Chapter 28

"Sparklepelt." said Wintertail in panic. Pucleclaw turned around quickly and saw Wintertail. "Oh, the great Wintertail. Bow down to your new leader, Puckleglory." spat Puckleclaw. "What?" hissed Wintertail with fury in her eyes. "There is only one leader. And she is right next to me." But Puckleclaw's gaze fell upon Frostglory. "Traitor." hissed Frostglory angrily. "Shallowpool?" meowed Dotfur stepping toward the sleek cat. "Mother, why are you doing this?" said Dotfur. Indeed, Dotfur's mother was Shallowpool and it broke her heart to see that she had turned evil. Frostglory whispered something to Pebblefoot and he ran off. Demontooth, not knowing what he was doing, lunged toward Pebblefoot. Wintertail quickly flung herself toward Demontooth. Pebblefoot startled, started to run off. Then she remembered Sparklepelt and the other leaders. (The real leaders.) "Get the other leaders out," she yelled without thinking. The others seeming only now to realize that the leaders were in the corner. Also Wintertail noticed that Pineglory (QuickClan leader) was huffing his breath out unsteadily. She lunged herself toward the real leaders. The deputies, surprised, was not able to stop her, for they stood on one side of the field and the good band of cats on the other side. The battle had begun. THE BLOODBATTLE. SEE MORE IN BOOK 2.

Chapter 27

Sparklepelt vigorously shook the dizziness out of his head. "Ugh," he groaned. All of the days' events rushed through his brain. He looked around. He was in the Nursery. But where was Bellafeather and Mollywing? He tried to rush out of the den but Shallowpool was there blocking his exit. "Get out of my way," Sparklepelt hissed with rage. Didn't she have any respect for anyone but herself? "Is that a way to talk to QuickClan's leader?" she cooed. "You're QuickClan's leader?" he mewed. "Right indeed. I'm Shallowglory. We have not got our 9 lives yet, but that's only a day's wait away." Shallowglory meowed somewhat proudly. Sparklepelt shook his head. Time for a change of subject. "Where are my friends?" he asked with a hint of worry. "Oh, those little rats. They are in the Apprentice den." she hissed with too much satisfacion. "Puckleglory decided all places would go down. So apprentices would be kits and so on. I was thinking of having you as an apprentice." Sparklepelt gasped in horror. "Oh. So this is all Puckleclaw-" "Puckleglory," she corrected. He gasped in horror, then gulped down his surprise. "Puckleglory's fault." Shallowglory nodded. That was it. Sparklepelt needed to get out of here.  He rammed Shallowpool with his head. She slid aside undamaged, but obviously surprised. Outside he saw the other deputies or leaders, whichever. They growled when they saw him. He turned around to go the other way, but Shallowglory was right there. It was no use. He was trapped. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the other leaders. The real leaders. They were trapped inside a den with a bamboo door attatched to it (how did they get the bamboo tied?). He ripped the door that was holding them in. All of the leaders leaped up at the same time. Then Sparklepelt led the leaders out together. Then Puckleglory suddenly jumped in front of them. They turned back, but they were surronded.The bushes started to rustle, and out came Wintertail and the others!!! But Sparklepelt's joy soon faded as he realized that it was no use because they had ready started what they would soon call the BloodBattle . . .

Chapter 26

            Okay forget all the other characters. Here are the ones you must remember: Wintertail, Frostglory, Pebblefoot, Dusktail, Dotfur, Mollywing, Bellafeather, Puckleclaw,Cheetahswift and all the other deputies. So now let's join our journey with Sparklepelt. Sparklepelt's friends, Bellafeather and Mollywing, seemed to hear the sounds of his low growls. As soon as they emerged from the bushes, the other clan deputies came out of the bushes. Demontooth came into full view then. Sparklepelt could now see that RockClans' deputy was no bigger than himself. He had dark brown fur with gashes of light brown. Demontooth had many battle scars, for he had been RockClans deputy for 6 years and he was getting old and impatient for RockClan's current leader to retire. Second came Mutheart. Mutheart was a lean gray cat. Some stories told of him being half mut. Mutheart had only recently became NightClan's deputy, because the clan was unsure if they should trust him or not. Last but not least was Shallowpool. Shallowpool was a gorgeus female cat. While the cats were staring at awe at her she would normally quickly strike. Being a QuickClan a cat, she was incredibly fast. Being the oldest and most skilled deputy she was really unbeatable. The deputies came closer and closer to the three cats. the next thing Sparklepelt knew he was knocked out(If you are wondering why the deputies names don't end with claw, is becase Puckleclaw secretly allowed them to change there names if they didn't like them. And apparently all of them besides Puckleclaw didn't like their name).

Chapter 25

We must know leave our hero, Wintertail and tell you what has happened while the band of cats were gone. We will now follow the story of Sparklekit. A young male cat with a great sense of pride. Sparklekit became an apprentice at the same time of Wintertail. While he had his apprentice ceremony, Wintertail just happened to be sleeping. He also became a warrior the day after Wintertail, so know we are left with Sparklepelt. The day that the band of clan saving cats left, Puckleclaw took over due to strange disappearance of Frostglory. In the late afternoon, Sparklepelt heard a rumbling noise. She ran utside to see a giant wave crashing upon their camp. Sparklepelt braced himself for the impact. When the water finally hit him, he just started to swim. After that odd incident, the clans soon got news that a couple of cats died. Volleytail (from another clan.) and their own Safetyherb ( medicine cat apprentice)Bellawing took over. Bellawing was her very best friend aside from Mollyfeather, that is. Although his friends were girls. As many may know, girls and boys often do not work together well. All the other kits in the other clan were killed but WaveClans' kits were carried to safety. The next day the campsite caught on fire. Waveclan, because they live in holes, had a harder time escaping their dens compared to the other clans. Sparklepelt saw Puckleclaw talking to another cat. the other cat did not smell of WaveClan but it smelled like it was from RockClan. "We shall attack the clans, join up with the other clan deputies, and rule all cats in this forest.'' the other cat said. Puckleclaw nodded solemly. Sparklepelt gasped suddenly. Another cat heard him. The strange cat pounced on him. Sparklepelt threw him off into the broad sunlight of the day. It was Demontooth, Rockclan's deputy. From the bushes emerged the other clans deputies.
