Chapter description[]
- Stripestar sits in a tree, watching ants flow around his claw, admiring their worry-free lives compared to his. He reflects on the distance between himself and his mate, reluctantly admitting to himself that StormClan's camp in the marshes is a dreadful place. He will not tell Galestar, however, as he fears returning to the mountains because of his dream of a gull, a mountain, and a fish with legs. Stripestar is pulled from his thoughts by the sound of yowling cats, and he rushes to camp to find it being ravaged by a strange, huge, intimidating stoat-like creature. Galestar snaps him out of his daze, asking him if he is with her in driving it out, and he agrees. After ordering Tinyclaw to gather every cat together, Stripestar joins Galestar in facing the creature.
- The pair take turns attacking the creature, with Stripestar nearly suffering a dangerous blow to the skull. When Galestar attacks, the creature manages to grab her in its claws, and Stripestar desperately attempts to defend her. The creature releases his mate, sending her to the ground, and after knocking the creature into the mud, Stripestar checks on Galestar. As they recover, they realize that the creature is now targeting Harewhisker and Mudsplash, who are still ill and too weak to defend themselves. The two leaders rush to their aid but are too late, as the creature snatches up Mudsplash by the neck. The leaders savage the beast to force it to release Mudsplash, preventing it from grabbing him again. With the creature blinded by Stripestar, he and Galestar attack viciously. They force its head down into the muddy water, holding it down until it drowns. With the battle won, StormClan gathers around Mudsplash, who is alive but badly injured.
