Cloverstar padded up to the head of the MoonClan patrol. He was face-to-face with an angry, snarling dog. The dog's hot breath was blowing over his face.
"Leave our territory now!" He snarled, his tail lashing back and forth. The dog hardly understood or cared for the tabby tom's words. It turned to face its pack.
"Pack! Kill, kill!" At once the pack raced forward towards the cats.
"Kill, kill!" They chanted as they sped towards the cats.
"Skypaw! Run and fetch some more warriors! We're in trouble!" A warrior named Whiteheart yowled.
The young smoky-brown cat bounded back to the MoonClan camp. We're greatly outnumbered…Cloverstar thought to himself as he clawed at the lead dog's eye, 3 cats to 7 dogs... StarClan, help us! Cloverstar ran towards another dog, and leaped onto its back. He raked his claws, leaving deep gashes into the dog's fur. Frightened, the dog ran. Cloverstar looked side to side and saw Hollytail cornered by two dogs. Using all his might he leaped in front of the dog. Cloverstar scratched its ear. It snarled at him, baring its huge teeth. He raised his paw and powerfully raked out its eye. It whimpered, and slowly backed away. Where is Skypaw? He wondered, trying to fend off another oncoming dog. The beast was much taller and stronger than the rest. It barked angrily at his face. Cloverstar hissed. However, just after he hissed, the dog barreled into him, knocking him over. The dog got up and seized the opportunity of Cloverstar's body still on the ground. It lashed out its paw and slashed his throat. Hollytail, standing nearby, stared in horror as she saw her leader black out. Cloverstar had lost a life. Hollytail whirled around, hearing the battle cry of Silverclaw. Help had finally come.
