Here we go again! The story continues. Since the wait was so long, we shall say the push is happening. Prepare for some fuckery.

Chapter 17: The Third Push

The Day of the Push:

Just about a moon had passed since the second push. Fireheart stretched felinely and felt his back pop. He took a whiff of the air and thought, 'Smells like rain. Fuck.' He purred quietly as he padded out of his den in Thunderclan. Reedwhisker, Onestar, and Bramblestar sitting in the middle of the clearing. Fireheart walked down to them. He was greeted warmly by them. Fireheart asked, "Are our forces ready?"

Reedwhisker answered first, "Riverclan is awaiting your command." Onestar answered next, "Windclan is at your disposal, Firestar." Bramblestar answered, "Thunderclan is yours to command, Firestar." Fireheart beamed and said, "Wonderful. Did you all give them the speech I asked you to give?" The three nodded and Onestar said, "Windclan was especially moved by the end." Fireheart said, "Ah! If you want peace, prepare for war. Very powerful and wise saying."

Bramblestar asked, "Where did you hear a saying that powerful, Firestar?" Fireheart replied, "Well. Let's just say I have my…. Shall we say sources?" Fireheart thought back to his twoleg life when he was studying powerful sayings. Fireheart had stumbled across it during some research, but it was in Latin, so he had to translate as best he could. Fireheart thought to himself, 'Thank Starclan for Google. It taught me as best as it could when I was a Twoleg. And I didn't want to give these three some Latin to say. That definitely would've raised some questions.' Fireheart shook his head and said, "Good. Now. To your positions. Remember the code word to send someone to recover. Leaf."

The three nodded their understanding and Fireheart said, "Now. I will go to Shadowclan and let them know it happens today. All of you. Get the attack groups into position and await the yowls of battle." Onestar and Reedwhisker took off to their separate clans. Fireheart looked into the sky, the sun still not rising. He sighed and said, "Here we go again." Bramblestar said, "No goodbye to the harem?" Fireheart replied, "I will tell them through the channel." Bramblestar nodded his understanding and asked, "Nervous Firestar?"

Fireheart replied, "Of course I am. Jayfeather had a vision about this fight. Someone gets hurt and hearing their cry of pain makes me snap, and not in a good way." Bramblestar thought for a moment, and said, "That's why none of the harem are in any of the assaulting forces. We also gotta give Seedpaw her Warrior Naming Ceremony." Fireheart nodded and said, "That we do. And of course none of them are in the assaulting forces. I don't want to snap. No one needs to see that… darker side of me."

Bramblestar nodded his understanding and said, "Well. I suppose I should let you go warn Shadowclan now." Fireheart watched Bramblestar walk away. Fireheart's legs bunched in anticipation. Fireheart chuckled and said, "It has been a minute since I went on a good run. Let's go." Fireheart shot forwards, dust flying upwards. As the dust began to fall back down, it began to rain

Fireheart muttered, "Fucking Greenleaf. Or as the Twolegs call it, Summer. Always hated the heat, I prefer the cold. Always have, always will, and the rain is just going to make it humid as hell." As Fireheart approached the Shadowclan border, he slowed himself to a walk.

Fireheart looked around, tasting the air. He got a slight hit on fox and he said, "Fuck me. I need to get there ASAP." Fireheart jogged towards the Shadowclan camp, getting a keen ear out for trouble. He shook his body, sending water everywhere as he walked into the Shadowclan camp. Fireheart was greeted warmly by a feminine voice, "There he is. I suppose you're here to warn us?" Fireheart." Fireheart replied, "Of course I am, Olivenose. How have you been?" Olivenose replied, "Been better, but I am pretty good now that you're here, Firestar."

Olivenose leaned closer to Fireheart, their faces mere inches apart. Fireheart breathed in her honey like scent. He felt his heart beat faster and he leaned closer when a yowl of battle interrupted the moment. He cursed quietly and yowled, "SHADOWCLAN! WE ARE UNDER ATTACK!" Fireheart roared a ferocious battle cry and he leapt into battle.

Fireheart attacked a fox first. It evaded his strike swiftly. Fireheart ignited his pelt with white flames. The fox was attacked from behind by Blackstar. Both toms shared a nod and Blackstar continued his assault on the fox. Fireheart looked around and saw Shadowclan cats defending their camp. The assault forces from Windclan, Riverclan, and Thunderclan booked it into the Shadowclan Camp. Fireheart looked for his next target and leapt at a dog. The two rolled on the ground. Fireheart ended up on top, but the dog kicked him off. Fireheart flipped in the air and landed gracefully.

He darted forwards fast as a snake strikes and cleanly slit the dogs throat. It gurgled on blood and fell to the ground. Lionblaze and Crowfeather walked over to him. Fireheart smiled and said, "Nice timing." Lionblaze and Crowfeather nodded their agreement. Olivenose walked over to the Toms and said to Fireheart, "Let's send these bastards back to the Place of No Stars!" Fireheart chuckled and said, "I couldn't have said it better myself." Fireheart looked around and felt claws rake his pelt.

Fireheart turned around and saw a fox. Fireheart retaliated. Olivenose and him began to attack the fox as a team. The fox fled and Lionblaze said to Fireheart, "Keep your wits about you Fireheart. Foxes are cowards, but clever, always looking for an opportune time to strike." Fireheart nodded in understanding. His wounds from the fox healed in a flash of fire and he leapt into a nearby group.

Fireheart landed among the Assault force from Windclan. It consisted of Breezepelt, Nightcloud, Harespring, Whitetail, Onestar, Boulderpaw, and Sunstrike. Fireheart looked at the group and said, "On me Lionclan! Let's send our foes back to the Place of No Stars with their tails between their legs!" Nightcloud spat, "I am only here because I was forced to. You are not my leader Fireheart. I hope karma finds its way back to you." Fireheart shook his head in disbelief. He was tackled out of the way of a dog. Fireheart rolled to his feet and saw Breezepelt and the dog rolling. Fireheart bolted forwards and attacked the dog with Breezepelt. The dog yipped in fear and Fireheart shoved Breezepelt out of the way of the dog's open maw.

The dog tried to latch its jaw around Fireheart, but he managed to catch the dog's jaw. The two opposite forces kept fighting for ground. The dog managed to push Fireheart back a bit and he hissed. Fireheart growled, "Memento Mori!" Fireheart moved his paws opposites ways swiftly as he ripped the dog's jaw off. Blood covered Fireheart as he threw the dog's jaw to the side and leapt backwards as the dog fell forwards, dead. Breezepelt looked at Fireheart in shock and asked, "How strong are you? And the fuck did you say?" Fireheart chuckled and replied, "Truth be told, I have no idea how strong I actually am. And what I said means, Remember. You must die."

Fireheart leapt into another group. He landed in the Riverclan Assault force that consisted of: Reedwhisker, Mintfur, Gorsepaw, Minnowtail, Mossypaw, Owlwhisker, and Robinwing. Fireheart looked at Gorsepaw and said, "Nice to meet you face to face Gorsepaw. Sorry for the first time you saw me, didn't mean to scare you." Gorsepaw replied, voice full of confidence, "No worries. You have my full respect, Fireheart. You defended Riverclan on your own, and nearly died in the process." Fireheart smiled but noticed something. He shoved Gorsepaw out of the way as a black and brown tortoiseshell tom leapt at Gorsepaw. Fireheart and the tom collided. They both rolled and Fireheart wound up on bottom. The tom tried to gut Fireheart. The moment the tom's claw pierced Fireheart's stomach, Fireheart kicked the tom off of him and kipped to his paws.

Fireheart spat, "Pathetic. You can't win your battles honorably? You aren't worth the dirt you make. Let me show you something not many have seen." Fireheart stood up on his hind legs. He stuck a paw out and motioned with it as if to say, Try me. The tom cackled and said, its voice like nails on a chalkboard, "This will be easier than I expected. Keeping your underbelly exposed, you truly are a dumbass. Once I bring your head to Tigerstar, I am bound to be promoted." Fireheart replied, "Try me."

The tom leapt at Fireheart, but Fireheart caught the tom and threw it against a pine tree. Owlwhisker leapt over to Fireheart and landed next to him. Fireheart looked at Owlwhisker and gasped in disbelief. He said, "Holy shit. It's you bro! How did I not recognize you?" Owlwhisker laughed and said, "We have not really seen each other since the journey to the Sun-drown place. Sorry about lying to you about my identity when I told you my name was Oakpaw." Fireheart chuckled and said, "I understand. No worries. Let's send these bastards back to Tigerstar with some scars. Back to back!" Owlwhisker obeyed without hesitation as he said, "I'll do my best, but I refuse to stand on my hind legs. Looks awkward." Fireheart laughed and replied, "It is awkward."

Fireheart and Owlwhisker fought off the dogs and foxes that attacked them. The area around them was covered in blood. Fireheart looked at Owlwhisker and noticed his injuries. Fireheart said, "Leaf, Owlwhisker." Owlwhisker nodded his understanding and retreated. Fireheart got back on all fours and immediately jumped over a dog that leapt at him. Fireheart shot forwards and struck the dog with a closed paw as hard as he could. The dog was sent flying through a tree. Fireheart looked up and saw the tree falling towards the Nursery. Fireheart said, "Shit."

Fireheart felt time slow for him and he bolted up a nearby tree and launched himself towards the falling tree. Fireheart struck the tree with his shoulder and changed the direction it was falling. Fireheart landed harshly and watched the tree fall onto the dog he sent through it. Fireheart knew his shoulder was practically shattered. He hissed in pain.

Fireheart looked for his next target when a feminine yowl of pain pierced his ears. He immediately recognized it was Olivenose's voice. He thought to himself, 'N…No. I-It can't be!' His inner demons immediately took advantage of the situation. Fireheart immediately felt something inside him snap and he automatically entered the Heavenly Drive without saying the chant, everything about it was the same, but his aura was red. Everything stopped as everyone looked at him.

Fireheart shot towards the yowl of pain and saw a she-cat standing over Olivenose, its teeth, dripping with blood and Olivenose was not moving. Fireheart leapt at the she-cat and tackled it off of Olivenose. He attacked the she-cat viciously and mercilessly. Fireheart felt several of the she-cat's attacks find their mark on him, but he kept attacking without a care for his well being.

Once Fireheart disposed of the she-cat, he padded over to Olivenose. She looked at him and his injuries, blood pooling below him. She gulped quietly and said, "Fireheart. I know you're in there. Leaf." Fireheart ignored her and attacked the next target nearby, swiftly ending their life. Olivenose said, "Fireheart snap out of it! Come back to me!" The ground shook with every step Fireheart took. Olivenose struggled to her paws and she walked in front of Fireheart. He looked at her and she pleaded, "Come back to us damn it! Snap out of it!" Fireheart didn't respond and Olivenose said with tears in her eyes, "Have you no concern for your wellbeing?!"

Fireheart replied, "I died moons ago." His smile was mirthless and cold as he continued, "No one noticed because the blood wasn't mine." Fireheart mercilessly slaughtered a dog that thought approaching the two was smart, blood flying every which way. Olivenose yelled, voice full of authority and worry, "Protect Fireheart and I! I need to get through to him!" Blackstar yowled, "Listen to her! Can you get him closer to the Elder's den and Nursery so we can protect them?" Olivenose opened her mouth to reply, when Fireheart shot directly between the two dens and dismembered a group of Tigerstar's cats, limbs flying every which way. The thick coat of blood on Fireheart dripped to the ground.

Olivenose bolted over with him and tackled Fireheart to the ground. Fireheart gently pushed her off of him and got to his paws. Olivenose pleaded, "Snap out of it! Come back to us Fireheart! STARCLAN DAMN IT PLEASE! I LOVE YOU!"

In Fireheart's Mind:

Fireheart was helpless as his inner demons took full control of his movements. Fireheart stuttered in defeat, "I… I let Olivenose die. I… I deserve this. Do it. Take full control. Slaughter my enemies, but don't let my body heal. If they kill me, so be it." He choked on tears when he heard a voice faintly. Fireheart looked around looking for the source of the voice. He saw nothing and sat down in defeat, watching through his eyes, but not behind the wheel, as his body slaughtered and killed many of his foes. His demons, hiding the fact that Olivenose was okay.

With Olivenose:

Olivenose kept pleading with Fireheart, "DAMN IT FIREHEART! I KNOW YOU'RE IN THERE SOMEWHERE! COME BACK TO ME DAMN IT!" Olivenose shook her head to clear it and said to Fireheart, "Fireheart. I know you're in there somewhere, come here. Talk to me. Let me know you're still in there!" Fireheart replied, his voice almost sinister, "Fireheart isn't here right now! He currently thinks you have died. This is his…. Shall we say darker side talking currently. He let us take full control because he thinks he let you die. Good luck getting through to him, Olivenose. We have been waiting for this man to break so we could have some fun!"

Olivenose hissed, "How dare you make him think I died?! Why?! AND WHY DID IT WORK?!" Fireheart chuckled and answered, "Because the feeling's mutual Olivenose. Why do you think the mere thought of your death forced him into this state? He didn't know he loved you until you got injured." Olivenose blushed and examined Fireheart and realized none of the wounds had healed. She asked swiftly, "Why aren't you healing his injuries?!" Fireheart chuckled again and said, "His orders. He said he deserves this as he does think that he let you die."

Olivenose spat in disgust, "You disgust me! You realize if he dies, you won't ever be able to have fun again!" Fireheart chuckled and said, "That's fine with us. He's still got more than enough life left for us to slaughter this entire army. He might make it." Olivenose growled in anger.

Blackstar asked, "How much longer is this gonna take Olivenose? We are getting our asses beat! There's too many of them!" Olivenose replied angrily, "I am working on it! Get Lionblaze over here! He can help until I get through to Fireheart!" Blackstar was taken aback by Olivenose's anger, but he yowled, "LIONBLAZE WE NEED ASSISTANCE OVER HERE BY THE NURSERY AND ELDER'S DEN!"

Olivenose watched Lionblaze leap into the fray and she turned back to Fireheart. Fireheart leapt into combat. Fireheart was about to kill a fox, when Olivenose leapt in between the two. She braced herself to feel her throat get slit and feel her life slip to Starclan, but the feeling never came. Olivenose looked up and saw that Fireheart's claws stopped millimeters from her neck.

In Fireheart's Mind:

Fireheart was looking through his eyes and noticed that his claws had stopped. Nothing was there. He asked, "W-What happened?" His Demons responded, 'Nothing to worry yourself about. The fox died from fear.' Fireheart was about to say his understanding when he noticed a glimmer through his eyes. He heard very faintly, "So. You do care about my wellbeing. Good to know."

Back With Olivenose:

Olivenose said, "So. You do care about my wellbeing. Good to know." Fireheart spat, "Of course we do! He loves you so we love you! Stay the fuck out of our way!" Olivenose retorted confidently, "I will not until I get through to him!" Fireheart growled and spat, "Gods you're stupid! Fireheart is gone! You can't get through to him!" Olivenose let the insult slide over her and she retorted, "I can and will get through to him! It's only a matter of time before your control over him fades!"

Fireheart growled in annoyance and hissed, "God damn it! You're a persistent bitch! Just let us slaughter these bastards and we will go away!" Olivenose snapped, "I refuse! You are going to get him killed!" Fireheart paced around and roared in anger, his roar shaking the forest. Olivenose said calmly and sweetly, "Fire, Love, Sweetie, Dear. I know you can hear me. I am okay. Come back to me my love. You don't deserve to die."

In Fireheart's Mind:

Fireheart noticed that his body had stopped fighting and was pacing around. He seemed to be arguing with someone. He noticed another glimmer and saw a blob in the shape of a cat in front of him. Fireheart heard the cat's voice faintly as it said, "I know you can hear me. You don't deserve to die." Fireheart asked, "Why can't I recognize the voice?! Damn it all to Starclan!" Fireheart paced around in his mind and thought about who the cat speaking to him could be. Suddenly he got a thought. He muttered, "C-Could Olivenose still be alive?" Fireheart forced himself to focus so he could figure it out.

Back with Olivenose:

Olivenose sat down and mewed calmly, "Come on Love. I know you're in there. Come back to the forest. Come back to us!" Fireheart hissed and said, "God damn it stop Olivenose!" Olivenose replied, "I'll stop." Fireheart beamed and Olivenose continued, "When Fireheart is here." Fireheart grumbled angrily and hissed, "For fucks sake! Knock it off!" Lionblaze growled in pain and defeated the foe facing him. Blackstar leapt to his side and the two fought off a dog. Lionblaze yelled, "How much longer Olivenose?! We're getting torched out here!"

Olivenose replied, "I'm making progress! I can tell! Hopefully soon!" Fireheart stumbled and said, "Fuck! Knock it off!" Olivenose smirked and said, "Never."

In Fireheart's Mind:

Fireheart fought back against his demons, fighting for control. He managed to take control for a split second. Fireheart gasped quietly as he saw a cat he recognized immediately. Fireheart was back in his mind. He growled in anger and hissed, "How dare you refuse to tell me Olivenose was okay?! The fuck is wrong with you!" His demons replied, 'Because fuck you! That's why! We have been waiting damn near since your birth to have some fun! You lost this battle the moment you gave us control! GOOD LUCK!' Fireheart's struggles continued as he wrestled for control, but his demons' claws were latched on tightly. Anytime Olivenose spoke, Fireheart doubled his efforts to wrest control back.

Back with Olivenose:

Olivenose evaded a strike from a nearby dappled she-cat. Olivenose defended herself and kicked the she-cat back into the fray. Smokefoot immediately jumped onto the she-cat and sunk his teeth in her scruff and threw her a foot further from Olivenose. He hissed, "Your fight is with me. Not her." Olivenose mewed her thanks and turned her attention back to Fireheart.

Olivenose leapt at Fireheart once more while he was distracted. She pinned Fireheart immediately. Fireheart tried to struggle against Olivenose, but found he couldn't move. Fireheart growled, "The fuck is happening?!" Olivenose purred lightly and said, "Seems like he's winning. Come back to me, my love. Come back to us!" Olivenose yelled to the cats defending her, "Just a little longer!" Crowfeather yelled, "You heard her! Just a little longer until we get Fireheart back!" Blackstar yowled, "WE CAN DO THIS! FOR THE TIME BEING SINCE FIREHEART IS OUT OF THE FIGHT CURRENTLY; I WILL TAKE CONTROL UNTIL HE COMES BACK, ON ME LIONCLAN!"

In Fireheart's Mind:

Fireheart heard Olivenose say, "Seems like he's winning. Come back to me, my love. Come back to us!" Fireheart had finally made ground in wresting control back. He had managed to force his body to not fight against Olivenose pinning him. Fireheart growled in annoyance and hissed, "Give me back my body you bastards!" His demons replied, 'Never! You will heed and obey our commands!' Fireheart hissed and said, "Fuck you! To hell with your commands! You are not the one in charge! At least not completely anymore! I! WILL! BREAK! FREE!" With each word, Fireheart struggled against the constraints of his mind. After one last push, Fireheart was in full control again.

In the Outside World:

Fireheart swiftly locked his demons back in their cage and looked around, his eyes adjusting to the sunlight. He saw beautiful blue eyes full of concern for his wellbeing looking at him. Fireheart said weakly, "Hey you. It's me." Olivenose's eyes watered and Fireheart felt her tears drench his blood covered face. Fireheart deactivated the Heavenly Drive. He turned his head and coughed up a mouthful of blood to the left side of him. Fireheart used a paw and gently wiped the tears off of Olivenose's cheek.

Olivenose opened her mouth to say something, but Fireheart interrupted her, "I know. I know Olivenose. I know. But. I now know something now. I do in fact love you, Olivenose." He kissed her gently, taking Olivenose by surprise, but she purred quietly. Fireheart felt Olivenose's mind connect to the channel he had with his harem. Fireheart purred and said, "Welcome to the harem Love. It is about time you were here with us." Olivenose blushed lighty and said, "I never thought you'd love me, truth be told." Fireheart asked, "Why?"

Olivenose replied, "Because of what Blackstar said to you." Fireheart chuckled and said, "Just because your leader said something to me that is unforgivable, does not mean that you are the same. And that doesn't matter anyway, for I have forgiven him. Ask him." Olivenose beamed and said, "Alright Fireheart. You gonna heal yourself or you just gonna be a bloody mess, albeit a sexy bloody mess?"

Fireheart chuckled and forced his body to heal in a flash of fire. He sighed in relief and yelled, "I HAVE RETURNED LIONCLAN! LET'S SEND THESE BASTARDS BACK TO TIGERSTAR!" Olivenose unpinned Fireheart and he kipped to his paws. Fireheart asked, "How bloody am I?" Olivenose replied honestly, "Your fur is damn near blood red. You look like you bathed in the blood of your enemies." Fireheart laughed and said, "I basically did. Now. Let's send them back!"

Fireheart leapt into the fray next to Lionblaze. Lionblaze looked at his son and he asked, "Is this actually you?" Fireheart replied, "Yeah. I've returned." Lionblaze sighed in relief, smiled and said, "Just like old times, eh Firestar?" Fireheart nodded and the two fought back to back pushing back Tigerstar's forces bit by bit. Fireheart leapt towards a large fox and tackled it. The two rolled on the ground, trading blows. Fireheart heard something leap at him from behind and he leapt off of the fox. Fireheart felt claws scrape his pelt and he growled in annoyance as he landed. Fireheart turned around and barely reacted in time to block the dog's claws. Blood trickled down Fireheart's front legs.

Fireheart leapt back and shot forwards almost immediately. He hit the dog with a superman punch and sent it flying into a boulder. The boulder cracked and the dog fell down dead, Fireheart's punch having snapped its neck. Fireheart turned his attention back to the fox he was fighting, but couldn't find it. He muttered, "Stripestar. Heed my call." Stripestar appeared next to Fireheart and asked, "What can I do for you?" Fireheart replied, "Protect the Elder's Den and the Nursery. We can't have warriors stationed there constantly. Cats will have to leave to be treated eventually. If you are about to be overrun or killed, yell my name and return to Starclan." Stripestar nodded his understanding and took a solid form as he roared.

Fireheart looked around and was surrounded by a group of cats, dogs, and foxes. Fireheart chuckled and said, "So. This is your plan. Surround me. Hate to be a party pooper, but this will not end like you think it will." Fireheart looked at his paws and flexed them, his blood stained claws popping out of their protective pads. He looked back up at the group surrounding him and asked, "So. How are we going to do this?"

No one answered. A cat walked out that Fireheart recognized immediately. Fireheart hissed and spat, "Sol. Makes sense you'd lead these failures." Sol cackled and said, "So. You are still alive. Good to know. Can't wait to kill you." Fireheart laughed and said, "You already know how this ends. With all of you returning to the Place of No Stars battered, bloody, and beaten." Sol yowled in a foreign tongue and the group leapt towards Fireheart.

Fireheart felt time slow for him and he thought of a plan immediately. Fireheart ignited his pelt with white flames and let the group land on him. Fireheart was knocked to his stomach, feeling the weight on top of him. Fireheart struggled to his paws. Once he got to his paws, he planted his feet, the ground beneath him cracking. Fireheart took a deep breath and launched upwards.

Fireheart leapt from foe to foe and dispatched of them swiftly. Once he got to the peak, his eyes hunted for Sol. Fireheart smirked once he spotted Sol. Fireheart whispered, "Target acquired." Fireheart saw a cat in the air with him. Fireheart looked down and gauged the distance and said, "Hope you're prepared for a eighty foot fall." The cat looked at Fireheart, eyes full of fear and Fireheart yelled, "LET'S PLAY A GAME SOL! A GAME YOUR FATHER SHOULD'VE PLAYED WITH YOU! IT'S CALLED CATCH!" Fireheart sunk his teeth into the scruff of the cat up there with him, swung his head, and threw the cat towards Sol. The cat that Fireheart had thrown yelled, "OH SHIT!" the entire way down. Fireheart spread his legs out to slow his descent. He watched Sol barely avoid the cat that Fireheart had thrown at him.

Fireheart saw a pine tree fast approaching. He muttered, "This is gonna fucking hurt." Fireheart dug his claws into the pine tree and slid down the tree, large scratch marks being formed as he slid down. Fireheart leapt off the tree from half way up and landed harshly. He grunted in pain and muttered, "Fuck me! That hurt! That will take a while to heal itself. My fucking claws were practically ripped out. Until my powers kick in and regrow my claws, I'm stuck with my teeth and paw-to-paw combat. Fuck!"

Fireheart padded over to where Sol was. Sol looked at Fireheart and growled, "You fucking threw one of my cats at me! Are you out of your fucking mind?!" Fireheart laughed and said, "You were supposed to catch her. By Starclan you suck at the game of Catch. Don't be afraid of the ball dumbass!" Sol hissed, "The fucking ball?! You threw another cat at me! Have you been dipping into Thunderclan's supply of Catmint?! You fucking killed her and all my cats! What about Code fourteen?!" Fireheart growled, "Oh no you fucking didn't! OH HELL NO! I know you did not just say that! Don't you DARE preach the Warrior Code to me when you don't even obey the damn thing! Your entire posse is outside of the Warrior Code and killing y'all is necessary for self-defense! Cause you are all going for the kill! Now! I am going to tell you how this is going to go!"

Fireheart took a breath and said, "Now! Since you decided to even speak of the Warrior Code to me, I am going to send you back to Tigerstar, with your skull exploding underneath my paw as your blood coats my face and chest.. It's about time someone shut you up for good. NOW! I'm assuming that I'm understood! So try me bitch." Sol growled in annoyance and hissed, "Quite the cocky, arrogant bastard aren't you?" Fireheart laughed and said, "If you had been through even an eighth of the shit I've been through, you'd understand."

Sol leapt at Fireheart and Fireheart avoided the strike as he said, "I am impressed. Normally you make others do your dirty work." Sol hissed, "How would you know?!" Fireheart laughed and replied, "Believe me. I know." Fireheart stood up on his hind legs. Sol looked at him and said, "So. The rumors are true." Fireheart said, "I have no idea what you're on about." Sol said, "The rumors that you used to be a twoleg." Fireheart laughed and said, "I have no idea who told you that, but they're lying to you. I just got used to fighting like this in case I needed an advantage, and now is one of those times."

Sol shook his head and hissed, "I know Tigerstar wouldn't lie to me!" Fireheart retorted matter-of-factly, "Have you not noticed that lying is kind of Tigerstar's whole shtick?" Sol growled, "ENOUGH OF YOUR HERESY!" Sol leapt at Fireheart. Fireheart evaded the strike at the last second and retaliated by kicking Sol towards a tree. Fireheart took a quick breath as his kick landed. Sol's back hit the tree and he grunted in pain. Sol cursed in a foreign tongue. Sol got to his paws quickly and leapt at Fireheart again. Fireheart evaded the strike and threw Sol behind him. Sol growled in annoyance and said, "Just fucking die Fireheart!"

Sol attacked Fireheart viciously, doubling his efforts to land a strike. Fireheart evaded a few, but many found their mark on his body. Fireheart whistled and said, "There you go! Now you're learning!" Fireheart leapt at Sol and the two tumbled on the ground. Fireheart wound up on top and began wailing on Sol's face with closed paws, each punch causing blood to fly in every which direction. Fireheart grunted with each strike, Sol's yowls of pain not being heard by Fireheart because of his bloodlust.

Fireheart's strikes became more powerful with each swing, and he kept wailing on Sol's face. Sol pleaded for his life, but Fireheart didn't listen as he roared with all his might, the ground shaking from his roar, and swung with all his strength, letting out all of the bad emotions that had built inside him in one fell swoop. As Fireheart's paw made contact with Sol's face, Fireheart felt Sol's skull cave underneath. Fireheart's paw went through Sol's skull as Sol's head exploded, sending brain matter, skull, and blood everywhere. Fireheart got off of Sol, his face coated with blood.

Fireheart turned around and saw Olivenose looking at him, a look of fear in her eyes. He began to begin defending himself with words, but Olivenose looked into Fireheart's eyes, a look of love and warmth in her eyes and she said, "I never expected you to let out all of your rage at once. I also did not know how strong you actually are. Do not get me wrong, it was terrifying, but sometimes, one needs to exert such anger and emotion to get their point across." Fireheart opened his mouth to argue, but Olivenose interrupted him and said, "It's okay Firestar. I promise. I saw what you did, but I am not scared of you. You aren't a monster! I promise." Olivenose further proved her point by running over to Fireheart. Fireheart looked away, his orange face completely covered in blood, but Olivenose made him gently look at her. She wiped the blood off his face gently and kissed him lightly. Fireheart blushed lightly and purred quietly. Olivenose continued, "Now. Let's finish these fuckers off." Fireheart nodded his understanding, his heart warmed from her words as he followed her lead.

Shortly after, a yowl of retreat was heard. Fireheart watched the assaulting force retreat. Fireheart ran over to Highrock and yowled, "WE HAVE DEFENDED OURSELF SHADOWCLAN! NOW I ASK YOUR LEADER IF…." Blackstar said, "Let me stop you right there. The answer is yes. We will join Lionclan." Fireheart looked at Blackstar and asked, "Does your clan fully remember who I am, Blackstar?" Blackstar replied, "Truthfully, I don't give a fuck if they do or not. Because I remember who you are, Firestar!" Most of Shadowclan gasped in disbelief. Fireheart chuckled and said, "He isn't wrong." Fireheart made his leader star appear on his head. Fireheart said, "From this point on, since I have reunited my clan, everyone, call me Firestar, and I am the fire that will save the clans!"

I know. It's a shorter fight chapter. But I had to get back in the saddle as they say. Updates will happen more frequently again. I promise. Until next time, May Starclan watch over you all! HappytheExceed16, logging out.
