Hey guys! These following chapters will be really short because I only have four left to write before chapter twenty, which will be my closing chapter. My next book will be called Leaves Falling. Enjoy!

"No!"

Glowstorm screamed as Pricklestar lunged forward, and slit Heatherfur's neck. Everything afterward seemed to happen in slow motion. The 25 or so SnowClan cats arrived in the battle, Glowstorm's fur shining with a fierce silvery light as the moon reflected off of it, sending at least 50 DarkClan cats sprawling to the ground, yowling as the blinding flash hit their eyes. Treelight yanked her away from the beams of light that seemed to be vibrating off of her.

Treelight asked, looking at Heatherfur's staring eyes with a shudder. Glowstorm nodded, and they put her down, her mate closing the cat's eyelids gently before hefting her again.

"Going somewhere?"

Growled a raspy voice from behind them. They whirled around to find Gravefur stalking towards them, the knockout serum in one paw, and Pricklestar's corpse being dragged along with the other...
