Chapter 1
Being a Breeze clan cat.
"Hello kits. I suppose you want to hear a story. What's that Owlkit? You want to hear about how the clans begun? Oh well, that happened thousands of years ago. Yet, we still hold peace. Very well. I will tell you the story of the clans.
First off, there are 5 clans. They are, Lightning Clan, protectors of the skies, holders of lightning and storms. If you ever see a very bad thunderstorm, you can bet it's got something to do with Lightning Clan.
There is also Dark Clan. They are the guardians of the darkness. Why do you think most cats are afraid of the dark? They also are the keepers of the dead. Their connection with Sky Clan is the clearest. They can also summon the dead. Say, a loved one.
Breeze Clan. Yes, yes that is the clan you are in right now Tanglekit. We are the protectors of wind. We can control the wind. We are also very swift, but sadly, we cannot fly. But say your battling, just summon wind to blow your enemies away.
Water Clan. The warriors of water. Many call them fish, for they can breathe underwater. They can also summon water. Ever heard of a tsunami? You can bet Water Clan cats have something to do with that.
Dawn Clan, the gentle, but threatening. These cats are, um, "eco friendly". The grass is on there side I should say. Have you ever seen protectors come back to camp wounded with poison? Dawn Clan cats can summon poisonous vines, and many other plants, or trees.
And last, our ancestors, Sky Clan. Have you ever seen a cat shaped as a cloud? Or how bright the stars shine in the sky? Those are them, watching over us. Some say that the sun and the moon are Sky Clan's leader, Starfire. Yes, Owlkit, Starfire does exist, but soon, her time will be up, and she will have to move on to a place Sky Clan doesn't even know of.
What's that? You think that once you're in Sky Clan, you're home free? Sadly, no. Very old Sky Clan cats dissolve, and move onto a life that you live in for all eternity.
Ok, ok, I'll tell the story now, Tanglekit!
A fierce battle raged. Young Stripefur, was bleeding terribly, and his friend was no better. "Don't worry, it's almost over!" Stripefur had whispered to his unconscious friend. "Whatcha doin scaredy- cats!" A Water Clan cat sneered. Now remember kits, the clans in this age did not yet know of their powers they held within.
Stripefur looked helplessly at the Water Clan warrior. He didn't know what do to. Then (the story says what he feels) he felt a tug in his gut. His green eyes turned yellow.
And, a lightning was summoned on a clear, blue-sky day. The lightning struck the cat. A few seconds later, he lay dead. "Riverheart!" an ear-splitting yowl came. Stripefur, shocked at what he had done, fled, and was never seen again.
Little did he know, he brought the clans peace. How did he bring the clans peace you say Tanglekit? Well, no one knows for sure. After the battle, the clans never fought again.
Maybe training? Trying to find their inner power for all these years? The battle was thousands of years ago. No one knows when the peace is going to break.
A couple of protectors came back today, going on about the tension between The Water Clan and Dark Clan cat.
Now, go to sleep little ones. And remember, eat those herbs so the Dark Clan cats can't haunt your dreams.
