Prologue-

The full moon shined on MidnightClan's camp. Moonstar stood on the High Tree. "Let all cats old enough to hunt their own prey join for a gathering under the High Tree." She yowled. The few cats that were in her clan joined, adding up to only 7. "I have gathered you all here for a very important purpose tonight. I, Moonstar of Midnghtclan, am disbanding this clan." She meowed with difficulty.

"What?" Mapleheart, the deputy, yowled. "How could you do this?"

"I don't want to go!" Nightpaw mewed. "It's not fair!" Specklepaw added.

"It's only been a moon since you started this clan." Wishfur, the medicine cat meowed.

"Wishfur's right! Things can get better!" Cherrydapple argued.

"Yes, that's true, but it's better if we all left right now. We all have the risk of dying." Moonstar meowed.

"No Moonstar!" Sparkheart yowled. "Please!"

"I'm really sorry, everyone. I can't put all your lives in danger." Moonstar meowed.

"Fine!" Fangheart growled. "Then this is goodbye." He meowed as he stalked off into the night.

Cherrydapple and Sparkheart, being Fangheart's littermates, ran after him. "Bye." Cherrydapple meowed. "We won't forget you, and we'll try to rebuild this clan." Sparkheart added.

Wishfur and Mapleheart dipped their heads. "Farewell, Moonstar." Wishfur mewed. "Goodbye." Mapleheart mewed. They padded away.

Nightpaw glanced at Specklepaw., then dipped his head to Moonstar. Specklepaw did the same. "Bye." They both mewed, then ran off.

"Farewell, my former clan mates." Moonstar whispered. She slipped out of the moonlight, living as a rouge cat in the shadows once again...
