? POV

Littlecloud had returned to collect more catmint...only to find that it all had vanished. Coincidentally, a tuft of tortoiseshell fur was found on a nearby thorn bush. He hurried back to camp and reported this news to his Clan. Furious, Blackstar formed two battle patrols and immediately started off towards ThunderClan. ShadowClan was determined to make Blossomstar pay. I was determined to make both of them suffer, the two Clans I despised the most.

I watched as Blackstar led a patrol of warriors into the ThunderClan camp. He left the other patrol waiting beneath the Sky Oak.

I scrambled up the trunk of the ancient tree, climbing higher and higher until I feared that I would fall. I glanced down at the ground and my stomach lurched. The ShadowClan warriors were dots of color with a soft green background beneath them. I looked upwards and closed my eyes. Then, I climbed up just a little higher to where a large branch had nearly snapped off on its own, likely during a storm. I tensed my muscles and jumped forcefully, pushing all my weight onto the branch. There was a deafening crack and I leapt downwards, sinking my claws into a branch further down. It shook as I landed, but it held me. The ShadowClan warriors yowled with alarm and looked up, but their tiny brains never thought to move out of the way. Typical ShadowClan. They were always the dumbest Clan, even worse than the pitiful ThunderClan fools. 

The branch plummeted down towards the cats. I heard a few yowls of pain, and then there was silence. Even the birds had stopped chirping and the wind had chosen to stop blowing the leaves on the trees. I was unsure whether it had killed any of them or if they were just unconscious.

"Well," I muttered to myself. "Blackstar made it way too easy for me to take out his second battle patrol. Let the real fun begin."

I carefully maneuvered my way downwards, leaping to the ground. I trembled for a few moments. I tried not to show it, but I had never liked trees.

I slunk to the camp entrance and arrived just in time to see Blossomstar leap at Blackstar. 

"And what is StarClan going to do about this?" I sneered.

Blossomfall POV

My cats charged towards the ShadowClan patrol. Snarling furiously, warriors hurled themselves at each other. It looked as if we outnumbered them, so I remained unconcerned. 

Blackstar hit the ground after I crashed into him and I was about to plant a paw on his chest, but he heaved himself upward and threw me off. I instantly scrambled to my feet and braced myself for his attack.

Blackstar glared at me. "SHADOWCLAN, ATTACK!"

I assumed he had another patrol waiting nearby. Blackstar had this look on his face, as if he'd already won, and his eyes were focused on the camp entrance. I turned my head and looked, watching to see when the warriors burst into camp.

Nothing happened. The look on his face was priceless. Confusion was written in his gaze. "Attack?" he said, more uncertainly this time.

Shooting one last look of loathing at me, he whipped around and raced through the thorn tunnel. The ShadowClan cats followed his example, fleeing out into the forest.

What just happened?

A/N: Haha, Blackstar's reaction... XD
