Blackstar, we need to talk. Tell me everything. All you know about why they would attack just to take kits?
i was roused from sleep by a warrior,lighteyes, who had been on duty as watchcat. "blackstar has come to see you." "bring her in!" blackstar appeared, hard to see in the night. "firestar, horrible news. my whole clan is outside. they are devestated, gustclan, they destroyed our entire camp and stole our medicine cats soon to be apprentice, she was already chosen. they destroyed the camp seemingly for no reason..." "bring your clan in, and bring them to my den, i have secret caves that we can use in our dens. go to them now, bring them in, and there is prey buried tat you can eat. in the morning, we will attack gustclan. they will regret having stolen kits. especially kayaclan ones. the dogs ran away, their tails between their legs.we watched them go, and turned around to face the new cats. "who are you?" blackstar asked calmly. "we are cloudclan. starclan, our warrior ancestors guided us here, after a pack of dogs chased us from our home. who are you?" "we are the five clans. lightningclan,kayaclan,waveclan,gustclan,and moonclan." i reply. "and you are welcome to stay here to recuperate, and later we will decide upon where your territory will be, but for now you will stay with lightningclan. any objections?"no one objected. and so it was. now there were 6 clans.
at the gathering.....
we are discussing the water shortages in moonclan, and they are very serious. "rainstar, please, you must give us rights to the rivers, otherwise we will die. three of our elders and eight of our kits are dead from dehydration. please, help us." "shadowstar, i do not trust you. you have stolen our prey many times before." "rainstar, this is unfair. lightningclan has no water except very close to our camp, which is a very long distance to walk for water, and gustclan is on the other side of the lake. you however, have a stream just a couple fox-lengths away from the border, surly you can spare enough water to keep them alive? i say evenly. "fine, but no prey-stealing. we're watching you...." "intruders!!!" we whirl around to see a group of cats so ragged it's surprising they're alive. some are carrying kits, some are obviously elders, and one is what seems to be a leader. "Help! please help whoever you are, we are being chased by dogs, and they've already caught an elder and a kit! if you have hearts you will help us!" suddenly a dog crashes through the bushes behind them and they screech in terror. i leap over and start yowling orders. the queens and apprentices take the kits, their mothers, and elders into hiding. and we leap into battle. I'm guessing you don't have a good idea of what the camp looks like...so this is a description.
bushes make up the entrance to dens, but the warriors den is a tree that fell (when the sign came: lightning strikes and a fire starts. this very fire will save us all.)as one wall, and a bush that's been woven into a wall and the roof. the elders den is a hollow bush,that has honeysuckle growing on it. the apprentice den is a hollow tree that has bushes woven around it, and another tree leaning over top and creating a roof. the medicine den is a rock entrance and lichen hanging down to make a curtain,and a rock cave with a stream running through and a smaller cave for herb storage. the leaders den is a cave behind highrock,with yet again a lichen curtain, and another stream, but a sandy bank to the side where the water has worn away a hollow in the wall and another tunnel branching off to a cave for kits and elders to hide in an invasion that is full of moss nests for them to sleep in. it also has a spot for hiding prey for the elders and kits to eat. the highrock is 2 rocks leaning on each other and another rock jutting out to make a platform. there is a large sandy clearing and off towards the nursery is the fresh kill pile. there are bramble walls surrounding the camp too. "it has ended.we have won, but not without a price!"i yowl to the clan. as i say this, i flashback to the end of the battle.
*cue flashback* blackstar and i rush through the throng of fighting cats,knowing without speaking that we will find bone-crusher, and defeat him together.we see him and i jump on him, just as he is about to kill lighteyes. and i screech,thats my my daughter you rouge! and i attempt to kill him.slashing as hard as we can, blackstar and i back him into the wall. suddenly, i let my guard down, and he slams his claws down on my head, and the world went black. as i awoke,i saw a cat standing over me.it was lightningstar."you have fought well young one." "where am i?" "starclan. you have lost your first life." "send me back to the battle!i have to fight deathclan!i have to help blackstar!" "patience young one. your body needs to repair itself. in few seconds you will return." i open my eyes and bone-breaker has blackstar pinned against the ground.he holds her down and she struggles, though she is losing strength. i yowl a battle cry as i leap onto bone-breakers back.as i deliver the killing blow the shock shows in his eyes. "how..." "i have nine lives. granted to me by starclan.you will not hurt my friends any more!" the anger in his eyes goes dark and he goes limp. bone-breaker is dead *end of flashback* "i have lost yellowwater, my deputy. and now, the time has come to appoint a new deputy. lighteyes, step forward." the shock in her eyes is evident, as she is my adopted daughter,and almost never does a clan leader choose their own kin to be their deputy."lighteyes, do you accept the role of deputy to this clan?" "i do." "then by the power of starclan you are appointed deputy." lighteyes! lighteyes! lighteyes! we surround the old twoleg nest where deathclan had set up camp.we had joined forces with kayaclan,waveclan,moonclan,and gustclan.as all 5 clans gathered,we quietly sent out orders. first we would do the lightning strike, then the dog pack move,then we would lead them to the water (waveclan had taught a select few to fight in the water.)and do our thing.then moonclan would summon complete darkness,(one of the 5 ancient powers) and attack in the dark. then finnally,we would mix the 5 ancient powers,gustclan's wind,waveclan's tsunami,moonclan's darkness,lightningclan's storm,and kayaclans dogs.hopefuly we would win. if not,we would lose our homes.
the new highrock post is in order for announcements.thanks to lighteyes for the suggestion.( :
