This is the idea:
Specklestar looked around quickly, then kept on his way. He was a little apprehensive, but also delighted to be off by himself. With the Clan, there was always someone to follow you around, and since he was the leader, it was hard to be alone. He was glad that his injuries were healed except the one that was almost gone. Nightshade couldn't tell him to stay out right now, the weather was to nice for that. He was on patrol though, so he needed to act like he really cared about that.
His pelt flashed as he moved through the brush, easily detectable to any prey, and they would all run. Specklestar wasn't hunting though, he was patrolling. He would have been quieter if he were searching for food. The Clan didn't seriously need it. Sorrelthorn and Greenpaw had come back with a bit of prey, so that was nice. Being off by himself was almost new. That was the trouble with being leader, no one wanted you out. In the end, he had just snuck out, even though someone would have seen him leave, the didn't follow him out, which was nice.
Stopping at the MireClan border, he looked around, sniffing the area. The scents of MireClan and ThornClan were both strong right there, but was there something else? It wasn't prey, at least he didn't think it was. Specklestar hadn't smelled something like that before. Could there be rival cats about? His ears were open, listening for anything that might be about.

She stood there, her light orange fur bristling with excitement. It was time to attack. She crouched, then leaped, followed by about ten other cats. Yes. It was time. Time for her to become leader of ThornClan.
She would tell them that MireClan had attacked Specklestar as he patrolled their border, and that she and her friends had tried to chase them off, but there had been too many and they had been chased off. Accordingly, eight of her followers had rolled in MireClan scent marks and then rolled in mud to make sure her story would add up. The cats would be sad, and scared of an attack by MireClan, so they would let her and her followers stay in the camp for a while. Only the two that had not rolled in scent marks and mud would stay with her in the camp that day. She would tell ThornClan that she had been traveling with a group of friends, but the others were about a day's travel behind her. And then, the next day, after washing off, the eight cats would show up. It was a perfect plan.
They surrounded Specklestar and immediately attacked, not waiting for the element of surprise to wear off.

Specklestar leaped up, but he was surrounded. Now he wished he hadn't gone out, or had taken someone with him, to head back to camp and get help, at least. There was no way for him to get out. The worst part was that these cats were rogues. Actually, that was probably a good thing too. At least that meant the Clans weren't attacking, but rogues were even more dangerous. A growl rose in his throat, but he knew he couldn't fight them all. There were just to many of them. "Who are you?" he spat, not intentionally at any of them.

Not a cat made a move; then one swiped at Specklestar and suddenly they were all over him, clawing and biting. They weren't very skilled fighters, and at least one got clawed or bit pretty good, but fighting against that many cats... not even the leader of ThornClan could do it. They held him down, and one of them snarled at him, "We've got you beat. Yeah, and we're going to beat ThornClan like that, too, and then the rest of the clans..." The cat that spoke was slapped lightly across the face by a she-cat, and then suddenly two cats bit down and Specklestar went limp after a short struggle.

((It's fine. Same thing would have happened anyway.))
Specklestar tried to fight them, but they were all over him. Soon they had him held down, and he could feel the new ones, and he was pretty sure that scar on his leg that was nearly healed had started bleeding again. Even worse than the pain of defeat and injury was what they planned to do. They were going to take over ThornClan, weren't they? Then they could take over the rest of the Clans. Surely ThornClan couldn't believe them? He didn't have time to think about anything else before his mind was wiped clean.
((So they know about the nine lives thing or what?))

((No, they do not know about the nine lives
Can you ask noleah to get on and check her messages?))
As planned earlier, the group of cats split up, with only the she-cat and two of her followers going towards the ThornClan camp, and all the rest running deeper into MireClan territory before finding their way into the outlands and traveling far before finding a place to rest.
The three cats left behind ventured deeper into ThornClan's territory, looking for their camp. They had to go slow, because the bite marks and claw marks slowed them down. But hopefully a patrol would find them before much longer.

((It's gonna be so funny when they see Specklestar again. I imagine they'll make it sound like MireClan completely killed it, since they don't know. They're so evil. ;D))
Specklestar's ear twitched, and his eyes slowly opened. He'd just had a visit from StarClan telling him he had lost a life. That was always a way to cheer you up, wasn't it? "Hello, you just died, time to go back and serve your Clan some more!" Yep, that motivated him. No, it didn't, but he needed to get up anyway. His Clan needed him. He wavered as he got up. Did those rogues know he had nine lives? They way they had talked, he expected them to stay around until they had compeltely killed him, or he would just come back. The only thing left, then, was that they didn't know. They thought he was dead. What good did that do him? They had taken over ThornClan, and would kill him if he went back. Even the Clan might not be able to protect him then. He might run into them on the way.
There was nothing else to do for it, then. He needed to go to another Clan. There was only one Clan for him to visit, to tell his troubles too: MireClan. It hurt Specklestar to ask help from another Clan, but he would die again if he stayed here. He started walking towards the border until he reached it, then he stood there stubbornly, hoping some patrol would run into him and descent upon him. He hoped they would listen to him before they attacked, he wasn't up to anything.
((Noleah was sort of banned from the computer. I could cheat and do it for her, but that's cheating.))

((Yeah XD // No, I'll just pretend that Duststar went out hunting or something))
((Skip to ThornClan camp))
The she-cat, whose name happened to be Reflex and who also happened to be the leader of the group, dashed into the middle of ThornClan's camp, wildly gazing about her with green-brown eyes. "Attack! Attack! Attack! Danger!" She yowled to the sky, then collapsed to the ground along with her two followers, trembling. Some of the trembling was real -- this was a very dangerous thing to do, walk right into a camp of enemy cats like this, especially after she'd killed their leader. But it had to be done. It was all part of her plot for this place. The clans territory was really very nice, much nicer than the outlands surrounding it, and she would own it one day.

Sorrelthorn's head went straight up when he heard the word attack. What had happened? He looked around camp, hoping to see Specklestar there to meet this newcomer. Where was he? Sorrelthorn didn't even know if he was in camp. What if something happened to him? He needed to ask this stranger. His first instinct was to protect his Clan and attack her, but he needed to know as well. The rest of the Clan was there, and they could attack if there was a threat. That decision made, he starting walking towards the cat, then hesitated. Specklestar wasn't there, but maybe Blizzardstorm or a senior warrior should be talking to her. Then again, they all deserved to know what might be happening. Still, he didn't really feel like asking her himself.
