Silverheart the Cat: I know. I rushed her understanding of the prophecy by accident, but it doesn't really matter to the story that much.

Thank you so much for the reviews, favorites, and follows! Every one of those that I get makes my day. Keep the reviews coming, I love hearing what everyone thinks of my story!

On with the new chapter!

Chapter 15

It was the day of the battle with Forestclan. Almost every cat was nervous. Sagepaw padded out of the medicine den just as the sun was rising.

"Every cat old enough to catch their own prey gather beneath the tall rock for a clan meeting!" Wrenstar called. Sagepaw heard a grunt behind her and she turned around only to see Hawkwing.

"What is Wrenstar going to talk about now?" He asked to no one in particular, sounding grumpy. While Sagepaw looked at him, she realized that Hawkwing's muzzle was starting to speck with gray. "He can't be that old, right?" Sagepaw thought absentmindedly. She and Hawkwing walked over to the tall rock, where all the cats were starting to gather.

"I have decided who will be going on the patrol to fight against Forestclan!" Wrenstar declared. "The cats going will be: myself, Cloudheart, Tigerstripe, Browntail, Honeypelt, Clawslash, Dayfur, Runningwing, Flamepaw, Applepaw and Sagepaw, who will heal the cats that can be treated right away."

Sagepaw was shocked. "I'm going to the battle!?" Sagepaw's mind raced. She then looked to her left and saw Bouncefoot and Whitefur glaring at her, their eyes full of hatred that she got to go to the battle and they didn't. She sighed and then she looked at Hawkwing, who was sitting next to her.

"Hawkwing why am I going but you aren't?" Sagepaw asked.

"Because I haven't been feeling well since we got back from the trip to the moon rock. I have a bad feeling about this battle." He responded.

"We will leave now!" Wrenstar meowed.

Hawkwing looked at her. "Good luck Sagepaw. I know that you will do well."

Sagepaw dipped her head in return. "Thank you for teaching me to serve my clan in a better way than before."

"You're welcome. You better get going," Hawkwing added, pointing his tail to the camp entrance where the cats on the battle patrol were gathering.

Sagepaw nodded and headed to the camp entrance. Wrenstar turned to Sagepaw and quickly noticed something.

"Sagepaw, do you need any herbs?"

"Oh! I'm sorry Wrenstar! I'll be right back." "How could I forget?" Sagepaw thought, kicking herself over the fact that she had forgotten her main purpose of being on the patrol. She quickly gathered some cobwebs and marigold and sprinted back outside to the camp entrance.

"Ready everyone?" Wrenstar asked after she had noticed that Sagepaw had returned with her herbs. Cheers and yowls followed her question and the cats walked out of camp to the Forestclan border. It was a silent walk to the border except for when we got there.

"I'm so excited! How about you Flamepaw?" Applepaw asked her brother. Before Flamepaw could respond, Wrenstar jumped into the conversation.

"Shush! We're trying to ambush Forestclan and it won't work if you keep yapping!" Wrenstar growled. Suddenly, a yowl sounded across Forestclan territory, and tons of cats dropped from the thick trees. "Oh no! It's Forestclan!" Sagepaw murmured to herself.

"Attack!" Wrenstar exclaimed to her cats. So the rest of her clan charged Forestclan while Sagepaw stayed behind and started looking for a place to set her herbs. As she heard battle cries and yowls behind her, Sagepaw found a good place to set them; a large fern. Almost right away after she had set down her herbs, a cat came over to her.

"Please help me Sagepaw!" Runningwing meowed loudly.

"I will. Just lay down here under the bush." Sagepaw responded. Runningwing followed her command without protest and laid down. Sagepaw turned to her herbs and grabbed some marigold. She put the marigold on Runningwing and waited for it to do its work.

While Runningwing was resting, Browntail came over. "She doesn't seem to be injured so what's the problem?" Sagepaw thought.

"Sagepaw, Cloudheart has died." Browntail meowed.

"No! I didn't get a chance to save him." Sagepaw wailed.

"Well, he couldn't have even walked all the way over here if he tried!" Browntail growled.

"Stop trying to pick a fight with me when there's a battle going on out there!" Sagepaw gestured to the clearing where cats were fighting.

Browntail hissed at her and leaped out of the den and was heading back to the battle.

Sagepaw now realized that Forestclan had seemed to bring the entire clan to the battle, and with Cloudheart gone and Runningwing on the verge of death…

She watched as another Airclan cat hit the ground. Airclan was losing!

I hope that everyone enjoyed this chapter and The Battle Part 2 will be out next!

QOTD:Would you be interested in the story that I'm going to work on after this story is over (there is about 10 chapters left), about why I think that some of the minor characters went to the Dark Forest (For example: Icewing, Beetlewhisker, Furzepelt, Sunstrike, etc.)?
