Okay guys, here it is!

This is just a fun little story I cooked up just for fun. Enjoy!

I will not die until the forest is safe from you. Firestar's words echoed in Tigerstar's ears. He glanced around the clearing.

The battle. He remembered it so clearly. All the dark forest cats' hard work, their planning and time spent to make their dreams for total power come true…

Wasted. All of their efforts wasted.

After they lost the battle, they had fled here. No dark forest cat knew where exactly it was. Though they did know that here they could not see, hear or tamper with anything the living clan cats were doing. They couldn't even see Starclan. That's why they named this place the 'Place Beyond the Stars'.

It seemed quite fitting, actually. For the only thing they could see –more like get glimpses of- where the swirling constellations all around them.

At first all the cats had rejoiced about finding that they could stay.

Little did they know that it really was confinement. Life here was boring. There was absolutely nothing that they could do.

"Ahem, Tigerstar?"

Tigerstar turned around but then groaned when he saw who it was. "Go away Darkstripe." He mumbled, turning his back to the dark colored tabby.

"Tigerstar, Brokenstar is going to make an announcement. He asked me to come and get you."

Tigerstar growled and narrowed his eyes. Ever since they had come here, Brokenstar had again taken control. Nobody had even asked him if he would have liked to be the leader, just this once! No, they just let Brokenstar waltz right up there and lead them when he had been the one who got them here in the first place.

"Why couldn't he come fetch me himself? What am I, just a second-rate warrior?!"

Darkstripe gulped. "N-n-no of course not!" he stammered. "He's just very busy with all his leader duties and such-"

"Him!? Leader duties? HA! He hasn't even lifted a claw to get us out of here! All I see him doing is laying around, sleeping."

"Oh yes, I forgot to mention that he said if you came he would give you some coffee."

Tigerstar's eyes lit up. Though the dark forest cats had not yet been able to summon clan cats here in dreams, they had managed to summon one thing; a weird liquid labeled 'coffee'. Mapleshade had tried it and found that it was actually pretty good. But after that Brokenstar had collected all of it and had basically used it as bait to get the other cats to do what he wanted. Though how could anyone resist such deliciously tempting drink?

"Fine," Tigerstar grumbled, "I'll come to his stupid meeting."

That's it for now guys! Don't worry, it will get way more derpy once I explain the full situation that the dark forest cats are in.

Part two will be out tomorrow! YAY!
