Hello and welcome! This is my very first Warriors fanfic and inspired in the most stupid way possible! So I was thinking about Tigerstar and how he became evil because of his mentor Thistleclaw, when I thought of what could happen if Bluestar had been his mentor instead, and this story was born! It will go through at least the first arc, though I might do the other arcs as well, just with major changes. I mean, no one ever does a story in which Tigerstar isn't evil and I wanted to change that! So here it is!

Prologue

Inside the Leader's Den of ThunderClan, the new leader, Sunstar, sat completing the apprenticeship of a certain dark tabby tom kit. He already had two cats in mind, but the problem lay in deciding. Bluefur, while still grieving the death of her sister Snowfur, was a good and dependable warrior. Thistleclaw, while a strong warrior for sure, had only just become a warrior and, as an apprentice, struck the ThunderClan leader as a warrior who fights whenever he gets the chance, no matter the reason. The choice really was about who would shape the kit into a good, strong warrior. He suddenly stood and started pacing within the den, tail lashing something fierce. This was a decision that could affect the very future of ThunderClan. Just as suddenly as he started, he stopped, his mind hitting one conclusion: Thistleclaw couldn't, shouldn't, ever have an apprentice, so that he may never have a chance at deputyship.

Besides, Sunstar thought, laying back down on his nest, I did somewhat promise her an apprentice earlier. It's high time she had one, especially since she's finally realizing that her Clan still needs her.

Okay, so, it's short. Yes I know that. I'm making to where Thistleclaw never had a shot at being deputy. Also, since, in canon, Bluefur was Frostpaw's mentor, I'm going to need your help in deciding who will be her mentor in this story. So please, read and review and tell me what you think!
