As most cats already know, the four clans of Wind, Shadow, River, and Thunder had undergone a Great Journey to their new home at the lake, but many cats perished on the journey either by simply disappearing one day, or by dying of cold and hunger. Well, two cats from the clans of River and Thunder had been two of the many cats who disappeared. Their names where Dragonleap of Thunder Clan and Foxheart of Riverclan. Dragonleap and Foxheart had been in love but their clanmates looked down on this, reminding them that even though they were working together to survive, didn't mean they were all in the same clan. Foxheart was a young delicate she-cat, her paws where a dainty white and the rest of her fur was ginger orange with sparkling blue eyes to finish her looks. She grieved when her clanmates tried their best to cause a rift in her relationship with Dragonleap, they tried everything, from lying to them about the other to just leading them away whenever they had an opportunity to talk. Dragonleap was a strong tom from Thunder Clan with sleep black fur marked by white stripes on his back. His shoulders were broad, his paws were large and his eyes were a ghostly green. He grew tired of how their clanmates tried to tear apart their relationship, but not everyone fell upon him for it, only a few of his closest friends. Their were a few apprentices that knew too, but most of them supported his plight. One day Dragonleap finally had a chance alone with Foxheart while the clans slept. They sat together and Dragonleap let his feelings be known to Foxheart. He convinced her to leave with him so that they may start a new life together and away from their clanmates prying eyes. Foxheart was reluctant at first, but eventually agreed. She felt the same way. The pair hadn't noticed that a few supportive apprentices had been listening and they stepped forward eager to go with them. There were only 3 of them and their names were Flightpaw of Wind Clan, Freepaw of Shadow Clan, and Sparrowpaw of Wind Clan. Foxheart and Dragonleap were surprised at how eager they were to travel with them, away from their family and clan into dangerous unknown territory. After some thought Foxheart nodded, showing their agreement and the apprentices grew exited. The apprentices caught a few extra mice the next day saying they were going to help the Elders, but instead they would store it under a few snow burrows. Then they hid while no one in the area noticed, in the sparse mountain bushes around that grew on the craggy cliffs. Flightpaw had an easy time considering her fur was snow white. Freepaw had a harder time, her fur was dark brown with light brown stripes so she hid higher up in the bushes in between the dead leaves. Sparrowpaw didn't have to much difficulty, her fur was gray with a few black stripes on her forelegs. They lay in hiding until the clans had moved on. Foxheart and Dragonleap had hidden in an old rabbit burrow and came out once night fell the apprentices and the mates dug up what they had caught and ate it, strengthening themselves for the journey they were about to embark on them, hoping Star Clan would watch over them. Once finished, they stood up, nodded at each other and as a group, with Dragonleap at the lead, they trotted up a craggy side path on the mountain, heading deeper into the mountain range than even the Tribe cats have never entered, and so begins the Legacy of Dragon
