Alright, so my story One By One wasn't all to sucessful, but Im hoping this one will be. :)
Full summary:
Instead of staying a medicine cat, Spottedleaf decided to become a warrior, a queen, to be with her love, Fireheart. When she has kits, one, Winterkit, is marked for dead. But with her whole life ahead of her, can she cheat death and stay alive? And if she can, for how long?
AU ( I just found what that stands for. XD. Alternate Universe)
So heres the allegiances. A few of the queens never mentioned the kits until they were born, but I couldn't remember the kits names, so I decided to make up my own characters. For ThunderClan at least. Also, all the apprentices are now older, and all of them that are in the allegiances will become warriors in this book. If I didn't do that, there would be no warriors left to be mentors, and the apprentices den would be bigger then the warriors
Also, many things are going to be changed in this book, which takes place during Fire and Ice, but the plotline for this book will change some thiongs in the plotline for Fire and Ice

Prologue
Spottedleaf sighed, gazing at the stars. For days, she had done nothing but what she had to, which was occasionally heal small scratches. Two moons ago, Firepaw had become Fireheart, and just after that, they had admitted their feelings to eachother. Now, Spottedleaf wondered if staying a medicine cat was what she wanted. Medicine cats weren't supposed to have mates, but Spottedleaf loved Fireheart too much to tell him they couldn't see eachother again, but she also didn't want to keep their love a secret.
In fact, she wanted to tel the whole forest.
She felt a kick in her stomach, and she couldn't find her breath. Was that a kit kicking? No, it couldn't be!
Spottedleaf began a detailed physical of herself, checking for the signs of pregnancy. No, I'm not pregnant! I'm not pregnant, I'm not pregnant. She told herself over and over, but sighed loudly. She wanted to wail, she wanted to crawl into a hole. She wanted Fireheart.
Sighing, she pushed her way into the fern tunnel, going to head outside. Knowing most cats would be asleep. She jumped out of her fur when a cat appeared infront of her. A ginger pelt brushed hers and immediatly she felt more calm. She let out a long breath, but conflict still shone in her green eyes.
Fireheart must have noticed, he always does, because he meowed, "Are you okay?" he brushed his muzzle against her ear in a comforting motion as she dug her face in his chest.
"No." she breathed softly, his flame colored pelt ruffling with her breath.
"What happened?" he murmured into her ear, staying calm.
Spottedleaf felt a lump rising in her throat. "I have to talk to Bluestar in the morning and tell her I'm stepping down from the medicine cat position."
Fireheart tensed with surprised, then relaxed, but his voice still held shock. "Don't quit because of me."
Spottedleaf took a step back to look him in the eyes. "I'm not... it's for our kits."
Firehearts green eyes widened, and he gasped. "Kits?"
Spottedleaf nodded, but a though entered her mind. I'm going to be the best mother to them, and I can't wait until their born.
"One of the queens can take them," Fireheart meowed, beginning to look panicked. "Bluestar wouldn't have to know. The queens like you and-"
Spottedleaf slapped her tail over his mouth. "Shh, you'll wake up the whole Clan." she whispered, withdrawing her tail. "Anyway, I want them. They're my kits."
Fireheart blinked, then nodded. "If you want. They'll be great kits. But if you ever start regretting your choice-"
Spottedleaf cut him off again. "Fireheart, calm down. I won't regret this." she whispered. She pushed past him, brushing her pelt against him lovingly. "I'm going to go see if Bluestar is awake."
As she emerged into the clearing, she heard Fireheart padding out behind her. He glanced at her, purred slightly, and crossed the clearing to the warriors den. Spottedleaf began to head toward Bluestars den, but her pawsteps slowed. Do I want to do this? She took a deep breath and picked up her pace. Yes.
"Bluestar?" she called softly into the den, hoping not to awake the leader.
"Come in." Came the reply. It sounded tired, but only slightly. Bluestar must have been laying down, but not asleep yet. Spottedleaf padded into the den and took a deep breath, facing her leader.
"Spottedleaf? What is it? Is some cat hurt?" Bluestar said, pushing herself to her paws.
Spottedleaf shook her head. "No, Bluestar, but I have to confess..." She took a deep breath. "I'm pregnant with Fireheart's kits."
Bluestars blue eyes widened. "Spottedleaf! I knew you always showed feelings for him, but I never expected you to betray your Clan." Her voice held so much disappointment that Spottedleaf hung her head.
"I'm sorry, Bluestar. I wish to step away from my medicine cat position and let Yellowfang take my place." she whispered. It was out, and now there was no way to turn back.
Bluestar took a long breath. "The Clan won't be the same without you as their medicine cat," she meowed, and Spottedleaf looked up at her leader. "but I can't force you to stay. You can become a queen, but remember that I am ashamed of you."
Spottedleaf nodded and turn, sadness filling her to the hilt. She padded out with tail dragging, wanting to wail again. Once she reached outside the den, she took a deep breath.
She had so much more ahead of her now. No more healing cats or saving them, no more StarClan. Now she was Spottedleaf, former medicine cat, queen.
This was her new life.
Alright so theres the prologue. Now, R&R! Go, press that button! XD.
