1Chapter 26
Echostar tore through the entrance to the Thunderclan camp. Just as she had expected, the battle had already started. Her patrol, Brambleclaw, Leafpool and a big Shadowclan patrol was following her.
"Come on," she yowled, and charged straight into battle. She spotted Stardream helping Eaglewing up, both were bleeding from the neck. She saw Firestar cornered with three rogues surrounding him.
She saw Darkstar laying, stunned, near the elders den. Echostar ran straight toward the three cats that cornered Firestar. She knocked the first cat out of the way and pinned the second cat down.
Firestar sprang at the third cat and pinned him down, before sinking his teeth deep in the cats throat. "So Shadowclan agreed to help us, this once," Firestar mused, padding over to Echostar.
"It wasn't that hard," Echostar shrugged, "Blackstar had already thought about his decision."
Firestar nodded and looked around at the battle going on around them. Echostar followed his gaze to Wolfsong, who was padding beside Stardream.
Stardream was leaning against him, blood trickling down from the wound in her neck.
"It's surprising that Stardream can still fight with a wound like that," Firestar murmured, but Echostar sensed something else.
"You know about those two, don't you?" she asked.
Firestar sighed, "I've always known, the way she looks at him at gatherings, when she sneaks out of camp, I know she goes to see him," he meowed.
"I've always known as well, I'm her mother, I should know these things," Echostar meowed, "Wolfsong and Stardream has always been in love, since even before Sapphireclan was destroyed, then I didn't care."
"Because then they were in the same clan, unlike now," Firestar finished for her.
"What are you going to do about them?" Echostar asked.
"Nothing right now, we have a battle to worry about," Firestar meowed, with that, he leaped back into battle.
Echostar sprang at the tortoiseshell shape of Creekfur. "Echostar!" Creekfur hissed, clawing Echostar.
"Is that the best you can do?" Echostar hissed, clawing him above the eyes. Creekfur hissed in pain and dropped back down on all fours. Echostar leapt on top of him and pinned him to the ground.
A cry of pain tore through the sounds of battle. But the battle just got louder and Echostar didn't know where the cry was coming from.
Firestar continued to fight, clawing at all the enemies that came near him. He spotted Stardream and Eaglewing slumped against a tree with the gray shape of Wolfsong and the white shape of Angelfeather standing over them.
He felt pain in his side as a rogue sliced his skin. He whirled around to find he was surrounded by five rogues.
Starclan, help me, Firestar prayed, backing into the rocks below the highledge. One rogue leapt and Firestar sent him flying away, but another rogue took his place. Though he kept on fighting, there were just to many odds.
One cats leapt forward and pinned Firestar to the ground while the other clawed at his neck.
"You could have died without suffering if you had just handed those pathetic cats over, now you will die in pain," one rogue hissed, digging his claws into Firestar's neck.
Firestar let out a cry of pain, but soon fell into a deep darkness.

When Firestar woke, he knew he was in Starclan. He glanced around, "Bluestar, Yellowfang, Spottedleaf," Firestar yowled.
The blue gray shape of Bluestar padded toward him. "Welcome Firestar, you have lost another life, now you only have four lives left," she meowed.
Firestar nodded, "I know," he meowed. "Firestar," the familiar shape of Yellowfang meowed, "we have a message for you."
"What, now?" Firestar gasped, he has never received a message when he loses a life.
"Firestar, The skies will come to combat the incoming darkness, but only one will rise to defeat it," Bluestar whispered, and her words were almost lost in the blowing wind.
"What do you mean?" Firestar meowed, in confusion.
"We cannot tell you more, you must go back to your clan, they need you," Yellowfang meowed.
Then the voices of the Starclan cats faded away, leaving Firestar in darkness.
