Another prophecy (fanfic)

[Snakepaw]

Chapter one

The day had finally come. Fallowkit, Maplekit and Ivykit where going to become apprentices. "Let all cats of ThunderClan gather around for a ceremony!" Redstar, the leader called. The three kits followed by their mother, Flintspark, padded out. "Today, I name three kits to the rank of apprentice. Fallowkit, from now on, you shall be known as Fallowpaw. Stoneclaw, you are ready for your second apprentice, please train Fallowpaw in the ways of our code. Maplekit, you shall now be known as Maplepaw. Sorrelwave, you are ready for your first apprentice, train Maplepaw in the ways of our code. Ivykit, you shall be known as Ivypaw. Whitefeather, you are ready for an apprentice, please train Ivypaw in the ways of our code." Redstar announced. "Fallowpaw! Maplepaw! Ivypaw!" ThunderClan cheered. Fallowpaw padded up to her mentor in joy. “It will be a pleasure to work with you Fallowpaw.” Stoneclaw’s deep voice purred. The two cats touched noses in joy. Fallowpaw looked behind her, seeing Lionkit, Skunk-kit and Echokit sitting in the nursery alone. They were best of friends and always played together. Ivypaw and Maplepaw with their mentors, Sorrelwave and Whitefeather padded towards Fallowpaw and Stoneclaw. “So what are we doing first?” Fallowpaw asked, letting her black fur and white chest with spots that ended like stars flow in the wind. Whitefeather shook her head slowly. “Nothing fun. Since the drought arrived the only thing apprentices have been doing is going on water patrols. Oh StarClan please sent us rain. Let’s go. I want to get water before I let my tongue get to dry” Whitefeather meowed. The six cats got out of the stone hollow before grabbing some moss near the training hollow. “How much father is the stream?” Ivypaw asked impatiently. “All the streams have dried up. We have to go to the lake to get it. I hope that the beavers haven’t returned.” Stoneclaw chuckled. Whitefeather smiled “I remember that. Though that was when Firestar was still alive. Dovewing did a good job with her powers.” Maplepaw looked questioned. “Powers? Dovewing?” She asked. “It was a long time ago. Dovewing, Ivypool, Lionblaze, Jayfeather, Hollyleaf and Firestar are in StarClan now. Dovewing had super senses. Lionblaze was invincible in battle. Jayfeather could walk into other cats’ dreams. Ivypool was a spy for us, finding out what was happening in The Dark Forest. They were brave cats. Hollyleaf died in battle while fighting the Dark Forest. Same with Firestar. They were very brave cats.” Stoneclaw meowed. “Here we are” Sorrelwave said. The lake was very small now. “Take your moss and wet it, then you can have a drink from the lake” she continued. The three apprentices soaked their moss in the lake. Their mentors also took some moss and soaked it. I guess every cat must play their part to get water. This stinks. I really hope that the drought ends soon or I’ll rip my fur out if I have to do this every day. Fallowpaw thought before taking a large drink from the lake.

The water was refreshing, but it was warm. “Yuck! This tastes like salt!” Maplepaw spat. Ivypaw nodded, as well as Fallowpaw. “I don’t taste it” Applestripe’s voice rang beside them. The six cats turned around to see Applestripe, Sedgewhisker, Cloudyflare and Blizzardpaw. “Water patrol” Cloudyflare’s sweet, motherly voice meowed. She was one moon through expecting kits, and she would be joining Redstar’s mate, Rosethorn in the nursery soon. Sedgewhisker, Cloudyflare and Blizzardpaw nodded “we don’t taste it either” Sedgewhisker meowed. Whitefeather looked at the young cats. “Maybe it’s a sign” she meowed. “Fallowpaw, Maplepaw and Ivypaw? They are newly apprenticed Whitefeather do you have bees in your brain? Honestly, StarClan would send the message to Hollyberry than some inexperienced cats.” Stoneclaw growled. Fallowpaw was insulted. She was an apprentice! Oh, I guess he does have a point. I mean, we are just newly ranked, but that doesn’t give him the right to think we are inexperienced. This is going to be a very, long day. Oh StarClan what now? Fallowpaw thought when a large ShadowClan patrol walked towards them. “What are you doing here? This is ThunderClan territory!” Stoneclaw hissed. One ShadowClan warrior looked to Stoneclaw. “Our side of the lake has dried up! We are taking over this part of the lake weather ThunderClan likes it or not!” Her icy yellow gaze was freezing over the ten cats. The ShadowClan patrol was larger than their patrol, twelve cats at least. “Frogheart, please this doesn’t have to end this way. I know Tawnystar is trying to stay strong and prove to your Clan that being on her last life means that she must end her reign with a large mark. We are also suffering from the drought, none of our streams are flowing in our territory. We can end this peacefully by speaking to Redstar” Applestripe meowed. “How do you know Tawnystar is on her last life?” A tom hissed. “Bramblestar spoke to Hollyberry. He’s trying to protect his sister. Could you take a break, Tigerheart? Yes she is your mother, but you must trust that she was also a part of ThunderClan” Cloudyflare meowed. “ThunderClan has always been soft. Ever since Firestar allowed kittypets and loners join, you’ve been built on a foundation of Kittypets!” Another hissed. “How dare you insult ThunderClan like that? Firestar was a great leader and made good decisions! Unlike Brokenstar, Tigerstar Blackstar or Rowanstar he avoided the path of battle!” Blizzardpaw growled. Sedgewhisker shot a warning glance at her apprentice. “It’s not our fault that your medicine cat, Yellowfang had Brokenstar. And it’s also not our fault that ThunderClan had dishonorable warriors raised in their Clan!” A ShadowClan apprentice growled. “Ashpaw, this is not your place to speak, but you do have a point here.” Ashpaw’s mentor said. The ShadowClan patrol unsheathed their claws, preparing for battle.



Fallowpaw’s eyes widened in fear. She hadn’t learned any battle moves yet and it seemed ShadowClan wanted to start one. Stoneclaw showed his teeth and unsheathed his claws. “Surrender your part of the lake Stoneclaw, or this won’t end in battle” Frogheat growled. “That’s not my decision to make Frogheart. It’s Sunleaf’s and he wouldn’t surrender a whisker to you.” Stoneclaw hissed to the tortoiseshell she-cat. “ShadowClan, Attack the bird chasers!” The ShadowClan deputy, Pineclaw yowled. “Fallowpaw! Go to the camp and get more cats!” Stoneclaw ordered. Fallowpaw ran away from the patrol quickly. She wanted to help to stay and fight since now they were outnumbered by three cats now. But she kept running. For her sisters, for her mentor, for Cloudyflare and her future kits. She didn’t know her way back to camp, but she followed the scent of the Clan. The black and white cat later found the stone hollow, racing down into camp. “Fallowpaw what’s wrong?” Rosethorn and Redstar both said at once, swallowing their meal. “ShadowClan are trying to steal our side of the lake. They said that theirs has gone dry!” Fallowpaw panted. “What? Where’s the others?” Redstar ordered instantly. “Stoneclaw told me to get a patrol to help. The ShadowClan patrol has twelve cats” she meowed. “Twelve? They must be desperate.” Redstar said slowly. “Tawnystar is down to her last life and she’s suffering the worst of dehydration. It makes sense that she sent such a large patrol of cats for our share of the lake” Rosethorn meowed in return. “Swallowleaf, Quickslash, Robinpaw and Freckleface, maybe Gingermask. Go with Fallowpaw to help defend our water!” Redstar rose to his paws, red tabby pelt glowing in the sunlight. The five cats walked up and ran back to the lake with Fallowpaw. Quickslash was the fastest. Maybe his battle skills where like his name and speed. They made it to the lake. Applestripe was badly wounded. They bursted into battle like a wild fire. Fallowpaw launched herself at Ashpaw. She sank her teeth into his paw, hearing the screech that the gray tom released. Ashpaw hissed at the younger apprentice and belly raked her. Fallowpaw felt pain as blood poured out from her belly. The tom pushed her off with his hind legs. “Fallowpaw!” Flintspark, her mother cried when she saw the apprentice laying in a pool of blood at the shore of the lake. Her father, Stormcloud followed his mate towards the limp apprentice. “I’m ok mom…I’m ok” Fallowpaw gasped. She rose to her paws a few moments later, charging towards Ashpaw, ramming into his side. The gray apprentice was pushed a tail length away and a few inches off the ground. “Fallowpaw take a break! He’s the size of a warrior you won’t win!” Ivypaw cried to her sister while being attacked by Blackclaw. “I got this! I’ll be alright sister!” She called before slashing a claw over his eye. Ashpaw screeched in pain before panting with exhaustion.



Fallowpaw raked her claws over his flanks and continued before he yowled in mercy. She released the gray tabby tom apprentice before he ran away back to ShadowClan camp. Ivypaw was badly wounded. Fallowpaw growled before raking the black and white tom’s flank as he was pinned on her sister. The senior warrior was too busy keeping her sister pinned that Fallowpaw leaped into him, sinking her teeth into his shoulder. The tom finally noticed Fallowpaw before trying to get her off, put she kept a firm grip. “ShadowClan retreat! This is not a battle to be won today!” The ShadowClan deputy’s voice rang. Fallowpaw leaped off of the warrior before he ran away. Stoneclaw was still face to face with Frogheart. “Don’t think your safe right now mousebrain. We will be back!” She growled to him. “When do you think Ashpaw will be ok? My apprentice scarred him up pretty good Frogface.” He teased before walking away. “C’mon ThunderClan, we won this battle. Let’s get back to camp.” Stoneclaw meowed before leading his apprentice back to camp in silence.

Chapter two
“The battle was successful, when Fallowpaw got back on her paws, she fought harder than any cat. Maybe better than Tigerstar’s spirit, or Lionblaze himself” Stoneclaw was explaining the victorious battle to Redstar. Hollyberry was flooded with healing wounds. “Thank StarClan that it’s Green-leaf. I’d be out of supplies if it where leaf-bare” she exclaimed. Hollyberry was finally on Fallowpaw. “Where are your wounds?” The coal black tabby asked. “My stomach and flank” Fallowpaw meowed. Hollyberry inspected the wounds before letting out a sigh. “Your wounds are minor, but that doesn’t explain why you lost a lot of blood at the lake. Only StarClan knows I guess” the young medicine cat meowed before putting cobwebs on the wounds. “Be careful while hunting though Fallowpaw. We don’t want you to push it too far and open your wounds again. Could you bring these poppy seeds to Ivypaw and Blizzardpaw please?” Hollyberry asked before handing a bunch of poppy seeds wrapped in a leaf. “Let all cats gather!” Redstar called. Everyone walked out into camp and gathered. “I received news that we won the battle. I never thought that the drought would go this far. Hollyberry, have you received any signs from StarClan about an end to the drought?” He asked. Hollyberry let out a sigh before shaking her head. “Unfortunately no, Redstar. Every time there is signs of a storm, there is none” she meowed. “I’m disappointed to hear that. Anyways, on a good note, Robinpaw and Blizzardpaw, please step forward. From this day forward, Robinpaw, you showed courage and loyalty in the battle today. I name you Robinscreech. I commend him to StarClan in a warrior in his turn. Blizzardpaw, you never gave up in the battle and chased off one larger warrior. I name you Blizzardcloud. I commend her to StarClan as a warrior in her turn.” Redstar announced proudly. “Robinscreech! Blizzardcloud!” The Clan cheered. The two new warriors smiled proudly as the Clan chanted their new names. Fallowpaw walked towards her sisters. “Should we tell Hollyberry about the salt water?” She asked. Maplepaw nodded, and Ivypaw looked worried at first. “Hollyberry!” Maplepaw stood up and called. Hollyberry padded over “what’s wrong?” The coal black cat asked. “We tasted salt water in the lake, but no one else did.” Maplepaw’s calico fur fluffed up. Hollyberry looked confused. “How is that possible? Maybe StarClan have sent us an omen. We must send a patrol to the Sun-drown place next moon, so we will wait for this one” she meowed. Ivypaw stood up. “Next moon? That’s when Lionkit, Echokit and Skunk-kit become apprentices! Could they come too?” The gray patched apprentice asked. “That’s for their mentors and Stoneclaw and Redstar to decide” Hollyberry smiled at the young cats.
One moon passed, and Lionpaw, Echopaw and Skunkpaw where now apprentices. It was also the gathering tonight. “Stoneclaw, Whitefeather, Sorrelwave, Sedgewhisker, Blizzardcloud, Robinscreech, Fallowpaw, Lionpaw, Echopaw, Ivypaw, Maplepaw, Skunkpaw, Applestripe, Stormcloud, Flintspark, Orangemask and Hollyberry are going to the gathering tonight!” Redstar announced, as the sun was setting. The patrol of cats left the stone hollow and made way to the island. “I’m so excited to see what Ashpaw looks like. I really beat him up!” Fallowpaw boasted. The six apprentices where chatting more until they got on the island. Blizzardcloud went to go see Ashpaw. Fallowpaw had left two scars, one across his eye and on his flank. “Let the gathering begin!” Tawnystar announced. “ShadowClan has news to report. All of our sources of water have dried up and ThunderClan refused to share their side of the lake. RiverClan where generous enough to share their water. Also, Ashpaw has become a warrior, Ashbite.” Tawnystar announced. Redstar stepped forward. “ThunderClan never refused to share the lake. Frogheart’s patrol attacked our water patrol, forcing us to fight back. We are nearly out of water ourselves, and we bring six new apprentices and two new warriors. Blizzardcloud, Robinscreech, Fallowpaw, Echopaw, Maplepaw, Ivypaw, Lionpaw and Skunkpaw. We also received an omen from StarClan. Fallowpaw, Maplepaw and Ivypaw tasted salt water in the lake. All signs point to the sun drown place. Are we still good with the sun drown patrol?” Redstar announced. Swiftstar and Reedstar both stood up. “Midnight may not still be alive. But her daughter obviously has grown, and Midnight must have given Starry the powers to speak cat and connect with StarClan and the tribe of endless hunting. I’m only sending Eaglewing, I suggest ThunderClan could spare their apprentices and mentors” Swiftstar meowed. “Fallowpaw, Maplepaw, Ivypaw, Stoneclaw, Sorrelwave, Whitefeather, Riverspirit, Lionpaw, Echopaw and Skunkpaw will go with the patrol. Fallowpaw would have shredded my ears if I didn’t let the three extra apprentices go” Redstar purred. “I’m sending Acidfang and Yellowclaw” Tawnystar decided instantly. “RiverClan will send Troutfin, Ripplefang and Wavepaw” Reedstar meowed and looked at his cats. “Shall the patrol stay the night?” Redstar asked the other leaders before seeing their agreement. The rest of the cats left as the patrol began to make their nests and hunt. Wavepaw padded over to Fallowpaw and Echopaw. He placed two fish in front of them. “I figured you would like to eat, and you must be tired from that long walk.” The brown-ginger tom meowed. The two she-cats nodded their thanks before eating the fish. I have to thank him for the meal, but this isn’t fresh mouse Fallowpaw thought silently. She finished her meal before curling up beside Lionpaw and her sister, Maplepaw.
Fallowpaw closed her blue eyes before entering her dream. “Wha-Bramblestar?” The black and white she-cat asked when she saw the brown tabby. Cherryheart appeared beside him before smiling. “When the moon is at the highest point, the starry night will speak your answers.” The two tabbies meowed before Fallowpaw awakened. No one else was awake, and she curled up tight beside Lionpaw. Maplepaw seemed curled up with Wavepaw. She sighed before sniffing around the island. Not much prey would be out before sunrise. The scent of the last of the prey from the night before made her mouth water. Two sparrows, three mice, one fish and eight voles. That would probably feed the patrol. If not, Fallowpaw would probably take the responsibility of hunting. Lionpaw woke up and padded over towards Fallowpaw in complete silence. “You can take some, we can eat.” He meowed before passing a sparrow towards the black she-cat. Fallowpaw smiled and thanked him before sitting down at the edge of the lake on the island, looking at the sunrise. “It’s beautiful, don’t you think? Sunset is the same” Lionpaw commented as he ate beside her. “Yeah, I agree. Did you notice Maplepaw and Wavepaw?” Fallowpaw pointed out. Lionpaw turned his golden tabby head to see the two apprentices deep in sleep, tails twined. “Not until now. Do you think they like each other?” He asked in a whisper. If Wavepaw and Maplepaw liked each other, that would break the warrior code. What would happen then? Would StarClan accept Maplepaw when she died? “Maybe, but let’s not think about it now. I wonder how long it will take to make it to the sun drown place.” Fallowpaw meowed to Lionpaw. The rest of the patrol began to wake up and eat. Once everyone’s meal was finished Stoneclaw and Riverspirit began to guide the way to the sun drown place.
“How many days away is it?” Ivypaw asked
“Quite a few, eight to twelve depends on our speed” Riverspirit meowed
“Do you think that we will run into loners?” Skunkpaw lifted his ears in anticipation
“Of course, wind-brain!” Echopaw purred to her brother.
The large patrol of cats continued their journey sharing stories and hunting tips. Fallowpaw had the idea that they’d all have strong connections by the time they would return to the lake. “When hunting birds, make sure you crouch low, they have better hearing than us.” Whitefeather purred to some of the cats. They made good distance from the island by sunset. They were at the edge of the mountains, setting up a camp for the night. Maplepaw and Wavepaw were fishing at the river. The moon rose, shining on the water, and the sun set behind the large forest ahead. They had a long way to go, that’s for sure. Fallowpaw curled up beside Lionpaw, leaning against his warm fur. We will make it as a team. I hope mom and dad are ok. And Cloudyflare, her kits will be born any day now. I hope ThunderClan are safe.

Chapter three
When the journey finally arrived to the sun drown place, Lionpaw sat beside Fallowpaw in silence, as Riverspirit and Stoneclaw called for Midnight and Starry. Only one small badger came out and greeted them. “Midnight joined ancestors. I take place, help you I will. Ah, Fallowpaw, Lionpaw, Maplepaw, Echopaw, Ivypaw and Skunkpaw, it is.” Starry said slowly. “How do you know our names?” Lionpaw’s fur bristled. “Apart of a prophecy, you are. StarClan told me, drought will kill. Answers I have, for Clans. Won’t be long, rain will come. Powers, six apprentices, you will have. Unfortunately, none for other lone apprentice. Find it you must, some take from ancestors. Unsafe, home is. Many broken codes. Return, quickly, you must go. Tell leaders, danger rises. But rest here, you must. Sleep for night, in cave. Safe for night, you will be. Come now, my cave where you rest.” Starry replied. The patrol of cats entered the badger’s den. She seemed to have set up many nests. Maybe StarClan told her we were coming Lionpaw thought. The badger was a nest short, and he volunteered to share a nest with Fallowpaw. A light breeze entered the den when Echopaw walked passed the two cats. “I really hope that everything’s ok back home.” Fallowpaw sighed before shifting her position in the nest. “I do too, Fallowpaw. Only StarClan can help the Clans right now. We’ll be home in a few days.” He meowed before closing his green eyes. There was only darkness and cats in his point of view. A cat with a flaming pelt came from the stars, with a sand colored she-cat, leaving trails of fire and sand behind them. Many cats came running, fighting the darkness. Lionpaw looked around, and realised he was in the ThunderClan camp. He was able to make out his littermates, Maplepaw and Ivypaw. But where was Fallowpaw? He panicked, searching through the battlefield. He heard a familiar screech come from the nursery, the only place he hadn’t checked. He ran in, seeing the black and white she-cat with four, tiny kits wrapped around her tail. Two cats of the darkness was snapping their teeth at the she-cat. I won’t let you touch my friend! He thought, letting out a Lion-like hiss. The two dark figures were frozen in fear. Lionpaw sliced open a wound from one’s flank, then sank his teeth into the neck of the other’s. The one with his teeth sank into disappeared, leaving only black smoke behind. The other was dazed, and Lionpaw leaped onto its back, keeping a grip on its shoulders. Lionpaw heard Fallowpaw freak out before waking up and sat up, looking into her blue eyes. “Are you alright?” He asked, before the black and white she-cat began to calm down. “Yeah, I’m fine. Just a really bad dream.” Fallowpaw was breathing quickly. He looked at the other apprentices but Wavepaw, seeing them all toss and turn uncomfortably. “I did as well. And I think you sisters and my littermates are as well.” Lionpaw sat down. Fallowpaw laid back down in front of his paws. “Can you stay here until I fall asleep?” She murmured quietly. “Yeah, I promise” he meowed before he wrapped his tail around Fallowpaw’s sleeping body.

The traveling cats had returned to the Clans, only to find that the lake was almost completely dried up. “Great StarClan, we’ve got to get back to RiverClan!” Wavepaw panicked quickly before the RiverClan half began to make their way back to their territory. The patrol split back up before all returning to their Clans. ThunderClan’s territory was dried up, and almost lifeless. “I hope that Starry’s rain will come today. This won’t help Cloudyflare.” Lionpaw remarked before looking at his sister Echopaw, who was lifting her head and murmuring something before a breeze came and ruffled the cat’s fur. “Using the breeze, I can smell moisture coming to us. Rain will come, but we must be patient. A day or two, maybe three.” The gray tabby meowed, before putting her head back to normal. Something was strange about his sister, but she would make a good leader one day, and he hoped that his father, Redstar would see that. They made it back to camp only to see a poorly stocked fresh-kill pile and exhausted cats. Lionpaw looked over to where Fallowpaw once was, but was now running towards her mother. “Mom!” His friend yowled in joy. Lionpaw felt pride when his mother walked up to him and meowed softly. “You are my bravest warrior, little one.” The golden tabby tom made his way towards Fallowpaw. Flintspark gave the tom a lick behind the ear. “Thank you, for taking care of her. You are much like your father.” The gray she-cat purred before greeting her other kits. “Lionpaw! Come look! Cloudyflare had her kits!” Fallowpaw purred in joy. The two apprentices ran into the nursery to see two tiny bundles of kits. One chubby gray tabby and one Tiny white one with a black paw. “The gray one is Burnkit, and the white one is Tinykit.” The silvery-white she-cat meowed. Tinykit turned her head to see the apprentices, and gave a sleepy yawn. Fallowpaw leaned over and murmured in the tom’s ear “I want kits like these one day.” Lionpaw smiled a little before remembering his dream. Was that going to happen soon? They left the den to see the Clan gathered around Hollyberry and Echopaw. “What’s going on?” The large apprentice asked. Echopaw’s eyes seemed dull and lifeless for a few moments. “Echopaw has decided to choose the path of a medicine cat.” Hollyberry meowed with a happy voice. It does make sense for her to choose that path, both, leader and medicine cat roles are suited for her. Echopaw always seems distracted in the wind, and is always murmuring strange things. Maybe it was StarClan speaking to her in her mind. Maybe what Starry said was about us. Maybe, Echopaw has the power of speaking to anything in the wind… Lionpaw looked down at his paws, curious. Do I have a power as well? She said us, and not Wavepaw. What is my power? Wouldn’t I already know what it is by now? Echopaw has it all figured out. He looked over to Stoneclaw and Whitefeather who were murmuring things happily. Lionpaw had noticed that the two were very close, and probably mates. But Whitefeather had been acting strange since yesterday. Echopaw and her ex mentor, Brookfoot touched noses before leaving with Hollyberry for the secret medicine cat apprentice ceremony. He was sad that his sister would no longer share his den until they retired, if they even made it that far in life. Blizzardcloud ran up to the group of apprentices. “Guess what?” She smiled in joy. “What?” Fallowpaw squeaked in return. “I’m expecting kits!” Who’s the father? He wondered. “Who’s the father to the next warriors?” Maplepaw asked, raising a kitty-brow. “You have to promise not to tell anyone.” Blizzardcloud looked around, excited. “The father is, Ashbite!” The gray tabby meowed. Fallowpaw instantly unsheathed her claws. “Ashbite!” The black and white cat hissed in anger. The two cats hated each other after the battle for the piece of lake. “It’s not going to hurt anyone.” Blizzardcloud looked down at her paws. “It will hurt many cats when the time comes and their born! ShadowClan will want the kits, even if they have to kill them!” Fallowpaw spat in anger. Redstar made his way over. “What about ShadowClan, and kits?” He demanded. “Blizzardcloud and Ashbite of ShadowClan are having kits! And we all know how that ends!” The apprentice meowed in anger. The red tabby tom looked at the gray and white cat. “Is it true?” He asked, his eyes cold on the warrior. She couldn’t look him in the eye. “It is, but ThunderClan will have new warriors!” The young warrior tried to stay strong. “It won’t matter when we lose warriors for them! And I doubt that there will be enough kits to replace the fallen!” He countered. “But there is no stopping these kits from being born.” The leader’s voice softened. Redstar left them, unimpressed before leaping up on the highledge. “Let all cats old enough to catch their own prey, gather for a Clan meeting!” He said calmly. All the cats in the Clan gathered, and Cloudyflare had managed to get the kits asleep in time to join them. “In a moon or two, ShadowClan will attack us. How do we know for sure? Blizzardcloud was irresponsible enough to have kits with Ashbite of ShadowClan. We’ve had our conflicts in the past, but this time, it will be different. We will intensely practice battle training, and reinforce the nursery like the battle against the Dark Forest long ago. Three hunting patrols will go each two days to catch as much as possible. Even if we have to eat the insects in the forest to stay full, we still train. They will send all their cats, even elders, bloodthirsty and prepared to even kill the kits. Clan dismissed.” Redstar meowed.
