Cinderstar377 here! But this is mostly written by Snowstar.

Snowstar: Really?! We're the same people!

Cinderstar: We DO have different names though- and like, on roblox, your Snowstar377.

Snowstar: True...

Cinderstar: We want to rebuild a clan! And you bet Jayfeather will be in it! :D

Cinderstar377: So yeah, read on... this takes place right after the last hope, of course. I loved The Last Hope.

Prologue Time!

The flames licked hungrily at the stone hollow. Everywhere cats were fleeing and trying to take their loved ones with them. One cat pushed one cat to safety right before he was engulfed by fire.

Another cat was blindly rushing through the heat and smoke- but he was so used to confusion this was the easiest challenge for him. He weaved through injured cats, letting them guide him a little, and finally found one she-cat who was dragging herself through the thorn barrier.

She stopped when she saw him. "Jayfeather," she coughed, "I can't make it! Just let me die!"

The blind tom stopped. "No, Brairlight- I'm not letting anyone die. Now move yourself before I push you up!" he retorted.

"But Graystripe is d-dead." Brairlight weakly protested. Jayfeather remembered in a flash the scent of a tom pushing a she-cat to the High Ledge before he fell into the fire- Graystripe and Millie.

"It's okay- Millie is still alive!" A gray she-cat mewed from beside Jayfeather. She ran over to Brairlight and pushed her up through the thorns and out of camp, where Brairlight fell next to a holly bush, safe and sound.

Another she-cat, also gray, looked back at the camp, then at Jayfeather, ears pricked. Then she let out a gasp.

"Jayfeather," she breathed, "Leafpool and Bramblestar are dead!"

Many miles away, over the mountains and next to a small Twoleg place, lightning had struck. A brown tabby she-cat's amber eyes flashed.

"Billystorm," she called out. A brown tom raced up from beside her. "Get Sharpclaw and move some branches out of the way so we can escape!"

Billystorm wheezed. "No, Leafstar- Sharpclaw is dead, saving our kits. Now we have to escape!"

Leafstar's eyes grew wide. "No...Sharpclaw..."

Billystorm ran down the ledge they were on and scooped up three apprentices, carrying one and nudging the other two to Leafstar. "Harrypaw, Firepaw, Stormpaw, get up to Leafstar!" he ordered.

Firepaw and Stormpaw quickly obeyed, but Harrypaw slipped on some rocks and started to fall. "Help!" he screeched.

Leafstar yowled, "No! Harrypaw!" and lunged for him, but Billystorm was faster. Just as he was about to grab Harrypaw's pelt, a shape knocked into Billystorm, causing Harrypaw to fall into the flames, where he died.

Billystorm glared at the shape. "Cherrytail! Why?!"

Cherrytail looked at him, sorrow in her eyes from her dead mate. "You would have died too..."

Billystorm looked at the ledge, which started to crumble where he was moments before. "Are we the only survivors?"

Leafstar shook her head. "Echosong and Sparrowpelt were helping Ebonyclaw...right before Sparrowpelt fell into the smoke and collapsed from breathing too much in. He's dead, Cherrytail, I'm sorry.

Cherrytail let out a wail. "But only one of my kits survived! The other three fell too!" As she spoke, a small brown tabby that looked just like Sharpclaw scramled up the ledge, followed by Ebonyclaw, Waspwhisker, and Echosong.

"Were all that's left of Skyclan," Leafstar rasped. But then Nettlesplash, Tinycloud, and Fallowfern ran out of a cave and to them, Tinycloud and Nettlesplash looking at eachother with love in their eyes.

"Clovertail is by your den, Leafstar," Fallowfern told the leader.

Leafstar nodded. "Billystorm, Tinycloud- go find her but don't split up."

As the two raced into the smoke, panting, Leafstar looked down at a very scared Stormpaw and Firepaw.

"What will we do?" Fallowfern asked. Echosong nodded weakly behind her, her apprentice Frecklewish had also died.

"We must go to the clans." Leafstar replied, tail waving in the air. "They will help us."

Shadowclan territory was up in flames- but the pines were very durable and almost none fell. Right before he too died, Blackstar had led Littlecloud, Tawnypelt, Tigerheart, and Rowanfur to Riverclan territory, which wasn't in flames. But as they watched, all but very few cats survived a flood that had happened there- Mistystar dragging Icecloud and Reedwhisker out, who was leading two other toms- Pouncepelt and Pebblefoot. The two clans banded together and looked to Windclan.

Windclan had a Twoleg invasion three moons before, and now the struggling clan had six members left- Kestrelflight, Swallowtail, Heathertail, Crowfeather, Whitecloud, and Boulderpaw. But the flood and fire had reached two parts of the territory, killing off Swallowtail and Boulderpaw and Kestrelflight. After Riverclan and Shadowclan met with them, they went to Thunderclan territory a half-moon later.

Hoped you liked it! :)

Lots of cats in the Skyclan time- Patchpelt, Bouncefire, etc. - have died over time so now I don't feel as bad as making some cats die.

But I'm still sad I made Sharpclaw die.

Yeah I know there's a whole bunch of these out right now but this has Skyclan in it! Are there any others like that? I have NO idea...so...
