fighting Poison. Ivyfur was a medicine cat, there was no way she would win against a strong rouge. Blazestrike charged into Poison and sent him flying into Darkmystery and another rouge called Cobra. Ivyfur looked like a frightened kit.
"Go and get help!" Blazestrike ordered.
"I want to help." Ivyfur mummered. "I led you here."
"You don't fight though!" Blazestrike protested.
"Still, I'm prepared to sacrifse my life to help you guys escape." Ivyfur said.
"Go and get help, that's a order!" Blazestrike snapped. "Now!" Ivyfur gulped and ran out. Darkmystery just glanced at Moonsky. She still was knocked out. Had he killed her by accident? He stood back against the wall and tried to charge at Blazestrike. However, Blazestrike had seen this and was prepared. He just took 1 small step to the left and sent Darkmystery charging into a thorn bush instead of him. "Having fun in there?" Blazestrike joked.
"You... fox-hearted...mouse." Darkmystery groaned weakly, limping out. He looked like a over-sized hedgehog. "Why did... you... do that? Someone could... have got... hurt."
"Well, you already did." Blazestrike's face turned serious and he pounced onto Darkmystery, pinning him down. "You better have not harmed Moonsky. I swear by StarClan, if I find out that you or your little friends have given her the slightest scatch, I'll tear you to pieces, no questions asked."
"Ooh really?" Darkmystery said sarcasticly, rolling his eyes. "Right, here's the deal. We'll fight alone. Whoever wins is proven the strongest and gets Moonsky. If you win, you can have her and I might stop my plans. If I win, i'll take her and you can get lost and never show your face to her or me again."
"Don't do it Blazestrike!" Wildheart yowled, getting up from Blood's powerful grip. "You'll only get yourself killed!"
"I'll take on your deal." Blazestrike meowed bravely. Darkmystery grinned. "Just in case your friends try to help you, they'll be kept as prisoners until the end of this fight." He signaled Adder and the huge tom grabbed the SnowClan warriors. He put them beside Moonsky, who still hadn't woken up. The rouges stood back, watching the fight. Darkmystery and Blazestrike circled eachother, snarling and growling. They then pounced into action. Blazestrike bit Darkmystery's scuff and scatched his muzzle. Darkmystery jumped away from Blazestrike's grip and pounced onto him, scatching his face again and again. Wildheart looked down at Moonsky. She was certain that she had just seen Moonsky twich her ear. The white she-cat opened her eyes and groaned. "What happened? Where am I?"
"Darkmystery knocked you out and now you're in a cave watching Darkmystery and Blazestrike fight." Wildheart blutted out.
"Shut up!" Shadowstep hissed. "You could have made her stressed!"
"Sorry." Wildheart mumbled, licking her paws. Moonsky gasped in horror as she watched the fight. Darkmystery only had a bleeding muzzle and a cut on his back. Blazestrike already had several face wounds and his shoulder was bleeding. He wasn't defeated though. Blazestrike charged at Darkmystery and bit his leg, refusing to let go.
"Get off me you mangy fleabag!" Darkmystery growled, pulling at his ear. Blazestrike yelped in pain and Darkmystery slashed his leg. Blazestrike fell to the floor and couldn't move. Darkmystery smiled and let out a victory yowl. "I have won and as the deal states I claim Moonsky!" Wildheart and Shadowstep dipped their heads sadly. Darkmystery padded up to Moonsky. "Come on, you're mine now." He purred.
"Could I atleast say goodbye to Blazestrike first?" Moonsky asked.
"Fine, but only a few minutes." Darkmystery growled. He turned to Shadowstep and Wildheart. "You are free to go." He meowed. The 2 cats rushed up to Blazestrike along with Moonsky. "Blazestrike," She mummered. "Are you ok?"
"Not really." Blazestrike mumbled. He lifted his head up slightly and looked up at his friends. "Did I win?"
"Darkmystery won, sorry." Wildheart explained with a sour expression on her face.
"Great, just what I need." Blazestrike groaned. Moonsky giggled quietly and buried her muzzle in Blazestrike's fur. "You're not dying, are you?"
"No." Blazestrike replied. "I just have some bad injuries. But whatever you do, don't fight him. He'll kill you, I know he will. Just hold on and watch your back, you'll survive." Moonsky then started crying quietly, her tears dropping onto Blazestrike's fur. Wildheart tried to comfort her, but she obviously didn't want to leave Blazestrike, injured and defeated. Shadowstep sat up and spoke. "If you stay, you'll get into a fight with Darkmystery. If you go, no more violence will be done here and Blazestrike will be looked after by Ivyfur."
"But what about my kits?" Moonsky sobbed. Darkmystery padded up to them. "Time's up, come on." He meowed, walking off. Moonsky followed him, glancing back at Shadowstep and Wildheart. "Bye." The rouges followed on silently. Ivyfur then came back with a small patrol, panting.
"You're too late." Wildheart said sadly.
"Why? So I ran all that way, got into trouble with BloodClan, gathered up a patrol and ran back for nothing?" Ivyfur snapped angrily.
"Darkmystery won the fight. He has taken Moonsky and Blazestrike has been forbidden to show his face." Shadowstep sighed. Ivyfur was furious. "Maybe you could have warned me!" She hissed, walking away. Blazestrike was shocked. He had never known Ivyfur to be like this, she was gentle and kind, not snappy.
"Wait, did she say that she ran into trouble with BloodClan?" Wildheart asked.
"She did... we have to find her!" A voice meowed desperatly. It was Owlpaw, along with Falconsong, Bearpelt, Morninghawk and Treepaw.
"You 5 return to camp. Say nothing about Ivyfur. We'll take Blazestrike back and speak to Ivyfur then." Shadowstep ordered. The patrol padded back while Wildheart nudged Blazestrike to his feet. "What will I tell my kits?" He asked.
"Let us handle this. You have gone through a lot in just 2 days, you need some rest." Shadowstep said gently. Blazestrike nodded and limped beside the deputy. A stranger

"Now what are we going to do?" Wildheart complained. "Ivyfur refused to talk to us about it."
"Why don't you use me?" Fernwhisker suggested. "I can be put to some use, seeing as I am a good friend of Ivyfur."
"Fantastic. Thank you Fernwhisker." Shadowstep said with a smile. Fernwhisker nodded and walked out towards the medicine den. She took a deep breath and walked in, smiling. "Hi Ivyfur."
"Oh, hello Fernwhisker." Ivyfur meowed unenthustaticly.
"Morninghawk told me that you ran into trouble with BloodClan." Fernwhisker said, lifting her head up. Ivyfur glanced at Blazestrike, who was sleeping, and turned back to Fernwhisker. "Can you keep a secret?"
"Of course. You're my friend." Fernwhisker mewed, sitting down beside her.
"Well, I didn't really run into trouble with BloodClan. I made that up." Ivyfur said in a low voice. "I went looking for herbs until I came across this little mewling kit. It had a strange scent on it, but it spelt like Puffinpaw when she first came to the clan."
"Puffinpaw's from FlowerClan... so it's a FlowerClan kit." Fernwhisker gasped.
"Yes, it was. I couldn't leave it there, so I gently picked it up in my jaws and tried to find it's mother until I came across a patrol with FlowerClan scent." Ivyfur whispered. "They accused me of kit-stealing until one of the senior warriors noticed my scent, and realised I was a SnowClan cat. FlowerClan think SnowClan are the most powerful clan in the whole circle of clans, so they were very apologetic. They explained their territory had been attacked by mountain lions and 1 kit had run off towards the forest, so they sent out a patrol to find it. They invited me back to their territory and we spoke about our clans. One tom, I think he was called Grassfur, him and I are good friends. He thought it was cool, the fact that I was a medicine cat and mentor to Puffinpaw, who had been a good friend to him."
"Then what happened?" Fernwhisker asked.
"Well..." Ivyfur's voice went quieter and she sounded upset. "When I started to leave, Grassfur had followed me back and asked me something I never should have agreed to."
"What did he ask? Please tell me!" Fernwhisker begged.
"He asked me to be his mate." Ivyfur whispered. "I accepted, but he didn't realise that medicine cats couldn't have mates. I am going to see him tonight and tell him."
"But it's too late!" Fernwhisker said angrily. "When you're mated, you can do nothing about breaking up! You're going to have his kits! I would never think you would do this, you are a mouse-brained fool!" She walked out, snarling. Shadowstep padded up to her. "What's wrong?" He asked.
"Ivyfur is a stupid mouse-brain." Fernwhisker mumbled angrily. "She lied and broke the warrior code."
"What?!" Shadowstep was in shock.
"I'm not in the mood for talking right now, just go away." Fernwhisker hissed, stalking out. Shadowstep gave a warning growl. "Respect your deputy."
"Oh for StarClan's sake, quit pestering her." A voice said. It was Puffinpaw. "Learn to control your paitence, Shadowstep. It will help you greatly."
"You're acting like one of the elders." Shadowstep teased.
"Well, if you know your clan history well, FlowerClan are decents of the ancient OwlClan, the wisest clan in the history of clans." Puffinpaw meowed, giggling.
"StarClan are the wisest, mouse-brain!" Falconsong laughed, overhearing the conversation. "OwlClan were the second wisest, so ha ha."
"I ment clans that acutally lived, not dead sprit cats." Puffinpaw sniggered. Suddenly, a cat started shouting in fear. "Invader! He's trying to break into the nursery!" Everyone stopped and rushed into the nursery. With Moonsky's absance, only 1 queen was in the nursery, fighting off the huge tom. Bearpelt and Swiftlegs grabbed the invader and gave him threating growls. Snowstar padded in. "Please take the strange to my den." She ordered. "I will be there shortly." Bearpelt and Swiftlegs led the tom into Snowstar's den and waited for Snowstar to return. The she-cat padded in with Shadowstep beside her. Snowstar sat down and glanced at the tom. "What is your name?"
"I am Courage." The tom replied. "I do you no harm."
"But why did you break into the nursery?" Shadowstep asked.
"I am on the run from a clan around here. I thought you guys were that clan, but obviously not. I apologise." Courage meowed.
"Which clan and why?" Snowstar asked, cleaning her fur.
"BloodClan, because I killed one of their senior warriors." Courage explained. "They swore by StarClan to kill me if I show my face again in their territory. I think they are going to warn the other clans about me, saying I am cold-hearted killer."
"You don't seem it." Snowstar meowed. "Well, I'm Snowstar, leader of SnowClan. The black tom beside me is Shadowstep, my trusted deputy. The brown she-cat is Bearpelt, a senior warrior and the black and white tom is Swiftlegs, one of the newer warriors."
"Well, I am glad to meet you all." Courage mewed, dipping his head respectfully.
"That's not all of us. There's loads of cats." Swiftlegs laughed. "A clan is made up of several cats, not just 4."
"I see." Courage lifted his head up slightly. "I am very intrested in this clan
