When the snow fell on her head, Lilypelt realized her life was calm. Lilypelt was a tortoiseshell she cat with a missing ear. It was sliced off during a raid on her clan. She looked at the Pool. The ice was thin with cracks littering the sheet. Fish swam calmly.
"Hey, Lilypelt! Come over here!" another cat called. She whipped around, only to see Smokeleaf. She padded over to him.
"Is everything alright?" she mewed, questioning the tom.
"Yes, but we have a kit being born!"
"On my way! Why didn't you get here faster! Is Willowpelt alright?" she screamed at him over the sound of the wind, her fur bristling on end as if she were struck by lightning.
"Yes, Willowpelt is fine," he mewed, trying to calm her down.
They did not speak until they got back to the forest where their home of AquaClan resides.
AquaClan had a lake to the south, which in the winter froze over with ice. There is a forest to the north which has a sacred pool of crystal clear water. Medicine cats come to this pool to ponder things with StarClan. To the east is a plain which spans so far no cat has seen what lies on the other side. At the west is more of the forest and many foxlengths away lies a twolegplace. It is too far to be any trouble to the cats. When Lilypelt arrived back at camp, she saw Willowpelt outside of the queens den.
"Shouldn't you be having kits?!" She questioned, afraid for her safety.
Willowpelt was a smoky black she cat with stunning green eyes. Firestorm, the father of her kits was always hunting, but was here with Willowpelt now. He was an orange tom with blue eyes.
"No, it was just some bad pains. The kits are fine. Sorry for the close call. Morningstar can sure scream loud if Smokeleaf heard her!" Willowpelt laughed.
"Please return to the den. I think I should go talk to Morningstar anyway," Lilypelt mewed. She padded over to the leaders den and spots her leader sleeping. It was getting late and Lilypelt decided it was a better idea just to go to her den and sleep there. In her sleep StarClan came to her. She saw a bright light and she was standing atop a rock with cats at the bottom. All of them looked happy and cheerful. One cat climbed up on the rock with her. She looked just like Lilypelt. "Who are you?" Lilypelt asked.
"I am your ancestor from the beginning of this clan. We were once FireClan, but we soon broke apart. Ashfur was the last of the clan. The clan was made of loners and rouges at one point, and once they disbanded, he set off to make a new Clan. AquaClan soon thrived and here is your clan today. FireClan has now become a band of evil cats. They attack Clans, and destroy them as they have been doing for many moons. They have taken down ThunderClan, ShadowClan, WindClan, as well as RiverClan. I came from ThunderClan and I was their medicine cat for many moons, until Ashfur- or as I knew him, Ash- and I had a forbidden relationship. That is when we left and formed FireClan. My name is Lilystar. I am you mother's mother's mother," explained the cat.
"Why are you telling me this?" Lilypelt asked.
"FireClan is coming for your clan. When the snow stops falling and the waves stop coming, the fight for your clan will begin. It will not come in the form of cats with claws and teeth. Just know they are coming." stated Lilystar.
All of the cats at the ground disappeared, and a lake of blood was there to replace it. In the center was a small island of struggling cats. Soon she wakes up and is very afraid of what will come next. How will her clan survive she wonders. It was the middle of the night and she was hungry. She got a squirrel and chewed on it to think things over. She doesn't know what to do. She falls back to sleep in her den, too tired to think.
This is a story based on a one-shot i wrote called StarClans punishment. If you read that it will explain who Lilystar is and FireClan as well.
