Most chapters won't be in this format. But I can't just start with cats randomly appearing and having a second chance, I need to explain why each cat got a second chance. So most chapters will be longer, not in small sections, and will be taking place at the same time. Also when their names are in bold it means that it is in their point of view. I hope you like the prologue, I'll hopefully see you at the bottom ~ Leopardfang

(In the last battle, at Spottedleaf's second death)

Spottedleaf

I was drifting.

Drifting farther and farther away from reality. The only thing that was keeping me anchored was Firestar's soft cries. I caught a glimpse of those eyes, such a flawless and endless green, before my eyes slid closed of their own accord.

I could feel my body falling limp, yet I felt oddly detached. I felt as though it was a different she-cat laying limp on the ground, blood still pooling around her in scarlet rivulets.

I heard the cries fading and endless silence surrounded me, embracing me in its blissful numbness.

I knew this was the end.

This was the last time I would smell the sweet smell of pine. This was the last time I would carefully brush against Firestar's soft russet fur. This was the last time I would see Firestar stare at Sandstorm with love in his eyes.

This was the last time my heart got ripped from my chest with only a few words.

(At the battle between Onestar and Mudclaw.)

Mudclaw

It happened so fast.

A flash of scarlet. A high pitched yowl. A flash of bright light. A loud creak. A desperate scurry of paws. A loud hiss. An agonized scream. A flash of green and brown.

Then pain.

I had never felt so much pain. I had never had my breath catch as sharp agonizing pain exploded from every nerve in my body.

Then silence.

The hisses and yelps of war stilling to a stop, along with the steady drumming of rain.

Then she was there.

Ashfoot. Her sleek grey fur blowing in the wind. Her beautiful blue eyes shining in the shadows.

She had betrayed me.

She had said that she was going to fight for me. Fight for us. But she had been lying. She had pretended to love me, she had never actually loved me. How naïve I had been.

Hatred filled me. An undisputable rage. Why did I have to be betrayed by everyone?

I had been betrayed by Tallstar. I had been betrayed by Ashfoot. I had been betrayed by Hawkfrost. I had been betrayed by Onewhisker. I had been betrayed by my own clan. I had been betrayed by Starclan.

That was when I thought that maybe. Just maybe. I deserved to be nothing.

And so I was.

(In Starclan, right after Feathertail's death)

Feathertail.

I walked on the all-too-perfect grass, looking at the all-too-perfect cats that stood around doing nothing important. I didn't understand how they could be so happy and carefree while they watched cats suffer right below their paws.

Could they have let Snowfur enter Thristleclaw's dreams and save him from the darkness before it took over all rational thought with its rage? Yes, they could have, but did they? No.

Could they have given Hollyleaf powers, so that she and everyone else would be happier and everything would be simpler? Yes, they could have, but did they? No.

Could they have allowed Jayfeather to stay in the mountains with Half-moon, so that they could be happy and not heart-broken? Yes, they could have, but did they? No.

Could they have let Flametail be saved, so that he wasn't abandoned in Starclan? Yes, they could have, but did they? No.

So many hearts could have been saved before they were shattered.

And now I was forced to walk here. All alone on this perfect grass, forced to live among the cats that murder cats every day. Because they might as well have killed all of them and they would still be just as dead as before.

I released my claws and let them rip up the short vivid green sprouts, releasing a heartbroken sigh.

(At the dog attack)

Swiftpaw

I saw everything.

I saw how my love's bright green eyes widened in fear. I saw how her, Brightpaw, ginger and white tail would around my left paw, searching for help against the endless terror that made her body shake like a leaf in the wind. I saw how she was violently jerked away from me. I saw the scarlet liquid splattered on the ground by my feet.

I also heard everything.

I heard the sharp agonizing scream that was suddenly cut off. I heard the tearing that came from her flesh. I heard the growling that seemed to shake the ground. I heard her screech my name in a panic.

I pounced.

I landed on its large back. My claws tore at its thick hide. My teeth sunk deep into its neck, causing a bittersweet metallic taste to fill my mouth.

I heard a thump and saw a flash of ginger and white that told me that the huge dog had dropped Brightpaw. But now his attention was focused on me, and I felt his muscles tense beneath my paws. It roared and my whole body vibrated. It shook, and I barely kept from slipping off. It roared again and shook even harder. I slipped from its back and fell into a heap at its paws.

It bent down and I tried to move, but it was to fast. It's huge muzzle opened and it's large teeth sunk into my stomach. Blood flew everywhere. The warm scarlet liquid stained my white and black fur, and puddled around my paws as I managed to stand weakly.

It removed its muzzle and I saw a pair of cruel dark blue eyes before I found that it had sunk it's teeth into the scruff of my neck and lifted me up. It shook his head and I caught sight of a limp and blood coated ginger and white body laying a few feet away.

I flew from its jaws, leaving a huge chunk of my back behind. I hit a tree with a lot of force and crumbled limp to the ground underneath it.

I saw that the dog leaned over Brightpaw. She was looking up with only one bright green eye, the whole other side of her face was so blood-soaked that I couldn't even see her other eye. It leaned closer, it's muzzle nearing her vulnerable neck.

"NO!"

I didn't even realize I had pounced again until I felt its blood splattering all over my face from where I had savagely ripped its throat out. It collapsed and fell to the ground, me barely jumping off its back in time to not get squashed.

I saw Brightpaw still on the ground where she had been thrown by the dog. Her eyes had closed and I had a brief moment of panic when I though she was dead. But sure enough she was breathing. Her unsteady breaths loud in the silence.

"Brightpaw?" I asked her. She opened her eye and shifted, leaving me seeing just how mauled her face was. I only got a quick glance though, because my vision had blurred and darkness lurked at the edges of it.

"I love you" I mumbled to the love of my life, before my life slipped away.

I really feel bad for Swiftpaw.

I almost cried when I wrote that part about Swiftpaw, of course I didn't cry 'cause I am heartless. Just kidding, I'm not completely heartless, I just act like it, sometimes. Wow I'm getting off topic.

Anyways, I also feel bad for Feathertail and Mudclaw and Spottedleaf. I know that there are more cats that deserve second chances but these are the ones that I chose. I will probably update soon with the first chapter, but don't get your hopes up, 'cause It usually takes me forever to update stories.~ Leopardfang
