends have come to warn you!" she mewed. "Flickerpaw will attack the clans." She looked up and saw Quailstar. The tabby leader was flexing her claws.
"Why are you lying? Flickerpaw is gone!" she hissed. Dream shook her head. "But it's true! We just-," She was cut off as a yowl sounded. Flickerpaw pushed her way to the front of the crowd. "Cat's of the clan, prepare yourselves! From now on, I'm in charge!" Quailstar stared at the tiny she-cat as Swift sat beside her.
"What is the meaning of this?" she screeched. Flickerpaw's green gaze shone with amusement. Without replying, she raised her tail. "Attack!" she yowled. Cats fanned out into the clearing and pounced on the warriors while Dream gasped. The clans were being attaked!
