Shadowsong stuck behind for reasons she couldn't explain. There was no reason for her paws to stall. She had every desire to work her fellow warriors up and help lead them into battle for their futures. The will to fight was there, and yet she had stayed behind watching. It felt like her paws had been held. Only word for it, something had held her back.
She was tested, watching Jaggedstar die at the teeth of Direstar. Some of her clan reacted in anger. She didn't feel anger. Now if Brightstar had fallen then she would be hollowing mad. Jaggedstar fell as a leader long before this battle. There was sadness, morning for the cat he had been before he became a leader.
If only she could have rallied her own before this occurred. We, now it was time to step up. Just in time to see Honeystar fall to the white cat she battled before. That one she would mourn as well. There were stops to be made. Running through the battle field without fear, as smooth and normal as running through rapids in her river. First stop came up the wake of the twins running off. She looked at Needlewhisker, Sootpelt and Ravensatch. "Sootpelt, Fawnbriar and the kits are with the Forestclan, safe. If Forestclan falls, they will loose their afterlife too. I won't let my best friend and her kits come to harm!" She had battled both Sootplet and Ravensatch several times, but not today, "I will not fight Lightning or Rock." Unless they attacked her.
She took the time to weave between battling cats to catch Brightstar. It was just a moment and not to challenge the Shecat, just a nod and slow blink of respect, again she had no intent to cause harm to the clan that sheltered hers. She had to defend her right to have different beliefs and the rights of the others in Forestclan. For now, she turned and lunged at a random Starclan tom before he could attack one of hers

Ravensnatch's breath finally slowed and he took air deep into his lungs, the fur on his back momentarily falling flat. "Great battle all." he nodded, craning his head over his shoulder to glance about.
He saw the tail of that golden she cat flee and several cats head for the hills from seemingly all sides. "Ranks are thinin' but Needlewhisker's right, were not out of the woods yet. Rest all who need, I'm still feeling fit. I'll watch your backs." he nodded to Sootpelt, Thornslash and Brightstar in turn. He then turned his attention back to Needlewhisker and chuckled.
"You also, if you need it. Can't have my battle partner fallin flat now." he chuckled as good natured as one could in the presence of war.
Starclan, not fighting Cardinalkit purred up a storm soaking in her mother's love. Now she could tell her about her terrifying day! Putting both of her paws up, she dropped right next to her brother to demonstrate first before remembering to tell the story, "Owlkit jumped out of now wheres! Momma he scared me really, really, reeaaalllyyy bad." Of course such a story earned a dramatic sniffle. Greatest trauma of her little life!
The kit could never know that if she changed out he for she, the description could have counted for a fawnkit not that long ago.
All dramatics drained as her brother 'attacked' her. Laughing she pawed right back at her brother, careful to keep her claws in. "Owlkit is big! We have to work together! Rough rough!" Nodding she playfully mouthed at her brother's ear in her own 'mock war' Fighting and stresses of the adults worlds away from the safe play in their mother's paws. "Lostkit nice though!" She liked that kit, not big and scary!
Cedarfang met his opponent head on. He sprang at his Forestclan rival with claws extended. The two tumbled and rolled, feet kicking, teeth biting. Although he didn't want to kill any cat, Cedarfang had to admit to himself that he did enjoy the heat of battle.
For a moment Cedarfang separated from the other tom. A deep growl rumbled in his throat and his fur bristled. Always wanting to prove himself as a worthy warrior and finish what he started, he dove back towards the Forestclan tom.
Sought but missed as he ducked his head to protect his neck. He turned and launched another attack.(D1)

Honeystar gave a last look over the battlefield before she like the twins was forced to retreat!
Brightstar was still recooping her energy from the last battle and looked to the two cats. She purred seeing Rivermist, no right now she didnt see clan, she didnt even see forestclan or starclan, she saw cats attacking on her side and on the other side. She Twitched her whiskers in welcome. "Rest with me!"
She turned to thornstar and licked his ear. "You are so strong, Take a moment to rest." She rested with them, "Keep faith, i have faith in you both!" (Thornslash and Rivermist are healed.)

Brightstar held Shadowsong's gaze a moment, there was no anger, no disappointment, she just nodded. And understanding between then if nothing else, this was a battle, and just because you were on other sides didnt mean that their blood had to be on your paws.

Sootpelt sat back with a relieved sigh, nodding to Needlewhisker at her words. He was just so relieved everyone was ok that he hadn't even contemplated going after them. He hoped that wouldn't come back to bite them. Instead, he tried to join her in her excitement of victory, but a part of him still felt the pain of loss with it. He hoped it wasn't connected to Fawnbriar.
He was back on his paws when Shadowsong seemed to appear out of nowhere. "Shadowsong?" He hadn't seen her in the gathering so where had she come from? His thoughts halted at her words 'Fawnbriar and the kits are with the Forestclan...' Forestclan!? They were with Forestclan!? But why!?
And just like that she was gone again, "Shadowsong, wait!" he wailed after her, but she was so smooth of paw that he hadn't caught which way she had gone. He could hear his breathing come out in labored pants in his ears. 'they will lose their afterlife too...'
He turned around to look at the gathering of cats around him then back at the battle around him, "W-what do I do!?" he cried mostly to himself, but it was loud enough for everyone to hear. "I-I can't harm them. I can't harm their afterlife." He just wanted to curl up into a ball and die in that very moment. What had she even meant by all of that? How was he harming them?
Please let this all be a dream...

Petalpaw let out a yowl of pain and cringed back. That hurt! He felt blood dropping from his pelt. He became frightened and flead back towards his mentor.

Shatteredstar breaks away long enough to breath a sigh of relief, "Good battle, keep it up!"
Cedarfang stifled a yowl as the Forestclan cat he battled landed a good hit on him. He tried his best to shake it off and sprang on his rival once again. Once more they clashed, both a fury of teeth and claws.

Shadowsong stood there confused for a moment. Her target just ran off! Oh no, she was not going to let that stand. She went after the Starclan cat. These cats were responsible for every bad thing that happened to her clan these last seasons. She couldn't just let the other cat go without getting one more attack in.
Wildflower hissed under her breath as she stank back to the shadows. “Damn flighty runt...” she hissed as she pulled back to lick her wounds. Taking momentary cover in a bush, the she cat caught her breath before waiting for a chance to grab the tiny tom, Direstar’s attention for some healing.
His breathing was heavy and labored but so was that of his opponent. Cedarfang was sure he was bleeding and there was a light ringing in his ears. For a brief moment he glanced around. There were many cats still fighting and in all the chaos he couldn't tell which side was winning. Looking back to the cat he had been fighting with, Cedarfang was afraid that he'd been defeated. With a deep breath he gathered his will and accepted whatever fate may come to him.
"For Starclan." He whispered under his breath and launched himself at the Forestcat with all the strength he had left.
She exhaled slowly, measuring the depth of her own injuries. A boxed ear, still throbbing. Muscles sore from disuse. Ravensnatch's offer was tempting, but she was well enough. Perhaps wishing she had put more time into training recently, but what can you do? "You'll not send me away that easily." Needlewhisker shook herself, surveying the battle as she stepped up beside the tom. "I'll be alright for a few more scuffles. We should-"
The appearance of the she-cat took the words out of her mouth. Needle couldn't think of her name - so certainly not Lightningclan - but Starclan witness, she looked strong. The she-cat's green gaze flickered between the newcomer and Sootpelt, judging the weight of their words. Rockclan, then. And this newcomer, Shadowsong... She had values. The sort that Needlewhisker could respect. Even if she did support this mysterious code that was not Starclan's. If only there was time to pull her aside and ask her about it! But no, she was gone again just as quickly.
Besides, there were more important things at hand. Shooting Ravensnatch a look, the she-cat approached a panicking Sootpelt. "Listen, lad. Heed me!" A paw raised - not to strike him, but aiming instead to grab his cheek with no small amount of firmness. "Keep hold of yourself. This isn't the time to panic. None of us want to harm our own - well, not most of us. But the fight is happening, and you can't well hide your head and pretend it isn't.
"But your mate there has the right idea, aye? Choose your targets. Don't hurt your friends. No Lightning, no Rock." A scowl deepened on her muzzle. "If you want to play it safe, attack the ones who brought us into this scrap. Find cats o' the Dark Forest, an' lay them low. That way your mates wake up, an' you still do your part." Would that she had seen that truth on her own! They may have been called here, but they still had their own will. They could choose how to play this game.
Heh...getting old and silly, she was. Not something she could afford to do if mad murderers were stalking around in their dreams.
