(No elders)

I felt a warrior slam into my flank, knocking the breath out of me. I gasped, and rolled back to my paws. I had only been an apprentice for 2 moons now, I wasn’t very experienced on fighting warriors. I let my hackles raise and looked at the enemy cat. He had a matted pelt with all sorts of grays and browns.

“Darkface.” I hissed, narrowing my eyes.

I glanced again at his pelt, noticing a slash though a silver patch in his fur. I remembered the fur in my fathers Claws, and my eyes widened.

“You...” I sheathed my claws. “You monster!”

I leapt at him, slashing down his nose. I heard the blood pumping in my ears instead of my sister, now realizing he attacked our father. He took a swipe at me, and threw me off, hissing. My vision blurred for a second as I slammed into the ground. He took a huge paw and pinned me to the grass.

“I can beat a weak apprentice like you” he coughed out something like a laugh.

I was stuck, glancing up at him, completely ignoring the scratch on my head. Suddenly a weight was lifted off me. I jumped to my paws, looking for him.

“HANDS OFF MY SISTER OR YOUR CROWFOOD!” Ivypaw yowled, putting a nick into his ear.

He spat with rage, and tried to nip her, but she dodged, and used my paw-sweeping trick. He got the breath knocked out of him, slamming into the dirt.

“YOU PEICE OF—“ he yowled, cut off by having to take a breath.

My sister ran towards me, giving me a hasty lick on my scratch. I dug my nails into the ground, bracing myself for the attack as the warrior got up.

“When did EmberClan get remotely smart?” He growled.

“When did Cinderclan loose their intelligence?” I retorted, lashing my tail.

“Your going to regret that” he raced towards us, claws out.

He knocked me down, his claws cutting my chest. Ivypaw leaped at him, but he swung his paw and knocked her down. She landed on her paw awkwardly. He took his huge paw and swiped my head. My vision went blurry, and even when I blinked, it didn’t help too much. I was helpless, and my sister was hurt. Suddenly I heard a familiar yowl.

“HEY! PAWS OFF!”

It was Dottednose! It startled Darkface so much, his claws came out further, making me yowl. He jumped off of me, now facing my loyal Mentor. I got to my paws, only to be struck with a pain in my head. I crumpled back to my paws. I could barely see Fawnpelt and Smallpaw racing into view before my vision went black.

I woke up in the Medicine Cats den, laying on some moss. I tried to get to my paws, but I felt a paw push me back down.

“Mistypaw, your fathers fine, so is your sister, you should worry about you right now.” Silverbell said.

I sighed, my vision still a bit blurry. “What happened?” I mewed.

She sat down next to me, pushing some berries towards me.

“You got attacked by Darkface, and he knocked you out with his paw.” She answered simply.

I sniffed the berries, and took a mouthful. They were bitter but they helped my head a bit. I looked over as Mosspaw was leading my sister back into the den. she was limping, and she had something on her paw.

“Oh Mosspaw! You found her! Come here Ivypaw.” She led my sister to me.

“Your awake!” She purred. “How’s your head?”

I realized that my vision was better too, so I gave her a purr as well.

“Much better!”

My sister gave me a lick on my head. “Featherstar is making Smallpaw a warrior!”

I felt oddly jealous. But I shook the feeling away. You’ll get your turn. Just be happy for him!

“Well it was his time huh? He’s been an apprentice for at least 10 moons now.” I felt my eyes close a bit.

Silverbell shoved my sister back to her moss patch.

“Sleep! You both need rest.” She said, walking over to Mosspaw, telling her to fetch feverfew for my headache.

I was falling in and out of sleep when I saw Finchpaw walking in.

“Finchpaw?” I mewed sleepily.

He pads over to me and sits down.

“Hey! I finally got away from Dirtpaws... my sister was asleep so I thought I’d find you.” He whispered.

I stretched and got up.

“My heads feeling better now. Wanna go take a walk?” I licked his ear

He purred a response “sure!”

We walked out of the den, into the setting sun’s light. Our pawsteps synchronized, we walked out of the EmberClan entrance, and headed to see the sunset in silent agreement. I felt kind of guilty that I didn’t tell Silverbell, but the feeling faded when Clumsyfoot nodded at us as we left. We went to a rock hanging over the land below, and sat to watch the sun. His tail touched mine and I felt an odd prickly feeling on my fur. Yet not unpleasant. Soon moonlight washed over us, and we got up to head home. My fur was brushing against his and I was trying to remember a time where the sunset ended so perfectly...

Long chapter this time~! Hope you enjoyed the
