Broken Diamond

Xx I do not own the wonderful warrior cat series nor some cats in this as they are the Erin's and my friend's xX

-Cuz I'm feeling in a writey mood, I'm going to combine the short prologue and chapter one-

Prologue-

To avoid confusion due to an important event being skipped I'll explain it real quick. Featherwing and Stormcloud became mates (Hawkkit mentioned this near the end of Battle of the Stars). The two mates left the forest for a while after they purposely exiled themselves and brought Skyclan with them to the lake. Owlstep became Owlstar, Darkwave (Featherwing's 'evil' brother) became Darkstar and Featherwing became Featherstar. Blah, blah, blah I could talk about this ALL day but let's just get to the real story shall we?

Chapter 1- New destiny

It was a quiet day in camp, all was calm. It was a nice clear day, one of those days you'd just want to curl up and go to sleep. No one was worried; there was plentiful prey, no sickness, well at least everyone EXCEPT Darkstar. He was pacing around the floor in his den angrily muttering

"He thinks he can just go and become leader just cuz he brought a clan here? I worked hard all my life to get here!"

"Why don't you plan a surprise for your brother?" Darkstar's deputy Typhoon yawned not realizing what he had just asked

Darkstar tilted his head slightly "Hm, yes. Great idea Typhoon! I'll need all of my warriors. The only ones allowed to stay behind are the elders, Kestrelflight, my mate Rainstep, and the kits."

"Wait a minute. What gave you that crazy idea? Plus, what about Summerwind?"

"What about her?"

"She just had kits!"

Darkstar rolled his eyes "I knew that, geez I'm not an idiot."

"Sure you aren't." Typhoon challenged

Darkstar glared at his deputy before continuing "That's why Rainstep will stay behind with the kits."

"I wonder about your logic sometimes."

The next day was overcast, a chill in the air. The oldest of Summerwind's three kits, Riotkit, watched the patrol march out of sight and asked

"Is mom and dad going to be alright?"

Hailkit raised his head sleepily and yawned "Don't you think you're worrying?"

The youngest whispered "Mommy and daddy will never watch us grow up."

Riotkit turned to her younger sister and growled "What's that supposed to mean?"

"When the first chill enters the air it means that summer will end and soon. By time a whispered night becomes day you can never get that night back."

Hailkit's dark blue eyes widened "Diamondkit why must you say such things!"

Diamondkit paused and turned to her brother glowing slightly "Starclan chose to warn me. Mom and dad will be the only deaths in today's battle."

"Who would do such a thing?" The 2 siblings whimpered

"A cat named Wintersky; he's the one who'll kill mom." Diamondkit paused "What is opposite of summer? That would be winter. Who'll kill dad you ask? That would be Daysong. The opposite of night is day."

"Daysong and Wintersky…" Hailkit softly repeated

"Oh don't be ridiculous!" Rainstep's kit, Silverkit, mewed "Diamondkit is just crazy and overreacting!"

Riotkit narrowed her violet colored eyes and warned "You ever say anything like that about my sister again; you'll never see another day!"

Silverkit whimpered "MOM! Riotkit is scaring me!"

Rainstep hissed "You should be ashamed!"

"Rainstep, do us all a favor and go die in a hole!" Riotkit muttered

Hailkit looked worried "Riotkit! You know you need to respect your elders; that includes both Silverkit AND Rainstep."

Riotkit chucked slightly "Since when have I ever respected others?"

Diamondkit smiled slightly "That is why you are called Riotkit."

"True, true!" Hailkit agreed

"You are going to learn respect or else!" Rainstep yelled "One day you must listen to commands or you will die."

"You say something? All I heard was blah, blah, blah respect." Riotkit said rolling her eyes

Silverkit whimpered "She's scary."

Rainstep narrowed her eyes "One day you'll pay for what you said!"

Hailkit angrily yowled "Are you threating us?"

Rainstep nodded "I swear you'll pay dearly."

"Ha! Like you'll ever could hurt us!" Riotkit scoffed

The next day the patrol came back badly beaten. Darkstar had a torn ear and Typhoon had a gash on his side. Just about everyone was in this kinda sorry state. Darkstar leaped onto the tall rock and called out

"We epicly failed!"

"No, duh." Riotkit muttered

"We lost two warriors; Summerwind and Nightwhisper."

"WHAT?" Riotkit and Hailkit shrieked

"I knew it." Diamondkit sadly whispered

Riotkit then suggested that they shouldn't listen to those who tried to pull rank on them. One day when the kits were out playing a rouge attacked them. However he backed off when the three kits fought back. Hailkit got a wound from where he hit a sharp pointed rock and Riotkit got a tear on her tail and ear. Diamondkit, perhaps, got hurt the most. She had a tear on her underbelly and a scratch, which if Riotkit didn't save her, would've slashed her heart and killed her. Riotkit and Hailkit barely managed to guide her into the medicine cat den before Diamondkit collapsed painfully on the ground. Krestalflight took one glance and immediately got into panic mode

"Oh my Starclan! Why are you hurt? Why is Diamondkit half dead? Why are you all hurt? Why-"

Riotkit smacked Krestalflight and shouted "PULL IT TOGETHER! A stupid rouge attacked and now were here, so shut up and help her!"

Kestrelflight nodded "Oh. Poor kits, first the incident and now this."

Riotkit and Hailkit were patched up in no time. Krestalflight had stated that Diamondkit was still in serious condition and could not leave the medicine cat den. Diamondkit was fast asleep by time Krestalflight softly walked out of the den and looked up at the clear, moonless night. The softly sparkling stars twinkled, practically the only light. He lifted his head towards the stars, the scene reflecting in his bright green eyes. He had many questions and not many answers. One star, much brighter than the others shone true.

"That's odd." Krestalflight muttered "What could that mean?"
