Nightstar stared down at her Clan. "Alright! We know Shadowstar and his warriors will attack the forest sooner or later, so we must prepare for the attack! Each cat will have to train, excluding kits. We'll be training until that fool attacks, and when he does, we'll have to have an alliance between us and the other 3 Clans. We'll fight for our forest and destroy the Tribe of Falling Night!" Nightstar yowled. Her voice rang throughout the clearing. "Training starts now!" Nightstar ordered, and the warriors instantly began training the apprentices, queens, and even the elders. Nightstar rushed down to the clearing, her bright blue eyes scanning the camp.
--- In RiverClan with Silverstar ---
Silverstar had ordered the Clan cats to train. The silver tom knew he had to be allies with the other Clans in the battle. He looked around the clearing and soon rushed off to hunt. He passed a few warriors along the way to the river. He knew he had to fight for his Clan...for the forest.
--- In WindClan with Froststar ---
Froststar was training queens and elders to fight in the battle for the forest. Each cat in the Clan had to fight, except for the kits. Froststar knew very well that this battle will spill blood throughout the forest, but for a good cause. If her warriors had to die, then so be it; it'd be for the forest. She had made a truce wuth the other Clans for the battle and for a few days after to recover.
--- In ThunderClan with Stonestar ---
The old gray tom knew he had to train each and ever cat in his Clan to fight. He knew many would die from each Clan...but it was either that...or giving up the forest. He had 4 lives left and he would sacrifice each life to save his Clan...to save the forest itself. He was training a queen, Pinestrike, to fight. She seemed to be learning quickly as did the other cats that were being trained.
--- In The Tribe of Falling Night with Shadowstar ---
Shadowstar stared down at each of his warriors, eyes narrowed. "The forest will be mine..." He hissed to himself. He had a plan; a plan to take the forest for his own and drive the others out. This was the very day he had been training in the Dark Forest for. He dug his claws into the ground as the battle drew near.
--- Back in ShadowClan with Nightstar ---
Nightstar volunteered to train the elders and so she did. She was training Brokentail, who was doing surprisingly well. "Alright, now practice the moves you've learned. Pretend I'm one of Shadowstar's warriors." Nightstar purred. "But, I don't want to hurt you; you're the leader for StarClan's sake!" Brokentail murmured. "Don't worry; I can take it. I have nine lives, don't I? So of course I can take it!" Nightstar responded gently.
Brokentail nodded and unsheathed his claws. Nightstar charged at Brokentail, snarling and Brokentail slid under her. He sent her in the other direction with a powerful kick. Nightstar did a small backflip in mid-air, landing on her paws and lunging at Brokentail. Brokentail lunged at Nightstar as well and the two cats collided into a ball of slashing claws and hisses.
Nightstar pressed her back legs onto Brokentail's belly and jumped away before the old tom could harm her. She landed on her paws, whipped around, and charged at Brokentail. Brokentail got up and knew he couldn't avoid Nightstar, so he charged at her as well; he headbutted her chest, causing her to go flying backwards. While she was stunned, the old tom charged at her and slashed at her. She smiled and nodded.
She leapt at him and Brokentail slid under her, raising a paw with unsheathed claws and it barely scraped her fur as he knew it was a killing move that could possibly take down a leader instantly. She pretended to have been hit and she weakly fell to the ground. She jumped up, smiling. "That was amazing!" She complimented. "Well, you taught me the battle moves. I only learned from them." Brokentail responded with a purr.
"Who knew a cat could learn so much different from the Clan cats and have better battle moves when they lived outside of the Clans." Brokentail meowed. Nightstar rolled her eyes playfully. "You'll do very well in the battle, Brokentail...I know you will." Nightstar meowed, her bright blue eyes seeming to glow. Brokentail nodded and padded back to the elders den. She then began to train a queen, Pinefur.
A few weeks later, it seems each cat has trained well for the battle. Shadowstar still hasn't attacked, but the Clans are expecting it to be soon. At the moment, the cats of other Clans could pass on others territory. Suddenly, Cloudrunner was on ShadowClan territory...and he was rushing to their camp. "Nightstar! Nightstar I have to warn you about something!" Cloudrunner yowled and Nightstar rushed over.
"What is it?" She asked. "Shadowstar! T-they're attacking in the next-" He was cut off as he fell over. He had lost quite a bit of blood from a shoulder wound that he had recieved a moment ago and so it had, somehow, knocked him out. "Pineleaf! Tend to his wounds!" Nightstar ordered when she dragged his body gently into the Medicine den. He would attack when..?
After quite a bit of time, Cloudrunner woke up. "W-where am I? Is Shadowstar here yet?" He asked frantically. "Calm down, You're in ShadowClan right now. So, when is Shadowstar going to attack?" Pineleaf asked. "O-oh yeah! He said he'd attack in the next moon!" Cloudrunner yowled. "We'd better be prepared then..." Pineleaf meowed distantly.
--- Half a moon later ---
Half a moon had passed and the Clans were preparing themselves. They knew of the massive battle that was coming. Shadowstar was gaining followers by the minute while the Clans could only wait and suffer the fear. They knew many would be lost to the battle, but they also knew it was for their own good. Nightstar and the other leaders and their Clans held a truce with eachother like the Gathering.
Suddenly, as the leaders were having a 'Gathering' at Fourtrees, Shadowstar burst in. "I've made my descision where the battle will be. It will be here." He hissed, before backing away into the shadows. "Alright, we've got to prepare for the attack." Nightstar warned the other leaders while shooting nervous glances at where Shadowstar was. Soon, they left to their territories. "Alright! I need two hunting patrols out right now! Dawnfall, order the hunting patrols as well as the border patrols! We also need all of us to train more before the battle! Remember, half a moon, everybody! Half a moon!" Nightstar yowled.
The cats of each Clan were hunting quite a bit; much more than usual. They were training quite a bit, going over new and old battle moves. Medicine cats were gathering countless herbs; apprentices were training constantly as were other cats; patrols were bringing back quite a bit of prey...all for a battle that may destroy them. They were preparing for the battle for the forest between the four Clans and The Tribe of Falling Night. They hadn't a clue who would win, but, what they did know was that the warriors would have to fight as long as possible and some would die for good reason...
--- A half-moon later; almost at the time of the battle ---
Nightstar and the other leaders as well as their Clans were in one large group, heading to Fourtrees. Night had fallen by the time they got there. They began to unsheathe their claws and ready themselves for the battle that would begin soon. They knew very well that countless warriors would be killed, but for a good cause. They saw, on a hill, countless pairs of glowing eyes staring down at them and a massive group of cats.
The group marched down the hill and towards the Clans. A familiar black cat with green eyes and white paws stepped into the moonlit clearing—Shadowstar, leader of the Tribe of Falling Night. "Well, if it isn't the forest Clans. The forest will be mine and you'll have no choice but to hand it over the easy way...or, with the death of countless warriors, you could do this the hard way. It's your choice, you forest fools!" Shadowstar snarled. "We won't be giving you the forest! All of us have been living here for countless moons! Why would we ever give up the forest we've always lived in? We've lived here and we always will! Even if some of us die, itmll be for a good cause; to save the forest from being taken into your bloody paws and down your dark path!" Nightstar snarled and the oother leaders growled in agreement. "Fine then. Have it your way. Your loss, our gain!" Shadowstar snarled.
"Attack!" Shadowstar ordered his warriors. Nightstar and the other leaders did the same. Warriors were slashing at eachother, spitting insults and ripping clumps of fur out. Nightstar searched for Shadowstar, but she couldn't find the leader anywhere. As she was searching, she felt claws rake her side.
She whipped around to see a massive brown tabby—Deadfoot. She slashed at his chest, but he pinned her to the ground, over-powering her. He bit her ear, but she slashed at him constantly. She was about to try to throw him off, and she managed to. The massive tabby fell backwards and got up.
Nightstar left a long scar from his shoulder and down his side. The massive warrior sent a paw towards her, but missed. Nightstar took advantage of this and slashed at his throat. He yowled in pain and backed away, growling. Nightstar threatened to attack again and the tabby turned tail and fled.
She pushed through the sea of cats, earning scratches on her way. Something but her and she attacked, seeing it was Goosefeather. The old grey tom avoided her attacks and soon bit harshly onto her neck. Nightstar threw him off and, while the old tom was stunned, she leapt high into the air and sunk her claws deep into his side, causing him to let out a yowl. He tried to throw her off, but she clung on, digging her claws into his shoulders.
Soon, he fell backwards on purpose and crushed Nightstar. She hissed and threw him off, lunging at him and biting his throat. He growled and tried to throw her off and soon, he did. She slashed at him until Goosefeather left. He ran off, bleeding.
Soon, a familiar cat flashed past her—Shadowstar. She chased after the swift leader, snarling as he was going to attack Dawnfall, her sister and deputy. She leapt onto Shadowstar and pinned him to the ground. Shadowstar snarled, rolled onto his back, and began kicking at Nightstar. Nightstar hissed in pain and slashed at Shadowstar's throat.
The black tom snarled and lunged at Nightstar, but missed as the lithe black she-cat was away from him. He was caught by surprise by a powerful blow to his back. He whipped around, slashing at Nightstar. He re-opened the scar over her eye, causing her to hiss in pain and fall backwards. Shadowstar smiled, pinned Nightstar into the ground and raised a paw, ready for the final blow.
Nightstar tried to throw him off, but she was on her back, and so it didn't work well. Shadowstar sunk his claws deep into Nightstar's head, causing her to yowl in pain. Blood was dripping over her eyes as she died almost instantly. She looked around as she was now in a forest that sparkled with starlight. She knew she was in StarClan.
"Oh no...I can't be dead!" She whispered. After a while, she returned to her body. She jumped up and attacked Shadowstar who was about to attack Dawnfall. Shadowstar yowled in surprise as Nightstar slashed at his throat, ripping it open. Blood began to drip from both the wound and his mouth.
"N-no..." He whispered and it was all he managed to say as he coughed up blood constantly. He tried to drag himself away as his vision blurred, but he couldn't see anything. Nightstar was shivering and soon the Tribe of Falling Night saw their dead leader. "Shadowstar! He's dead! Retreat!" The deputy Firefur yowled. The enemies began to run off, covered in scars and blood.
Nightstar stared down at Shadowstar's body. It was finally over. The forest was now safe! Or...it's only what Nightstar had believed. Things will change sooner or later...
