A/N Yes, I know that this story doesn't quite have a matching name, but I couldn't think of anything else. Well here goes- Prologue.
Tigerclaw and Fireheart were fighting with each other viciously.
"I hate you Fireheart!" yelled Tigerclaw.
"I hate you too!" Fireheart yelled back.
Both cats attempted a death blow on the other, but both were a little off. They fell to the ground, greatly injured, and staring at each other with hatred.
They lay their heads down quite soon and passed out.
StarClan looked down upon the two. All the warriors there agreed that they must be punished for how they had meant to break the warrior code, but showed a little mercy. A test would be the perfect thing.
StarClan changed their forms and teleported the two to another world, where they would be tested. Afterward, they decided to send other cats to help them in their test, and went to speak with the leader of Firehearts and Tigerclaws clan
Bluestar heard StarClans calling and allowed them to speak.
"Bluestar," they started. "Tigerclaw and Fireheart were fighting. They both meant to kill." At this Bluestar gasped but allowed StarClan to go on.
"We changed their form and transported them to a different world where they will have no choice but to uphold the warrior code and work with one another. We need someone to guide them and have chosen you, Graystripe, and Sandstorm."
"That many?" Bluestar asked in awe.
"Yes. This new world has plenty of room. You three will go to the moonstone at moonhigh so you can get there at sunhigh."
"Sunhigh? But I thought we were only supposed to be there at moonhigh," Bluestar complained.
"Well, today is the exception. You will tell your clan that you will be away for a few days with Fireheart, Tigerclaw, Graystripe, and Sandstorm; and that you are leaving someone else in charge."
"If you're sureā¦" Bluestar said. And with that StarClan left her to do as she was told.
Bluestar jumped onto the Highrock and said loudly, "Let us all cats old enough to catch our own prey gather beneath the Highrock."
As soon as everybody was there, Bluestar started to speak. "StarClan has ordered me to go on a journey to Mothermouth, and to take Tigerclaw, Fireheart, Graystripe, and Sandstorm. Fireheart and Tigerclaw are already away from the camp, waiting for me. I will be gone for a long time, a week at the very least, so you will need a temporary leader." The crowd gasped, but Bluestar ignored them and went on.
"Whitestorm will be leader, and his deputy will be Brackenfur. And remember, even if they are only temporary leaders, you still have to listen to them as you would listen to me. It is nearly moonhigh. I must leave now to get to Mothermouth at sunhigh." Another gasp of shock and confusion rose from the crowd.
Bluestar answered their unsaid question by saying, "I know it is strange to be there at sunhigh, but StarClan has commanded it. I am just as confused as you are, but I will obey them and leave now."
"It's true!" said a raised voice. It was Cinderpelt. "I heard it!" Bluestar gave her a look that pleaded that she would say nothing about Tigerclaw and Fireheart, and Cinderpelt gave Bluestar a look that said that she wouldn't.
Nobody could disagree with the medicine cat.
Bluestar jumped down from the Highrock and beckoned to Graystripe and Sandstorm with her tail.
"Let's get our traveling herbs and be on our way," she whispered. Graystripe and Sandstorm nodded their agreement.
The trio went to Cinderpelt's den, grabbed their herbs, quickly ate them, and rushed out of the camp.
A/N Whew! Glad that's over! On to the next chapter.
