Prologue
Clawstar lay in his nest, nibbling at a mouse. He sighed and rolled over, but sat straight up as a brown tom entered his den
"Clawstar!" The tom said, sounding urgent.
"What is it Eagleheart?" He replied to the younger tom
"The patrol has returned, Pinestorm is dead." Eagleheart said solemnly. Clawstar felt the ground crumble beneath him. How could his friend have died? He was so young!
"What happened?" He said, swallowing the bile that had risen in his throat
"I don't know, Foxfoot is too shocked to say anything, but whatever happened it must have been pretty bad." Eagleheart said sadly. Clawstar felt sorry for the young warrior, Foxfoot had always been the nervous type, and having to watch a cat die must have been horrible.
He stood up and padded out of his den, leaving the remains of his mouse.
"Where is he?" He asked Eagleheart.
"With Nightwing and Lilypaw in the medicine den."
As Clawstar walked to the medicine den he remembered all of the training sessions he had had with Pinestorm, his friend, his apprentice, his son. It felt unrealistic that he could be dead. He walked past Ashpelt and turned his head.
"Does anyone know where the body is?" He asked Ashpelt
"Yes, it's by fourstones, by the Shadowclan border. Do you want me to lead a patrol to retrieve it?" She asked, sympathy in her gaze.
"Yes." He gulped down the sadness in his throat
The young gray warrior swept her tail sympathetically along his flank as she walked off to find cats for her patrol. Clawstar ducked through the gorse tunnel that led into the medicine cat den, Eagleheart following him.
"How is he?" He asked the medicine cat
"Bad, worse than we thought." Nightwing meowed, dismay in her voice
Clawstar looked at the poor young warrior, lying in his nest and crouched beside him slowly, not wanting to scare him
"Can you tell us what happened?" He said with a low voice
"Attack..." Foxfoot gasped. Clawstar clenched his jaws but forced himself to stay calm
"Who?" He asked calmly
"ShadowClan..."
AN: This is my first story/fic that I'm posting on the interwebz, I would love if someone could review! Keep in mind that I am still a beginner at writing so hopefully it will get better in the future.
I've been planning to write this story since before I started reading warriors, which was about 2 years ago. Since I only had a vague idea about how warriors worked back then the story has changed quite a lot, for example, the Clans were supposed to be called LightningClan, MountainClan, StreamClan and WeatherClan (sheesh) haha I was so horrible at this...
Well, I don't know how to finish these AN's so... Enjoy?
Ps. I don't know how often I will update, but maybe once a week at first or else I will become exhausted and stop updating all together.
Pps. This is extremely short, future chapters will be longer.
