Tawnystar had a mad look in her eye at the first gathering. It's one I remember
well. It was, after all, what began the madness that is my life. One decision to
keep a clan happy. One hartbeat of mistrust. Sent my life in a different direction.

I was sitting next to my older sister, Sunbreeze. The fur on her neck prickled as
she looked up to the highbranches for the gathering to start. She looked uneasy.
"What's wrong sister?" I asked quietly, voices were dimming down as the
ShadowClan leader stepped forward. She shook her head, "Nothing Aslinpaw," I
stared at her for a few moments longer, knowing it wasn't nothing. Her eyes
scanned mine nervously. With a sigh, she gave in. "Alright, it's just that Tawnystar
doesn't look like she's doing too well. I was wondering how many lives she has left."
My sister's gaze traveled once more to the highbranches. I followed her and
observed Tawnystar's unkempt calico pelt and wild green eyes. She didn't look
sick, she looked mad!

My suspicions were confirmed when she spoke. I almost felt sorry for the leader
who was declaring a war on ThunderClan. She must not be taking pressure from
her clan so well anymore. She had lead a good lifetime with her clan, and she was
the oldest leader standing. She'd watched her friends and family die.
But that didn't help my nerves. We were going into a battle! My stomach
clenched with fear and excitement. My first battle! And with ShadowClan! I dug
unsheathed claws into the ground, ready to leap on a cat at that moment. ... I
was a little excitable.

Tawnystar finished her little speach about prey stealing. The clearing was errupt
in yowls of dedication, rage, and defiance. "I knew something wasn't right."
Sunbreeze sighed, looking up at the sky. I studied her suddenly. Her chin was
tilted up to the stars, as if searching them for an answer. "What do you mean?" I
asked carefully. My mind flickered through recent events, wondering what was on
her mind. half-sight's death, the fox getting into medicine supplies, the
ShadowClan medicine cat comming to borrow yarrow and poppy seeds.

"When Tallwhisker came to visit, he asked for a word with me. He told me something
grave was comming between ShadowClan and ThunderClan, but he wasn't sure what.
This must be it! A battle, how could we have prevented this?" She hissed, obviously
displeased with herself. The news surprised me. They knew about this ahead of
time? "But there was nothing you could have done to stop it! It doesn't sound
like Tallwhisker's warning had enough proof to stop anything." Sunbreeze just
stared at the stars more. I heard a voice magnified by the clearing and gazed up
at the highbranches.

"ThunderClan," Halostar began, her rich voice echoing and silencing all of the
chattering clan cats, "Is a strong clan." There were yowls of agreement from my
clan as I stared on, pride making me lift my chin. "We hunt for ourselves, and have
just enough land to do so." The clan yowled it's dedication once more. "A
ThunderClan cat, would never steal prey." She shook her head dismissively, her
eyes closed with a grin on her face. "But a ThunderClan cat will fight for his or her
land. And that is what we will do if you try fighting us. Expect heavy casualties from a
battle that has started on your concious." Halostar turned to her clan, which
erupted in an honorable cheer. "ThunderClan has no new news to bring, but we'll
take our leave now. I don't feel welcome at the moment." Halostar jumped down,
padding through the cluster of ThunderClan cats. We followed her loyally. I'd fight
for ThunderClan if it was the last thing I did!

Tawnystar looked even more furious when Halostar avenged her territory.

Her beautiful eyes blazed with fury and madness. I couldn't help but feel a tad

bit sorry for our leader. "ShadowClan, come." She jumped off and raised her tail and

head high. One thing for sure ; Tawnystar made her appearance clearly memorable

and bold. No one was to forget the gathering in a jiffy. Even without 2 of the clan's

leader's sudden exits. I followed the rest of my clan loyally, although I really didn't

want to. Lilysong followed me. We both here regretful of what we did. We didn't want

the two clans to fight. Innocent lives would be lost. And I couldn't help but feel it was

part ShadowClan's fault. Scratch that -- ALL of ShadowClan's fault.

We returned to camp early. The remaining warriors that stood to guard the camp ;

Grayleaf and Sharptooth ; quickly left their posts and headed over towards us. "What

did they say?" Grayleaf asked, excitement in her eyes. "Did Halostar confess that she

stole from us?" Isighed. "Nothing good, my dear," I replied. "Nothing good." I turned

my dang black head to look at Tawnystar, who jumped onto the burnt branch of a

tree. That was her spot to call the members of ShadowClan for a meeting. Without

waiting for her to summon us, most of the cats padded over to the grounds to hear

what she would say. Those who didn't catch the message saw that cats started to

crowd around the dead branch and quickly went as well. In a few moments, all

of the able clanmates were circled around Tawnystar.

"Cats of ShadowClan," Tawnystar yowled dangerously,"We have been threatened for an

attack by ThunderClan when THEY have been stealing prey from us!" She let out a hiss

and soon the rest of the clan started doing the same ; only to make Tawnystar

happy. "We shall prepare fighting at once. All able cats are to report to the trees every

morning. Warriors will train each other and the apprentices. Even if you don't have one yet.

We will attack before ThunderClan does. We have to prove to them that we are a clan of pride.

Not foolish warriors who break the warrior code!" Tawnystar's eyes swept the clan and then

continued on with her speech. "Starting tomorrow, every cat will start training. And 3 sunrises

from now, we will attack!" The calico leader waved her tail in dismissal, jumped off the

branch, and headed towards her den, leaving her started clan behind her.

I sighed. "Oh Lilysong, what are we supposed to do?!" Lilysong sighed. What can we

do? She's our leader. We can't disobey her." Frustrated, we both padded to the warrior's

den in the brackens and thought about how much trouble we'd be in if Tawnystar

realized most her warriors were against her. Not with her, against her.

ThunderClan padded quickly through their territory. The cats were chattering like crazy,
some excited for the comming battle, some scared, some curious as to where the
scraps of prey came from. I walked alongside Sunbreeze and Halostar. "I just don't get
it," Halostar said, sorrow brimming her mew, "Tawnystar and I used to be ssuch great
friends as young warriors, how could she just go and accuse us of something I know we
didn't do?" Her head hung low and her gaze stayed on the ground underpaw. I felt a
pang of pity for my leader and friend. This couldn't be easy for her.

"Tawnystar is under alot of stress. She's lived a wonderful long life, but her end is
comming, she must feel the need to give one last victory to her clan before she's gone."
Sunbreeze told us thoughtfully. I nodded my head. That's what I had been thinking
earlyer. This can't be easy for her. Sure she can talk to cats she knows in StarClan,
but not the way a medicine cat can, or someone else in StarClan. No cat wants to die.

"That's enough reason as any," I nodded, turning my attention to Halostar once more.
She still didn't look convinced. I sighed. "The best you can do now is comfort your
clan and prepare for a battle to go down in history. The outcome of this will be
remembered in one way or another, and it's your job to be strong for those cats
that don't believe we'll come out the better." I tried to make eye contact with
Halostar. We were just outside the camp and had stopped for a second. She lifted her
chin and studied me for a few moments. At last, she nodded. Halostar took a deep
breath, and like the strong, brave leader she was, lead her clan into the camp.

Cats asked about the gathering immediately. Halostar calmly told them she was going
to call a meeting first. Ravenpaw glared at me. He'd never liked me. "What are you
doing, still hanging out with the leader and deputy? Can't you hang out with apprentices,
or are you too good for us?" He teased. I sighed. He wasn't exactly the most fun cat to
talk to.

"No Ravenpaw, I'm not too good for you. It's just that I like spending time with my
sister, and my sister has to spend time with our leader. I'm sorry if that upsets
you." I lowered my head. He spat at me and turned, retreating to Spottedpaw. She
shrugged at me and I nodded back. He wasn't exactly the nicest cat, but him and
Spottedpaw were kin.

"Aslinpaw! Come here," Sunbreeze meowed. I went to the meeting. I've been told I
give good advice. I'd always thought that was why my sister and Halostar liked having
me around. I was able to think with a clear head, weighing all options. I took my seat
next to my mentor, Morningsong. She smiled at me, ruffling the fur on my head with a
paw.

Sunbreeze explaned the gathering to the senior warriors. Halostar sat just behind my
sister, not betraying any of her hurt thoughts. She looked confident and strong. A
great reasurring figure. Sunbreeze asked for opinions on actions. Roseheart left the
meeting to check her stores. Mudpelt suggested we invade ShadowClan first. I shook
my head. "If we invade ShadowClan, it'll put us in the wrong. We know for a fact it
was rogues who stole their prey, they've been stealing prey on our side as well.
We'll fight better on our own territory as well, ShadowClan land is muddy and
slippery. It'll work best to have the trees and undergroath on our side... And I'd like
to keep my paws dry if that's okay." A round of subdued laughter shook the group,
putting everyone more at ease. Mudpelt tried another idea, insisting me try to train
every cat for the battle. Sunbreeze assured him that everyone would get an
assessment, and that excercizes to keep battle-ready would be manditory.

The next few days were harsh. Battle training was intense, every cat working at their
weaknesses. We had mock battles and kept well-fed. The queens and elders enforced
the camp walls better. There was always something going on in the camp. Always
something for the curious kits to get in trouble for. Their energy kept the spirits up
though. This was what we were fighting for. These kits that caused trouble that would
make honorable warriors, lead the clan, have their own kits. That was what we
needed to fight for. They needed to be well off when we left them.

I had most trouble with my size. I was always a little cat. I learned to work that to my
advantage, fixing moves to suit me better. I couldn't shove someone off of me with
powerful hind legs, but I could kick tendans in legs so that they collapsed. I got the
most excited when I was up against my sister. She was used to fighting bigger cats,
she had my small size. She went at me, but my paws were faster. I knocked her legs
out and flung myself onto her back, jumping high and landing hard on the base of her
neck. I flipped her and pinned her under my paws. She stared up at me surprised,
catching her breath again. "How in StarClan's name did you learn that?" She coughed.
"Morningsong taught it to me. She said it knocks the wind out of a cat, giving you
enough time to pin them. I'm glad it worked!" I laughed, hitting the side of her face
with a sheathed paw. I moved back to give her room.

Those ShadowClan cats could just wait and see how ready ThunderClan was for them.

Waking up the next morning wasn't easy.

Not. At. All.

I was forced to get up by Tigerheart. He was prodding me, and poking me,

and I kept on swiping at him back. He hissed at me, yes, but being that awesome

deputy of him, he didn't get mad at me. He actually understood me. But yeah,

he still made me get up. Unfortunately.

Slowly, I got up and stretched. My back was aching from the terribly uncomfortable

sleep i got. It was barely the crack of dawn. What in the world would Tigerheart

want from this poor warrior? I sighed, shook my whole body awake, then turned

to ShadowClan's deputy.

"What do you want, Tigerheart?" I moaned. "I'm dead tired, man. I need some

sleep." Tigerheart smiled. "Battle training, remember?"I sighed. Of course. I made

his body get up and started walking around. My paws felt numb. Probably not enough

sleep. Even my paws agree! I fumbled and walked out of the den. "Remember the

Training Hollow!" Tigerheart called. I flicked my tail to show that I heard, then

slowly, and tiredly, walked towards our training place.

When I reached the place, there was a big common already. Some cats were

already fighting. Some were watching. A few were talking to each other or

their apprentices, trading battle moves. Seeing Lilysong at the side, I nodded to

her and we both went into our battle crouches. I, being that sweet gentleman,

decided to let Lilysong attack me first. She slowly moved forward, her eyes

on my paws. I only knew her too well. She was going to look like aiming for my

paws, but attack my chest. Heck, she was my best friend. I should know her.

Stealthily, she made her ways to me. At the least expected minute, she

charged at me and sprang, her claws out, going for my chest. "As I

thought," I said, laughing. I dodged her, twisted my body, then flung myself

towards her, landing on her back. She tried to flip me off, but as being

a guy, I was much heavier than her. I twisted her body to where it exposed

her throat and stomach, and she sighed. "Am I THAT obvious?" she asked,

laughing. I nodded. "Yes ma'am, you are!" I let out a laugh. "Want to try that

out again?" I asked. Lilysong nodded. "Yes sir, I do," She gave me a little smile

and suddenly launched herself into the air. Before I knew it, I was thrown off my

feet and landed on the ground, head first. Lilysong let out a laugh. "Hows that

for unexpected?" She said. I kicked her off of me and pounced back onto her.

"Excellent, really excellent," I replied, amusement in my gold eyes. "But

rule number one an apprentice always learns..." Mischief glowed in my eyes.

"Never, ever, take your eyes off your enemy."
