Four-Clan Battle

"You've hit your head, you'll be alright, just stay still." Icetail mewed firmly.

She could smell and hear the fear coming from the young cat so she continued, "You're brother is badly hurt, but I am sure he will recover."

Horribly short sorry.

Golden eyes gleamed with satisfaction at her comment. "Brave fool," he hissed in her face, deliberatley leaning in to add a more menacing effect. It would be best to scare her if he could, Ravenclaw thought. "Your words are pointless."

Raising a white forepaw, the tom let his claws slide out. Then in a quick movement he flashed them toward Sorrelpaw's underbelly, attempting to leave a long mark there.

Any other cat would have stayed, would have finished her off. But that was not Ravenclaw's strategy. He wanted to leave her weak; then come back for her later.

Attempting to give her one last minor scratch, Ravenclaw leapt off and suddenly he was gone, vanishing into the battle and leaving Sorrelpaw.

Worry creased Dapplestorm's face after she brought Nightpaw. The she-cat had staggered over to her brother, who was still lying on one side.

"Is there anything I can do to help?" the tortoiseshell asked Icetail, desperacy filling her tone which was very unlike her. "I want to be helpful. And fighting isn't a strength of mine. If there's something I can do, you name it, I'll do it."

Dapplestorm gave a determined nod, pale green eyes flashing. She would protect her Clanmates with her life, she realized, as this was a battle she couldn't fight so well.

Sorrelpaw screeched as her belly was shredded. She felt like she was on fire, she howled, paws scrabbling, trying to staunch the bleeding.

She tried to roll over, to stand, to find help. But she was too weak, agony tearing her strength away. She was dying, slowly yes, but she was dying. She could be saved, but only if Dustripe or Greystream found her.

She curled into a tight ball, trembling, she did not know when the Fogclan cat would return, but she knew he would. And she knew what would happen when he did.

She would die.

Icetail flicked her tail, "Nothing right now. All any of us can do is wait."

And pray. she added to herself.

And she did, her mind consumed with pleas to Starclan.
