Gorsewing hissed to Lilyslip and his two kits to hide in the tunnels. Rowanlight tackled a ShadowClan she-cat Gorsewing recognized as Ivyclaw. He jumped infront of Heatherpool's den and protected it, lashing at any enemy that tried to attack him. Patchstar was across the clearing, slicing Waspstar's belly through the middle and toppling the leader over. Cloudclaw was fighting with Brightclaw, and she clawed his ear.
Her claws raked his eyes, and she grabbed one of his flailing paws in her mouth and dragged the tom down. He slipped away and ran. Rowanlight was still battling with Ivyclaw. He snapped at her neck, showing no mercy. He raked his claws on her spine before clawing her nose, glaring at her as she fled. Waspstar yowled, and his warriors retreated, leaving the blood-soaked clearing.
Suddenly, Longfur ran into camp, his eyes wide with fear. "Lilyslip, Lilyslip is dead!" He yowled. The clan looked at him, and they say his long gray fur caked with dirt. Antkit was behind him, but Applekit was nowhere. "Where Applekit?" Gorsewing meowed. "I-I saw Feathersong take her." He croaked before collapsing.
Applekit struggled in Feathersong's grip. "Let me go, you foxheart!" She yowled, her voice squeaking. "Feathersong, why did you le-" Ivyclaw began, but stopped when she saw Applekit. "Th-hats..." Waspstar padded to her and inspected the kit. "Its clearly a Windclan kit. Applekit I presume." He meowed. "Good job, now, send Russetfoot to get Antkit."
Russetfoot snuck into the nursery, where Antkit was shivering and stiffling a sob in his sleep. A claw mark was on his flank, just beginning to scab over. He quickly picked up Antkit and ran back to camp. Waspstar grinned sickeningly, and directed Antkit to the nursery. Feathersong grinned, and murmured into Applekit and Antkit's ears. "You're my kits now."
In the morning, a yowl shook the pines. Feathersong had given birth to two kits, and the pain she felt was overwhelming. It soon died away, and she curled around them. Two brown tabbies. A male and a female. She sighed before letting sleep take over.
