Bravepaw's P.O.V.
I let out an irritated hiss as I saw Smokepaw immerge from the bramble tunnel, a huge squirrel clamped in his jaws, Banestep had gone out one a patrol early before I woke up and he still wasn't back, Frozentime had said that he was going hunting by himself, and that he'd probably be back before sunhigh an he wasn't. Sighing once more I dropped to the ground and rolled over on my back, then I spotted Sandpaw coming toward me, "Hey Sandpaw." I mewed rolling back over and standing up once more.
"Hi, um Bravepaw, I need to talk to you, and this time promise you won't go running to Banestep?" he mewed.
I felt the seriousness set in and I nodded, "I promise." I mewed.
"Well, lately I've been having these weird dreams, I've had them before though, just before Sparkclan launched there first attack on us. Now I'm having them again," he mewed, his pale blue eyes flashed with distress as he spoke about his recurring nightmare.
"What happened in the dreams?" I asked, not sure I myself wanted to know.
"Well, it's starts with me padding through unfamiliar landscape, and it's really dark. Then I start to hear a sound and start to go toward it, then I see figures of cats, figures that seem so familiar, charge toward and past me, they 're running from something terrible, then I hear a new sound and when I turn around I see a huge river of red sand flowing toward me. I never run from it, I just stand there and close my eyes, and when I open them the sand is going through me that it starts to gently pull me along, and- I- I- see the cat's that were running get swallowed but the sand," Sandpaw mewed, then paused for a second letting a shutter flow through his body, "I can always hear there last screams as they get swallowed up. And each time the sand seems to turn even more red." he finish, fear in his eyes.
"Sandpaw, you should tell Willowfrost about this, Starclans trying to tell us something," I mewed, my pale eyes locked with his identical ones.
"But if Starclan wanted to warn us of something, why don't they send the message to Willowfrost?!" Sandpaw cried out.
"I don't know," I admitted.
"It doesn't make any sense. Why send a sigh to me?" He asked.
"I don't know, we should say something to someone though," I mewed.
"You promised!" Sandpaw yelped, panic raising in his eyes.
"I'm not going to tell anyone if you're not alright with it." I said to him quickly, trying to calm him.
"No, you're right we should tell someone, but I just don't know who to tell, and I don't want to say anything to anyone until I know more, maybe- no wait there is not more Moonscare for us, what am I thinking?" he said, looking at his paws.
I touched my nose o his ear, "Don't worry, I'll wait until you're ready." I mewed, Sandpaw gave me a grateful look before being called away be Willowfrost. I let out a worried sigh as I watched him go the felt a nudge on my shoulder, I looked to see Maskedpaw, she had a playful glow in her eyes, "Hi, Maskedpaw," I greeted, Maskedpaw, all though she didn't even speak to me, was one of my closest friends, "you wanna come hunting with me? Banestep was supposed to take me but he hasn't come back yet." I mewed to her, she nodded, excepting my offer and together we padded out of camp.
Moonsong's P.O.V.
I stared at Banestep and Darkfeather in disbelief, "What were you two thinking!" I demanded, Banestep opened his mouth to speak, "no! I can't believe you two! Especially you Banestep! You're deputy!" I hissed at him.
Banestep's guilt turned into anger and he stepped forward, "This isn't my fault I didn't start this!" he snapped fury glazed over his white blue eyes.
"But you continued it Banestep!" I snapped.
Banestep turned his back on me, glancing back he mewed, "Not willingly." and turned and ran off, I looked to see Darkfeather had already slipped away and I ran after Banestep.
"Banestep wait!" I called, leaping I tackled him to the ground, he rolled over so that he was pinning me.
"No, you just jumped to conclusions with out even hearing what really happened, HE started an argument, HE attacked me, I fought back to keep from being killed." He snapped.
"Well if you were such a hot head all the time then I wouldn't have to always assume you start everything. Which you usually do!" I yowled back.
Banestep's claws dug into my shoulders as he glared back, " You know what fine, just go! Go with Darkfeather! I could care less!" he yowled, stepping off of me and turning away, I scrambled quickly to my paws.
"What do you mean?" I asked confusion clouding my brain.
"That whole fight began because we go into an argument about who you liked better, and it's obvious you like him better." he mewed, anger shaking his voice.
"What?" I mewed in disbelief, "Don't try and lie to me Banestep! I know about your affair with a Dustclan cat, I know you don't see me as anything more then a friend!" I snapped.
Banestep's face went from furious, to shocked, to one of grief, back to anger, and he whispered dully, "I ended things with her." he mewed.
I looked at him wide eyed and whished I could take back my words, "Banestep I-" I started but he cut me off.
"Just go! Get away from me!" he snapped.
"Bane-" I started but he cut me off.
"Leave me alone!" he hissed.
"Baneste-" I started , but he turned running from me, I watched him for a second and before I realized what I said it was out, "Banestep I love you!" I yowled.
Banestep stopped and turned, "I doubt that greatly." he spat and continued on, I watched in go, I could feel my heart snap in two.
"Banestep…" I whispered and I could feel hurt over whelm me I turned and ran in the opposite direction, sorrow blinding me as I ran aimlessly.
Spark's P.O.V.
I glanced at Sabriel in the gaining moonlight, which turned her pelt a slivery black color. She hadn't said a word sense we left, and we were almost all the way to the great cave, which was my destination, I looked ahead again and saw the huge caves mouth as we came before it, I turned to Sabriel, "You can come in or wait here." I mewed.
She was silent from a few more heart beats, then she looked from the caves moth to me, "I'll come." she said, I nodded and we both padded forward into the cave, walking it's many twists and turns until we came to the huge opening were the blood layered red scar, was engraved deep in the ground, I padded toward the red glow, Sabriel pressed against my should stiff with fear that she was trying to hide.
I crouched down in front of the scar, she mimicked me, I turned my head to face her, "I'm going to walk with Moonclan, so I'll be asleep for a little while, I advise you don't follow me there," I mewed to her, meeting her gaze for a second then turning back to the scar and resting my nose on it, for a second nothing happened, then I felt icy sleep wrap it's self around me.
I felt warmth flood through me as I returned form the sinister world ruled by Consequence, I felt Sabriel pressed close to my shoulder, her fear scent mixed with another scent washed over me, I saw gleaming eyes and recognized the smell of Fox, I rose to my paws, stepping in front of Sabriel in a protective manor, my hackle rising as I saw the ginger creature coming from the depths of the shadow to the area of moonlight, then the fox sprang forward, I let out a hiss of rage as I leapt into battle.
Sabriel's P.O.V.
I turned away from the vicious seen before me, I couldn't watch Spark get hurt, no matter how much I hated him, I would always seeing cats in pain even more, it was probably because I'd seen Night in pain when he died. I cringed as the smell of blood came over me and a horrible, screech was heard, I dared to look at watch happened and I saw the Fox laying motionlessly on the ground, I took a step toward it, "Spark?" I asked cautiously, there was not reply, "Spark? Don't play games with me!" I said, terror gripping me, I heard a low groan from the other side of the fox, I ran frantically over, jumping the fox I saw Spark laying on the ground bleeding from many deep wounds, all looking fatal, "Spark.." I whispered, horrified by the way this powerful cat looked so defenseless.
Spark looked at me, "Hey…" he rasped weakly.
"Why did you?" I trailed off.
"I don't know, guess you really are more then a tool of amusement to me." he said weakly, the his body jerked multiple times and there was a gagging sound in his throat then his body was still.
"Spark…" I whispered in disbelief, "Spark? Spark, Spark, Spark! SPARK!" I yowled as his death set in on me. I stared at his body for a few more seconds before, letting out a shaky sigh, I should probably bring his body to Sparkclan and let them know what happened, I thought then bent down latching my teeth into his scruff and pulled him carefully out of the cave.
Basilleaf's P.O.V. (Wow haven't seen him for a while)
I sighed as I sat in the shade of the makeshift camp just out side of the Shadyclan camp, the only thing I could think about was Sabriel and the kits, I'd been wondering where they were still alive, and where was Eagledawn? Some many question I needed answers to, "You're worried about Eagledawn and the rouge and your kits aren't you?" a mew came to me, I looked to see Jayflight approaching me, I nodded, "I don't know what I'd do if Butterflywing, and Duskwhispers were taken, I'd probably, dive into the river and die trying to cross it." he said his sliver eyes looking to the sky.
"I'm surprised I haven't done that yet." I mewed, following his gave to see the only cloud in the sky,
"You wouldn't do that, you're more rash them me, then most cats." he said, licking a paw and drawing it over his ear.
"You think?" I asked.
"No, I know." he responded, I stared at him for a second before I turned back to the sky.
"Maybe you 're right." I mewed to him.
