Due to reader's demands, Clawpaw's name has been changed to Birchpaw. Just letting you know. Now read this chapter from Bone's point of view to find out a little more about an evil plot.

Bone

7 days from battle

"Only seven more days until we strike." The black and white tom meowed, his tail flicking with anticipation. "Yes, my dear Bone." A silver she-cat turned to face Bone. "I have asked you to bring some of your followers, are they here?"

Bone dipped his head "Yes, Luna. Shall I introduce you to them?" Luna's blue eyes gleamed "of course."

Bone led the silver she-cat to a line of Bloodclan cats, all of them standing with their tails erect. Luna padded up and down the line, observing all of the cats muscles, claws, will-power, finally she stopped at one golden tom.

"His name is Lion." Bone replied. "A strong one, isn't he." Lion's amber eyes glowed defiantly. "How did you get recruited Lion?" She asked him in a smooth voice. "I came here for love. Bone said he would spare the cat I loved." Luna tipped her head back in laughter and delight "Oh, what a dedicated mate!" The silver she-cat dropped her head again "We will make sure your mater is never touched." She promised in her soft voice.

Finally Luna paused. "I am satisfied with your work Bone. Now all of you, you will train here and be stronger and better then you were and are now. You will have the power to defend the ones you love from danger. Yes, I am proud to have you all supporting me." Luna turned to Bone and whispered "Have you seen, him yet?" Bone shook his head. "Not yet. He is as late as always." Luna sighed.

"I'm here!" A tom bounded towards Luna, his tail waving. "Sorry I'm late, we were almost discovered by someone, but we silenced him." Bone observed his blood-stained claws and suppressed a small shiver. "Good, Cedarfang." Luna smiled, "You are forgiven." Cedarfang dipped his head "Always an honor Bone." The black and white tom dipped his head back at the fellow commander.

"Now who have you brought?" The silver leader asked the tabby tom. "Shall I introduce them as their old names or their names now?" Luna thought for a moment then replied "Both." Cedarfang nodded.

"I have brought six cats, I have more but the cat we ran into sent a few back." Cedarfang padded in front of the six Nightclan cats.

"Red, Redfire. Main skills hunting and tracking."

"Lightning, Lightfire. Main skills fighting and speed."

"Swift, Swiftpaw. Main skills fighting and persuasion."

"Slash, Slashfang. Main skills fighting and brute force."

"Rain, Rainfall. Main skills hunting and stealth."

"Leopard, Leopardpaw. Main skills tree-climbing and swimming."

Luna looked at the bunch of cats with approval. "Good job Cedarfang. Now get all these cats training, You Bone and I have much to discuss." Cedarfang nodded. "Of course."

Sunset that night. (They came together at around 5:00 PM in human time)

"Who have we promised not to kill?" Luna asked the fellow two commanders. "Shard, Robinfeather, Ivoryheart, Tigerpaw, Shatter, Thunder, and Fang." Bone replied. "Good. Cedarfang, who is the deputy and leader of Nightclan now?" Cedarfang flicked his ears "Alpha and Night. Now Alphastar and Nightflash." Luna nodded. "Now, I'm about to tell you something that you must not repeat to anyone." Bone nodded.

"A few cats in Nightclan think that I have only two lives left. But they are wrong. I have five left." Cedarfang's ears shot up in surprise. "Since you two are my second in commanders I have jobs for you two to do. Bone, you must kill Storm. And Cedarfang, you must kill Breeze." Cedarfang meowed "She's Breezefur now." Luna nodded. Bone frowned "The medicine cats? Why?" Luna swiped at him, catching him in the cheek.

"Think about it mouse-brain! Without a healer they will be vulnerable!" Cedarfang replied, catching onto the idea. "What about the leaders?" Luna shook her head. "No, I will kill them myself when the time comes." The two commanders nodded. "Now, go help with the training. I have to think right now."

At moon-high that night

"You all have done well tonight. Remember, this is a secret." Luna praised the assembled cats. "Now, before you go, I must ask, what have you learned tonight?" When no cat spoke Luna encouraged them "Don't be shy."

"No mercy." Came a quiet meow rom the crowd. "Who said that?" Luna asked, her eyes sparkling. "I did." A young ember grey tom stepped forward. ""Ah, Swiftpaw. I agree, no mercy with your enemies. In the battle it is kill or be killed."

"Never turn your back on an enemy!" Swiftpaw's sister, Leopardpaw stepped forward, adding on.

"Always aim for the eyes!" A tom, Blood, yowled. Soon all the cats were yowling, and Luna smiled. "Yes yes, good! Keep learning. I am very proud, everyone is dismissed." As the cats left the clearing Bone heard several comments.

"That was great, we should go again!" Bone recognized the ginger she-cat as Redfire, a Nightclanner. "Yeah, they teach us moves!" Swiftpaw swiped the air for emphasis, grinning."

Bone stopped listening and padded to his silver leader. "I will kill Storm tonight. It will look like an accident." Cedarfang nodded. "Same for Breezefur. I promise you, Luna, we will be ready when the time comes." Luna nodded and dismissed them with a flick of her tail.

Laaaater that night

"Storm, I must show you something." Bone called into the medicine cat's den, urgently. "What is it Bone?" The grey she-cat poked her head out. "I have seen something that I think you should know. The twolegs are involved." Storm nodded and followed Bone out of camp.

"Now where is this thong you must show me?" Storm asked after a while of walking. "Over around that corner." Bone meowed, and Storm, unknowingly walked right into a huge angry dog. Storm let out a wild screech as the dog sank its teeth into Storm's neck, and shook her like prey.

"Bone! Help me!" Storm yowled, swiping the air in vain trying to get free. "Not today Storm." Bone snarled, watching the grey she-cat finally grow limp in the dog's jaws.

"Mission accomplished Luna." Bone hissed and then walked away.

Meanwhile in Nightclan's camp

"Psst, Breezefur." Cedarfang crouched in front of Breezefur's den. "What is it Cedarfang? And why are we whispering?" The black she-cat poked her head out of the den. "I found some type of herbs I need to show you." Breezefur frowned "Why can't you show it to me in the morning?" Cedarfang hissed "Because a Bloodclan cat might take it, the herbs are near the border." Breezefur nodded knowingly. "Right, let's go."

As they left camp sharp sky blue eyes noticed them leaving and followed them.

"We are almost at the border." Breezefur meowed, stopping. "Yes, we are here." Cedarfang paused, slowly unsheathing his claws. "What is it Cedarfang? Do you sense anythin-" Suddenly the brown tom pounced on her, but the black she-cat had quick reflexes and drove her claws into his flank. "You traitor!" In a flash a brown tabby tom had tackled Cedarfang off.

"Quillstorm!" Cedarfang snarled and sank his teeth into his forepaw, tearing the flesh. "Reow!" Quillstorm reared, wrenching his paw out of the tom's grip, unknowingly exposing himself. "Got you, you little rat!" Cedarfang snarled and sank his teeth into Quillstorm's neck, but a force yanked him away.

He spun around, facing Breezefur his hackles raised. "Why Cedarfang?" Breezefur's eyes darkened. "For justice." He replied then lunged and sank his teeth into her neck, aiming for the artery. He knew his success immediately as he tasted the warm metallic sense of blood. Cedarfang hurled the black she-cat into a tree, and Quillstorm charged at Cedarfang again. "Breezefur!"

After some mad fighting he finally had the younger tom pinned underneath his long claws. "I believe you would make a good hostage." Cedarfang purred silkily, then hit the tom hard in the head knocking him out.

Wow, epic betrayals. Also, I was wondering, could cats tie up other cats? XD I mean like I know that humans do, but can cats like, tie up and gag another cat? Maybe the could get a choke collar on him since some are Bloodclan but, hmm. Anyway Quillstorm is heading into some trouble. I love surprise villain POV. Plot twist, not a big one. Actually none, but I am open for suggestions! Also, a sequel is slowly weaseling its way into my mind, featuring the one and only, hopefully, Ivoryheart and Quillstorm's kits! :P I hope. If Quillstorm doesn't die first. But enough spoilers, review!
