Untold Lies Chapter 17: The Final Battle! Arrowhead vs Nightsign
Time for the main event! I hope this chapter is ok.
Arrowhead stood in the entrance of Echo Cave. The sun peeked over the horizon and the entire clan gathered around. "Come back alive." Liontooth said with a hint of anxiety in his voice.
"Please come back alive." Greyfur asked.
"Don't just save your clan, but all the clans." Stoneshade said as he bowed his head. "I expect to see you alive."
Lightheart, Thundertail, and Lilystorm gathered around him. "Be careful and aim for the throat." Thundertail said.
"And don't forget who you're fighting." Lightheart added. "He challanged you, don't fall for his tricks."
"You made us a promise. Come back alive or I will personally hunt your spirit down and kill you myself." Lilystorm encouraged in her own way.
Arrowhead nodded without saying anything. His head swirled with memories and he remembered that his Warrior Spirit is his best weapon and that he had all of Starclan and his friends with him. "Goodbye everyone. Time to end this." He turned to Echo Cave, which radiated a dark energy and plunged into it. He turned back to see his friends fade away. He focused on one direction in the pitch black cave until he felt him standing a couple of tail lengths away.
"You came. Good, now I can kill you and claim Echoclan as my own!" Nightsign gloated as he appeared in the darkness.
"I'm not going to let that happen." Arrowhead growled. He spiked his fur and unsheathed his claws.
"I want too see if you have become stronger. Change this place. Use it to your advantage! I am already dead, you can't kill me." Nightsign mocked.
"At first, I would have said the same. But I have the ability to destroy and crush memories." Arrowhead explained. "I can also control and walk through memories, and that's all you are. A memory."
"Then fight!" At that Nightsign launched himself at Arrowhead. Arrowhead thought of the forest and a tree appeared in front of him to protect him. Nightsign hit the tree hard but it barely fazed him. "Is that all you can do?"
Arrowhead thought of the island back at the lake and Nightsign fell into the water. This is too easy Arrowhead thought to himself. At that moment he felt dead grass under his paws and dark trees loomed all around him. The dark forest! Arrowhead remembered not to run in fear but wait instead. The forest shifted all around him in darkness. Arrowhead thought of Streak's mountain fortress but nothing happened. I'm not strong enough! Why! Arrowhead thought to himself, shocked. His hope began to fade with every heart beat. "What's the matter Arrowhead? Are you not strong enough to change my memory?" Nightsign's voice rang throughout the forest.
Arrowhead tried thinking of a way out of here but Nightsign did not wait. Arrowhead felt the ground give way underneath him. Arrowhead grasped the forest floor but the hole in the ground expanded and his claws had nothing to latch on to. The hole swallowed him and darkness was all he saw. He felt as if he was endlessly falling, head first; nothing was around him. Is this is the end? Arrowhead thought to himself as he fell, never feeling the ground.
Lucky for Arrowhead, this is not the end. His missing link will come to him in the next chapter and then the real fight will begin.
