IN the clearing where a battle unfolds...

It was days after Lokistar told Darkcloud her past. Lokistar had become thin and her sandy/silvery pelt was no more then a lone elders too old to groom itself... She was beaten in a way that everything she had worked for, everything that she had tried to hide she had handed out and although her mothers voice tolde her to speak a problem would be medicine, Lokistars mind was twisting. She lay in her nest her head talked in her paws and her eyes open and tired. Dayriser padded into the den "Lokistar you don't look well!" he commented with a hint of coldness into his mew. "Let me hunt for you," He purred... "No need to hunt for me Flight... Dayriser.... Ahhh but I will you stay here..." he bolted wildly out of the camp....

Glaciercloud padded into Lokistars den, and looked at her "Lokistar what has happened to you!" She gasped, not even waiting for a respone "Lokistar i have important news, Dayriser cannot be trusted, days earlier, Daystream heard him talking to another cat called Tron, about our clans weakness." She said walking towards Lokistar.

Lokistar looked at the Medicine cat... "Daystream are you sure... they... they never got on anyway..." It was hard but Lokistar heard a shrill yowling of cats and looked around her... "Glaciercloud get all the warriors up and the ones that cannot fight into the nursery...." Lokistar sprung up and leapt down and yowled as cats poured out of their nests. "Where is Daystream?" She mewed counting them all. "Tigerpaw shrugged "he was their but he went off in a strop he said he was going to make dirt..." Lokistar looked at the apprentice with a tone of panic welling inside her... "Tigerpaw, Whitepaw and Ezziepaw wll stay and fight.... the rest are not experianced enough to do such a thing now go into the Nursery the ones who cannot fight." they all obeyed and Lokistar scented the air...

Glaciercloud was in shock " Would you like me to fight?!?" She said to Lokistar, then, Leopardstorm came running up with Nighttail behind her [b]"Whats going on?!?" she said with a state of panic.

"Glaciercloud I want you to go into the nursery!" she ordered but before anyone could reply, Cats burst through the clearing and everyone was In conflict... "great starclan!" Darkcloud mewed..." Lokistar saw Leopardstorm attacking two of them while Darkcloud was caught by another. Yowls and spiting went up as an uproar and scarlets blood began to gather in small puddles. "Dont lose heart!" Lokistar Yowled taring ones throat, and attacking one that had Tigerpaw pinned...

Glaciercloud yelped at as the many cats started attacking the clan, she ran into the nursury as quick as she could. Leopardstorm jumped in the air, getting ready to land in one of them, when one of them tackled her to the ground, getting ready to lash out at her throat but flipped him over and she was onee top and she bit into his thrroat killing him, then the she cat clawed her off and then she started battleing the she-cat fiercely. Glaciercloud was scared, she was in the back, the very back with Leafkit and Stormkit, it was dark in there, she then saw a figure into the den, she was in shocked cause she didn't know what to do.

Lokistar was almost lost in the battle she had to fight over the dead bodies of the fallen, She was covered in scarlet blood and soon the tide began to push cats were being pinned and she realized that they were outnumbered. A Kit yowled in pain as Tron held it high, "SURRENDER!" a bald cat hissed. Lokistar stood stock still and was rammed to the ground... putting the kit down tron shook his bloody coat... "that was messy" he mewed . Dayriser padded in from the entrance and padded to stand next to Tron. "Your right nothing too special about this one!" mocked a black she cat, Tron looked at lokistar the blood on her fur covered her unusual markings... "wait a second.... Dunk the leader get that blood of her head," he nodded to a deep puddle of clean water. Dragging Lokistar over they head underwater and she thought she was about to die as they pulled her back out. Her luna striped pelt was badly recognizable... "Lokipaw?" Lokistar blinked. "Lokistar now!" she spluttered, "WHAT YOU KNOW HER?" Dayriser spat... "yes i do..."

"What happened to Flightpaw," Tron mewed, "died," Lokistar Replied, "Oh..." tron looked away, Ashamed?
Dayriser growled "Can we not just kill them and hurry up, She dumped her kit, she should die..." Whitetip bounced forward. "She killed Tawnystar and the deputy and Nightkit..." "WHAT!" Hissed Lokistar as gasps errupted

Glaciercloud back the kits all the way to the wall, but then the cat left, she then heard the fighting stop, was it over? she thought, she told the kits to stay their and then she walked slowly she looked out of the den, she saw all the warriors and apprentices surrounded, she watched as they dunked her head underwater and brought it back out and then appearntly tron knew her, maybe if she got out, she can run to abyss clan get help, but what if they killed her, she didn't know what to do, she whispered to the 2 kits to come up to follow her. She soflty walked out of the den and walked around it while everyone was paying attention to Lokistar, she ran into the forest and told the kits to stay behind a tree and then ran up behind a tree and then up beside the medicine cat den, and continued to watch them to see what they'll do to her, but she knew she had to go but she was nervous to leave her, their with all them cats.

"no whitepaw that was lies..." Black the ogue who had already caused Tawnyclan a lot of pain padded forward. "You have said such horrable tings about your leader... when she was right behind you..." whitepaw stared in astonishment "sorry Lokistar..."
Lokistar's fur was un ruffled...
"hurry up and kill them!" snapped Dayriser angrily... "Dayriser..." Tron choked sadly "Lokistar is your mother..."

Silverpaw: in the mist of all this I always thought the first glimpse of a fight would be so cool and that I would fight but now that I was hear this was. There was no way to explain it I watched all the cats I sat by Ezziepaw and watch as Lokistars son looked trouble after all he had just found out

Dayriser gasped unbeleivably nearly falling down... "I had you on the night of our journey when we were kicked out..." lokistar spluttered "You out of three were the only one to survive... I didnt want you to be carrired that yound I... didn't know what to do but I met Tron and Sheegra..." Lokistar coughed weakly "I am proud to see your sso strong..."

Silverpaw: my eyes grew wide as I heard this Dayriser so unlike Lokistar was her-her son???? I face was puzzled

swiftpaw: I sat by silverpaw getting more confused by the second i looked over to silver paw with a worried look.

"You can't be I look nothing like you..." "You are your fathers spitting image," she mewed, "What happened to him," growled Dayriser, "he died... He was scared that the path Tawneystar was leading the group-was dangerous and went further but to die by the fangs of a dog... he saved us all..." "But I thought you never had a mate..." Whitepaw muttered dryly. "I only loved Flightfur, I turned every other down, I wanted to lead the clan and not make so many mistakes..."
Tron looked at his paws and everyone began to become restless...

Silverpaw: I looked onward not glancing anywhere but my leaders face mixd emotions filled me, but my face showed nothing I sat tall and did not look at Swiftpaw I looked onward nothing showed, my eyes were my only things exposed no matter what your eyes always show how you feel and right now I felt confused sad betrayed I felt confused because I so wanted to become a leader like Lokistar when I grew up but know I was not so sure, could you not have love when you are a leader? I felt sad for Lokistr she had gone through so much and Whitepaw and Tigerclaw did not help then and only then I allowed my eyes to turn Towards them, hatred filled my eyes it was as if flames really DID burn in my eyes then I turned to Lokistar as troubled as her son. Maybe Lokistar and Dayriser were alike, in their own unique way. Through all these emotions and thoughts I sat tall the only thing betraying my look was my burning crystal eyes

Glaciercloud was shocked by it all, she then wondered, maybe she didnt need to go to Abyssclan yet, she then slid quickly to the medicine den, and grabbed some death berries and the then hurried out, she knew they could when if she trick Tron into eating these "Lokistar, eat these they'll make you heal quickly and make you stronger then 10 cats" she said as she rolled them towards Lokistar.

swiftpaw: i stared onward wishing to be able to say something.

Lokistar looked at the berries as did Tron... "Fool..!" spat the fur less she cat by them, Blood berries are well known from where we come from..." she sneered launching them away. "Tron give us the orders NOW!" Tron stood still to confused to move, when a angry yowl broke out of them all... "FOOLS!" spat Sheegra... "I am your real mother Dayriser I shared you my milk i looked after you...." Lokistar looked at the green eyed she cat...
"Kill her Tron...." "I... I_" "FINE!" Sheegra pounced forward put a flamy pelt brushed her to the side... IT WAS DAYRISER!!!!

Silverpaw: I gasp in horror as Sheegra pounces then Dayriser pushes her aside!!!! I was asstounished but I still did not move I stayed in my position sitting tall watchig only my eyes betrayed my feelings and thoughts

swiftpaw: I stared in utter shock.

Silverpaw: then All of a sudden the gash in my side hurt with so much pain I wanted to cry the owl gash hurt badly I cringed as it continued to hurt, worse and worse. Were was Glaciercloud?????? I needed her badly! The wound had never been healed!

swiftpaw: I turned to silverpaw i saw her cringe " w-whats wrong are you okay" i said in worried

Silverpaw: "No need to worry it is just that the owl got me with his tallon and ripped some of my flesh open I did not tell anyone because i was already causing trouble being caught by a owl and stuff so I hid it under my fur" I said revealing the spot
It had been hidden, it was a nasty gash and needed to be treated. Badly. I cringed again

swiftpaw: my eyes widened in shock at seeing it "it looks like a wound that should have been treated ages ago and i am sure it would have been no bother but know we have this going" i said lookinng at thw wound and letting myself ramble slightly.
