Rainpath gasped as northstorm tore open her belly, pain searing through her. She managed to wriggle out one fore leg while he clawed her, and she swiftly raked her claws across the nearest thing to her, his chest. He reared back and rainpath saw her chance to escape before he slamed back down on the empty ground. Northstorm was bigger than her, and a whole lot stonger, but she was more lithe and swift. she quickly rolled away from him and hopped back on her feet, staggering a little. Her vision became a bit blurry, but she quickly blinked it away. Blood seeped heavily from the wounds on her belly, and she began to feel light headed, like she was about to faint. But she tried her best to ignore it all, to stand tall against her attackers, though she knew the end would come soon. She was rapidly losing blood and there was no doubt they would finish her off. Before she could give in to death, she suddenly noticed featherleaf staring at them with wide eyes. That's why northstorm reared up, she thought to her self. She stared at her with drowsy eyes, her strength depleting quickly. "Featherleaf?"

Swiftheart felt a lump rise up in his throat, "Rainpath! No!" He turned around to see what Rainpath was looking at, Featherleaf! Swiftheart looked at the herbs Shadowpaw had gotten for him and he paced as much cobwebs and goldenrod poultice as were necessary for Questpaw, now it was just a matter of whether she had the strength to go on. He looked at Questpaw and Shadowpaw and said to them "I need to help Rainpath, Shadowpaw"he lowered his voice to a whisper"Featherleaf is behind us, you need to get Questpaw to your camp, she'll be safe there." He turned toward where Rainpath and Northstorm were, no way Northstorm would easily let him treat Rainpath, but he had to try, he ran as fast as his legs could carry him he stood protectively in front of her, hissing angrily.

Rainpath stared drowsily at swiftheart as he surged towards her, stopping in front of her to turn and hiss threateningly at northstorm and stoneheart. She stared in alarm at him; no doubt he wanted to treat her, but their opponents would attack him before he even got the chance to pick up his herbs. Her heart sank as she realized what was worse; if they took their attention from her entirely and mauled swiftheart instead. She couldn't risk the life of storm clan's medicine cat. "Swiftheart, no," she mewed weakly, staggering. "I'm, I'm fine." But they both knew that was a lie, since her blood was flowing so quickly from her ripped belly a pool of red had begun to form around them.

Shadowpaw's fur stood on end as he realized who everyone was staring at, his mentor had finally come! But he didn't want her to be hurt... "Featherleaf! Help me! Questpaw is hurt, we need to get far away from here." He put his weight against Questpaw and attempted to push her up on to her paws, "Cmon! We need to get you back to camp, other warriors will help us." Shadowpaw turned and looked at the herbs that were stolen, wondering if he could steal them back...

Featherleaf blinked as she heard her name. She looked to her apprentice. There layed questpaw, still alive and bleeding. Northstorm did this, of course he did. Her claws slid out, after trying so hard to think that her brother could change, instead he has gotten worse. If her brother wanted her to snap, she would. But, Questpaw needs help, then again the StormClan warrior and medicine cat needed it to.... She looked into her apprentice's eyes, worry shown in.
Questpaw put all her strenght in to getting up and putting her weight on Shadowpaw's. She looked at the warrior. She looked torn. Helping apprentice's or helping the StormClan cats from her brother. Questpaw turned her head, painfully to Shadowpaw, he was staring at the catnip. She knew him to well to know what he was thinking. "Don't even try." was all she said.
Northstorm smirked with satisfaction, maybe he'll get his prey after all, if he kills them, clear all proof that he was here then FeatherClan wouldn't have any wittnesses to say who did it, and he'll be clear of subspicous eyes. He lept at Swiftheart, raking his claws into his forehead.

Stoneheart flinched when she heard Featherleaf's name. She took a quick moment to look around and get a better overlook of the situation, but when she noticed the look on Northstorms face, she knew exactly where her focus should be. A weakened warrior and a crippled medicine cat shouldn't be much of a challenge between the two of them. Just as he lept at Swiftheart, she raced around him, aiming her claws at Rainpath. "Featherclan loving, treacherous kittypet!" she growled, aiming hit after hit at Rainpaths throat and face.

Swiftheart claws unsheathed started clawing at Northstorm shouting "Traitors, you'll never get away with this!" he hissed. Firesoul saw what was happening and new she had to help her brother but how? Eureka! She stood beside him and whispered into Northstorm's ear, "You'll never get away with it, he knows you killed me." and other things of that nature she didn't care that this tom might've once cared about her, he as trying to kill her brother and had successfully killed her nothing else mattered.

Rainpath ducked, barely missing getting swiped across her throat. She crouched low hissing with fury even though she was sure she'd drop dead any minute now from blood loss. "Treachorous?!" She hissed in out rage, "Am I the one who attacked our medicine cat? Am I the one who attempted to break the warrior code by trying to kill some one unprovoked?" She lunged forward trying to swipe at her neck, but she was too slow, to weak in her wounded state to be able to hit her. She pulled back, but she didn't stand down. She had to keep fighting until the end; which didn't seem to far away. She crouched and growled defensively.

Stoneheart growled and continued the assualt, more fiercely than before, not giving Rainpath a moment to rest or think. "The code is made for the weak," she hissed, lashing out a paw aimed at Rainpath's eyes. "We have no need for other clans! And we have no need for those who care for them either!" She lept forward with paws outstretched, attemting to get a grip around Rainpath's neck for the killing bite.

Shadowpaw's tail fur was just about as fluffed out as it could possibly be, as he quietly urged Questpaw to start moving towards the Featherclan camp. The wound on his side was becoming painful, blood was starting to seep out with each step that he made. He was deathly afraid that Featherleaf was going to be outnumbered by those blood-thirsty warriors, perhaps his mother had been right when she told him about the fearsome Stormclan warriors gobbling up any kit or apprentice that dared to stray in their path. He bowed his head for a moment while walking and prayed that Starclan would keep Featherleaf safe until another warrior could help.
