In the End
(It starts with)
One
thing / I don't know why
It doesn't even matter how hard you
try
Keep that in mind / I designed this rhyme
To explain in due
time
All I know
time
is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch
it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away
It's so
unreal
Didn't look out below
Watch the time go right out the
window
Trying to hold on / but didn't even know
Wasted it all
just to
Watch you go
I kept everything
inside and even though I tried / it all fell apart
What it meant
to me / will eventually / be a memory / of a time when I tried so
hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
I
had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn't even
matter
One thing / I don't
know why
It doesn't even matter how hard you try
Keep that in
mind / I designed this rhyme
To remind myself how
I tried so hard
In
spite of the way you were mocking me
Acting like I was part of
your property
Remembering all the times you fought with me
I'm surprised it
got so (far)
Things aren't the way they were before
You
wouldn't even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back
then
But it all comes back to me
In the end
You kept everything
inside and even though I tried / it all fell apart
What it meant
to me / will eventually / be a memory / of a time when I tried so
hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even
matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It
doesn't even matter
I've put my trust
in you
Pushed as far as I can go I've put my trust in you
Pushed
as far as I can go
For all this
There's only one thing you
should know
I've put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can
go
For all this
There's only one thing you should know
I tried so hard
And
got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
I had to
fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
"Come brother," Hawkfrost meowed to Brambleclaw. "We must put the plan in action." Brambleclaw followed after his brother, feeling a wave of ambition wash over him. As he unsheathed his claws, a new feeling came over him.
Reluctance.

"Here is the plan. You ask Firestar to go on a patrol with you. Alone. Lead him to this spot. I will be waiting here with a few of my warriors. We will ambush him and kill him. Tell the cats back at camp that he was killed by rouges."
"But, what if someone, Squirrelflight, maybe, sees through the lie?" Brambleclaw couldn't help but ask.
"Kill any of Firestar's kin. Squirrelflight, Leafpool, Cloudtail, Sandstorm, kill them all."
Brambleclaw gasped in horror, and before he could stop himself, he leaped at Hawkfrost.

"No! I won't kill Squirrelflight!" Brambleclaw yowled as he tussled with Hawkfrost.
"Then you shall die as well!" Hawkfrost dug his claws into Brambleclaw's shoulder
Brambleclaw felt a wave of anger come over him. I'm so sorry, Squirrelflight! I should heave believed you!
I kept everything

Brambleclaw screeched as Hawkfrost bit down on his tail. He raised his claws and brought the down, raking them across Hawkfrost's throat. The younger warrior gasped, and began to flail around.
One thing / I

"You traitor!" Hawkfrost screeched. Brambleclaw stepped back as Hawkfrost's struggles grew weaker and weaker.
"I am no traitor. You are."
I'm surprised
it got so (far)
Things aren't the way they were before
You
wouldn't even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back
then
But it all comes back to me

"I trusted you." Brambleclaw meowed as Hawkfrost gave one last breath and died. "But I lo-love Squirrelflight." With that the brown warrior yowled his grief to the sky. Blood ran down the bank and trickled into the river, staining the water with ribbons of red.
I've put my trust
in you
Pushed as far as I can go I've put my trust in you
Pushed
as far as I can go
For all this
There's only one thing you
should know

As Brambleclaw padded back to camp, drenched in blood, the words of Leafpool's prophecy rang through his head.
"Blood will spill blood, and the lake will run red."
A/N: Hope u liked it. Yes, that is how I think the blood will spill blood prophecy will be fulfilled.
