I heard the crash of thunder as I sat alone in the nursery with my four kits. I won't lie... I'm very worried for them. If they have a life like mine...

I wasn't the only queen in the nursery. Honeymoon who was once my apprentice had two kits of her own. Patchkit and Featherkit were a handful alright. Nightfur spent most of the day with her..., and I am a bit jealous. I have been waiting for my beloved since I had my kits, but... he hasn't shown yet.

So, I decided to name them myself. My eldest kit was a tom; his name is Skykit. I wanted to name him after my beloved. My next kit was a she-kit named Hazelkit. She inherited my beloved's brown eyes. Sharpkit was next; she had very sharp claws...tiny but sharp. And finally there is my youngest kit. She...looked different than the rest. It's not like me and my siblings different. All she had was a different colored pelt. I haven't decided on a name for her yet. It was just too exhausting right now.

"Good morning Robinstar," Honeymoon yawned. My head shot up I panic, but I eventually realized who it was. I wrapped my tail around my kits and let out a sigh of relief.

"It's only moon-high," I said. She blinked slowly at me.

"Oh...," she meowed. I could tell that she was embarrassed, but she seemed to put it aside. "Have you named her yet?" she asked. I sighed and shook my head. Truth is that I wanted my beloved to name her, but I don't think he's coming. She seemed like she didn't know what to say. "Well, perhaps you should think of something then," she meowed.

"Thanks," I huffed. I looked down on my little kit. She looks like Eaglepaw. I shook my head and growled. I swore that I wouldn't think about him ever again. She had a long brown pelt that resembled mine, but the color...is like Eaglepaw's.

I want her to have an important name, but I have no idea what to name her. Suddenly an idea hit me. I wanted to name her for something I never had as a kit. I gave nuzzled her head with an endless amount of affection. "Hopekit,"I whispered. I know it's not the greatest name, but there was something special about her.


Chapter 1

"Hopekit do you want to play?" My best friend asked. I shook my head no. He groaned and sat down next to me. "What do you want to do then," he asked.

"Can we just sit and talk?" I asked. He rolled his eyes but nodded anyways. I gave him a sad glance. "Aren't you becoming an apprentice soon?" I asked. I could faintly hear him purring.

"Yep! Any day now. ...I'll miss you though," he sighed. I glanced at my friend in wonder.

"You make it out to be as if it's your final farewell," I meowed. "Besides I'm only a moon younger than you." Wonder why he seems so sad?

"Yeah I know, but it wont be the same," he replied. I rolled my eyes and suppressed a chuckle. My friend worried about the smallest of things.

"Quit worrying about it. Soon we'll both be apprentices and warriors... Well I'll be a warrior, cause I know that you want to be Oakshine's apprentice," I mewed. My ears drooped at the thought. "I have nothing against medicine cats, but you do know that's a lot to give up. You wont be able to have a mate or kits." He gave me a small smile.

"I know that, but that's the path I want to take," he meowed. I sighed. I knew he wanted it, but I was worried for him.

"I know. I just we could be warriors together," I meowed. I know my mother would too. Now that I think about it...we'll still be clan mates. "Anyway, it's my mother's decision in the end. I know that she'll make the right choice.

"Let all old enough to train, join benieth Rockpile for a clan meeting," My mother yowled. Why is she calling a clan meeting? I walked over with Patchkit to see what she wanted. She looked...troubled.

"I'm sure that most of you know already...our decline in land," she meowed. Decline of land. "Both Thunderclan and Riverclan have been taking territory from us, and it will not go on any longer!" she yowled.

"We'll take it back!" the clan cheered. I looked around at my clan mates in slight fear. Do we really need to start a war over this?

"We've lost enough warriors to Thunderclan, but now we can get our revenge," Graveljaw hissed. Robinstar gave him a funny look, but she didn't say anything about it.

"Shadowclan has very few warriors now, and at the rate it's going there wont be a Shadowclan left. At the gathering tonight we'll make our statement, but this is a promise comrades...in two moons we'll attack Riverclan. We have one goal and that is to steal their kits," she growled. Steal their kits! Is she mad? No cat protested, but I guess that's understandable.

"On another note, I think two apprentices are ready to become warriors. Ratpaw, Mousepaw please step forwards," she mewed. The two brown apprentices moved forward in shock. "Today I would like the arrival of tow new warriors. I pry to Starclan that we have two loyal warriors ready to join. Ratpaw, Mousepaw do you promise to stick to the warrior code and protect you clan?"

"I do," the meowed instantly.

"Then by the powers of Starclan I give you your warrior names. Ratpaw from now on you'll be known as Ratclaw, Shadowclan is happy to have you. Mousepaw from this moment on you will be know as Mouseleap. It doesn't matter that you two are from Skyclan, Shadowclan is honored to have you," she purred.

"Ratclaw, Mouseleap!" the clan roared. I looked around at my clan in awe.

Is this a good thing? ...Taking kits from another clan...why would mom say that?
