Chapter 4-Nightstalk & Attack

Nightstalk padded through the forest, Grayflame next to her. Blackdream had asked her to keep an eye on Nightstalk. 

As the clan sat down, Nightstalk did so, beside Grayflame. They were the second clan to arrive. 

"Where is RainClan?" Sandystar asked impatiently. 

"I don't know. Let's start. We can't wait forever." Marigoldstar shrugged, stepping forward. But as she opened her mouth to speak, Cherryfur rushed in. 

"Help! Help! Rogues are attacking our camp! There are so many of them! Help please!" Cherryfur's words all came out in between panting breaths. 

"BranchClan, let's go!" Marigoldstar led the way, HollowClan at their heels. Nightstalk's muscular legs pushed herself forward as she focused on running to RainClan's camp. As they entered the camp, what met their eyes was a horrible sight. 


Blood was splattered everywhere and Nightstalk spotted Leafstar lying in a pool of her own blood. There were rogues everywhere and they were attacking every cat they could get their paws on. 

"This is worse than I thought! Quickly! We need to help." Sandystar jumped into the mass of fighting cat, Marigoldstar and other cats running after him. Nightstalk slashed her claws at a cat attacking a blue-gray she-cat. 

"Bluedawn! Get into the nursery! I'll help this cat!" a light brown tom, who Nightstalk recognised as Adderdawn, yelled, attacking the rogue. Nightstalk and him took turns taunting him, clawing at his muzzle and slashing at his belly. Adderdawn was an amazing fighter, too it seemed. 

"Do think you can handle this rogue alone? I see a cat over there that's struggling." Nightstalk asked Adderdawn, who nodded, easily dodging the rogue's blows, instead landing his own. Nightstalk sped away, to a white and black tom. 

"Swiftwing!" He spun around, shocked to see Nightstalk. 

"You're Cedarflower's sister aren't you? How's the kit?" he asked, while a rogue landed a hard blow to his head. Nightstalk quickly slashed at the rogue's eyes, causing him to flee into the forest. 

"He's Redwing now. He knows nothing about you and never will. Cedarflower wants to forget about you." For a second, Nightstalk felt a pang of pity for the tom as his face dropped. But then another rogue attacked, pouncing onto her. This time they were matching for weight. The large black tom was muscular and strong, just like her. But she pushed him, down clamping her claws around his throat. 

"Get off him!" A voice screeched, landing on Nightstalk, pulling her away. 

"Featherheart ! What are you doing?" Skybrook appeared, dragging the young warrior away. 

"Get off me! You pathetic weakling! I'm so ashamed your my mother!" Featherheart screamed, struggling to get away from Skybrook's grasp. She was so shocked, she let go automatically. Featherheart spun around a slashed at Skybrook's eyes. 

"Feather! You're pregnant! You can't fight!" the large black tom charged at Featherheart, forcing her to step away. 

"Titan! She's my mother! I want to finish her off!" Featherheart yelled, slashing at Skybrook's muzzle again. 

"Featherheart! You traitor! How could you? You will pay for this!" Nightstalk screeched, stepping forward, giving blow after blow at the traitorous she-cat. 

"How dare you attack my mate?!" Titan launched himself at her, his weight crushing her. As she felt herself start to suffocate, her face turned purple and Titan smirked in victory. 

"Nightstalk!" Skybrook screeched pouncing on Titan, but only ended up being dragged away by Featherheart. Nighstalk's heartbeat stopped and her shallow breaths died down. It was too late.
