A/N : this is an original series based on the Warriors series. Meaning the characters are all original. So this first chapter will be more of a list of all the characters and the prologue of the story and then next chapter I'll get into the introduction of the characters. Apologizes if this series will be slow paced but I'm trying to stick close to Erin Hunter's style of writing which is sort of slow paced. Also I intend for this story to be the length of a Warriors book so yeah... it might be long. Can you guess which kit will be the main character of this story?

PROLOGUE

The Dark Forest was still and quiet, no wind rustling the leaves, and no small animals crawling in the bracken. The only thing that moved was the fog. It was like a predator searching for prey, silently creeping through the brambles and grass, crawling up the tree's roots. It was cold and haunting, something about it chilling a cat's very heart. The fog's creeping was disturbed by a slender brown she-cat that padded quickly through it. She sat down in a clearing that was free from the mist and curled her tail around her paws as she sat down.

"Where am I? Am I all alone?" she inquired softly her whiskers trembling with nervousness. Silence answered her and she felt unease prickle her pelt. She whisked her head to the side hopefully when she saw a dark shape moving in the mist next to her.

"Sagestar!" She exclaimed cheerfully hopping onto her paws and racing towards him. She entwined her tail with his as the mist swam around their heads.

"Doefoot" Sagestar breathed her name as he rubbed his muzzle against hers. "I've waited so long to see you. I feared that you might have gone to Starclan and then be lost to me forever."

"No, I would never leave you, my brave warrior. So this is the dark forest then?' she withdrew her muzzle and glanced around. The trees loomed ominously above her, their branches like claws that reached for the inky sky.

"Yes. " Sagestar padded away from her and hopped onto a tree root. "And here we are free to make our plans without interference from a bunch of feeble cats. When I lost the battle I was so devastated. But my anger only fuels me to continue on."

"So your going to try and take over the forest again?" Doefoot whispered her whiskers trembling with anticipation. "Do you think we can do it again? Make Shadowclan the true leaders of the forest?"

"All in good time. My first attempt was a failure. I was too rash, too bold. But now that I am dead I can do as I please because I don't have to worry about dying again." He scrapped his claws on the bark. "I will not fail this time for certain. I will make anyone who stood in my way before, tremble in their pelt. "

"And I will stand by your side." Doefoot leapt up to join the black tom on the tree root. "Just like I did in the forest. Together we can do anything."

Sagestar nodded his head in appreciation. "What exactly is this plan?" Doefoot mewed. "I do not have it all mapped out yet," Sagestar leapt off the root pouncing on a fallen branch and crushing it underneath his massive paws, "but trust me when I say it will crush the clans for good."

Sagestar flicked his tail toward the she-cat, "Come let us find Bushwhacker."

Doefoot followed the black tom and the mist slowly swallowed them up until they were both gone.
