Inferno of the Stars

by Creekflight

With no guidance from their ancestors, the clans are faced with decision to make- let Moonclan drive out their neighboring clans or join the fight against them. Lives and futures at stake, the decision is easy for some but dooming for others. The future is dark and uncertain. (Kinda AU with some new clans)

1. Introduction and Allegiances

Inferno of the Stars

Turmoil arises after the seven clans have lived in peace for many, many moons. The arrival of an ominous and powerful new band of cats, mockingly calling themselves Moonclan, stirs up an unrest. Deafening silence from their ancestral Starclan leaves them even more baffled. It isn't until a sudden and unprovoked attack on both Skyclan and Earthclan, neighbors and allies, the clans realize their futures may be gravely in danger. When the two clans are driven out of their territories deep in the midst of nightfall, a trend becomes apparent- has Starclan sent these cats to cleanse the region until only the four original clans remain? Fireclan is faced with an ultimatum, convince their fellow clans to join the impending fight with them or face the same fate as Skyclan and Earthclan.

Thunderclan, Riverclan, Windclan, and Shadowclan are as described in the novels. Skyclan has returned to live with them in a forest territory similar to Thunderclan's, albeit with taller trees and a gorge-like camp. Earthclan is a newer clan that has struggled to thrive in a territory with sparse vegetation and heavy brush. Fireclan is a clan that lives in caves and rocks, with a healing forested territory that suffered a devastating fire many moons ago. It is a clan of rebirth and brawn through the darkest of times.

(This story and the clans are loosely based on a RPG site that has since been taken down. Therefore, some of the characters are based on characters named by those who were part of the site, as well as some of the story lines!)
