The Heart of a Thorn
A/N: Special thanks to Rapidfire! You gets a plushie of Firestar ripping Onestar to shreds with his hind claws XD enjoy the chapter and R&R.
"Get all the kits in the nursery NOW!" Firestar yowled above all the cats. Ashheart hurried her kits into the nursery and Thornclaw nodded as Brightheart slid in after her. Daisy and Millie lay inside the nursery to. Nightcloud yowled in fury and leapt on Squirrelflight. 'To bad your sister isn't here, I would have preferred her, but I guess you will do for now until I capture that traitor!" She hissed in Squirrelflight's ear. Squirrelflight tried to shake her off, but she dug her nails into her skin making Squirrelflight yowl in pain. Nightcloud flipped her over and then placed her paw on her throat. "Greet starclan for me." Then a grey shape slammed into Nightcloud and she yowled in surprise. Ashfur bowled over Nightcloud and bit into her neck, hard. Ashfur looked over at Squirrelflight with love in his eyes and leapt onto another cat. Firestar had pinned Onestar on the highrock, remembering what Scourge had done to him, making him lose his first life of a clan leader. Firestar looked at Onestar and unsheathed his claws. Making a clean swipe, he sliced Onestar's throat. Onestar bared his teeth in a snarl, but it was slurred by the blood that oozed from his neck wound. Firestar knew that Onestar would return after losing a life ready to fight in the battle.
. . .
Jayfeather stood in the middle of the cats: Mousefur, Longtail, Silverstream and Bluestar. "They cannot fight like this anymore." Bluestar hissed. "Tallstar must tell him to stop this! If not, I'll do it myself!" Bluestar arched her back. Silverstar spoke. "What he did at the gathering was wrong. " All cats mewed in agreement. Jayfeather stared at them blankly. "What exactly am I supposed to do then?" Bluestar rested her gaze on him. "Help us." She said simply. "How!" Jayfeather's pelt bristled with anger and frustration. Bluestar's scorching gaze went right through him. "We must stop the fight, and Tallstar must do it himself." Jayfeather looked puzzled. "He should be telling Onestar now." He said. Bluestar nodded but didn't say anything. Her blue eyes still burned.
. . .
Onestar arched his back at Tallstar. "We should not stop fighting!" he spat. Tallstar's pelt bristled and he unsheathed his claws. (Interesting battle, let's see who wins!) "Thunderclan have not done anything to you for you to attack them!" Tallstar hissed angrily. Onestar's eyes turned ice cold. "You were always friends with Thunderclan, well I learned we couldn't be friends. The clans had always laughed at us for befriending a clan of kitty-pets!" tallstar's eyes blazed and he leapt on Onestar. "You fool!" he spat. "Thunderclan have always helped us in the past." Onestar scraped his claws down Tallstar's side. Tallstar didn't make a sound. "You will drive your clan into exctintion if you keep battling like this. Too many battles and cats will start leaving the clans, like Crowfeather and Leafpool." Tallstar snarled. Onestar's eyes clouded with grief for a second, and his mew was quiet. "I know Firestar helped us a lot, but my clan cannot accept his help anymore, not after Crowfeather and Leafpool." Tallstar sat up and flexed his claws. "Then you're a fool!" And he stalked away. When Onestar woke up again, the scent of Shadowclan had welcomed him back. My clan will have to fight harder now. Nightcloud rolled in a tussle with Squirrelflight, again. There was no sign of Breezepelt, until he bolted out of the nursery, a brown kit in his teeth. "My kit!" A brown queen was yowling. Then a warrior Onestar knew a Thornclaw, raced after him in anger and leapt on him pinning him down and snatching the kit up. He put the kit down and turned to Breezepelt and tor his throat out. "You stole my kit." Thornclaw spat at him as the light in Breezepelt's eyes died. Nightcloud caught sight of his dead body and howled in grief and rage, silencing the fighting. "BREEZEPELT!" she yowled. Heathertail looked at him, grief shining in her eyes. Lionblaze stood near Cinderheart, their pelts touching for comfort. Nightcloud buried her head into his fur. "My baby, my poor baby." She whimpered. Onestar stood frozen on the spot, Firestar's eyes burned into the back of his head. "This is your fault. This was not supposed to happen between Thunderclan and Windclan." Nightcloud looked up and her battle raged face looked at everycat in the clearing. Then her gaze rested on Onestar. "You!" She spat at him. "This is your fault!" Her pelt began to bristle and she bared her teeth at him in a furious snarl.
A/N: That was a fun chapter to write! My fav XD Breezepelt died, but really I do feel sorry for him which is why I wrote a oneshot about him when I first joined FF. Please R&R.
