In the final battle, the dark forest won. No cats died but the dark forest is seeking revenge. Every year there is now a forest games where four cats from each clan, including starclan, battle it out to find the best fighter. Two she-cats and two toms from each clan fight it out to the death. But can the dark forest be stopped? Is what should be random rigged?

Hi guys! I know I kind of gave up my last story and I'm sorry if anyone is disappointed. I just had a lot to do and I went on holiday and all that, so I sort of forgot about it. But I hope you enjoy this story that I've been wanting to do for quite a while, and just finally got around to! please R&R and enjoy!

Prologue

Two cats padded into the clearing. One was a dark tabby tom with amber eyes and the other was a scarred tortoiseshell she-cat.

"So, who are we going to pick for this year's forest games?" asked the tortoiseshell.

"Mapleshade, Quite a few cats have been driving me crazy this last moon and I haven't chosen yet. just give me a bit more time," meowed the dark tabby.

"Ok, but Tigerstar, you only have a half-moon to decide," whispered Mapleshade.

"I know. I'll choose as quickly as I can," murmured Tigerstar in reply. "I do have my eyes on some cats. I'm thinking of..." his voice quivered for a moment. "I smell cats!" he murmured urgently. Mapleshade sniffed the air.

"I smell them too!" she meowed."tell me at the dark forest!". With that she ran off, leaving Tigerstar alone in the clearing.

The cats came running into the clearing. It was the hunting patrol Tigerstar had sent out earlier. Breezepelt, the leader of the patrol, nodded at him and ran past, along with Hollowflight, Blossomfall and Beetlewhisker. Tigerstar ran back to the Thunderclan camp. As he entered the camp, everyone in the clearing flinched. they all knew what came next. Tigerstar leapt up onto the highledge. "May all cats old enough to kill their own victims join beneath the highledge!" He yowled. every cat walked over to the highledge. even the kits and the elders. "As you know, The Forest Games is starting in a half-moon!" he yowled. Every cat in the clearing flinched. "I want to remind you of the forest game rules! Cats who are chosen must compete in the games, even if they are a kit or an elder! Injured cats have no excuse not to compete! If a leader is chosen, all of their lives except one will be taken, so they are no stronger than the others!" he sneered at this. Every cat knew he wanted Firestar dead. "And finally, the winner of the forest games gets to choose... Be one of us and never have to compete again, living in luxury with no worries, or, stay here with no assurance that you will not have to compete again, watching your clanmates and family die... Your choice!" he yowled before leaping of highledge and padding out of camp.
