Seastar slowly padded outside the her den.
She slowly lifted her bowed head to the moon-- revealing her eyes to be twinkling with sadness: but then her head was lowered once more and she was off.
Gazing around, she quickly noticed Emberpaw on guard duty. The young apprentice's ear twitched and her tail waved once as she stared into the brush ahead-- but she did not see Seastar as she slipped out through the back of the camp walls.
After several minutes of walking, her paws padding slowly over the earth, Seastar had passed the faint borderline of HailClan, past the unrecknoizable line fo FernClan, and finally into the dark barren land of crued forest.
DeathClan's territory.

Scarheart slunk out of her den, emerging from the shadows just in front of the younger leader. Pausing, her black pelt so blended in with the shadows it made her invisible, she stared once into the eyes of her dreaded enemy.
Then, she revealed herself in a flurry.
Sadly, her enemy did not flinch. Narrowing her amber eyes, Scarheart wrapped her black and scarlet tail around her paws neatly. Of course, she still showed her long, HailClan claws.
Scarheart bore her teeth, "What do you want?"

Scarheart had tried to intimidate her. She had tried to scare her.
But Seastar would die with dignity. She would not cry out. She would nto show fear. She would not beg.
"I want a deal."

This make Scarheart chuckle. Deals are to be made with honorable cats. Any DeathClan deal would not be kept. But still...
Curiosity overcame her better self. "A deal?"

She stared steadily back with icy blue eyes. "Do whatever you want. Just stay away from my clan, my clanmates, my people. Stay away and never bother us again."

Scarheart grinned. "You do realize that... it wouldn't be 'stay away from us'? It would be stay away from them."

Seastar paused. She had known what Scarheart would say. But...
"I know." She pawed the coarse groudn with her claws feverisly. "Just don't hurt them. Don't hurt them ever again!"
The silver she-cat stared up at Scarheart, the bigger cat smiled back.
All right. You want me, Scarheart? You'll get me. But you're not going to get me without a fight!
The leader snarled, and unsheathed her claws.

Scarheart chuckled, and turned partially away. "You know how to make me happy, Seastar."
And with a blur of speed, she launched herself at the young leader. "ALWAYS HAVE!"
The two leaders collided with a sickening thud and instantly, they became one blurry mass of screeching and rolling fur. She could hear her warriors emerging from their dens with cries of delight and fury, but Scarheart ignored them-- instead sinking her claws deep into Seastar's spine as the leader flew past her.

The younger leader let out a cry of pain, whihc quickly turned into a long hiss of rage. She rolled and crashed into Scarheart-- setting her off balence, and the two leaders were once again on fair terms, equally matched.

"Stay back!" Scarheart screamed, as rouges began to press close. "She's mine!" Scarheart dissepeared into the shadows in a whirl of movement and began to stalk the leader from all sides.
She could see Seastar's ears twitching like crazy-- prone to every sound and sight, every ripple in the air. A few time she even lashed out, once ripping out a clump of Scarheart's fur.
Scarheart laughed deeply as Seastar continued to whirl around frantically swipping out as Scarheart came into view and gone again. "What's the matter? Can't see me?" She stepped out fully into view, mocking the other cat with bared teeth.
Seastar gritted her teeth. "You arn't the only one with clan skills!"
And she was gone.
Scarheart blinked to hide her suprise. She whirled around at her rouges, "Where'd she g--!"
All the breath was slammed out of her as the light-weight Seastar slammed into her form above. StormClan! She had forgotten their ability to leap!
She struggled as she felt Seastar's claws sinking deep, and deeper into her throat. She began to choke and a blackness began to seep around her vision.
Seastar.. w-was going to win..! O-h, S-starClan, she d-didn't want to die!
Could she have won?
Was it really true?
Had good defeated evil at last?
Suddenly the pressure vanished. Scarheart rolled gasping in huge breaths of air. She whirled around to see Seastar standing tall-- for once matching her height as Scarheart seemed ten times smaller. The other leader cocked her head at Scarheart.

"I feel sorry for you." The comment came quietly. Seastar cocked her head to the other side, looking calmly at the enemy she had once so greatly hated. Hated with the bottom of her heart. She had once had Scarheart's life in her paws... and she had given it back.
Scarheart instantly was enraged. And confused. "What?!"
"I feel sorry for you. You have no home, no real family, no kits, no mate."
"DeathClan is my home!" Scarheart snarled, thumping up to Seastar and shoving her face

*She lunges on her and digs her claws into her neck, slashes of her muzzle and finally bites off her tail*

*Blood whelled from every part of her body, forming a small pool of blood, but she hangs on a moment longer, looking into Scarheart's eyes and a feeling of pity sparks up inside* "I'm sorry..." *She sighd and slowly closes her eyes and her breathing slows to a stop. In the sky a faint outline of a cat glows, then if you looked you could see it run, higher and higer to join cats looking happier than it ever had. The image fades... there will be a new star in the sky tonight*

She stares at her body for a long time "I know your still alive. Go crawl back to your clan and say your final goodbyes... hurry." *But it was too late. She almost felt bad for Seastar*

*Long after Scarheart had left, and Seastar's body had grown cold, Emberlight emerged, saw the body, and quietly padded up to it*
"Seastar?"
*She knew that Seastar was already gone... but she went on talking though, hoping that Seastar's spirit was listening* "Runningbrook knew, you know. She was troubled for a long time then all of a sudden she said out loud. 'Seastar is Dieing'. We looked everywhere, but we didn't find you in time. I'm sorry." *She sticks her nose into Seastar's fur, breathing in the familer scent of her old mentor. She grabbed Seastar's body by the scruff and pulled her all the way back to Stormclan*
//I'm sorry...//
