Heated tendrils of agony licked at Brindlestar's being, intricate patterns being interwoven into her flesh where the flames licked too closely. A terrible shriek bubbled up within the fathoms of her throat as life was stirred into her body once more, rising shrilly above the flames. Unable to withstand the legitimate searing of both her fur and flesh, the pale molly was quickly lunging upwards in an attempt to search for much needed oxygen. How long had she been... gone? There was certainly no fighting whenever they had fallen. Unable to spot Leopardstar among the profuse smoke that drifted lazily into the night air, the WindClanner lingered for several moments until the conditions drove her from the flames, not even the newly restored life within her body able to take away the terrible pain as she leaped through the curtain of fire.

Plumes of smoke drifted after her burned flesh and fur as Brindlestar lunged towards the closest available enemy within her sight.

Brindlestar used Run-and-Tackle, Dealing -15 in Damage & Costing -10 in Stamina.

Everything happened so fast. The lightning strike, the flames raging beneath the Great Rock, Lichenmask’s attack against Leopardstar, Brindlestar falling off in a failed attempt to catch the ThunderClan leader… Scorchfang’s fur stood on end with absolute terror. He needed to get down before the flames surrounded him, Jaystar, and Tinystar. With a quick nod to the RiverClan and SkyClan leaders, silently wishing them well during the battle, the ShadowClan leader leaped down and began scanning the battlefield, trying to seek out any of his own Clanmates through the chaos. Please, oh, please, let my friends and family be safe out there…

---

Stalking through the chaotic flames and fur flying through the crimson light of the eclipse, Shade began seeking out his first prey of the battle. He decided to grace another one of his former Clanmates with his presence, and who better than--

The rogue let out a harsh yowl of surprise as a cat suddenly attacked him from the side. He became very dizzy as his opponent shook him violently by the scruff, and he couldn’t even tell who his attacker was. Het let out a fierce screech of frustrated rage and pain.

---

Thank StarClan -- no, thank whatever Sparkpaw was there to literally yank Orchidpaw back into reality. The sudden bolt of lightning and raging flames had really given him quite a fright, and he had been unable to do anything more than just stand and stare, even as the flames tried to lick at his muzzle, the heat singing his whiskers.

Shaking his head with a growl, he forced himself to focus on what was happening in front of him. He watched as Sparkpaw launched herself at a rogue he didn’t recognize, and he snarled as he leaped to his best friend’s side, ready to help her drive this traitorous cat away. He leaped on Shag’s belly once he fell on his back after Sparkpaw’s tackle and began raking his hind claws down his underbelly. ”Get ready to have a bad time, you dirty rogue!”

Orchidpaw used Belly Rake on Shag, dealing 7 damage and costing 10 stamina.

Snowdrop let out a caterwaul of rage and pain as she was suddenly attacked by one of her former Clanmates. She squeaked and struggled to endure the pain as Swoopnose tore into her belly -- where her precious unborn kits were held. Panic for their safety turning into pure lividity, the queen twisted out from underneath her opponent and panted, but didn’t allow herself a moment to rest. With a screech, she lashed out her claws and slashed them across Swoopnose’s muzzle. ”Don’t you dare harm my kits, you vicious fox-hearted rat!”

Snowdrop used Rear-Up to Slash on Swoopnose, dealing 17 damage and costing 15 stamina.

Swoopnose

Spiderfur's pelt stood on-end, and it was only half due to the sudden strike of lightning. She watched in horror as Leopardstar received a fatal blow and Brindlestar being dragged down into the hungry flames below. The battle broke out, fur and blood flying like a swarm of flies across the clearing. She had to act fast, and fast she did. Her eyes found her former Clanmate, Rockjaw, and felt a wave of confusing emotion overtake her. She tucked and twisted between the brawling cats before leaping at the tom with an odd expression between pain and fury on her face, joining the white RiverClan tom against him.

Spiderfur used Jumping Strike on Rockjaw, dealing 15 damage and using 20 stamina.

Firflower found herself surrounded by flailing limbs and outstretched claws, panic threatening to take hold, she rushed towards a white she-cat who vaguely smelled of ThunderClan, already fighting one of her Clanmates. She moved to aid the tom, though something was odd about this Exile. She couldn’t quite put her paw on it.

Firflower used Rear-up-to-Slash on Snowdrop, dealing 11 damage and using 15 stamina.

Stonepaw was all too ready to fight, but found himself pinned by a WindClan warrior. The large tom writhed and snarled beneath Barleytuft’s grasp, craning his neck to get a good look at his attacker. He’d be finished soon enough, though.

Stonepaw is pinned for 1 more turn.

It happened so fast, that Leopardstar's brain barely had time to register the fact that he was bleeding out before his consciousness failed and everything went black.

He was awoken by the most horrible sensation he had ever felt in his life, and let out an agonizing yowl as strength began to return to his body.  Driven by pure adrenaline, he leaped to his paws - feeling the flames burn through his fur and touch his skin - before springing out of the fire behind Brindlestar, her pale brown tail vanishing into the fray.  He was still a bit disoriented, the stench of burnt fur wafted around him, but he knew he could fight.  He had just given up a life, but the inferno had seemed to burn away the last of his fear.

With a fearsome cry, he caught sight of young Bearpaw battling with one of the Exiles, and set off at a run, greeting them with a flurry of claw strikes to the face.

Leopardstar used Upright Front Paws on Darkpaw, dealing 17 damage and costing 20 stamina

Leopardstar:

Barleytuft let out a hiss of satisfaction at the feel of his opponents fur beneath his claws; however much the other tom struggled, the WindClan warrior knew that he had his opponent in an iron grip and continued to claw at the other cat's pelt.

Reemerging from the curtain of smoke with an unnatural speed, Lichenmask was quick to lunge at Jaystar, sweeping the larger tom from his paws- rendering him sprawled atop the Great Rock. "You should've accepted my words, my offer! May this night forever haunt you, Jaystar- I should like to see you suffer for what you've caused." Lunging so that he caught a mouthful of his former Leader's thick nape fur, the dark Exile was unwilling to reprieve his punishing hold.

Lichenmask used Teeth Grip, Dealing -13 in Damage & Costing -20 in Stamina.
Jaystar is pinned for 3 TURNS, with damage inflicted each turn!

Fallowpaw snarled as the leader of WindClan tackled her at full force. Breathing quickly, she untangled herself from Brindlestar's attack. She reared up on her hind legs, lashing out at her opponent's muzzle with rage.


Fallowpaw used Upright Front Paws on Brindlestar, dealing 16 damage and costing 20 stamina.

Brindlestar

Fallowpaw

Brindlestar, effectively riled from an intoxicating mixture of agony and adrenaline, merely snarled at Fallowpaw's movements, "There are no stars to grieve what little of you I shall leave behind! You should've accepted the mercy of exile when you still had the chance." Diving beneath the Exile's belly, she was quick to rip cruelly at the other molly's exposed, vulnerable flesh.

Brindlestar used Belly Rake, Dealing -20 in Damage & Costing -10 in Stamina.

Gingerstripe clawed at the downed rogue before him, opening up bloody scratches among a multitude of other scars. Now that he has the advantage, he had to weaken his opponent as much as possible. Though he hated fighting, this fox-heart deserved no mercy. "No words, huh?" he taunted, a rare snarl crossing his face. "Did I surprise you that badly again, Shade? I thought you'd at least remember someone who best you before."

Gingerstripe used Upright Front Paws, dealing 15 damage and costing 20 stamina. Shade is pinned for one more turn.

Gingerstripe:
80/80 HP
195/240 SP

Shade:
38/60 HP
200/200 SP

That voice. That cursed voice! Now Shade recognized his attacker. Bearing through the slashes of Gingerstripe's claws with grunts and growls, he glared furiously up at the ginger tom. "You! You ruined my perfect killing streak, dung-face, when you attacked me that day!" His snarl suddenly turned into a wicked grin. "You knew that WindClan molly I killed, didn't you, Gingerstripe? That's why you tried to save her. Tell me, how does it feel knowing you couldn't save your precious friend from me? How does it feel knowing you didn't have what it took to kill me when you had the chance? You still don't! Attack me all you like, but I know you won't kill me!"

Jaysong yowled as her own father bit deep into her tail, rendering her unable to move as tears welled. This wasn't what she wanted. She wanted to get her revenge, not face off against her father... He was pure! Couldn't he be spared? "D-Dad!" Her pained gaze met his when she turned to face him, blood spilling from the puncture marks left by his teeth.

Jaysong is Stunned.

Immediately, Dustcloud's gears started turning. She'd go for those who appeared to be struggling the most, those who needed her help in the moment. Her eyes quickly met the nasty sight of Birdflight, stuck in place by one of Lichenmask's Exiles. Legs aching already, she leaped into action. Stopping just short of the smaller cat, she reared up on her hind paws, leaving deep wounds when she came back don, careful not to harm Birdflight in the process.

Dustcloud used Rear-Up to Slash, dealing -17 HP and using -15 SP.

Dustcloud:

ooc: ohhhh here we go

There was a blinding light and a crack of thunder. Once the pale deputy's vision cleared, fighting had begun. There were yowls left and right as he scanned the clearing briefly. The black pelt of Crowfur could be seen through the chaos, and he was fighting a cat he vaguely recognized. She was once Shadowclan, that's all he knew. Like he had said to few of his clanmates before, he hadn't known many other cats. He raced towards the battle as fast as his paws would take him. He suddenly remembered the cat's name. Brushgaze. He quickly struck at her with his front paws before sparing a glance at the stunned Crowfur.

Froststone used "Front Paws Strike" on Brushgaze, dealing 15 damage and costing 25 stamina.

Froststone:
HP: 100
SP: 255

Brushgaze:
HP: 85

Aspenstrike flung himself into battle upon hearing the yowls and cries of his clanmates. He watched Firepaw throw himself at a large rogue, clawing her. He'd help the apprentice before he got himself killed on his own. Watching his adopted son and brother run off in different directions, he ran at the molly attacking Firepaw. Before she knew what was happening, he slid underneath her and clawed at her belly.

Aspenstrike used "Half-Turn Belly Rake" dealing 11 damage and using 20 stamina.

Icepaw started off towards his biological father as soon as he saw running. A loud yowl came from the apprentice, who ran and tackled his father. Hillfire stood no chance against the clans. "Hillfire! You abandoned Flurryshine, you abandoned me! I'm your son!" His claws dug in as deep as he could make them go before backing away a short distance. For a moment he saw a flash of brown pelt near his friend, Firepaw. His father was fighting now as well.

Icepaw used "Run and Tackle" dealing 6(+3) damage and using 10 stamina.

Icepaw:
HP: 20
SP: 70

Hillfire:

The tan fur of Lionpaw was only a blur once the lightning struck. He leapt onto a battle scarred rogue, knocking her down. He looked into her eyes, yowling "This is the day you die you rogue!"

(The original post: AKA the one time Cays pulled legit one liners only for Auto-correct to muck it up) :

The sight of each leader joining the young tom was unnerving. The delusional miscreant had already caused so much trouble. He watched as they leapt up, listened in silence as they spoke. Ready to come and interfere if needed. His clan was close by... his mate closer. He spared a moment to glance towards Dustcloud, eyes softening towards her. What if she was hurt? It was as though a thorn was shoved into his chest. Injuries were part of the warrior life... but if she died.

He didn't dwell on that thought. Fortunately, he didn't have to. Sounds rose from where the leaders and the tom were. His ears flicked in unease as he turned to look towards high-rock, only to see white. A shining, bristling and loud strike of white that made the earth shiver where it touched. A new scent entered the clearing, one that Marshstorm could tell was smoke. Red flames licked hungrily at the ground, but that didn't have Marshstorm's attention. It was the sight of Leopardstar.

The golden tom, held fast by the WindClan leader, who seemed desperate to pull him up... his jaws refused to work. His mind blanked out. For a single moment, everything seemed to still itself. That was blood. Once the body of Leopardstar began to fall, the brown tabby could nearly see the ghosts. Cats he once knew, now among StarClan, but it was too soon. Leopardstar could not lose a life. Not now. Not so soon. Finally, his jaws parted. A yowl of disbelief turned into rage as his mind caught up to the action.

His strides tore up chunks of earth with his claws as he wasted no time. He could see the sandy fur of Pricklepaw in the midst of fighting Beetlemask. A tom he had seen as a kit. A tom he had trusted, and now, a traitor. His body slammed into Beetlemask, claws outstreched and raked through his coat without a single bit of reserve. Without care that fur was literally flying. This battle was one the clans would not lose.


Marshstorm used run-and tackle on Beetlemask. Doing 14 + 3 damage.

Dewshine watched the scene in horror. Her pelt bristled and a soft whimper slipped through her lips as lightning came down. As two cats fell, as bodies began to push forward. Suddenly it was all too real. The fight was happening, and she had to do this. She was shaken out of her daze when orange fur dashed out from beside her, crashing into a dark coloured tom. Shade. Without though, she pelted to her mate's side. She wouldn't let him fight the murderous tom alone, not when she was aware what he was capable of. The rumours had spread and Shade's name was now a fable to bad kits.

It was the only thing Shade deserved. Her claws scored his pelt as she crashed into him. Her lips curled back in an uncharacteristic snarl as she forced back her fears of battle. The ache in her heart that told her fighting wasn't worth it breifly subsided by the display of death and the avatars of it before her, before the clans.
