looked pleased with herself.
"I have finshed. Leafstar?" Leafstar stood up and started.
"LeafClan are good, although we suffered from a outbreak of whitecough. No one died, but we had to sit vigil for Smokepaw. He died saving Waterpaw from the gorge. We also sat vigil for Secondleaf. We found her body in a clearing outside the cave. She proberly fell off the edge." Many LeafClan cats mewed sadly in agreement. Snowstar felt slightly guitly of Secondleaf's death. Badgerstripe told her that he killed Secondleaf after what happened to her.
"Snowstar?" Leafstar asked.
"Thank you Leafstar. SnowClan is new, but we are doing well. We have built dens and we have lots of new kits. However, we had to sit vigil for 7 cats a few nights ago because we were attacked by dogs. We survived it because we are Snowclan, the 4th clan in the forest!" She yowled. Her clan yowled in agreement. Bloodstar rolled his eyes. Snowstar then let Bloodstar speak.
"BloodClan are doing well. The prey is running and we welcomed a new warrior, Growlfang!" BloodClan chanted his name. Growlfang smiled. Bloodstar turned to Snowstar.
"You may have survied the attack, but it looks like you like allowing your clan to die." He growled. Leafstar and Rainstar gasped. The SnowClan cats bristled with fury. Snowstar just shook her head and spoke.
"My cats die for the sake of their clan." Snowstar sighed. Leafstar then piped up.
"Bloodstar, you cannot control your clan because we have smellt BloodClan on our terrortory. Keep off or we will attack." Snowstar smiled at Leafstar. Leafstar smiled back.
"The gathering is over, for StarClan's sake." Bloodstar hissed. He led his cats away quickly. Snowstar jumped off the branch and summoned her clan over.
Capture!

The next morning, when Snowstar woke up, her kits were gone! She called their names. Hawkeyes woke up to find Morningkit missing. Robineye was looking for Bubblekit. Heartfly wailed because her kits were gone. In fact, all the kits were gone! Shadowstep padded in and Robineye buried her muzzle in his fur.
"What's wrong?" He asked.
"The kits are gone!" Robineye wailed. Everyone heard this and went to the nursery to find the missing kits. Badgerstripe sadly dipped his head. Patrols were sent out but they found nothing.
"I'm going to lead a patrol and take Shadowstep, Clawedear and Squirrelpaw." Snowstar meowed. The patrol set off into the forest until they heard a high-pitch squeal.
"That's Bubblekit! Come on!" Shadowstep meowed despretly. They followed the squeal until they came to the boarder with BloodClan. Bloodstar came towards the cats, grining.
"I'm guessing you've stumbled into our little trap. We have your kits and won't return them! Get them, BloodClan!" He yowled.
"Retreat! There are too many!" Snowstar yowled. The patrol fleed back to their own terrortory. Badgerstripe and Lizardeye greeted the frightened patrol.
"What happened?" Badgerstripe asked.
"BloodClan.. are.. evil.. they.. stole.. our.. kits!" Snowstar rasped. Lizardeye's fur birstled with anger. Suddenly, a LeafClan patrol and a RainClan patrol came towards the boarder. They dipped their heads in respect.
"Greetings Snowstar. I am Stonetail, LeafClan deperty. We've come for your help."
"RainClan have too. I am Oceansplash, RainClan deprety. BloodClan have stolen our kits!"
"They have stolen our kits too. LeafClan and RainClan will fight against them, will you join us? We fear that 2 clans are too weak. 3 are stronger."
"Certainly Stonetail and Oceansplash. They have stolen our kits too."
"Bring some cats to LeafClan camp then Snowstar. We are going to discuss ideas."
"We'll meet you there."

A few minutes later, Snowstar and nearly all her warriors and apprentices found themself in the LeafClan terrortory. The 3 leaders stood on a tall rock.
"All cats old enough to catch their own prey join under the Tall Stone for a LeafClan, RainClan and SnowClan meeting!" Leafstar yowled. The warriors and apprentices came to the leaders at once.
"As you are aware, kits from all the clans were stolen by BloodClan. We are gathered here to plan our attack. Our revange!" The clan cats yowled in agreement. Ideas came out.
"Steal their kits!"
"Make the Twolegs invade them!"
"Kill them all!"
"Exile them!"
"Destroy their healing herbs!" It then got out of control.
"Quiet, everyone! We are attacking them, not exiling and stealing!" Leafstar shouted. It fell so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
"I have a idea." Snowstar mewed. "Maybe we can send 3 patrols, 1 from each clan with 4 cats on it. " The plan continued.

Lizardeye stood on a hill with his patrol. Snowstar had explained the plan and everyone agreed. 3 more SnowClan patrols were waiting for the signal. Lizardeye was with Duckfoot, Darkpaw and Emeraldpaw.
"Are we ready?" A voice said. It was Sparrowsong, a RainClan senior warrior. "Thunderfoot is ready."
"SnowClan are good to go." Lizardeye replied. The cats followed Thunderfoot to the BloodClan camp. They stopped on another hill that was smaller.
"CHARGE!" Thunderfoot yowled. The 12 cats sprinted down the hill and confused the BloodClan cats. Duckfoot clawed Shadowstrike. Darkpaw and Squirrelpaw fought Pigeonfeather. Lizardeye, Sparrowsong and Thunderfoot attacked Featherkink and Fangpaw.
"You will pay for this with your life!" Featherkink whispered angrily to Lizardeye. Lizardeye clawed her eye. She jumped back in pain. Suddenly Sparrowsong was yowling.
"Sharpeye!" Her mate was laying on the ground, his body covered in blood and completely motionless. She buried her muzzle into his fur. The first good cat was dead, and he didn't deserve to die.
"Why StarClan? Why!?" Sparrowsong yowled.
Lizardeye sighed. He had feelings for Sparrowsong, but being a good deprty he helped Thunderfoot send Fangpaw running. Duckfoot then went for a new cat, Deadthroat. Lizardeye knew he would have to call the next patrols shortly, because they were now being outnumbered.

At the top of the second hill, Clawedear's patrol were rearing to go. He had Shadowstep, Barkpaw and Leafpaw. He noticed that Leafpaw seemed to be friendly with Silverpaw, a RainClan she-cat. Shadowstep was speaking to the LeafClan warriors. Being a senior warrior was a important duty for Clawedear. He had to set a good example for younger warriors in all 4 clans. Suddnely, a loud yowl startled the cats.
"Lizardeye's battle cry!" Shadowstep meowed. The next patrols ran down the hill, hissing and spiting. The LeafClan patrol leader Butterfly (a loner who joined LeafClan) seemed to run faster than the others and the RainClan patrol leader Tidalwave admired her swift, sharp skills.
"Attack them!" A voice yowled. It was BloodClan, it sounded nothing like the others. Clawedear then noticed Squirrelpaw being pinned down by Longtooth. He charged into Longtooth and Darkpaw clawed his neck. Clawedear thanked the apprentice and pounced onto Foxrunner. She then yelped in pain.
"Please! Stop! I don't want to be in BloodClan!" She yowled. Clawedear gasped. What was this cat doing?
"BloodClan are evil and spiteful. I am teased because I have never attacked another diffrent clan cat in my life. Please may I join your clan!?"
"Well, you may fight with us, but when we are finshed you must come with me to our leader for permisson." He leapt off Foxrunner and instead pounced onto One-ear. Clawedear clawed his muzzle and sank his teeth into his scuff. He was dead. Pigeonfeather yowled with sorrow and jumped onto Clawedear. He couldn't breath.
"Help!" He gasped. A cat noticed the cry and bounded over to Pigeonfeather. The cat pulled Pigeonfeather off Clawedear and threw her across the clearing. The cat that had rescued Clawedear was Butterfly.
"Thank you." Clawedear meowed. He dipped his head in respect and joined Thunderfoot fighting Venombite. Lizardeye then heard a scream. It was Sparrowsong! She was being pinned down by Growlfang. Lizardeye charged into Growlfang and sent him flying across the clearing. Sparrowsong purred and went to help Silverpaw. Lizardeye sat down and sighed. Such beauty, he thought.

The last patrols were resting on the hill, waiting for the signal. Badgerstripe was leading this patrol and had Bearpelt, Squirrelpaw and Cloudpaw. He was embrassed because his patrol was going with Stonetail and Oceansplash. The leaders would bring the remining cats on the 3rd cry. Sparrowsong's daughter Melodystep was on the RainClan patrol and she seemed to be the chattiest. Suddenly another yowl was heard.
"The battle cry!" Bearpelt meowed. The last patrols ran out to a battlefield filled with blood, fur and dead or alive cats. Owlpaw, a LeafClan apprentice hurled himself with the help of Squirrelpaw at Pigeonfeather. Suddenly Badgerstripe saw a body of a cat. It was Lizardeye!
"Lizardeye!" Badgerstripe yowled. He rushed over to the SnowClan tom. He sighed sadly. Then Badgerstripe said "Phew!". Lizardeye wasn't dead, he was just resting. Badgerstripe woke him up and they went off to fight Deadthroat. Badgerstripe charged at Featherkink.
"BloodClan will win, you'll see!" She hissed. Suddenly they heard a loud yowl. It was a BloodClan cat! Badgerstripe froze in terror. What if the leader's mistook it for a battle cry? Thankfully, none of them turned up. The cat who yowled was Shrededtail, the deprty. He jumped down and charged towards Sparrowsong, who ran away from him. Badgerstripe thought she had gone mad until she started to lead him into the gorge! Badgerstripe decided to help her and chased Fangpaw towards the gorge. He the stopped as he saw Shrededear go over the edge and Sparrowsong clinging onto a clump of grass. Badgerstripe got her by the scuff and pulled her up. She thanked him and rushed over to Lizardeye to help him fight Venombite. Badgerstripe knew that Lizardeye said that he could give the battle cry out next, so he got ready to call the last cats in.

Snowstar, Leafstar and Rainstar laid down on the hill. Snowstar had Riverstripe, Moonpaw and Deerleap, the last cats remaining. The others were guarding camp. Leafstar had Bugpaw and Wingbeat. Rainstar had Toadthroat and Frogpaw. Snowstar had told the 2 leaders that her mate would signal the battle cry instead of Lizardeye. Leafstar and Rainstar liked talking about their life. Snowstar found out that Leafstar's mate was Thunderfoot and she had 2 kits, Berrypaw and Grasspaw. Rainstar had no mate and her sister ran away from the clan after being threated to be killed. She was now Flowerstar, leader of FlowerClan that lived in the mountains. Suddenly the all-important battle cry was heard. The remaining 10 cats ran down the hill into the battle. After they did, Bloodstar showed himself and gasped in horror.
"Pigeonfeather! Featherkink! Birdpaw! Guard the nursery!" He yowled. The 3 she-cat obeyed him and ran. Snowstar had a idea.
"Deerleap! Duckfoot! Lizardeye! Darkpaw! Attack the nursery defence!" She yowled. The cats ran towards the nursery and attempted to break in. They failed. Leafstar had to help too.
"Thunderfoot! Owlpaw! Butterfly! Wingbeat! Help our SnowClan neighbours fight that defence!" She yowled. The cats ran to help the struggling SnowClan cats. Again, failure struck. Rainstar was their only hope now.
"Sparrowsong! Tidalwave! Meldodystep! Silverpaw! Go and help our friends!" She yowled. The RainClan cats followed to the 8 cats and fought against the defence. The 12 cats succesfully broke the defence and ran into the nursery. In there, 5 queens were defending the nursery. The missing kits
