The curtains unfold and reveal two she-cats sitting on bean bags, one a pink and red bean bag and the other a silver and black. The crowd goes wild as a dark brown tabby tom with amber eyes and a gray-flecked Tom join them on stage and sit on two other bean bags at the corner of the stage. The tabby sits on a blood red one with black stripes and the other on a silver and dark blue.

Ashur: Welcome everyone young and old, kits, and elders to the prologue of... drumroll, please!

"Drumroll"

Everyone: Hollyleaf's story!

Moonshine: As you know when we were looking for OCs in the first chapter there was a huge fight that led us all to the hospital but we are back and better than ever!

Ivy: Except for Hawkfrost...

Tigerstar sniffs.

Ashfur: Sadly, he somehow fell off the stage while fighting with Holly and he was rushed to the hospital so... he won't be here for a while.

Tigerstar starts crying loudly.

Ivy: Loser...

Ashfur: Hey, remember the contract.

Ivy rolls her eyes.

Ashfur: Well let's get back to business and oh and Holly couldn't be here either as she got some pretty brutal injuries in the fight and also fell off the stage with Hawkfrost laughs Yeah it's not like it was planned.

Guilty, Moonshine shrinks lower in her seat.

Ivy: Yeah it's because of you, Moonshine! I had to tear you of Holly.

Ashfur clears his throat loudly but the she-cats continue bickering.

Ivy: By the way, why did you have to write such a long prologue anyway Moonshine?

Moonshine: It wasn't just me!

Ivy: You're the director it's your choice how long you want it to be!

Ashfur clears throat again and this time when both she-cats don't stop bickering he whistles at Tigerstar and Tigerstar points a long shiny sharpened knife at them. The she-cats see it and cautiously settle down back in the seats.

Ashfur: Listen up! I know this prologue is very long but we wanted you to understand why Hollyleaf was doing this and this also explains the name Hollyleaf promise.

Ivy: I guess so, anyway Tigerstar and Hawkfrost will be our body guards for the book, and I, Holly, and Moonshine are your hosts and Ashfur handle everything backstage basically so I'm the manager anyway let's start the prologue now!

Both toms hurry of the stage and the lights dim.

I padded through the forest, the large looming pine trees casting shadows down on her that hid my night black pelt, there was a slight breeze in the air that stirred the bracken and ferns on the forest floor. I could hear mice dart through the undergrowth for shelter as I walked by but I didn't really care. There were several flowers appearing here and there occasionally, other than trees there were several thorn bushes, weeds and roots and the ground was very muddy but the scent of all sorts of prey filled my nose and I licked my lips as the delicious aroma surrounded me but I wasn't here for hunting. I didn't even know where I was going until I heard the waves of a nearby stream and realized I was near Riverclan's part of Starclan.

The water shone brightly as I gazed at the water flowing steadily, this stream was not nearly as big as the river that ran through Starclan. I padded through the slimy reeds that led to several rocks good for lying in the sun. I sat down on the smooth, burning hot rocks that bordered the stream and relished the sun shining down on my pelt, which was far better than those dark shadows. I could see tiny minnows flowing through the water of the stream but I resisted the temptation to catch one. I sniffed the air and was hoping the scent of pines and the salty scent of the river would make all my worries disappear but it wasn't as easy as it sounded.

I sighed and continued staring at the water with a troubled expression but all I saw was a pure black she-cat with emerald green eyes staring back at me until I heard the rustling of the reeds on one side of the stream.

' I can't believe someone found me so quickly!' I thought. I quickly ducked down, trying to act as though I was sunbathing but it was too late as out stepped a light brown tabby she-cat, whose pelt shone golden in the bright sunlight and was littered with millions of stars.

She giggled quietly, "Hollyleaf, stop trying to act like your sunbathing I saw you anyway." She took a spot next to me and exclaimed, "Hollyleaf, what's up! Are you okay?"

I cracked open one eye and yawned sleepily, "In case you didn't notice I was trying to relax. That is until you started stomping half way through the forest to get here!" I lied and I curled my fluffy tail around myself, refusing to get up.

"Come on give it a rest or is this part of your weird 'I will stare at the stream' phase or are you just trying to catch a fish? Because if you do want to I can take you to my Riverclan friends, Primrosepaw and Feathertail and we could go learn how to fish, it will be s-" Honeyfern continued on, chattering like a sparrow.

I flicked my tail in annoyance and buried my head in my soft tail as I stopped listening to Honeyfern's pointless ranting.

"-Oh and I heard Hazeltail was going to come soon."

My head snapped up upon hearing that. "That's not a good thing Honeyfern," I pointed out.

"Yeah, but we'll have more company and it would be easier trying to drown you in a stream, oh, speaking of streams Bluestar wants you."

My mouth dropped open and I stared in Honeyfern in annoyance and surprise. "Why did you not tell me this earlier instead of talking about streams or whatever!" I yelled at her.

"You never told me to stop. "Was her only reply as with a flick of her tail she cheerfully bounced through the reeds and back out through the forest. "Come on Bluestar is waiting at Starclan's side of Moonpool, follow me!" She called.

I got up and groaned but followed Honeyfern through the forest anyway and we left the stream and started walking the opposite direction from which I had come from. The leaves crunched under my paws as I trudged gloomily beside Honeyfern.

"Why so sad?" Honeyfern asked curiously as she led the way, her paws wet with mud from probably searching for me.

"Um..." I started but then looked away, "I wished I had lived longer." I could feel Honeyfern glance at me in concern.

"Most of us do but I'm guessing you probably wanted a little more time to make things right with your family and Thunderclan," She looked away, "And Leafpool, Squirrelflight, and Brambleclaw have already forgiven you." She reminded with a kind smile.

My ear twitched. 'Honeyfern could be really annoying but she had a heart of gold' I thought. "You could say that." I stated, bluntly. I could feel my fur get tangled up as we rounded some thorn bushes.

"Well, you've got me and Molepaw and maybe your brothers will come soon." She comforted but then a mischievous grin spread across her face, "Oh, I think I heard someone looking for you." She teased, trying to lighten my mood.

"Why?" I questioned, "Almost everyone around here knows me and sees me a lot, Why would one specific cat look for me?"

"Well," She continued, her smile enlarging slowly, "I think his name was um flat leaf, no um frog leafy, oh, I think it was Fallen leaves..." As she finished she searched my face as if she tried to read my emotions.

I scoffed, "Fallen leaves huh, Well yeah, we are good friends." But the name sent a shiver down my spine and I could feel the tips of my ears heating up as memories flashed through my mind faster than any Windclan cat could run.

I sighed as Honeyfern let out a loud giggle "But do you like-like him." She pressed, her eyes sparkled with anticipation as she bounced around waiting for my answer. (aww this reminds me of when I was in 2nd grade and my friends would ask me if I liked someone...)

I almost tripped on a stray root as I heard her question but now that I think about it, Do I really like-like Fallen leaves? 'I did feel kind of different around him in my last days of living in that tunnel.'

"Um…" I started but thankfully didn't have to finish as I felt long strands of heather brush my legs and I realized we had left the forest and had arrived at the place Bluestar told us to meet at.

"Well, we're here." She said as she walked towards a small open field surrounded by many birch trees, there were clumps of heather here and there, the grass shone in the sun and there were Gorse bushes protecting the sides of the clearing and the best part of the whole clearing: Starclan's side of Moonpool. The pool was small but had water flowing in it was as dark as the night sky, and had the reflection of many shining stars in the pool. It was very dazzling at night time especially, and the edges of the pool were covered in hard smooth, stone and ferns littering the back of the pool.

The pool was small but had waters flowing in it as dark as the night sky, and had the reflection of many stars shining in the pool, it was very dazzling at night time especially, and the edges of the pool were covered in hard smooth, stone and ferns littering the back of the pool.

As she stood at the entrance to the clearing several cat scents flooded her scenes and she saw many cats seated by gorse bushes talking to each other in hushed whispers.

"Lots of cats here." I commented casually but inside my heart was pounding, 'What do all these cats want from me?'

Several cats turned to look at us as we entered the clearing. Suddenly from behind the soft ferns that surrounded the Moonpool, two cats popped up from the behind them, one gray-blue she-cat with light blue eyes and a long scar down her shoulder and beside her stood a dark ginger tom with emerald green eyes and a coat like burning red fire.

As Firestar and Bluestar padded to stand near Moonpool. I gasped as I saw a group of cats get up to join Bluestar and Firestar. I glanced at the gathered cats and identified them as Redtail, Yellowfang, Whitestorm, Lepordstar, Tallstar, Crookedstar, Russetfur, but a certain gray flecked pelt caught her eye, 'Ashfur, what was he doing here?'

I directed my attention to Firestar and noticed there were four unfamiliar cats standing by him. 'Who are they?' I saw cats gazing at them in awe, 'I feel like I know them….'

I snapped my head in Honeyfern's direction and saw her awkwardly shuffling her paws, not knowing what to do under the eyes of so many cats.

But before I could say anything Bluestar's kind voice, broke Honeyfern out of her trance, "Honeyfern, you may sit over there beside the Gorse bushes." Bluestar flicked her tail to a few tail lengths away from me in between Yellowfang and Whitestorm.

Honeyfern cast me a glance as if to ask me what's going on but I simply shrugged in response before she padded over to sit beside Whitestorm, who greeted her with a warm purr.

I suddenly realized the tension flowing around the cats beside Moonpool, who were murmuring quietly and casting small glances in my direction. I ignored them and turned my gaze towards Bluestar.

Bluestar's gaze was calm and kind but her shoulders were tensed and her claws were unsheathed, "Do you know why you are here Hollyleaf? or Why all these cats are gathered here?" She questioned, her gaze searching mine.

"No," I answered, 'Why is everyone so worried?' "Honeyfern didn't tell me."

I shifted my gaze and stared with interest at the four cats sitting calmly, next to Firestar. "Are you really the founders of the four clans?" I asked.

Riverstar laughed lightly, as Windstar padded towards me and stood nose to nose with me. "Yes, we are the founders of the clans." She replied, her voice layered with moons of wisdom, "But we didn't all come to talk about our, mostly my success."

I heard Thunderstar snort as Windstar said that but I turned my eyes back to Bluestar, but this time it was Firestar who spoke: "Hollyleaf, you know how Darktail attacked and drove away Skyclan from their home."

'Darktail.' I thought with hatred. Darktail had attacked Skyclan and now Skyclan was spread out far from their former territory. In many moons, Darktail would finally reach the other four clans and try to destroy them soon but hopefully he would not even come close. "Yeah" I answered.

'Where is this leading?'

"Darktail is not the only danger…" Firestar continued with caution, the tip of his tail twitched, "There is a group of cats, who live like any other clan here."

My eyes grew wide and I couldn't comprehend his words.

'Another clan? How is that possible!?' My heart was beating wildly in my chest.

"Just like us." I repeated, I swear every hair on pelt was bristling, and I could hear the quiet murmur of cats as the latest news spread through Starclan.

"Not… completely." Bluestar explained, "You see their clan is cruel, very cruel, fights break out among there clanmates each and every day and they force cats anywhere near their territory to join there clan and if they decline…Well, let's not go there. Instead of believing in Starclan they have their own version of us, Moonclan."

"Moonclan." I repeated.

Shadowstar stepped forward, "They are similar to us but they believe and encourage their ways, many cats are suffering and losing their lives because of this new clan." she added, darkly.

Windstar shivered, "Darkclan may be paying a visit to the clans, a very long visit." She growled and unsheathed her claws, "They will not touch Windclan."

"Darkclan almost matches the four clans in numbers." Firestar informed, his tail lashed in anger and he started pacing, back and forth, "Slowly they will weaken the clans, tremendously."

"If Darkclan does reach the lake…" I trailed off, the thoughts coming into my head were horrifying but a fierce wind tugged at my fur, pulling me out of my thoughts.

"If Darkclan ever does meet Darktail and his cats who knows what they could do to the clans." Redtail pointed out as the Starclan cats listened in shock and horror. Suddenly the Starclan cats watching erupted into a series of questions.

"How will we stop them?"

"Will the clans survive?"

"How will we deal with them?"

"What will happen to Starclan?"

"Will Moonclan take over?"

"Will Darkclan?"

"And what about Darktail?"

Whitestorm raised his tail for silence, but gossip still spread through the cats like a wildfire.

"Thank you Whitestorm, But It will not only be Darkclan's victory but Moonclan's too." Lepordstar hissed, running her tongue through her golden spotted fur, grooming it until it shined.

That's when I noticed Starclan wasn't as bright as it used to be, it also explained the harsh winds earlier and even my own pelt lacked its usual starriness. As if to agree a harsh wind tore through the clearing disturbing the once peaceful Heather strands and ferns, sending them flying across the clearing and ruffling my fur, sending cold shivers down my spine.

"What else do you know about Moonclan? And how long have you known?" I heard another cat accuse, I turned around to see one of my former clanmates, Mousefur.

Cats started shouting out their own accusations and questions until no one was able to be heard, the wind howled, all the voices were getting to my head as I raised my voice to the sky, to yowl loudly over the howling of wind, "Calm down, I'm sure they have a good reason why they had hidden this from us." Some cats stopped to look at me but everyone else still argued among themselves.

Firestar raised his voice too and added, "We are behaving just like Moonclan." The cats turned their gazes towards Firestar, his own gaze raking each and every cat, Firestar continued, "Why are we behaving like this in front of the clan's founders, of all cats? We do have a reason just like Hollyleaf said. Now please give us some silence so we may explain." He sat back down, several cats flattened their ears in shame, Firestar flattened his fur and his long ginger tail curled around his paws and gestured with his tail to allow Bluestar to speak once there was complete silence.

Bluestar threw Firestar a grateful glance, "I and several other leaders, medicine cats, and deputies have discussed this over time and since this was an issue even before the great battle we didn't want anyone to panic. Although, I think we have been waiting a little too long."

"You think." Russetfur snorted, from where she was sitting beside Raggedstar.

Riverstar finally spoke looking straight at me with his calm patient blue eyes, "The good news is we have a plan. We cannot send someone from the clans to prevent Darkclan from reaching the lake as they themselves are still healing and Bramblestar already has another prophecy to deal with so we have chosen a very gifted Starclan to…. Well, I wouldn't call it destroy but just to lead them away from the clans." He finished, the cats glanced at each other, confused and many were glancing at me.

'What do I have to do with this?' I thought, astounded

"That someone is you Hollyleaf, " Firestar said, "You have great potential to be a leader and I trust you will achieve greatness just like your brothers, Dovewing, Ivypool and many other great leaders before you."

The words went in and out of my head several times as I tried to make sense out of the words that just flew out of Firestar mouth.

"Me!" I breathed out, "I'm supposed to take on an entire clan of warriors almost the same number as the four clans by myself?!" My voice got louder with each word, I stared at the leaders incredulously.

"Not alone," Thunderstar reassured, "You will have your own clan to stand by you and they will fight for you and their clan in- "

I cut him off with a low growl, "That's like asking me to betray Thunderclan. To turn my back on them just for the leadership of a new clan!" I growled, my fur started rising again.

"There isn't much you can do to help Thunderclan as a Starclan cat. If you do accept you will be saving all of the clan's mouse brains and so much more." Yellowfang urged, she clawed the grass under her paws to shreds in annoyance.

I let out a breath I didn't even know I was holding and licked my fur as an attempt to flatten it and I asked: "So, Will I be reincarnated like Cinderpelt?".

"Not really." Bluestar mused, "We can only send our spirits into newborn kits but we don't have the time for that or the cat you were sent into would be her own cat and not let you take control or- "

"What she means is," Shadowstar interrupted, with an annoyed twitch of her ear, "Is that instead of taking that route, we will send your spirit to the real world, over time we will use Starclan's power to strengthen you until you are fully alive and real."

"It will be tricky," Redtail added, "But possible," He turned his gaze to me, "This is your choice."

"Will I ever see Thunderclan again?" I asked, my voice was barely a whisper but they heard it before they got a chance to reply I continued, "Will I ever see Leafpool, Lionblaze, Jayfeather, Cinderheart… or any of my clanmates."

"Darkclan isn't manageable on its own so, for now, we will think about that." Windstar promised slowly and tilted head ever so slightly, "Do this for the five clans and even the cats suffering in Darkclan"

Another breeze shot through the clearing as I fluffed up my fur to give me a little warmth, "I don't know." I choked out.

Yellowfang looked ready to argue, Redtail looked at his paws and Whitestorm threw me an encouraging look

Lepordstar growled menacingly, "Why are we even doing this why not send a more formidable warrior than this mousebrain!"

Bluestar glared angrily at Lepordstar, "If I was in her paws I would do the exact same thing, if she does become a leader of this clan she will give her loyalty to them and them only!"

I shuffled my paws and darted my attention to the ground again, I was actually starting to like the idea, I could maybe even see Lionblaze and Cinderheart's kits, a small smile formed on my face, maybe I could even have kits of my own...

I shook my head slightly and turned to look back at the others who were discussing okay more like arguing over the situation.

"You're only taking her side because your friends." Lepordstar roared and started circling Bluestar.

"That is not true she has a lot of potentials to be a leader, definitely better than you ever were." Bluestar spat, a snarl bubbling at her lips.

"She-cats calm down!" Tallstar broke in, and pushed in between the bickering she-cats, "I'm willing to try any other solution if Hollyleaf doesn't want to do it."

"I'll do it!" I proclaimed bravely, I stepped forward and gathered my emotions, "But as long as I may see Thunderclan again, maybe even just for a moment."

Riverstar lifted his tail for silence as his and turned towards me, "You took the wiser choice." he insisted.

"I hope so…" I muttered.

"Well, I suggest you say goodbye to your friends." Russetfur ordered and without another word I turned tail to say goodbye to my friends here in Starclan. I saw Honeyfern staring at me, her eyes held sadness and anger which was not usually like her, I ran over and quickly I touched my nose a goodbye to her tiny pink one.

"Do you have to go," she pleaded, "We have been having so much fun an-."

I stuffed my tail in her mouth to keep her from going on.

"Would you rather see the clans destroyed? or watch me attempt and fail to catch a fish." I hissed but my face softened when I saw my friends face fall.

"Sorry." I apologized. I hadn't wanted to hurt my friend's feelings especially before I was leaving.

"It's fine," Honeyfern beamed, and instantly the frown disappeared and a wide grin replaced her face, "Beat all of those fox-hearts and show them they can't mess with Thunderclan!"

I looked at all of my friends I had made in my time here in Starclan, some were not even alive when I was in Thunderclan. Primrosepaw, Molepaw, Silverstream, Longtail, Mousefur, Shrewpaw, and others. Feathertail and Bluestar also became my really good friends

"It's your destiny." Silverstream added, her eyes were shadowed with worry but she had a kind smile on her face.

"You could even teach your clan how to fish." Feathertail chirped as she brushed pelts with me, "And we promise to watch you from here in Starclan and we will tell you if the conditions get worse."

"Good luck, " Longtail said from where he was sitting with Mousefur, his extremely long tail curled neatly over his paws. Mousefur gave a small nod to Hollyleaf and tossed her a rare smile, normally Hollyleaf would expect her to say hope you don't die before you get there or something snappier.

"Don't expect a smile often." Mousefur snapped, 'yup! back to normal.'

"I should get going. "I told them and heard my friends whisper their own goodbyes and good lucks. With a sigh, I threw a content smile to my friends for the last time for a while.

But when I looked back at the leaders and medicine cats a realized with a jolt of surprise, the gray flecked Tom, Ashfur was sitting next to Yellowfang. I felt a series of different emotions bubbling in me as I saw I Yellowfang beckon me with a flick of her tail.

"Hopefully you don't die before you manage to complete the prophecy," Yellowfang snorted.

'I knew someone would say that but I guess it was Yellowfang's turn' I thought with amusement.

"I believe you remember him." She stated and gestured with her tail, to the Tom sitting beside her.

"She killed me." He stated bluntly and I awkwardly looked down at my paws but he still stared at me with those emotionless, accusing green eyes.

"Hello to you to, Ashfur." I responded, trying to at least act polite but I felt the fur on my neck rise slightly.

"Try to sort things out at least." Yellowfang snapped, "I didn't drag you halfway the forest to just stand here and sulk." When we didn't react or make a move to talk to each other, Yellowfang looked between us grumpily, her tail lashing angrily, "You both have a chance to make things right and besides Ashfur will be very useful in the near future so settle things, NOW!" She added and with a huff and stalked a few paces away to clear some issues up with Firestar leaving me and Ashfur alone. Ashfur just kept staring at me so I decided to break the silence first.

"I'm sorry," I apologized hastily, "I didn't know what else to do and the truth is; when you were going to reveal the truth I thought me and my brothers would be exiled or the clans might attack us for having so many half clan cats and I just couldn't let that happen. My only choice was I had to kill you." I finished with a heavy sigh.

"You really think I could accept your apology, for killing me!?" Ashfur taunted and took a threatening step closer.

"You messed up just as much as I did and I thought you would at least I have the decency to admit that I messed up and killed you." I retorted angrily, tearing up the heather underneath my claws and sent a nasty glare Ashfur's way.

"You are only saying that because Yellowfang told you too but if you had the choice I know you would send me to the Dark forest immediately." He roared, "You're a foxheart just like the rest of your Dark forest cursed family."

"You know what I didn't want to do this at first but now I want to do something even worse" I snapped.

"Oh, really I bet you couldn't even hurt a fly or should I say a fox!" (Hollyleaf saved a fox when she was in the tunnels) Ashfur taunted, he bunched his muscles preparing to attack.

I sighed, I was sick of this, "Look Ashfur I don't want to waste my time on this frog brained feud, what happened is in the past and now we're in Starclan, I'm tired of this going on and on, aren't you?" I sheathed my claws and stood up and calmly licked my paws to distract myself from Ashfur's suspicious glare. Most of the cats stared in our direction and I was getting fairly uncomfortable.

Finally, I looked up from washing my paws as Ashfur sighed, "Honestly I don't want to either, I will always hate Squirrelflight and wish death upon her in my sleep," my eyes widened, "But I wish to finally let go, I-I a-m, sorry." Ashfur confessed.

I released a long sigh of relief.

'When I'm super angry I wish death upon her too sometimes...'

"Feels good to get that out." I commented, my tail tip continuously twitching.

"Yeah, agreed it does."

"Maybe if you stayed longer we could have been friends." He added, hopefully.

"I would like that." I replied and gave a half-hearted smile and slowly padded over to Moonpool where Firestar and the others waited for me patiently.

I cast one last glance at my friends. Feathertail gave me a puzzled glance and mouthed to me "What happened?"

I gave a quick grin and mouthed back, "Forgiveness." She gave a nod and quickly murmured something in Honeyfern's ear. I rolled my eyes irritatingly as Honeyfern gave me a cheeky grin and as I passed them, I hastily whispered "Ashfur just forgave me it's not like we became mates or anything." But still sent them a goodbye smile. I shuddered as I thought of me and Ashfur as mates.

'That's a terrible thought as much as I liked my new found friendship with Ashfur I would absolutely hate my life if we just became mates. Good thing Twolegs don't ship us.' (I know I don't)

I approached quicker as they started gathering around Moonpool but I stopped when I spot a very familiar pelt hidden by some clumps of ferns and Heather making it harder for me to identify the cat.

I narrowed my eyes. It was a ginger pelt with maybe some white spots and some brown flecks or maybe that was just the ferns and he had bright green eyes poking out from behind them. I thought he would call out to me, no I wanted him to call out to me and at least say goodbye so I waited a few moments and he said nothing, his eyes emotionless except for a hint of sadness.

A sigh escaped my lips and I quickly mouthed bye to him before I stepped closer towards Moonpool. I had this heartbroken pain in my heart as and I felt tears threatening to appear in my eyes.

'Why didn't he say something, at least he could have said goodbye…'

I quickly blinked the tears away and focused on Moonpool. My thoughts still wandered to why he didn't say anything.

'I haven't seen him in so long I thought we had something but if he doesn't even have the guts to say goodbye so be it!' Another harsh wind snapped me out of my thoughts and I look towards Windstar as she opened her mouth to speak.

"Hollyleaf, you can speed through the forest like any other Windclan cat, it runs through my veins and carries on through yours but make sure you know when to use this gift." She recited, ominously, usually I always knew what any prophecy would bring ever since I arrived at Starclan but now I was completely clueless, until it struck me.

"Wait... are you saying we share the same blood." I gasped in awe at Windstar.

"I am sure you are smart enough to figure that out." She claimed, and gave a wink. Behind Windstar, I saw Thunderstar give a nod of approval, that what Windstar had just said was correct.

I simply winked back and then I looked down at Moonpool, the reflection of countless stars shining back at my, its dark blue water flowing and the pool itself holding the many secrets of Starclan.

Shadowstar cleared her throat and I turned to look back up, "Before you leave know this if you ever do see the clans again do not tell them of what is to come understand?" she ordered.

I gave a nod of approval to Shadowstar and watched Firestar pad forth to sit directly in front of me. "Should we begin?" asked Firestar.

With a brief nod from Thunderstar, Firestar turned to me, "I'm glad we chose you to complete this task, you see ever since you were a kit I had been watching you and I knew that one day you may have the skills and leadership qualities to lead Thunderclan." Firestar praised, quietly.

My eyes widened and I accepted the praise with a simple nod.

"Don't overdo it Firestar." Bluestar scolded, loudly.

Behind me, I could hear cats yowling their final goodbyes and wishing me good luck.

"Good luck" Firestar said and he slowly reached his nose to touch to mine but over his shoulder I saw the same green eyes staring back at me with sadness deep in its depths but before I could say anything a shock of slight pain overtook me and all I could see was darkness.

Many images flashing in front of me, lightning fast, couldn't recognize any of them except for some. I saw two she-cats as opposite night and day. Five kits and two of them torn away from an unrecognizable gray queen. A golden she cat standing by the dark forest looking triumphantly over a gray tom. Two she-kits, one a pale ginger and the other a light brown tabby fighting mercilessly. Three siblings standing side by side in the middle of darkness. Finally, a queen dying leaving three kits by her belly and two hauntingly familiar green eyes.

Moonshine: Wow, that was pretty good especially for the authors first try so can we have a round of applause for...Zapberry!

Crowd applauses.

Moonshine: Anyway, at the end of each chapter, the whole crew will come back on stage.

Ivy: Not because we want to put on an entertaining fight because we need the reviews otherwise we get secretly tortured.

Moonshine: Yeah so come on back up Tigerstar and Ashfur!

the crowd applauds.

Both toms sit on their respective bean bags.

Ashfur: Don't you think I was great?

Moonshine: You were...interesting.

Tigerstar: She means you were terrible.

Ashfur glares angrily Tigerstar.

Ivy: Looks over at Holly and Hawkfrost's two empty seats.

Ivy: Is it me or do things go smoothly when they are at the hospital with some broken bones.

Tigerstar: It was your sister who started the last and final fight, hopefully.

Moonshine: Well, maybe you might start one too! and then ill blame you all I want!

Tigerstar: Want me to do that right now?

Tigerstar lifts up knife from behind his back.

Ashfur: Hey, how did you bring that on sta-

Screams are heard as the curtains close and the author herself takes over.

Sorry, I had to step in those guys were going to just simply fight for the rest of the night so let's get to the point.

If you liked the story post a review, even constructive criticism is helpful.

Also, I suggest you pay careful attention to the last paragraph if you continue to read this story.

One of the cats from the flashback is a Thunderclan cat can you guess which one?

When Hollyleaf was leaving starclan was it sad?

Do you know who the mystery Tom is?

Why did you Yellowfang Ashfur will be useful?

Should I fire Tigerstar for being for going on a murder spree?

Should I fire Hawkfrost for being useless?

Should I fire Hol- no can't fire her but should I hire someone new if so there is a poll on my profile that you can vote on and there are some options given

You guys can still submit OCs and there are 2-4 important character positions left if you want your character to be in scenes with the main character! I chose randomly :)
